Chapter 70 This Child is Very Good
The boxing gym was very quiet and the lighting was dim.
There was only the echo of the young man running.
Tang Xueli lifted the brim of her woolen hat, revealing a clearer face, and replied, "I'm here to learn boxing."
Yan Shouzhen nodded. He was not too surprised that Tang Xueli came to learn boxing.
He looked at Wang Dadao: "Who is this?"
Tang Xueli introduced: "My friend, Wang Dadao."
He doesn't look like a student. He has scars and bruises on his face, his posture is slumped and lazy, and his clothes are ill-fitting and dirty.
But his eyes are clear, so he shouldn't be a hooligan.
How could Tang Xueli have such a friend? Yan Shou was really curious, but he didn't ask.
He extended his hand politely, "Hello, Xiao Wang."
Wang Dadao was flattered and extremely flustered. He had never shaken hands with anyone so formally before.
Just now I heard the master call this person Teacher Yan, so I followed suit and called him Teacher.
"Hello, hello, hello, teacher." Wang Dadao rubbed his hands vigorously on his pants, "My hands are a little dirty, I'm so embarrassed."
Yan Shouzhen didn't mind these and shook hands with Wang Dadao in a friendly manner.
Tang Xueli said: "Teacher Yan is my homeroom teacher. She teaches us physics and Chinese."
Wang Dadao, who could barely read, became even more nervous when he heard this, and his fingers began to tremble.
He didn't even know what physics was.
"Well, Master... I'll go home first..."
Tang Xueli: "Are you tired?"
Wang Dadao stammered, "Ah, yes, I am a little tired."
Tang Xueli was slightly puzzled, "You don't even want to see the coach?"
"Next, let's do it next time..." Wang Dadao glanced at Yan Shouzhen, turned around and wanted to leave.
"Xiao Wang." Yan Shouzhen called him with a smile: "Are you afraid of me?"
Wang Dadao scratched his hair and didn't dare to look up at anyone.
Tang Xueli understood immediately and said with a smile: "Why are you afraid of him? You are not his student, he can't control you."
"I haven't been to school for many days, but I'm terrified of my teacher."
Wang Dadao felt that this might be innate and he couldn't control it. It was like a mouse seeing a cat and immediately wanting to pee in its pants.
Tang Xueli looked at Yan Shouzhen, who smiled at her and winked at her.
After all, the two had competed together and often discussed exercises, so they had developed some tacit understanding.
What he meant was that he wanted her to rest assured and leave Xiao Wang to him.
Tang Xueli understood, so she waited calmly on the side and continued to observe the cottage.
Yan Shouzhen gently put his arm around Wang Dadao's shoulders and walked with him forward, "Do you want to learn boxing?"
"I want to learn how to fight!" Wang Dadao immediately explained, "I don't want to hit anyone. I just don't want to be beaten or bullied. I want to protect my master."
"You already have a master?"
Yan Shouzhen was about to ask what your master taught you, but before he could finish his words, Wang Dadao pointed at Tang Xueli and said proudly, "She is my master!"
Yan Shouzhen: “…”
Tang Xueli heard the conversation between the two and turned to look over, "Yes, I am his master."
Yan Shouzhen smiled so hard that his eyebrows were curved, and he found it very interesting.
"So you are not only friends, but also master and apprentice."
"We are just master and disciple, just a master and disciple relationship." Wang Dadao felt that he was not worthy of being his master's friend.
Just now, when the master introduced them as friends, he wanted to correct it, but he just didn't find the right opportunity.
Yan Shouzhen didn't dwell on these things. He could see that Xiao Wang was a little timid and had low self-esteem.
He took Wang Dadao to a row of sandbags and said, "Let's try it."
"Ah?" Wang Dadao didn't quite understand.
He had never watched a boxing match and had only a very superficial understanding of boxing.
"Like this." Yan Shouzhen clenched his fist and hit the sandbag lightly.
With a dull thud, the sandbag was hit out and then swung slightly.
