Poor Family Chapter 149

Chapter 149, the ebb and flow

"Does the lotus look good?"

"It's beautiful. It would be even better if I could get a few of them to put in vases and enjoy them from time to time."

Looking at Shi Fuxin who answered freely and was not polite at all, Old Duke Xiahou smiled: "Little girl, the old man's lotus is not so good."

Shi Fuxin tilted her head in a thoughtful manner, her almond eyes turned straight, and when her eyes glanced at the chessboard, she smiled brightly: "If I can solve the chess game, the old man would be willing to give me some lotus flowers and let me take them back." Go home to honor the elders?"

Old Duke Xiahou raised his brows high, with a meaningful smile on his face.

Going home with the lotus from the Duke's Mansion, this little girl is pretty good.

"Can you play chess?"

Shi Fuxin nodded, then shook her head again: "A little bit, but not very proficient."

Old Duke Xiahou smiled: "If you are not proficient, then you may not be able to solve this chess game."

Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "If you don't try, how do you know I can't solve it?"

Old Duke Xiahou smiled and shook his head: "Little girl, it is a good thing to know how to fight for opportunities, but if you don't have that ability, you still want to be brave. Once things go wrong, you will not only be ashamed, but also unlovable."

Shi Fuxin blinked her eyes: "Grandpa, there are no absolutes in everything, sometimes it is necessary to take some risks."

Old Duke Xiahou laughed and looked at the chessboard. Although he didn't make a sound, his expression showed that he was willing to let Shi Fuxin try.

Shi Fuxin smiled and walked over to sit down.

In the previous chess game, the old Duke Xiahou held the white pieces, and Dongfang Changqing held the black pieces.

Shi Fuxin stared at the chessboard for a while, then naturally picked up the white pieces, and then quickly placed them.

"you"

Old Duke Xiahou just wanted to say that Shi Fuxin was messing around, but when he saw her position, he shut up immediately, and looked at Shi Fuxin in surprise: "Why did you think of falling here?"

Shi Fuxin smiled: "Grandfather, I don't know much about chess skills, but I know that in chess, one is to avoid having no way out, and the other is to make the opponent have no way out."

"As long as you follow these two ideas, then the place where I settle is the best choice at the moment."

Hearing these remarks, the old Duke Xiahou looked up to Shi Fuxin a lot.

The little girl's position is really good, she can untie the hole Dongfang Changqing dug for him, why didn't he think of it before?

But if he said that this move would make Dongfang Changqing nowhere to go, he disagreed.

"Little girl, you can't just play chess with your eyes on your eyes. Come on, let's continue this chess game, and you will take Changqing's place."

Shi Fuxin glanced at the chessboard, resolutely refused, and said with a smile: "Grandfather, why don't you take over Dongfang Changqing, so that you can change your thinking, and I'll follow your move."

The old man was almost surrounded to death by Dongfang Changqing, and if he continued with the previous tricks, she would block him so that he would have nowhere to go and nowhere to go.

Old Duke Xiahou glanced at Shi Fuxin, heard what she meant, and immediately hummed in his heart, what an arrogant little girl, dare to look down on him, okay, he wants to see how much she weighs .

"Then come on."

Immediately, the two began to play back and forth.

Thanks to Dongfang Changqing's previous layout, the old Duke Xiahou moved smoothly at first, but gradually, his speed of making moves became slower and slower, and his expression became more and more serious.

At first, when Shi Fuxin drank two sips of tea, the old Duke Xiahou was able to conceive a son; later, when Shi Fuxin drank a cup of tea, the old Duke Xiahou was not able to conceive a son.

Why.

Looking at the old Duke Xiahou who was motionless and staring at the chessboard, the villain in Shi Fuxin's heart kept sighing.

She was already very distracted, and deliberately left several loopholes, but the old Duke Xiahou didn't know if he didn't see it, or he didn't leave on purpose, and he was stuck there motionless.

For fifteen or two quarters of an hour, Shi Fuxin could still sit still, but after half an hour passed, Shi Fuxin felt a little ready to move.

Get up for a while and pour the tea, and look at the lotus in the pond for a while

At the end, Shi Fuxin wanted to get up and stretch her arms and legs.

During the period, Wanger saw the old Duke Xiahou and Shi Fuxin staying in the pavilion, worried that there was not enough water in the teapot, so he came over to change the teapot, and Shi Fuxin took the opportunity to ask for some snacks.

Just drinking tea made her hungry.

Wang'er was probably the first time he met a guest who offered to beg for food. He froze for a moment, then looked at the master who was addicted to the chess game, and then nodded with a smile.

Soon, several plates of delicate pastries were served.

Seeing that there was bird's nest and red date cake in the snack, Shi Fuxin smiled and narrowed her eyes.

She really likes to eat bird's nest, but unfortunately, top-grade bird's nest is rare, there is no way to buy it, and she can't buy it even if she has money. She only ate it once in the uncle's house.

