Chapter 5 The pawn eats the old handsome

In the spacious living room, two men, one old and one young, are about to have a conversation.

The father-in-law chooses the son-in-law, and the mother-in-law chooses the daughter-in-law, which is a century-old tradition in China.

Lin Guodong spoke with undoubted strength, "I said Xiao Li, you have been dating Xinxin for more than a year, this is the first time you have come to my house, right?" ”

Li Qiang said with a smile: "Well, I have been dating Xinxin for a year and a month, and this is my first time coming to our house. He naturally heard the meaning of "my family" in Lin Guodong's words, so he took the opportunity to change "my family" to "our family".

Lin Guodong's face did not change, and he asked again: "I heard Xinxin say that you are in the express delivery business?" It's hard, isn't it? ”

Li Qiang said without humility or arrogance: "It's okay, I'm quite suitable for this job." ”

Lin Guodong nodded, but he didn't ask any more questions, and he was a little cold for a while.

Li Qiang swept around, and suddenly saw a pair of chess on the table, so he said, "Does uncle usually play chess?" ”

Lin Guodong said a little proudly: "It's just to play casually and win a few awards." He casually pointed to the table in the living room, on which were several trophies.

In fact, Li Qiang had already seen it, and when he heard Lin Guodong say this, he naturally slapped Lin Guodong a few times in a row, so that the atmosphere seemed much more harmonious.

Suddenly, Lin Guodong asked with a smile: "It's still early, it's not time to eat, why don't we play chess?" ”

Li Qiang hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't play chess well, I'm afraid I won't be able to let my uncle have fun." ”

Lin Guodong laughed and said generously: "It's okay, just pass the time." After saying that, he took the chess box and set it up on the tea table.

I heard Lin Xinyue say that her parents don't play mahjong, so Li Qiang doesn't have to worry about the routine of trying character at the poker table, but he didn't expect that his future father-in-law still has a hand of chess, so he really lifted a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

But the matter has come to this, Li Qiang can only do his best.

"Do you want to have a horse?"

Lin Guodong is a master who can achieve rankings in the unit, so he naturally has his confidence.

Li Qiang shook his head and said, "No, uncle doesn't have to let me go too far, I like fair games." ”

When Lin Guodong heard this, he lowered his eyelids and said, "Young man, in fact, the world is not as fair as you imagined. He sighed in his heart, it seems that the kid in front of him is still too young to understand the sinister society at all, and he is a little uneasy. But Lin Guodong is not the kind of person who sentences people to death with one sentence, so he said: "You Black Fang go first." ”

Li Qiang smiled at Lin Guodong, and walked away first to eat the soldiers, Lin Guodong smiled slightly, and jumped off his horse to protect the soldiers.

The two of you come and go, Lin Guodong is like Zhuge Liang who shakes a fan, he is confident, and Li Qiang is like Zhang Fei who is poor in tricks, and it takes a long time to take a step.

"Young people, be wary and impatient, and pump the car."

"Young man, don't be too aggressive, eat horses."

……

……

Not long after, on the chessboard, there were only two river crossers left on Li Qiang's side, as well as a horse and a cannon, while Lin Guodong had a horse, a cannon and a rook, and the two phases were complete, and the chances of winning were very large.

Lin Guodong thought he had won the game, so he pointed to the river crosser and said: "Xiao Li, I think you are like this river crosser, before crossing the river, you can't help yourself, you can only go forward one by one; After crossing the river, you can move left and right, but there are too many restrictions and you can't turn back. ”

Li Qiang said with a smile: "Uncle, I think the courage of the soldier crossing the river is commendable, and in the end, he may be able to soar into the sky and kill the old handsome." ”

Lin Guodong's face stiffened, and he originally planned to use this river crossing pawn to tell Li Qiang that he was not worthy of a daughter who graduated from a famous university and had excellent conditions, but he didn't expect Li Qiang to cross the river to kill the old handsome, and it seemed that he would definitely not let go.

"Crossing the river is useless, where can it compare to the 'car'? Rampage, advance and retreat freely......" Lin Guodong tried his best to distinguish but only saw Li Qiang with a smile on his face, and he didn't know that Li Qiang didn't listen at all, so he said: "We're not done yet, let's keep going." ”

Li Qiang nodded.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xinyue walked out of the kitchen at this time, "Li Qiang, go to the kitchen to serve the dishes, let's start eating." ”

Li Qiang looked at Lin Guodong, and Lin Guodong said, "Let's come back after eating." ”

So Li Qiang went to the kitchen to help, but after Zhao Li saw Li Qiang, she complained a little to her daughter, "Where is the reason to ask guests to come over to serve food?" ”

Li Qiang smiled and said that it was not in the way, and said that this place was as warm as his home, and the honey-wiped mouth made Zhao Li full of joy, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became.

At the dinner table, because Lin Guodong did not smoke or drink, none of the legendary wine table trials appeared, Li Qiang buried himself in eating throughout the whole process, and praised the delicious dishes from time to time, Zhao Li's smile became brighter and brighter, and he gave Li Qiang vegetables from time to time, but Lin Guodong's expression was the same, but he was worried.

