Chapter 160: Gaming Genius Gu Niang
Chapter 160: Gaming Genius Gu Niang
So, Gu Li picked up a "swallow" chess piece in front of him and placed it on the starting square. Then he picked up the dice again and threw it on the chessboard -
Still six!
Chang An couldn't help but look at Gu Li with a very worried look, and the other party asked heartlessly: "Chang Lang, I have two sixes, should I let the first swallow go? Or take out the second swallow?"
"Ah... Why is Chang Lang looking at me?!"
Chang An sighed and said, "It's nothing, it's okay whether Gu Niang wants to move the chess piece or wants the first swallow to move forward."
Gu Li nodded, then took out another "swallow" and placed it on top of the first swallow. Then he threw it a second time, and this time it was not six, but three.
"It was a close call. We almost returned with nothing."
She just picked up a chess piece and moved three squares clockwise toward herself.
The next person was Chang An. Chang An threw the dice casually and threw out a beautiful big red dot.
He immediately felt that there were a lot of black lines on his head, and then he handed the dice to Huaiqin. Huaiqin was as lucky as Gu Li, with a six at the beginning and a four at the second.
After the move, it was Zhen'er's turn again. Her throw made Chang'an feel a little embarrassed - Zhen'er also got a six. But the second throw also resulted in a beautiful big red dot.
......
Chang An hadn't played flying chess for more than 20 years. He didn't expect to lose miserably in his first round. Gu Li didn't know what was going on. He was lucky the whole round and took first place. Then came Huaiqin and Zhen'er, who also finished four moves one after another.
On the contrary, Chang An's four chess pieces were scattered in various corners of the chessboard, and none of them had been moved.
The three women looked at him in such an awkward state, and laughed quietly while covering their mouths. Gu Li gently pulled his sleeve and asked, "Chang Lang, do you want to play more?"
Chang An sighed and asked, "Does Gu Niang still want to play?"
"Hmm..." Gu Li nodded his chin and said, "Let's play. Chang Lang has to win too."
So, the three women and one man quickly arranged their chess pieces, and then Gu Li was the first to throw the chess pieces as usual. This time, Gu Li was not the first to throw a six, but Chang An was the first to throw a six.
When Chang An saw this beautiful six, his eyes suddenly lit up and he thought to himself:
"Is my luck turning for the better? My strength is back! Not much, but enough!"
Gu Li looked at Chang An's happy expression after he rolled a six, and it seemed that she was not so happy when she rolled two sixes in a row. She even applauded to celebrate for Chang An.
Chang An smiled and pinched Gu Li's cheek, then rolled the next dice...
Of course, Chang An was still unlucky in this round, and he only moved three pieces in one round. Gu Li was the first to move four pieces, and Chang An didn't just sigh this time, he even started to consider whether to play Monopoly.
Gu Li, the beloved daughter-in-law sitting next to him, looked at Chang An's state of "self-doubt" and couldn't help but feel distressed. She pulled Chang An's sleeve again and asked:
"Chang Lang, do you want to play more? How about we play Monopoly instead?"
Chang An shook his head and said, "Go ahead and try again."
Gu Li looked at Chang An, who seemed to be angry, so he nodded and put away the chess pieces together. As usual, Gu Li was the first to throw...
After another round, Chang An was completely convinced. Seeing that he was a little disappointed, Gu Li quickly said, "Chang Lang, this flying chess is not fun, let's not play it anymore."
"Huaiqin, go inside and get the Monopoly chessboard. Zhener, help me put away the flying chess."
As if he was afraid that Chang An would continue playing the game, Gu Li simply asked Huaiqin and Zhener to put away the chessboard and take out Monopoly.
"Okay, okay, actually I don't think that flying chess is fun, let's try Monopoly."
In the past, I was the one who comforted Gu Li, but I didn't expect that today it would be her turn to comfort me, and these words seemed to sound... like there was some other meaning.
Soon, Huaiqin and Zhen'er took out the Monopoly chessboard and placed it in the pavilion. Then Chang'an breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Huaiqin, go to the table in my study and bring me the piece of paper with all the writing on it."
Huaiqin ran straight to the study, and quickly took out the paper and handed it to Chang'an. Chang'an took the paper, glanced at it briefly, and said:
"That's right."
"Then Chang Lang, how should this Monopoly be played?" asked Gu Li.
"This Monopoly is the same as Ludo. Both games determine the number of points you advance by rolling dice. Different events will occur in different grids, and the player who gets the most money in the end wins." After Chang An finished speaking, he showed the paper full of words in front of the three girls.
