Dad, please try harder

Ding Linlang obviously also came to buy chess records.

She is now eager to improve her chess skills in order to equal He Qianquan's chess record.

Perhaps this is the typical thinking of a top academic, working hard quietly, and then striking back in one fell swoop to amaze everyone.

Unlike Qian Quan, although he boasted that he would equal Ding Linlang's basketball one-on-one record, he did not train specifically for this in private, nor did he get up at four in the morning to play.

He also has a strong competitiveness and revenge, but he divides others.

For example, Ding Linlang, he felt that it would be great if he could play chess and ball with her all the time. Winning or losing was not that important. The care he showed and the excuses he made deliberately were just to make this confrontation more interesting.

For example, Sun Shaokang and Song Xi, he will definitely remember the humiliation they gave him in his heart. Before he recovers the situation that day, he will not reconcile or forgive. The relief and letting go shown are just because of him... now

no way.

He walked up to Ding Linlang, patted her shoulder, and spoke to her like a stranger: "Have you seen Qian Quan?"

Ding Linlang turned to look at him and smiled slightly: "Why are you here?"

"I came here with my dad to buy chess records. What are you looking at?"

"I'm also looking at the chess records. Where is uncle?" He said and turned around to look for him.

"I was bargaining with the boss at the front desk. What he was interested in was not the chess records on the bookshelf. He was interested in the chess records handed down from the boss's family."

"Family chess records?" Ding Linlang's eyes lit up.

"Yeah." Qian Quan nodded, picked up a book from the bookshelf, and asked while flipping through it, "Does this thing work?"

"Fortunately, I can learn more about chess and develop some ideas."

"I still like to do whatever I want and show off my skills as I see them."

"So we are all wild people. When we meet those experts who know how to plan, we will lose quickly."

Qian Quan smiled and nodded.

At this time, Qian's father came over with a smile on his face, looked at Ding Linlang and asked: "Linlang, want to buy the chess records?"

"Well, I heard from Qian Quan that you bought the boss's family chess book?"

Father Qian nodded slightly with a smile that did not diminish, and said: "The chess records on this bookshelf are not of much value. They are just superficial routines that can be found online. Come on, go back and I will show you the real chess records."

"

"Okay." Ding Linlang quickly put the chess record in his hand back to its original place.

The three of them left the bookstore and walked towards Qian's house.

On the way back, Qian's father took the opportunity to learn about the layout and momentum of chess with Qian Quan and Ding Linlang.

"Calculating the chess path is the basis for us to play chess. You take one step at a time and each has a purpose. However, if you only focus on the chess path and ponder it without a camera to lay out and build momentum, then you may not be able to calculate dozens or hundreds of moves.

In such a situation, once the opponent stops the opponent's momentum and enters the opponent's position, there is no need to play the chess, and it will be difficult to move even further, and then the defeat will be overwhelming..."

Qian's father is a teacher by nature, so when he talks about his areas of expertise, he talks endlessly and eloquently.

Ding Linlang listened with rapt attention and thought deeply.

Qian Quan frowned and whispered: "It's a bit mysterious."

Father Qian glanced at his son and said, "I haven't talked about chess luck and chess skills yet. That's the real mystery."

Qian Quan thought about it for a moment and said, "But isn't the core of chess about offense and defense? As long as you have both offense and defense, you can win every battle."

Before Qian's father could answer, Ding Linlang continued: "You said nonsense. War is also about offense and defense. Sports competitions are also about offense and defense. The question is how to attack and how to defend."

Father Qian nodded with a smile and added: "In addition, playing chess also requires cultivating one's character. For example, those who are impatient need to slow down, while those who are slow need to be quick. Those who are always simple need to be calculating, and those who usually have the power of the city need to use their weapons.

…

"The so-called 'too strong will lead to failure, too soft will lead to failure', this is the truth in it. Take you two as an example. Linlang's problem is that she is too strong. She leaves no room for chess and fights blindly. Winning or losing is the same. But you..."

"Am I too soft?" Qian Quan said smoothly.

"That's not to say that you are too undisciplined and have a little bit of skill in overcoming strength with softness. Therefore, Linlang's brain is more flexible than yours, but she often can't beat you. That's the reason. As long as she comes to her senses and calms down, you will be able to do it in the future.

It will be difficult to win against her."

Ding Linlang was taught and nodded in agreement.

Qian Quan looked at Ding Linlang and smiled: "You actually nodded and agreed without any psychological barriers."

"I think uncle is right." Ding Linlang's tone was full of matter-of-factness.

"Okay, let's not talk much, let's see the real results on the chessboard."

"Who's afraid of whom?"

When they got home, the two of them started playing chess, while Qian's father sat beside him and watched.

"Ladies first, you go first." Gentleman Qian Quan said.

Ding Linlang didn't refuse, and started with a head start.

Because they were so familiar with each other's chess styles, they both started very fast. After a dozen moves, Qian Quan gradually slowed down, and Ding Linlang's expression began to become solemn.

After walking thirty steps, Qian Quan leaned back slightly and raised his head to glance at Ding Linlang. The latter seemed to have gotten into the chessboard and was so focused that he forgot himself.

Father Qian, who had been silently watching the chess game the whole time, smiled slightly, got up and went to drink tea.

"I lost." Ding Linlang, who had been staring at it for nearly a minute, admitted defeat and started to reposition the chess piece.

Qian Quan also coded the chess pieces without saying a word.

"Linlang, please be more cautious." Qian's father reminded him after finishing his tea.

"Yeah." Ding Linlang nodded.

The two of them left again.

After walking for more than ten steps, Qian Quan suddenly let out an exclamation and took the wrong step.

"Let you regret one step." Ding Linlang's expression was serious.

