C18

Lu Jinghui was a frequent visitor to Lord Protector Yi's residence in his early days. Even though they had not seen each other for many years, he was still recognized by the servants of Lord Protector Yi's residence.

Lu Jinghui waved his hand and gave Lu Jinnian a look indicating that she should follow him. He then followed behind the person who had gone to report to him, directly going to find Lord Protector Lao Yi. As soon as the person knocked on the door, Lu Jinghui yelled, "Lao Yi, this old man is looking at you!"

Lord Protector Lao Yi was leaning on the bed and reading a book. When he heard the voice, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I heard your voice from far away. As expected, I heard that you have been back to the ancestral land for the past few years." "No matter how much you plow the fields, it still hasn't worn down your temper."

Lu Jinghui glanced at the empty leg of Lord Protector Lao Yi's pants. He sat opposite Lord Protector Lao Yi and put down the small table on the Eight Immortals Couch.

"I'm not as patient as you. As usual, let's have a talk first and see who is more patient. Today, I brought a helper over, so I don't believe that I can't win against you."

"Helper?" Lord Protector Lao Yi glanced at Lu Jinnian and Mu Qi. His aura was burning and his vision was cold and sharp. If it was a normal person, they would have long been trembling from the glare.

This was a valiant aura that only veterans who fought in the battlefield all year round possessed, and it was also the aura that Lu Jinnian was most familiar with. She smiled, unsurprised, as she bowed and cupped her hands, "Junior Lu Jinnian greets Grandpa Yi."

Mu Qi was an active Dark Guard in the dark. He only felt unwell towards Lord Protector Lao Yi's probing aura and shyly lowered his head. He was a part-time bodyguard.

Lord Protector Lao Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Lao Lu, this is your granddaughter?"

Lu Jinghui was very proud, "Otherwise."

"Not bad. Get out of my way. This old man doesn't want to mess with you. Let your granddaughter do it!"

"Lao Yi, I think you don't want to play chess, but fight!"

"Come on, who's afraid of who? Your martial arts are even taught to me by me!"

"…"

Lu Jinnian quickly found the chess board and chess box in Lord Protector Lao Yi's room and put them on the small table to avoid the two naughty kids from fighting each other.

"Grandfather, Grandpa Yi, two days ago, my granddaughter obtained an incomplete chess piece, but she still hasn't found a way to resolve it. Since both grandfathers love chess, why don't we break the board together?"

After listening to Lu Jinnian's suggestion, they looked at each other and refused to admit defeat, "Jiner's suggestion is not bad. It's fair to break the same board game. I'll definitely break it out before this old fogey and see who's the real loser!"

"Hmph, then let Jiner see which grandfather is stronger. Jiner, let me tell you, your grandfather isn't as sincere as you seem. Back then …"

"Shut up!" Lu Jinghui's face turned red, "Who hasn't reached the stage of being young and inexperienced?"

Lu Jinnian looked at the two of them in confusion. Seeing her grandfather so embarrassed, she didn't have the heart to ask and obediently played chess on the chessboard.

In her previous life, in order to conduct military operations, she had researched many military strategies and tactics. In order to come up with a strategy for the chess game, she had turned over quite a number of remnants of the game.

As the saying goes, the schemer must play chess, while the schemer may not. Whether it is Lord Protector Lao Yi or Lu Jinghui, both of them are experts in scheming, so a simple chess game would definitely not work.

The two games he had with Lu Jinghui last night, one won and one lost. Although Lu Jinnian purposely threw some water at her grandfather, it was not easy at all.

She also had a lot of modern learning skills, which was why she was the top student. Lord Protector Lao Yi's chess skills should be even better, right? Lu Jinnian gave it a rough estimate and then chose a perfect game to play.

Lord Protector Lao Yi couldn't hold it in anymore, so he started to dismantle Lu Jinghui's table. "Jiner, let me tell you, this old thing shouldn't look like he's being careless. He's actually plotting something."

Back then when I was recuperating from my injuries, I promoted him to be a deputy general so that he could observe the military camp. Back then when I was recuperating from my injuries, I promoted him to be a deputy general so that he could watch the military camp.

When I really couldn't solve the problem, I just bitterly studied the city calligraphy and secretly sent it to me. When I recovered, I discovered that this guy had tamed all the people in the barracks.

"You still have the nerve to say that to me? At that time, I was still a junior school guard, but you overtook so many experienced forward deputy marshals to promote me to be a deputy general. Even I suspect that you intentionally made me the target of public criticism."

"Later on, I was appointed by the late emperor as Great General, and you even ridiculed me for being the most talented among all the military generals. Among all the civil officials, I was the most skilled at waging war and I don't know my roots. Before I entered the military camp, I couldn't even write my name properly!"

Lord Protector Lao Yi laughed, "So what if he is? I heard that four years ago, the Huns invaded the school and the only one who managed to turn the tide is him."

Lu Jinnian's hands trembled, and she quickly put down the chess piece, "Grandfathers, granddaughters are ready."

Lord Protector Lao Yi glanced at Lu Jinnian, glanced at Lu Jinghui, and Lu Jinghui chuckled. "Lao Yi, let's get this over with."

At this time, Mrs Lord Protector Yi brought some refreshments over and smiled demurely, "Dad, please forgive my daughter-in-law for being impolite. Only then do I know that a guest has come to visit and to pay my respects."

Lord Protector Lao Yi nodded, "Stay in the garden and entertain the guests. Tell someone to bring some tea over, why would you want to come over yourself?"

Only then did Lu Jinghui remember, "This old man isn't some important guest, he's just a country bumpkin. Speaking of which, I almost forgot, this old man brought some local specialties, Mu Qi, bring it up for the Old Duke to have a stew."

Lu Jinnian facepalmed. No wonder her grandpa told Mu Qi to pack some sweet potato and radish before he left.

Lord Protector Lao Yi and you rolled out of the same trenches. They may not think much of it, but the current Lord Protector Yi has not been to the battlefield for many years, so he doesn't understand your simplicity. The Countess used to be a lady of a noble family, are you sure you won't be treated as someone who wants to cause trouble?

When Mu Qi was about to go get the sweet potato, he stood out and said, "Junior greets Mrs Yi. Grandfather is a wild crane at the farm, and he can occasionally dig out some herbs from the soil, so he's called a special product. In order to visit your family, he picked out a 100-year-old lingzhi root, which not only can heal your body, but also have the effect of beauty and beauty.

Mu Qi heard Lu Jinnian's words and immediately turned around to hand over the Lingzhi that Lu Jinnian told him to bring before they left.

Seeing Lu Jinnianqian being modest and polite, Mrs Yi smiled gently and generously, ordering people to take the Lingzhi from Mu Qi.

Lord Protector Lao Yi glanced at Lingzhi and then looked at the pile of sweet potato and radish in the corner. He immediately understood the whole situation and sighed with emotion, "Your granddaughter knows a lot more things than you."

Lu Jinghui, "..."
