Checkmate!

Zhang Tan didn't mean to give up to the future old man at all, as the first cannon, the crooked veteran, and a crutch horse, the marshal of the red side would die and couldn't die anymore.

Su Wenzhi gritted his teeth and sighed, he was just one step or two steps away, and he could checkmate Zhang Tan: "This game has taken a wrong step, let's come again." ”

Zhang Tan, who was victorious, was busy arranging chess pieces, and at the same time couldn't help but think proudly, whether he wanted to let the old man take a few steps, and the first time he came to the door, he would kill the old man without leaving a piece of armor, it was too cruel.

"After all, it's Sasha's father, although his attitude towards me is so-so, but there are no dramatic scenes such as bloody beating of mandarin ducks, thirty years of Hedong, and don't bully the poor youth, I should give him face, go down casually, leave some strength at the critical moment, and lose a little."

Zhang Tan was proud in his heart, his hands couldn't help but be a little faster, and he didn't think much about it. As a result, he was very happy and sad, and he didn't have to stay hard, and he was directly killed by Su Wenzhi, a serial general with two cannons. Looking at the veteran who had all his cars and artillery, but had nowhere to go, Zhang Tan was speechless, and the situation was a little worse.

"Young man, you are normal in chess, as soon as I get serious, I will kill you in just a few steps." Su Wenzhi picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea for a long time, and made a lonely gesture of a master.

What a big-tailed wolf!

Zhang Tan was unhappy in his heart, but there was no rudeness on his face, but he changed his tone of admiration and said: "Uncle is very good at chess, I have to obey." ”

Su Wenzhi didn't mention restarting, and continued to drink tea and said: "There is no trick to playing chess in this game, just to play with others more, my strength is nothing in front of the masters." If you practice more, you will be able to surpass me sooner or later, and I don't have many opportunities to play chess now. Only four or five times a year. ”

This forced pretense is too superficial, it seems that he has forgotten, and the current record is one win and one loss. However, he wanted to put on the shelf of his elders, and Zhang Tan couldn't say anything, so he could only keep nodding his head in agreement.

I don't know if chess wins chess. Su Wenzhi's mood soon became happy, and he became more and more pleasing to the eye when he saw the "defeated general" Zhang Tan, and the chat became more and more casual.

Zhang Tan himself is not a wooden person, he has rich experience, and he can catch Su Wenzhi's topic. He is not a naïve or arrogant person, and he answers decently and steadily. By the time it was time to eat, Su Wenzhi had already affirmed Zhang Tan, a young man, and recognized Zhang Tan's relationship with his baby daughter Susa.

As for Tao Lan, she was very satisfied with Zhang Tan. After whispering to Susa in the kitchen, she was obviously more satisfied.

Young, golden, talented, not bad, and very good to Susa. How can you not obey the old saying: "The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the happier she becomes." ”

"Eat more vegetables and try this West Lake vinegar fish, which is our family's favorite dish for Sasha."

"Oh, I'll try it." Zhang Tan stretched out his chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of fish meat, which was soft and fragrant in the mouth. Immediately complimented, "Hmm. The West Lake vinegar fish made by my aunt is really delicious. ”

But in my heart, I was thinking: I am used to eating pickles, this sour and sweet taste......

In fact, the taste of Zhejiang cuisine is lighter and sweeter, while the Heqi cuisine that Zhang Tan eats at home belongs to Hui cuisine, and the taste is more salty and fresh. Soy sauce is also eaten a little more, and the flavor is a little heavier. At first glance, I didn't feel delicious when I ate such a light and sweet dish.

It can only be a joke.

Fortunately, Susa knows Zhang Tan's taste, and there are a few dishes on the table, and she knows it as soon as she eats it. It was specially roasted for Zhang Tan, and the taste was really salty. So on the scene, I saw Zhang Tan praising those light dishes on the one hand, and then after sandwiching a pair of chopsticks, he basically never moved again.

