Chapter 246 Martial Arts Practice
Lin Chunyi separated the four bamboo baskets and rummaged through the contents of the smaller baskets; there were more items than she expected.
She laughed and exclaimed, "That's true. But we bought a lot of walnuts this time. It's like the saying 'like cures like,' so if we eat them regularly, they should help us recover some of the nutrients."
These loofah sponges and soapberries will come in handy tomorrow. Ah Shu helped them pack them up; he was a great help.
Lin Lanshan was shining a flashlight in the carriage when she saw a large bulge covered with a floral cloth. She fell silent.
After staring at it for what seemed like an eternity, she finally asked, "Sis, when did we get such fancy fabric?"
And the pattern of this floral fabric looks somewhat familiar...
"Huh? Flashy fabric? When did we put this in there? That can't be right." Lin Chunyi was confused.
Just kidding, they're at the age where they look down on country-style floral prints right now, and there's absolutely no way they'd take their family's floral fabrics out!
After all, if those brightly colored floral jackets, embroidered cotton shoes, fertilizer bags, red braids, and the like appeared in their schools and classes, they would definitely be ridiculed and bullied every day.
Those words like "rustic," "poor and unsophisticated," "from the countryside," etc.,
It will accompany this person throughout their entire academic career at this school and will never disappear.
But who could have imagined it!
A few years later, when everyone has graduated and started working, many of us will actually be using these simple yet very useful things.
Getting back to the point, Lin Chunyi couldn't recall taking any floral fabric with them when they went out, nor could she have gone out of her way to buy a whole bolt.
He then crawled into the carriage and craned his neck to take a look, but fell silent as well.
This is definitely not from their family!
The deep crimson fabric was printed with large, unidentified red flowers. The colors and patterns were undoubtedly very beautiful to the people here!
It's a pity that Lin Chunyi and Lin Lanshan have the same wrinkled face, which is still a bit of an eyesore no matter how you look at it.
“Lanshan, I feel like I’ve seen this fabric somewhere before…!” Lin Chunyi said as she lifted the floral fabric, revealing the bulge.
Hey!
The two immediately understood and knew where the familiar floral fabric came from.
These clothes, these shoes, this pile of dried goods, and two baskets of eggs protected by hay...
Lin Chunyi said helplessly, "Did my aunts give us all the good stuff in their house? That's too much! They have such a big family. They should keep it for themselves. How can the two of us possibly eat all of this?"
Aunt Zhang and Sister Yang must have spent a lot of time and effort sewing just these two new clothes and two pairs of new shoes. And on top of that, they also gave them a whole bunch of food.
This kind of care and concern is priceless!
“Because in their hearts, we are just their own children living away from home!” Lin Lanshan smiled and picked up the new clothes that were obviously prepared for her, holding them up against herself.
Then she said smugly, "Sis, this yellow one is definitely mine. It's the exact same size as the one I'm wearing, and the color is one I like."
Lin Chunyi picked up another light green one and said happily, "Hmm, this one looks good too. Now we have three new outfits for the New Year!"
I wonder if the things they gave were worth all the effort they put into them...
However, Chinese New Year really has many benefits, hehe!
The two sisters then tried on the new shoes, which were warm, comfortable, and fit perfectly everywhere. They loved them so much that their smiles stretched from their ears to their mouths.
They continued packing up the things in the carriage, moving all the food back to the kitchen and cellar, and storing the food that couldn't be kept for long into their storage space.
Finally, they even moved the barbecue grill into the kitchen.
The way they moved was so careful, as if they were handling some priceless treasure...
The next day, the weather was sunny and bright.
Suitable~
Clean the barbecue grill!
Then, barbecue!
At the end of the Si hour (9-11 AM), under the osmanthus tree in the inner courtyard, a wooden table was set with many iron skewers containing vegetables and meat pieces.
Lin Lanshan sat on the cold stone bench, her sleeves rolled up to reveal a section of her forearm, skewering the pieces of meat her sister had marinated onto iron skewers one by one.
She moved her still slightly sore shoulders and said, "After the fight, we'll have a barbecue. This is the best life ever!"
Lin Chunyi, standing to the side, started a fire in the cleaned barbecue grill on the stone table. She added charcoal and then secured the grill mesh. The charcoal burned quickly, and the metal mesh on the grill soon became very hot.
"Right? If I could have a beer or a Coke, that would be amazing!" she said as she laid out the skewers one by one.
"Sis, grill the meat first! Grill the meat first! Why did you put potato slices in? Seriously!"
Putting aside the beer issue, look at how my sister gave up the two spots meant for grilled meat for mere potato slices! Lin Lanshan was so anxious she almost stood up to demonstrate herself.
Lin Chunyi glared at her, "What's your rush? I have to put everything in, to make it more even! You look like you haven't eaten in ages."
"You hit me so hard today, I just wanted to eat more meat to make up for it, so what!" Lin Lanshan was furious when she thought about her "miserable state" this morning.
To put it simply: a crazy older sister who wants to kill her younger sister and a broken woman frantically dodging...
Here's what happened...
Because they slept in late yesterday afternoon, they woke up before dawn today. Although they longed for the warmth of their beds, they were wide awake and had no phones to play with, so they had no choice but to get up early.
First, they started cooking rice porridge, then went for a run to warm up. After that, they put the firewood away, stored the porridge in their spatial storage, and the two of them began practicing in the inner courtyard, exchanging punches and kicks.
Actually, being able to do simple and tedious things over and over again, and persist in doing them every day, is a very impressive thing.
This is how they do their morning and evening exercises every day.
I might adjust the amount of practice as needed, depending on whether I'm particularly busy or free, but I would never simply give up and stop practicing!
Moreover, after their martial arts sparring session with Baili Xinglan, the two sisters gained a deeper understanding of the saying "there are always people better than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding."
Therefore, they are now paying more attention to martial arts training, believing that they were too conservative before and that they need to spend more time and train harder and more relentlessly in the future.
Because this world is too big!
They have no idea how many people are as capable as Baili Xinglan, or how many are even more capable than him.
And how many more powerful people are there than him, yet harbor evil intentions and do bad things...?
No one knows when or who will be struck by danger and misfortune. They don't know, and they dare not think so much.
Perhaps life is peaceful and tranquil now, but who can predict what lies in the unknown darkness?
So here, having no other way, they believe that only by training themselves to be unafraid of any darkness can they feel a sense of security.
Being strong enough is the greatest guarantee of one's own safety!
With this belief in mind, the two sisters gave it their all in their first sparring session after returning home...
