Chapter 18 Knock Chess Tintin

Zeng Yu smiled and said, "Brother Sanchi hasn't heard of Zhahuotuan, Beauty Bureau? The woman came to pester me on the dock before. Seeing that I had an old mother and young sister, it was inconvenient to blackmail me, so I turned around and found Brother Sanchi, haha."

When Mao Xiaoer, a mate from Sihaiju, saw that the woman was gone, he said bluntly: "That woman is the wife of Liu Kong, the most famous scoundrel here, who specializes in blackmailing people from other places. If Mr. Zheng follows her, he will inevitably set up a plan for you to get into it. Then Liu Kong and a few scoundrels said fiercely that you seduce his wife, take your property, and beat you out."

Zheng Shi said in surprise: "There is such a thing. Is there no law in the king? The government doesn't care?"

The guy Mao Xiaoer laughed and said to himself: "This is a foolish scholar who doesn't know the world's love. No wonder Mr. Zeng calls him Sanqi."

Zeng Yu smiled and said, "Maybe the Sanqi Brother can sit in his arms without any confusion, and that scoundrel can take advantage of it."

The guy Mao Xiaoer smiled and said, "Then Liu Kong only dares to bully ordinary people. Mr. Zheng is a scholar-in-law. Even if he hooks up with his wife, he will not dare to fart."

Zheng Shi laughed and scolded, "It's unreasonable to talk nonsense! Hurry up and arrange a guest room for me, the best thing to be next to Mr. Zeng."

Mao Xiaoer agreed repeatedly and went there quickly.

...

A square pine table, a bamboo rack and an oil lamp, and the sound of playing chess is Dingding. Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi are playing chess on a chessboard. Zheng Shi is a chess slut, and he has to bring chess tools when he comes to the city for the exam. Last year, he and Zeng Yu made a reservation at Bailudong Academy in Lushan because of Go, and then they became a big deal.

Zheng Shi's chess skills are really not good. He used to be Zeng Yu, but now he can't play even more. However, people with poor chess skills are often addicted to chess. Zheng Shi is so happy to meet Zeng Yu in this river mouth that he must play two games.

While talking and playing chess, Zheng Shi asked, "Jiuli, what happened to your family? Why did you bring Lingtang Lingmei here? Jiuli, you and my close friend, don't meet me. If you have any difficulties, just say it, maybe I can help you." Zheng Shi saw Zeng Yu chatting and laughing as usual, and was not depressed and depressed because of failing the exam, but why did he leave without saying goodbye in Guangxin Mansion City, and why did he drag his elders and young people away from Ishida? As a friend, of course he should care about-

Zeng Yu felt Zheng Shi's sincere friendship. Although Zeng Yu was arrogant and unaware of the world, he was hated by Jiang Yuanrui and Xie Zidan, he also made good friends like Zheng Shi. Zeng Yu now told him about his own family background and the reason for leaving home. He asked Lu Hanlin to recommend a book to seek a make-up exam. He beat Jiang outside Anminmen. Xie and the two of them were all told one by one, without hiding it.

"Okay." Zheng Shi knocked a white piece on the chessboard, clapped his hands and laughed, "I don't know Xie Zidan, then Jiang Yuanrui's face is disgusting. Speaking of you that day-" he turned around and said, "Jiuli, you know martial arts. It's really beyond my expectations. Can you fly over the eaves and walk around the walls? How many people can you fight?"

Zeng Yu laughed: "Brother Sanchi, you have seen too much Tang Zhiqi, and you are still flying over the eaves and walking around the walls. My skills are only enough to hit two village men."

Zheng Shi was very interested in Zeng Yuhui Association's martial arts skills and said, "Let's talk about this later. Jiuli, since you have the opportunity to get a re-examination, you must strive for it. Your eight-legged essay is better than me. This is not my pretentiousness. In fact, I, Zheng Shi, is not the kind of person who is easy to be accused of others, but why don't you win? I told you that the day before yesterday, I went to Sanjiang Wharf with the students who won this time to send the Grandmaster of Seizure to Fuzhou. I heard that Mr. Huang hired two friends to help him review the papers because of his old age and illness. These two friends are just scholars and fame. I am afraid that my eyes are not very clever when reading articles. Jiuli, your eight-legged essay is unrestrained, but in the eyes of that restrained old scholar, it is not desirable, so I think you are very likely to be surrendered to the hands of Mr. Huang."

Since the Jiajing Dynasty, it is common for the chief examiner to hire a master of the mud and help him to mark the papers together, because more and more candidates, for example, there were more than 1,500 children participating in this Guangxin Prefecture Examination. Each candidate had a question of the sutra and a four-book question, and each article was about 400 words, and the total was less than 1.2 million words. It was necessary to be fully admitted within ten days. It is conceivable that the officials in the early Ming Dynasty were relatively diligent, and Zhengde became lazy afterwards. The staff and the master began to appear. Huang Guoqing, deputy envoy of Jiangxi, was fifty years old and weak and sickly. It was very common to ask two friends to help him mark the papers.

