Shen Qingqiu and Fu Tingshen, under the leadership of the housekeeper, came to the water cloud room located in the southeast corner.

In front of the lush vegetation, there is a clear pond, the lotus flowers are particularly delicate, and the fish playing can be faintly seen under the lotus leaves.

Old Man Fu in casual clothes was sitting under the gazebo not far away, and a game of Go was placed in front of him.

The chess paths in the nineteen-way chessboard are unpredictable, fighting each other, although the sunspot has the upper hand, but there is a faint sense of the end of the strong crossbow, and the white son seems to be at a disadvantage, but in fact everything is under control.

As long as there is a slight change, Kuroko will lose all the games.

The old man obviously saw the clue in this, and played with the chess pieces with his fingertips, but he didn't settle down for a long time.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he slowly lifted his eyes, his eyes swept over Shen Qingqiu's body, and an imperceptible cold glow flashed in his eyes.

Fu Tingshen looked at the overall situation, stepped forward, and landed a chess piece on the chessboard.

Old Man Fu frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I've been out for so long, and I even forgot the rules." ”

"The big picture has been decided, and even if you don't fall for a long time, you can't change the outcome." Fu Tingshen looked at Old Man Fu.

"There are no absolutes in everything." Old Man Fu picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip, and there was a majestic coldness in his kind tone, "Although I am old, I am not old enough to discipline you." ”

"Grandchildren don't dare." Although Fu Tingshen was unwilling to obey the old man's discipline in his heart, he still had the least respect in front of the old man, "You know I didn't mean that." ”

If he was unwilling to obey the old man's discipline, then there was no need to bring Shen Qingqiu to the old mansion.

"Do you know how to play chess?" Old Man Fu's words changed, and he suddenly pointed the finger at Shen Qingqiu.

Shen Qingqiu was stunned for a moment, "I know a little bit about fur." ”

Old Man Fu chuckled, "You are modest." ”

He put down the teacup in his hand and motioned for Shen Qingqiu to sit opposite him, "Sit down and accompany me to relieve my boredom?" ”

Shen Qingqiu's posture was neither humble nor arrogant: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

She sat upright in front of the chessboard, holding a white piece and landing on the board.

At this time, Fu Xin walked in from outside, "Sir, everything has been brought here." ”

Fu Tingshen lifted his eyes and gave Fu Xin a look.

The latter stepped forward and opened the several suitcases he had prepared one by one.

Inside are a pair of blue and white porcelain vases, a landscape painting from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and an inkstone from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

"These are all prepared for you by Qingqing." Fu Ting's deep face did not change color.

The chess pieces under Old Man Fu's hands were aggressive, but his face was so calm that he couldn't see any emotion, and said meaningfully: "Miss Shen really has a heart." ”

"When I first arrived, I didn't pay tribute to it." Shen Qingqiu is still neither humble nor arrogant.

In the face of Old Man Fu's sharp chess move, Shen Qingqiu responded calmly and unhurriedly, and found the magic of breaking the game.

Seeing that Shen Qingqiu's chess pieces blocked Heizi's way, Old Man Fu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint and cold smile flashed under his eyes.

Even if he finds a flaw, he still has this calm appearance, this kind of heart and strategy, which is not something ordinary people have.

Seeing that the two entered the final battle, and the sunspot held by Old Man Fu was gradually at a disadvantage, the housekeeper stepped forward in time to add tea to Old Man Fu.

Just as the teacup fell, his hand suddenly trembled.

Teacups dropped, and piping hot water spilled all over the board.

Old Man Fu knew that the housekeeper was helping him out of the siege, so he pretended to be angry and said, "A good chess game was ruined by you!" ”

"I was negligent." Butler Road.

Old Man Fu waved his hand, "Okay, okay, hurry up and send someone to clean up here, so as not to make the guests laugh." ”

The butler respectfully said, "Yes." ”

While the maid was packing up his things, Old Man Fu raised his eyes to look at Shen Qingqiu again.

If you are an ordinary person, even if you are familiar with Go, you will hide it clumsily, deliberately lose to him, and no matter how bad it is, you will get a tie in order to maintain decency.

But Shen Qingqiu did the opposite, not only did he refuse to restrain his edge, but when he was strong, he forcibly killed him without leaving a piece of armor.

She didn't want to be angry, but wanted to get her own affirmation.

"Miss Shen's first time here, you take her around and don't snub people." Old Man Fu instructed the housekeeper beside him.

The housekeeper bowed slightly, and looked at Shen Qingqiu with a polite smile on his face, "Miss Shen, please come with me." ”

Old Man Fu's intentions, Shen Qingqiu knew it, and he probably had something to talk to Fu Tingshen alone.

After saying hello, she followed the butler away.

Fu Tingshen frowned slightly, his eyes staring at Shen Qingqiu's back as he left.

He gave Fu Xin a look.

The latter understood and followed without hurrying.

Seeing Fu Tingshen's appearance of being hooked away, Old Man Fu snorted angrily, "You and I are here to eat people in Longtan Tiger's Den, can't you?!" ”

"It's a more dangerous place than the Longtan Tiger's Den."

After the words fell, Old Man Fu put the teacup in his hand on the table.

There was a muffled sound of 'tuk', and for a moment there was silence all around.

Except for the rustle of the bamboo forest in the breeze, it seems that everything in the world has turned into nothingness.

I don't know how long it took, Old Man Fu spoke again, "As long as you marry the girl from the Zhu family, I don't have to ask about you and this little girl." ”

Hearing this, Fu Ting's cold eyes were opened, wrapped in anger, his thin lips opened lightly, and he said word by word: "Your future granddaughter-in-law, the next head of the Fu family, her surname is Shen, her name is Shen Qingqiu!" ”

The tone of the understatement, but the words fell, it was more like a decision that could not be ignored.

"You're determined to do it with me!" Old Man Fu's tone was light, his face was not turbulent, and his voice did not fluctuate.

But Fu Yao was clearly aware of the tense atmosphere in the air.

For a moment, I couldn't help but silence myself.

——

At the same time, Shen Qingqiu, under the leadership of the housekeeper and under the protection of Fu Xin, visited the old mansion.

The housekeeper occasionally introduces the priceless plants in the garden, and among the exotic flowers and plants, orchids are the most varied.

Shen Qingqiu guessed that these should be related to Grandma Fu.

She chatted casually with the butler, but her eyes looked around from time to time.

There are people hiding in every corner around here, and they should be secretly protecting Old Man Fu's safety.

Is it worth taking such precautions just in your own home?

Shen Qingqiu retracted his gaze thoughtfully, and continued to follow the butler's footsteps forward.

"Can I go to the flower room and have a look?" Shen Qingqiu looked at the housekeeper.

The housekeeper nodded, "Of course, Miss Shen wait a while, I'll send someone to prepare." ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you."

After the housekeeper left, Shen Qingqiu could lower his voice, "Has something happened here recently?" ”

Seeing that Fu Xin didn't answer, she asked, "Can't you say?" ”

"Yes." Fu Xin hesitated for a moment and replied cautiously, "Mainly because Mr. brought you back this time." ”
