Literary Master 1983

Chapter 141 Sending a Letter
Gulou Street, Yu Qie’s home.

"One to three."

"Point!"

"Zhang Li, why did you hit me? We are in the same group."

"Chen Xiaoxu, don't I want to play a card too?"

"You just saw that Yu Qie lost too much, and you wanted him to lose less. We can't play cards like this!"

Three people were playing Landlord, and Yu Qie taught them.

This game is a great invention of the people of Hubei Province. It was originally called "Two on One". There are many chess and card games in China, but the only one that has become popular all over the country and has remained popular for decades is Landlord.

Originally, this game was adapted from the local card game "Paodekuai" in 1995, and now the inventor has become Yu Qie.

Yu Qie required that there must be a jackpot for playing Landlord and it could not involve money. After discussion, the jackpot became sticking a note on the head.

Now Yu Qie's forehead was covered with notes. For some reason, these two girls were very smart and could remember the cards easily.

She is so sensitive to numbers. No wonder she became a wealthy woman despite having the debuff of "sadness and sadness" in doing business.

Yu Qie really couldn't beat them.

Zhang Li has the least on her face, followed by Chen Xiaoxu.

As Yu Qie's face was almost covered with cards, the game tonight was about to decide the winner. In order to stay with Yu Qie for a while longer, Zhang Li started to lose cards on purpose, and Chen Xiaoxu soon found something wrong.

She likes to play tricks on Yu Qie, especially by pressing a piece of paper on Yu Qie's forehead, which makes her feel like "the weak defeats the strong." She can't beat him in kung fu, but she can beat him in cards.

Another lost hand, this time it was Zhang Li and Chen Xiaoxu who lost.

Chen Xiaoxu was helpless: "We can't play the game like this. Not only did you calculate his cards, you also calculated my cards. You always make it difficult for me to make a move, and let him get away with it easily."

Zhang Li stuck out her tongue: "I just typed it randomly, I didn't remember those things."

Yu Qie reminded Zhang Li: "It's a little late."

After hearing Yu Qie's instructions, Zhang Li no longer controlled the points accurately. Unexpectedly, Yu Qie's luck with cards improved from then on. Because he was lucky enough, there was nothing he could do even if he calculated the cards correctly.

The strips on Chen Xiaoxu's face kept increasing and he was about to cry.

Yu Qie saw that the time was right, so he made a few random moves, and Chen Xiaoxu finally won. With her cleverness, she must have known what was going on.

Chen Xiaoxu rolled his eyes at Yu Qie: I’m not happy if I win, and I’m even more unhappy if I lose.

Late at night, the two women slept in the side room and talked about the recent hooligan case:
"Xiao Xu, another female student was murdered in the wasteland outside Guangqumen. I closed my eyes when I saw the newspaper and didn't dare to look at the photo on it!"

Guangqumen is already between the second and third ring roads, and is even closer to the second ring road.

What Zhang Li worried about has come true, and maybe the next time it will happen near them.

"You're afraid of mice, so why did you come back?"

"Yu Qie and I will be separated soon, and we won't have much time to see each other in the future. I feel guilty, and I often feel that I have not fulfilled my obligations as a fiancée... People like him should be surrounded by others and taken care of in life and emotions!"

Chen Xiaoxu was impatient with this statement: "Yu Qie is a grown man, why does he need you to take care of him? I see that he doesn't do his job properly every day. He runs and lifts dumbbells to exercise his muscles. He eats beef for every meal. He also goes back to Yanda to play table tennis with his classmates... He has a lot of fun."

"Xiao Xu, you don't understand. He is a writer. This is his way of relieving stress."

"Lulululu~" Chen Xiaoxu imitated Zhang Li's speech, but deliberately said vaguely like a baby: "The price of a pagoda~ This pagoda——"

Zhang Li suddenly made up her mind, "After I finish filming Dream of Red Mansions, I will do business!" "Why are you doing business?"

"Yu Qie spends money lavishly. No matter how much money he has, I can't stand him spending it like that. His money is all written word by word with great effort. I shouldn't care about his money, but what if he runs out of money in the future?"

"He can write a novel, right?"

"It's not like you can always get inspiration when writing novels!" Zhang Li said anxiously, "To be honest, I'm going to do business in the future. As long as I make enough money, he won't have to worry about these things."

In the middle of the night, Zhang Li woke up and ran to see that Yu Qie's quilt was not covered properly. She came back and explained: "Yu Qie likes to kick the quilt very much. He is like a child."

Chen Xiaoxu was completely shocked: "Zhang Li, I'm afraid I will never be able to treat others like you do. I need others to take care of me first."

“It’s because you haven’t met someone you like.”

"I haven't met one? I have a boyfriend..."

When Chen Xiaoxu said this, she recalled her boyfriend in her mind, but for some reason, she didn't have any deep impression of him at the moment.

This is not good.

Although she felt that Zhang Li was too maternal, she also understood that it was troublesome for Yu Qie to pick them up and drop them off every day.

Dongfang Wenying, who played "Tanchun", taught Chen Xiaoxu kung fu. Dongfang Wenying and her boyfriend were in the same crew, but they were divided into different groups. Sometimes Dongfang Wenying went shopping alone and asked her boyfriend to accompany her. Her boyfriend didn't come and said, "Don't you know kung fu? Why are you afraid of gangsters?"

Dongfang Wenying lost her temper: "I originally thought that you and I had a good relationship, but I didn't expect that you and your spouse would fly around in trouble!"

So, Chen Xiaoxu began to imagine, if she was in trouble one day, would there be a reliable person who could rescue her. At this moment, a picture broke into her mind, that was the scene where Yu Qie picked her up.

The way Yu Che looked, his long arms, the way he lifted the visor of his helmet and laughed at her - he looked like a movie star, and quite bad.

It's over! It's over!

Chen Xiaoxu felt hot all over. This was really shameless. Zhang Li was still beside him. How could he think about someone else's man?

Besides, Yu Qie obviously hates me, he definitely won’t like me - wait, what does it have to do with me whether he likes me or not?

I shouldn't think about this anymore!
Chen Xiaoxu got up and wrote a letter to his boyfriend, a letter expressing his longing for him.

She copied some poems from the Youth Poetry Magazine and wrote them in the letter: "May you and I carry the lightest baggage and the richest self, wandering in the world, with dreams as our horses, and be able to live anywhere."

When writing this letter, Chen Xiaoxu was in a strange mood. It was like she was acting, she was playing the role of a long-distance girlfriend who missed her boyfriend. At this moment, she even liked these words much more than she liked her boyfriend.

I wonder what kind of person is the one who wrote these words. He should be much gentler than Yu Qi.

Because the light was on, Zhang Li woke up: "Xiao Xu, what are you writing?"

"Write to my boyfriend."

"Then you can ask him about the recent disturbance in the capital. Your boyfriend will definitely show concern for you."

Chen Xiaoxu exaggerated the matter, emphasizing that a gangster was wreaking havoc in Yanjing City and she didn't know when it would be her turn as a weak woman to suffer. She felt very worried and scared.

After writing this letter, Chen Xiaoxu was looking forward to how her boyfriend would reply to comfort her, a weak woman.

In the morning, Yu Qie heard about this and asked Chen Xiaoxu to put the letter directly in his mailbox. There is a post office on Gulou Street. Because he often has to reply to readers' letters, the number is large, and the postman will come to pick up the mail regularly.

"Snapped!"

The letter was stamped and stamped, and the address was Yu Qie's home. The date was July 1st, which happened to be the day when Yu Qie's single book was published.
