Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

5:30 p.m.

Ruan Dezhi put down the report on time, packed his things, stood up and said gently to Zhang Xuan who was reading the newspaper:

"Zhang Xuan, let's go home."

"Hey, okay."

Zhang Xuan was tired of reading newspapers and had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. In response, as soon as the newspaper was thrown away, he quickly got up and followed.

After leaving the customs gate, Zhang Xuan saw that his uncle was walking straight home, with no intention of going to the vegetable market.

He leaned in and asked: "Dear comrade uncle, didn't you say you would cook a big meal for me and not buy vegetables? I don't eat seafood."

Ruan Dezhi adjusted his glasses, smiled and said, "Don't worry, your aunt has already bought them."

Don't worry, don't worry...

How can you not worry?

Thinking of the vegetables his aunt bought, Zhang Xuan's expectations for this feast were immediately halved.

…

New style small building, fourth floor.

The two of them chatted and walked, talking and laughing, and it took them about 20 minutes to get home.

After changing his shoes and entering the door, Zhang Xuan realized that he had thought too much as soon as he arrived in the living room.

Just say that Comrade Ruan Dezhi will cook in person today?

It turned out that a guest came to the house.

A family of three came.

A middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman.

There is also a girl in red, about 20 years old, who should be their daughter.

It is rare for such a beautiful three people to gather together in a family. Zhang Xuan couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

Listen to the warm address of the old uncle and the other party.

A middle-aged man named Su Jin was studying the chess game in the living room. From time to time, he would chat with people in the kitchen. He spoke Cantonese and spoke very magnetically. Just by listening to his voice, you can tell that he is a very well-educated person.

As for the middle-aged woman, her name is Qin Yueming. He was helping in the kitchen, chatting with Yang Yingman, choosing, washing and chopping vegetables together. It seems that the two women have a very good relationship.

Ruan Dezhi took a deep breath, put his briefcase on the coffee table, and greeted the girl in red who was sitting with Yang Manjing:

"Xiao Shiyi, you're here, you have to have a drink with me today."

Hearing this, "Little Eleven" sitting cross-legged on the sofa said with a smile: "Uncle Ruan Gaosheng, one cup is not enough, I have to toast you three cups today."

Ruan Dezhi laughed happily, "Okay, I like to hear this. I'll cook first and have a drink with you later."

True to his word, Ruan Dezhi pulled Zhang Xuan over and introduced him briefly, then rolled up his sleeves and entered the kitchen.

Facing the eyes of three pairs of people in the living room, one big and two small, Zhang Xuan smiled politely, then took a glass of water and drank it slowly.

Then entered the bedroom.

There's no other way, I can't do it without taking a shower.

After staying in the customs warehouse all day in this hot summer, I was already suffocated by sweat, and my whole body was filled with the stench of sweat.

He was afraid that staying in the living room for too long would stink up the house.

…

It took Zhang Xuan more than 20 minutes to brush his teeth, wash his face, take a shower and wash his clothes.

Entering the living room again, before sitting down, Su Jin suddenly raised his head and said to him:

"Dezhi said you can play chess, and you're pretty good at it. Come, let's play a game."

Chess?

Yes.

I've known it since the third grade of elementary school. There wasn't much to do in the countryside at that time. Wasn't it just watching the old people play chess every day?

It's just that I have been a man for two generations and have accumulated skills for decades. I am afraid that if you can't do it, you will cry for your father and call your mother later and lose face.

Seeing the expectant look on his face, Zhang Xuan gave up the idea of ​​being a coward and sat down quietly.

If you are looking for death, I will give you a ride.

It's free, no charge.

…

The two played a total of three sets.

In the first set, Su Jin obviously didn't take Zhang Xuan seriously. He can move as he pleases, open and close as he pleases, advance and retreat as he pleases, and act like a king who is the boss of the world and the second child of others.

It rained hard, and Su Jin only had one cannon left.

On the other hand, Zhang Xuan was leisurely and leisurely. As soon as Su Jin made a move, he immediately followed it without even a second's hesitation.

It's like playing in the rain.

Opposite, that feeling of comfort, that natural, harmonious and free and easy feeling is just for fun.

But the rain was also falling, but Zhang Xuan still had chariots, horses and artillery, giving him the upper hand.

