The sunset in the evening is like a flowing salted duck yolk egg, and the orange is red.

"Hey, I'll give you one last minute." Xu Zhouzhou said vaguely with a dog's tail in his mouth.

The girl's arrogant tone was a little scattered, and she looked very lazy.

The evening sun was just beautiful, and the quicksand-like gold shone through the layers of green leaves on the little girl who sat on the branch with her back against the trunk, softening the shadow.

"Hmph, what's the big deal, you know that the master goes to heaven and earth, and can do anything." Shen Zhi adhered to the principle that he couldn't lose his momentum if he lost, and shouted disdainfully at the little girl who was lazily leaning on the trunk of the tree under the tree.

Ah, that's a real unpleasant statement!

Xu Zhouzhou said that he had been provoked.

"Oh? Is it? It turns out that my little brother is so capable~" Xu Zhouzhou lowered his eyelids, looked at his watch, and said with a long tail note.

"Who is your little brother, you don't have a relationship with me, we don't know each other!"

Shen Zhi's arm holding the big tree suddenly let go and jumped down from the tree.

"Oh, then, may I ask if the omnipotent Zhiye can't afford to play?" Xu Zhouzhou stared at Shen Zhi with a pair of big watery eyes, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Huh? Jokes, you know what you say! ”

The little boy swore that he didn't realize that he was trapped in Xu Zhouzhou's trap.

"Well, 'Zhiye' let's go, big brother will take you home for dinner." Xu Zhouzhou deliberately clenched the word 'big brother', as if reminding Shen Zhi of something.

Xu Zhouzhou jumped down from the tree briskly, forcibly hooked Shen Zhi's shoulder, turned his back to the sunset, and walked in the direction of the compound.

In the evening, the sunset on the horizon flows slowly, with different shades of color, revealing a faint ambiguity, gentle and delicate.

"Grandma, what's going on tonight?"

I really heard his voice before I saw it, and Grandma Xu, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, heard Xu Zhouzhou's voice coming from afar.

Xu Zhouzhou and Shen Zhiyi stepped on the threshold of the compound.

Grandpa Shen, who was in a group of old men, happily beckoned to Xu Zhouzhou and said, "Zhouzhou, come and play chess with Grandpa Shen first?" ”

"Okay, but grandpa has to let me order it." Xu Zhouzhou walked over obediently.

Compared with the face on the tree that forced Shen Zhi to call his eldest brother, it was like two people

I'm afraid this thing will have a dual personality, right?!

Shen Zhi beside Xu Zhouzhou secretly figured it out.

Although Xu Zhouzhou is still young, she has been with chess since she was a child, and she has been exposed to it for many years.

Old Man Shen also heard about this, so he intended to ask Xu Zhouzhou to accompany him in the next game.

The grandfather and grandson sat on a small stone pier and played against each other.

After a long time, it looks like it is about to reach an impasse.

The old men could only say: an unexpected accident.

At this moment, the chess skills of the grandfather and grandson seem to be evenly matched, but in fact, Xu Zhouzhou occupies the dominant position.

In other words, Xu Zhouzhou's next move determines the direction of the chess game.

A group of old people on the lookers all sighed secretly, and they all sweated for the old chief in their hearts.

Old Man Shen seems to have been born with no chance to play chess, he never won against Xu Guo when he was in the army before, but he has an almost obsessive paranoia about playing chess, which naturally created their deep friendship.

But now it looks like it's about to fall on Xu Guo's ten-year-old granddaughter.

I'm afraid no one will believe it, but it can't be helped, there are some things, it just has to rely on some talent.

"Hey, you go here." Shen Zhifu whispered in Xu Zhouzhou's ear, and his little hand was still secretly pointing to a place.

"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, if you don't want to see it, go to the house to play with your brother Xu Qin." Grandpa Shen took Shen Zhi's small movements in his eyes and issued a stern warning.

Although Mr. Shen said that his chess skills were average, he was also a very principled chess player.

Jokes, think of him as an old chief with great military achievements and high prestige, just play chess but a little girl, and his grandson still helps him cheat, and he can't make people laugh when he spreads it?

Don't he want face?

Xu Zhouzhou also turned his head and lifted his eyelids to look at Shen Zhi.

I saw that the young man was standing beside him with a smile on his bare eyebrows, like a god.

With just one glance, Xu Zhouzhou only had left in his mind: when this is stunning, it is rare in the world.

For a while, he looked at Shen Zhi and became unconscious.

Today's Xu Zhouzhou was lazy and had no intention of going out, but grandpa instructed her to take the newcomer Shen Zhi to play, which was originally the responsibility of her unlucky brother, but her brother was good, and he was stunned by the flagpole of learning, Xu Zhouzhou expressed extreme disdain later, and the dog didn't necessarily have to do anything in the house.

"What? Impressed by the charm of the master? ”

Xu Zhouzhou hurriedly retracted his gaze, pinched the chess pieces and swirled back and forth in his hands, thinking seriously with a decent appearance.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on this little girl's hand, and I don't know how she will make this move.

