[Chess Soul] Persistent eyes

At ten o'clock the next morning, the three members of Tachibana's family rang the doorbell of Tachibana's house as agreed, because it was an official visit + blind date, and they knew that Tachibana's house was a traditional Japanese lifestyle, so it was rare that the three members of Tachibana's family They all wore formal kimonos.Tianyin neutralized the hair color back to the original blue, and was beautifully coiled up by Mama Tachibana early in the morning. She was wearing a kimono with a milky white hem and a light pink flower pattern, and a blue shawl slightly darker than her hair color. , a pink belt with yellow jacquard, holding a handbag of the same style as the kimono, and wearing it has been silent all the time. Whether walking or sitting or standing, the neck is stretched straight, as if I have gotten used to the demeanor that should be maintained in the kimono. A traditional Japanese classic beauty.Although it was the first time for Ju's father and Ju's mother to put on a kimono for her daughter, it was formal attire.Mama Tachibana used to study kimonos because of her hobbies, and she occasionally wears them at home, so it is normal to be proficient in her techniques, but Xiao Yin is also thoughtful and proficient in helping Mama Tachibana wear them, and then with the help of Mama Tachibana After putting on my own body, and very skillful in putting on the skirt and tying the belt, the two parents just thought it was their own daughter who was very smart and learned it when picking up the custom-made kimono. The cleverness nodded secretly.

After ringing the doorbell, they didn't open the door from the inside and let them enter the house, but Taya's family came out of the house to greet them as if they had been waiting for a long time. Taya Yukihiro showed a rare smile and stepped forward enthusiastically. Tachibana greeted Papa Tachibana, and Papa Tachibana smiled and gave Taya Yukihiro an American-style hug. Akiko Taya and Mama Tachibana just watched with smiles.

"This is my daughter, Ju Tianyin." Ju's father embraced Xiaoyin and introduced it to Taya's family proudly.

"Uncle Taya, Auntie, hello. I'm Tachibana Tianyin. Please take care of me when we meet for the first time. I'm very sorry that I couldn't come to visit due to various reasons." After finishing speaking, he bowed and apologized.The graceful posture and beautiful straight neck moved everyone's heart: What a Yamato Nadeshiko!Immediately afterwards, apart from the Taya family who didn't know, the two who knew about this thought had an urge to cover their faces.

"This is a snack I made myself, I hope you don't dislike it." After saying that, he handed over a package of beautifully packaged homemade snacks.

Taya and his wife were very satisfied with their standard impeccable demeanor and sincere tone, completely forgetting that this girl grew up overseas.

"He is such a beautiful and caring boy, but let's stop talking here. It's so cold, come in." Taya Akiko said to the Tachibana family with a smile on her face, and a group of people walked towards the main house along the path , along the way, Ta Yaliang looked at Tianyin next to him thoughtfully from time to time, always felt that she had seen this beautiful little girl before but couldn't find a clue at all...

After a while, everyone sat in the living room of Taya's house.

"I've only seen pictures of Tianyin when she was a child before, and she looks very different when she grows up." Taya Akiko said with emotion as soon as she sat down, and then said to Xiaoliang as if she suddenly remembered something: "Xiao Liang, this is Miss Tian Yin, please get along well. Tian Yin, this is my son, Ta Ya Liang. Say hello to each other."

"Chu..." Ta Yaliang was interrupted just as he was about to speak.

"It's not the first time we met, Taya-kun. We met two months ago, and I said my name was 'Mochizuki'. It's a pity that I couldn't sit down and chat." Tianyin interrupted with a smile.

Ta Yaliang was shocked, but he couldn't connect the two, because her appearance and temperament were too different when they met twice.Although I thought Tianyin looked familiar before, it was absolutely impossible to connect her with "Watching the Moon" whom I met two months ago.He has a lot of questions but his good upbringing keeps him quiet in front of his parents.

"Huh? Have you seen it? Where is it?" Ming Zi asked in surprise.

"In the courtyard of our house." Liang replied.

"At that time, I just came to see it casually. I didn't know that the next door was Toya's house, so I didn't prepare for anything and didn't dare to interrupt abruptly, and I didn't say hello. I'm really sorry."

"Oh? So our new neighbors are you? Why is the 'mochizuki' hanging on the door?" Ta Yayuki was puzzled.

