Chapter 85: Black and White Chess Pieces
"Xiaoqing!"
As soon as they entered the door, they saw a middle-aged man playing chess with an old man with his back to them.
I saw the old man, wearing a Mao suit, with black and white hair, but he didn't see his face and didn't know what his face was.
Lu Xiaoman and Mu Qing stood side by side, and the middle-aged man also set his eyes on him.
Lu Xiaoman could feel that it was like two sharp mangs stabbing on his body, and a majesty spread all over the middle-aged man's face.
Looking at Lu Xiaoman's appearance, he seemed to be very dissatisfied, and there was an inexplicable one in his eyes, anyway, it made Lu Xiaoman feel very unhappy
He frowned, but still didn't say anything, after all, this is not a place for him to go wild, and arrogance has to look at the right place, he can't do this, because someone else has a look, he will burst out and hurt people.
Mu Hongyu is also very angry now, he didn't expect his sister to really bring a boyfriend back.
Didn't he know that his father and himself had already arranged for her and planned her marriage in the future?
He knew that ordinary people couldn't afford it, and the marriage between the two of them would make him go one step further in the political arena.
In this way, they can completely maintain their family's status in the political arena, and there will be no whereabouts, but their value will skyrocket.
After all, since the old man's retirement, the family has slowly shown some signs of decline, and he feels that if his sister marries that family, then they still have a chance to squeeze back into the ranks of the top family.
But I didn't expect this pampered sister to play such a hand for herself, and in front of such a big right and wrong, he couldn't even see through it, it seems that in that school, being the teaching director for so many years is really in vain.
"Xiaoqing is back, go make me a cup of tea. ”
The old man didn't look back, but after playing a hand of chess, he said lightly.
"Dad, you see Xiaoqing is back with her boyfriend. ”
The middle-aged man said hurriedly.
And the old man just put his right hand up to stop him from continuing.
"Xiaoqing!"
The old man spoke again.
Mu Qing gave Lu Xiaoman a look, said an old man in her ear, and walked towards the house.
She knew that it was time for Lu Xiaoman to appear on the stage, and at the same time, he also sweated for Lu Xiaoman, after all, the old man was not an ordinary person, he had lived for most of his life, what kind of person had never seen countless people, when did he walk by, with his sharpness, could Lu Xiaoman withstand the offensive?
Lu Xiaoman's heart is much calmer now, after all, he knows that he has come here today, this matter will either succeed or not, he must do it to the end, and those who promise will try their best to do it.
"Old man, big brother, hello, Xiaoqing also stopped me from bringing anything, I came empty-handed today, it is indeed rude, I apologize to the old man here. ”
Lu Xiaoman said with a smile, facing Mu Hongyu's eyes, Lu Xiaoman did not avoid it at all, and greeted him, but responded with a smile.
"Well, sit!"
The old man's response was also uneven, pointing to the seat on the left.
"Okay, okay!"
Lu Xiaoman knew that it was not good for him to stand, so he sat down.
Looking at the situation in the chess game, it is obviously a corner of the old man's killing.
He still frowned, thought for a moment, and then his brow expanded.
The old man, who had been watching him from the corner of his eye, spoke.
"Why, do you know chess too?"
"I won't go down, but I'll still see it. ”
Lu Xiaoman looked at the chessboard, and then said quite confidently.
"Oh, that's interesting, I won't get down, but you know?"
The old man's face is very kind, but there is a murderous aura between the two eyebrows, which is extremely inconsistent with his face.
Lu Xiaoman knew that the old man used to be an official, and it must not be the administrative system, but the army.
With such a big evil spirit, if he was not a general, then he must have been a butcher.
So the old man must have been a high-ranking army general before, thinking of this, he knew everything, no wonder Mu Qing was so afraid of this old man, after all, the people who came out of the army were all vigorous and resolute, and they must be very strict with their families.
But he really thought wrong about this, Mu Qing has been very loved by the old man since she was a child, after all, she is such a girl, Mu Qing has been regarded as a pearl in her palm since she was a child
Love, otherwise she wouldn't have let a child of a red family be a small school director.
Their relationship has always been very harmonious, and Mu Qing's relationship with his father has always been very good, but he didn't expect that because of the status of their marriage, the two turned their faces, and Mu Qing even lost his temper with him.
He wants to see if there is really a man who makes his daughter so angry with him and has such a stiff quarrel with him.
And when Mu Qing came back just now, although he didn't see Lu Xiaoman, he knew that Mu Qing would definitely bring a man back, even if she didn't have a boyfriend, she would definitely bring someone back.
He knows his baby daughter too well, he has been so tough since he was a child, he doesn't give face no matter who it is, isn't that the case now?
He looked at Lu Xiaoman's face, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if this is really her boyfriend, then he, who is a father, is probably really unqualified, but he knows Mu Qing's temper, how could he like a boy younger than his age.
"Old man, your chess is completely forced to shrink a corner and cannot move, and the eldest brother's chess is being forced towards you in the form of crushing. ”
Lu Xiaoman said that, his eyes were still looking at the chessboard.
Mu Qing's eldest brother looked at Lu Xiao is more and more unhappy, "Isn't what you said obvious? People who can't play chess will definitely be able to understand such a simple situation." ”
He shook his head, saying that Lu Xiaoman's forced pretending to be wrong was that he had never seen anyone, Lu Xiaoman actually played such a trick in front of him, he didn't understand it, he just didn't understand it, and he dared to say such a big thing.
