Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 38 Campus Legend
"I was just chatting with her casually because I was bored. Why do you take it so seriously... I don't have any thoughts like that about her." Fang Yan was speechless because of my mother. Isn't this just a random matchmaking?

My mother He Huiru said unhappily:
"How can you not have one? Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Don't you look at how old you are? When I was 22, your eldest sister was already helping out. Oh, right! Look at your childhood friends Yuan Hongqi and Lin Rong, how old are their children now? Don't you have any idea?"

Fangyan shook his head and remained unmoved:
"My second sister hasn't even gotten married yet, so I, as the third child, am not in a hurry."

The old lady glanced at Fangyan, and then asked tentatively:

"Do you already have a girl you like? If so, I wouldn't be talking about this."

"I've only been back for a few days, who would I like to go with?" Fangyan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The old lady asked:

"Didn't you ask me for money to treat someone to dinner today?"

Fangyan responded:
"That was to treat a few colleagues in our store to a meal. They treated me so I had to treat them back. By the way, I haven't used the ticket you gave me yet. Today my superior came over to give me a certificate of commendation, a bonus, and the ticket. I used the one I got today for the lunch."

As he said that, he returned all the money and tickets that my mother had given him today.

But He Huiru just waved her hand:

"Don't give me this. If you give it to me, just take it. You are the only one at home now. When your sister and brother come back, you will all have to pay for food."

Fangyan didn't give it away, so he had to reinstall it. He said:
"Okay, actually I can pay it now."

"We can still afford to support you." The mother didn't care at all. Given their family's situation, their current income is definitely high.

Excluding dialect, Fang Zhenhua and He Huiru earn several hundred yuan a month in total.

How can ordinary families compare to this?

"By the way, I was talking to you about your relationship, why did you change the subject again? Are you asking me if you like a colleague in the store?" He Huiru came back to her senses and continued the previous topic.

The dialect is speechless:
"Oh, no, I don't know everyone in my store, so who can I like?"

He Huiru nodded, and then continued:
"Oh, in that case... Xiao Shen is actually quite good. She can dance, has a good figure, and looks good. Her parents are in the education and health system, and she is a college student. Besides being three years older than you... a woman three years older than you is a rich woman, so this is not a problem."

Then she suggested:

"I'll bring her some fruit tomorrow and tell her it's from you. We'll have lunch together at noon. If it's a good fit, you two can try dating. That way, I can have a grandchild sooner."

Fangyan hurriedly grabbed my mother:

"Mom, have you forgotten that I still have to go to college? Don't just think about having grandchildren. As long as I can go to college, I can meet any good girl in the future."

"I should study hard now and then take the college entrance exam. Romance is for later."

As a college student, I agree with this very much. She finally nodded:

"Tsk, what you said is true..."

"That's right, why are you in such a hurry? I'm only 22 and there's still a lot of time to grow." Fangyan responded.

After calming his mother down, Fang Yan felt relieved. People do get married early these days, but he still has a lot of things to do, so how could he just get married blindly?

Moreover, his targets were the dazzling girls of those times, Zhu Lin, Gong Xue, Tao Huimin, He Qing, Chen Hong... Now he hasn't met any of them, how can he just find someone to marry?
We are all time travelers, so there is no reason why others can do what we can’t, right?

When they got home, Dad was already busy in the kitchen. Fangyan and Mom helped him. At the same time, they talked about Fangyan's bravery yesterday. Dad's first reaction was different from Mom's. He was very happy that Fangyan could stand up at this time and praised him for being brave. However, he immediately found that his wife's face was not right, so he immediately changed the subject with "back to the point", and warned Fangyan that although his courage was commendable, it was too dangerous. In the future, when encountering such things, he must not be impulsive unless he is sure, because catching thieves is not his job.

After hearing this, He Huiru nodded and reminded Fangyan not to put himself in danger in the future.

They don't want to see their loved ones die before them.

After dinner, Fangyan used the excuse of going out for a walk and found a secluded spot in the nearby woods to stand in the Trikonasana pose. He could now feel the benefits of practicing martial arts, and his body, which had been depleted for so many years, was slowly recovering.

After standing still, he started practicing the Twelve Forms Boxing that he had learned today.

I only learned eight of the forms today, and I have to continue learning the rest tomorrow afternoon.

Only then can you start using the Xingyi double stick.

As the sky gradually darkened, from the grove came the "bang bang" sound of fists hitting trees and the sound of force being exerted in dialect.

At this moment, Fangyan was immersed in it and silently recited the rhyme in his mind:

"The monkey is light and agile, and can climb branches with agility. It holds the rope in its mouth and adds a hanging seal, and grabs the pole and moves its palm to the throat..."

"The horse has the skill of running fast with the reins down, leaping over streams and crossing them at the speed of the wind. Holding the Qi in the Dantian and wrapping the fists, the double charge to the left and right is the true emotion."

"The swallows and sparrows are light and can skim the water. They spread their wings backwards as fast as the wind. They lift up, lift up and swipe three times to skim the water. All movements should be light and agile."

Some students and professors from the University of Science and Technology were passing by. They saw someone struggling in the dim woods but did not dare to rush in to check. So that night, a rumor spread that there was a madman in the school woods, screaming and banging his head against trees.

Then this version began to evolve, and it became a story about a student who went crazy because of emotional problems, and banged his head against a tree while reading a love letter.

Fangyan, the person involved, didn't know that he just found a place to practice boxing, and it became a campus legend. After practicing, he went back to take a shower, read a book for a while, and then lay down on the bed to sleep when the time came.

The next day, before dawn, he got up again and went to the grove to continue standing and practicing boxing.

While practicing, he silently recited the Xingyi Qimen Eight Characters Skill from his master Lu Donghua's little notebook:
"Hit left and right, chop, slash, and flip, step forward, pounce, and headbutt. Grab the elbow, cut the shoulder with the arm, and switch between yin and yang. Wrap the elbow, scrape the ground, and hammer the elbow. The elbow hits the waist. White Crane Spreads Wings, and the elbows are connected in the wrapping and picking..."

After learning the Twelve Forms Boxing yesterday, he understood what this Eight Character Kung Fu was all about.

In addition to Qimen Bazi Gong, there is also Zhengmen Bazi Gong, which talks about other uses.

This time he was practicing punches in the air, dodging and moving swiftly, and his feet stomped on the trees, making crackling sounds.

After finishing the practice, Fangyan ran home to make breakfast.

Unexpectedly, my action further confirmed the rumors from last night.

Now the news spread in a small circle.

Someone went to the woods to check and saw that there were indeed dents on the tree.

Now no one can say that this is false.

After breakfast, Fang Yan and his mother got on the bus again. When they arrived at the drugstore today, Fang Yan finally didn't see the deputy manager's ugly face.

I immediately felt much better.
