In order to return to the door of Dongyi, the door of Xuefu was hung with red colored silk, and the door with a gilded knocker was pasted with a big happy word.

Everywhere is draped in red and hung with colors, or pasted with the word of happiness, or pasted with the auspicious paper-cut of the magpie climbing the branch.

Entering the gate of Xue's mansion, bypassing the triple instrument gate, and walking to the door of the hanging flower, Dongyu's sister-in-law accompanied Mrs. Shizi, the second lady, the third lady, the fourth lady and the fifth lady, and the girls, maids, and mothers-in-law were surrounded by girls, maids, and mothers-in-law.

"Aunt Nine, Aunt Nine Grandma are back to the door!" Mother Rong, who was beside Mrs. Rong, shouted loudly.

The little guy who had been guarding not far away for a long time hurriedly lit the firecrackers, and in the crackling, Mrs. Shizi took a few steps forward and grabbed Dongyu's arm.

The group hugged their husband and wife back and forth and went to the old lady's Rongde Pavilion.

When she walked to the path at the door, Zhan's mother, who was looking at the door, was busy and happy, and also called Aunt Jiu and Grandma Jiu to return to the door, and there was a burst of firecrackers to welcome her.

Stepping into the familiar threshold, Dongyu's eyes suddenly moistened. It's only been three days, how do you feel like you haven't come back for a long time?

Tables and chairs were set up in the hall of Rongde Pavilion, the old lady and the old marquis sat in the chief, and the lady of the prince, the fourth master, and the fifth master sat on either side.

Seeing Dongyu and his wife enter the door, Mrs. Shizi and Mrs. Fifth also hurriedly sat back beside their husbands.

The old lady looked at the bright and moving Dongyu, bowed her head slightly, and couldn't help but have a water light in her eyes.

Dong Ying and Sheng Xiuyi first kowtowed to the old marquis and the old lady, then kowtowed to the prince and the prince's wife, then kowtowed to the fifth master and the fifth lady, and then the second lady, the third lady, the fourth master and the fourth lady, and gave gifts to the brothers and sisters in the family.

After a set of etiquette, Sheng Xiuyi had already kept the appearance and identity of each member of the Xue family in mind, and also lamented the large population of the Xue family.

Just giving birth to the five rooms of Dongyu is about to catch up with the number of Shengchanghou's branch. What's more, Marquis Zhen Xian has four other sons, and many daughters have been married.

Today is the door of the East Ring. Xue Dongyu, the second miss of the big room, Xue Dongying, the third lady, Xue Dongting, the fourth miss of the second room, Xue Dongyue, the seventh miss of the fourth room, and Xue Dongxin, the eighth lady, except for the sixth girl Xue Dongyao who was about to give birth who was married in the third room, did not come. The rest brought their husbands and children to congratulate them.

Sheng Xiuyi has to remember so many people who meet for the first time. His energy needs to be highly concentrated, for fear of making a mistake and making a fool of himself later.

And the second, third, and fourth sisters who married out in the early years, Dongying herself is not very familiar. As for their husbands and children, she was even more confused.

Saluted. They sat down.

The old marquis saw that Sheng Xiuyi was a talented person and tall. Handsome, without the slightest decay and twilight. Looking at his bright and deep eyes, he doesn't look like a stupid and mediocre person. The old marquis is well-informed. The eyes are sharp. As soon as I looked at Sheng Xiuyi, I knew that he had a good cultivation and practiced martial arts all year round.

Such a person has been buried for more than ten years, and he is still unknown at the age of thirty.

"Grandfather, grandson-in-law." Sheng Xiuyi introduced himself to the old marquis.

The Marquis of Zhenxian smiled and called him Tianhe. Suddenly asked him, "Do you know how to play Go?" ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, this question was so abrupt.

But no one dared to question anything.

Sheng Xiuyi was busy and said: "Everyone in Kyoto knows that the Marquis of Zhenxian is a national player of Go. The grandson-in-law didn't dare to speak, and he knew a little about the fur. ”

Although he is very modest, his tone is very confident, which makes the old marquis want to try him more and more.