Guo Gong's mansion is rich and powerful, and entertains guests with bird's nest casually.

With something to eat, Shi Fuxin is not so boring, eating cakes and admiring the lotus at the same time, looking leisurely and leisurely, Wanger is a little tongue-tied.

Shi Wuye's little sister is amazing!

It was the first time I met the master, so casual like her, I couldn't find another person.

After eating something, Shi Fuxin saw that the old Duke Xiahou was trapped in the chess game and couldn't get out, so he had a rare kindness, and suggested: "Old man, why don't we start the game again?"

"No, the old man has to break this game."

Old Duke Xiahou refused without even thinking about it, and said: "I don't believe it anymore. It's fine if I can't beat Changqing, but I can't beat you, a little girl."

Hearing this, Shi Fuxin was a little unhappy: "Grandpa, don't discriminate, you say that, it seems that I can't compare with Dongfang Changqing."

The old man Xiahou, who was obsessed with breaking the game, didn't hear these words, but Wang Er who was on the side heard them.

Wang Er looked at Shi Fuxin with great admiration.

Shi Wuye's younger sister

One word, cow!

She actually wanted to compete with Young Master Dongfang!

Old Duke Xiahou's chess addiction also exceeded Shi Fuxin's expectations. In the end, he couldn't break the chess game, so he restarted the chess game, and then pulled Shi Fuxin to play game after game.

Shi Fuxin arrived at Duke Dingguo's mansion in the morning, but when the sun went down, she was still in the waterside pavilion.

Looking at the sunset in the west, Shi Fuxin rested on the stone table with her chin in her hands.

She swears that she never wants to play chess with Duke Xiahou again.

Too tortured!

She came to Duke Dingguo's Mansion to get the entry and exit token of the Ministry of War. Who would have thought that she would be detained here for a whole day.

Just when Shi Fuxin was thinking about leaving, Xiahou Huanyan brought Qiao Xinyu over.

"Grandpa!"

Old Duke Xiahou didn't raise his head: "Don't bother me, I'm about to break the chess game."

Xiahou Huanyan knew about Xiahou's chess addiction, so it wasn't surprising. He just smiled and said, “The martial arts test is over, so grandpa doesn't want to know the result?”

Hearing these words, Shi Fuxin's expression suddenly lifted, and she looked at Xiahou Huanyan without hesitation.

Old Duke Xiahou finally raised his head, glanced at Shi Fuxin who was anxious to know the result, and asked slowly: "How is Shi Goro doing today?"

Xiahou smiled happily and nodded straight: "Very good, the emperor went to watch the martial arts test and praised three people during the period, one of them is Shi Goro. Today's martial arts test, Shi Goro can take the top three."

Old Duke Xiahou's eyes flashed with satisfaction, but he just said 'oh', and said lightly: "Barely passable."

Seeing that Shi Fuxin had a happy face, she said again, "Whether you can get on the list at the end of the martial arts exam depends on the total score. There is still one subject to take, so don't rush to be happy."

Shi Fuxin said directly: "My brother is the best."

Old Duke Xiahou glanced at her: "There are a lot of talents in the capital, and the best ones are the best ones. You must know that there are heavens and people outside the sky and people outside the sky."

Shi Fuxin didn't answer, just nodded, and took the opportunity to say: "Grandpa, my brother has already finished the exam, I have to go back, let's stop here."

Old Duke Xiahou felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of being surrounded by the girl in front of him in various ways. He really wanted to win the round, but seeing that it was getting late, he didn't stop him.

"The old man sees that you have some talent in chess, how about this, when you have nothing to do in the future, I will often come to Dingguo Mansion for a walk, so that the old man can give you advice, maybe I can train you to become a great player."

Shi Fuxin laughed in her heart, a person who can block herself to death even when she is pouring water one after another, actually wants to give her advice?

Xia Hou Huanyan and Qiao Xinyu who were on the side heard this, but quickly glanced at Shi Fuxin several times.

The two of them could tell that Shi Fuxin had caught the eyes of the great-grandpa (grandfather), and they both took the initiative to invite people to the mansion.

"Huanyan, send your sister Fuxin out of the house."

Xiahou Laoguo spoke publicly, and Xiahou Huanyan left the pavilion with Shi Fuxin.

When he was about to leave the water pavilion, Shi Fuxin suddenly stopped: "Sister Huanyan, the old man promised me that I could pick some lotus flowers and take them away."

Xia Houhuan's face showed surprise: "Really?"

Grandfather is stingy. Every year when the lotus is in full bloom, there are many people who want to beg for lotus, but few can get permission from grandpa.

Shi Fuxin nodded: "Really, if you don't believe me, you can ask Wanger."

