happy looking back

Surrounded by water, the scenery is beautiful.From a distance, it looks like a huge white cocoon lying quietly on the black and yellow land.The only way to connect the opposite bank to the greenhouse is this simple and elegant bamboo bridge in front of you.The carved railings and painted buildings on the bridge, the pavilions and pavilions, and the reflections in the water reflect each other, and there is an elegant and agile atmosphere everywhere.

Walking into the big oval-shaped greenhouse, I was stunned by what I saw. The "cocoon"-shaped greenhouse has a height of seven or eight meters and a length of nearly a thousand meters. Walking into it seems like walking into a dreamlike space-time tunnel.Next to the winding path paved with stone milk is a series of well-defined channels, in which the spring water is gurgling and tinkling.

In the "Jiugongge" experimental field neatly divided by ditches, there are vines full of green leaves, small and immature nurseries, or green vegetables and fruits.There are also clusters of red, pink, and white flower buds, competing for beauty and fragrance.

The young father's office is in the corner of this large experimental greenhouse full of flowers, without wall tiles for isolation or bonsai decoration.Here, the vines in the flower garden are used as the wall, and the flowers and fruit trees are used as the scenery. The integrated natural scenery makes people feel refreshed and happy.

However, the atmosphere in the young village head's office is now tense, and it seems to be on the verge of breaking out.Sitting around the ancient tree stump were four big figures with stagnant expressions and a bit of "master" air.This scene made me feel for a moment that I was about to see the legendary real dragon chess game that was put to death and then reborn.But when I approached quietly, the rolling dice in the middle of the chessboard almost made me vomit three liters of blood.

"Flying chess?!" I could definitely stuff a big boiled duck egg into my wide-open mouth. Such a mysterious and ethereal place, such four extraordinary characters, such a tense atmosphere hanging by a thread, are actually a bunch of people. Idle people sit together and play flying chess, and it seems that they are still playing very restlessly.Such a discovery not only scared me a lot, but Li Xiqing, who saw all kinds of novelty in the world, couldn't help turning purple in an instant.

"Quiet! Watch chess without saying a word, what a gentleman!" Grandpa Baoxiang, who was sitting facing the east head, was solemn, staring at the chess board on the stake without blinking.Hearing my cry, the old man let out a low cry of extreme dissatisfaction, which made me cover my mouth quickly, so as not to disturb the otherworldly experts at the scene.

Sitting across from the grandfather was Li Xiqing's father, Li Shengze. Li's father, who had passed his forties, was gentle and refined, and he had lost the cunning and viciousness of his youth. Now he is more like a "good man" who is content and happy.Seeing Li Xiqing coming in, Father Li just glanced lightly, and then stared intently at the dice jumping between his fingers.

"Flying chess is also a chess." The one who can say such Zen words is the tallest person here, Grandpa Zhang Fenggang who sits facing south.Although this old man is now receiving relief subsidies from the state every month, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to take off the big hat of "reactionary" in his life.But these cannot affect the excellent state of mind of the old man. With the superb medical skills of Grandpa Jian Yixuan, the rheumatism that has plagued the old man for half a century has been effectively controlled.Coupled with the nourishment of the holy water of Lingshan Mountain in Xiaohe Village, the old man is still immortal and strong in spirit.

"Five points in five, three back, one stop!" When the focused father Li stretched his five fingers and threw it vigorously, the dice danced faintly and rapidly spinning between criss-crossing square inches like a bouncing pinball. light and shadow.The four people around the wooden stake were staring at the spinning dice closely. Just when the shadow of the dice became clearer and clearer, Mr. Jian Yixuan, who was sitting opposite Grandpa Zhang Fenggang, quickly reported the next move that Father Li was about to make. number.Such quick eyesight and fast calculation ability are secretly staggering, even the wise and almost demon grandfather Zhang Fenggang thinks he can't do it.

"I strongly demand to throw it again!" Li Shengze's father said such a sentence, which is more incredible than thunder on a sunny day.What kind of person is Li Shengze? The number of people who knew him 13 years ago is clear, but there are very few people who don't know him 13 years later.

Dare to invest in the inland without reservation in the early stage of the reform and opening up in the mainland. Few businessmen who put profit first can do this kind of courage and courage.Li Shengze did it, and it succeeded.Big risks lead to big gains. The Li Group's stock market has been soaring all the way, and the personal assets under its name have multiplied by more than ten thousand times, and it has already ranked among the billionaires.Now who dares to say that Li Shengze is a nouveau riche, who will definitely be despised by an 80-year-old old lady or a three-year-old baby.

