"Dad, Xiao Liu came to our house!" Zhao Junsheng shouted upstairs the moment he entered.
Not long later, Zhao Limin came downstairs with a coat, seeing me, he immediately waved at me, "Xiao Liu, you came! Sit sit sit! "
I changed my shoes and said respectfully, "Hello, Grandpa Zhao!"
"Good good! Xiao Liu, sit down and drink some water, I'm playing go with an old friend upstairs, I'll come down later, "Zhao Limin said to me.
"Dad, let Xiao Liu go up and accompany you, Yanyan and I will help Yu-ma make some food, Xiao Liu will eat at our house tonight," Zhao Junsheng suggested.
"That's good! Xiao Liu, come up and help grandpa give some advice, so that Old Ye doesn't always think too highly of himself, let's grandpa and grandpa work together to kill him without leaving anything behind! "Zhao Limin said with a smile.
I gave Zhao Yanyan a questioning look, but Zhao Yanyan shook her head, and expressed that she didn't know who Grandpa Zhao's old friend was.
I followed Zhao Limin up the stairs, I didn't know what Grandpa Zhao meant, killing the other party without leaving anything behind, was that being polite? Or was that what he really thought? I really couldn't understand the words of important people, I'll see when the time comes, at most I'll pretend to be dumb when he asks me to give advice.
We arrived at a small study on the second floor, there was a fifty something year old man sitting inside, he was sipping tea and staring at a game of go that wasn't finished yet.
"Old Ye, I'll introduce you to a young man! Liu Lei, young and promising! "After Zhao Limin entered the room, he pointed at me and introduced.
"Oh? There aren't many young people that can catch Elder Zhao's eye! This young man definitely isn't a normal person! "Old Ye said.
"You flatter me, it's all Grandpa Zhao's praise, Ye …" I wanted to say that Grandpa Ye was too kind, but this guy's age didn't look like a grandpa!
"Hehe, just call me Ye-bobo, I'm younger than Elder Zhao, and my daughter is around the same age as you!" Ye-bobo said.
"Haha, Old Ye, are you getting anxious when you mention your daughter? Who told you to have a child so late, my granddaughter is about to get married, your daughter hasn't found a husband yet right! "Zhao Limin teased.
"Elder Zhao, I respect you being older than me, and we were comrades in the army back then, but you can't always use this to bully me right! Sigh! But that daughter of mine is really worrying. She's already so big, yet she doesn't even have a boyfriend! "Uncle Ye sighed.
"Ai … I say, Old Ye, where are your eyes looking at, Little Liu is my Yanyan's boyfriend!" Zhao Limin teased.
"Don't worry, Elder Zhao, how can I steal your grandson-in-law!" Uncle Ye laughed.
"Come, Xiao Liu, help grandpa take a look. Where should I place my next move?" Zhao Limin said to me.
Ever since I entered the room, I saw the chess game. The black pieces were obviously fewer than the white pieces, and Grandpa Zhao was holding the black pieces. If we were to look at it from a numerical point of view, Grandpa Zhao currently had more losses than wins. However, Go was all about balance and looking at the big picture. Although there were many white pieces, there were also many black pieces. If the black pieces could take the initiative, then the outcome would still be uncertain.
However, I didn't dare to speak carelessly. Who knew what these two old men were thinking? If I'm right, Grandpa Zhao might think that I'm not giving him face. If I'm wrong, he might think that I'm an idiot. It seemed that there was some truth to the saying of watching a chess game without speaking.
Thus I said, "Grandpa Zhao is playing chess with Ye-bobo, wanbei doesn't dare to speak carelessly."
"It's fine, just say it. Grandpa is about to lose anyways!" Zhao Limin waved his hand and said.
"Hehe, Elder Zhao, at least you have some self-awareness! I thought that you deliberately found a younger generation to play chess with me to hide the fact that you lost! "Uncle Ye said.
"Heh! Xiao Liu, go and play him! You have to win, if you lose, I won't marry my granddaughter to you! "Zhao Limin said angrily.
I sweat! What kind of condition is this? It's practically a threat! Isn't this forcing a duck onto a perch?
Seeing my awkward expression, Ye-bobo said, "It's fine, Xiao Liu, just relax and play chess with me! If your wife is gone, then I'll marry my daughter to you! My daughter is as pretty as a flower, and isn't any worse than his granddaughter! "
"Look! Look! It was premeditated! The fox's tail is finally showing right! You really do have ideas about our Xiao Liu! "Zhao Limin pointed at Ye-bobo's nose and shouted.
I sweated like crazy again! Why are these two fifty to sixty year old geezers like two children, can this kind of thing be joked about? What's more, my current love life is already messed up enough, the matters with Xia Jing, Ye XiaoXiao, and Chen Weier already made Zhao YanYan put up with me again and again, if another one came, Zhao-yatou might tear me apart.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhao Limin said seriously, "I order you as your future Grandpa Yue, to go and kill your Ye-bobo completely!"
I'm going to faint, since Zhao Limin already said that, I couldn't really refuse, and could only sit on the side of the chessboard, and said, "Ye-bobo, sorry!"
Very quickly, I entered the zone.
I already understood the entire situation, winning against Ye-bobo was something that would happen sooner or later, but wouldn't winning against him be not giving him face at all? Since he was an elder, and Grandpa Zhao's comrade. I know the concept of comrade, although they aren't brothers, they are as close as brothers, they are all brothers that crawled on the line between life and death, that relationship isn't something that normal people can imagine.
Although the two of them were joking with each other, if they really gave it to me, a junior, I'm afraid that even Grandpa Zhao would feel awkward!
However, if I lose, let's not talk about whether Grandpa Zhao's face is okay, what if he really doesn't marry Yanyan to me in a fit of anger, then wouldn't my intestines turn green with regret? I really regretted agreeing to Zhao Junsheng's request and agreeing to come up.
It really is a single slip that causes everlasting regret! My brain was working at full speed as I calculated my next move! I can't lose, nor can I win, so I could only draw. Finally, just as my brain cells were about to dry up, Ye-bobo and I also ended this game of chess.
Looking at the black and white pieces on the chessboard, I pretended to feel pity and said, "I didn't think that this junior would still lose to his wife after using all his strength."
"Xiao Liu! You really did use all your strength! "Ye-bobo exclaimed." You think that us two old fellows couldn't tell? If you wanted to win, you would have already won! You actually spent so much effort to make a draw in a game of endgame, I really suspect if you are a computer or not! "
I faint, they still found out even though I hid it so well, there's no need to mention this awkwardness! My original good intentions turned into purposefully showing off! Who did I offend? Who did I offend? First, I almost caught them in bed, then I went hungry, and now I was caught to play chess for no reason! Today is really my unlucky day!