He actually wanted to see if Sheng Xiuyi knew how to use soldiers.

Although the chess path is small, it is really a combination of soldiers. Masters are fighting against each other, and there are thirty-six conspiracies and calculations. A Go master must be familiar with military books.

It was not good for Marquis Zhen Xian to ask people how to use soldiers when his grandson-in-law returned to the door.

The soldiers are dangerous, and it is unlucky to talk about military affairs on a happy day.

But the old marquis could see that Sheng Xiuyi was practicing martial arts.

is not a martial artist, but not a person who walks the rivers and lakes, so he naturally knows some military ways. The old marquis led soldiers when he was young, and he can see a person's understanding of the way of soldiers from the words and words of others. And he is proficient in Go, and he knows that chess is the way of soldiers.

He had the heart to take the test for Sheng Xiuyi, and wanted to see if he was just talking on paper or if he was confident.

"I can't afford to be a national player, I just like it on weekdays. Tianhe, forget it today, we will learn from our ancestors and grandchildren tomorrow. Since you know some skin, let me ask you, how do you win in chess? The Marquis of Zhenxian held it indifferently and looked at Sheng Xiuyi.

Everyone could see that the old marquis was going to take the Sheng Xiuyi exam.

It's just that using Go as an exam question is really tricky.

Go is complex and treacherous, and Sheng Xiuyi is mediocre, which is really deliberately difficult.

Xue Ziyun, the prince of the Xue family, was very afraid that Sheng Xiuyi would be asked by the old marquis in front of everyone in the Xue family. It just so happened that the prince also knew some chess, so he was secretly vigilant, helped Sheng Xiuyi think of the answer, and mentioned a few words from time to time.

The old lady is the one who loves the ninth girl Dongyu the most.

If her husband had fallen ill when he returned home, the old lady would have been displeased.

On a happy day, why should the old man be displeased?

As soon as the topic of the old marquis came out, Xue Ziyun, the prince of the Xue Mansion, was slightly shocked in his heart: The old marquis is too ruthless, and his shot is a ruthless move. This kind of problem is the most difficult to solve.

How to win?

This topic is broad and general, and I am afraid that I will not be able to explain it clearly for a long time. Xue Ziyu, the prince of the world, was also very helpless.

He couldn't solve the problem.

The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. Those who knew how to play chess were all surprised for a moment, and turned their eyes to Old Marquis Xue, thinking that they would embarrass the new uncle how to speak; Those who didn't know how to play chess turned their eyes to Sheng Xiuyi to see how he would answer.

Dong Yu glanced at the old marquis, and then at Sheng Xiuyi.

I saw him muttering for a moment, then he raised his eyes, his voice was resolute and loud, and said: "Grandfather, grandson-in-law think that the way of chess is not to win, but to be flexible. Those who are impatient and seek to win are more defeated, and those who are honest and hold on to more wins. Change is the way, the general is long, the way is always the way to win. This grandson-in-law has a humble opinion. ”

Dong Yu is the same as people who don't know chess, and when Sheng Xiuyi finished answering, he immediately turned his eyes to see the old marquis's reaction.

I saw that Old Marquis Xue's light suddenly brightened, and there was a smile on his face, and only those who didn't know how to play chess understood that Sheng Xiuyi's answer was good, and they were all impressed by him.

And those who know how to play chess only feel a shock to their hearts. If you are so concise, you can summarize Dacheng and encompass the essence of chess, which is not simple. His cultivation of Go can't be called a national player, at least he can be called a master, right?

Old Marquis Xue was even more happy. Sheng Xiuyi did not disappoint him.

He asked, "You're right." The ancients said that Go is like a soldier. Man will conquer the heavens. If the strategy is deep, you will win, and if the calculation is shallow, you will lose. What does Tianhe think about this? ”

Sheng Xiuyi just groaned slightly this time, and replied respectfully: "This is a good statement, but it is not clever. ”

Hear him say that. Xue Ziyu, the prince of Xue Mansion, took a breath: The shaft is so big! See how he picks up.

