The leisurely life of rebirth.

Qiu Lian, Aunt Lian and Tie Dan'er went down the mountain, and Uncle Fat and Aunt Fat's family also returned to their room.Fang Monan, Mobei, Han Zhiqian and Xiaomei were left to enter the study.The current Lunar New Year's Day is not as lively as later generations, and now the streets are deserted, except for visiting relatives and friends for New Year's greetings.The weather was cold, and they didn't want to go out when they had other things to do, so Mobei and Xiaomei could only listen to music and read books.Mr. Lin is fine. He took out the crystal chess and played chess. The opponent is of course Han Zhiqian. There are probably not many other people here.

Old Master Lin and Han Zhiqian fought on the chessboard, while Fang Monan was making Kung Fu tea on the other side of the coffee table.The Chu River and the Han Realm have long been engaged in hand-to-hand fighting, and the killing is inextricable.

Although Fang Monan doesn't understand chess, she can still understand that the number of pieces on the chessboard is rapidly decreasing as the two sides fight.Even if she doesn't know chess, she can tell who wins and who loses from the expressions on their faces.

Mr. Lin holds the red piece, and Han Zhiqian holds the black piece. On the chess board, the main force of the red piece is two knights and one cannon, while the black piece is only two cannons and one rook.As soon as Mr. Lin made a move, the red side's two horses had already entered the central palace, and the two horses were about to kill the general.Black chess with one rook and two cannons can barely cross the border, its offensive power is too weak to defend.

"Hey... boy, admit defeat! If I hadn't tried to test one or two more earlier, you would have lost." Old man Lin smiled all over his face, shaking his head, feeling very unhappy.Then he took Fang Monan and handed it over, drank the brewed tea in one gulp. "Good tea!" [

Han Zhiqian was on the chessboard, swinging the pieces around, obviously playing a chess game. "Hmph! I'm good at chess, and I'm not very familiar with Chinese chess. This time I know the rules and I won't lose again."

For these two kinds of chess, Fang Monan only knows about chess.There is a 'Queen', and there are generals who can meet each other. Unlike Chinese chess, the generals will always guard the world.Can't leave the palace.She doesn't know the rest, even the rules of its movement, she doesn't understand.

"Oh! That's how it is. There is a big difference between Chinese and Western chess." Mr. Lin said with a smile. "However, this stems from the differences between Chinese and Western cultures."

"Oh! What's the old man's opinion?" Han Zhiqian put down the chess pieces.Taking a sip of tea lightly, he said with a smile.

Mr. Lin pointed to the chessboard and said with a smile, "You see, the chessboard is composed of nine straight lines and ten horizontal lines intersecting. The middle is separated by the "Chu River Han Boundary", vividly recreating the scene of the confrontation between the two armies at that time. Interestingly, If the "Chu River-Han Realm" is taken away, it happens to be an 8x8 square chessboard, which is almost the same as a chess board. Right!" He paused and continued. "China and the West have different concepts of confrontation on the battlefield. Chess pieces occupy intersections and confront each other through lines (roads); chess is a face-to-face confrontation, and one map is flat, and even the boundary river is not used. This reflects the Chinese people's The combat style of strategizing and ease, as well as the combat style of all soldiers on the ancient western battlefields."

"Hehe... The most interesting thing is that there is no "hou" piece in chess. It can be said that the entire feudal history is a "patriarchal history". Next to the general (handsome) are two soldiers, which means the feudal society of our country. Polygamy. In the history of the West, women's rights are also an important part. The rule of the queen is not uncommon. The famous ones include the queen of Egypt, the queen of England, the queen of Denmark, the queen of Sweden, etc. But although it is the most powerful chess piece, said In the end, it is still not as important as the king." Han Zhiqian laughed.

Fang Monan said with a smile, "Looking at the national character from the quintessence of the country, chess is a symbol of politics in China, and everything is for keeping handsome."

"Oh! Interesting. What about mahjong!" Han Zhiqian raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Mahjong! The quintessence of our country, the symbol of the people, we never tire of plotting against each other."

"What about Go!" Mr. Lin asked with a smile.

"A symbol of thinking, everything is either black or white."

"What about the military flag!" Han Zhiqian said again.

"I know this. The symbol of the domestic officialdom, the first rank of the official ranks crushes people." Mr. Lin laughed. "how!"

"Right!" Fang Monan nodded with a smile.

"What about martial arts?" Han Zhiqian said.

"Hmph! The military symbol, the posture is scary, I have never seen anyone subdued." Fang Monan sneered, of course, this does not refer to the current army, it is still lethal, but in the next 20 years, it will be hard to say!Many soldiers are only children. Despite the state of war, soldiers take obedience to orders as their bounden duty, and they can do it if they don't. You must know that young adults are the first to be consumed in war.Bai Qikeng killed 40 people in Zhao State, at least the labor force is in short supply, and the decline is natural.In ancient times, it was popular in wars to recruit strong men, and several male men in a family would pick one to go to the battlefield.

"Incisive!" Han Zhiqian said with a smile, thinking about it makes sense.

"It's just for entertainment! It's New Year's Eve to make everyone laugh!" Fang Monan laughed.

