In winter in the capital, it’s still dark at 5:30 in the morning.
There was a soft sound of getting dressed in the room, and Sun Dahai got up in the dark. After getting dressed, he found a glass of water on the small table that he had put before going to bed, and drank it. He walked to the door,
Open the door and get ready to go out.
"The sea?" Grandma vaguely heard the sound of the door opening and asked softly.
"Grandma, I'm going to exercise. You can sleep a little longer."
"Hiss." The cold air in the early morning suddenly drove away Sun Dahai's sleepiness that had not completely dissipated. He did a few minutes of warm-up exercises in the courtyard to get his body moving, then opened the courtyard door and walked to the alley.
inside.
The alley was quiet, with no one in sight. There were only dim street lights, guiding the way for passers-by who had left early in the dark night sky.
Sun Dahai opened the courtyard door ajar and began his daily morning exercises.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Sun Dahai has always felt that his body functions have improved greatly since his rebirth. Not only has his body’s explosive power, endurance and recovery ability increased a lot, but his flexibility, nerve responses, and even...
Even his memory has also improved. These are all things he can feel and cannot be quantified. But Sun Dahai remembers clearly that in his previous life, during his primary school entrance physical examination, his visual acuity was 1.0 and 0.8, but in this life, the examination result was 1.5 in both eyes, but in fact it was 2.0.
Sun Dahai also saw very clearly, but the doctor did not check.
"It's a pity. It would be better if you could just give me the ability to be extremely powerful, invulnerable to weapons, photographic memory, etc." Sun Dahai thought a little greedily.
Although his physical improvement did not reach the level of Sun Dahai's fantasy, he still accepted the reality with contentment.
No matter what, the body is his own. Sun Dahai cherishes this opportunity to be reborn: protecting the body is to prolong life. Sun Dahai thought so, so after his rebirth, he began to insist on morning exercises every day.
After running two laps for about 30 minutes, Sun Dahai ran into the woods to the west of the Civic Hall. By this time, it was already dark. There were already people on the road who had gotten up early to go to work or exercise.
Sun Dahai walked slowly around and came to the open space where he practiced boxing every day. Sun Dahai evened out his breathing, calmed down his energy and blood, and after his mind calmed down, he started boxing.
Wuji, Tai Chi, lazily tying clothes, opening hands, closing hands, single whip... A set of traditional Sun style Tai Chi was played from the hands of Sun Dahai.
In his previous life, Sun Dahai was deceived into learning Tai Chi.
It was at the end of 2012 that a girl added Sun Dahai as a friend from the "People Nearby" function on WeChat. After a few simple exchanges, the girl asked Sun Dahai if he would like to practice Tai Chi with her.
Training class. Sun Dahai thought he had encountered a liar or a salesperson, so he ignored her. The girl asked a few more questions, but received no reply. She became angry and directly sent her a video chat.
Out of curiosity, Sun Dahai connected to the video. When he opened the screen, he saw a quiet young girl, holding up her work permit in one hand, staring angrily at him. Through the video, Sun Dahai understood what the girl meant.
This little girl named Ma Rui is a post-90s generation who just graduated in 2012 and works as a file manager in a company. She bought a membership to a video website and looked for movies to watch. Just now, she finished watching a Chen
The old movie "Tai Chi Zhang San Feng", and I became crazy about Tai Chi in the movie.
So she immediately found a Tai Chi training class that seemed larger and more formal, and prepared to sign up. During the consultation, she learned that there was a discount, and two people could sign up for a 25% discount.
Her head was so hot that she actually forgot that she could find her friends. She directly used the "people nearby" function of WeChat she had just learned to catch the unlucky guy Sun Dahai...
"The little girl is very innocent and lively." Sun Dahai thought: "I have to exercise anyway, so why not go with this little girl who makes a fuss." So Sun Dahai was fooled into it.
Through contact, Sun Dahai saw clearly the true nature of Ma Rui. This seemingly quiet girl was actually very lively. In other words, she was "quiet as a virgin and as active as a mad rabbit."
Being with the infinitely youthful and energetic Ma Rui, Sun Dahai fully felt that he was... old. However, Sun Dahai cherished his friendship with Ma Rui very much, because he could always see his sister in Ma Rui.
The shadow of Sun Yuanyuan’s past.
Ma Rui's enthusiasm comes and goes in a hurry. After only two months of the three-month Tai Chi elementary training class, Ma Rui found a new goal.
