The old hen was very fat, and there was a large bowl of chicken fat alone. My mother, Chen, only stewed half an old hen in the morning, adding some dried mushrooms and red dates. The soup was delicious, warming the stomach and nourishing the body.
After dinner, people came to the house one after another, some to congratulate and bring gifts or to make donations. Chen, the mother, did not accept any gifts, and Zhu Ping'an dealt with all the donations according to their specific circumstances. This situation lasted for two days before it slowly returned to normal.
Cows and sheep are roaming around on the sunny hillside, grazing on fallen leaves and hay. The shepherd boy is wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket and sleeping soundly against a tree trunk. It is like a paradise.
Zhu Ping'an passed by the hillside, carrying his schoolbag across his shoulder, and walked towards Shanghe Village.
The Li family in Shanghe Village has gotten used to Zhu Ping'an. From entering the door to going to the study, he is as natural as returning to his own home. Of course, if there is no black-bellied and willful girl
"Hey, Zhu Ping'an, how can you come in without knocking?"
In the study, Li Shu was holding a chess piece, looking extremely charming. She glanced at Zhu Ping'an who walked in with her big black eyes, with a half-smile and a face full of arrogance.
Beautiful face, willful temper.
This feeling is like a poppy bud quietly spreading throughout the room, always giving people a suffocating beauty, like an angel and a devil.
"The study is not a boudoir." Zhu Ping'an replied indifferently and walked into the study with a cool breeze.
"lecher!"
The scheming girl Li Shu glared at Zhu Ping'an hard, pouting her lips and blushing cheeks, as if she was accusing Zhu Ping'an of teasing her.
"Here, these are the contents of the last few chapters."
Zhu Ping'an said as he took out a booklet sewn with needle and thread from his schoolbag and placed it on the desk. Then he took out the book he borrowed last time from his schoolbag and shook it at the sinister girl, indicating that one book was not too few, and then walked towards the bookshelf.
The scheming girl was playing chess with the little maidservant. Seeing Zhu Ping'an's indifference to her, she was quite dissatisfied. She glared at Zhu Ping'an's back several times, and then vented her dissatisfaction on the chess. [Almost all the books you want to read are available here. It is much more stable and updated faster than other websites. It is full text and has no ads.] She attacked and killed, pressed and swiped, and in no time, she ate most of the chess pieces of the little maidservant, who was already dwarfed by the little maidservant.
"Miss" the little maid was so angry that her eyes turned red with grievance.
"Who made you so stupid? I've given you three pieces, but you're still so weak. It's really a letdown!" The black-hearted girl Li Shu angrily swiped the chess pieces, making the chessboard a mess.
The little maidservant Baozi puffed her mouth in grievance, and suddenly saw Zhu Pingan who was borrowing books behind the bookshelf. Her big watery eyes lit up, and then she looked at her family who was not enjoying themselves and said, "Miss, I am not good at playing chess, but there is someone who is definitely good at playing chess."
The scheming girl's eyes flashed, and she seemed to have guessed who the bun belonged to, but she asked calmly with a nonchalant expression, "Who is it?"
"Zhu Ping'an, he is a juren, he must be good at chess." Baozi.
"Him?" The black-bellied girl snorted, "Who knows if it's a good move or not."
The chubby little maid Hua'er rolled her eyes, then stood up from her seat and walked towards Zhu Ping'an, who was flipping through a book behind the bookshelf. After approaching him, she said a few words.
The scheming girl Li Shu saw Zhu Ping'an looking at her, and then she saw Zhu Ping'an shaking his head.
It was obvious at first glance that the chubby little maid had asked Zhu Ping'an to come over and play chess with her, but Zhu Ping'an actually shook his head. This made the black-bellied girl Li Shu very dissatisfied, and her mouth pouted.
You don't want to accompany me, right?!
"Hey, Zhu Ping'an, come and play chess with me." The black-bellied girl pouted and acted bossy.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Pingan glanced at the scheming girl and curled his lips in disdain.
"You" the sinister girl stomped her feet in anger.
