The ups and downs of the urban jungle

Sun Jian searched a lot of chess records and various endgames from the Internet, studying them while eating and sleeping. Ding Pei was not so attentive. Although she does not have to go to work, her daily schedule is still very regular. She has applied for an annual card for beauty and fitness, and the agreed time is relatively fixed and regular like going to work. She takes Mengmeng to and from kindergarten regardless of rain or shine. In the remaining free time, I used to spend most of my time at home reading books, practicing the piano, and doing yoga. Then I go to my parents’ house to spend time with the elderly. Most of the time I study recipes with my parents and make a few exquisite snacks and dishes. But in the past few days, as soon as she arrived at her parents' house, she went directly to Sun Jian to learn chess. After all, she was a novice. Although she learned quickly, her level was still far behind Sun Jian's. Besides, she doesn't have the motivation to study as much as Sun Jian does, so the two of them can play together now are some more interesting endgames.

The three days agreed with the old man soon arrived. Sun Jian and the old man are both athletes, while Ding Pei and his mother are naturally the spectators and referees. On this day, my mother specially bought some food and wine. No matter who wins or loses, there must be a sense of ceremony.

The old man dressed up very energetically today and looked confident. After setting up the chessboard, Ding Pei immediately made tea for the old man and sided with him without hesitation. Ding Pei's mother unabashedly favored Sun Jian:" Xiao Jian! They are planning to team up to deal with you, so don't worry about your kindness today. If you don't show some real skills, you won't be able to hold your head high at home in the future."

Sun Jian really didn't expect that the key point Ding Pei turned out to be a traitor at that time, so the chess records and endgames the two of them practiced together these past few days were originally secret weapons, but now they have completely lost their power. Sun Jian was really at a loss for words at this moment.

The battle began, and the old man took the initiative without hesitation. The chess records Sun Jian has been reading these past few days are not in vain. If you can't get out of the chariot while walking, you will lose even if you win. After the opening layout was laid out, the old man couldn't help but glance at Sun Jian:"Haha! It seems that a lot of effort has been put into it in the past few days. Every move has a path.""Dad must have read a lot of chess records, right?"Of course, there are few opportunities to combine theory and practice. Every day I see those roadside stalls eager to fight over a game of chess, and I can’t help but feel anxious."

While the two were talking, the chess game reached the midfield. At this time, the many chess records were of little use. They were killing indiscriminately based on their feelings. Unconsciously, there were not many chess pieces left on the board. This is Sun Jian's strength. When Sun Jian looks at the situation, if both sides are masters, it will be a draw. But if one party makes a wrong move, the opponent will take advantage of it and make a fatal move. The key is In this endgame, Sun Jian and Ding Pei have practiced together many times. Sun Jian had no choice but to show his cards directly:"Dad! This game is settled""Do you want a draw? Then I won't agree. I still have the rook, and you only have two pawns left. The rest are useless.""That's hard to say. The pawns are used as vehicles when crossing the river."At this time, Ding Pei also advised his father:"Dad! This game of chess really ended in a draw. Ding Pei's father turned around and glared at Ding Pei:"You can't even understand what you are talking about."" Before Ding Pei's father finished speaking, he directly picked up his rook and played the general. But this was exactly the part that made the mistake. Ding Pei shouted loudly and grabbed the chess pieces directly from the chessboard:"Dad! You can't go like this, you'll lose if you go like this""Go! Go! Go! Don't cause trouble here. I put down my son and left like this. What could he do to me with just two little pawns?"Ding Pei didn't want to let go, but the old man dodged the chess piece without any politeness and put it back confidently."Then you will definitely lose this game."Ding Pei muttered helplessly. Sun Jian couldn't say anything. He was really familiar with this endgame. The old man was a general, and he had no killing moves against Sun Jian. Sun Jian was proficient in handling a few moves, and the old man was able to kill with his car. The camp was almost unable to kill, and it was too late to defend, so Sun Jian took the opportunity to counterattack.

The old man lost the first game just like this, and he was not willing to lose. In the second sentence, Sun Jian naturally couldn't use too much force, and the two sides fought in the middle , deliberately showing a flaw, Ding Pei saw that he was quick and shouted directly:"Dad! He lost! The old man raised his head again and glared at Ding Pei angrily:"I can't even see this move?" Do you still want to talk nonsense here?"The old man made a fool of himself and made a point, and Sun Jian abandoned his son and surrendered.

After the first two games were tied, the old man believed that Sun Jian's chess skills had really improved to a higher level in the past three days. The third game started, and the old man Not daring to be careless at all, the two meleeed again until the endgame. And this time, from the perspective of expectations, Sun Jian's remaining chess pieces were obviously stronger than the old man, but this was also a draw. Sun Jian once again asked for a draw, and the old man I had already suffered a loss before, and I didn’t dare to continue competing this time:"Your piece still has the advantage, why is it a draw? Did you let me do it on purpose?"Ding Pei had quick eyes and quick hands. He took a few steps with the chess pieces, and stepped on Sun Jian's rook with a vaulting horn:"Dad! He won't let you! Isn't this a draw?"

"well! Playing chess or playing chess, neither losing nor winning, only in this way can we be harmonious."Ding Pei's mother quickly packed her things and invited the old man to cook together. Sun Jian looked at Ding Pei and immediately smiled silly at the old man:"Dad! You still won today. As long as both sides make no mistakes in the first game, it will be a draw."

"Hahaha! It's all your sister who deliberately caused trouble and confused me. However, your chess skills have really improved a lot. Ding Pei stepped forward and hugged the old man and said coquettishly:"Dad!" Don't look down on those old men playing chess on the open-air stalls. As they say, the masters are among the people. If you practice more with these folk masters in the future, Xiaojian will definitely not be your opponent."

"good! Next time I will learn more tricks from these folk masters, and I will take care of you when I come back.

Ding Pei smiled and came up to hug his mother:"Dad!" mom! You all sit and watch TV. Today, Xiaojian and I will cook together to honor you!"

"You haven't recovered from your physical fitness yet, so he can't do much to help you."Ding Pei's mother always protected Sun Jian. Sun Jian quickly said:"Mom! If I don't get in the way, I'll help my sister. It's also my filial piety."

"dad! mom! Don't worry, I won't let him push too hard."

Ding Pei's parents didn't insist anymore. They sat down to rest, and Ding Pei and Sun Jian went into the kitchen to work together. As soon as they entered the kitchen, the two of them looked at each other, smiled, and high-fived tacitly. Ding Pei said with joy,"Great! I made rapid progress in three days, which not only proved myself, but also saved my father's face. The heat is perfectly controlled""My sister's cooperation was flawless.""This is called tacit understanding, you know? Do you admit that your IQ is still lower than mine?"It's a pity that Jenny never became an actor in this life."""go! Put the dishes in order. I'll show you my skills today.""Yes!"
