Wang Shanhai sent Cheng Mo out of the villa, the May wind was slightly cool, mixed with a light to ethereal floral fragrance, but it was more refreshing.

Wang Shanhai stood at the door and patted Cheng Mo on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry, Cheng Mo, I can't help you, but when Dr. Li comes back from abroad, I will ask him to contact you." ”

Cheng Mo's hair was a little messy from the wind, and he turned to Wang Shanhai and said, "Wang Xi, you are too polite, this is already a great help, thank you very much." After saying that, Mo clasped the strap of his backpack with both hands and bowed to Wang Shanhai again.

For politeness, a means to gain favor without paying the slightest cost, Cheng Mo doesn't mind using it a few more times.

Of course, you have to be polite, and you can't let others think that your humility is very cheap.

Wang Shanhai looked at Cheng Mo's calm face and said, "I will often come to sit in the future, my phone number was also given to you just now, you can also call me if you have anything." ”

Cheng Mo nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back." With that, he turned around and walked towards the path by the lake.

Wang Shanhai said again: "Pay attention to safety on the road." Seeing that Cheng Mo just waved his hand, he didn't look back, and felt that he was doing too much, this kid was smarter than he imagined, but he was too old, and he didn't have the vitality that a teenager should have.

Thinking of Cheng's father and son, Wang Shanhai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Wow! Bad luck and bad fate.

Wang Shanhai watched Cheng Mo's back fade away with his hands behind his back, until he disappeared in the shade of the tree, and then turned around and entered the house, at this moment Xie Minyun was already standing at the entrance and was about to change his shoes.

Xie Minyun put the handbag and coat on the shoe cabinet, and bent down to get the shoes, when he heard the sound of the door closing, he turned his head and looked at Wang Shanhai and said, "Grandpa, I'm also leaving, and there are piano lessons in the afternoon." ”

There is no closeness in the tone, there is a faint resentment, but this resentment is not deliberately aimed at a certain person, but a kind of boredom after failure, like the boredom of playing ten "League of Legends" and not winning a single one.

Wang Shanhai said: "Wait, I still have a few words to tell you....."

Xie Minyun didn't speak, just put the shoes in his hand aside, and followed Wang Shanhai back to the living room in silence, silence is an attitude.

While the two walked towards the living room, Wang Shanhai said without looking back: "Do you remember your favorite Cheng Yongze, Uncle Cheng?"

This beginning was a bit unexpected by Xie Minyun, she originally thought that her grandfather was going to take an ideological education class with her, to be humble and to guard against arrogance and rashness..... didn't expect such a beginning, Xie Minyun carefully recalled Cheng Yongze, frowned, and then stretched his magnolia-like cheeks, his white and flawless face suddenly flushed a hint of red, and then said, "I don't remember....."

Wang Shanhai did not stay in the living room, but walked directly to the four glass doors in the living room towards the lake, he pushed open the glass door, and suddenly a cool breeze poured in, and Xie Minyun, who was thinly dressed, couldn't help but shiver.

The afternoon of May is the most pleasant time in Star City, there is no summer heat, no winter cold and humid, the sun is just right, the breeze is not noisy, especially in such a beautiful place as the Academy of Social Sciences, the green shade makes a rustling sound in the gentle shaking, and the silver sparkling light of the leaping lake paves the layers of visual beauty.

Wang Shanhai bent down and sat directly on the wooden corridor outside, facing the laurel and the rippling Yuejin Lake.

The rickety body and flying white hair became Wang Shanhai's brief annotation, and at this moment, Xie Minyun felt that his grandfather, who had always maintained his childlike innocence, was beginning to grow old.

Wang Shanhai said softly: "Uncle Cheng, who cried and shouted that you were going to marry when you were a child, passed away, and Cheng Mo is his son....."

Xie Minyun, who was standing beside Wang Shanhai, was a little dissatisfied at first: "Who is crying and shouting ....." But before the words were finished, he turned into a somewhat surprised saying: "Go.... Generation.... Done?"

Wang Shanhai put his hands on his knees and said flatly: "Heroes are lonely, and God is jealous of talents.... I don't want to say this, I don't want to tell you not to leave, I want to ask you what you just understood?"

