Volume 2 Cold Dew Chapter 43 Water Gluten

Xu Zhihai won the first game and was in a very happy mood.
During the meal, he drank two sips of rice wine and started to talk more. "When playing Go, two people should face each other and see each other's expressions. It is not only a competition of chess skills, but also a psychological battle."
Jiang You agreed as he peeled the crab claws, "That's right."
"Playing chess online is so cold across the screen," Xu Zhihai shook his head. "It feels like I'm not playing against a human, but a machine."
"A few days ago, you insisted that I help you get a computer for playing chess." Xu Jiaqi exposed Xu Zhihai's words.
She was wearing a gray-blue sweater, had long hair, and was slightly plump.
Xu Zhihai laughed twice. "The Internet has its advantages. You can get in touch with different chess styles." He changed the subject and said, "Xiao Jiang, you haven't played much chess recently, right? I think your chess skills have declined."
"Yes, I've been busy taking care of the kids lately." He peeled two shrimps and ate them, then picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. "I'm still working on the yard. I hired a designer to draw up the plans. When it's done, please come over and take a look. When the sun is good, it must be very comfortable to bask in the sun and play chess on the terrace."
Zhang Qiu brought out the soup and placed it on the table .
"Try this chicken soup. It contains meat stuffed with gluten in water. The person who made this is my old neighbor. Several restaurants in Tangjiang City have specially ordered it from him. It is very difficult to buy it in bulk."
Zhao Lijun, Liu Jun and Jiang You each scooped a bowl of soup.
Jiang You first took a sip of the soup, then tasted a piece of water gluten, and then ate another piece.
"I didn't see your child the last time I went to your place." Xu Zhihai saw Jiang You eating happily, so he also scooped a bowl of soup. "I heard from others that he loves your child very much."
"Last time?" Jiang You thought for a moment, "He was playing games upstairs."
"You don't want to teach him how to play chess?"
"I taught him to play Gobang. He likes that colorful game." Jiang You looked up at Zhao Lijun. "What about your grandson? How is his Go learning going?"
"I found a professional player online and gave him some guidance. Each game costs 500 yuan. I think I can try to get promoted to a professional player in two years."
"Are you ready to become a professional chess player?"
"That's not the case," Zhao Lijun said, picking up a piece of water spinach with his chopsticks. "My son has some ideas, but my daughter-in-law disagrees. She thinks Go has no future."
"The world's number one player was defeated by AI," Xu Jiaqi interrupted, "No one will learn Go anymore, right?"
"Computers have long defeated chess," Jiang You said, picking up a piece of fish. "Bicycles, cars, trains, and people can't run faster than them. Are all runners out of a job? In the past, people thought Go was too mysterious. Now it seems that the computing power is not enough ."
As he spoke, he scooped another bowl of gluten soup.
"You like this soup," Xu Zhihai noticed his movements, "I have two packets at home, take one back."
"I won't be able to do it even if you take it back."
"So what are you going to do with your meal now, or should we order takeout?"
"yes."
"It's not good for children to always eat takeout. They won't get enough nutrition."
Zhao Lijun suggested, "Find an auntie to come over every noon to cook a few dishes and help you with the cleaning."
Jiang You finished his soup and nodded, "That's a good idea."
Zhang Qiu asked: "Shall I serve you a bowl of rice?"
"I can do it myself..."
"I'm here, I'm here, you're the guests."
Zhang Qiu walked quickly into the kitchen, and soon she brought out six bowls of rice.
Jiang You scooped some soup and mixed it with the rice. He then peeled a few shrimps, separated the crab meat and soaked it in the bowl, then slurped it up.
"You should have brought your child over for dinner."
"He is introverted and shy."
The doorbell rang.
Xu Jiaqi put down his chopsticks, and Zhang Qiu stood up first, walked to the intercom, confirmed his identity, and pressed the unlock button.
Then she opened the door.
After a while, the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs was heard.
A man in a dark blue jacket came in carrying a bag of fruit.
He was Zhang Lin, a student of Xu Zhihai.
"Teacher Xu, Aunt Zhang, Jiajia..."
"They are all Lao Xu's chess friends." Zhang Qiu took the fruit and introduced the identities of the others to him.
After the greetings, Zhang Qiu asked him, "Have you eaten yet?"
"have eaten."
"Then sit on the sofa for a while."
Shortly after Zhang Lin sat down, Xu Jiaqi walked out of the dining room and sat down next to him.
Zhao Lijun and Liu Jun glanced at the sofa from time to time.
Zhao Lijun lowered his voice and said, "They look quite compatible."
Xu Zhihai didn't respond. He asked Jiang You, "Are you full? Shall we continue?"
Jiang Youzheng put the last piece of ribs into his mouth. While chewing, he said, "It's almost done."
Zhang Qiu smiled and asked, "Do you want me to serve you another bowl of rice?"
"No, no, I'm full," he emphasized, looking into Zhang Qiu's eyes, "I'm really full, I'm stuffed."
"Let's go." Xu Zhihai stood up.
Xu Zhihai, Jiang You and the other two returned to the study room. After closing the door, Zhao Zhijun said, "Your daughter likes it, why are you pulling your face so long?"
In this round, Jiang You plays black.
He placed the chess piece in the upper right corner star position.
"At that time, the department had a few places for studying abroad. Ten years ago, studying abroad was different from now. He was not on the list. I don't know how he managed it, but he ended up going abroad."
Liu Jun was a little curious, "Didn't you say before that he was from Xinlong countryside? What power could he have?"
"That's why I found it strange. The girl he replaced wasn't in my class, and I didn't ask around."
Liu Jun said: "It's okay to have means. Jiajia is too naive and has always been in school."
"Have you told your wife?" Zhao Lijun asked.
"She said that she thought I was overthinking it. She was worried about what would happen to Jiajia after we were gone..."
Jiang You's black chess piece breaks into the white formation.
Xu Zhihai's expression became serious.
They stopped chatting.
In the afternoon chess game, Jiang You won two games in a row.
Xu Zhihai said he wanted to take a rest. After walking out of the study, they saw that the dining table had been cleaned and there were fruit plates and snacks on it.
Xu Jiaqi and Zhang Lin left.
