"Haha! Lao Zeng's family, actually, I always thought that the kid who chased your daughter back then was really good! Although what that kid did wasn't a good thing, I know that kid didn't do it to get your approval, I haven't seen such a spirited kid in a long time! ”

Sitting in front of Lao Zeng, the old man who also retired from his high position.

"Since you have a guest at your house, I won't cheat at your house today, and I should go back!"

The old man standing opposite Lao Zeng seemed to have lost interest in the chessboard in front of him that had not yet been completed.

"Stay, how much more can you eat as an old man, and I want to finish this game of chess!"

"Haha! No! I don't have much of the mood to stay here for your family's reunion! Also, today's chess game is like this, I think your mind is no longer on this, in the next down, it makes no sense for me to win, think about how to go next, tomorrow we will compete with each other! ”

Looking at this chessboard, Lao Zeng showed a peaceful smile.

I played a lot of chess with Lao Bai, every time the chess game entered this point, it would always be a one-step endgame, staring at this chess game, looking at this scale, the number of chess pieces in my hands and the opponent's hands was comparable, when the chess pieces in my hands had two rooks and one gun, obviously had an advantage over the other party, but I was forced to a dead end, walking is also death, not going is death, such an endgame, so that I don't know how to start.

"It's time to take a good look, too! Such a situation has never ended, which makes me, an old bone, a little embarrassed! ”

Games like chess have always been an ancient Chinese tradition, but nowadays, with the continuous progress of society, people often ignore many of the essences.

Now only these old people like this kind of thing, they are idle and boring in the afternoon, find a few confidants, and set up a game of chess, especially those who have had brilliant achievements on the battlefield, are used to the kind of picture of fighting on the battlefield with a spear, and now the stable era has made them lose a lot of motivation to fight.

Only on this chessboard can you still find the feeling of the past.

"Such an endgame does not need to follow the conventional thinking, the chess field is like a battlefield, but many times, we need more reflection and let our team return to a wave!"

Looking at the chessboard, Guo Xihao interrupted Lao Zeng's thoughts, which were still pondering, and said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, I'm a true gentleman who doesn't say anything about chess, but I also have a deep study of chess!"

In fact, just when the two were playing chess, Guo Xihao entered the room, and noticed from a distance that two unattractive old men playing chess on the balcony were silently playing chess here.

Knowing that he was going to start a meal, he came to this balcony at the strong request of his mother, and said cautiously.

"Defend to defend?"

It seems that there has never been such an idea in Lao Zeng's concept, and he has always been the one who is at the forefront of the charge, and Shou does not seem to fit his character.

"Try! I'm your enemy! ”

Guo Xihao didn't say anything, and sat directly opposite Lao Zeng, holding a chessboard in his hand, like the momentum of King's Landing.

"Shou?"

Looking at his two rooks on the chessboard, both placed in the opponent's camp, he can take the role of the head of the enemy general at all times.

It seems that it is really not easy to get one of them back.

After pondering for a moment, staring at his chessboard, looking at the layout of the opposing camp, Lao Zeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and a new concept appeared in front of his eyes.

Thinking about the general all the time, I can't imagine that my camp is in danger, and if this stalemate continues, I am always one step behind the other party.

So in the end, the person who loses is actually himself.

"What a step to defend and attack! Wonderful! ”

For a long time, I couldn't understand how to play this chess game, and the final result was always that I lost, but now it seems that I have found a new opportunity.

Watching himself turn defeat into victory, a rare smile appeared on Lao Zeng's face.

"Guo Xihao, right?"

Retracting his excited expression from the chessboard, Lao Zeng stared at the young man in front of him, looked at his nephew, and said with a smile.

"Know me?"

"Well, I haven't introduced myself yet, have I? How? ”

Listening to the old man say his name so directly, it made Guo Xihao feel a little incredible.

"What? Is it strange that I know you? Is it strange that I know my nephew? Actually, I should have gone to you a long time ago, I've suffered you for so many years! ”

Lao Zeng stood up from his position, walked to Guo Xihao's side and put his arm on Guo Xihao's body: "If I hadn't arranged for Li Ruyuan to tell you everything, I don't think you would have come to the door now!" ”

Looking at this old man who is old but has a strong mind, Guo Xihao doesn't know what to say, just as he doesn't know the old man standing in front of him, let alone in Kyoto, even in the whole of China, he is one of the most important figures.

There is the Li family in the south and the Zeng family in the north, and the biggest person in the Zeng family is standing in front of Guo Xihao.

