Chapter 16: Seo Joo-hyun's Birthday (Part I)
When I got home, I put down what I was holding, and instead of changing my dirty clothes, I ran downstairs to a grove.
This is one of the most hidden places in the whole community, when he first moved here, Xu Hunxian walked around the whole community, and then found a few places suitable for him to practice martial arts, which is the most satisfying for him, not far from home, it is better to be hidden enough, as long as it does not make too much noise, ordinary people will not find it, and it will not disturb people.
After moving his body slightly, he began to play Bajiquan, which was simple and strong, and was learned by the old man Li from the descendants of Bajiquan during the Liberation War, and he also gave his own things to others.
Because this punch is extremely combative, it was passed on to Xu Hunxian for self-defense, of course, the boxing techniques that Old Man Li taught Xu Hunxian for actual combat are more than these.
As Xu Hunxian's physical fitness is getting stronger and stronger, he has now made this set of boxing dance more and more powerful, which is the foundation of this boxing, so that his taekwondo has improved by leaps and bounds, and he will soon be a big step ahead of others.
After a set of Baji boxing, there is Tai Chi behind, which is not the Tai Chi promoted to the public by Yang, but the Chen Tai Chi with softness and rigidity, which has a strong practical significance. The whole set of movements of this boxing method is interdependent on the contradictions of fast and slow, rigid and soft, opening and closing, and straightening, and is connected continuously and completed in one go.
After playing two sets of boxing techniques, Xu Hunxian's body was already full of hot sweat, but his heart was extremely happy, although he didn't practice every day when he came back from school like before, but he came here every once in a while to practice a few hands, consolidating and not letting himself forget, but also to improve his strength.
Martial arts have learned from each other, and only when they are proficient can they return to the basics, of course, he can't do it now. First, he is very young, and second, his experience is too young and his mood is not enough, and only Old Man Li can achieve this kind of state.
In the evening, the family did not go their own way after dinner, and Xu Hunxian and Xu Zhuxian, brothers and sisters, did not go to practice, but it was rare to sit together and watch TV.
This drama is one of the "Four Seasons Love Song" series produced by KBS, called "Autumn Fairy Tale", also known as "Blue Life and Death Love", starring Moon Geun-young and Song Hye Kyo as Eun-hee eight years ago and eight years later, respectively.
Although the two men in the family don't like to watch this kind of crying drama, they rarely sit together and watch TV, and they don't leave.
Xu's mother and Xu Zhuxian were watching TV intently, but Xu's father and Xu Hunxian were chatting without a word, from Xu Hunxian's usual study to his current friends in school life, in short, taking this opportunity, Xu's father planned to understand Xu Hunxian thoroughly.
Suddenly, Xu's father thought of something, so he asked Xu Hunxian: "I heard you say that you wrote a song some time ago, what's the matter, and do you want to develop in music?" ”
Xu Hunxian took his eyes back from the TV, thought about it seriously, and replied: "Not yet, although I like music a lot, I don't have that plan yet, I want to be here, I just want to finish my studies first." ”
"Oh? Have you figured out what you're going to do in the future? Although you are still young, you can think about it first. Father Xu sat up straight, his expression becoming serious.
"I think so too, you are a boy, the burden is destined to be very heavy in the future, and after you organize a family, the family will depend on you." The voice here was a little loud, and Xu's mother, who was concentrating on watching TV, was also disturbed, and after listening to Xu's father's words, she also looked serious.
Xu Hunxian looked at the two of them, lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and then promised seriously: "I will." "That's his promise.
Seeing Xu Hunxian like this, the two looked at each other and were relatively satisfied, but the mother felt sorry for her son, so she changed her tone and comforted: "Don't care too much, just do what you want, you Abba and I will support you." ”
Dad Xu also nodded beside him, which was also his idea.
"Well, I got it, Oma." The following conversation is relatively relaxed, with the addition of Xu's mother, the family of four also turned off the TV, chatted about homely things, asked about the recent situation of Xu Hunxian and Xu Zhuxian, talked about trivial anecdotes in life, and occasionally there was laughter, but the whole atmosphere seemed very warm.
Unconsciously, the conversation lasted until half past ten, and the family felt that it was late, stood up, and went back to sleep. Today is Saturday, and the sun is very industriously rising, and it is spreading its energy to the earth.
Xu Hunxian also does not have the habit of sleeping lazily on weekends, but gets up early to exercise as always, which is a habit that he can't shake, unless he encounters extreme weather. After breakfast, Xu Hunxian did not stay at home as usual, but hurried out, which made Xu's mother wonder for a while, and thought something had happened.