Although it was a little unexpected, Xie Minyun quickly got rid of his memories and feelings, after all, it was all when he was six or seven years old, and his impression of Cheng Yongze had long been blurred, the only thing he still remembered was that Cheng Yongze was very good-looking, and the story he told was very interesting, and at the same time, he had eliminated a lot of disdain for Cheng Mo's pride.

Xie Minyun stood beside Wang Shanhai and said suspiciously: "Grandpa, let me just say, you won't deliberately find this kid to teach me, right?

Wang Shanhai looked at the distance and said lightly: "The mountain is near the moon and the moon is far away, so he said that this mountain is larger than the moon." If a man has eyes greater than the sky, he should see that the mountains are high and the moon is wider. (Note 1)

When Xie Minyun heard Wang Shanhai's tone, she knew that she was wrong, but she was still a little unconvinced: "It's really such a coincidence?"

Wang Shanhai smiled this time and said, "This is the problem of probability.....

Xie Minyun sat down beside Wang Shanhai, the breeze stroked her waterfall-like hair, and also calmed down her originally anxious heart, she said, "But.... Didn't you just say that Uncle Li likes him and must get him to study at Peking University?..... He is in class (9), and he can't even get into Peking University, and he has to rely on relationships..... Even if this kind of person is a little talented, his future achievements must be limited..... I hate a pretentious person like him the most, thinking that he is living with the thinking of a wise man, but when he is in trouble, he still only thinks about taking shortcuts, this kind of person is actually just an ordinary person who is a little clever!"

Wang Shanhai asked rhetorically: "Cheng Mo is in class (9)?"

Xie Minyun said: "He said it himself." ”

Wang Shanhai chuckled and said, "A child like Cheng Mo is the same everywhere. ”

Xie Minyun was a little unhappy with Wang Shanhai's preference for Cheng Mo, but she knew that her grandfather had always looked at people accurately, so she frowned and asked, "What does he have that you can look up to?"

Wang Shanhai said: "Do you know why Cheng Mo said that he couldn't play Go just now?"

Xie Minyun said confidently: "It's just that I really can't go down or know it." ”

Wang Shanhai said: "His father's chess strength is at least a professional eight-dan, and his father once told me that his son's chess strength is not weaker than him, but unfortunately he is limited by physical strength, and can only play fast chess, otherwise it is more than enough to be a professional chess player.... He doesn't play with you, it's true that the game of chess just now has entered a dead end, and nine times out of ten, he can't play it, but who among young people doesn't have the heart to win? With his chess strength, he should be able to fight! If you encounter such a situation, will you want to try it when your own strength is far superior to your opponent, after all, the opponent may still make mistakes! Not to mention that the opponent is still a girl with a beautiful face?"

Xie Minyun opened his mouth slightly, wanting to question, but still didn't speak.

Wang Shanhai continued: "Cheng Mo is also like his father, he never does things that are uncertain and meaningless, he doesn't look like him, but his personality is really carved out of a mold.... You must win, but you always just follow the trend, and you will never have the heart of victory. ”

"I gave you this name, I regret it a little, the original intention was to hope that you can become Xie Jiayushu like Xie Daoyun (Note 2), but then I felt that this name is too big, so I gave you a nickname called Xiaojin, you are talented, but the sense of victory and defeat is too strong, once people have a sense of victory, it is easy to be too persistent, once too persistent, it is easy to deviate, especially in life, life is not a chess game, once you care too much about the victory, then you must be a loser. ”

Xie Minyun was silent and remembered Cheng Mo's ordinary face.

Wang Shanhai stretched out his hand and stroked his granddaughter's hair and smiled: "Of course, you have not lived up to this name now, but you have forgotten the word 'Min', and I also hope that you will have a broad mind..... Teaching you to play Go is to hope to sharpen your sharpness, hope that you can calm down and discover the Zen, but I have been too busy to teach you, and your parents only look at your grades, not your heart, now you only have arrogance, but no arrogance..... But Cheng Mo is the opposite of you, talented and introverted, no arrogance, and arrogant.... It's just that a small Changya Middle School can have such a character, looking at the world, the peak is always outside the cloud mountain..."
