Rebirth of the era of struggle

Chapter 557 Playing Chess
"Student Xiaoyu, may I ask, what do Professor Lu and your mother like?"

After thinking for a long time, Lu Yang didn't decide what to buy, so he still called Lu Xiaoyu.

"Boss... why are you asking this?"

During the phone call, Lu Xiaoyu was very surprised.

I guess I don't understand why Lu Yang is suddenly concerned about this matter.

Lu Yang explained: "Just now Lu Xiaobai called me and said that your mother asked me to go to your house for dinner at noon. This is the first time I'm here, so it's not good to go there without bringing some gifts."

"My mother asked you to come to my house?"

Student Xiaoyu was obviously shocked.

"Yeah, I just called."

Lu Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "It's a bit strange. What did my mother tell you to do? Boss, you don't need to bring anything. If it's really not possible, just buy some fruit..."

"Just buy some fruit, isn't it too simple? Teacher Lu helped a lot when the children went to school." Lu Yang still remembered this matter.

If Lu Baohua's quota had not been used, Doudou would not have been able to enter the primary school attached to HKUST.

Although it has been a long time, Lu Yang still feels that he should be thankful.

"It's really not necessary. It's already at this point now, and you won't have time to buy it after talking about it. It would be bad if you are late... You go and see first... If... If, what my mother tells you, you don't want to buy it." Take it to heart."

During the phone call, Lu Xiaoyu didn't know what he thought of, and he specifically asked.

"What can Auntie say?"

Lu Yang smiled.

He said: "That's fine, I'll listen to you, just buy some fruit, if the gift your mother dislikes is too shabby, then you have to explain it to me."

"No, no, don't worry."

"Okay, let's do this first..."

hang up the phone.

Lu Yang went directly to Ximen's fruit stand.

There happened to be a small market outside the school, and there were several fruit shops in it. Lu Yang went there, picked the best red Fuji apples, bought a bag, and filled a few catties of mangoes before checking out and leaving.

Taking the campus bus to the staff apartment, and getting off with fruit, Lu Yang looked up.

He remembered what Lu Xiaoyu said.

Her house is on the third floor.

As for which unit he was in, Lu Yang sent Lu Xiaoyu back several times, so he naturally remembered it clearly.

"Uncle, here..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Yang looked up again.

Upstairs, the window that was closed just now was half opened, and Lu Xiaobai was upstairs waving to him. Hearing her name, Lu Yang was speechless. It was so difficult that Lu Xiaoyu's mother called him over, thinking that he and What happened to his daughter?
It seems that I will have to explain it later.

Lu Yang also waved his hand, then walked into the unit building and went up the stairs.

third floor.

Lu Xiaobai came out of the room.

He bluffed and said, "Grandma, here we come."

"Why are you so surprised, who is here?"

Mother Lu was choosing vegetables in the kitchen when she heard Lu Xiaobai's voice and came out.

"It's uncle, uncle is here."

Lu Xiaobai said excitedly.

Lu Baolin was talking to a girl. When he heard this, he turned around and looked at it. That girl was very beautiful. If Lu Yang was here, he would definitely recognize her. Isn't this the one from the elective class before? Is that literary youth Xia Wei?

After Lu Xiaobai finished speaking, he ran over excitedly and opened the door, then stood at the door and waited.

Xia Wei looked out the door in surprise.

She knew that Professor Lu had a son and a daughter. The daughter was born later and should not be very old. She didn't expect that the husband had already been found.

"Teacher, there are guests at your house today, I'd better go back first, and come to disturb you another day."

Xia Wei hesitated and got up.

She came here specially to visit Professor Lu today. She originally said she would stay for dinner, but she didn't expect that there were guests at the other party's house. The son-in-law came to the door. That was a distinguished guest. Xia Wei felt that it was not good for her to be here.

"What is this? Didn't you agree to stay for lunch? Uncle, don't listen to the children talking nonsense. You actually know the guest at noon."

Lu Baohua took a sip of the tea leaves on the table and said.

"I know it too?"

Xia Wei was a little puzzled.

In any case, she couldn't think of who that person was, but judging by Lu Baohua's appearance, it seemed that she was not going to say anything in advance, so Xia Wei looked outside the door, wanting to see who the person was.

After a moment.

Lu Xiaobai's voice came from outside the door.

"Uncle, you are finally here, why did you bring fruit, this apple is so big..."

talking room.

The two walked over together.

Lu Xiaobai seemed to be welcoming the guests, but he didn't even mention the fruit. Instead, he was holding a big bright red apple, which she picked out of the bag just now.

