Chapter 126 Hand Talk
As the Spring Festival approaches, the Lin Mansion is busy and festive. From the perspective of the solar term, time has begun to enter the Great Cold.
Lin Yu's cold finally got better, but these days, the weather became colder and colder. Han Qingyue specially asked someone to make a thick gray-white cloak. The old god was wearing a gray-white cloak and was calmly sitting under the eaves and roasting the stove. Lin Yu felt like an old man wearing a military fur coat in Yanjing Hutong in the early 1990s.
After Lin Yu taught them how to build snowmen, the two girls were very excited. One of them pushed a big snowball and rolled around in the courtyard. Then Jinbao used his strength to stack the two big snowballs together.
"This is Lin Yu's hand."
Bai Xiaoxue inserted a big wooden stick into the snowman's waist.
"This is Lin Yu's eyes."
She used her small fist to punch two concave holes on the snowman's head, picked up two round stones and stuffed them vigorously.
"This is Lin Yu's nose."
After taking the carrot handed over by Xiaoqing, Bai Xiaoxue directly thrust the carrot into the snowman's head with a "pop".
Lin Yu, who was sitting on the side, felt pain in his eyes. The little girl’s family could not be gentle. If she gets married in the future, I don’t know who will suffer this...
"Lin Yu!"
Bai Xiaoxue exclaimed in her mouth: "Look at the trick!"
She raised her little feet and kicked directly at the lower half of the snowman. The whole snowman immediately fell apart, and snowflakes flew and fell on her hair. Bai Xiaoxue, like a porcelain doll, showed a bright smile.
“…”
...
At noon, the snowflakes that had stopped a little bit started to fall again. The servant in charge of cleaning in the mansion smiled helplessly. During the meal, Bai Xiaoxue kept asking Lin Yu what else to do.
"Last year, I saw people on the street building snow lions, which were very beautiful. But this is the first time I piled up round snowmen like this, it's so fun." Bai Xiaoxue giggled.
Thinking of the snowman falling apart, Bai Xiaoxue's little feet stepped on it and cursed "stinky Lin Yu" and Lin Yu felt speechless.
Han Qingyue looked outside and said, "The snow this year seems to be a little heavier than in previous years."
"Idiot Lin Yu, is there anything else to be fun!" Bai Xiaoxue asked with her tiger teeth showing off.
Han Qingyue pretended to be a little angry and said, "Xue'er, it's snowing so hard now, don't go out to play in the afternoon."
She had already "teached" Lin Yu a lesson when she was playing with snowman in the morning. Bai Xiaoxue nodded and said happily: "Okay."
In the afternoon, the snowflakes were getting heavier and thicker, and a thick layer of snow was thronged on the roof. Just like in the morning, Lin Yu was wearing a cloak, roasting a stove, and reading a book. It was almost evening when a huge meat ball ran in from outside the courtyard, like a snowball. Bai Fugui saw Lin Yu and smiled, "Master Lin Yu."
Lin Yu stood up and saluted, saying, "Uncle Bai."
Bai Xiaoxue was learning the guzheng in Han Qingyue's boudoir. When she heard that her father Bai Fugui was coming, she ran to see him with her little mouth flat.
Since his daughter Bai Xiaoxue visited the garden and enjoyed poetry, she has been in the Lin family for a while. Seeing that the Spring Festival is approaching, the old lady of the Bai family talked about her granddaughter Bai Xiaoxue several times, but no one appeared. She also called Bai Fugui to scold her, "Why did you wait for my old man to swallow this last breath before you let my baby granddaughter come to see me!" After saying that by my mother, Bai Fugui could only run to the Lin Mansion in person and prepare to call Bai Xiaoxue back.
Hearing her grandmother muttered about her, Bai Xiaoxue could only agree to go home. Han Qingyue smiled faintly and said, "Xue'er, if you still want to learn the piano, it's not too late to learn again after the New Year."
Lin Yu echoed: "Yes, yes."
Bai Xiaoxue glared at Lin Yu, smiled at Han Qingyue, then took his father Bai Fugui's arm and left happily.
When Bai Xiaoxue left, Lin Yu found that the entire Lin Mansion seemed to have become much quieter and less lively.
After dinner, Lin Yu was walking in the courtyard. Seeing a small piece of carrot head exposed in the courtyard, he leaned over and picked it up. Thinking of the little girl's rough movements in the morning, he shook her head and smiled. Somewhere in the room, Han Qingyue looked at this scene, thoughtful, turned around and left.
With the experience of having a fever last time, Lin Yu would check whether some doors and windows are correct when he was sleeping. After the examination, he took off his cloak and wrapped himself in a quilt to prepare to sleep. He thought in his mind that the little girl is no longer here, and it is time to digest the materials sent by Gao Xueshang in the study.
Just as Lin Yu was gradually falling asleep, the door of the room was gently pushed open, Han Qingyue walked in and saw that Lin Yu was already lying on the bed, frowned slightly, put the things in her hand on the table, walked over and touched his forehead, and said with concern: "Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm a little tired, so I thought about taking a break earlier."
Seeing the two wooden boxes that Han Qingyue placed on the table, Lin Yu asked, "What are the uses of these two wooden boxes?"
When Han Qingyue saw Lin Yu get up, she walked to the side and took the cloak over and let him put it on. She turned around and closed the wooden door in the room, and said, "I don't think I'm bored if I have Xue'er playing with you these days. Now Xue'er is back, I think you may feel bored..."
Han Qingyue said this, seeing that Lin Yu had rested so early and knew that he was not wrong, she smiled and said, "So I took two boxes of hands and talked to you to relieve my boredom."
In this era, hand talk is Go. The reason why it is called "hand talk" is because when playing chess, he keeps silent and relies on the middle finger, index finger of one hand, and uses the chess piece to fight wits and courage.
Lin Yu said: "I have never played hand-talk, and I don't understand the rules. It seems... I can't get it."
This is naturally a lie. In my previous life, every weekend afternoon, Lin Yu would turn on his computer to play Go games in Tencent, and he is also an old player with a higher rank.
But now I cannot admit that I know how to play Go. You should know that in Han Qingyue's opinion, Lin Yu has never touched chess pieces and doesn't even understand the rules.
Han Qingyue nodded and said, "The rules will not be difficult, I will understand them soon."
Now Lin Yu can not only write poetry but also write lyrics, so IQ is naturally not a problem. Thinking of this, Han Qingyue turned around and opened the wooden box on the table, placed the chessboard, and then began to fall word by word, and then taught the rules of Go.
...
...
"Sister Niangzi, I think this Go is too time-consuming, and I feel I can't learn it."
"It's okay, I'll understand after practicing a few more times."
"By the way! I suddenly thought of a fast and fun chess game."
"What kind of chess game?"
"I call it Goko!"