Xiahou Huanyan smiled and said: "I believe in you." Saying that, he was going to ask the maid beside him to ask the mother-in-law to pick the lotus.

Shi Fuxin hurriedly stopped: "No need to bother, I can pick it myself."

Then, Xiahou Huanyan and Qiao Xinyu saw Shi Fuxin flying into the lotus pond like a dragonfly. The lithe figure tapped the lotus leaves, jumped a few times, and there were many lotus flowers in her hands.

In the pavilion, the old Duke Xiahou also saw the scene of Shi Fuxin picking lotus. Seeing that the lotus leaves stepped on by Shi Fuxin hardly shook at all, and even the water surface did not ripple, he was amazed again and again.

This little girl's lightness kung fu has obviously reached its peak!

Shizheng and this family are really all martial arts geniuses!

Wuchangbo Mansion

After 20 or 30 years of silence, the Shi family did the most correct thing, which was to find out about the wrong child and bring back Shi Zheng and his family.

Here, Shi Fuxin has already landed with more than ten lotus flowers.

"Sister Huanyan, I picked this lotus specially for you."

After giving Xiahou Huanyan a budding lotus, Shi Fuxin gave another fully bloomed lotus to Qiao Xinyu: "This one is yours."

"You little girl, you will be generous to others."

Xia Hou took the lotus flower with a smile, and took the opportunity to pinch Shi Fuxin's chubby cheek, and quickly touched it.

So soft!

Really slippery!

Qiao Xinyu saw it: "." She wanted to cover her face again.

In the morning, Fu Xin ate the tofu from Huanyan's cousin, and now she has eaten it back.

Yes, neither side suffers.

Shi Fuxin brought a basket of lotus flowers back to Bo's residence, at this time, Shi Dingxuan had already returned.

Knowing that the emperor praised him personally, everyone in the Shi family was very happy.

"Sister Xin, where did your lotus come from?"

Mrs. Shi Qi likes lotus the most, and she was the first to discover the lotus brought back by Shi Fuxin.

Shi Fuxin: "Given by the old Duke Xiahou."

As soon as these words came out, the room was silent, even Shi Dingxuan looked over, and looked at his sister suspiciously: "Grandpa gave it?"

Old Duke Xiahou is also a lover of lotus. The lotus in Dingguo's mansion is not easy to give away. How could he give it to his sister?

Shi Fuxin saw that Shi Dingxuan didn't believe in herself, and was unhappy: "Brother, what kind of eyes do you have, your sister is cute, and the old Duke Xiahou likes me, what's wrong with sending me some lotus flowers?"

In order to close the relationship with Duke Dingguo, she sacrificed a lot today.

I wasted a whole day of work, and it's a loss to ask for a few lotus flowers.

Shi's family: "." This is not easy to refute.

Seeing everyone watching, Jin Yuee quickly said, "Sister Xin, please speak up, what's going on?"

Shi Fuxin brushed aside the matter of skipping class, took Qiao Xinyu to Dingguo Mansion, and talked about how she played a few games of chess with the old Duke Xiahou.

When the family members heard this, they all looked at each other.

Old Madam Shi looked at Shi Fuxin, she knew the old Duke Xiahou well, not everyone could catch his eye, and he could let Sister Xin play chess with him, which shows that Sister Xin's chess skills are not bad.

Even though the old Duke Xiahou agreed to give advice to Wulang, but in the past few months, there has been no sign of getting close to the Shi family. As soon as this girl went out, she actually brought back the lotus that the old Duke Xiahou loved.

Is this a signal from the Dingguo government?

After dinner, Shi Fuxin deliberately walked a little later than others.

When the old lady looked at her sixth granddaughter, she asked with a smile, "But there is still something to do."

Shi Fuxin nodded, and told Mrs. Shi what she learned about the draft from Xiahou Huanyan today.

"What? Girls over the age of fifteen must participate?"

Shi Fuxin nodded: "Grandmother, won't my sister also participate?"

The old lady frowned: "It's already August, and your sister's birthday is in October." After a moment of silence, she looked at Shi Fuxin, "Don't worry, even if you run for the election, there is a way to lose early."

Hearing this, Shi Fuxin breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Shi: "By the way, don't spread the word about this. Miss Xiahou said this in front of you, so it shows that she trusts you. You have to be worthy of this trust. Once people break their trust, others will not sincerely make friends with you." of."

Shi Fuxin nodded, seeing that there was nothing else to do, she left Yixiangtang.

After she left, Mrs. Shi entered the inner room, and sighed softly to Mrs. Shi: "Girls who have reached the age of fifteen have to participate in the draft. Zhengkun's wife didn't disclose this at all."

Mrs. Shi was a little silent, and said after a long while: "Zhengkun is finally separated from our family." As he spoke, he patted Mrs. Shi's hand, "Fortunately, Zheng and his family and the mansion are getting closer, so we can't do anything about it." Both."