Zeng Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I am so lucky when I was a bad guy. I don't blame the unfairness of the imperial examination. I just want to compete for a chance to take the make-up exam, but I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity."

Zheng Shi was not busy playing chess for now, putting the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box, and said, "It's hard to fight for it, but you can still fight for it. There is Lu Hanlin's recommendation book, and you have a talented reputation. Last year, Huang Tixue should have heard of your name at Bailudong Academy."

After a change of topic, Zheng Shi asked, "Jiuli, since you are going to Yuanzhou to take the make-up exam, would you take Lingtang and the young girl on the road?"

Zeng Yu said: "I originally planned to let Jiaci and my younger sister stay at Shangrao's sister's house for three months, but after beating Jiang Yuanrui and Xie Zidan, Jiaci stayed in Shangrao and was afraid of being implicated, so she had to go on the road together."

Zheng Shi said: "Why didn't Jiuli think of me?"

"What did Brother Sanchi say?" Zeng Yu didn't understand what Zheng Shi meant for a moment.

Zheng Shi said: "Jiuli, you should know that I am also a widowed mother in the hall. Just go to Yuanzhou, and Ling Ci and her younger sister live in a humble house. No matter how many days you live, it doesn't matter. Although my family is mediocre, I also have dozens of acres of thin fields. It won't be difficult for a few people to eat at home."

Zeng Yu was happy. If his mother and Niu Niu stayed at Zheng's house for a few months, it would be better than running thousands of miles away. It was difficult to travel, and it was hard to get on the boat and car. It was the summer summer. If his mother or Niu Niu got sick on the road, it would be really painful.

Zheng Shi said again: "Zhu Jing is quite wise. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have invited Ling Tang and Ling Mei to stay for a long time."

Zeng Yuxi said, "Thank you, Brother Sanchi, please report to your family."

Zheng Shi said: "Okay, let's talk now. If Lingtang is not at ease, you can visit the humble house for a few days to see if you get along well with my mother and Zhujing. I think there is no problem. My mother and Zhujing are both very easy to get along with."

Zeng Yu went to the next room to knock on the door. It was Niu Niu who came to open the door and said with a "shush": "Brother, speak softly, my mother has fallen asleep--"

"Are you fish?" Zeng's mother, Zhou, spoke in the bed.

Niu Niu stuck out her tongue at Zeng Yu: "It turns out that my mother is not asleep."

Niu Niu's shaved head has now grown half an inch long hair. Her two hairs left in the bun are now loose, and the ends of her hair are hanging to her waist and back, shaking very cutely.

Zeng Yu said: "Why isn't Niu still sleeping?"

Niu Niu said, "Just going to sleep, didn't my brother say he was sleeping with Brother Sanchi? Why did he come back?"

Zeng Yu entered the room and turned around and closed the door, saying, "Brother wants to talk to his mother if you have something to do."

Niu Niu asked in a low voice: "Brother, why is the Sanchi brother next door called Sanchi brother? Is he very stupid?"

There is no difference between being crazy and being stupid in Yongfeng dialect. It means being stupid. Niu Niu heard Zeng Yu call Zheng Shi the third child brother, and San Chi is just being stupid and being stupid. Niu Niu is very curious and has wanted to ask a long time ago—

Zeng Yu smiled and reached out to rub Niu Niu's head, saying, "Go to bed quickly, I'll tell you tomorrow."

Niu Niu said, "I want tomorrow again." As she said that, she looked at Zeng Yu's neck and thought to herself, "It's so far away from Ishida now. I want to ask my brother if I can tell my mother about the branch scratching her neck?"

At this time, when Niu Niu heard that her brother and Ah Niu were talking about hiding to the house of the Sanchi Brother, she pricked up her ears and heard that Zheng Shi had a daughter, so she asked: "Brother, how old is the daughter of Sanchi Brother?"

Zeng Yu said: "You are two years younger than you. When you arrive at Zheng's house, you can play with her."

Niu Niu is looking forward to having friends playing games with her.

Zeng’s mother, Zhou, agreed to visit the Zheng family in Guixi. If it is appropriate, she would stay at the Zheng family for two months and wait for Zeng Yu to come back from the make-up exam before making plans.

After hearing Zeng Yu's reply, Zheng Shi said happily: "Then we will go to Ehu Academy early tomorrow morning and set off by boat before noon. When it gets dark, we will reach Yingtanfang in Guixi. The humble house is very close to the river bank, only more than a hundred steps."

Although it was said that he would get up early to visit Ehu Academy, Zheng Shi still had to pull Zeng Yu to finish the game of chess. Zeng Yu had to cheer up and kill a big dragon with more than 30 sons in Zheng Shi's white chess to be finished. Zheng Shi was very sorry and felt that it was a pity to lose. If it weren't for the time being, he really wanted to pull Zeng Yu to another game.

The two of them fell asleep. When Zeng Yuxing's eight-duanjin guide method, he heard Zheng Shi sighing, and was very upset about a certain chess move. He said to himself that if the chess moves a place, he will win. The chess is a big deal and the whole game is lost. What a pity...
