After the beginning of spring, two happy events came to the alley. One was the introduction of tap water into the house. It will be much more convenient to use water in the future. There is no need to go to the public faucet to collect water and store it. The big water tank at home can also be removed. This thing is tiring.

It takes up space again.

The other is that the Youth Cultural Palace has added a new department - the Children's Palace, which is equivalent to free extracurricular training classes for parents with working parents. During the Sunday holiday, they can finally have a quiet day.

Since it was recruiting children from all over the city, and at first only two classes, vocal music and dance, were open to enrollment, the entrance to the Children's Palace was crowded early in the morning with parents lining up to sign up with their children.

Song Ying and Huang Ling were no exception, and naturally Qin Hao, Lin Dongzhe, and Zhuang Xiaoting also followed behind them.

Regarding the Children's Palace, Zhuang Xiaoting was full of expectations, while Lin Dongzhe was indifferent. Qin Hao just wanted to be eliminated quickly.

The thought of him having to sing and dance with a bunch of children really brought him down. If Song Ying hadn't insisted again and again, he should be sleeping at home right now.

"Brother Hao, do you want to do vocal music or dance?" Lin Dongzhe asked Qin Hao, grabbing the corner of his clothes. As Qin Hao's die-hard follower, he would naturally go wherever Qin Hao goes.

"I'm not sure whether I can choose it. Let's take a look first and then decide." Qin Hao said casually.

While the two were talking, Song Ying and Huang Ling had already signed up and received their number plates. The three of them just waited for their numbers to be called.

"Mom, where is the toilet? I want the toilet."

Song Ying rolled her eyes at Lin Dongzhe: "It's such a lazy donkey that makes a lot of shit and pee."

"Aunt Song, let me take Lin Dongzhe there. I just want to relieve myself."

"Okay, then you go and come back quickly. If you call the number, you will be considered as giving up." Song Ying did not forget to remind her.

"Um."

Qin Hao took Lin Dongzhe to find the toilet, bypassing groups of parents and children, and finally found the toilet inside the Children's Palace.

After using the toilet, Qin Hao was about to take Lin Dongzhe back from the original route, but Lin Dongzhe said that he wanted to visit the Children's Palace and had to go out by another road.

Qin Hao thought about it, it would be better if he missed the number call, which would save him having to work hard to fool the teacher at the Children's Palace.

The two of them wandered along and unknowingly came to a pavilion. Looking over from a distance, they saw a group of teenagers sitting in pairs with a square plate in front of them.

"Brother Hao, what are they doing there?" Lin Dongzhe asked curiously.

"Go."

"What kind of chess is Go? Brother Hao, can you play it?"

"A little bit."

Lin Dongzhe tilted his head and thought for a while: "Brother Hao, you say you only know a little bit of everything, but in fact you are very good at everything. The same goes for this Go game, right?"

Seeing that Qin Hao remained silent, Lin Dongzhe became even more curious and ran towards the pavilion quickly.

Seeing this, Qin Hao had no choice but to follow him and warned, "Just take a look at it later. Don't yell. Noise is the most taboo in Go."

"Oh." Lin Dongzhe covered his mouth to show that he would not cause trouble.

Just as Qin Hao and Lin Dongzhe approached, they were stopped by a middle-aged man.

"Children, are you here to participate in the selection of the Go Youth Class? Where is your teacher?"

Lin Dongzhe's big eyes flickered: "Selection of Go youth class? Doesn't the Children's Palace only recruit students for two classes: vocal music and dance?"

The middle-aged man explained patiently: "Vocal music and dance are open to children from all over the city, and there is no threshold. However, things like Go and mathematics have thresholds and require a certain foundation. Therefore, they are recommended by each primary school, and then strictly conducted.

Only through selection can you get there.”

"This is unfair." Lin Dongzhe said angrily after hearing this.

The middle-aged man was amused: "So, you are very good at Go?"

"I won't do it." Lin Dongzhe shook his head seriously, and then sold Qin Hao directly.

"But Brother Hao knows how to play Go. He is very good at playing Go."

The middle-aged man became interested: "Oh, how awesome is it?"

"Anyway, I'm better than them all." Lin Dongzhe glanced at the group of children playing chess, and he had the attitude: everyone sitting here is rubbish.

The middle-aged man looked at Qin Hao suspiciously: "Are you really good at playing Go?"

"I know a little bit." As soon as Qin Hao finished speaking, Lin Dongzhe folded his arms, raised his chin and said with a proud face: "Brother Hao said he knows a little bit, that means he is very powerful."

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, walked to the pavilion, and whispered to an old man in his fifties.

After a long time, the middle-aged man walked up to Qin Hao.

"What's your name? Which school do you belong to? I'll find someone to play a game with you to see if your foundation is good. If your foundation is not bad, I'll make an exception and recruit you into our youth Go class."

