Chapter 878 Kang Chengzhi, why are you crying?
Jiang Shan shouted, "Oh my God, Kang Chengzhi, you beat my dad."
Mingzhu and Jiang Sui heard the shout and came over to look at the chessboard. It turned out that Kang Chengzhi won.
Jiang Shounuo is the best chess player in the family.
It is usually difficult for grandpa to beat him a few times, but Kang Chengzhi actually won.
Jiang Sui looked at Kang Chengzhi in surprise. After Kang Chengzhi met her eyes, there was a hint of expectation in his eyes for being praised.
But Jiang Sui didn't say anything, and Jiang Shan muttered casually, "This is luck."
Kang Chengzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Shan. This sister-in-law is not very good at talking.
Jiang Shounuo was aroused, "Xiaokang, come, play another round with your uncle."
"This... is not good."
"What's wrong with it? Do you think you can still beat me?"
Kang Chengzhi thought about it, wondering if he would offend anyone if he told the truth. The Jiang family didn't like him very much now, and he couldn't steal the limelight from his future father-in-law, so he immediately said, "Jiang Shan is right, I was just lucky just now, or maybe you were letting me off? I will definitely lose if I play again."
Jiang Shounuo could tell from the way Kang Cheng played chess just now that he was definitely a good chess player: "Play with me at your best. If you can still beat me, I'll make friends with you as a chess player. If you have time in the future, you can come to me often to compete with me."
Hearing this, Kang Chengzhi immediately became motivated. He tried his best to be able to come to the Jiang family openly and get close to Jiang Sui in the future.
"Uncle, please show some mercy."
A new game started again, Mingzhu and Jiang Sui also stayed to watch.
This game of chess was full of twists and turns. At the beginning, Kang Chengzhi was only two steps away from victory, but his uncle turned the situation around.
Seeing that his uncle was about to win, Kang Chengzhi used his ultimate move, cutting off his arm to survive, and won the game.
Kang Chengzhi won two games in a row. He could say that he was lucky
in the first game, but what about the second game? Everyone saw that Kang Chengzhi was indeed better in chess.
Mingzhu also looked up to Kang Chengzhi, who was rare. She thought that this kid only had a good-looking face, but she didn't expect that he was actually quite skilled in playing chess.
Third uncle also looked like he had discovered a treasure. He looked at Kang Chengzhi and said happily: "I didn't realize that you are so good."
Kang Chengzhi was praised by his third uncle and smiled in a good mood: "Uncle, I haven't met such a strong opponent like you for a long time. Can I come to play chess with you often in the future?"
"You can come anytime as long as I'm resting."
Kang Chengzhi's heart was filled with joy.
Mingzhu glanced at Jiang Sui from the side, and saw that there were three more speechless lines on her head. She chuckled and whispered in Jiang Sui's ear: "I always thought this boy was stupid, but today it seems that he doesn't use his brain in the right place. Look, this time, in order to pursue you, he is smart and knows to catch the king first."
Jiang Sui sighed and whispered: "This is clearly a shameless person who is invincible in the world."
"But Third Uncle is so happy now. We don't think we can drive Kang Chengzhi away for today's meal. Otherwise, you should bear it?"
Jiang Sui nodded. She had changed her mind just now.
The two went to the kitchen again to help Third Aunt with cooking. Mingzhu also told Third Aunt that Kang Chengzhi had just won against Third Uncle in chess.
Even the third aunt couldn't help but praise him: "Hey, it seems that this child is not without merits. He has a useful brain. He should use it to learn chess." The
third aunt's complaint caused Mingzhu and Jiang Sui to look at each other and laugh.
During the meal, Kang Chengzhi sat between Jiang Duo and Jiang Qi.
The third uncle was in a good mood today because he found a good little chess friend. He even asked Kang Chengzhi if he wanted to drink and poured a glass for Kang Chengzhi.
Kang Chengzhi was flattered and clinked glasses with the future father-in-law he had identified in his heart, with a humble look.
Seeing Jiang Qi frowning and looking at him from time to time, Kang Chengzhi felt guilty.
He thought of something and raised his glass to Jiang Qi: "Jiang Qi, I want to toast you a glass."
Jiang Qi:...
A weasel wishing a happy new year to a chicken is either a traitor or a thief.
"Is it necessary?"
"Of course I have. I have hated you many times in the past few years. At that time... I was too confused. I think I should apologize to you and thank you for not treating me the same way for so many years."
Jiang Qi stared at Kang Chengzhi's wine glass, thought for a moment, and did not move the glass in his hand. Instead, he asked, "Do you have something to ask of me?"
"No, I just want to say sorry for the harm I caused you. Over the years, I have seen too many people pointing fingers at me and heard too many gossips about you and Liu Xiaoran. I always feel that all the harm I suffered was caused by you.
Because Liu Xiaoran once saved my life, I did not target her, but instead blamed you for all the harm. I owe you this apology. Of course, you can choose not to forgive me. After all, if I were you, I would have gone crazy a long time ago." After she
finished speaking, the table fell silent. Quietly, Jiang Sui said with a sullen face and unfriendly tone: "Since you want to bring up this matter, then I have to ask you, do you only owe my brother an apology?
Back then, my brother was often criticized because of your scolding. You owed it to Liu Xiaoran, and you married her back to repay her kindness. You deserve to be tortured by her, but why do you transfer all those injuries to my brother? Let him endure so much gossip?"
Jiang Sui's words made Kang Jingzhi somewhat embarrassed, but after all, he was the one who opened the window paper, so he had to endure Jiang Sui's words.
He nodded: "It's all my fault, so I have to apologize..."
"We don't accept it!" Jiang Sui snorted angrily and turned his head away.
The atmosphere at the table suddenly dropped. Kang Chengzhi put down his wine glass, lowered his head, and looked a little defeated.
However, Tian Hongxiu felt a little sorry for Kang Chengzhi's pitiful appearance.
She nudged Jiang Sui and whispered, "Okay, this is a matter between your brother and Xiaokang. Let these two grown men handle it themselves. Don't get involved."
Auntie San said as she picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for Kang Chengzhi and put it in the bowl: "Xiaokang, don't talk about the past while eating. Don't you like sweet dishes? Come on, eat."
Kang Chengzhi nodded and looked at Tian Hongxiu gratefully: "Auntie, thank you."
He could only put down his wine glass, picked up the chopsticks, picked up the sweet and sour pork ribs, put them in his mouth, and took two bites: "Hmm, delicious."
The taste... is not as fresh as the one made by the aunt at home, but it is exceptionally delicious. Is this... the taste of home-cooked meals?
Seeing this, Jiang Shan immediately livened up the atmosphere and talked about the interesting guests he met in the mall today.
The atmosphere at home was livened up again.
Kang Chengzhi ate the "home-cooked meal" and looked at the happy family in front of him, and his heart was moved.
It turned out that this was the life of ordinary people that he had never experienced before. It turned out that such a life was so happy.
When Jiang Shan was talking about her happiness, she scanned the faces of several people and then said in surprise: "Hey, Kang Chengzhi, why are you crying?"