A few plates of dishes with a heavier flavor are very hilarious.

At night, Zhang Tan stayed at Susa's house, Susa's family opened an electromechanical factory, there was no shortage of money, the house in the community was relatively large, and there was just a room vacated for Zhang Tan to live in.

Night falls.

The family sat and watched the TV for a while, and the rebroadcast of "The Condor Heroes", this TV series has not stopped since its premiere on the National Day, and it is not a TV station that is rebroadcasting.

Watching TV, chatting, and by ten o'clock, the show was over.

Zhang Tan went to the bathroom and took a bath with a bath bomb, lay down in the guest room, and after a while, Susa quietly opened the door and came in. Even though he and Susa had seen their parents, they were still arranged to live separately instead of sleeping together.

Got into the quilt, and the two of them didn't make any big moves, after all, they were new tonight, and it was not suitable for fighting.

I hugged and said the conversation.

Susa asked, "My parents are good, aren't they?" ”

Zhang Tan nodded: "It's good." ”

"I saw that when my dad first met, he was not very enthusiastic about you, I thought you didn't have a common language, but I didn't expect to see you chatting happily during dinner."

Zhang Tan smiled and said: "Your father and I really don't have much in common, he likes to talk about politics, economy, or the international situation." You know, I don't know much about current affairs, politics, or economics, and I'm not interested in it, but if I talk about art, I can still get involved. ”

"So what were you talking about, talking all afternoon?"

"What are you talking about, it's basically your dad over there, and I'm concentrating on being the audience, occasionally expressing admiration or curiosity...... It's not too difficult, it just takes a bit of patience. ”

"Hee-hee, my dad is like that, he likes to talk about current affairs." Seeing that her boyfriend was happily with her family, Susa was relieved.

……

In the next few days, Zhang Tan and Susa's footsteps traveled all over the streets and alleys of Jinhua City. Until the morning of the 29th day of the lunar month, the two said goodbye to Susa's parents and flew back to Heqi by plane.

This year, there are only 29 days in the lunar month, which means that tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve.

Back in Gangji's hometown, Zhang Tan took Susa and officially went to the homes of several uncles to meet, and they all gave Jinhua ham, a local specialty of Jinhua City. Then I drove to my grandfather's side, and several uncles and aunts also sent Jinhua ham to their homes.

So far, Susa, as the quasi-daughter-in-law of the old Zhang family, stayed in Gangji to celebrate the New Year together.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a large family had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at the uncle's house.

Pushing the cup and changing the lamp is naturally inevitable.

By the time the two-hour meal was over, there were already fireworks outside.

"Let's do it, come over and help me get the fireworks!" While carrying fireworks from his house, Zhang Tan shouted loudly to a few cousins and cousins to come out and set off fireworks together.

The family is rich, and Zhang Tan is a person who knows how to enjoy.

Fireworks are specifically looking for the kind of powerful ones to buy, anyway, they are in the countryside, and they can be set off as much as they want. Zhang Tan used the studio's commercial vehicle to pull the A-level fireworks bomb, and he pulled two cars home. Dozens of bundles of fireworks were placed in the backyard storage room of the small western-style building, piled up like a hill.

If there is a fire, it is estimated that the courtyard of Zhang Tan's house will be destroyed.

The fireworks had to be set off together to be strong enough, and several big and small cousins kept moving the fireworks to the side of the road, lined up. Elders, women and children stood in front of their homes, waiting to watch.

"It's all set up, let's do it together, the eldest brother points from there to the middle, the second brother points from the middle to the eldest brother, and the third brother and I point this side."

"Let's get started."

One by one, the fireworks were lit.

A huge explosion burst out in the sky, from one or two at the beginning, to a dozen or so at the back that went up to the sky together, the whole sky was lit up by fireworks, and the brilliance was incomparable.

This 2005 year was the curtain call in the fireworks.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Tan was twenty-one years old. (To be continued.) )
