In the next few days, Xu Yin has been tinkering with the new hair pusher, but she has not neglected to teach Wei Lai and the others how to do it.
Since she called her master, she still had to teach.
Let them gather at her place before seven o'clock every morning. They live far away from each other, so running here is enough to warm up. After arriving, they can press their legs and stretch their muscles, and then start practicing from the most basic Zama Step.
Other workers in the ranch heard that this was Chinese Kung Fu and asked Xu Yin if they could learn it together.
Xu Yin was quite helpless. Is this the rhythm of starting classes?
However, she didn't think they could persist until the coldest month of winter. At most, they were just curious. They might give up on their own initiative after getting up a few times early.
The colder the weather, the harder it is to get up early. Practicing martial arts requires perseverance.
Sure enough, as Xu Yin expected, within a week, those who gathered on time at seven o'clock were back to the four friends from the beginning.
However, Ila will return to Christchurch at the end of the summer vacation, and she can only learn it for a month. Xu Yin will teach her self-defense alone. As for Willie, Oliva, and Lucas, they should teach her step by step starting from basic skills, martial arts moves. , it depends on their understanding, how many tricks they can learn.
Practice for an hour in the morning. Breakfast is served in the pasture at eight o'clock. After breakfast, Xu Yin will start her day's work - tying wool in the morning, sweeping the yard and working as a hair pusher in the afternoon. After dinner, if they are interested, they can come over and practice for an additional hour. . If not, she would knit sweaters in her room.
She bought several kilograms of cashmere and wool thread in Queenstown, and planned to knit some sweaters for herself when she had nothing to do.
The ready-to-wear clothes sold in Queenstown are all pullovers. She wants to knit two cashmere cardigans for herself, which can be worn over a stand-up collared shirt with earrings in spring and autumn. They are fashionable and comfortable.
It can be said that every day is very fulfilling.
Old William heard that his granddaughter was learning self-defense skills from Xu Yin, and after a few days of learning, she was able to practice well, so he asked his younger son to bring a young goat over.
Seeing the meat goat, Xu Yin remembered that she still owed her friend a roasted whole lamb.
It’s better to choose a day than to hit it, let’s do it today!
She packed up the sheep, marinated them first, and then roasted them in the evening.
"Weilai, Ila, come to my place for dinner tonight! It's time to fulfill the promise of roasting the whole lamb to you."
"I will definitely come on time!" Willie did not forget what he said before, "I will bring a basket of lettuce."
"What about me? Do you need me to bring anything?" Ila asked.
Xu Yin smiled and said, "Didn't you already send a sheep over?"
Ila blinked: That was the tuition fee given by grandpa.
When she returned, Old William slaughtered another young sheep and asked his granddaughter to bring it over.
Mrs. Hunter understood that Old William was specifically thanking Sean, and asked the cook to make jerky sticks for Sean to keep as snacks.
The jerky that local people like to eat is a bit like yak jerky. Cut into strips, marinate and bake until there is no moisture left, making it easier to store. It tastes good when chewed, but it's hard and hard on the teeth.
The sheep bones that were picked out were not wasted, and they were made into soup stock to stew potatoes, and the sheep offal was smoked. Thanks to Sean, the food at the ranch was good for the next few days.
When the mayor asked his youngest son to come to eat roasted whole lamb, he brought a large basket of fruits over.
He had seen his youngest son running to the Hunter family ranch before. He thought that after going to Queenstown, the brat had fallen in love with Sean, and he was secretly worried.
Although he also likes Sean very much and has no objection to his son marrying a foreign girl, he thinks that the visa in Sean's hand is only for four years. When the time comes to return to her hometown, what will his son do? Let him go with you, as a parent would be reluctant to let him go! Are you not going to let him go and just watch them separate?
Worry! It’s so frustrating!
He told his wife this concern with a grimace.
After hearing this, the mayor's wife laughed so much that her stomach ached: "Dear, you are thinking too much! Have you gone to Hunter's house to see your son learning Chinese Kung Fu from Sean? You must not have seen it, right? Then follow him and have a look, you You won’t have this trouble anymore.”
"..."
Chinese Kung Fu? Isn't that an excuse for my son to be with Sean?
The mayor got up early, drove a pickup truck and followed his young son who was running to Hunter Ranch, and went to Hunter Farm to find out what was going on.
It's a bit like the parent open days of later generations - parents come to school to watch their children in class.
"Willie, tighten your toes! Like me!"
When Xu Yin taught them how to bounce their legs, she demonstrated it again.
Both Oliva and Lucas have mastered it, but Willie is still awkwardly stretching his toes.
Mayor: "..."
The old face can't stand it anymore, and I hate that iron cannot become steel.
This was completely different from the picture he imagined.
Brat! You can't even stretch your toes? What else can you do?
At this moment, the mayor would rather that his youngest son acted so stupidly because he liked Sean, deliberately hid his clumsiness, and wanted to attract her attention. However, I know the truth better than anyone else - the brat has been lacking in sports since he was a child. nerve.
Looking at the silly boy, he said to the left - "Master, is this posture correct?" and to the right - "Master, did I do it right this time?", his words were full of admiration, as if he regarded Sean as a teacher and a teacher. martial arts master.
Mayor: "..."
How could his heart be more melancholy than when he misunderstood that his son liked Sean?
Fortunately, although the silly boy lacks talent, he is more than diligent. After practicing for a period of time, both his physique and temperament have improved.
In the past, because of my height, I was a little hunched at a young age, but now I have a tall and straight body. I used to look thin, but I was actually weak. Now I still look thin, but my body bones are much stronger.
This made the mayor and his wife happy and at the same time very grateful to Xu Yin.
This season is the harvest season for fruits in New Zealand. The mayor filled a basket full of high-quality fruits that he has personally inspected and asked his son to bring them over.
Xu Yin likes this teacher-appreciation gift very much: apples, cherries, grapes, blueberries, kiwis... are all her favorites to eat, and these fruits are all varieties with mature local planting technology.
Especially the kiwi fruit, it is said that it was improved after the Chinese kiwi fruit was introduced. However, due to the large temperature difference between morning and night in New Zealand, the kiwi fruit that grows are large and sweet, and it is particularly enjoyable to eat.
However, not all of the fruits that Willati brought were grown by his family.
His family only grows apples and kiwis, and buys the rest from the farmer next door.
Xu Yin couldn't help but think of the small world while eating the big cherries grown by professional farmers.
It would be great if she had a piece of land. She would like to grow cherries, grapes, blueberries, kiwis... she would like to grow them all.
New Zealand's climate is particularly friendly to berry fruits. The taste of the same fruit seedlings grown in China and here will be very different.
If the high-quality dwarf cherry trees in her system warehouse are grafted with local cherry mother plants, I wonder how rich the taste can be grown.
But for now, she can only think about it. Not to mention that there is no land to buy in this area. Even if there is land, the savings on hand are not enough for her.
