The chess game of the old nine gates
Wu Sanxing looked at the chess game in front of him, his upper body did not move at all, but his feet did not know how many times he had changed positions.
Wu Erbai looked at him from the other side, and when he saw him smiling calmly at himself, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
is so anxious in his heart, and he has to keep his upper body to his face still, there are no flaws, the third child's city government is indeed cultivating well. But this inner urgency, his character, can't be concealed no matter how much he can't hide it.
"Don't think about it, come on." Wu Erbai said to Wu Sanxing, "You will not be killed within seven steps, even if you win." ”
"Don't, it's not glorious to win like this, and I'm not someone who can't afford to lose. And I don't necessarily have to lose. Wu Sanxing said: "You haven't found out about the set set up by Lao Tzu?" ”
"How do you use two pawns and one to set up a set, your set is inevitably too big a hole." Wu Erbai looked at the dozen chess pieces he had eaten. This is Tian Huang's chess, which was given by Grandpa Jiu when his father was doing his birthday. It is said that it was carved by the master of Suzhou, and the words on it were also written by famous artists, which is quite precious. Now in less than three years, it has been ground to some pulp.
"If you lose, you can't smash the chessboard." He was a little nervous when he saw the pulp, if this thing was smashed by the third child, he would have to be unlucky, and Dad had to let the dog bite them.
Speaking of those dogs, it's true, in the hands of my father, all of them are treasures, but my own son doesn't pay attention to them, do you think that the three generations of us are below them?
It's not good, it's distracted.
Wu Erbai took a breath, and the third child was still sitting in front of him, looking at the chessboard without moving, his brows were almost knotted, and he didn't notice that he was wandering outside the world.
That's why he doesn't like to play chess with the third child. The third child is stubborn and stubborn, and when he sees that he is about to lose, he often thinks about ten minutes of one move, and he has to drag the chess game to the time of eating. Then he said: "Oh, I don't have time, this plan is to fight and fight, and I will come back again after eating and opening a new one." ”
But in this family, the one who can play a game of chess with himself is the third. Although the boss plays well, he likes to defend, and he will immediately admit defeat if he has the slightest advantage, so it is not fun to play.
"Or a draw?" Wu Erbai said. He couldn't afford to waste time, so he asked the boss to go to the store in the afternoon to stock the goods.
"No way!" Wu San said, "In this situation, if it is a draw, you still let me, I will still be a loser." ”
"Can you go a little faster, then?" Wu Erbai said, "The next move is to boil a pot of water." ”
Wu Sansheng glanced at Wu Erbai, "What's the hurry, Lao Tzu wants to set up a trap for you!" As he spoke, he raised his hand to push the chess, "This move must surprise you." ”
Wu Erbai looked at Wu Sanxing and was stunned. He already knew all the moves in this game of chess, and guessed that all the moves of Wu Sanxing would be checkmate by himself within seven moves. So his attention was not on the chessboard, just staring mechanically at his younger brother in front of him. At the moment when Wu Sanxing raised his hand, he saw Wu Sanxing's face, and vaguely revealed a trace of other expressions.
In that calmness, this expression is almost indistinguishable, proud? Nervous? Or frustration? It was impossible to tell, but this extremely slight change in expression still allowed Wu Erbai to capture it.
There was fraud, and he almost reflexively grabbed Wu Sanxing's hand that wanted to push the chess.
Wu Sanxing was frightened, "What are you doing?" ”
Wu Erbai looked down at the chessboard and slowly looked at all the chess pieces. Sure enough, he noticed that one of the chess pieces had been moved.
"I told you that you are not convinced, and if you win the cheating, do you think you can accept it?" Wu Erbai asked, "I really don't understand your logic." ”
"Cheating? I didn't cheat. Wu Sansheng pretended to be very innocent, "Who cheated, it's not easy for Lao Tzu to think of a clever trick, don't buckle my hat." ”
Wu Erbai put down his hand, moved his fingers to the chess piece, and slowly moved back to the position just now, "Third child, do you want me to push all the chess pieces back to take a look?" See how this chess piece can get to this position? ”
Wu Sanxing looked at Wu Erbai's eyes and scolded: "****, why is it so difficult to get you once?" No, no more, next time. As he spoke, he pushed the chess pieces and messed up all the chess pieces, "You clean up, I'll go to sleep and watch the chess game, I will definitely win you tomorrow." ”
"Don't, you made it clear to me, why am you not convinced if I let you, and you think it's okay to cheat yourself?" Wu Erbai looked at the disrupted chessboard and was a little angry. This kid is used to being an uncle outside, and he owes it at home? No wonder Daddy let himself kill him. He swung the messed chess back as fast as he could, and pushed it in front of Wu Sanxing. "You can't mess up the chessboard if you push, even if you play mahjong, I can put it back for you."
