Chapter 153: Mr. Lumber
On Zitong Mountain, in the purple forest, there is a purple tung wooden house.
The hut was so simple and so clean that even a woman could not believe that it was a single man's house.
Men are usually sloppy in the eyes of women, so women enseal the truth that if a man leaves a woman, he will definitely live a dirty and messy life.
But Mr. Lumber didn't, and Mr. Lumber never walked into any other woman in his life except for his mother. Of course, what woman would marry a young man who was so poor?
The ability belongs to the ability, and the ability can't be exchanged for money, and there is still no ability.
The world is full of talented poor people, so it is not a reason for you to be poor. The people who think that they have no talent are some blind and arrogant people. Being better than others is not worth being happy about, what is really worth being happy about is being better than your past self. Many people think that they don't meet talents, so they don't want to forge ahead, but in fact, it won't be long before he is the same. ”
Mr. Lumber is actually a capable man, but he is very poor, and he is simply inadequate. But his life is very happy. He never thought that he would not meet talents, because the current life was already the life he wanted.
He likes the feeling of "one person is full, and the whole family is not hungry". It never occurred to him to pursue more wealth, even if he did.
Although he was poor, he supported himself and did not suffer from cold and hunger, so his life was rich and self-sufficient.
The Purple Tung Wooden House is very small, with only three rooms, a bedroom on the left, a study on the right, and the main house in the middle. Kitchen, only in one corner of the bedroom. Three rooms, the bedroom is the smallest, the main house is second, and the study is actually the largest, which is not in line with the habit of ordinary people to build houses.
The study is large, but there is a reason for it, because there are the most things in it.
Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, swords, guns, swords, sticks, flowers, trees, birds and beasts, but everything he likes, everything. It can really be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.
Mr. Lumber's house is small, but his yard is quite large. He used a fence to enclose a yard around the wooden house, which was also very spacious, and it was a very good choice to feed some chickens and ducks in the fence.
There are many wild beasts in the mountains, and last night he broke the fence to the east of him, and a few chickens were gone.
Mr. Lumber is an easy-going man, not angry at all, and goes to cut a few bamboos and slowly mends the fence.
Mr. Lumber was busy in the yard when he suddenly saw a person from the bottom of the mountain walking up quickly, and his pace was a little anxious. Mr. Lumber's eyes were excellent, and he recognized the person from afar, it was his old friend Mr. Bai Haibai.
"Bai Lao, why are you in such a hurry today." Mr. Lumber asked.
"It's not a secret, the old man came this time because he asked for something." Bai Hai said directly.
"You are old and rich, how can you ask for me, a poor descendant!" Mr. Lumber thought that Bai Hai was joking, so he said jokingly.
"I'm not joking, what I'm saying is true, this time it's indeed 'going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing'!" White Sea Express.
"What's the matter, it's a letter." Mr. Lumber's face suddenly turned cold.
Bai Haiben is a person who is good at observing words and feelings, and he has already seen that Mr. Lumber is a little reluctant in his heart, but because of the friendship between the two, he has not shown it. However, he couldn't run in vain, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "Here's the thing." I have a nephew who has a very strong opponent, and neither of us can cope with it, so I have come to ask Mr. Lumber to come out of the mountain and help me. ”
When Mr. Lumber heard this, his face was immediately frosty, and he said nothing, but dropped the fence and went into the house. Bai Hai saw that Mr. Felling was angry, and his old face was a little unbearable, so he had to follow the house stupidly.
Although Mr. Logging was angry, he still said very tactfully: "I am not from the rivers and lakes, and I never interfere in this kind of grievances." ”
"I also know that you have always been unkind, but because the matter is urgent, I can't find other helpers for a while, so I thought of you." Bai Hai explained.
"Mr. Bai, I'm sorry. I don't want to ask about it, and I can't afford to ask about it. You can afford to look down on it, and I think you have to ask for another smart about this matter. Mr. Lumber politely declined.
Bai Hai had actually been prepared, and he didn't want to make it difficult for him, so he was a little disappointed and said: "Since this is the case, then please forgive the old man for disturbing him, and the old man will leave." ”
After Bai Hai finished speaking, he got up and went out. Mr. Lumber neither spoke nor answered, but only watched him go.
Bai Hai was an extremely intelligent man, but he could already see that Mr. Lumber was a little hesitant. So he came to retreat and force Mr. Timber to make a decision as soon as possible.
"Wait!" Mr. Lumber stopped him suddenly, and he waited for the result he wanted.
"If you win a game against me, I'll help you, if you can't win, it's no wonder I'm not guilty." Mr. Logging said.
"Still playing chess at this time? Human life is at stake, saving people is like fighting fire! There is no time left. Bai Hai originally thought that Mr. Logging would readily agree, but he was instead commanded by Mr. Logging and couldn't help but be anxious.
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky. If he can't wait for us to save him, then his life will just be doomed here. Mr. Lumber spoke lightly, and didn't seem to care about the lives and deaths of others.
Bai Hai knew that Mr. Lumber was not a person who cared about life and death, and he didn't understand how Mr. Lumber could come up with such a trick.
However, the matter has come to this point, Bai Hai did not agree and could not succeed, so he had to set up a chess game with Mr. Logging in the courtyard.
The chess skills of the two are between the best, if in normal times, the winner or loser is in five or five. But for some reason, as soon as this game opened, Bai Hai was immediately at a disadvantage. Seeing that Bai Hai was about to lose, he was even more anxious, and the more anxious he was, the more mistakes he made. In this way, in a moment, Bai Hai is already in danger of losing.
"Mr. Bai has been able to crisscross the sea for so many years, so it is naturally impossible not to have the style of a general. Don't you know that when you go into battle, the more chaotic your heart is, the easier it is to lose? Mount Tai collapsed in front, and the face did not change, this is the real wind of the general. There are so many flaws in this game, it's obviously not your old style! Mr. Lumber said leisurely as he played a chess game.
Bai Hai had the heart to think about this, and only said: "The matter is urgent, so the chess game is chaotic." ”
Timber shook his head first and said, "No, it's not that the chess is messed up, it's that your old heart is messed up." If you are in turmoil, whether you are playing chess or going into battle, you will lose. ”
Bai Hai is a smart person, and he was suddenly drunk: "I see, thank you for your advice." ”
"That's fine, let's go." Mr. Logging said
"Can't play chess?"
"Come back and go down."
