Mr. Cao gave Mr. Gu a rolling look, but he didn't disagree with his words, "Besides, it's rare that Lao Gu invites me once, just to make him bleed profusely."
"Don't be polite to him."
"You can charge as much as you should."
"I'm not paying."
Mr. Cao's words made Mr. Gu roll his eyes many times.
There was a hint of smile in Mother Xiao's eyes, "Please let Mr. Gu treat you again next time."
"No matter what I say this time, I gave you a bad experience in the store."
"terribly sorry."
"All right."
Mr. Cao said nothing more.
He used to make jokes too.
It's always a good thing to be cheap.
Xiao's mother's behavior made him have a good impression of this teahouse.
Not only do we not shirk responsibility.
He also took the initiative to take responsibility.
good.
...
"Old Valley."
"This treat doesn't count."
Mr. Cao turned to look at Mr. Gu.
"knew."
Gu Lao curled his lips, but he deserved to be happy, "Shall we come back for tea tomorrow?"
"good."
Mr. Cao nodded.
Tomorrow is Sunday.
He has plenty of time.
He was satisfied with everything here, whether it was tea, snacks or service attitude.
It is indeed a place recommended by Lao Gu.
Although he usually likes to go against Lao Gu, he still believes in Lao Gu in his heart.
…
"hey-hey."
Mr. Gu grinned, "Then Xiaoxiao mom, let's come back tomorrow."
"OK."
Mother Xiao smiled, "Welcome to your next visit."
"Xiaoxiao, let's go."
Mr. Gu waved his hand to Xiao Xiao.
"Grandpa Gu, Grandpa Cao, goodbye."
"goodbye."
The two old men walked out of the teahouse slowly, holding hands behind their backs.
…
"Xiaoxiao."
Even though it was still early, the sky was bright and clear.
There is no cool mist in the morning.
The sun shining on my body made me feel a little bit hot.
Of course, Xiao Xiao didn't feel this way.
He is playing chess with the frog god.
Above the head, the white plum branches are intertwined and the petals are layered, casting a mottled shadow.
The outline of plum blossoms is faintly reflected on the chessboard.
Hearing the sound, he smiled apologetically at the Frog God, signaled for a pause in the chess game, and then turned to look, "Grandma?"
"Are you playing chess?"
The old lady who came over looked at the chessboard.
She can also play chess.
But the level is limited.
The old man always disliked her bad behavior.
Later, he had a son, and he trained his son to follow him.
Later, I had a grandson.
The grandson will follow him.
There are also many chess friends of the old man among the tea guests.
Now there is a very skilled chess player in the yard...the Frog God?
The old lady frowned slightly.
That seems to be the name?
She had not had much contact with him.
It's not like the old man has played many games of chess with others.
Even if the old man never saw the frog god from beginning to end.
I have become somewhat familiar with the Frog God.
However, she has a good impression of the Frog God.
Because it beat the old man on the chessboard.
Let the old man always brag about his chess skills and look down on her level.
Finally, he hit an iron plate.
When the old lady saw the old man lose for the first time and his disbelieving expression, she laughed for a long time.
"We've only reached the middle of the game..."
The old lady frowned slightly.
…
"Grandma, do you want to see me if you have something to do?"
Xiao Xiao saw that the old man was hesitant, so he asked.
"not me."
The old lady shook her head, "It's your Grandpa Gu who's here."
"Ask us if you are here?"
"Said I wanted to chat with you."
…
Xiao Xiao understood, "Grandpa Gu is here."
I told them yesterday that I would come today.
"Then I'll go see him."
"Then your chess..."
The old lady looked across from the chessboard and was not surprised to see an empty stone bench.
"It's only half done."
Just leaving like this...isn't it good?
But it's not good to make guests wait.
The old lady was a little confused.
...
"Grandma, how about you finish the game?"
Xiao Xiao smiled and made a suggestion, "Didn't you say you wanted to have a game with the Frog God?"
The old lady was stunned and said, "Shall I do it?"
Did she say that?
The old lady frowned and thought for a while.
It seems like... I said that?
Because I am somewhat curious about what kind of chess skills can defeat the old man?
I'm also a little curious...what does it feel like to play chess with such a special opponent?
But I never found the right opportunity.
this time……
"grandmother."
Seeing the old man's move, Xiao Xiao stood up and pushed the old lady to sit on the stone bench.
"Just treat it as a normal game of chess."
"You have also seen what grandpa did, right?"
"Don't feel uncomfortable."
"Can……"
The old lady still had some concerns, "In the store..."
"I'll help."
"you do not need to worry."
Xiao Xiao looked at the Frog God and said, "Let grandma play the next chess game."
"May I?"
"Quack~"
The frog god nodded.
It doesn't mind.
In fact, it doesn't matter if Lord Xiao Xiao leaves halfway.
It knew that someone was looking for Mr. Xiao Xiao.
But Mr. Xiao Xiao’s family is very good.
Also consider how it feels.
This way it will not affect Mr. Xiao Xiao's meeting with the guests, and it can continue to play the game of chess. It feels good.
…
"The little frogs all agreed."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Grandma, don't hesitate."
"Little frog?"
The old lady blinked.
"Oh, it's my nickname for Frog God."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth turned up slightly.
"Because the frog god is small."
"I called him little frog."
"oh oh."
The old lady nodded to show that she understood.
But, little frog...
It’s really a title that makes people feel more familiar than Frog God.
There was a hint of smile on the old lady's face.
"Then go ahead, Xiaoxiao."
The old lady waved her hand as if "driving away".
"I'll finish this game of chess with the Frog God here."
"OK."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
...
Walking into the lobby, Xiao Xiao quickly saw Grandpa Gu.
However, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
Judging from the looks on the faces of the two old men, it seemed like something had happened?
Xiao's mother also stood aside, with a wry smile on her face, but there was some confusion in her eyebrows.
...
"mom."
"Grandpa Gu, Grandpa Cao."
Xiao Xiao walked to several people and called them one by one with a smile.
Then asked, "What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
...
"ha-"
When he laughed the first time, he realized that his voice was too loud and immediately shut up.
When he spoke again, the old man deliberately lowered his voice, still smiling clearly in his tone, "Your Grandpa Cao almost fell down again just now."
ah?
Xiao Xiao was surprised.
Almost fell again?
Seeing the meaning on Xiao Xiao's face, Mr. Gu nodded, "No."
"I almost fell again."
"If I hadn't reacted in time, I would have really fallen."
"Old Cao, you have to thank me."
Gu Lao looked proud.
Mr. Cao rolled his eyes angrily, "Yes, thank you."
"If you didn't laugh at me unnecessarily later, I think I would be more grateful to you."
