Chapter 370, Watching Chess
Liu Sheng saw that the golden bull was looking at him with a narrow face, grinning, smiling, if he didn't want to make fun of him, or if he had something to ask him, so he glared at him, "I'll settle accounts with you traitor later." β
"Brother Asheng, I officially understood a sentence today, what is close to Zhu Zhechi and what is close to ink black, my third sister who didn't even dare to speak out loud is now following you and learning to scold people with your mouth open, either stupid or traitor, do you two still have some new ideas?" Taurus was still hesitant to speak, but Liu Sheng stumbled and hurriedly shot back.
Liu Sheng listened, stretched out his hand and patted the head of the golden bull, the golden bull had already taken precautions, and before he finished speaking, he grinned and bent down to the back of Tian Fangzhou, Tian Fangzhou protected the golden bull very righteously, and looked at Liu Sheng defiantly.
"Like, who are you calling stupid? It would be nice if my sister would be willing to help us for a few months, and I still have a lot of things to do in my house. β
"In short, I'll just say a word, if you don't want to leave your sister behind, you will be responsible for the construction and decoration here, anyway, this is what was said at the beginning, otherwise, the shares here will not take you." Liu Sheng didn't believe that he couldn't cure Tian Fangzhou.
"Why are you? At the beginning, you pulled me into the water, I originally said that I could start a small decoration company after graduation, but you had to pull me to cooperate with you to open an inn, and now you want to get rid of me, no way! β
Tian Fangzhou was not afraid of Liu Sheng's threat, because he knew that as long as Liu Sheng wanted to chase Jin Liu, he would definitely not dare to really offend him.
"When will a small renovation company be able to afford a house and a car?" Liu Sheng gave Tian Fangzhou a disdainful look.
On the other side, Jin Liu, who had come back to taste, also stretched out his hand to the golden bull. The main reason is that she didn't expect Taurus to make fun of her and Liu Sheng, her little face was red, and her apricot eyes were glaring. followed by a scolding, "Stinky Taurus, you even arranged me, and you dare to say that you are not a traitor?" β
Seeing that she had only reacted for a long time, Taurus pursed her lips, "Third sister, do you know how the bear died?" β
"I just know how you died." Jin Liu also chased the golden bull and made trouble.
"What a noise. It's so noisy that I can't even estimate it. Jin Yang walked out of the room with a straight face.
"How much?" Several voices asked at the same time.
The room was instantly quiet, Jin Liu stopped making trouble with the Golden Bull, and Tian Fangzhou stopped quarreling with Liu Sheng. A few steps ran in front of Jin Yang.
"What do you estimate, all of you have such a loud voice, how can I estimate?" Jin Yang rolled his eyes angrily at Tian Fangzhou.
"How much?" Jin Zhu saw that there was a little pride in Jin Yang's eyes that couldn't be concealed, and guessed that she must have finished estimating the score.
β650γβ Jin Yang reported a number. She dared to lie and play with Tian Fangzhou, Liu Sheng, and even Li Xiang. But she didn't dare to let Jin Zhu worry.
Tian Fangzhou heard that her score was so high, and she should be able to go to the National People's Congress in the imperial capital, and it happened that the law major of the National People's Congress was relatively strong, and she could be regarded as having her wish, so she scratched her ears and cheeks with joy, and seemed to be more excited than if he had passed the exam himself.
Jin Zhu was also relieved when she heard this, she was quite satisfied with this result, because Jin Yang relied on her own efforts. Unlike the gold beads, it takes some advantage of rebirth.
"Jin Yang. Tomorrow I'll take you to buy a graduation gift. Tian Fangzhou waved his hand arrogantly.
"No, I have a brother-in-law, a sister, and a sister who can earn money, so when will it be your turn to buy me a graduation gift? Who are you? Jin Yang pushed Tian Fangzhou away.
"It's okay, I know who you are mine, what kind of computer do you like, what about the mobile phone?" Tian Fangzhou was still good-natured and coaxed Jin Yang.
Jin Zhu saw that Tian Fangzhou did not avoid suspicion at all, and hurriedly sent Jin Liu and Jin Niu back to their own room, and she also followed Li Xiang to the attic, leaving the living room to Jin Yang and Tian Fangzhou.
She knew that Jin Yang was an assertive person, and besides, the college entrance examination was over, so she didn't want to restrain her anymore, and it was up to her to follow her in the future.
