Regardless of whether the scale of the gestures made by Hong Xiu's fingers is large or small, in the eyes of Luo Baobao, who has been practicing boxing since he was three years old and five years old, this is a treasure.
It was the treasure she dug out from Aunt Hongxiu!
"Aunt Hongxiu, let's go to the backyard and sign."
Hong Xiu looked up at the sky. The light snow kept falling. A layer fell on their heads and shoulders, and the ground gradually turned white.
"But, it's snowing and the ground is slippery..."
"It won't matter if it snows. Let's compete in the snow. The snowflakes are dancing, which makes it even more impressive." Luo Baobao is already gearing up.
Hongxiu smiled and said, "That's okay, my aunt will practice with you."
The two went to the small bamboo forest in the backyard to spar.
No weapons, just bare hands.
From time to time, noises were heard coming into the kitchen. Wang Cuilian stood at the window of the backyard, peeling garlic, and kept looking out.
"It's snowing so hard, and the two of them went out to fight. It's hard to say whether they will be injured or not. What will happen if they catch a cold later?"
Yang Ruoqing was cooking and laughed when she heard this.
"Auntie, that's not a fight, it's a competition of martial arts."
"Oh, I think it's pretty much the same. It's all about beating back and forth."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and shook her head, concentrating on chopping the duck in her hand.
This shelduck was given by Zhou Wang's cousin two years ago. At that time, he sent three shelducks, three teal ducks, three geese, and a basket of fresh duck and goose eggs.
In terms of meat texture and nutritional value, shelduck is superior to teal.
So Yang Ruoqing and Wang Cuilian discussed that they would use shelduck for the New Year's Eve dinner and for other family meals.
When guests come in the first month, they eat water ducks.
Teal is not bad either. Teal is also an excellent delicacy for entertaining guests, but it is slightly lacking compared to shelduck.
So for tonight’s New Year’s Eve dinner, there are two hard dishes in the menu, namely steamed shelduck with a thousand sheets, and goose stewed in an iron pot.
Qianzhang Steamed Shelduck is not spicy, but the emphasis is on freshness.
The goose stewed in an iron pot is spicy and spicy.
At that time, Zhou Wang sent so many things as New Year's gifts, and Blacksmith Luo, who was his uncle, naturally would not treat his nephew badly.
When Zhou Wang left, he also took away three large grass carps. The smallest one weighed three and a half kilograms. In addition, there were five or six kilograms of large river shrimps, more than ten kilograms of hairy fish and crushed shrimps.
The hairy fish and crushed shrimps were brought back by Zhou Wang to fatten up the chickens, ducks and geese in the chicken farm.
Therefore, to put it bluntly, the movement between relatives is a matter of coming and going and reciprocating courtesy.
If you always want to take advantage and don't want to suffer, then this kind of relationship will not last long, even if you are biological sisters.
Only by giving to each other and tolerating each other can such kinship relationships be maintained for a long time.
"Don't worry, aunt, they both have a sense of what they do."
"Auntie, come here and help me see if there is enough salt in the shelduck?"
Yang Ruoqing could do it with her eyes closed, as to how much salt to put in the dish.
The purpose of deliberately calling Wang Cuilian to come over and help her make up her mind was to stop her from looking at the window.
For a layman, seeing two martial arts practitioners sparring together, one with a long punch and the other with a whip and kick, would inevitably be frightening.
This is similar to what drivers and people who don’t know how to drive feel when they see a car speeding down the road.
If you know how to drive, you will know that the control of speed and direction is entirely between your hands and feet, and you will be able to control it with ease.
For those who don’t know how to drive, when they see the car starting to move and the four wheels spinning out of shape in the sun, they will be so frightened that their legs will become weak, and they will feel that the car is going crazy and will lose control and hit everything at any time.
In fact, whether it is sparring or driving, if you understand it, you will understand it.
When Wang Cuilian was called out by Yang Ruoqing, she understood her intention. This was because she was afraid that she would be worried.
Wang Cuilian smiled without revealing it. She returned to the pot and took a look at the amount of salt. "Almost, just right."
"Sure, then I'll get in the pot and start frying."
"Okay, I'll help you stuff the firewood."
The pots and pans in the kitchen were making up a pleasant music. In the small bamboo forest in the backyard, Hongxiu and Luo Baobao were also having fun. The snowflakes above their heads were flying, and two graceful figures were flying back and forth in the bamboo forest, leaving behind a trail of Strings of light and shadow.
The atmosphere of life of firewood, rice, oil and salt and the passion of joyful rivers and lakes, on such a New Year's Eve afternoon, amidst the sound of firecrackers far and near, they perfectly blended together.
When Yang Ruoqing carried a bucket of swill to the backyard to empty it, she glanced at the small bamboo forest.
Bao Baobao has a solid foundation in martial arts. He has inherited Luo Fengtang's style of opening, closing, and attacking steadily to prevent the opponent from finding flaws. At the same time, he is not rigidly rigid. When a frontal confrontation fails to achieve the expected effect, he will She immediately used those tricky tricks that Yang Ruoqing taught her.
If he fights with all his strength, Yang Ruoqing has no chance of winning now. He can probably win at a score of 40 or 6.
Luo Baobao's biggest flaw is that she has solid training but little actual combat. Because she has little actual combat, she is now in a bottleneck period.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why she is eager to go to the battlefield and kill with real swords and guns to improve herself.
As for Hong Xiu, her martial arts style is relatively soft.
There is a move that looks gentle and affectionate like water waves, but underneath the gentleness is something dangerous and murderous.
In terms of basic skills, Hong Xiu may not be as solid as Luo Baobao, and he does not have parents like Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing to guide him.
But Hongxiu has good talent, practices hard, is several years older than Luo Baobao, and has rich practical experience.
I went around the Yama Hall and came back several times. The most serious time was when I was stabbed in the shoulder and almost broke my neck. That time, Hongxiu lay in bed for two months...
So Yang Ruoqing thinks it's very good for two people to learn from each other and learn from each other's strengths.
Moreover, if Hongxiu comes to help persuade Luo Baobao to stay and not go to the military camp, it will definitely arouse Luo Baobao's resistance and disgust.
Like this, first make friends with Baby Luo, attract Baby Luo from all aspects, and gain her approval, and then throw out your rope little by little and let Baby Luo get into the trap on his own.
Finally, let Baobao Luo take the initiative to change his mind and stay, great, great!
Hongxiu, you must give me Oli. Sister, I count on you for the happiness of my family.
Yang Ruoqing, who was in a good mood, felt windy when she walked. After pouring the swill, she hurried back to the kitchen to cook delicious dishes and treat them to the New Year's Eve dinner.
Blacksmith Luo was checking the lanterns and candles in the front room and backyard. From tonight to the third day of the Lunar New Year, the lights at home would be lit all night long.
Blacksmith Luo had to check in advance and reject any possibility of fire.
In addition, he also filled several large wooden barrels with water and placed them in many corners of the yard, just in case of fire.
