"After listening to this story, don't you think there is nothing strange about stone chess?"

Several people nodded their heads.

Meizi smiled.

"Okay, now if you have any questions, just ask! If it's okay, we'll have to go back, lest we're going back late and the family will be worried. ”

"Meizi, the story you said is stone chess, why is it called backgammon now."

Meizi groaned for a moment.

"Hmm... This one! Because later this stone chess, many people will know, and most of the people who play this kind of chess are vassal and elegant scholars, everyone thinks that the name of this stone chess is too ordinary, and then a total, this is the five sons connected into a line to win, so it is called so. ”

Lin Zheng let out an obvious "oh" with a clear face.

Heping looked at Meizi's long, narrow and deep eyes, and a faint light flashed, and soon returned to calm.

Meizi looked at Heping and looked into her eyes, her eyes dodging, for fear that this man would see something.

"Anything else to ask? Without me, I would have gone back. ”

Meizi repeated what she had just said again.

When Lin Zheng heard Meizi say this, it was indeed not too early to look up at the sky.

Lin Zhenghe and peace were not retained. After all, Meizi is a girl, and she went out too late to be seen by people who don't know the situation, and she has to provoke some gossip.

"Do you want me to send you off?"

Peace said as he looked at the back of Meizi who was about to turn around.

Meizi paused, and turned to look at the peace with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, big brother, no need for it now that it's still dawn, and it's not far away, and it won't take a quarter of an hour to arrive."

Heping heard Meizi's words, and a trace of loss flashed in his dark eyes.

"Oh well! You brothers and sisters be careful. ”

Meizi led Zhou Zhu out of the gate of their small courtyard. He walked away without looking back.

"Big brother, I've returned to my soul, everyone is gone, what else are you looking at?"

Lin Zheng slapped Peace on the shoulder.

The man who was deep in thought was startled, and his face became a little ugly when his thoughts were disturbed.

Lin Zheng looked at He's flat face, looking at his own appearance, feeling a little cautiously panicked, and hurriedly currying favor with a smile on his face.

"Brother, I was wrong, can I make you what you want to eat tonight? Brother, you are my own brother! ”

When Heping heard Lin Zheng's words, he didn't say good or bad, and stared at Lin Zheng with a pair of slightly sharp eyes for a moment.

Lin Zheng felt that his heart was beating faster to death in such a peaceful view.

"Okay!"

Lin Zheng felt that this sound "Okay! "It came so suddenly and so lightly, and it was not at all right with the tense and oppressive atmosphere just now, I thought I had heard it wrong.

"Brother, what did you just say?"

Heping glanced at Lin Zheng beside him. There was a small smile in his eyes.

"If you don't hear it, forget it."

Lin Zheng didn't dare to talk nonsense now, and walked quickly in the direction of the stove room with a strong shout.

"Brother, I heard, I heard. I'm going to make you dinner and cook you what you like. ”

Heping looked at Lin Zheng's furious appearance, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

Then he fell into his own contemplation.

Heping looked at the performance of the little girl today, and then thought of the scene in the cave during the rainstorm, and suddenly felt that this girl did not look like she grew up in the countryside at all.

But if this girl didn't grow up in the country, then how could she know this, was it really because of the books her grandfather left her?

The Peace Station fell into deep thought.

In the end, I couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, so I had to give up.

When Meizi returned to the shop with Zhou Zhu, Zhou Sun's family had already begun to clean the shop.

"Mother! We're back, are they all sold out? ”

Meizi pulled Zhou Zhu into the shop. Then he raised his hand and scooped up the sleeves of his clothes and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.

"Well, it's sold out, and it's still a little less done today, and a few people just came to ask if there is any food!"

Zhou Sun replied to Meizi with a smile on his face.

At this time, there was a sudden lightning and thunder outside. The sky, which was only a few dark clouds just now, was now covered by a large number of dark clouds, and it felt like the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.

Zhou Sun and Mei Zi took advantage of the fact that the heavy rain had not yet come and accelerated the speed in their hands.

Wait for Meizi and Zhou to wash the dishes and chopsticks. When I was ready to make dinner, the rain of beans was dripping from the dark sky, at first just a drop, and then faster and faster, more and more. From time to time, there is also a wind blowing from nowhere.

Zhou Sun hurriedly went to close the door of the shop, and when he came back, he walked under the eaves, and the skirt was wet by the rain blowing in the wind.

The two didn't dare to go back to change their clothes, so they had to go into the stove room. I thought I'd bake it while cooking, and it would be dry.

"Mother, eldest sister. Is it raining heavily outside? ”

Zhou Zhu sat on a small stool by the stove and saw Zhou Sun and the two of them coming in, and he was busy smelling it.

Meizi walked up to the little one, stretched out her hand and rubbed the little one's short hair, which had not yet grown up.

"Well, it's very big, you can see that my mother's skirts and I are wet."

Zhou Zhu glanced at his eldest sister and mother, and hurriedly stood up.

"Mother, eldest sister, come and sit here, and bake it later to dry so as not to get sick."

When Zhou Sun heard Zhou Zhu's words, the smile on his face deepened a little.

"Well, our little bamboo still knows how to care about people, has he grown up and is a little man!"

After saying that, he pulled over the stool and made it to the edge of the stove.

Zhou Zhu was a little embarrassed by his mother's praise, and two blushes rose on his chubby little face.

"Yo. Mother, you see my brother's face blushing from the quilt! ”

The little guy heard Meizi's teasing words. Annoyed and glared at Meizi. Turning around, Zhou Sun sat down.

"Mother, you see that the eldest sister is very bad and knows how to bully me."

After Zhou Zhu said this, he didn't expect that Zhou not only didn't judge himself, but also laughed out loud.

Zhou Sun's laugh, and Meizi also laughed.

The three of them looked so unhappy.

Zhou Sun smiled and stopped. He sighed at the storm outside the window.

"Mother, what's wrong with you, are you worried that your father and second girl haven't arrived home yet!"

Zhou Sun withdrew his gaze from the window.

replied to Meizi with a "hmm".

"Mother, I think my father and the second girl must have arrived early."

Zhou Sun stuffed a piece of firewood into the stove hall and said casually.

"Well, I hope so. Let's do it! ”

That being said, there was still a little worry in his eyes.

Meizi knew that it was useless to worry now, so she could only pray in her heart that the two of them would not be drenched in heavy rain on Tuesday.

Then I touched the hem of my skirt and felt that it was almost dry, so I didn't think about it so much, and hurriedly stood up.

I went to the desk to prepare dinner, and I thought that when it got dark, it would be more difficult to cook, and I couldn't see the vegetables. If you're not careful, you'll have less meat on your hands.

Tuesday He and Erniu had indeed just stepped into the house not long after the heavy rain came.

The two of them were also glad that they had just met the ox cart in the village when they came out today, otherwise they would have been drenched in the rain now.
