"Afei, you are so awesome. My second uncle never lets guests stay at home."
Hua Ziqian glared at Hu Fei, picked up the wine bottle and filled it up for Hu Fei, "I haven't lived here many times. Every time he thinks I'm noisy, you have to behave well and don't embarrass me.
"
Why is it embarrassing? Isn't it just a game of chess? Hu Fei was a little dumbfounded. He raised the wine glass and said, "Okay, I won't make do with your wedding tomorrow. I'll give you my blessing in advance tonight."
"A wedding or not is just like that."
Hua Ziqian raised his glass and clinked it with Hu Fei, then raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp. "By the way, when I play chess with my second uncle later, you have to be careful. I always feel that he won't just play chess with you."
, there must be something else to say.”
"You kid, you've made your second uncle look like a scourge."
Although he agreed with Hua Ziqian's words in his heart, Hu Fei looked indifferent, but he was still very grateful to Hua Ziqian in his heart. At this time, Hua Ziqian's reminder was undoubtedly for his own good.
Because Mr. Hua was waiting to play chess in the study, Hu Fei and the others did not dare to drink more. They quickly ended the meal and came to the study.
Mr. Hua was writing at the desk. When Hu Fei and the others came in, they had almost finished writing. He put the brush on the inkstone and turned to the side. The nanny had already brought a basin of hot water.
"Xiao Hu, what do you think of these words?"
Hu Fei walked over and took a look. There was a set of calligraphy on the desk. On the fine rice paper, there were big characters pointing to the four dragons and phoenixes in the country, with iron paintings and silver hooks, and strong penmanship.
"Good words, good words."
Hu Fei subconsciously exclaimed, "I'm afraid that all the calligraphers in the world are no better than this. Just give this calligraphy to me by Uncle Hua."
"Okay, that's it."
Mr. Hua laughed and said, "When I was young, I liked to write a few strokes when I had nothing to do. Later, after my right hand became useless, I switched to writing with my left hand. Unexpectedly, the words I wrote were not ugly at all. If you like it, you can take it away after a while.
, it was originally written for you."
It was originally written for you. This sentence seemed plain, but it made Hu Fei's heart move. There is something in the words of Mr. Hua. To be fair, Hu Fei has seen the calligraphy of many famous people in the study. In the study of Mr. Lejia,
There are quite a few of them. Although Hua Erye's calligraphy is very good, it is not better than those other calligraphy masters.
Guiding the country, these four words are very meaningful.
"Come, come, let's play chess."
Hua Ziqian had already walked to the coffee table and took out a chessboard and a pair of light yellow jade chess pieces, "Afei, this is my gift to my second uncle. How about a chess piece carved from ivory? Isn't it beautiful?"
"Well, it is indeed beautiful."
Hu Fei walked over and picked up a chess piece with his fingers. It was heavy, but he didn't feel cold. It was indeed a good thing, and what Hua Ziqian got was naturally not a fake. Such a chess piece would probably be worth a lot of money.
"What's the use of being pretty? You're just a stinky chess piece. Why don't you show me your Kung Fu tea to Xiao Hu?"
Second Master Hua laughed, walked over and sat down opposite Hu Fei, "This kid is not good at playing chess, but he is good at making tea. When I was a child, my elder brother forced me to learn this and that, but in the end I couldn't do anything except eating, drinking and having fun."
"Hey, second uncle, don't say that to me. I'm just trying to fight against my old man. If I really want to learn something, why can't I learn it?"
Hua Ziqian snorted, got up and walked out, "Afei, give me some credit and win over my second uncle who won't be able to sleep tonight. I'll prepare Kung Fu tea for you."
"Uncle Hua, Ziqian is a smart man, so he's not as bad as you say."
Hu Fei chuckled and said, "You go first with the red hand."
In chess, red goes first. Generally speaking, the elder will go first with red against the younger.
"Okay, then I'll go first."
Mr. Hua chuckled, raised his hand to push a soldier forward, and then glanced at Hu Fei with a smile, "I heard from Ziqian that you are working in Jiangnan Province. What level are you at now?"
"He serves as the district chief of a district in Yongzhou City, Jiangnan Province, at the division level."
Hu Fei raised his hand to put a bishop on top, and at the same time he vaguely understood Hua Erye's chess strategy. He is a man who is good at attacking. Attack is the best defense. This is a truth that anyone who has served in the military understands.
"It's not bad to be at the senior level at the age of less than 30 years old. What's even more rare is that you have reached this position step by step on your own."
Second Master Hua made another move and said, "There are people in Beijing who are under thirty and at the deputy department level, but if we really want those people to stand alone, they will never be able to do it."
"I'm just lucky, I just caught some ducks on the shelves."
Hu Fei chuckled and made a move, "You can't praise me. If you praise me again, I'll be proud."
"Young people should show their sharpness and lead the country."
Mr. Hua laughed loudly, raised his hand and made another move, "You clearly have a strategy, but you act like an old man and are too trembling to let it go. That's what a man does."
"Uncle Hua, I'm just brave and have no other abilities."
Hu Fei chuckled, "You also know that I am a soldier and am used to a vigorous and resolute work style. I just do whatever comes to my mind. Grinding and grinding is not my style."
"You have a bad temper with me. If you had been born a few decades earlier, we would definitely have become good friends!"
"Now we can also be friends."
Hu Fei chuckled, "Although our age difference is a bit big, it's okay to be friends forever."
"Very good, very good. I have an old friend whom I have never known since childhood. I am committed to you as my little friend."
Mr. Hua laughed heartily, raised his hand and made another move. The smile on his face immediately faded slightly, "However, there is a friendship between friends to help people solve difficulties. There is something I can't think about right now."
Hu Fei also followed a move and was stunned when he heard the words. Just as he was about to speak, the door was pushed open and Hua Ziqian walked in holding a tea tray. A strong fragrance of tea floated in the air, "A Fei, what are you talking about?"
Are you so happy?"
"It's nothing, I just became Hu Fei's friend."
Mr. Hua chuckled and made another move, "Afei, you have to be careful."
"Uncle Hua, aren't you the one who is going to bury the poor horse?"
Hu Fei chuckled and waved back.
"Afei, this is what's wrong with you. You just said that we have been friends for many years, so how can you call me uncle."
Mr. Hua picked up a small tea cup and drank it all, "Either call me by my name, or call me Laohua, you can choose for yourself."
Hua Ziqian was dumbfounded and looked at Hu Fei in astonishment. This boy is so charming, and he has become a close friend with his second uncle?
