Chapter 187: Climb the stairs to view the view
"How is it possible, this shop is originally the property of the Qi family, and I don't dare to lend me two more guts." The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face - the money is inexhaustible, and no matter how big the loss is if you do less business, you will offend the Qi family, so how can you mix it up in the future.
"It's good to know. What does that mean by pulling me over? Qi Fu asked.
"Hehe, I just want to ask, what happened to Sun Dong and them visiting Second Master Qi? Why did Second Master Qi look up to them so much, and actually invited them to live in the mansion? The shopkeeper asked with a smile on his face - he would not have slept well tonight if his curiosity was not satisfied.
"I don't know the specific situation, but I just listened to Lilac that the second master had a very bad attitude towards those people, but after playing a game of chess with one of them, the second master's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and he was immediately a guest." Qi Fu replied.
"What? Changed your attitude after playing a game of chess? Did the second master lose or win? The shopkeeper was so shocked that his jaw didn't drop, and he stammered.
"You don't know the second master's temperament, if you win, can you do this?" Qi Fu replied, with a little resentment in his tone, probably because he was also dissatisfied with the master's inexplicable loss to an inexplicable person.
"Uh, is it the younger one or the drunken one?" The shopkeeper hurriedly asked.
"I don't know about this, but listening to Lilac, the person who played chess with the second master looked quite down, but his tone was very big." Qi Fu replied after thinking about it.
"You look down, but your tone is very big? So it's really that drunkard? Oh my God, is there any reason for this? "The shopkeeper is completely petrified, this is really a long life, all kinds of strange things can happen, he never imagined that the drunkard who looked at how he was a strange person was still a master of Yilin. Even Second Master Qi won.
"Who said it wasn't, okay, don't say it, what I said just now was a joke, Second Master Qi won't take advantage of your little advantage, settle the accounts clearly, and I'll come to you tomorrow to settle the bill." While he was talking, Lao Wei packed his luggage and came out, Qi Fu said hello to the shopkeeper, and left the inn with a few people.
In Reading Heart Zhai, Qi An had already sent the wine. It is worthy of being a fine wine with a bottle of incense, the wine jar is brought into the house, the mud seal at the mouth of the altar is still finally opened, and the refreshing aroma of wine has been diffused in the house.
"Good wine!" As soon as the wine jar was brought to the door, the drunkard's eyes were already lit up, and before the jar could be put down, he couldn't wait to come over, twitching his nose and sniffing greedily.
"Hehe, mad brother is really a good drinker. Interested in trying it? Seeing this scene, Second Master Qi smiled dumbly, and also came to the wine altar and asked with a smile.
"Of course." In order to taste the wine, he didn't drink the wine from the Qi family's old store when he ate. At this moment, the peerless wine is in front of him, how can he let it go.
"Hehe, Yuexinzhai is a place to play chess, and I want to taste good wine. Please also ask the mad brother to move, Qi An, and take the wine to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. Second Master Qi instructed with a smile - if you want to drink, you always need drinking utensils. Isn't it possible to open the jar and lie down at the mouth of the altar to learn how to drink from the cow? That would be too unsightly.
"Yes." Qi An replied.
So, under the gaze of the drunkard, the jar of permeable incense was moved out again.
"Hehe, good wine needs good dishes, and it's a pity to have wine and no food. Crazy brother, Brother Sun, and every day, please. Second Master Qi smiled and made a hand gesture to a few people.
"Huh? Am I going too? Can't you go without going? Tan Xiaotian asked in surprise - it doesn't matter to him when adults drink, what is he doing with him? He and Tian Qingyou hadn't tasted the wine secretly, it was spicy and choking, and he really couldn't understand why those adults were so happy.
"Oh? Hehe, little guy, when you get to Jiuxian Pavilion, you can't only drink, there are a lot of delicious foods there. The maid Lilac saw that the child was cute and explained with a smile.
"But I'm not hungry right now." Tan Xiaotian tilted his head and thought about it, as if he was making a difficult choice, but in the end he resolutely shook his head and resisted the temptation of deliciousness.
"Not hungry?" This answer surprised everyone a little - they had just eaten before coming to visit Qi's house, but the time had passed for almost an hour, although they were not hungry, it was not a problem to eat anything, it was really strange that a child could resist the temptation of food.
"Hmm." Tan Xiaotian nodded, but out of the corner of his eye, he secretly glanced at the tall bookshelf erected by the wall.
"Oh, I see, you want to stay here and read?" Or Sun Dong has known Tan Xiaotian for a long time and knows a lot about it, looking at the child's appearance, he immediately guessed something, and asked with a smile.