Wang Dadao followed suit and threw a punch, and the heavy sandbag was pushed out a little.
"This sack is so heavy!"
Yan Shouzhen pinched Wang Dadao's arm and said, "You are too thin. Your arms, legs and waist are weak. You just need to practice more in the future."
"Can I practice here?" Wang Dadao was no longer so nervous, but instead was excited.
Yan Shouzhen thought about it and said, "I'll discuss it with Coach He."
He Zongliang is sixty-five years old this year.
In the 1930s, he was brought to Haicheng to participate in professional boxing matches.
He is considered to be the earliest professional boxer in the country.
In addition to participating in formal competitions, he also performs in various cities and accepts challenges, and his appearance fees are considerable.
He Zongliang had a quick mind, quick reactions, was able to attack and defend, and was an extremely beautiful boxer, and he soon became a little star.
However, he doesn't care much about the praise and compliments from the outside world. He is obsessed with boxing itself.
After he stopped playing due to health reasons, he became a coach.
Later, the situation became bad and the boxing gym was closed for many years.
But he has always been secretly teaching students, after all, there will always be boxing enthusiasts!
Yan Shouzhen started learning boxing with He Zongliang when he was seven or eight years old. The two families had a very good relationship and often visited each other, so they had a long-standing friendship.
Hearing that Tang Xueli was a student in Yan Shouzhen's current class, He Zongliang thought for a moment and said slowly: "I usually don't let them bring people to the boxing gym. When there are too many people, there will inevitably be more trouble. Jing——"
Before he uttered the word "book", Yan Shouzhen coughed loudly, interrupting He Zongliang's words.
He Zongliang turned his head and asked, "What's wrong with your throat?"
"Maybe I caught a cold." Yan Shouzhen cleared his throat and said, "Coach He let you into the gym for my sake, so try not to cause trouble. If you do, the gym won't be able to keep you here any longer."
Tang Xueli nodded and promised: "We won't cause any trouble."
Wang Dadao parroted, "Yes, we won't cause any trouble."
"Coach He is usually busy, so you should learn the basics from me first." Yan Shouzhen said, then looked at He Zongliang and asked, "Is this arrangement okay for me?"
"Okay, sure." He Zongliang looked at Yan Shouzhen strangely.
Why is this kid talking so much today?
After deciding on the time to learn boxing, Tang Xueli returned home.
Tang Jinhong was in so much back pain that he couldn't get out of bed, so she took a plate of peanut cakes to "comfort" him.
Tang Limei went out to play, and Jia Zhenzhen was cooking in the kitchen.
There happened to be no one else in the room.
"A weasel is paying New Year's greetings to a chicken?" Tang Jinhong's eyelids twitched when he saw Tang Xueli. "Could there be poison in the peanut cake?"
"Uncle, you are such a joker." Tang Xueli put down the plate and stuffed the money in her hand to Tang Jinhong.
She lowered her voice and said, "Two hundred dollars."
"Huh?" Tang Jinhong's eyes were full of surprise.
"Let's rent a better house for Sister Hongye!" Tang Xueli put on a kind face, "If you had told me clearly the purpose of borrowing money, I would have helped you find a solution!"
Tang Jinhong: “…”
Could it be that he had been lying down for too long and was dreaming?
"Uncle, have you borrowed the money? Then I'll take this back." Tang Xueli said as she reached for the money in Tang Jinhong's hand.
Tang Jinhong clenched his palms tightly, "No, no, thank you Xueli, this family can't be without you!"
Tang Xueli smiled and said, "Then keep it away and don't let my aunt see it."
"Yes, yes, yes." Tang Jinhong immediately stuffed the money into his underwear pocket.
It was Jia Zhenzhen who sewed the inner pocket of his underwear for him, for fear that he would lose it when he had a lot of money on him.
"Sister Hongye has a hard life, you must find a better house for her!" After giving her instructions, Tang Xueli walked out of the west room.
Tang Jinhong was delighted.
It seems that he had wronged Tang Xueli before!
This child is quite nice.
