   Chapter 5 Boating

  The green willows swirled on both sides of the river, and a light boat sailed on the Chunhua River, all the way to the south.

   On the deck, Chi Can sat opposite the man in blue, playing chess, while the man in blue was leaning against the railing of the boat, boredly looking at the surging river that was thrown behind him.

  I don’t know how long the boat has been going, but a young man in green clothes was transferred from the cabin, holding a tray with four cups of tea on it.

   He put two cups of tea by the hands of the two players who were playing chess, took another cup of tea to the boat rail, and handed it to the man in Tsing Yi.

  The man in Tsing Yi took a sip of the tea cup and said with a smile, "It's better for Li San, unlike the two of them, who play chess endlessly, often making me hungry."

   It turned out that the boy dressed up was Qiao Zhao.

   She asked softly, uh, it could also be interpreted as a stalker, and finally Chi Can nodded and brought her on, on the condition that she would disguise herself as a man so that she could travel with her.

   At this point, the ship has been traveling for two days.

   "Brother Yang, how long will it take for Jiafeng to arrive?"

   Walking together for two days, Qiao Zhao already knew that the man in blue was called Zhu Wu and the man in blue was called Yang Er. The three were obviously unwilling to tell her their true identities, and she didn't care.

   "We'll be there after noon. But we don't go into the city, we'll just change horses and go to a village to visit the master." Yang Erdao.

   Qiao Zhao's heart moved.

  Three years ago, Chi Can went to Zhuangzi, where his grandfather lived in seclusion, and asked his grandfather to teach him his painting skills.

   Grandfather declined.

  Chi Can didn't give up, and stayed for three days. His grandfather had no choice but to give him a pair of paintings from his early years.

   She was the Chi Can she knew at that time. Of course, the two of them only met twice.

  Chi Can and the others are going to visit the master at a village near Jiafeng. Could it be—

  Thinking of this, Qiao Zhao's breathing was a little short.

   Could it be that Chi Can is going to her house?

   Is there really such a coincidence in this world, or is it because she opened her eyes and became Li Zhao, is it destined?

  Qiao Zhao lowered his head and stared at his hand.

   The little girl's hands were soft and slender, like spring onions, which was different from her beautiful hands with thin calluses on their fingertips.

   Until now, despite the memories of the little girl Li Zhao, she still couldn't think of herself as another person.

   But staring at these hands at the moment, Qiao Zhao was a little dazed.

   How can she stay in her own home as Li Zhao?

  Qiao Zhao turned back and sat down, holding the tea cup and thinking silently.

   In her heart, she thought that this was an unsolvable problem, and she heard the three quarrel in a trance.

   "Xi Xi, Zizhe, when are you going to go down? No dinner?"

  Qiao Zhao looked up, only to find that the cook on board had brought the food, and the aroma penetrated into the person's stomach.

   Zhu Wu pinched Heizi with a helpless expression: "It's not that I don't want to end it, Shi Xi has been thinking about it for a quarter of an hour, and it's been a long time coming."

  Yang Er glanced at the chessboard, shook his head and said, "Xi Xi, you are already in a dead end, hurry up and admit defeat, don't waste everyone's time."

  Chi Can held a crystal white stone between his slender fingers, and said with a displeased expression: "How can I admit defeat? I have never lost a game of chess!"

  Yang Er sneered, and unceremoniously exposed it in front of Qiao Zhao: "Of course you have never lost. You made a single move and it was enough for others to play a game of chess, and in the end, they were so anxious that they would not play with you."

  Chi Can snorted coldly: "What do you know, I'm thinking about it!"

   Yang Er angrily did not go too far.

   What a thoughtful, this is obviously a shameless face!

   Today, the cook is cooking fish stewed in an iron pot, and the aroma is so heart-wrenching, Zhu Wu finally couldn't stand it and raised his hand: "Is it okay to admit defeat, let's eat."

   Chi Can held him down: "Don't bring such a thing, we always speak with strength."

