Xu Qing really got up very early, not to mention Mr. Zheng. Even the elderly couldn't sleep in the morning.
Seeing both of them coming to the yard, Liu Limin chuckled and said: "Mr. Zheng, I have a set of Taoist health-preserving exercises. I wonder if you are willing to learn them. After practicing them, it will definitely be good for your body!"
Mr. Zheng said in surprise: "Oh, Dr. Xiao Liu, do you know how to do Qigong?"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "Since ancient times, medicine and martial arts have been intertwined. There is nothing surprising about this. For example, Hua Tuo created the Wu Qin Xi, and King Yao also practiced Qigong."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "My senior brother is very powerful. He promised me last night that he would teach me how to practice kung fu today!"
Mr. Zheng smiled and said: "Okay, okay, then I will follow suit!"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "Then I will demonstrate it first, and then you will follow suit!"
Then Liu Limin began to practice. The first thing was naturally the preparatory pose. Liu Limin said while doing it: "In this preparatory pose, the body and mind should be unified, breathe freely, feel the Qi pulse, hold the ground with the toes, and relax the shoulders and knees.
It is better to go slowly than to rush."
Liu Limin was seen with his feet together, his body upright, his hands naturally hanging down at his sides, and his eyes looking forward. Indeed, at this time, he still looked a bit enigmatic.
Mr. Zheng has also met many qigong masters. Qigong was also very popular in the 1960s, but compared to Liu Limin, those qigong masters did not look real.
Liu Limin then pulled his left foot to the left, shoulder width apart. He put the five fingers of his hands together and straightened them. The Qi machine started to activate.
Liu Limin recited the Taoist health-preserving exercises while explaining.
The first sentence is called "Putting your hands on the top of the head to activate the three burners." Liu Limin said: "In this first pose, you need to silently recite the five words of birth, growth, transformation, collection, and storage!"
Not long after, Liu Limin finished explaining the entire set of exercises and demonstrated them again.
It's just that for Mr. Zheng and Xu Qing, it takes more than one day to truly master this set of exercises.
Not to mention that you can learn it after just one demonstration. If you could learn it once, wouldn’t you be a genius?
Next, Liu Limin began to guide the young and old to start practicing.
Liu Lixin was also very interested in Qigong. When he saw his elder brother teaching Mr. Zheng and Xu Qing how to practice Qigong, he came over to join in the fun.
The first time they practiced, Zheng Lao and Xu Qing naturally did not perform the movements in a standard manner, and they could not even remember the movements.
Liu Limin taught them very patiently and helped them correct their movements.
Just after correcting Mr. Zheng's movements, Liu Limin saw that Xu Qing's movements were also wrong, so he walked over again, stood behind her, and helped her raise her right hand, saying at the same time: "The hand should be raised, parallel to the shoulder, put it so low
If it doesn’t work, then put your hands together and insert it on the top of your head!”
Then Liu Limin grabbed Xu Qing's hands and completed the action of inserting the top.
When a big man grabbed her hands and lifted her up like this, Xu Qingxia's cheeks immediately flew away. This was almost equivalent to Liu Limin half-hugging her.
Don't say that there are people around, even when there is no one, it is just as embarrassing.
Xu Qing said angrily: "Brother, if you say that to me, I can't lift my hands!"
But Liu Limin didn't think so much, and said seriously: "Just practice more, you have to relax your whole body, how can you be so tight!"
Liu Limin could naturally feel Xu Qing's nervousness, and her body was stiff.
"I know." Xu Qing said happily. She wished that Liu Limin would guide her in practicing every day.
Next, Xu Qing always did something wrong, and Liu Limin could only constantly correct her movements. In this way, she taught her step by step, and she naturally became very close.
So in this way, the teaching effect will naturally be much worse.
In comparison, Mr. Zheng has learned much better, but this is also because Mr. Zheng has some basic knowledge. He also practiced Tai Chi before.
Seeing that Xu Qing was a little distracted, Liu Limin understood what was going on, so he could only say with a serious face: "Junior sister, don't think wildly, you must keep your mind on Baihui!"
Xu Qing underestimated in a low voice: "Brother, why are you so mean?"
Liu Limin was also dumbfounded. The old man and the youngest saw this, alas.
After practicing for almost an hour, Mr. Zheng has almost learned the movements. There is no problem with the movements. The next step is to gradually become familiar with them. However, Xu Qing's movements are still not in place. It is estimated that it will take a few days.
Mrs. Wang had prepared breakfast, and Liu Limin said with a smile: "Okay, let's finish training here this morning. Let's wash our faces and get ready for breakfast!"
Xu Qing said: "Brother, I haven't learned it yet, so why don't I just stop practicing?"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "Come back tomorrow. Who makes your understanding so poor? You see, Mr. Zheng has already learned it. You might as well start with Li Xin. I didn't teach him specifically, he just learned from the sidelines!"
Liu Lixin said: "Brother, I think this technique is not difficult! But why can't Sister Qing learn it?"
This guy said this on purpose, he knew it very well in his heart!
Xu Qing blushed again and ran to wash her face.
Today, everyone in Liu Limin's family, except the Wang family, went to the fields to collect corn cobs. Xu Qing also fulfilled her promise yesterday and followed Liu Limin to the fields.
She was just a girl from the city, who had never done such a job before. Her speed was not half as fast as Liu Lixin's, and soon her delicate arms were covered with blood stains, and her body became extremely itchy.
Xu Qing didn't want Liu Limin to look down on her, so she gritted her teeth and persisted.
Mr. Zheng asked his driver to help Liu Limin. He and Liu Limin were responsible for picking, Liu Lihui and the others were responsible for breaking the corn cobs, and Wang was drying the corn cobs at home.
After doing it all in one morning, the harvest was quite a lot. The whole courtyard was covered with golden corn cobs.
However, everyone was very tired, especially Xu Qing, who turned into a cat with a painted face. She could no longer look like a beauty. Her body was completely soaked with sweat, but she looked very graceful.
It's a pity that her fair skin was covered with blood marks everywhere, which looked very sinful.
Mrs. Wang felt a little distressed and felt that she was sorry for letting this girl work. After all, Xu Qing was not from the Liu family.
Liu Limin took Xu Qing's towel, wet it with water and twisted it, handed it to Xu Qing who was as limp as mud, and said: "Junior sister, you have worked hard today, come and wipe it, you have turned into a cat with a painted face!"
Although Xu Qing felt very tired, she still felt very sweet in her heart. Her senior brother cared about her quite a lot.
Taking the towel, Xu Qing wiped away the sweat and dust on her body, and said with a sweet smile: "Brother, I'm not tired. I think it's meaningful to participate in such labor. I didn't know farmers worked so hard before. Now I finally realized that everything is hard work!"
