Chapter 252 Bingzhou City
Pomegranate basked in the sun for half an hour and then went back to the room. After lunch, he took a nap and played chess with Fudong to pass the time in the afternoon.
Naturally, the game is not Go, which Pomegranate does not know, nor Fudong. It is not chess, but Pomegranate has drawn the drawings. The jumping flag has just been made by the carpentry workshop, and will soon be sold in Tongwanzhai. of.
Of course Fu Dong doesn’t know how to do it. Pomegranate took the time to teach her twice, and she understood it. Checkers is just a pastime, so it’s not difficult.
It can be played by two people or up to six people. Each person can take one step. Each step can only go to the adjacent empty space. But if there are chess pieces in the middle, you can jump over them. If there are chess pieces in a row when you land on the ground, it will be fine. Jump continuously. When all your pieces enter the opposite position, you win.
Pomegranate played this without any pressure and easily defeated Fudong several times in a row, making Fudong wonder if his head was made of tofu.
Pomegranate couldn't help laughing. She looked out the window and saw Hu Zhen and the others guarding her. She couldn't help but call Hu Zhen to come and confront her.
Hu Zhengang had been watching outside and understood how to play. He lost two hands at first, then found the feeling later, and then won the pomegranate.
This gave Shiliu a fighting spirit. The two of them devoted themselves seriously, and the few bystanders in Fudong were also serious. They didn't even notice anyone approaching.
After finishing another sentence, Pomegranate finally won Hu Zhen back. She stopped her hand and looked up to see the boy with the duck voice leaning against the window.
Seeing her, Xie Pangang's eyes lit up and he said: "What kind of chess is this? It looks very interesting to me!"
Pomegranate's eyes moved, "This is called checkers, it's just a pastime to kill time while traveling. It’s really interesting.” He introduced the gameplay.
“Chess?” Xie Fang thought that this name was very appropriate. It can be played by two or more people. Isn’t it very interesting to play at gatherings?
“Where did you buy this chess piece? Is it Tongwanzhai? But why haven’t I seen Tongwanzhai selling this?”
He is also a frequent visitor to Tongwanzhai in Zhoucheng. , he has a whole set of toy sets at home, including Tongwanzhai’s new jigsaw puzzle at the end of last year. He has played with both the simple and hardcover versions. He can make them at will without drawings. Various graphics come.
He likes to play with these things, so he left a message in Tongwanzhai to notify him of new toys as soon as possible.
So, he was sure that Tongwanzhai didn’t have this.
Pomegranate smiled and said: "It's the new toys that are about to be released in Tongwanzhai."
Xie Fang raised his eyebrows. New toys are about to be released, that is, they are not yet available for sale, but this girl can Play in advance, so this girl is from the Liu family?
He looked away from the checkers eagerly, and it was difficult to ask the girl to give up her love and lend it to him to play with first.
But without thinking, he heard the other party say: "I have already played this set, but there is only one set like this. If you don't mind it, I will give it to you to pass the time!"
Xie Fang was overjoyed when he heard this. , he couldn't help but want to play for a long time, and he hurriedly thanked him, "I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it."
Shi Hearing his duck voice, Liu also laughed silently, "This is just a trial version. The new one released by Tongwanzhai will be more refined." I can buy all kinds of toys. If you collect one set and play with the other, I will be indispensable!”
Just know how to buy it.
Pomegranate nodded slightly and stopped answering.
Xie Ping was so happy that he went back to play with his cousin with the checkers in his arms. He was so itchy that he couldn't wait.
Having already experienced one night on the boat, Pomegranate slept more soundly tonight. She slept until dawn, got up, had breakfast, and stretched her hands and feet.
After noon, we could vaguely see the magnificent city. When we asked the boat owner, sure enough, we were about to arrive at the city.
Boarding from Luoshui City, the trip of three days and two nights is finally coming to an end.
As the ship docked at the pier, the bustling Zhoucheng Pier came into view.
Wow. Pomegranate heard Fudong's exclamation next to her, and also vaguely heard her own.
It really deserves to be the capital of the province. This pier is very lively.
After getting off the boat, Shiliu asked Zuo Cheng to rent a car first. The Baihui Pier was still a few miles away from Zhoucheng Gate, so it was more convenient to take a car.
She stood on the side of the pier, admiring the excitement of the pier.
There were guests getting off the boat behind him, and there were also guests getting off the carriage. Those who brought the carriage with them were all wealthy people.
Pomegranate glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.
I don’t want to, but when the people on the carriage saw her standing here, they stopped and said, "Why are you standing here, girl? Waiting for someone to pick you up? It’s getting late. It’ll be late." It’s late and the city gate will be closed. Why don’t we give up a carriage for the girl to ride on?”
Pomegranate politely declined, “No need to bother, the carriage will be here soon”
Seeing her polite refusal, Xie Pingping didn't say much. He nodded to Shiliu and said, "In that case, let's take the first step."
The carriage drove away slowly, and Yan Qun looked back, tut-tutting: " This girl, just standing in the crowd, can be seen at a glance.”
Xie Pingfang joked: "If you are a direct descendant of the Liu family, your status is not too low. My cousin really likes it, so I can ask my aunt to make it happen. It's not impossible!"
Yan Qun shook his head, "Getting married? I don't want to dig a hole for myself."
How can you feel free after you have a family but not before?
He is a romantic and talented man, but he is not romantic enough.
What a beauty, it’s a feast for the eyes to watch.
Xie Fangfang was still young and had never thought about this. Hearing his cousin’s secretive manner about the couple’s marriage, he shook his head and laughed, “My aunt just decided to arrange the marriage for you directly. You hide. I passed the first grade of junior high school and still Can you escape being fifteen?"
"Just gloat!" Yan Qun glared at him, "Sooner or later you will have such a day."
Xie Fang said: "I'm not afraid of getting married. .”
"Humph!" Yan Qun could only stare.
Afraid of making his cousin angry, Xie Fang quickly put his arm around his shoulders and said: "Let's not talk about this. When we enter the city, we will call Liang Er and the others to come out. Let's play checkers with a few more people. It's definitely more fun to play! Be prepared to kill them till they scream tonight!"
—
Zuo Cheng rented a decent carriage. Shiliu and Fudong got on the carriage, and the group went there. Go straight to the gate of Zhoucheng.
This was not the first time Shiliu rode in a carriage. It was more comfortable to ride in a carriage. She thought that now that she was in Zhoucheng, she might as well try her luck to see if she could buy one. Horses, it would be better to buy a carriage.
For several miles, the carriage moved slowly. Before the city gate was locked, Shiliu and his party were able to enter the city gate.
After entering the city, the bustling and bustling city was even more dazzling. Shiliu didn’t know where to go, so she asked Hu Zhen to lead the way and find a quieter inn to settle down first.
Hu Zhenzai often came to Zhoucheng with his previous master's family. Although the master's family has a house here and does not need to stay in an inn, he still knows which inn is good.
I immediately caught the carriage and arrived at a Ruyi Inn.
I asked for two rooms next to each other, and Shiliu didn’t plan to go out for a walk tonight. I had a good rest after dinner, and it wouldn’t be too late to go out for a walk tomorrow.
