Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 634 Chess pieces

   Guan Xin looked at him, "Why, you told me not to marry a wife?"

   "Don't don't don't," the colleagues were afraid that he would not marry him. Will they still be able to walk out of Qili Village alive by then?

   Didn’t see how many villagers were on the road to watch the excitement?

  The same robe lowered his voice and said: "You just pretend that what I said just now was just farting, let's go quickly, don't miss the auspicious time."

  Tuesday Lang ran to the relatives and friends carrying the dowry, found out several small baskets with some sweets in them, gave the baskets to the younger brothers, and then the five of them distributed them along the way to the villagers and children watching the excitement.

  The children went crazy. They sang nursery rhymes and ran behind them, sending them two miles away. They didn't stop until Lang and the others had divided the wedding candy on Tuesday.

  Man Bao failed to join the fun, very sorry.

  White Erlang ran away with Santou a long time ago, and he chased the family sending off two miles away and then walked back with a bag of wedding candy.

Bai Shan did not join in the excitement, and returned to her room with Man Bao to sit and talk, "Grandma knew that I was learning chess, so I was asked to make a chess board for me, using the best Zimu, but the chess pieces wanted me. Change it yourself, will you help me?"

   "Okay." Man Bao thought that in the future, Baishan would definitely not play chess with Bai Erlang, so she would use it with him, so he was naturally willing to make a contribution.

   just sent away the eldest sister, Man Bao was very sad, and the family was busy, no one was playing with her, Man Bao went to the Bai's house with her.

  Bai Shan led her to her yard and said, “The chessboard is still sitting, so I just took a look. Let’s choose the stones.”

  There are two baskets in Baishan’s yard. Everyone is busy, trimming flowers and trees, or sorting things.

  Bai Shan tossed down a basket, poured out a basket of black stones, and said: "This is what my grandmother bought from the county town these two days."

  The other basket is filled with gray stones, a basket full of different shapes and sizes.

  Bai Shan pushed it down and poured out the stones inside. He introduced: "We have to select suitable stones from among them to polish them into stones."

  Man Bao closed his mouth and asked, "Is there no ready-made ones in the bookstore?"

   "Yes, but there are, but the quality is usually not good and expensive." He said: "Grandma said, if you want to learn chess, it is best to raise your own chess pieces. Such chess pieces are smooth, and the placement of the pieces is like a rhythm, which is very pleasant."

  He regretted: "My father used to have a chess set, but unfortunately the house servant lost a lot of things when he went to collect the relics, and the chess board was gone."

  Otherwise, he can directly use his father's chess.

  Man Bao followed with regret, looked at the scattered stones, and sighed: "The amount of work is huge."

  Bai Shan nodded, "Yeah, come on, let's pick the pieces."

   "My grandmother said that these stones are good materials for making chess pieces. Don't look at them in a mess, weird shape, and the price is not cheap."

   "Then your family still buys so much?"

   "No way, this kind of stone is sold in baskets."

  Man Bao was very curious, "What if you can’t pick a chess piece out of a basket of stones?"

   "That only shows that you are out of luck and can only buy another basket."

  Man Bao: ...Suddenly I feel that selling stones is also a very profitable business, what should I do?

  But she looked at the stone in her hand and found that she didn't seem to have seen such a stone in the village, no, she had never seen it at all, so she shattered the idea and threw it behind her head.

  Man Bao looked at the gray-white chess pieces, then looked at the black chess pieces, and decisively chose to pick the black pieces.

  To choose the round, round, and moderate-sized chess pieces, you have to choose some more. Later, Liu will ask a craftsman to help them cut them, and then simply polish them.

   But for more detailed polishing, they need to do the stone washing themselves.

  Because chess pieces cannot be made in one day or two days, there are three hundred and sixty-one chess pieces, and each one must be polished and washed by the craftsman. How long will it take?

  The craftsmen have time, but Manbao and the others have no time.

  And the most important thing in learning Go is patience, which is the same as practicing calligraphy, and even more patient than practicing calligraphy.

  Bai Shan didn’t know how other people asked for it, but they had always polished and washed their chess pieces by themselves. It is said that the pieces and chessboards of his great-grandfather and grandfather are still in the warehouse.

  Unfortunately he couldn't see it, and his grandmother wouldn't use it for him, so he could only polish his own chess pieces.

  At first, the two of them squatted on the ground with their heads low, picking up stones, but in the end they simply sat on the ground, choosing and talking while choosing, which was not boring.

  Bai Shan touched a very special stone, and smiled and asked Man Bao: "Do you think this looks like a tortoise?"

  Man Bao looked up and nodded again and again and said: "Like, it's like a mouth if it's tilted a little bit more here."

  Bai Shan put it aside and said, “Let the craftsman help us to grind it back.”

  Man Bao came up with an idea, "You can put a pen wash on the desk and put it inside. It will look good."

  Bai Shan feels reasonable.

  When Zheng came over with the tray, she saw the two talking lively. She glanced at the sun that was about to set in the sky, and quickly handed the tray to the girl, and stepped forward and said: "Are you sitting here picking stones this afternoon?"

  Bai Shanbao raised his head, only then felt a little sore in his neck, "Mother, why are you here?"

"Let's see if you are naughty again. Why are you sitting under the tree and picking it up on such a hot day?" Turned around and scolded the people, "The master is not in these three months, even if you are more unruly, you don't know how to put the stones. Move to the house to pick it up?"

  Bai Shan hurriedly said: "Mother, I didn't allow it. This stone is dirty, so I don't want to move into the house."

   "Then just spread a blanket on the ground. Is your body important or the floor important?"

  Man Bao said: "Aunt Zheng, we are about to choose, anyway, the sun is about to go down now, it's not hot at all."

Zheng squatted down and took the veil and wiped the sweat on her forehead: "I said it's not hot. There is sweat on this forehead. It's so easy for you to whiten it. What if you get tanned again? manage?"

  I want to say what Zheng is most satisfied with that his son went to Yizhou City to study, that is, he turned white after going out. It should be said that all three children turned white.

  In Qili Village, as long as they study, even if they are conscious, they can’t help but go out and play every day, go to the fields, in the yard, and run around under the big sun.

  So even if they are three layers whiter than the children in the same village, they are still black.

  It can be in Yizhou City for three months. Most of the three of them are studying in the house. There are few moments when they can go out to play wildly under the sun. After raising them like this, the three of them turn white.

Especially Man Bao, with a face like Yingyu, Zheng looked so fond of it, and couldn't help but pinch it, "This meat is whirring, white and tender. If it is tanned, Aunt Zheng will feel much pain. what."

  Bai Shan: …Mother, your son is opposite.

Good night
