"Then how should I figure out the things I don't understand?"
"It requires hands-on instruction. Only when you understand the point yourself, you have truly grasped it."
Ji Zhinan stepped forward: "I can teach you step by step."
"..." Madam Gu was arrogant for a few seconds, then she stretched out her hand and snorted, "Come on."
Ji Zhinan smiled: "Excuse me."
She stood behind Mrs. Gu, holding her hands with both hands and giving orders herself, punching as she spoke.
Sure enough, Mrs. Gu couldn't use any strength when she fought herself, but after being provoked by Ji Zhinan, she immediately realized it.
"You can try it yourself." Ji Zhinan let her go.
Mrs. Gu threw a few punches herself, and she could feel that her punches were much more powerful.
But she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. The more she looked at Ji Zhinan, the more she liked him. "I didn't expect you to understand all this at such a young age."
Ji Zhinan smiled modestly: "I have learned some boxing and karate, so I know a thing or two."
Hearing that Ji Zhinan also knew karate, Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up again: "The girls your age that I've seen are either piano and guitar, or dance and flower arrangement. You're a rare one, learning boxing and karate."
The smile on her face deepened. "I should learn what others can do, and I should also learn what others can't do. It's always better to have more skills. This is the only way to be better than others, isn't it?"
Mrs. Gu nodded, rarely agreeing with her point of view.
She likes girls who are ambitious.
"I see people on TV punching really fast and hard, but I'm just too slow. How can I train for that?"
Ji Zhinan patiently taught: "To increase the speed of punching, you must strengthen explosive power, reaction speed, and flexibility training..."

Gu Yibei has been very busy recently and has had meetings every morning these past two days.
The two-hour meeting in the study finally ended. He went downstairs and saw the maid preparing breakfast in the dining room. Mrs. Gu and Ji Zhinan were not there.
"Good morning, Master."
Seeing Gu Yibei coming down, the maid immediately asked him good morning.
The man glanced at the empty seat and asked, "Where are Miss Ji and Madam?"
"Miss Ji went for a morning run, and Madam is practicing boxing in the back garden."
Gu Yibei nodded to indicate that he understood. He turned around and was about to go out to look for someone when Ji Zhinan and Mrs. Gu came back at the same time. He could hear Mrs. Gu's voice from a distance.
"I feel sore in my back and waist, especially my hands. It seems like I used too much force just now..."
Then Ji Zhinan's voice came: "It's okay, this will happen when you first start practicing, but it will go away after a few more practices. It's good to learn more, it will strengthen your body."
Madam Gu: "I think so too. You don't know that in Country Y, I'm either arranging flowers and painting by myself, or having afternoon tea with noble ladies. If I don't exercise, I feel like I'm degenerating..."
Judging from their conversation, it seemed that they were getting along quite well. Gu Yibei raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
He was just looking for an opportunity for them to get to know each other, but he didn't expect that the two women he loved most already knew each other.
"Mother, Nannan." Gu Yibei walked forward.
When she saw her son, Mrs. Gu was like a hen whose chicks were about to be snatched away, and she immediately protected Ji Zhinan behind her.
"You little bastard, you've been hanging out with Nan Nan every day. What's wrong with giving her to your mother now?"
“…”
Gu Yibei twitched the corners of his mouth.
Mom, this looks like my wife...