   Zhu Wu and Yang Er held their foreheads together.

  Yang Er whispered: "I really want those big girls and little wives in the capital who are obsessed with you to see your true colors!"

   "Cough cough!" Chi Can coughed heavily and glanced at Qiao Zhao.

   It was really inappropriate to say this in front of the little girl, Yang Er knew that he had made a blunder, and smiled embarrassingly.

   "Watching the chess without saying a word! Zizhe, let's continue playing chess. There must be a way out for the white piece, I just can't remember it for the time being."

   "Looks like I won't be able to eat for a while." Yang Er said to Qiao Zhao.

  Qiao Zhao pressed his abdomen.

  Xu is the little girl, Li Zhao, who is frail. After working so late, her stomach is already aching.

   On the city wall of Yancheng in the north, she has tasted the pain of a sharp arrow piercing her heart. Now, as long as the conditions allow, she does not want to suffer any more pain.

   In her new life, she has to be as good as possible to herself.

   "The game is over, can we eat?"

   "Of course—" Before Yang Er finished his words, he saw Qiao Zhao pick up a white stone from the chess jar and land it on the chessboard.

   He hurried to stop him but didn't stop him. The secret path was bad. Chi Can was usually good-natured, but he had a few taboos, one of which was that he hated others interfering with his chess game.

   Chi Can's face was cold: "Li San, chess pieces are not for playing."

   Zhu Wu, who had been looking at the chessboard, changed his tone: "Xi Xi, look at—"

  Chi Can ignored Zhu Wu's words, squinted at Qiao Zhao, and smiled: "Li San, you messed up my chess, what should I do?"

   "Pick up Xi—"

  Chi Can interrupted Zhu Wu's words: "I know you both want to say good things about this girl, but in my opinion, the little girl is smart, and it's not a problem to hire a carriage to go back to Beijing alone."

  Humph, disturbing him to play chess, being rescued and not conscious of himself, the most important thing is to call him uncle!

   This little girl is so uncute!

   "Xi Xi, I mean... Bai Zi won." Zhu Wu himself felt it was very strange when he spat out these words.

  His Heizi obviously had the advantage and the victory was in his hands, but Li San randomly dropped a piece and turned things around. Instead, he pushed Heizi into a desperate situation, and there was no chance for him to turn around.

   Chi Can was startled and went to look at the chessboard.

  Yang Er leaned over to look, and looked at Qiao Zhao in disbelief.

   "How did you do it?" Chi Can was stunned.

The    girl pursed her lips and whispered softly, "It's probably because you've got it right by accident."

   "I want to listen to people." Chi Can curled his fingers and tapped the chessboard.

Can    be able to beat him thinking about it for so long? What's more, Zhu Yan's level, he knew, there were not many young people in the capital who could outperform.

  Little girl's words are more or less the same as deceiving ghosts.

   "Oh, that's probably my level is higher."

   Chi Can and Zhu Yan looked at each other, suddenly stretched out their hands to shake the chessboard at the same time, and said in unison, "Come on, let's talk about a game."

   "I'm hungry." Qiao Zhao was very sincere.

  After dinner.

   Zhu Yan stared at the chessboard for a long time, threw the chess piece into the chess tank, and sighed: "The skill is not as good as others, I lost."

   He got up and moved away, and changed to Chi Can to sit down.

  The sun was gradually moving westward, and Jiafeng Pier was already faintly visible, and Chi Can was still thinking hard with his chess pieces.

The girl opposite    lowered her eyes and said nothing, waiting quietly.

   "How can she resist not urging Shi Xi, this little girl is not easy when it comes to this energy raising effort alone." Zhu Yan whispered to Yang Er, sighing to himself.

   For the girl who could outsmart Zhu Yan and endure Chi Can, Yang Er was greatly admired, gave Qiao Zhao a deep look, couldn't help but said in a strange tone, "Why do I think she seems to be asleep?"

   The number of words is not enough to make it on the new book list, so I can only rely on recommendation, please recommend votes in your hands.