"His name is Qin Hao, he is in Class 3, Grade 1 of the attached elementary school." Lin Dongzhe answered impatiently.

Qin Hao thought, as long as it's not a vocal class or a dance class, let's go to Go, at least it can be quieter.

"Wang Yang, come here."

The middle-aged man took Qin Hao to a table, and then called a boy of twelve or thirteen years old.

"You play the next game with him."

"Okay, Teacher Liu."

Wang Yang looked at Qin Hao for a few times, then reached out and grabbed a handful of white stones from the chess box.

Lin Dongzhe was confused. Teacher Liu on the side was also tireless in teaching and explained: "This is called grabbing and guessing. The player with a higher rank will grab a handful of white stones, and then the player with a lower rank will guess the chess pieces in his hand.

Is it an odd number or an even number? If you guess the odd number, put one black stone on the board. If you guess the even number, put two black stones on the board. If you guess correctly, you will take black first, if you guess wrong, you will take white."

"Brother Hao, he must be in the odd number."

Wang Yang glared at Lin Dongzhe dissatisfied, and Teacher Liu made a silent gesture: "A true gentleman watches chess without speaking. When the two sides are playing chess, others cannot speak, as it will interfere with their thinking."

Lin Dongzhe then calmed down.

Qin Hao casually took a black stone and placed it on the chessboard.

Wang Yang put down all the white stones in his hand, and the result was an even number.

"Then Wang Yang will take the black lead."

Wang Yang picked up a sunspot and neatly placed it on the star in the upper right corner.

Lin Dongzhe looked at Wang Yang's movements and felt a sense of beauty inexplicably.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Hao followed casually: Point three three.

Teacher Liu nodded slightly when he saw this. Judging from Qin Hao's hand gestures and his position, he should have at least some basic knowledge of Go.

Soon the two sides had played more than thirty moves, and the expression on Wang Yang's face gradually changed from disdain at the beginning, to surprise, surprise, and now solemnity.

Teacher Liu also looked at Qin Hao with some surprise. Others didn't know Wang Yang's strength, but he knew it clearly. He was one of the best in the Go junior class. He could play more than thirty moves with Wang Yang and still be so anxious.

Yes, there are not many in the entire Go junior class.

Moreover, Qin Hao looks only ten years old. Go is a sport that requires a lot of talent. The younger you are, the better your talent is, and the greater your potential in the future.

Just when Qin Hao and Wang Yang had played about a hundred hands, the children around them had basically finished playing, and they gathered around to watch. Even the old man who had been sitting in the pavilion leisurely drinking tea came over.

The old man first bowed and glanced casually, but soon he said "Huh".

Just when Teacher Liu looked at the old man in surprise, Wang Yang suddenly grabbed a handful of black stones and placed them on the chessboard.

Lin Dongzhe immediately shouted: "He is cheating by placing so many chess pieces at once."

The children watching burst into laughter.

The old man rubbed Lin Dongzhe's head and explained with a smile: "He is giving up and admitting defeat, not cheating."

Lin Dongzhe grinned widely when he heard this: "Yeah, Brother Hao won, I'll just say that Brother Hao is very good."

Those who didn't know it looked at his posture and thought he had won.

Wang Yang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said to Qin Hao: "I was careless just now, let's play again."

Qin Hao shook his head: "I have to go back. Aunt Song should be anxious now."

With that said, Qin Hao took the reluctant Lin Dongzhe and prepared to leave.

Teacher Liu quickly stopped Qin Hao: "Qin Hao, right? You are welcome to join our Go youth class."

At this moment, Song Ying's loud voice came from behind: "Lin Dongzhe, you fool are running around again. The selection is coming to you soon. Why don't you come back with me to participate in the selection?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Dongzhe quickly pushed Qin Hao out as a shield: "Mom, I didn't run around. I'm playing Go with Brother Hao here."

"Go? Does Haozi know how to play Go?" Song Ying blinked.

Teacher Liu walked up to Song Ying with a smile on her face: "Hello, are you Qin Hao's mother? I am the teacher of the Go Junior Class in the Children's Palace. My name is Liu Hong. Your son is very talented in Go..."

Before Teacher Liu could finish speaking, Song Ying pointed at Lin Dongzhe with an embarrassed look on her face: "Teacher Liu, this is my son, Haozi is the child of my friend."

This time, Teacher Liu was also embarrassed.

"Aunt Song is my guardian." Qin Hao's words relieved everyone's embarrassment.

Song Ying heard a lot of things from Teacher Liu, which were a bit confusing. She was completely dismissive of Go until Teacher Liu said that if Qin Hao performed well, he would have the opportunity to represent Suzhou in the National Children's Go Competition.

"Teacher Liu, I'll leave Hao Zi to you."

"Ms. Song, please rest assured that I will do my best to train this child."
