It was still early for lunch. Lu Zheng handed the lunch box containing a family meal to Xiaocui, asking her to heat it up at lunchtime.
Turning back, Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying were already seated under the peach tree, sorting the Go pieces, preparing to start a new game.
In the front yard of Taohua Village, with this large peach tree present, it really was like a verdant shade hiding the sky and blocking out the sun. The dappled sunlight cast down, bringing a cool yet warm feeling, truly comfortable.
Under the peach tree, the stone table was directly carved into a Go board pattern, with thirty-eight straight lines interwoven, horizontal and vertical.
Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan sat opposite each other, sorting out the black and white pieces.
"Sister, please start!"
"Then I won't be polite."
The two first placed two black and two white pieces on the star points, then Liu Qingyan took the white and started the game by approaching the corner.