"No regrets, let's go."

Ding Linlang took advantage and began to attack aggressively.

Qian Quan took a few steps on guard, then saw the opportunity and started cashing in his money.

After a fight, Qian Quan said: "Let's make peace."

Ding Linlang didn't answer.

Qian Quan then exchanged his "car" for Ding Linlang's "horse" and "cannon".

In this way, Ding Linlang is left with only "Che", while Qian Quan still has "Shi Xiangquan".

There is a classic common sense in chess: it is difficult to kill a man with a bicycle and a whole elephant.

This game shakes hands and makes peace.

In the third game, both of them played slowly. Especially in the end game, they thought about each step for a long time.

Ding Linlang frowned, and Qian Quan's left fist was subconsciously clenched.

Even Qian's father who was watching rarely showed a thoughtful expression.

After walking a few more steps, Qian's father smiled and said, "Linlang wins."

Ding Linlang raised his head and asked Qian Quan: "You didn't let me, did you?"

"Don't be so arrogant, we are in a draw now." Qian Quan replied with a rebuke.

Ding Linlang smiled.

Qian's father said at this time: "My hands are a little itchy to watch. Which one of you will play next with me?"

Ding Linlang naturally jumped at this opportunity to challenge the strong.

So she went up and lost two games in a row cleanly.

In the third game, I exchanged money for the right and only lasted about 20 steps.

"Uncle, your moves at the beginning of each game are different. Is there anything special about it?" Ding Linlang asked curiously.

"I'm trying out the new chess game I bought today. I'm not very familiar with it yet, otherwise you'd lose even faster."

Ding Linlang & Qian Quan:......

Qian Quan asked: "So, dad, how did you plan and build momentum when you first played chess with us?"

Qian's father waved his hand and smiled: "I don't need to go to so much trouble to fight with you. Just walk around casually. You only need to pay attention to those when facing opponents of equal or higher level."

Qian Quan: ...As expected, next time my father hides his private money, he will tell his mother.

Ding Linlang smiled and said: "Uncle, I want to see the chess record you bought."

Qian's father showed the chess record to Ding Linlang: "Your aunt will be back from get off work soon. I'm going to cook. Let's eat here at noon."

"Um."

"It's okay for you to read the chess records, but you must remember one thing: the chess path is fatal, and the opponent is alive." Before going to the kitchen, Qian's father gave the two of them a few words.

Ding Linlang and Qian Quan began to study the chess records. They sat side by side, shoulder to shoulder, head to head, and it felt like they were rubbing each other's ears.

After a while, Qian's mother came back from get off work. When she saw this scene, she immediately smiled and said, "Linlang is here?"

Ding Linlang stood up to say hello, and Qian's mother said: "You guys are busy with your business, I'll go to the kitchen to help your uncle."

The meal is served quickly, with the standard four dishes and one soup:

Farm-style stir-fried pork, scrambled eggs with green peppers, sliced ​​lotus root, braised seabass, and pork ribs and corn soup.

Ding Linlang has dined at Qian Quan's house countless times and has long developed the feeling of being at home.

At the dinner table, the four of them were eating and chatting happily.

"Our chess club is going to sign up for a chess competition held in the city. I'm still hesitating whether to participate." Qian's father spent 1,000 yuan to buy the chess records. He must have a legitimate and reasonable foothold.

"Aren't you willing to spend so much money on chess records?" Qian's mother said to her husband.

"Whether I bought it or not, I haven't researched it thoroughly yet. After all, the competitions held in the city have huge prizes and the competition is fierce."

When Qian Quan heard this, he paused with his chopsticks and asked, "How substantial is the bonus?"

"The first place is 100,000, the second is 50,000, and the third is 30,000."

Qian Quan immediately did some calculations in his mind. Even if his father finished third, the system would reward him - 300,000?

"My suggestion is to participate." Qian Quan pondered for a moment and elaborated on his suggestion seriously, "It's not that important whether there is a bonus or not. The main thing is that dad, you can train through the competition and digest your knowledge in the competition.

New chess game."

Ding Linlang stopped her chopsticks by the bowl, tilted her head and looked at Qian Quan, and directly exposed him: "You just want me to earn bonuses."

Qian Quan shot back: "Vulgar! Don't confuse such elegant things with money, okay?"

"Tch, when uncle mentioned the bonus just now, the tips of your chopsticks trembled. Don't think I didn't see it."

"Ah, am I so obvious?" Qian Quan stopped pretending.

The dining table was filled with a warm and cheerful atmosphere.

"Linlang, when you go to college, you can grow your long hair. Think about the way you braided your hair when you were a child, like a little fairy." Qian's mother mentioned Ding Linlang's short hair again.

Ding Linlang smiled: "Auntie, don't worry, I will stay when the time comes."

Qian's father then answered: "You are just talking about college. Let me say one more thing. Shitou and Linlang, when you two enter college, you must not relax in your studies. What's the saying, 'Three years of hard work in high school, four easy years of college'?"

This is absolutely a fallacy and misleading!

"Studying in high school only determines what university you can go to, and studying in university ultimately determines how you can enter society in the future."

Ding Linlang nodded in agreement.

Qian Quan also gave a solemn "hmm" and added: "You have to live and learn. In fact, not only do you have to study in college, but you also have to work in society. You can't give up learning, and you have to work hard to make progress!

"No matter whether you are 30 or 40, you should never give up your ability to learn independently. You must keep up with the times and bravely seize every opportunity to challenge yourself and improve yourself!"

Before he finished speaking, Qian's father, Qian's mother, and Ding Linlang both looked at Qian Quan in surprise.

Especially Qian's father, who was about to enter his forties, was murmuring in his heart: "Is there something in this kid's words?"
