Chapter 14 Chess Tournament

After the lively sound of firecrackers, the Mei family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner can be regarded as the official opening of the meal, the table of four people, compared to last year, is less lively, Xia Chun gave Mei Wendian a special exception, allowed him to drink a bowl of rice wine, Mei Wendian happily toasted with everyone, Mei Wendian drank the first bowl in one breath, was about to drink the second bowl, Xia Chun stopped him, no longer let her drink, Mei Wendian was angry, but still accepted.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xia Chun was going to ask everyone to sit around the tea room to watch the New Year together, and on the day of the first snow, these people were also together, no, there were more people at that time. But Mei Wendian, a teenage boy, has not changed his playful temperament, so he is willing to sit with them all the time. After obtaining Xia Chun's consent, Mei Wendian hurriedly ran out. The back is more like a rabbit than the summer and spring of that year.

The remaining three people sat in the tea room drinking tea together, Xia Chun asked Qiu Cicada what he wanted to drink, Qiu Cicada said to listen to Lin Yuefeng, Lin Yuefeng said to listen to Xia Chun, Xia Chun knew that he couldn't ask the answer, so he took out the best Anji white tea from the cabinet, and soaked it in the purple clay pot that Mei Leyue had just sent a few years ago, and a few pieces of tea floated on it, like a few flat boats quietly floating on the lake, but it seemed a little more spacious.

"There are fewer and fewer people every year. Qiu Cicada sighed.

"It's good that you're still with me. Xia Chun held Qiu Cicada's hand, but he sighed, "I hope you will still be by my side in the future and never leave." ”

"Qiu Cicada will never leave Miss in this life!" Qiu Cicada nodded heavily.

"I hope so. ”

The master and servant are in deep love, looking at each other, the sound of firecrackers outside the window is still around, celebrating the arrival of the new year, but Xia Chun and Qiu Cicada have already felt sentimental and parting. They all know that there is a feast in the world.

Lin Yuefeng took the cup of tea that had been brewed on the table, and drank it first, "Fortunately, I know that you are masters and servants, otherwise I, a big man, would listen to you say these words, not to mention how fleshy it is!"

"Sir, you also bury our ......" Qiu Cicada lowered her head and smiled shyly, and also made tea for herself and Xia Chun.

The three of them chatted about other things, Lin Yuefeng and Xia Chun began to order with tea, Qiu Cicada was also listening to it, and then Qiu Cicada sang a mountain song to the two of them, the three of them laughed and pulled homely, talking and talking, Xia Chun was tired, leaned on the small table on the side and fell asleep, Lin Yuefeng went to find thick clothes for Xia Chun, ready to put them on for her. Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiu Cicada said that she was going to the kitchen to start preparing dumplings.

Lin Yuefeng came back with his coat, and there was only Xia Chun who was sleeping soundly in the tea room, Xia Chun's head was resting on the desk, because he was too drunk from sleeping, and his mouth was still drooling. Lin Yuefeng gently put his coat on Xia Chun's back, and really thought she was cute, so he half-squatted down and stretched out his hand, ready to wipe the saliva off the corners of her mouth.

Mei Wendian came back at this time, he came back with a bag of coins, dangling it in his hand, jingling all the way, the money bag rang, it was earned by him and the group of friends outside just now.

"Sister Xia Chun, I won a lot of money, look!"

But before Mei Wendian threw the bulging money bag into Xia Chun's hand, he saw the scene where Lin Yuefeng lowered his head, from his point of view, Lin Yuefeng was like bowing his head and kissing Xia Chun.

With a bang, the money bag in Mei Wendian's hand fell to the ground, and all the coins in his hand slipped out.

Qiu Cicada hugged a pot of dumplings and shouted loudly into the door, "Come on, eat dumplings! steaming dumplings!" But before she could walk in, she almost bumped into Mei Wendian, fortunately she protected it early, otherwise this pot of dumplings would have pounced straight on Mei Wendian's back.

Lin Yuefeng heard the sound inside, and quickly stood up, Xia Chun was also woken up, but after sleeping this night, she felt exceptionally refreshed.

Qiu Cicada hurriedly asked Mei Wendian to help her, "The little ancestor is finally back, eat dumplings!

"Good ......"

Mei Wendian brought the pot in, Qiu Cicada squatted down, and while picking up coins, he began to count Mei Wendian, "Little ancestor, why do you throw money around?"

The steaming dumplings were on the pot, and Mei Wendian glanced at Lin Yuefeng and kept it secretive.

Halfway through the dumplings, the temple bell of Guiling Mountain rings not far away. This time the new year is really coming.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xia Chun took Mei Wendian to visit Cui's family. Meitang Cui Wu, the Cui family is one of the medical families. It is also the most indisputable one in the world.

