Easier said than done.

Although Zhou Shaojin had the courage to shout at Cheng Chi, the next day, she lingered in the cabin for a long time before taking the chess book to Cheng Chi's residence.

Cheng Chi acted as if nothing had happened, and told Lang Yue to set up the chessboard.

Zhou Shaojin mustered up the courage to call out to Lang Yue, and said to Cheng Chi: "Uncle Chi, your chess skills are much higher than mine, you and I play chess as if you are wrestling with a child. Although I have learned Go from Aunt Shen these days, I still can't understand the chess game! ”

Cheng Chi has always felt that people have different talents, and he doesn't like to teach those who make up for their mistakes with hard work.

Zhou Shaojin is obviously not smart.

But Zhou Shaojin had already walked in front of him, spread the chess game on the small table of the Luohan bed, pointed to a few chess pieces in the upper left corner of it and said: "I know that I should make a move here, but I don't understand why I should make a move next to this, if I just want to make a living eye, isn't it right next to it?" If the white man does not play this hand, but makes the next move here, then his move will not be in vain? ”

Cheng Chi didn't expect her to look so seriously, and the displeasure in her heart couldn't help but dilute a little.

He pointed to a few chess pieces in the upper right corner and said, "Look, he still has a few moves on his side." If the piece is placed in the position you just pointed at, the piece will be vacated, and the pieces in the upper right corner will be targeted. It is only by placing the pieces in this position that they watch each other out. "You see, black is like this, whether white is playing from the left or the right, black is going to use this as a point to extend to the left and right, and white will become very troublesome...... That's why it's a great move......"

Cheng Chi kept assuming.

Zhou Shaojin cherished such an opportunity very much, and he couldn't care about being ashamed, and said in a loud voice: "Uncle Chi, slow down, I haven't understood it yet!" ”

Although Cheng Chi doesn't often play chess with others, every time he sets up chess games, he is surrounded by a group of Yiqi masters, and no one has said bluntly like Zhou Shaojin that he can't understand and let him play slowly.

He had no choice but to slow down and explain to her one hand at a time.

Zhou Shaojin felt that this was still not clear, so she simply ordered Lang Yue to grind ink for her, and she supported Zhang Xiaoji on the Luohan bed, Cheng Chi said, she remembered it.

went back and forth like this, making Cheng Chi lose his temper.

When Mrs. Guo heard about it, she fell into deep thought.

Mama Lu, who told Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Chi about playing chess as a joke to Mrs. Guo, was a little uneasy.

She has served Mrs. Guo for decades, and it stands to reason that she should be able to touch Mrs. Guo's temper more or less, and she is usually proud of it. But at this time, she couldn't guess what Mrs. Guo was thinking. She stood there with bated breath, not daring to come out.

After a long while, Mrs. Guo whispered to her: "You go and help me call Qin Ziping." ”

Mama Lu was relieved and called Qin Ziping.

Mrs. Guo sent Mama Lu, asked her to close the door, and beckoned Qin Ziping to talk.

"Ziping, your family has been the chief steward of our family since your great-great-grandfather," Old Madam Guo stared at Qin Ziping with burning eyes, like a tiger staring at a rabbit, "By your generation, it is already the sixth generation." Our two families say that they are masters and servants, but they have won the trust of our old lady and master more than the brothers of the same clan. I'm too old to be a director. But Shiro is my son, my youngest son, who has not yet married and is not an adult. I can ignore other people's affairs, but I can't let go of his affairs. Tell me the truth, is there something wrong with his business? ”

Qin Ziping was stunned and said, "Why do you think so?" The fourth master's business is doing well, and there are no problems! ”

"You don't have to fool me." Old Madam Guo's face sank, "If he is not in business, then what are his plans, and he still said that I must oppose the plan...... Otherwise, he would not have been able to patiently accompany me to Putuo Mountain to worship incense! ”

Qin Ziping pinched a cold sweat in his heart, and said half-truthfully: "Old lady, I didn't mean to hide it from you. But you also know that I am the entourage of the fourth master, and I don't dare to tell you about his old man, so don't force me! ”

Old Madam Guo sneered and said, "You three brothers, Shiro's favorite is your second brother, it was because I saw you as honest, reliable, and thoughtful, so I sent you to Shiro's house as an errand...... If I can send you to his house, I can also bring you back. You have to think it through. ”

Beads of sweat the size of beans fell on Qin Ziping's forehead, and it took a long time before he whispered: "The fourth master wants to build a dock in Beitang in Tianjin in partnership with others, so he sold this year's Yanyin and the loom in Hangzhou...... Although this business is profitable, before making money, it can throw as much silver as it can. Now the family doesn't know, and when they do, I'm afraid there will be an uproar. ”

Old Madam Guo was still a little skeptical: "It's just a matter of silver, Shiro is not so unbreathable." ”

Qin Ziping had no choice but to continue to make up: "It seems that there are still several princes involved, and this matter is handled by the fourth master himself, and I can't tell you the specifics." ”

Old Madam Guo frowned and said, "Shiro is not the one who is eager for success...... How could it get mixed up with a few princes? ”

"This," Qin Ziping really broke out in a cold sweat this time, "I don't know either...... The fourth master has always been a dragon who does things, but I really can't guess it. ”

Mrs. Guo gently brushed the floating leaves on the tea, and was silent for a long time, and then said in a condensed voice: "You go down!" Don't bring this up to Shiro. ”

"Old lady rest assured." Qin Ziping felt the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and said with a wry smile, "How dare I tell the fourth master about this kind of thing!" The fourth master knows that he can't peel my skin! ”

"If you know, it's good." Old Madam Guo said in a deep voice and waved her hand.