That night, Jin Yang and Tian Fangzhou didn't talk long before going back to the house to sleep, saying that they had just finished the exam and just wanted to sleep, and they didn't want to think about anything else.
From this day on, Tian Fangzhou began to stay at Liu Sheng's house, for three consecutive days, every afternoon after class, he would hold a bunch of books and squeeze the subway for half an hour, eat dinner at Jin Zhu's house, and after the meal, he either went to see the calligraphy and painting pictures by himself, or accompanied Jin Yang to watch TV or do a travel strategy to Tokyo.
This year's Dragon Boat Festival happens to be Friday, Li Xiang's plane is five o'clock in the afternoon on Thursday, although it is already more than nine o'clock in the evening after arriving in Tokyo, but because it is the first time to go abroad, and live near Ginza, after completing the check-in procedures, several people threw their luggage into the room, and came out of the hotel, and went to Ginza first.
The prosperity here is beyond the imagination of Jinzhu, although it is already more than ten o'clock in the evening, but the street is still as bright as day, the shops on both sides are lined up, the door is like a market, but unfortunately, what is sold is generally a luxury product of a big brand, which is not very suitable for Jinzhu them.
Rao is so, but seeing that there are suitable clothes and bags with big discounts, Jin Zhu also bought one or two for everyone, Li Xiang and Liu Sheng have a little more, because their identities are different, and the occasions they attend are different, and they definitely need a few clothes to support the faΓ§ade.
After walking around for a while, several people found a snack bar on the street, and one asked for a bowl of ramen, a plate of Japanese sweets, a plate of sushi and a plate of sashimi, and everyone simply had a supper and returned to the hotel.
Early the next morning, Jin Zhu and the others went straight to Kyoto, due to the limited time this time, Li Xiang meant to stay in Kyoto for a few days, to feel the charm of this thousand-year-old city and appreciate its rich history and culture.
As for the rest of Japan, I will come back next time, and it is not far anyway.
Along the way, Li Xiang briefly introduced the city of Kyoto to Jinzhu, saying that the city was built in imitation of the ancient Chinese capital, which is generally believed to be the Luoyang City of the Tang Dynasty, built around 800 AD, and has been the capital of Japan from its establishment until the middle of the 19th century. What it has left to the world today is an old garden city.
Of course, this is only an intuitive conclusion that Li Xiang has reached purely from the perspective of architecture.
In fact, Kyoto's long history has meant that it has inherited more than just an architectural heritage. It also inherits the cultural heritage of painting, sculpture, gardening, historical relics, folk art, cultural relics and many other aspects, which is why Li Xiang wants to bring the gold beads to live for a few days.
Perhaps, Jin Zhu can find a little nostalgia or a sense of identity from this ancient city.
For three days in a row, Li Xiang and Jin Zhu did not go anywhere, either visiting temples or wandering the streets, Li Xiang constantly used his camera to take pictures of the layout of the surrounding buildings and gardens, and Jin Zhu was on the side to help him explain the ingenuity of these layouts and the implicit feng shui doctrines.
These are also what she learned in her previous life from the geographical classics at home and the Book of Changes. It's a pity that I only learned a little bit of skin, but it's enough to be Li Xiang's teacher, because few people pay attention to these in modern times. Li Xiang didn't understand it at all.
Liu Sheng and the others naturally had no interest in these, but they couldn't come in vain, so Liu Sheng took Jin Yang and a few people to rent a car. After a few sightseeing spots nearby, the focus is on finding Kyoto's food.
On the afternoon of the third day. Li Xiang and Jin Zhu were visiting Kyoto University when they suddenly received a call from Liu Sheng, saying that they had found an authentic kaiseki restaurant near Kyoto University and asked if they were interested.
When Jin Zhu heard that it was not far away, he discussed it with Li Xiang, and the two decided to go to meet Liu Sheng first, and then lead everyone to Kyoto University to have a look.
Who knew that when Li Xiang and Jin Zhu arrived at Liu Sheng's restaurant, Liu Sheng and the others were arguing with two Japanese people in their fifties.
It turned out that they came a little early because of Liu Sheng. This time is not a meal, and there is no one in the restaurant. There were only two Japanese men in their fifties playing Go, so Taurus stood by curiously and watched the game.
After all, Taurus is a child under the age of thirteen, and when he saw the key point, he forgot to watch chess and said that he was a true gentleman, and pointed out one of them.
Of course, this "don't do it" is just Jin Yang's assumptions, the two Japanese see that Taurus is a child, and they don't mean to embarrass Taurus, but just propose to play a game with Taurus, because the man sees that the step that Taurus just pointed out is indeed very subtle.