"Bikram yoga", these four words can make Sun Dahai tremble when he thinks about it. It is really a painful memory.
After Ma Rui's euphemistic plea, Sun Dahai agreed to accompany her. At a certain high-temperature yoga club, after consulting with customer service representatives, the two of them got the opportunity to have a free trial class. A class lasted 90 minutes. At the 8th minute
, Sun Dahai, who was sweating profusely and almost fainting, crawled out of the yoga room. About 2 hours later, when Ma Rui finished her class and came out after taking a bath, Sun Dahai had not fully recovered.
A 40-year-old man with old arms and legs? Sun Dahai, if he could follow ordinary yoga movements for ten minutes, he would be considered a strong party member, let alone doing the movements in a sealed high-temperature room of 40 degrees. "No."
If I don't work hard," a voice echoed in Sun Dahai's heart: "I really can't do it!"
Seeing this situation, Ma Rui couldn't persuade Sun Dahai to persist anymore, so the two separated and acted independently. However, they kept in touch frequently, often eating and chatting together, and even going on outings. One day a year later, because of Mricken
There is a big trend in the domestic stock market, and Sun Dahai has entered a closed trading state.
More than two months later, Sun Dahai ended the operation and his life returned to normal. But he only received a message from Ma Rui two months ago. Ma Rui said that she and several friends formed a team to participate in the "Super COSPLAY" held in Qiantang
The two had no contact since then. Sun Dahai persisted in practicing Tai Chi. After his level reached the intermediate level, Sun Dahai chose Sun Style Tai Chi without hesitation to continue his studies.
Who gave him the surname Sun?
…
In nearly ten minutes, Sun Dahai finished a set of punches. He relaxed his muscles, moved his joints, rested for a few minutes, and then punched again. Before he was 12 years old, running and boxing every day was a sport arranged by Sun Dahai for himself. Now at his age
He is small and his bones are not fully developed, so he dare not engage in moderate to heavy exercise that would put too much strain on his body.
After the morning exercise, Sun Dahai returned home. It was already dawn at about 7 o'clock, and the two grandmothers and mother Li Cuifeng had already gotten up and started working. Living in a bungalow has many inconveniences. Bathing and going to the toilet are usually troublesome, but in winter
, water and fire are the real big troubles.
Let’s talk about water first. Tap water is basically available in the capital city. The tap water pipes are buried underground. A well is dug in each courtyard, with a depth of about 1.5 meters. The water gate is in the well. The faucet is on the ground with a house number.
It is equipped with a faucet, no matter it is a single courtyard, front or back yard or three-in-one courtyard. Every household in the courtyard has a water tank to store water. You can go to the faucet to receive water at any time during the day. In winter, the water must be turned off at night, otherwise it will freeze.
If you live here, you can only use the water stored at home. At night in winter, when everyone has basically used up the water, someone in the yard will turn off the water. First, open the manhole cover, close the water gate, and then open the small door next to the water gate.
Discharge the water from the faucet and drain the water in the pipe between the water gate and the faucet on the ground to prevent freezing at night. Finally, wait for the water to drain out before closing the small faucet. In the morning, it is best to pour hot water on the faucets and water pipes on the ground and wait for a while.
After the meeting, you can open the water gate in the well and use it normally.
As for fire, most people use honeycomb briquette stoves. Prepare in advance at night and adjust the firepower through the area of the damper and the opening and closing degree of the chimney fire damper. It is best to add two pieces of new coal before going to bed, and adjust the damper.
It's small, so it can heat the whole night.
During the day, it is simple, just pay attention to adding coal, taking out ashes, and don't put the kettle on the fire or boil the pot dry. In the previous life, Sun Dahai often didn't pay attention, so every winter, he had to replace several new kettles at home.
The current small courtyard is not very large. Because the two families eat together, the built-in kitchen directly covers the faucet. Winter in the capital is not very cold, so unless there is a big drop in temperature, there is no need to open and close the water gate every day at home.
, saves a lot of trouble.
In 1979, I got a liquefied petroleum tank at home. There were two burners on an iron shelf. Two fires could be turned on at the same time, which made cooking a lot faster. Because there were so many people and there were so many people, and there were so many foodies, there was never enough air exchange tickets. Thank you 80
In the early 1990s, those brave people who scalped votes improved the quality of life of the Sun and Cao families.