I heard Sheng Xiuyi talking eloquently: "The way of chess is also the way of heaven." Three hundred and sixty chess pieces are the number of Zhou Tian. One black and one white, like the polarization of yin and yang; The chessboard is like the ground, square and quiet. Absolutely still; The chess pieces are like the sky. Round and rolling, ever-changing. Man will conquer the heavens, but it is the result of small potentials; Adapting to the situation of the sky is the trend of the times. ”

"Good!" Xue Ziyun, the prince of the world, didn't wait for the old marquis to react, and couldn't help laughing, "Good answer." What the virtuous son-in-law said. The words are deafening. We are small insights. A virtuous son-in-law is a great ambition! ”

Dongyu looked at the old marquis.

The old marquis couldn't help but smile at the corners of his eyes. He got up slowly, called the butler and asked, "Is the banquet in front of you ready?" ”

The butler was ready to wait.

The old marquis said loudly: "Go, move out the two jars of pear blossoms buried in the backyard." Today is the return of the ninth aunt, which is the first happy event, and he wants to treat his son-in-law with good wine. ”

The housekeeper and those in the know were slightly stunned.

The two jars of pear blossom incense were given to the old marquis by the emperor and buried in the backyard for more than 30 years. Even if Xue Ziming won the champion, the old marquis never mentioned this wine.

Today, I want to open to entertain Sheng Xiuyi.

The old lady couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

Not to mention how this person treats Sister Yu'er, at least he is not a mediocre talent in the outside world. The old lady also understands what he said, his words are concise, and every sentence is golden and jade. And he has a big plan, a heart for the common people, and does not seek victory for personal gain.

That's why the old marquis is so happy.

Sheng Xiuyi does not have the arrogance and desire of young people. He is calm and self-controlled, steady and introverted, but he is full of talent.

It's amazing enough to be so talented at a young age; But with such a heart and insight, it is admirable.

Sheng Wenhui, Marquis of Shengchang, blocked Sheng Xiuyi's way, this is the conclusion that the old lady came to at this moment.

When he came back to his senses, the housekeeper hurriedly said yes and went to the backyard to get wine.

The old marquis got up and asked Sheng Xiuyi to follow him, accompanied by Xue Ziyun, the prince of the world, and went to the front hall to sit down; Dong Ying was surrounded by the Xue family's daughters beside the old lady, and also went to the front seat.

Through the screen, you can also hear the laughter of the old marquis on the man's table from time to time.

Mrs. Shizi deliberately said loudly: "Our ninth aunt and grandmother have married a good son-in-law, and the Hou Ye is happy." Today, my aunt and grandmother will also eat a few more cups. ”

Everyone took turns to toast Dongyu.

It's just that Xue Dongrong, the fifth girl sitting next to the second lady, turned slightly pale. She seemed to be greatly stimulated and stared blankly at Dongyu. Dong Ying also noticed her abnormality, and when she looked back, the two looked at each other.

Xue Dongrong's face turned even paler. She smiled, her smile strange and desperate, which shocked Dongyu's heart.

The fourth sister, Xue Dongting, also noticed that her sister was abnormal, so she got up with a smile and whispered something, and pulled Xue Dongrong out of the table.

Xue Dongrong walked to the door and looked back at Dongyi.

When she turned her head away again, Dong Ying clearly saw her two lines of tears sliding down.

Dong Ying was foggy (the fastest update in the book house), and went back to the door by herself, but she didn't say anything to the fifth sister, and her expression and reaction made Dong Ying very puzzled.

Before he came back to his senses, he heard the laughter of the second sister Xue Dongyu at the nearby table: "The ninth brother-in-law is really handsome, standing with the ninth sister, it is like a match made in heaven, and he is really envious of others." ”

Everyone laughed and said that Aunt Jiu was so blessed.

The screen seemed to hear the boasting here, and I don't know if it was my cousin who echoed loudly: "The beauty of our ninth sister's beauty and national beauty, only the ninth brother-in-law can match it." ”