"Well, is that okay?" Tan Xiaotian nodded and replied - Second Master Qi is a person in the chess world, not a whim of Old Lady Liu's Go enthusiast, although the number of chess books he collects is not as much as that of Old Lady Liu, but the quality of the content of the books is more than one level higher than that of Old Lady Liu, and what is even more rare is that the blank space of the footer of these chess books often has Qi Erye's thoughts and experiences when he was playing music and researching, which is a unique thing in the world, and money can't buy it.
"Of course, but kid, can you read these books?" Second Master Qi was surprised, he doesn't have that kind of children's books for popularization and enlightenment here, not to mention children, even adults with a certain foundation may not be able to read through, just now Sun Dong said that this child went to Yangzhou Chess Academy with him to learn chess, at such a young age, not to mention whether he can read his own chess books to that extent, and how many words he knows is a problem! Is it difficult to read these books that I have carefully collected as comic books?
"yes, I understand." Tan Xiaotian nodded again.
"Heh, really? Children, children can't talk big. Lilac smiled and quipped, obviously even she didn't think Tan Xiaotian had that extent.
"I'm not saying big things." Tan Xiaotian hurriedly defended - just now while the adults were chatting, he went to the bookshelf and quietly flipped through a few books to read, to say that he could understand it would be bragging, but children are so strong, how could he say it at this time.
Several adults all laughed, and the appearance of the children when they were serious was very cute.
"Well, since you don't want to eat, let's stay and read. Lilacs, take good care. Shaking his head, Second Master Qi commanded with a smile, and then walked out of Yuexinzhai with the drunkard and Sun Dong.
Leaving Yuexinzhai, several people chatted while walking, and the topic was naturally Tan Xiaotian's performance just now.
"Brother Sun, this kid is your relative? Why did I go to Yangzhou Chess Academy with you to learn chess? Second Master Qi asked.
"Heh, it's a long story, but in fact, it's not so much that he went to Yangzhou Chess Academy with me to learn chess, but that I touched his light." Sun Dong didn't hide it, and replied with a smile.
"Oh? How? Not only Second Master Qi, but also the drunkard who was in a hurry to go to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion to taste wine also slowed down and asked curiously.
"Oh, here's the thing", so Sun Dong told the cause and effect of the matter, although there were some deletions in the middle, but the general process was still understandable.
"Uh, that kid is really that smart?" After listening to the story told by Sun Dong, Second Master Qi asked in surprise, he asked himself that his talent in chess was not bad, but if what Sun Dong said was true, then compared to it, he would be a lump of elm.
"Heh, of course you won't believe me when you say that, and you'll know if I'm talking about it when you play a game of chess with him later." Sun Dong replied with a smile - hearing is false, seeing is believing, he would not expect Second Master Qi to believe himself unconditionally after listening to his own description.
"Well, that's going to try." Nodding, Second Master Qi said-The drunkard is already an unimaginable existence, how can there be a genius boy with such a high talent? The drunkard calls himself a chess maniac because he has enough chess power to qualify for a madness, so what about the nickname he gave Tan Xiaotian 'chess tyrant'? With the strength of children now, it is naturally a joke, but who dares to guarantee that after ten or twenty years, when the children grow up, will that title live up to their name and become the real hegemon in the chess world?
Speaking unconsciously, the road is short, unconsciously, there is a two-story small building in front of me, the building is three feet high, the eaves are painted and the columns are very exquisite, the lights and candles in the building have been lit, and the servants are nervous and busy running before and after, obviously they have just received instructions that the host is going to set up a banquet here, and is busy making preparations.
"Crazy brother, Brother Sun, please." When he came to the front of the building, Second Master Qi raised his hand and invited.
"Second Master Qi, please." The two of them were polite, and the three of them went upstairs together.
Upstairs, the banquet has not yet been set, but the upstairs space is very large, if it is an ordinary restaurant, such an area should be at least five or six tables, but here there is only one table, so while the people are still busy, the three of them went to the corridor outside the building to watch the scenery, the so-called 'want to be poor, Go to the next level', don't look at just one floor difference, the panorama of Qijia Town will be low, surrounded by green mountains, surrounded by green water, pastoral fields, towering trees, plus a light breeze, fresh air, it feels like being in a painting, no wonder Qi Er Ye will call this small building 'Drunken Immortal Pavilion', the wine is in the wind, watching the scenery and enjoying the wine, it is really a fairy to get the enjoyment.
"Hehe, madman, what do you think of tasting wine here?" Second Master Qi asked with a smile.
"Good, good scenery, beautiful scenery and fine wine, complement each other, and it is not in vain to walk for half a day." The drunkard praised - went up to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and looked into the distance, only then did he see the size of the Qi family's courtyard, if there was no Qi An in front of him just now, he and Sun Dong alone, I am afraid that they would not be able to find the north in this labyrinthine mansion for a long time.
