Chapter 2228 Let's Play Chess
"What are you afraid of, you useless guy," the old man said in high spirits, "Don't look at me as over a hundred years old, but I am very energetic, why are you standing here, go get it."
Well, the guard had to take out his chess, but when he came out, he was surprised that it was not so cold here, but still quite warm. In broad daylight, he hadn't noticed that it was a small greenhouse, and there was glass outside. Because it was transparent, he didn't notice it just now.
He quickly put the chess on the table for the old man and set up the chessboard. Of course, he really didn't know how to play chess, but he had seen the chief play for a long time, so he was used to it. Of course, his chess skills were too poor, and he was not a good chess player. The old chief always beat him without leaving a single piece of armor. He hated playing chess with the chief the most.
Men are competitive in their hearts. If they don't know how to be competitive, then they are cowards. Of course, he wants to win, but he has never won once. Tell me, can he still be content with this? But the old chief, when no one plays chess, he must be behind him no matter what. Then he was sweating coldly and went crazy after a while.
He is over a hundred years old. Can't he give in to the young people? Don't you know that young people are full of blood? This is absolutely not allowed. What if the blood vessels are so angry that they explode?
"Xizi, come and play a few games with me."
The corner of the guard's eye twitched. Chief, can you not drag me along? Can you not ask someone else to play with you? Ask Miss Lu, or the kitten Miss Lu raises can also be used. They don't have claws.
Of course, Mr. Lu will not play chess with his granddaughter. He doesn't want to anger his little granddaughter. Besides, his little granddaughter has to prepare delicious meals for him.
His Xunxun is a good cook. If anyone marries her, it will be a disaster.
He now wants to find a good husband for his granddaughter, whom he has loved since she was a child, and a husband who will love her all her life. She should not be like her grandmother, who met the wrong man and never had a good life, nor like her mother, who suffered a lot when she was young.
They don't believe in the rumors about the so-called Lu family girl. The honor and wealth of the Lu family were fought for by the men of their Lu family, and have nothing to do with the women of the Lu family.
He has never thought about asking his Xunxun to sacrifice anything for the Lu family. She doesn't have to sacrifice anything. She can live a carefree life like now. Being the proprietress of an inn, no matter how much money she makes, as long as she is happy, it's fine.
And if this matter is not settled, he can't close his eyes for a day. Even if he really closes his eyes, he will die with his eyes open.
He walked to the stone table with a cane and sat down. Well, this table is a good thing for playing chess. It has its own chess grid. They just need chess pieces.
He moved the chess pieces quickly, and the guards were killed in a short while. In the end, he was directly checked. He lost his checkmate.
He lost three games in a row. His fingers were also grasping the table. He resisted the urge to overturn the table. However, even if he wanted to overturn the table, he would not succeed. This table was made of a whole stone. Even if he really became a strong man, he could not just throw a stone table aside.
"Come again."
Mr. Lu was in the mood now. He had to kill it for 300 rounds today. He hadn't played chess so happily for a long time. It felt like this was such a good environment. There were bamboos all around, and he could hear the sound of the wind blowing on the bamboo forest, but it was very warm all around.
The guard almost knelt down.
He finally understood why when he came to be the guard for Mr. Lu, the old guard in front of him looked sympathetic and patted his shoulder again.
"Young man, do a good job."
And now he knew what they meant by what they said at that time, that is, young man, do a good job, be patient, and don't be angry to death. But why did he feel that one day, he would be angry to death by Mr. Lu.
And she was on the verge of being angry to death.
"One more game."
Mr. Lu had already set up his chess pieces.
The guard was so anxious that a stone fell from his forehead. What if he didn't want to play anymore?
He really didn't want to play anymore.
Can he kneel down?
Just when he was about to kneel down and beg Master Lu to let him go, he suddenly turned around and saw someone standing outside the greenhouse.
"Who?" He stood up with a whoosh, messing up the chessboard. Of course, he would never admit that he did it on purpose, just to avoid playing chess with the old man. In order not to play chess, he really didn't want to lose face.
The greenhouse glass door was opened, but no wind came out. The main reason was that there were always two doors here. The outer one was windproof, and the inner one was for heat preservation.
The guard was always at the door, staring at the man who walked in. What was the meaning of this uninvited entry?
"Can you play chess?"
Grandpa Lu asked the person who came, not caring who he was. However, if he could come in, Ba Cheng must be a chess lover. Even if he didn't love it, he would at least watch it. If he didn't watch it, what was he doing here?
Then he would definitely play chess.
"Yes," the man who came in came over and sat in the position of the guard just now.
He stretched out his hand and set up the chess pieces himself. This move showed that he was absolutely not lying, and he really knew how to play chess.
Grandpa Lu is now in the prime of his chess playing and has started playing. Even the guards stood quietly on one side, and stood still for a while. These two people were like the two hostile parties in the field, going back and forth, and taking the lead.
Grandpa Lu is very good at playing chess. No matter how he was said in the past, he was a man of both civil and military talents. He has been playing chess since he was a child. He is more than a hundred years old. Naturally, his chess skills are not bad. Otherwise, it would be impossible to scare the Lu family, including the guards, so that no one dares to play a game with him now.
But this time it seemed like there was an opponent. This young man who came from nowhere really had some tricks. He was not at all inferior to Mr. Lu, and even had the upper hand.
"I lost."
Mr. Lu lost very happily. He hadn't lost so happily for a long time. Of course, he also lost happily.