"It's a long story. Because of some reasons at home and work, we kept our names anonymous for a period of time. Mochizuki was the surname we used before."

"Then you moved here now?"

"Yeah, we just finished our last job and will live here from now on."

"That's really great. In the future, when you want to find someone to play chess and drink tea, you can walk around each other at any time." Taya Yukiyo looked very happy, with a pleasant smile on his face all the time.

"Yes, Xiao Liang can often come to Tianyin to play."

"Okay, Uncle Tangerine."

"Where does Xiaoyin go to school? I heard that you have been studying in the United States. I wonder what your plans are when you return to Japan?"

"I'm not going to school now, and I plan to do some things I'm interested in for the time being."

"Like what?"

"Go online, play games, read manga, sing songs... play computer." Tianyin replied with some hesitation.

"Really? Mom and Dad support you very much!!!" Before the person who asked the question had any reaction, Dad Ju rushed to Tianyin and said with a moved face.

"Yes, it's best to do nothing, so as not to die too many brain cells. You can delete the item of 'playing' the computer, don't be too tired." I fully understand how heavy the workload of my daughter's "work mode" is. After the amount and intensity, Mama Ju also hopes that Xiaoyin can play more, and it doesn't matter if she can play for a lifetime. The results of her work and the wealth brought by these results have long surpassed the amount that most outstanding people can achieve in a lifetime, and They believe that Xiaoyin can become famous even if she just plays.The Taya family didn't think so.Those who don't know much about the situation think that Tianyin, who has such an outstanding temperament and manner, must be the result of receiving "Miss training" since she was a child, that is, the state of a virtuous and traditional woman waiting to be married... Although she is a little younger now, she is only 14 years old. You can get engaged, Liang is 15 years old this year, and he can get married in three years, but an uneducated daughter-in-law is not very good after all, and it involves the issue of educating children in the future...

"You are young, so you really should study hard. Xiaoliang is now in the second grade of junior high school, and will be in the third grade in April next year. Do you want Xiaoyin to go to school with Xiaoliang in Neptune?"

"Thank you Uncle Taya for your kindness. I have been used to home education and self-study since I was a child, so I don't really want to go to school. There will be work to do next year, so now I plan to take a break and prepare for a new challenge."

"What kind of job is it?"

"Computer programming and some music..."

"Huh?! Why haven't we heard of this!" ×2 From Xiaoyin's parents...

"It sounds very good, let me enjoy your music someday." As if approving the answer, Ta Yayuki said with a smile.

"Okay, Uncle Taya." She smiled politely.

The two families talked and laughed for a long time, and after lunch at Taya's house, Taya Yukiyo began to ask about Tianyin's situation again.

"Tianyin, my Xiaoliang and I are both professional Go players. Your father was also a professional Go player. I wonder if you can play Go?"

"I know a little bit, but I hardly played chess when I was studying in the United States. I have regressed a lot, and now I don't dare to play chess with others rashly."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you can, you can let Xiaoliang teach you even if you can't. Go to the chess room next to you to play chess, and we elders can have a good chat."

"Okay, father. Jusang, this way please."

"Taya-kun can call me by my name, otherwise it's hard to tell who I'm calling."

"Okay, Tianyin-san. You can also call me by my first name."

"Okay, Mr. Liang."

Although the two called each other by first name, they still politely used honorifics, "Sang/Jun" never left their mouths, Ta Yaliang was because his own family education was too good and strict, and Tian Yin was because seeing Ta Yaliang like this was in his heart. angry.

When he arrived at the chess room, Ta Yaliang went straight to the chessboard and knelt down, really planning to play chess.And Tianyin watched silently as the younger sister picked up a cushion, took it to the wall in the corner, and slowly stretched her legs to sit on it.

"I'm tired of kneeling in kimono all the time. Please allow me to take a break. If you don't mind, you can come and chat with me." It's too hypocritical to say this after sitting down, Tianyin complained to herself.

"Okay." Liang was a little surprised that he didn't refuse, then he also picked up the cushion, and sat next to Tianyin... [-] centimeters away, he imitated her and sat down against the wall.

"Are you really 'Mochizuki'-san who appeared in the courtyard that day?"

"Yes, nothing wrong."

"Sorry, I was just surprised to meet you twice, you have changed a lot."