They deliberately chose to go after lunch, in order not to trouble the Cui family, Xia Chun asked Mei Wendian to carry a large bag and a small bag, and as soon as the polite words passed, Mei Wendian went out to the courtyard to watch people play chess. Xia Chun and several mothers-in-law of the Cui family finished their homework, and it had been two hours, and it was getting dark outside, so she stood up, "Then Chun'er will say goodbye to a few of them first." ”

Xia Chun came to the courtyard, only to find that Mei Wendian had already sat on a small bamboo bench and played chess with others. The opponent is the second son of the Cui family. Two children playing chess, a group of big men are watching the battle in a circle, although Xia Chun is not short, but compared with the men in Qingshuijian, it is still thin, so he squeezed into the inner circle, and it also seems that there are not many chess pieces left on the chessboard, it turns out that this game is almost over, Mei Wendian's defeat is too obvious.

Xia Chun silently observed the situation, in fact, Mei Wendian was not without a reversal opportunity, Mei Wendian's hand on the chess piece "phase" and the chess piece "horse", whether the next step was to go to the horse or to go to the field? It was obviously a cold day, but Mei Wendian was sweating profusely because he couldn't think about the results on these two issues. I saw that his hand would be placed on the "horse" for a while, and on the "phase" for a while, hesitating.

"Hurry up, according to your turtle hair speed, it's going to be dark, and we people have to rush home for dinner!" Mei Wendian's opponent couldn't wait, and his mouth kept urging Mei Wendian.

"Don't worry, it's going to be right away, it's going to be good right away...... Mei Wendian wiped the sweat on his face, and said that he would win two out of three games, but this was only the first game, and he didn't expect him to lose.

Xia Chun watched the situation for a while, and the bystanders were clear, and she quickly judged, "Look." ”

But before he could say this, Mei Wendian's hand had already taken the lead in holding the "horse" and stretched out.

Sure enough, you came and went, and in less than three steps, Mei Wendian had already become a turtle in the urn, accompanied by the other party's sentence "general", and this game was settled.

"I'm so angry, don't accept it, don't accept it, come again, come again!" Mei Wendian stretched out his two hands, and in three or two strokes, all the chess boards on it were disrupted, and the two of them began to place the chess pieces on the chessboard again.

It was getting late, and Xia Chun was about to ask Mei Wendian to leave and go home, and Cui Jiamu also happened to be standing next to him and watching. It's just that he has changed into a long shirt, he stopped Xia Chun, Xia Chungang turned around, and was stunned for a while before he recognized that Cui Jiamu's current and previous bright image can be said to be like two people.

Cui Jiamu pointed to the grapevine trellis on the side, with a slight apology on his face, "Mrs. Mei, can you take a step to speak?"

Xia Chun nodded and instructed Mei Wendian, "Wendian, I'll go out for a while, wait for me." ”

This game has just begun, Mei Wendian is preparing to gear up and do a big job, where is the kung fu to manage Xia Chun now, and waved his hand, "You go, come and call me later!" I lost one game just now, two wins in three games, I have to win back in the second game, otherwise they will ask me to take off my pants!"

As soon as Mei Wendian finished speaking, the group of old men laughed. Xia Chun shook his head. It is estimated that it is a boring gamble between this group of men to tease children.

Xia Chun let Mei Wendian play there, and he and Cui Jiamu went to the quiet grape trellis next to him.

"Mrs. May, please wait a moment, I'll come quickly. After Cui Jiamu finished speaking, he trotted back to his house, Xia Chun waited in the back, and after a while, Cui Jiamu came over with a thin cowhide envelope.

Xia Chun waited for Cui Jiamu, only to see him hand the envelope to Xia Chun, "Mrs. Mei, since you are here, please trouble you to give this letter to Mr. Lin." ”

"Letter?" Xia Chun lowered his head and saw that the kraft paper was written in small letters: Lin Yuefeng personally opened.

"What kind of letter is this?" Xia Chun asked curiously.

Cui Jiamu explained, "Mr. Lin said before that he knew a teacher Liu from the medical university, let me contact on my behalf, I went to the provincial capital last week, visited the previous teacher, but it happened that this teacher Liu was also there, I said this, the teacher said that he had time to get together with Mr. Lin after the year, and felt that I used to have a stubborn personality, afraid that I would be greedy for fun and forget to pass it on, so I wrote a letter for me to bring back, since my father said that Mr. Lin is now temporarily living in Mei's house, then I asked Miss Xia to help me forward this letter." ”

Xia Chun understood the beginning and the end, took the letter from Cui Jiamu's hand, and prepared to call Wendian to go back to Mei's house again.

Mei Wendian's side has already won the second game, "yes! I won! Happy! The prizes are all mine!"

"Two wins in three games! I can't say for sure, what are you doing!"

"Okay, okay, then let's go to the third game!"

"Wendian, it's almost time to go!" Xia Chun pulled Mei Wendian, not wanting him to play anymore.

"Sister Xia Chun, do it again......" Mei Wendian took Xia Chun's hand, her eyes flashing and begging her.

From childhood to adulthood, as long as he had an accident and got into trouble, the first thing he thought of was not to find his father and mother, nor to ask his brother Mei Wenzi for help, but to ask Xia Chun, for him, Xia Chun is the most trustworthy person in the world. And this trust, with the death of several close relatives one after another, is now getting deeper and deeper, and his dependence on Xia Chun is also getting deeper and deeper.

However, Xia Chun also knows that he has one of his biggest flaws, that is, he will not reject people, especially those who are close to him.