Change to someone else.

This may be called lack of quality, but Lu Xiaobai's actions will never make people feel that way.

On Xia Wei's side, after seeing the people who came in clearly, she was also shocked.

Lu Yang...

She didn't expect that the guest of Professor Lu's house, the uncle that the little girl was talking about, turned out to be Lu Yang...how could it be...

Xia Wei admitted that she had a crush on Lu Yang before...

After all, there is no girl who doesn't like such a versatile and handsome boy, but she was directly rejected by Lu Yang. Last time at the movie theater, she also saw Lu Yang's pregnant girlfriend, so she didn't think about it any more. something happened.

But did not expect.

We met again at Professor Lu's home today.

"Mr. Lu, Auntie, hello..." Lu Yang greeted each other kindly, and then put the fruit on the dining table.

"Come to the teacher's place for dinner, what fruit do you bring?"

Lu Baohua looked at the fruit and scolded.

"Yes, Lu Yang, you don't have to be polite when you come to Auntie's house, just treat it as your own home." Mother Lu was also very kind, she looked Lu Yang up and down, and felt quite satisfied.

This young man is good-looking, young and rich, and worthy of his own daughter.

Although the academic qualifications are a bit short, it looks better than Zhang Hao's doctoral students with eyes above the top.

Looking at Lu Xiaobai who was gnawing on an apple, Lu's mother glared at her and said, "Lu Xiaobai, you are not polite at all. When the guest arrives, you can eat it. Come and help..."

Lu Xiaobai walked into the kitchen aggrieved.

Lu Yang smiled, looked at Xia Wei again, and said, "Student Xia Wei, are you here too? What a coincidence..."

When he entered the door just now, Lu Yang saw Xia Wei inside the room, but he was not very surprised. When he was taking elective courses, both he and Xia Wei were the best in the class.

The relationship between Xia Wei and Professor Lu is good. After the course is over, it is normal for them to come and visit for nothing.

"Squad...Squad leader, hello."

Xia Wei also hurriedly said hello, but she was very puzzled, how did Lu Yang become Professor Lu's son-in-law?Doesn't he have a girlfriend?
Of course, a smart woman would not raise any doubts on this occasion, she kept this question in her heart.

Professor Lu looked at Lu Yang, then at Xia Wei, and said with a smile, "It's been a while since you two have seen each other."

"Yeah, after the elective course is over, I haven't seen it much."

Lu Yang said with a smile.

"Stop standing, both of you, and sit down."

Lu Baolin beckoned.

Both of them sat on the sofa.

"Lu Yang, I've also heard about your company's recent incident. You have done a good job and are a responsible and good boss. Xiaoyu will follow you, so I can rest assured as a father."

Lu Yang knew what Lu Baohua was talking about.

As long as you have watched TV and surfed the Internet, it is impossible not to know about it.

He nodded and said: "Professor Lu, you are too flattering. I believe that any normal person will make the same choice as me when encountering this kind of thing. As for the company, I am still in school. , the company is actually more watched by Xiaoyu, and thanks to her, the company has been able to develop steadily until now."

"That girl has some skills, I know that, but without you providing her with this platform, she wouldn't have achieved this kind of achievement." Lu Baohua glanced at the direction of the kitchen and said: "It will take a while before we eat, we will How about playing chess, let's have a game."

"Go can't."

Lu Yang said.

"Doesn't that mean that everything else will?"

Lu Baolin said with a smile.

This Lu Yang did not deny that, apart from Go, he can play common chess, such as backgammon, army flag, chess, checkers, he is a master of these...

This is also due to the exercise of my grandfather when I was a child. During school, he was basically invincible. In high school, he even won the championship of the whole school chess competition.

This is talent.

Others are not envious.

Lu Baohua took out a chess set from the drawer.

He took the cup off the table, spread out a piece of plastic Chuhe Hanjie, and poured the chess pieces out of the box one by one. Seeing the crude chessboard and chess pieces, Lu Yang already knew that the next time he came to the door, What gift can I give.

It should be a good choice to buy a chess gift box made of mahogany.

"It will take a while to eat, let's have two rounds first?"

Lu Baohua asked.

He hasn't played chess with anyone in the past few days, and his hands are itchy.

"Okay."

Lu Yang also picked up the black chess pieces and placed them on his side. Seeing how quickly Lu Yang set them up, Lu Baohua knew that he, a student, hadn't lied just now.

