Happy days are always short-lived, and it is certainly an idealist who says this, and it is more likely that the person has been injured. I don't remember anything special in the three years of college life, except for the sports meeting in the second year, because of the departure of the graduates, Xu Dazi finally let me participate, the first event at that time was the shot put, and I was the first to throw, I only threw once, and then ran out to go around the chess stall, who made you underestimate me in the first year. Who knew that it would break the record and get the first place. That night, the big man Xu who had a treat, holding his wallet in pain, took the opportunity to start counting me, I turned a deaf ear, and his face did not change color as he ate as he ate, and it didn't take long for the big man to shut up, because he found that the big pot of beef bones and a large plate of spicy chicken that he liked to eat was about to bottom out.

I didn't remember what I was happy about, anyway, I spent my junior college life so happily and was about to graduate. Faced with the choice of whether to continue my studies or get married now, I did not hesitate to agree to Jasmine's proposal to go home and get married after graduation. Who doesn't want to be happy for a long time? But in the fairy tale, the prince and the princess live happily together, and it may not be the final ending. I don't know if it was the enthusiasm of many directors to shoot the sequel of a certain story that influenced people, or the ending after the happy ending triggered the inspiration of those directors. Anyway, the tragedy of the opposite thing befell me.

A very cliché but very realistic story, the emergence of a boy with excellent conditions, maybe the excellent is the boy's uncle, and it happens to be the director of the girl's father, the leader of a provincial machinery factory. Who doesn't want a better future for their children? So uncharacteristically, he began to oppose that campus romance. People who have just entered the society are very immature, and in the end they failed to withstand the storm. One wanted to take care of both his parents and his boyfriend, but he came up with the idea of building a plank road and secretly dating two boys at the same time, and wanted to wait for the old man to drag it off before marrying his boyfriend. A principled but unpractical person solves the problem, and finally drops the phone in front of him and cuts off contact.

My father said: "The highest state of a person's happiness is not how successful he is, how much money he has, but how much he can find happiness from the ordinary, so I named you Lefan, if one day you can't find happiness, maybe you pursue something you can't get, or lose something that you can never get back, then you have to learn to be like a man to take it up, let it go." “

Although I don't know if I can afford to put it down in the future, I no longer have any good feelings or extravagant hopes for luck. Today it can hold you up like the sun in the sky, and tomorrow it can throw you into the mud, so that your hair can't be exposed, and you have to taste a few mouthfuls of fishy mud. In an instant, you can play with people in the palm of your hand, and let you taste the rollercoaster from heaven to hell.

Some people may want to take the "Therefore the heavens will be entrusted to the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and benefit what they cannot." "Let's talk about things. But it is better to read than to have no books at all, and to go through hardships is not to suffer for the sake of suffering, but to benefit from what you cannot. It's just like hard work is not for struggle, it's for the sake of being well-off. Therefore, the tribulation that has not benefited is simply tribulation, and has no other meaning.

The only thing I could find at this point that could take my luck out of luck was probably chess, though I don't know if it would allow me to put down what I should have put down, or if I would find the happiness I needed from it. At least it's not like playing cards, if you're lucky, you can almost win if you touch a good card, and if you're unlucky, you can still win if you touch a stinky card, and the technology is good for nothing. It's not like mahjong, there are lucky people who are left to be able to touch themselves, and some people just listen to one four seven, two five eight, or three six nine, Hu 12 Zhang doesn't even have a gun.

In short, after graduating, I was addicted to chess and couldn't extricate myself, and I began to learn the basics of chess systematically. Let's start with the basic killing methods, white-faced checkmate, Haidilao moon kill, lying groove horse, hanging wildebeest, high hanging horse, horse car, fishing horse, octagonal horse...... Three marches. The killing method can be extended to a simple fixed endgame, for example, the white-faced killing method can be extended to the cannon single soldier to break the double soldier. Fishing horses can be extended to single horse catchers. The twin horses that extend from the drinking spring to the two horses are like the whole thing.

But in the six months between graduation and the Spring Festival, I still didn't reach the point where I could support myself with the income from chess competitions alone. At most, it is to participate in small chess competitions organized by some merchants and shopping malls, and the good ones can be about a few hundred yuan, and the few are rewarded with a few products with acceptable prices. Competitions with high prize money organized by enterprises or municipal units still cannot be rewarded.

When my uncle came home from the army to visit his family, my father invited my uncle to my house. After dinner, my uncle casually talked about chess. The reason why I call him Uncle is because he is the youngest of my father's brothers, and he is 11 years older than me, so I have always called him Uncle with confidence. When I heard him talk about chess, I couldn't help but play a few games against him, which played into my father's hands.

I lost the first set badly. I was not convinced and asked to come again, in the second game, the uncle wanted to let me double the horse, I didn't agree, he said, you can win first, and then say, the result is a draw. The third set gave me a horse, and I still lost. Until the evening, when the uncle was leaving, he finally made a plate. When my dad sent my uncle outside the door, he vaguely heard my uncle say to my dad: "You can't be in a hurry about this, he has to understand this situation himself, and it's not good to take it hard." ”

The next night, we fought together again, and after a lot of thought, I won the first set when I went it alone. Then the second set gave me 5 first, first lose and then win, until I got 2 first.

On the third day, I finally played to let me draw first, and I began to draw without conceding a disc or letting the first draw. But no matter how first and second you can't win a game, you can't ask for a draw. Finally, when my uncle was leaving, he asked me to send him off, and he told me for a long time on a stone that the villagers often used to cool off.

Probably that he was already quite good at playing chess in their 47th Army, and often the leaders of the troops asked him to play chess, and then they also said that my chess level was okay among his peers. Then the conversation changed and said that although a person's life is very long, the golden period of life is still very short, so it is still necessary to do something in the golden age. Going your own way and letting others say go is just an ideal state, or a manifestation of irresponsibility to oneself or at least to one's family. At the very least, you should consider the hopes and feelings of your family, and at the very least, you should be responsible for yourself, if you think you have a good idea, but your father does not accept it, I can help you convince your father. But now you can't support yourself by chess alone, you have to be able to survive in this society by yourself, and then I support you to continue to study chess as a hobby, what do you think?

It turns out that my father is also well-intentioned