Wu Sansheng stared at Wu Erbai, obviously not expecting the second child to be entangled. He stared for a long time, not knowing what to do.
In a fight outside, his hands are black, but when he fights with the second child, although he can't beat it, he can't beat the second child to death. Even if he was injured, his father would not let him go. What's more, the second child is too cunning, as long as you offend him, even if you reconcile with him, he will definitely have to give you a stumbling block during the New Year's holidays.
Is it a cowardice now? It's not that he can't, but he is really arrogant outside during this time, and this mood is a little uncontrollable.
He stared at Wu Erbai, and Wu Erbai also stared at him. Wu Sanxing's ferocity is well-known in this generation, and it is said that the fifth master of the dog gave birth to three sons, the eldest is a dog, the second is a fox, and the third is a mad dog. Mad dogs are irrational, and even some old-timers are a little afraid of this loser who doesn't talk about any rules. But Wu Erbai's eyes did not have any fear at all.
How did the second child look at himself when he was bare-assed, and now the second child is still like that bird. After staring for a long time, Wu Sanxing finally compromised, he sat down, began to clean up the chessboard by himself, and said: "Yes, I admit defeat, I am ashamed to cheat." Invite the second brother to dinner another day to make amends. ”
"I want to listen to your logic." Wu Erbai said, "Why don't you accept it if I ask you to, and accept it if you cheat?" ”
Wu Sansheng glanced at Wu Erbai, took his chess pieces that Wu Erbai had eaten, and arranged them neatly one by one, and in a certain order, he knew that Wu Erbai was the kind of person who had to have an order in everything.
"Because it's up to me to cheat, whether I'm cheating, or cheating, or throwing chessboards. As long as I can not lose, I will do it, all these things, I do it myself, I don't need to rely on other people. That's enough for me. Wu Sanxing said, "You know that my father has always disliked me, and if I want to do something since I was a child, he will definitely not like it." Our family is now full of money, you and your eldest brother are not on this, I want to make a name for myself, and I can only rely on myself. ”
Wu Erbai picked up the tea that was already a little cold on the side, and said: "Daddy doesn't want us to have anything to do with this family business, it's rare that we don't have to inherit our father's business, we can do something we like, why don't you understand?" ”
"A lot of things, it's not that Dad said he didn't want us to have a relationship, so we can be okay." Wu Sansheng said. When you put the last piece back in place, you find that you have no breath at all.
and his own people, I really can't get angry.
"Okay, you're satisfied, don't you still have to go to inventory with your eldest brother? Recently, I will choose a day, I will invite you to dinner to make amends, in a few months, you will leave home to study foreigners, the boss will also go to work in the local area, we may not see each other for several years, in this family, I am left with a jobless vagrant, and I will be deserted. Third, I have to invite you a few more times during this time. Wu Sanxing picked up the chessboard and walked to the room.
Wu Erbai looked at him, and suddenly felt that the third child was not the same as what he thought, he always thought that the third child was an arbitrary person, and there was only emotion in his behavior. But now it seems that this uncontrollability comes from a fairly controllable heart.
If the boss is consistent and controllable, and he himself is restrained and controllable, then the third is completely controllable with his internal logic. The boss can see through it at a glance; I can't see through it myself, but I can be predicted by others about the general state of my heart; And the third child, his appearance and heart are two worlds.
The days after the third child are probably the most bumpy of the three of them.
Wu Erbai was a little distressed, he drank the tea in one gulp, and said to Wu Sanxing's back: "The third child." ”
Wu Sanxing turned around: "What are you doing?" ”
"If you have an idea in your heart, no matter what means you want to achieve, sometimes, you have to learn to rely on others, especially your own people. If you think it's best to rely on yourself, then you'd better remember that it's really not good, there are always a few people of your own to look for. ”
"Got it." Wu Sanxing lit a cigarette, smiled, and turned his back.
