Chapter 125 Duomei also wants to learn boxing
It had been raining for three days straight, and the water level in the reservoir was changing every day. The surrounding muddy ground was also soaked with water. If you stepped on it, you would sink up to your calf, and even wearing rain boots was useless.
Although the ground is difficult to walk on, it is best to catch fish when the water level rises. Therefore, in the past few days, people have been catching fish in reservoirs and ditches every day. Buckets of fish are brought home. The larger ones are taken to the market to sell, and the smaller ones are killed directly and then dried in a large iron pot.
Gao Mingcheng's home was filled with the smell of fish and the aroma of dried fish.
Baking dried fish is also a technical job. You must control the heat well. If the fire is too high, the fish will easily burn and turn black and bitter, affecting the taste.
If the fire is too small, the fish will not dry easily.
The heat must be just right, enough to dry the fish without burning it.
There is one thing you need to pay attention to when baking dried fish, that is, you cannot turn the dried fish over frequently. One side must be baked relatively dry so that it will not stick to the iron pan before you can turn it over, otherwise the fish will be broken.
Gao Mingcheng can't do this delicate job, but it doesn't matter, he has a wife now!
Even though his wife can be quite aggressive sometimes, she is good at doing housework both at home and outside.
Gao Mingcheng only went out to catch fish, while Xuanyuemei was in charge of killing and drying the fish at home.
When Gao Mingcheng felt that there were not many fish in the reservoir, he stopped catching them.
You have to leave some fish to reproduce naturally, so that there will be no end to the family. Besides, there are more than 30 kilograms of dried fish at home, and there are 20 to 30 palm-sized crucian carps in the big bathtub.
These crucian carps can be kept like this and eaten fresh slowly.
By the afternoon, the incessant drizzle finally stopped, and the sky cleared up after the rain. A bright sun illuminated the sky, and the brightness of the whole world was instantly brightened.
The air was also exceptionally fresh. Looking at the good weather, Gao Mingcheng became eager to move.
Because of the rain, he hasn't gone to the mountainside to practice boxing for a few days. As the saying goes, keep your fists on your hands and your songs on your lips. If you don't do this habit, your body will feel something is wrong, and you have to practice a set of boxing properly to release the suppressed strength.
Gao Mingcheng did not run to the middle of the mountain, but practiced boxing directly in his own yard. His yard was very large, but the ground had not been hardened yet, only some gravel was laid. It had rained for a few days, and there was a lot of water on the ground.
However, Gao Mingcheng's lower body was very stable, and after he threw a set of punches, he showed no signs of slipping and falling.
Many beauties stood under the eaves, looking in amazement at the strong man practicing boxing in the yard.
As an eyewitness, many people knew how much energy and strength were contained in that young body, but this was the first time they watched Gao Mingcheng practice boxing.
After just watching it once, many beauties' eyes on Gao Mingcheng changed, and they became like little fans.
Gao Mingcheng naturally noticed many beautiful changes and felt secretly proud.
In his previous life, ever since he learned boxing and other kung fu from a famous teacher, he practiced diligently every day without missing a beat. It was not until he was in his forties, when his physical condition declined and he had many social engagements every day, that he stopped practicing boxing.
But after being reborn, he practiced boxing almost every day, and because of the existence of gold foil, his physical fitness was much better than in his previous life.
The same boxing technique will produce different effects when performed with different physical qualities.
When a weak person boxs, his hands and feet become weak and his movements become slow.
When a strong man punches, every punch hits the flesh, and the variations are endless.
Gao Mingcheng practiced a set of boxing again in front of Xuanmei. This time, he deliberately slowed down his movements, but in Xuanmei's eyes, the switching between movements was still very fast, but she could barely see it clearly.
After another set of boxing was finished, Xuanyuemei said eagerly: "Mingcheng, please teach me how to box! I want to learn too!"
Because of her family background, Xuan Mei is actually very insecure. She longs to arm herself with strength so that she will not be bullied by others.
She knew that Gao Mingcheng was good at fighting, but she had never thought of learning fighting from Gao Mingcheng before. It was only after witnessing Gao Mingcheng practicing boxing that the idea of learning boxing from Gao Mingcheng took root in her heart and then grew vigorously.
"Okay!" Gao Mingcheng would naturally agree to Xuanyuemei's request, so he began to teach Xuanyuemei some basic training. The two of them performed various movements close to each other, which was also a unique experience.
Although Xuan Mei's cheeks blushed with shame and she suspected that Gao Mingcheng did it on purpose, when she glared at him, she saw that he had a serious expression and did not seem to be doing it on purpose.
So she coughed dryly, suppressed her messy thoughts, and concentrated on practicing boxing.
Gao Mingcheng naturally had no intention of teaching her the full set of boxing techniques, but she could intercept a few of the moves, such as the round hand, which could block any attack in front of her and effectively counterattack.
If someone attacks from behind and holds his hands, there is also a way to deal with it, first play tricks, then step hard on the opponent's toes, then raise your arms and hips, use this force to break free from the opponent's restraints, then kick the crotch or head, and leave quickly.
While teaching these movements, Gao Mingcheng made various assumptions, allowing many artists to clearly know what methods to use to solve problems under what circumstances. Many artists who listened felt refreshed.
In the past, when she fought with others, she would either grab people's hair, pinch their necks, or grab their eyes. She had no rules at all, just brute force.
"If it doesn't rain tomorrow, I will go to the mountains to pick out two suitable stones and make them into stone locks. Then I can build up my strength by practicing lifting the stone locks." Gao Mingcheng told his plan. Not only did he plan to make a stone lock, he also planned to make a ring that would allow him to practice his body flexibility.
Manyu Mei's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd after hearing this, and she said pitifully: "How heavy are you going to make the stone lock?"
She knew about stone locks. In fact, her father had also practiced stone locks when he was a child. However, when troubled times came, his hometown was burned down again. To make matters worse, her father was drafted into the army by some force when he was young, and he escaped back after going through many hardships.
Her father talked little about what happened later, but he remembered clearly the things that happened when he was a child and young adult, and often told them to his four daughters.
In an age without entertainment, the elderly telling stories to children was a way to pass the time.
Not only does it help to kill time, but the younger generation also learns about the past of their elders, and those experiences, good or bad. As a result, the image of parents becomes more important in the eyes of their children.
Gao Mingcheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the many beautiful wrinkled little faces, and deliberately said: "Well, let's make one weighing 100 kilograms! Make a pair!"
The expressions on many beautiful faces fell instantly.
One hundred pounds?
Another pair?
She definitely can't lift it!