At this time, Baozi wanted to persuade Zhu Pingan, but all his efforts were in vain because of his young lady's shout.
"You, if you win a round with me, you can choose any book and it will be yours from now on. What do you think? Do you dare?"
The scheming girl looked at Zhu Ping'an provocatively, playing with a chess piece casually with her delicate hands.
"Why not?"
Hearing this, Zhu Pingan became interested. It just so happened that he had his eyes on a book that was very thick. If he copied it, it would take him several days. If he played chess with the black-bellied girl Li Shu and won, the book would belong to him. It was a sure-win business, so why not do it
To be honest, I played chess a lot when I was in school in my previous life, and I also looked up a lot of chess manuals. I am not good at Go, but I can be said to be very good at chess. I like to sacrifice chess pieces to set traps, so that the opponent will fall into the trap unknowingly and be killed with one blow.
So the little maid Baozi diligently helped Zhu Ping'an and the scheming girl Li Shu to set up the chessboard, while the old nanny and the little maids on the other side also did their job and served tea and water.
Game 1
Li Shu was the first to attack, and Zhu Ping'an just started the game. Li Shu frequently passed the checkpoints and ate Zhu Ping'an's chess pieces many times on his side. However, when Li Shu was feeling proud, Zhu Ping'an only made a killing move and won the game without capturing any of Li Shu's pieces.
In the second game, Li Shu was much more cautious, but was still trapped by Zhu Ping'an and lost the second game unknowingly.
"You'll just cheat behind my back!"
Li Shu, a scheming girl who lost two games in a row, was not convinced at all.
Then, in the third game, Zhu Ping'an seemed to be responding to Li Shu's words specifically. He launched an aggressive offensive right from the start, using a series of moves such as "Two-Headed Snake", "Boldly Pierce the Heart", and "Cannon Crush Dansha" to eat up the chariots, horses, and cannons of Li Shu's side one after another. In the end, only one old veteran was left, and the rest were left with nothing.
Li Shu's expression at that time almost made her want to eat Zhu Ping'an alive.
"All those who are about to fight will line up in front."
Just when Zhu Ping'an was about to make his final move, he heard Li Shu on the opposite side utter these words in a convulsive manner.
Then, Li Shu quickly put all the chess pieces that she had eaten back to their original positions.
"What are you looking at? This is the Rebirth Mantra. Reciting it once can bring you back to life."
Li Shu looked at Zhu Ping'an with a smile, speaking confidently, her big watery eyes full of pride.
Damn, he can be resurrected by chanting a spell!
However, what was the difference in level? Zhu Ping'an still used the remaining chess pieces to eat up most of Li Shu's chess pieces, leaving only two elephants and three pawns.
Then we saw Li Shu's fancy tricks. Her elephant could cross the river, and she said that it was a pawn hired at a high price from a martial arts master, which was more powerful than a chariot!
But even so, Zhu Ping'an still strangled Li Shu's Dumbo and the martial arts master's pawn on the spot.
Li Shu was once again left alone as a veteran.
Then, a scene that subverted Zhu Ping'an's view of chess happened. Li Shu used Zhu Ping'an's rook to capture Zhu Ping'an's king. What the hell does this mean!
"A big reward will always bring out brave men. I used a lot of money to alienate one of your soldiers and made him work for me!"
Li Shu held her chin and looked at Zhu Ping'an, who had a look of ecstasy on his face, with a look of high spirits.
"Only women and villains are difficult to raise."
Zhu Ping'an looked at the high-spirited Li Shu, shook his head slightly, and said lightly, "This girl has both of these."
"Tsk, you sound like you want to be a monk!" Li Shu curled her lips in disapproval, then looked at Zhu Ping'an with burning eyes, "You look down on women, are you not going to get married in the future?"
"I just look down on you!" Zhu Ping'an glanced at Li Shu and said lightly.
"You are so narrow-minded. Hey, what kind of wife do you want to find in the future?" Li Shu curled her lips in disdain and asked jokingly, but her eyes were burning with heat.