Xia Wei is also very familiar with chess. When she came here before, she also played a few games with Lu Baohua. However, she was not good at it, and ended in a disastrous defeat. She even lost two chess pieces...

Seeing that the two of them had set up the chess game, Xia Wei leaned forward, looked at the chessboard, and said, "Lu Yang, Teacher Lu is a master, you have to be careful."

"Haha, of course... I will definitely be careful."

Lu Yang is very humble.

In chess, the red flag usually goes first.

This also has an allusion. The two colors of red and black actually represent the camp of Chu and Han. Liu Bang likes red, the flag and armor are red, so red represents Han, but Xiang Yu likes black, and the sunspots represent Chu.

Lu Yang took the sunspot, so he waited for Lu Baohua to move first.

"You go first."

Lu Baohua said.

"Teacher, let's follow the rules. You go first, and I will use the red chess." Lu Yang shook his head. He knew that Lu Baohua wanted to let him go, but it was not necessary.

When it comes to playing chess, Lu Yang has never been afraid of anyone, unless Lu Baohua is that kind of special professional, otherwise, Lu Yang is not worthy of him at all.

"Well, that's fine."

Lu Baohua originally wanted to make the first move. After all, he is a teacher, and he played first in front of his own students, which seemed a bit bullying. However, since the next move was an exchange of chess pieces, there was nothing to say.

Lu Baohua moved a chess piece first.

Moved the penultimate pawn on the net one step.

This is also for the convenience of jumping out.

Lu Yang casually set up a head-on shot, which is also the favorite step for novices.

The two of you took one step, I took one step, the speed was very fast, and the chess pieces fell without much thought... At first, Lu Baohua was still very confident, thinking that in his own hands, Lu Yang probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

But I found out while walking.

It doesn't seem to be the case.

The two took so many steps, it only ate one of Lu Yang's horses, and at the same time, he also lost one of his own cannons. The damage in this battle is similar to that of both sides.

Xia Wei watching from the side was also very thrilling.

She found that Lu Baohua's chess skills are very fierce. He takes one step and sees three moves, and he always has a back hand. If it were her, it would be difficult to parry, but Lu Yang was not in a hurry at all. , the two sides come and go, and for a while, it is difficult to see who has the upper hand.

"nice."

There was a little more appreciation in Lu Baohua's eyes.

He didn't expect that Lu Yang could be so good at chess, and he was equal to him. If he became his son-in-law in the future, wouldn't he have no shortage of opponents.

Lu Yang didn't know what was going on in Lu Baohua's mind. He still focused on watching the game. He had to say that Lu Baohua was very good. If he didn't take it seriously, he might lose the game.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yang moved the horse that had crossed the boundary.

Lu Baohua's eyes lit up, and he said, "Lu Yang, you have to confess to your last horse here."

Done.

Moved the car on the other side.

Seeing that his horse was about to be eaten, Lu Yang also used a car to save it, but Lu Baohua obviously didn't intend to give up, so he transferred another car back.

Both carts can eat Lu Yang's horse, but Lu Yang can't move, unless he intends to give away the cart for nothing, even if he doesn't care, Lu Baohua can use one cart to replace Lu Yang's cart and horse, or Eat a horse for nothing.

This move seems to be a turning point.

Even Xia Wei thought that Lu Yang made a mistake.

But Lu Yang didn't rush, as if he had planned it, he directly destroyed the only remaining phase of Lu Baohua with a cannon, and said, "General..."

It was only then that Lu Baohua realized that he had moved the car away just now to make Lu Yang dare to go like this. He originally planned to make Lu Yang lose the gun mount, but after a closer look, Lu Yang's other gun was not blocked. If you go this way, the opponent will go straight to the double-cannon general, and he will be over.

There was no way, Lu Baohua could only abandon his taxi and move the old man up a step.

However, Lu Yang didn't take Lu Baohua's taxi, instead he took a step forward and said again: "General."

Because the old man moved, this horse just happened to be a general.

Lu Baohua's eyes widened, a little unbelievable, he didn't expect such a move, seeing that he had no other choice, he could only move the old man online again.

Then Lu Yang smiled and dealt with one of Lu Baohua's cars.

The plan to eat Lu Yang's horse was not completed, but he lost a rook instead, which made Lu Baohua very depressed, and the chess situation seemed to be very bad for him.

Lu Yang's double cannons, horses, and chariots were all around the old man, but Lu Baohua had only one soldier left to defend, and he was completely passive. After persisting for a few rounds, he fell into a desperate situation.

Lu Baohua threw away the chess piece and sighed.

"I lost."
