Chapter 16: Backgammon
Sure enough, walking around alone can figure out a lot of things, and Xia Shen's steps became lighter.
As she walked, the slightest drizzle fell, gently patting on her little face, which was cool and comfortable. Unlike the fierce rainstorms of summer, the spring rain is gentle, and the sound of the raindrops falling to all things reaches her ears, like a beautiful melody. One drop, two drops, three drops... Xia Shen looked at the raindrops on the ground, and muttered quietly:
"It is said that spring rain is as expensive as oil, so what about drenching it!"
Suddenly, the corner of her ink-colored clothes broke into her eyes, the coolness on her face was instantly covered, and the tip of her nose was filled with a familiar light fragrance, which made her feel at ease, and she fell asleep on horseback last time when she smelled this smell. Xia Shen raised his eyes and looked, his black and white eyes were extremely smart, "Uncle? ”
"You like the rain?" The corners of Su Dong's mouth were slightly hooked, and he was holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, but at this moment, most of the oil-paper umbrella was covered by Xia Shen.
"It's just that I didn't bring an umbrella when I came out, what can I do with this drizzle!" Xia Shen said hardly.
"Then I'll have to put the umbrella away!" Su Dong looked at the little wild cat in front of him and began to his tail again, and he couldn't help but want to tease her.
"Don't, it's a fool not to fight if you have an umbrella, and you won't fight if you don't fight for nothing!"
"Why did you come out alone and be upset?" The misty people in the rain attracted Su Dong's attention.
Xia Shen saw that Su Dong easily guessed his inner thoughts, so he didn't hide it, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, but I just thought about it, and it was a lot more transparent!" ”
"You're right, the spring rain is as expensive as oil, don't waste this good time, I'll take you over there!"
The two figures walked in the light rain, playing an oil-paper umbrella together, shoulder to shoulder, and the atmosphere became subtle.
Xia Shen looked at Su Dong's side face, and couldn't help blushing, she went wherever he took her, as long as she was with him, she could put away her sharp claws with peace of mind.
The two came to a small river, at this time only three or three boats docked on the shore, Su Dong stepped forward to exchange a few words with the boatman, took out the silver taels from his arms and gave them to the boatman, and beckoned to Xia Shen.
Xia Shen staggered onto the boat with the help of Su Dong, and the boatman was at the helm in the back, "Son, Miss, sit tight!" ”
The boat sails slowly on the water, reflecting the flowers and ancient houses on the shore, and the raindrops ripple layer by layer. The turquoise water, the cloudy sky, sitting in the cabin and enjoying such a view, is a special taste.
There is a game of Go on the table, and it seems that there are many literati and scholars enjoying the game in this water, "Do you know how to play chess?" Su Dongdao.
Xia Shen looked at the black and white chess pieces in front of him, pretending to be mysterious: "Of course it will, but it's different from what you play!" ”
"Tell me about it!"
"I play backgammon, one side holds black chess, one side plays white chess, black chess first, the first to connect their chess pieces into a five-point line wins, how about it, play or not?"
"Sounds fresh, let's have a game!" Su Dong was instantly interested, and it seems that life is not so boring.
"Good!"
Su Dong asked Xia Shen to hold black chess, but he was still a little unskilled, but Xia Shen quickly became a five-son without much effort, and raised his eyebrows proudly.
Su Dong was very unconvinced, "Come again!" ”
With the first game of testing the waters, Su Dong quickly understood the routine of this five-in-a-row chess.
At the beginning of the second game, Xia Shen underestimated Su Dong, and only cared about her own chess pieces, just when she became four sons in a row, she was proud, and was ready to wait for Su Dong to finish the next step to connect her fifth son, but she was dumbfounded.
"Come again!" This time, Xia Shen was not convinced.
In the later chess games, Su Dong lost all to Xia Shen.
"It's boring, it's boring, it's not playing!" Xia Shen threw down a black chess piece in his hand and said, "Why do you always deliberately lose to me!" ”
"Miss Lin, where did I deliberately lose to you, it's obvious that I am not good at chess." Su Dong deliberately made a helpless expression.
"Obviously, I easily won the second game, no matter how good my chess skills are, I won't be able to win every game in the future!"
"It seems that I can't hide anything from you, a monkey girl!" Su Dong couldn't help but rub Xia Shen's bun.