"Well, I was a little tired and not in a good state of mind at the time, and it's normal to be a little bit different from what I am now."

"Does Tianyin-san like playing Go?"

"I don't know, but I know I don't want to play now."

"Why? Because the opponent is me? Still not in the mood to play chess?"

"It's all. I haven't played chess for several years, and my hands are terrible. Like everyone, I hate losing." I don't like playing chess that is meaningless or will cause trouble to the upper body. Supplement in heart.

After understanding what Tianyin meant, Liang had no choice but to change the subject.

"Has Tianyinsang never been to school?"

"I went to school in the United States, but because I was too busy during school, I can't remember all the things." I didn't remember all my classmates (no time to deal with people), the whole picture of the school (no time to take a walk)...

"What kind of school is it?"

"It's very interesting, it's everywhere... Well, weird schools, maybe others will think I'm weird too." After a moment of hesitation, she replied.

"Mr. Liang probably plays chess in addition to going to school. What's your goal?" Xiaoyin decided to ask questions by herself in order not to be asked questions that were difficult to answer.

"Yes, I go to play chess when I have games, and I am an ordinary middle school student when I don't have games. The goal... is to become a chess player surpassing my father, and to be able to comprehend the hand of God." Although there were some hesitation when answering, but When he said the last sentence, the sudden change in his eyes still moved Tianyin's heart.

"Sure enough, he is a persistent child..."

"Besides career, do you have any expectations for your family and life?" After asking Xiaoyin, she also felt very embarrassed, as if she was reviewing his marriage partner.

"This... I don't know, I'm sorry, all I can think about is how to play chess better." Ashamed, Xiao Liang lowered his head.

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Liang is so considerate of others and he is so persistent in his goals, I am very envious." Tianyin said still smiling.

"Tianyinsang must also know that our parents hope that we can get married in the future. I don't know what Tianyinsang thinks about this issue?"

"Huh? It's very difficult for Mr. Liang to ask me like this, not to mention that we are still young now, shouldn't this kind of question be the first for boys to express their thoughts?"

"This... sorry, I am also very embarrassed about this matter." Ta Yaliang's eyes drooped.

Taya Yukihiro thought that Liang, who was obsessed with Go, had no time to think about the issue of love for his children. It would be too stupid to have such a good ready-made daughter-in-law, so he told Liang that he must marry Tachibana Tianyin.At this time, Liang is obsessed with the promise he made with "Mariya" who "beat" him when he was a child, and feels that he should find a like-minded woman who can at least understand him as a wife, while Tianyin's performance is obviously not very interested in Go , let alone have any decent chess skills.

"Then Mr. Liang means that he wants to reject this marriage? If so, I can help you."

'With his cooperation here, you can reject this marriage very smoothly, and if you beat him fiercely on the chessboard, your future life will have nothing to do with him at all! ' My heart was so happy and gloomy in a blink of an eye. 'Doesn't it mean that you dislike me for not being good enough? !How dare you despise me even if you are a little bitch, it would be a loss not to abuse you! '

"Please don't get me wrong, I just think that someone like me who only knows how to focus on Go might be very boring..." Ta Yaliang's expression was still gentle and polite, and there was a faint apology in the unfinished words.

Doesn't it mean that you despise me? !Also emphasize again why!

"Then Mr. Liang is going to think about it later, or just refuse because his parents can't put pressure on him?" The smiling Tianyin asked again bluntly.

'How do I know what you mean if you don't tell me!The Japanese speak "subtly" so disgusting! '

"We're still too young, why don't we get along for a while, I don't know what Tianyin-sang thinks?" Ta Yaliang just replied euphemistically, he was used to being gentle and indifferent on the surface, and he didn't even think about his way of speaking. How will be understood by the other party.

"Okay." On his face was the calm but "gentle" smile that had been on his face since he entered the room, looking extremely gentle.

'It's actually eating what's in the bowl and thinking about what's in the pot!Taya Ryo!You are ruthless! Tianyin, who was roaring in her heart, wished she could delete all the good impressions she had of Taya Ryo, and only blamed herself for having a good memory.

At this time, Tian Yin, who was eagerly hoping that Ta Yaliang would "dump" herself, did not think that his answer was to take care of her self-esteem and the expectations of her parents.