"I'm afraid that my wife has fallen, and I have to take care of this last hurdle."

After eating, Zhao Li and Lin Xinyue went to wash the dishes and clean up the table, while Li Qiang and Lin Guodong continued the previous chess game.

Just like just now, Li Qiang scratched his ears and cheeks while playing chess, and Lin Guodong was humble.

After a while, Lin Guodong only felt that the overall situation had been decided, so he said: "Look, is this river crossing pawn useless?" This game seems to be won by uncle. "After that, we have to put away the chess...... This is his habit all along, as long as it is a must-win chess game, he will collect the chess in advance, and will not completely 'general' checkmate, this is to be a man to leave a line.

Li Qiang smiled and stretched out his hand to stop Lin Guodong, Lin Guodong's face was full of surprise, "Can't you see it?" ”

"Uncle, I think there's still something to do." Li Qiang said softly.

Li Qiang's performance made Lin Guodong a little angry, and he felt more and more that this kid was a little childish and not worthy of his daughter.

"In that case, I'll let you 'die'!" Lin Guodong meant not only this chess game, but also wanted Li Qiang to die to his daughter.

Li Qiang smiled and raised his hand to make a move.

"Huh? This chess ......"

At first, Lin Guodong didn't care about it, but after a closer look, he was a little stunned, it was actually a way he didn't expect. He didn't want an accident, so he couldn't help but start thinking seriously, "Could it be that this kid has other killings?" ”

At this time, Lin Xinyue walked out of the kitchen and leaned on Li Qiang to watch them play chess. Looking at the chessboard in front of her, Lin Xinyue couldn't help but start pointing out the country, "Li Qiang, it seems that you are going to lose...... Daddy, you can let me go. She didn't know the meaning of the game, so she was naturally stressed.

Lin Guodong has always felt that he has a great advantage in his heart, and when he heard his daughter say the same, he suspected that he was thinking too much, so he took a step according to the must-win move that he had just thought of.

At this time, Li Qiang immediately followed after Lin Guodong finished getting down.

After the first three moves were played, Lin Guodong was still full of contempt for Li Qiang, only to feel that Li Qiang was really stubborn and stubborn.

When it came to the fourth hand, Lin Guodong's face suddenly became solemn, and he thought for a long time, but he didn't even respond to Lin Xinyue's teasing.

"Dad, why are you walking so slowly, do you still need to think about it?"

Li Qiang was smiling and calm from beginning to end.

Finally, Lin Guodong made the fourth hand, and then Li Qiang followed the fifth hand.

"Hey, why has the situation changed?"

At this time, even Lin Xinyue saw that the situation had begun to change, let alone Lin Guodong.

When it came to the seventh move, Lin Guodong's rook was eaten by the double eating horse, and the only remaining horse on the ninth move was also eaten.

In this way, on the chessboard, Lin Guodong is only left with a double-phase shot, and the general trend has gone.

Li Qiang only took nine steps to turn the tide and the situation reversed.

Lin Guodong's face changed and changed, his face was full of disbelief, it was obviously a fatal situation, but Li Qiang actually came up with another solution.

Lin Xinyue's face was full of excitement, happy for Li Qiang, "You are amazing!" This can turn the tables. ”

Lin Guodong stubbornly supported his son and surrendered, and finally became a loner, and was finally blocked by Li Qiang with a pawn.

Li Qiang's face was calm, sitting on the chair, Lin Guodong's face turned pale, his mouth was pursed, and he didn't say a word. This situation made Lin Xinyue, who was watching the play on the sidelines, find that something was wrong, and hurriedly pulled Li Qiang up and said to Zhao Li in the kitchen, "Mom, we're going back." He said a word to Lin Guodong again and hurriedly left.

Li Qiang was dragged out of the door by Lin Xinyue after saying goodbye and hurriedly went downstairs.

Zhao Li walked out of the kitchen wiping her hands, with a puzzled expression, "Why did this girl walk so fast?" He glanced at Lin Guodong, who was sitting there calmly, turned around and prepared to go back to the kitchen to continue his work.

"This kid is amazing, he has a very wild temperament, it seems that he has eaten our daughter."

Lin Guodong's sudden words made Zhao Li a little confused, she turned around and said, "That's not good?" I think this Xiao Li is very good, he is very down-to-earth, he will hurt people, and his daughter can't be wrong to marry him. You bad old man just don't want to marry his daughter, are you stunned? With that, he went into the kitchen.

Lin Guodong looked at the pawn who forced the old handsome to death in front of him, and muttered to himself, "The pawn eats the old handsome, and the pawn eats the old handsome, is this providence or human will?" But in the end, his face sank, and he gritted his teeth and said to himself, "Even if it is providence, it is impossible for me to marry my daughter to you as a courier!" Wait, I'm going to let you leave my daughter obediently! ”