"This is the event that will happen in each grid. Each different event grid has a different expression on it."
Gu Li nodded, and then Chang An looked at Huaiqin and Zhen'er, who also nodded to show that they understood. Chang An began to comfort himself again: Monopoly sounds simple, but in fact it is still somewhat difficult, and it also requires some luck.
Thinking of this, I felt much more comfortable. So, everyone selected their chess pieces, and then Gu Li was the first to throw the dice.
But Chang An seemed to be a little too carried away by the loss. While he was full of confidence, he seemed to have forgotten a very important thing - Gu Li came from a merchant family, and this kind of game was not difficult at all for her.
Soon, Chang An became the first player to lose all his money. Gu Li swallowed Chang An's money in various forms. When Gu Li realized this, it seemed too late.
"Sanniang is so amazing! She's always number one in every game!"
Before long, Gu Li collected enough money and became the undisputed first. Huaiqin also said sincerely, and then Zhener followed suit:
"I think it must be that Young Master designed it very well. Young Master is so good to Sanniang that he even designed the game with Sanniang's winning in mind."
Huaiqin nodded and said, "That's right. This tycoon is still doing business like a businessman. It would be strange if Gu Niang didn't come first."
Chang An finally realized what Huaiqin said. He had actually forgotten that his beloved Gu Niang was the daughter of a businessman. Even if she was not engaged in this industry, she would still be more or less affected.
"How is it, Gu Niang, is this Monopoly interesting?" Chang An asked with a smile.
Originally he would have thought that Gu Li would say it was fun, but she pouted and said with some disappointment: "It's not fun."
Chang An was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"
"Even Chang Lang can't win. This game is not fun." Gu Li said, "Chang Lang invented the game, but Chang Lang himself can't get first place. Instead, he is always last..."
Chang An smiled and said, "It's not that it's not fun, it could also be because Gu Niang is a gaming genius!"
"What is a gaming genius?" Gu Li asked puzzledly.
"Mother Gu is really good at playing games, just like Li Bai writing poems and Zhang Xu writing calligraphy." Chang An said.
Gu Li nodded and said, "So that's what you mean. Chang Lang, do you still want to play?"
"Let's play again,"
Chang An looked at the sky. It seemed that he had been playing for quite a while, and a round of Monopoly lasted quite a long time. So, Chang An lost miserably once again - and this was when Gu Li deliberately stopped playing.
Gu Li deliberately stopped on negative grids several times, causing himself to lose money, but he still came in second. Chang An naturally saw it, but there was nothing he could do, because his strength was there.
He had doubted himself countless times in his heart. He used to be the best among his friends. Even when he was in junior high school and high school, he never fell behind in games. But he was defeated repeatedly by his beloved wife.
——This should be the so-called one thing conquers another.
Gu Li also felt that it was meaningless at this time, and ordered Huaiqin and Zhener: "Huaiqin, Zhener, you should clean up. You must be tired after playing for so long."
Then she took Chang An's hand again, shook it gently, and said, "Chang Lang, I've been sitting for a long time. Can you carry me back to the room?"
Although he lost the game, with an angel by his side, all his unhappiness about losing the game was dispelled by Gu Li.
Chang An smiled, picked up Gu Li and walked into the room. Sitting back at the low table, Gu Li kissed Chang An on the face and said:
"Don't be unhappy, Chang Lang. This game is very well made by Chang Lang. It's just not very fun. At worst, we won't play it anymore."
Chang An knew that Gu Li was trying to comfort him. He smiled and gave Gu Li a salute in return, saying, "But this game of mine is specially made for Gu Niang to play."
"When Gu Niang has a child in the future, or when she is in confinement, she can play alone in the house."
"But I haven't yet, my belly is still flat." Gu Li lowered his head, reached out and touched his belly, and said somewhat frustratedly.
Chang An shook her gently and said, "It's okay, it will happen. We are still young and healthy. Mother Gu will definitely be able to give birth to many children."
"In this way, whenever someone asks us if we have children, we just throw a child to him to hold."
"I want to see who dares to urge us to have children."
Gu Li was amused by Chang An's words and started to giggle. It seemed that her lung disease was quite serious before and she had never laughed as hard as she did now.
Chang An looked at Gu Li's smile and couldn't help but be moved. He said, "My mother Gu looks beautiful when she smiles."
"Then Chang Lang, can you please make me laugh every day from now on? That way, Chang Lang can see it every day!"
