The next day, Song Yuehua arrived at the chess hall early.
Pan Le and Xiaoyu were already cleaning, Xiang Chen also moved out the big chessboard, and Zhao Xiaofu was cooking mung bean soup in the backyard.
There are a total of 4 chess tables today, and they were originally divided a bit scattered. After thinking about it, Song Yuehua decided to put them all aside.
At that time, the big chessboard will be facing the chess players, who can play chess and watch the game at the same time.
If someone just wants to watch the chess game, some space can be reserved for that.
Not long after, chess players came over one after another.
The eight chess players also arrived early and after sitting in their respective seats, they started playing chess as soon as the time came.
The sound of chess pieces dropping could be heard in the chess hall.
Song Yuehua noticed that in addition to the regular chess players, there were also many new guests today.
Most people were staring at the game between Zhang Rushan and the oil shop owner's sixth master on the big chessboard.
Although Song Yuehua was not optimistic about Zhang Rushan, she still hoped that he could win the competition.
After all, he is a scholar and a lawyer. He should not let such things ruin his business.
"Boss, don't worry too much. I don't think Sixth Uncle can beat Mr. Zhang." Xiang Xiaoyu comforted.
Song Yuehua: "..." Can't even Uncle Six be defeated?
Zhang Rushan has been holding on for so long, so even if he loses to Sixth Uncle it won't be too embarrassing.
The first chess game to end was the one between Zuo Siye and Leng Suxue.
Master Zuo Si, who had been slow in the last round, was unable to withstand Leng Suxue's powerful attack.
After admitting defeat, Master Zuo Si sighed heavily.
"Old man Zuo, you have met your match. This girl is very good at chess. It won't be embarrassing for you to lose!"
Master Mu patted Master Zuo Si on the shoulder and comforted him.
Zuo Siye glared at him and said, "I didn't find it ugly in the first place."
Mr. Bai asked Leng Suxue, "Miss Leng, can we also review today's game?"
"Can."
Leng Suxue responded.
They had just finished here, and the table next to them also finished.
The winner was a man who didn't say much.
"Tiezhu, not bad." Liu Sandiao leaned over and put his hand on Liu Tiezhu's shoulder.
After Liu Tiezhu arranged the chess pieces, he looked at Liu Santiao and said, "Uncle San, I should go back to feed the chickens."
"You won a lot of money for your uncle today. How about your uncle treat you to a set meal?" Liu San Tiao said with a smile.
Liu Tiezhu put down his chess piece and came over to ask Zhao Xiaofu, "Can I still order a set meal now?"
"It's a little late now, but the kitchen made a few extra portions for today's competition. You can order it," said Zhao Xiaofu.
Liu Tiezhu looked at Liu Santiao and said, "Uncle San, do you want it or not?"
"Of course," Liu San Tiao raised his chin and said, "Xiao Fuzi, two servings."
"Okay, I've got that." Zhao Xiaofu said loudly.
Song Yuehua called Pan An, took out a menu and asked him to deliver it to Zhou Xiaohu.
"Boss!"
Xiang Xiaoyu said excitedly, "Zhang Rushan won!"
"ah!"
Song Yuehua had even thought of how to comfort Zhang Rushan, but in the end he won again.
Uncle Liu from the oil shop lost the game of chess, so Zhang Rushan treated him to a set meal just like he did yesterday, and the two of them happily reviewed the game.
Although Song Yuehua felt that Zhang Rushan should be able to win, she still didn't have the confidence.
Now that she actually won, she was a little surprised.
It was not until noon that Zhou Xiaohu brought the meal, but the game of chess between Jiesexing and Xiang Chen had not yet ended.
Xiang Xiaoyu changed the chess pieces on the big chessboard to the chess game between Xiang Chen and Jiesexing.
Many chess players discussed the chess game while eating. The aroma of the food and the rice made Jiesexing swallow his saliva.
When everyone had almost finished eating, Xiang Chen looked at the chess game between the two and had no choice but to admit defeat.
Abstain from sex and put your hands together in greeting.
"Boss, I lost." When Xiang Chen came over and said this, he didn't even dare to look up at anyone.
Song Yuehua said in a gentle voice, "Eat first. We will need your help in the chess hall in the afternoon."
"Um."
The abstinent young monk sitting there swallowed hard, picked up the teapot beside him and drank a few cups of water.
Song Yuehua asked Xiang Xiaoyu to go over and ask if they wanted some vegetarian food.
Hearing this, Jie Se's eyes lit up, and he looked at her and said, "Did the donor prepare vegetarian food for me today as well?"
"Yes, young master, do you want to eat now?" Song Yuehua said with a smile.
Jie Se nodded repeatedly, and after the list of players for the fifth round of games was drawn, Song Yuehua asked Xiang Xiaoyu to take him to the backyard for dinner.
The fifth round was in the afternoon, with a total of two games for four people.
Zhang Rushan and Leng Suxue, Jie Se and Liu Tiezhu.
"This afternoon is the fifth round, and tomorrow will be the final round. We don't know who will win," said Xiang Xiaoyu.
As soon as Song Yuehua heard her tone, she knew that she must have placed a bet.
"Who did you buy?" Song Yuehua asked.
Xiang Xiaoyu chuckled twice, not knowing how to answer, and glanced at Zhao Xiaofu.
Song Yuehua, "..."
"So, who did you two bet on?" Song Yuehua asked.
The two men had no choice but to confess that they had placed their bets through Erguotou.
Erguotou, okay.
Originally, Song Yuehua thought that both of them were betting on the same person.
I only found out after listening to them.
Xiang Xiaoyu bet the money on Leng Suxue, and Zhao Xiaofu bet on Jiesexing.
Moreover, at the instigation of Xiang Xiaoyu, Zhou Xiaohu deposited two taels of silver.
Song Yuehua tapped Xiang Xiaoyu's forehead and said, "You, just play by yourself. You can't ask others to help you with gambling. It's okay if you win, but what if you lose?"
Xiang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "I just like Miss Leng. Now I think I was a little impulsive."
Song Yuehua couldn't help but say a few more words, "You can't give advice to others when it comes to money. Got it?"
"Okay, I know I was wrong." Xiang Xiaoyu said dejectedly.
Although Xiang Xiaoyu was as quiet as a frost-bitten eggplant at this moment, she became noisy again after a few words.
He asked Song Yuehua for leave and ran out in a hurry.
It seems that he is looking for Erguotou again.
After Jie Se finished his meal, he cleaned the lunch box and came over to thank Song Yuehua.
Seeing that his outer robe was a little dirtier than yesterday, Song Yuehua asked, "Did the young master stay at the inn last night?"
"I'm staying at the inn," Jiesese said with a smile, "The owner of that place was kind and agreed to let me stay in the stable."
Song Yuehua, "..."
Originally lived in the stable.
Song Yuehua was a little curious, "I wonder where the young master is going to come from and where he is going?"
"I came from the Qingyuan Temple in Mangxing Mountain. I left the mountain only to seek a breakthrough in chess skills." Jiesexing replied.
"Qingyuan Temple?" Song Yuehua asked Zhao Xiaofu, "Have you heard of it?"
Zhao Xiaofu shook his head, "No."
Jie Se continued, "The year before last, our master passed away. There were only me and my senior brother in the temple. There were no pilgrims on weekdays, so naturally no one knew about it."
There are no pilgrims in the temple?
Song Yuehua was just curious but didn't ask any more questions.
The young monk who came out of an unknown temple sounded like a reclusive master, but he certainly didn't look like one.