After continuing to walk ten or so steps with all his strength, Su Jin paused, lowered his head and thought for a while, then surrendered.

In the second set, Su Jin was much more cautious.

But the eggs are useless.

Su Jin struggled to take a step.

Zhang Xuan was still the same, immediately making a "pop" sound and taking a step casually. It went down cleanly, without any sloppiness.

Su Jin was startled, looked up at him, his eyes fell on the chessboard, and after careful consideration, he made another move.

However, before he could raise his hand, Zhang Xuan made another "pop" sound and immediately took a step forward.

Su Jin, "..."

Yang Manjing, "..."

Xiao Eleven, "..."

Su Jin was speechless, but he was still very tenacious and continued to lower his head and ponder.

Xiao Eleven turned his head and glanced at his father, then quietly observed Zhang Xuan for a while.

At a certain moment, after waiting for a long time, I still didn’t see my father playing chess. Xiao Shiyi got up and poured two cups of herbal tea, one for Su Jin and one for Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan was a little surprised that someone actually poured herbal tea for him?

You have to know that I have been to my uncle's house many times and I have always received drinking water myself. No one has ever poured me tea.

Why!

What a long time to see you!

The first cup of herbal tea was poured for me by a foreign girl. It's so sad.

Looking at Xiao Eleven in surprise, Zhang Xuan also smiled after seeing the girl smiling at him, politely took the herbal tea, raised his head, and drank most of the cup in one breath.

Herbal tea is better than drinking water, sweet and has an aftertaste.

It's just a pity.

The honey trap is of no use to you!

Su Jin should die or die, it ended faster than the first set.

At the beginning of the third set, Su Jin took the tissue handed over by Xiao Eleven and wiped away the beads of sweat that had appeared on his forehead from unknown time.

Then take a sip of tea, sit upright, and sit down very calmly.

Especially after 5 moves, Su Jin has to think carefully about every move and stay for more than 5 seconds.

Zhang Xuan couldn't bear to look at this twisted situation.

Damn it!

With your skills, you still study the end game?

He's several steps behind Huang Fugui, the old man in the village, let alone me.

Zhang Xuan is bored.

It's really boring to play chess while having to greet Yang Manjing and Xiao Shiyi who are silently paying attention to each other like they are looking at a Western scene.

I really want to hang out with Su while reading the newspaper.

But in order to give others face, in order to respect the girl Xiao Shiyi’s cup of tea. Zhang Xuan gave up his mean thoughts again, and had to pretend to be very serious in the end.

The old man ignored the two women next to him who looked at him silently from time to time. Sitting there with my ears and nose, my nose and my heart, my right hand propped up my chin and I was thinking: Should I let Su Jin pull back a victory in the third set?

After all, he is also my uncle’s guest after all, isn’t he?

Judging from the way they dress and talk, they are still successful people in society, and they are the kind that are relatively well-off.

And there were two guys watching nearby, so he had to leave some dignity in front of his daughter.

But…

Fuck you!

Opposite is a stinky chess basket! It makes him very powerless! I have already drained it, several times.

But Su Jin successfully avoided the escape route he set every time, and always went into a dead end.

There were even two times when Zhang Xuan directly sent a "car" to Su Jin to eat, but he hesitated and hesitated, touched his eyebrows, and didn't dare to make a move.

Everyone is frightened!

The old man was also convinced at this moment.

I'm really convinced!

Clang clang clang clang, keep killing...

Su Jin gritted his teeth and persisted until the 29th round. Seeing that Zhang Xuan never killed himself, Su Jin suddenly awakened to self-knowledge. His body that had been tense suddenly relaxed, he sighed and put down the chess piece, and said with a magnanimous smile:

"Awesome! It's true that a hero emerges from a boy. It's amazing! I'm amazed."

Zhang Xuan felt a little proud in his heart, but on the outside he smiled restrainedly without losing his grace and refused to accept the words.

Because it’s not easy to accept this. No matter how you accept it, it will be wrong and you will lose face.

Just pretend to be shy.

ps: The first order was in the early 1300s, which is neither good nor bad.

But the average booking is a bit miserable, it's only over 700. If there are more updates, I probably won't be able to keep up.

Thank you all for your support, thank you.

Also, today it was on the monthly new book list. Although it may not be there tomorrow, I’m still happy.

I hope all old comrades will continue to support us.

please!