Qin Ziping went straight to Cheng Chi's cabin.

Cheng Chi was telling Zhou Shaojin about chess games, so he had to hide in the tea room on the side, and seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Zhou Shaojin got up to say goodbye.

Qin Ziping hurriedly asked to see him and told Cheng Chi what had happened.

Cheng Chi didn't think about it and praised Qin Ziping: "I didn't expect you to be quite flexible when you were critical." Well done here, I made a note of it. In the future, if the ancestor of the second room asks, you will all say so. By the way, you should spread the news again, so that no one will have to explain when asked. ”

Qin Ziping let out a long sigh.

After lunch, Mrs. Guo talked about the Yutai ticket number: "...... At first, I wasn't even optimistic about it, but you did it anyway. There is no shortage of chewing at home, and you don't have to worry too much about others, just do what you want. It's a big deal, let's start all over again. ”

Cheng Chi smiled and responded.

Zhou Shaojin always felt that Mrs. Guo had something to say.

When she came out of Mrs. Guo's house, she sent the Spring Festival Gala to inquire, and said, "It should be about what happened in the past two days, otherwise the old lady would not have said such a thing today." ”

The Spring Festival Gala was put in my heart, and two days later, I told her: "I heard that the fourth master took a fancy to a piece of land in Tianjin and wanted to build a wharf there, but everyone objected, and the fourth master felt very uncomfortable." ”

And so it goes!

Zhou Shaojin said: "Do you know which piece of land in Tianjin it is?" ”

In her previous life, she knew very little about these, and she didn't know if a wharf had been built in Tianjin, and she didn't know if the wharf made money.

The Spring Festival Gala shook his head: "Everyone said vaguely, it is estimated that they heard a few words when they were serving tea and pouring water." ”

Zhou Shaojin bowed his head, and he was even more careful when he went to learn chess with Cheng Chi.

Cheng Chi felt that although this little girl was not very smart, she was obedient and well-behaved, sometimes she knew what to do with one look, and she could hear the off-string sound in half a sentence, which made people feel very comfortable getting along, and he naturally became more patient when he talked about chess games.

Zhou Shaojin felt that Cheng Chi was the most amazing person she had met in her two lives.

Whether in good times or bad, he can act calmly without arrogance, anger, or anger.

Her brother-in-law Liao Shaotang once said that this kind of person is usually persevering, has strong perseverance, and has firm beliefs, and is a person who achieves great things.

So why did Uncle Chi leave the Cheng family?

Zhou Shaojin pondered in his heart.

Could it be that the ancestor of the second room forced it?

Uncle Chi is no matter how powerful he is, the ancestor of the second room is an elder who is several generations older than him, and he can only avoid his edge...... It can be seen that he was also a poor person in his previous life!

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Thinking about it this way, after she talked to Mrs. Guo every morning, she went to accompany Cheng Chi to play chess in the afternoon.

A few days later, they arrived in Changzhou.

Changzhou is located on the shore of Taihu Lake, up to Jingkou, down to Gusu, is one of the big wharves through the north and south, known as "three Wu important towns, eight Yi famous capital" said, the geographical location is very important, the population is also very prosperous.

But this is also one of the important strongholds of the Cao Gang.

Zhou Shaojin made up his mind early in the morning and detained Ji Ying in his cabin and did not show up.

Who knew that when she went to look for Ji Hotaru, Ji Hotaru was sleeping soundly.

Zhou Shaojin smiled dumbly.

When their ship docked, it was close to the time of the lantern, but the wharf was still full of pedestrians, carrying burdens to sell snacks, setting up stalls, disembarking and unloading ships, and tooth brokers chasing merchants...... Let the whole dock be noisy, but it is also full of market atmosphere.

Zhou Shaojin leaned on the window of the boat and watched with relish.

The Spring Festival Gala said: "Miss, you said, can we go ashore to buy something?" I promised Shi Xiang and Sister Zhixiang to help them buy a comb grate and go back. ”

Zhou Shaojin sighed and said, "I also promised my grandmother, aunt and sister to bring the comb back with a grate...... But do you think this scenario is appropriate? ”

It's because it's not suitable, so I ask with a fluke heart!

The Spring Festival Gala frowned.

Zhou Shaojin said: "I only went to Hangzhou to buy it." It is said that Hangzhou has everything. ”

But in the end, it's not as good as buying it locally!

The Spring Festival Gala thought in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it.

Someone shouted, "Is it the boat of the Cheng family in Jiuru Lane, Jinling Mansion?" and walked back and forth in front of the pier where sand boats were specially docked.

Zhou Shaojin heard Qin Ziping respond loudly: "I don't know which family's old age?" This is the boat of Cheng's family in Jiuru Lane, Jinling Mansion! ”