After a while, the little girl stopped what she was doing, and put the chess on it with a serious face, looking extremely solemn, as if she had made a big decision.

But this move was not placed in the place that Shen Zhi pointed to, nor was it placed in the move that could be won with one move, but in an inconspicuous place, but it would not show that it could be compromised.

Xu Zhouzhou single-handedly made this game of chess go back and forth for a few more rounds.

In the end, it ended with Old Man Shen winning.

"You old man, what a blessing!" Grandpa Shen smiled heartily, but what he said was implicit.

"Hahaha, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren."

After Old Man Xu finished speaking, he paused.

"Yo, you see, it's getting dark, and we have to stay for dinner tonight." Grandpa Xu patted Grandpa Shen's shoulder and said with a full face.

"Haha, I didn't plan to leave." Grandpa Shen smiled.

"Zhouzhou, go see if your grandma is cooking."

Grandpa Xu instructed Xu Zhouzhou, who was standing next to him, and then entered the inner room with Grandpa Shen and his brothers.

"Grandma, I'm so hungry, how long will I have to wait?" Xu Zhouzhou shouted as he walked towards the kitchen.

The old-fashioned windows were open, and the smell of food and the ethereal mist wafted from them.

"Okay, okay, you go with your brother and bring the dishes and chopsticks into the house."

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw the busy figure of my grandmother, and the small light bulb that had been hanging on the ceiling for an unknown number of years emitted a yellowish light, shining on the bodies of the three grandparents, casting a warm shadow.

"No, it's good."

Xu Qin took out a stack of porcelain bowls from the wooden cabinet with a sense of age behind him and handed it to Xu Zhouzhou.

Then, when he turned around, he only took a few pairs of chopsticks.

"Brother, won't your conscience hurt?"

Xu Zhouzhou stared at Xu Qin's empty left hand and said faintly.

"Not really."

Xu Qin's smile was like a spring breeze, which made people look very unhappy.

"I'm cultivating your sense of independence, otherwise it will be difficult to get your in-laws in the future with you like this."

Xu Qin walked to the stove where his grandmother was cooking, picked up a stack of vegetables, and walked out of the kitchen.

Xu Zhouzhou held the bowl in both hands and followed closely behind Xu Qin.

"You look very bad, from your attitude towards your sister, you can infer your attitude towards your wife in the future, who dares to marry your daughter to you in the future, you will be alone and single, and finally rely on me" Xu Zhouzhou patted his chest: "My sister, who has grown tenaciously under your suppression since childhood, will give you a pension." ”

After speaking, he also pretended to suck his nose twice, looking like he was about to cry, looking quite weak, pitiful and helpless.

Heh~ Give me back the pension, it's good not to me off now, Xu Qin sneered.

"You don't have to worry about it, just brother's temperament, even the deduction of the nose has its own protagonist aura, you little dwarf can't learn it."

"Who's going to learn from you? We serious people won't buckle their noses in public, hey~ Don't say you know me when you go out, it's a shame to have a brother like you."

Xu Zhouzhou wrinkled his nose and looked disgusted.

“......”

After entering the house.

"Daqin, you go to the cellar and bring the bottle of wine that you and your Grandpa Shen usually drink."

"Oh, let's go for the little ones."

Xu Qin clasped his hands into fists, bowed down, made a gesture of receiving orders at Grandpa Xu, and then handed the chopsticks in his hand to Xu Zhouzhou, who had just placed the bowl.

"Zhouzhou, you quickly set up the dishes and chopsticks, and then take your brother Shen Zhi to the nearby supermarket to buy some of your favorite drinks."

"Okay." Xu Zhouzhou responded.

The sun has completely set, the sunset has smeared the entire sky, and the temperature is a little cooler.

Xu Zhouzhou glanced at Shen Zhi, who was walking a little ahead on the right.

Ahem, the atmosphere is really delicate.

I was happy when I climbed the tree in the afternoon, but now I suddenly fell silent, which is really embarrassing.

Xu Zhouzhou thought in his heart, wondering if he should say something, alleviate this embarrassing atmosphere, and show his friendship as a landlord by the way.

"Hey ......"

As soon as Xu Zhouzhou spoke, Shen Zhi suddenly turned his head back, so frightened that Xu Zhouzhou habitually shrank back.

"What are you doing?!"

"Look ahead."

Xu Zhouzhou rushed to look at the alley pointed by Shen Zhi, and saw a black shadow jumping up and down, and some scolding voices could be faintly heard.

Xu Zhouzhou raised his eyebrows, and always felt that this black shadow seemed to have a little familiarity.

Just as Xu Zhouzhou was thinking about it, Shen Zhi had already rushed up.

Xu Zhouzhou hurriedly followed, if this kid was bullied in his own territory and spread the word, how faceless she would be as the boss.