"Everything can be one, but two, and no more. You rolled five points in the last set. You used the excuse that there was a time difference in the plane, which affected your hand feeling. It is unfair to wait for work with the rest of us. Ask for another set. We old fellows are not unreasonable people, and I gave you another chance, but you rolled a five this time." Mr. Jian Yixuan came from a family of doctors, so it is inevitable to find fault with things.Hearing that Papa Li wanted to regret the game again, Grandpa Jian was lucky enough to hold the rolling dice in his hand, resolutely opposing someone's dishonest behavior.

"There are only three things! Xiao Li, it seems God's will to throw five in three consecutive sets today~~~" Mr. Zhang Fenggang touched his beard that didn't exist at all, narrowed his narrow eyes, and had long snow-white hair Scattered across his skeletal back.That look is the same as the Taishang Laojun who refines the elixir of life in Journey to the West.

"Old Zhang, I never believe in God's will. God's will is up to me, so it's hard to do it." After all, he is an old fox who dominates the mall, and the tail of a wild beast is always revealed inadvertently.Saying that Papa Li reached out to snatch the dice from Grandpa Jian's hand, I looked at Li Xiqing dumbfounded: So Papa Li still has an unknown side!Li Xiqing raised her eyebrows admiringly: "Never say never" is the motto of the old Li family.

I let out a disdainful "hush", turned my head and turned my attention back to the battlefield for the dice.No wonder the eldest aunt said that she was pleasantly surprised. It was the first time that she could see the four big men playing intellectual games, and they had a lot of fun.

What Sun Jihai said about the big man who can make more people live a better life should be Father Li.With Father Li's current wealth and energy, his whereabouts must be closely watched by the outside world.But I just came back from a country's capital, and I didn't hear any news along the way. It is conceivable that Papa Li's trip was extraordinary.

"Dayong, don't stand here stupidly. Tonight, on New Year's Eve, go and fight for your father." I was about to find a stake to sit on, when my face-conscious grandpa issued an order to evict me.I stood up sullenly, and reluctantly glanced at Mr. Zhang Fenggang, the highest seniority, but he was also ignored.

"Baby, help Papa Li to oversee the work. Let's see how your Papa Heping's bamboo chessboard is doing. You can't do it carelessly." Listening to the first half of Papa Li's sentence, I thought Papa Li was thoughtful and considerate. I am concerned about my little heart's ability to bear the order of eviction.But the second half of the sentence revealed Papa Li's true intentions. Papa Li, who is known as the "many-faced fox" in the mall, is still worried about the lack of a high-end chess set in the corner of his quaint living room.

"Let's go! It's really lack of interest to play tricks of some bad old men." Li Xiqing's disgusted expression made the expressions of the four big men present all change, and without waiting for the four grandpas to react, he forcibly pulled Holding my hand, I walked behind the "natural barrier" purple grape vines.

Purple grapes are one of the most common fruits. Bunches of dark purple grapes are wrapped in white almost transparent oil paper.The moist color makes people salivate under the tongue, and a hint of sourness with a touch of sweetness instantly fills the mouth.Haven't tasted it, but smelled it, it's already salivating.Passing through the ripe and fragrant purple grape vines, I saw the young father with his back to me, his arms trembling rhythmically, and beside him were splashes of sawdust.

"Three people become tigers, not to mention four coming here at once!" I thought that my father would be like usual, once he held his beloved bamboo knife in his hand, he completely forgot about the outside world.So when I walked in lightly and slowly, the young father suddenly said a word of complaint, which made me feel pity immediately.

"Dad, are you okay~~~" Seeing the young father's eyes darkened, his expression sad, his hair messy, and even his eyelashes were covered with sweat or mucus.Looking so haggard, I was really worried that the young father, who was always energetic, would fall asleep like this.

Beside him was an unformed chessboard that was [-] centimeters long and wide, surrounded by scattered bamboo pieces and bamboo carving knives of different sizes.At this moment, what the father is holding in his hand is a small and exquisite box, which is an exquisite and rounded cube with dragons and phoenixes on it. Although it is not finished, it has begun to show its complex and exquisite craftsmanship and simple and noble temperament.

"Peace! The African butter grape seeds you want are guaranteed to arrive by air next week. You can rest assured." Across the purple grape vines, Father Li enthusiastically comforted the young father.But when the young father heard Papa Li's words, his haggard face became more miserable.He hesitated whether to put away the beautiful box that was being carved in his hand, and then picked up the chessboard on the ground to continue the subsequent process.

"Peace! I'm going to take this cosmetic box to Paris, France to participate in the jewelry exhibition, do you think it's okay?" I didn't expect that on the other side of the young father, across the airtight green vines was the beautiful and elegant mother Li.Hearing Mama Li's gentle words and invisible temptation, poor