"That's the way it is, but it's ......"
Lu Xiaoman seemed to be a little speechless and stopped.
"But what?"
However, the old man was interested, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This game of chess is still a mystery, right? ”
Lu Xiaoman smiled at the old man, and then said.
"Oh, what a mystery is hidden, I'm going to hear your explanation. ”
He still felt a little unlikely in his heart, after all, Lu Xiaoman was so young, he didn't think that his game of chess would be guessed by him.
"This game seems to be a trapped dragon, but in fact the dragon is in the shallows, and the dragon may enter the sea at any time. ”
Lu Xiaoman leaned down and looked at the chess pieces one by one, black and white, which was clearly a white dragon and a black dragon fighting.
The white dragon was entrenched around the black dragon, and the black dragon had already poked its head out, looking around, it seemed that the white dragon was not in his eyes.
He couldn't help but admire the wisdom of the old man, this is life like Yi, Yi like life.
"Boy, what are you talking nonsense? This chess game is so obvious that you can't even understand it, and you're still talking nonsense here, do you know whose chess skills you're talking about?"
A trace of anger flashed in Mu Hongyu's eyes.
In his eyes, Lu Xiaoman simply has no vision, and he doesn't know how to pretend to understand, which makes him even more disgusted.
I don't know if it's because of his own disgust with this uninvited brother-in-law, or because of his sister's disobedience to his arrangement.
Anyway, Lu Xiaoman seemed to him to be as ridiculous as a clown, he thought in his heart that his sister was so good, how could he like such a little person?
"Hongyu!"
The old man frowned and looked at what Brother Mu Qing said.
Seeing that the old man was unhappy, Mu Hongyu didn't dare to say any more, he knew that he knew who got the power in this life, if he didn't have his own old man, he would be nothing.
So he dares to be angry with whomever he dares to be angry with, and he doesn't dare to be angry with anyone, and he also knows that his old man was also hot-tempered when he was young, if he dares to be angry with him, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
In fact, he is still quite afraid of his old man, and now that he is forty or fifty years old, he is still a little timid.
"What is your name, lad. ”
The old man turned to ask Lu Xiaoman, there was no expression on his face, and his eyes were very bright.
Mu Hongyu immediately felt uncomfortable when he heard this, he knew that the old man asked Lu Xiaoman's name, which was a good start for his sister, but it was not a good thing for him at all.
This proves that the old man is already interested in this kid, or is curious.
"The kid's name is Lu Xiaoman, and he just expressed his humble opinion, and the old man and the eldest brother don't have to take it to heart. ”
Lu Xiaoman still put his attitude and figure very low, after all, whether it is his identity today or his original identity, it is still not enough to look at this group of bigwigs, even if it is for the sake of the current face, he must definitely do this matter beautifully.
"Lu Xiaoman, Xiaoman, the barbarian is wise and pure, and he is really a good name, and the meaning is not shallow, but it is conceivable that your parents still put a lot of thought into the name. ”
The old man shook his head, and then exclaimed.
"What do parents do?"
As soon as the old man asked this sentence, Mu Hongyu felt that his eyes were dark.
No, the old man has already begun to ask about this kid's family history, explaining that he has no intention of preventing this from happening, but he has already discussed it with that family, and if he wants to go back on his word, even their family can't afford it.
"Father, sister's business......"
Mu Hongyu will definitely not watch this happen without making some changes.
"Hmm~"
The old man turned his head, his eyes were like an eagle's hook, and his face was very unsightly.
"Alas!"
Mu Hongyu didn't dare to say anything more, just sighed and twisted his face.
"Let's continue with the conversation we just left. ”
The old man slowly closed his eyes, leaned back on the rattan chair and shook it.
Lu Xiaoman looked ahead, his eyes were a little dull, and then said slowly.
"I don't know what my parents do, I haven't seen them for many years, I don't even know if they're alive or dead, we have been disconnected since I was a child. ”
Thinking of the past 10 years, how did he come over? Lu Xiaoman's heart couldn't help but feel bitter.
If there is no Sister Wan, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive for the past 10 years, maybe I will starve to death on the streets, and I may be bullied.
That's why he respects Sister Wan very much, and loves him even more, Sister Wan is a more important person than his parents.
"Oh, there's such a thing, so haven't you been looking for it yet?"
When the old man heard this, he frowned, and he didn't seem to have much feeling about what happened to Lu Xiaoman, just a bland inquiry.
"Where to find it? After all these years, what can I find, and what can I do? Do I want to ask them, or do I beg them to be responsible for me?"
Lu Xiaoman shook his head bitterly, he didn't want to look for it, or he was afraid to look for it, because why didn't they come to him in the past 10 years, why did they leave so decisively?
"Maybe they're having a hard time, maybe they don't know what school you're in. ”
The old man was still lying on the rocking chair and shaking.
"Hmm~"
Lu Xiaoman was stunned at first, but after thinking about the old man's words carefully, the old man played for himself, and the old man dug a big pit for himself, and hurriedly said again.
"What are you going to school for? I've already graduated now, what are you going to school? ”
The old man was also there, and he didn't ask anything related to this, but he seemed to have an answer in his heart.