"Why can't you call someone?"

Looking at Guo Xihao's sluggish face, Lao Zeng asked with a smile.

"Grandpa..."

Just saw his mother, he had already shed a lot of tears, and now when he saw his grandfather, Guo Xihao didn't know what to say, just stood next to his grandfather and whispered.

"Hey... Shrewd! Ha ha! ”

I used to think that my mother only existed, but I didn't think that there were so many relatives on my mother's side.

"Got acquainted?"

Just when the two were standing together, Guo Xihao's mother came over, and the two of them, who thought that the atmosphere would be deadlocked, couldn't imagine such a happy relationship.

"Xuanmei, father is sorry for you! For so many years, you have neglected such an excellent son..."

The person who made Xuanmei leave and was forced to leave his son in the first place was actually himself.

At that time, Lao Zeng was still young and arrogant, and he always felt that his daughter should marry the right person, and then time told him that everything was wrong with him.

I have three daughters, the eldest daughter did what she said, married a person who was also in the high-level, the strength of the Zeng family, and let the son born by the other party follow her own surname, but even so, she couldn't resist the political turmoil, and finally because of political disputes, her husband left this world prematurely, and her eldest daughter ended her life prematurely because she couldn't stand the oppression of the family.

The eldest daughter is very obedient, but because of her father, she has not been happy all her life, and it seems that only the moment of death is when she is the happiest.

The eldest daughter's only son also left his family because of his mother's departure.

The second daughter is Guo Xihao's mother, Guo Xihao's father was useless, like a little hooligan Guo Xiongtian together.

At that time, I was strongly opposed, but Xuanmei's personality was extremely similar to her when she was young, and no matter what method she used, it would be useless.

Helpless, I can only deny this daughter, but Xuanmei is my daughter after all, and even if she is ruthless, she can't give up her daughter in vain.

When he was stubborn and knew that Guo Xiongtian and the people of the Li family had a holiday, he once threatened his daughter to leave Guo Xiongtian.

But his daughter is still as stubborn as ever, but in the next few years, when Guo Xihao was born in this world, his daughter came back inexplicably.

"I don't remember the conditions at that time, but the result was that your mother and son didn't see each other for so long, so I'm a sinner..."

Lao Zeng seemed to think of something, but in the end, he simply ignored it.

No matter what Guo Xihao's attitude is at the moment, he always wants Guo Xihao to know the truth of the matter.

"Heh..."

showed a flat smile, in fact, Guo Xihao also wanted to investigate the reason, but it seems that this is no longer a matter of concern to him, everything has passed for so long, and now there is no need to be entangled.

"If I were young, or the young and frivolous me I was five years ago, maybe I wouldn't let anyone go! No matter what method is used, mine will let the other party get the price due, but now I am not the person I was at that time, I was young at that time, and I always seemed to look like I didn't know the height of the sky, but in the past few years, I have changed a lot! These old calendars have passed, and I don't need to dwell on these..."

Looking at Guo Xihao with a little relief, Lao Zeng smiled and nodded.

The prime minister has a good boat in his belly, and such a person is his nephew.

A meal that lasts the longest, from just after dark until late at night.

During the meal, Guo Xihao got to know these people in his mother's family, from his mother, to his grandmother and grandfather.

It doesn't matter how outsiders evaluate his grandparents Guo Xihao, but his grandparents give him a peaceful face.

Late at night, when the meal was cleaned up, Miao Xin didn't want to stay here, and shouted to leave the military compound and leave Guo Xihao here alone.

After eating, it was still a long time, my grandfather pulled himself to play chess, and several people who were called goddesses in front of outsiders all gathered happily together to chat about family life at the moment.

"It's been a long time since your mother has laughed so happily!"

The two of them were playing chess on the balcony, and Lao Zeng had long noticed that Guo Xihao's mind was not on the chessboard, and he had been staring at his mother and seemed to have never seen enough.

Looking at Guo Xihao's obsessive gaze, Lao Zeng smiled slightly, also looked at his own daughter, and said with a smile.

"I'm sorry I'm messing up!"

Turning his head in a panic and looking at his grandfather, Guo Xihao said in a panic.

"That's all for today! I've been pestering on the chessboard in the afternoon, it's been too long! I can't stand this old waist anymore, come out for a walk with me! ”

Guo Xihao wanted to say hello to his mother, but was stopped by Lao Zeng.

"Let them women do their thing, and the two of us will just go!"