"The last one is not quite right." Mr. Lin frowned and said, "Let's not talk about it, he didn't fight the southern border battle." [

"Hmph!" Fang Monan sneered and said nothing, slandering in his heart, "Not to mention, a lot of soldiers died in the Laoshan Battle, so it will be returned to others in the end." '

Mr. Lin pointed at her, "You! If you don't say anything, you will definitely not be convinced."

"Hmph! It's good to know!" Fang Monan glanced over his head.

Han Zhiqian hurriedly smoothed things over, "Speaking of the quintessence of the country, what do you say about this Beijing opera?"

Xiaomei came over and sat down and said, "Let me come, Peking Opera should be a symbol of society, and all roles have been solidified."

"Cao Cao with a white face, Guan Gong with a red face, and Zhang Fei with a black face! As soon as they come out, the common people will know who they represent." Mr. Lin said. "Makes sense."

"What about checkers!" Fang Monan raised his eyebrows.

"It's too simple, just tear down the bridge when you cross the river, and use each other!" Han Zhiqian said.

"Come on, let's play two more games." Mr. Lin has become addicted to chess, and he has to play two more games of this new chess, otherwise he will have to put it on the shelf. Only his father can play chess with him at home.

uh-huh!The two sides reorganized the battlefield, Han Zhiqian continued to be black, and Mr. Lin was red. "you go first."

Han Zhiqian was not polite either, raising his hand was a blow to the head.

Mr. Lin pointed to the chessboard and said, "This is called a pawn." This was obviously for Fang Monan, and he was also teaching her how to play chess.

As soon as this chess move was made, Mr. Lin knew the number of moves he was going to take.Mr. Lin raised his head and glanced at him. He didn't expect such a gentleman to play chess so fiercely!The old man calmly responded with a screen horse, and he explained to Fang Monan as he dismounted.

The two started to make some new moves, and each deployed defenses or prepared to attack in their own base camps.The layout is set, the offensive begins, Han Zhiqian is the main attack, and the old man is the main defense.Han Zhiqian got out with both cars, with both wings flying together, the old man moved, leaving one side of the baseline free, leaving only one car to guard the old man.

Half an hour passed, and Han Zhiqian's offensive gradually failed.Mr. Lin defended impermeably, and exchanged one cannon for Han Zhiqian's car.Han Zhiqian's two wings became a single wing, and he was already unable to attack, but Mr. Lin's veteran in Jiugonggeli was as stable as Mount Tai.Now it was the old man's turn to attack, and the two horses grabbed the general and went straight into Han Zhiqian's Nine Palaces.Han Zhiqian's middle road was already empty, and he was constantly exchanged by Mr. Lin, and the remaining generals were killed and injured. As a result, Mr. Lin easily killed the old man.

"Nannan, do you see clearly?" Mr. Lin looked at her and said.

"Yeah!" Fang Monan rubbed his chin and nodded, her memory got better and better as she advanced, and she could completely remember the order in which they moved and captured.

Han Zhiqian set up the chessboard, and the two armies faced each other. He glanced at the clock on the wall. "It's still early, come again."

An hour later, Han Zhiqian frowned, forming a Sichuan character. He stared at the chessboard and crossed his arms. This action has been maintained for almost 10 minutes.On the board, Han Zhiqian has two carts, one horse and one gun, while Mr. Lin only has one cart and one horse.However, Mr. Lin relied on this single-horse bicycle to force Han Zhiqian's veteran into a corner, dying.

"Zhiqian! This time I made progress, and I persisted for an hour." Mr. Lin tapped the chessboard with his index finger and said with a smile.

Han Zhiqian's veteran has long been dead, and he is back to heaven.He really didn't understand, even though his own situation was very good, the opponent's main generals were all defeated by his own taxis, how could it come to such an end, he was really unwilling, unwilling!Han Zhiqian picked up the teacup, gulped down a big gulp, his Adam's apple wriggled up and down, obviously drinking happily, wondering if the old man was using tea to cover up his disappointment.

Xiaomei patted his arm and shouted worriedly. "Zhiqian!" It was really ugly to lose. [

Han Zhiqian patted her hand backhand, "Master, you are good at chess! I admire you."

Dad and the others came in at this time, looked at the chessboard, "Hey..." He smiled, patted Han Zhiqian on the shoulder and said, "I am worse than you, every time I play chess, the old man beats me like a pig " He smiled and said, "We can't compare with the old man, he thinks about this every day when he has nothing to do, and sometimes he plays against himself."

"Hey! Dad sent the guests away." Fang Monan stood up and asked.

"Well! Let's go." Dad sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

"It's almost noon now, no one should be here!" Fang Monan said.

"Hmm! It's hard to say." Dad hesitated. "Don't care about them, let's talk when we come."

Fang Monan looked at the watch on the wall, "Then I'll go down and cook, you guys continue." After saying that, he got up and left.

At this moment, Mo Bei handed over the gift she brought to her father. She almost forgot, and handed him a Parker gold pen.

"It's not cheap, what are you doing with such a waste of money!" Dad scolded lightly.

"It's not expensive, I earned the money myself." Mo Bei said with a smile, "It's not worth it to be filial to you!"

"Take it! We all have a share." Mr. Lin said with a smile, "A little kindness from the child."

In fact, for the things that the children bought back, the money or things that most parents gave in the end often actually exceeded the value of the children's gifts.What is needed is this intention, and the most important thing is to have a heart. rq! ! !