But no one can understand Japanese, Jin Yang is a hot temper, and he has a bit of emotional prejudice against Japan, so when he saw the two men pulling the golden bull and not letting him go, Jin Yang quarreled with each other.
But the problem is that the other party can't understand what Jin Yang said, Liu Sheng stepped forward to explain a few words in English, but it seems that the chicken and duck are also speaking, because the other party doesn't seem to understand English either.
"You speak quietly, Jin Yang, how many times have I told you, whether you are at home or out of the house, you are not allowed to shout loudly." As soon as Jin Zhu entered the door, she pulled Jin Yang aside, because she could see that the two Japanese were very elegant, and at first glance they were well educated, and they were by no means the kind of people who were unreasonable and messing around.
Jin Yang was reprimanded by Jin Zhu, muttered two sentences, but didn't speak again, and on the other side, Li Xiang also began to communicate with the two Japanese, he used writing, writing traditional Chinese characters, because he knew that many Japanese people could not speak Chinese, but they could still understand Chinese characters.
Sure enough, when the other party saw that Li wanted to use Chinese characters to communicate with him, he also picked up the pen.
Knowing that the other party just wanted to play a game with the Taurus, Li Xiang pressed the Taurus in front of the shorter, "Boy, who told you to talk a lot?" This time, take out your housekeeping skills, play a good game with him, win, and go back to get a prize. β
"I said earlier, I wanted to play chess with him." The golden bull stood up again, bowed to the other in a serious manner, and then sat down.
When the Taurus was playing chess, another man also kept staring at the chessboard, and after about forty minutes, the Taurus became more and more struggling, so he frequently looked at Jinzhu when he was playing chess, and even asked Jinzhu how to go.
"How does the eldest sister usually teach you? Think about it yourself. Jin Zhu shook his head and rejected the golden bull.
It's not that she doesn't want to teach, but she knows that this is a kind of courtesy, and it is also a kind of respect for the contestants.
After about ten more minutes, the defeat of the Taurus was already visible, he took the initiative to stand up and bowed to the other party, "I lost this game, because I am not good at learning." β
Before Li wanted to translate the words of the golden bull, the other party had already understood the meaning of the golden bull and shook his head at the golden bull.
Another gentleman next to him was surprised to see that Taurus had supported him for so long at a young age, and he also wanted to play a game with Taurus, Taurus pointed to the sky outside and touched his belly, at this time, the man who had just played chess with Taurus invited everyone to the backyard.
The backyard is a large courtyard with a cave, five or six trees are planted on the green lawn, although I can't recognize what kind of tree it is, but it is not short at a glance, the house is a typical Japanese building, old, but not dilapidated.
The two welcomed Jin Zhu into a study, and there were a lot of calligraphy and paintings and photos hanging on the wall of the study, among which there was a photo of the person Jin Zhu knew, that is, Jin Niu's current Go teacher Wu Wei, the man next to Jin Zhu had never seen it, but his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to the man who played chess with Jin Niu just now.
The man who played chess with the golden bull took out a brush and wrote on the paper, his name is Tanaka, the owner of the restaurant, and the other is Ito, a professor at Kyoto University.
Although he won the game against Taurus by a narrow margin, he was a forty-year-old chess player, and Taurus was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, so he was shocked and admired Taurus at the same time.
Jin Niu took the brush, just wrote a few words but found that he had a lot of traditional Chinese characters and could not write, so he handed the pen to Jin Zhu, Jin Zhu took the brush, and told SΓΉ Tanaka Jin Niu is now studying under Wu Wei, and has studied Go for a total of five years.
After hearing that the golden bull was Wu Wei's apprentice, the other party seemed quite excited, and pointed to a word on the wall, Jin Zhu took a closer look, it turned out that the word was also sent by Wu Wei, and the other man in the photo was Tanaka's younger brother, who used to be a Japanese Go player, but unfortunately died of illness a few years ago.
Tanaka pointed to the letter, and then pointed to the small block written by Jin Zhu, meaning that he wanted Jin Zhu to give her a piece of writing, Jin Zhu smiled and gave this opportunity to Li Xiang.
Li Xiang didn't shirk, picked up the pen and wrote eight words, "Peace is rare, friendship lasts forever", when the payment was made, Ito on the side recognized the name Li Xiang, and then looked at Li Xiang's face carefully, and pulled Li Xiang to chat. (To be continued.) )