Actually, it's really a very important thing, that is, next Wednesday is Xu Zhuxian's birthday, he has to prepare for her birthday gift, usually I don't have time for class, only today I have a good time to go around, choose a suitable gift.
Soon, Xu Hunxian came to the destination of this trip - Myeongdong, a very prosperous place in Seoul.
Myeongdong, Korea's fashion landmark, financial center, and vane of Korean fashion trends, is a one-stop shopping destination in Myeongdong, which is known as a shopper's paradise.
Nearby department stores, large shopping malls, domestic and foreign specialty stores, and fashion stores can buy the latest fashion and cosmetics, and there are plenty of food and entertainment activities to make it a popular spot for young people and a must-see for foreign tourists.
Xu Hunxian first walked around the street, which was very lively, because it was a weekend, and many students came here to shop, making the originally spacious street very crowded.
Most of them are still girls, and they get together in groups of three or five, chattering about the experience of shopping, which makes Xu Hunxian, who has always liked quiet, very uncomfortable, but fortunately, this is just the situation when he just arrived here, and after walking for a while, Xu Hunxian also had to adapt to this lively feeling.
It's mid to late June, and the girls who love beauty have already changed into summer outfits, forming a beautiful landscape. Xu Hunxian was not interested in this, and he didn't care much about these things, so he happened to see a medium-sized store, so he hid in it without hesitation.
This is an accessory shop, and there are many products inside, from some insignificant trinkets and small pendants, to large plush toys and some valuable gifts.
simply turned around, but there was nothing that satisfied Xu Hunxian, these goods were very good, but not to the point where he wanted to buy them.
After another careful turn, a bracelet in the metalwork section caught his eye.
This is a silver bracelet, the workmanship is very exquisite, and there are miniature amethyst embellishments, which are extremely elegant and exquisite, in short, Xu Hunxian is very satisfied, the price is a little expensive, but it is nothing, as long as Xu Zhuxian likes it.
So, Xu Hunxian called to the shopping guide not far away: "Miss, can you please come over for a while?" ”
Hearing someone greeting, he turned around from Xu Hunxian and nodded, and came to Xu Hunxian's side: "Is there anything I can do to help you?" ”
Xu Hunxian was not polite, pointed to the bracelet and said directly: "I want to ask you something, can this bracelet be engraved on it?" ”
The shopping guide looked at what Xu Hunxian was referring to, and then replied truthfully with a smile: "Yes, as long as the things you carve are not too complicated, you also know that there are only a few places where you can carve things, and you can't carve them if you have more." ”
This answer poured out Xu Hunxian's surprise, originally he was just trying to ask, so he hurriedly said: "Don't engrave something very troublesome, just a few letters." ”
Then, Xu Hunxian told the shopping guide the letters of Xu Zhuxian's name, the shopping guide nodded, took out the bracelet from the counter, asked Xu Hunxian to wait, and walked to the upstairs room, wanting to come here to have such a service.
After about ten minutes, the shopping guide walked in front of Xu Hunxian with the bracelet and handed the bracelet over: "Sir, take a look, are you satisfied with this kind of processing?" ”
After taking the bracelet handed over, Xu Hunxian took a closer look, the three letters were engraved with a very artistic sense, and he obviously put a lot of thought into the design of the letters, so he nodded with satisfaction: "Well, very good, please help me pack it." ”
"Okay, please wait." The other party took the bracelet, Xu Hunxian followed him to the charging counter, and after paying the fee, he got the bracelet that was packaged, and then left.
Today's time was not in vain, and he bought what he wanted as he wished, and Xu Hunxian was in a good mood.
Maybe because of this, he didn't notice the few girls who were walking fast on the opposite side, to put it simply, one didn't pay attention, and the other party was walking a little fast, so he didn't pay attention, so they bumped into each other.
"Yikes!." I only heard a coquettish cry, two of the three girls on the opposite side were knocked to the ground, and the bag in Xu Hunxian's hand also fell to the ground because he didn't hold it tightly, fortunately he didn't fly away, otherwise he would have become a "wronged soul" at the feet of others.
Picking up the bag that fell on the ground, Xu Hunxian hurriedly helped up the two people who fell to the ground with another girl who did not fall to the ground, and kept apologizing.
Han Jisoo is really happy today, after studying for five days, and finally said Saturday again, although he usually doesn't study much, but at this time, there is always a feeling of being very satisfied, so he got up early in the morning and had breakfast early, and went to find a few of his good friends An Sona and Choi Sun-eun, such a good weather, it is a waste not to go shopping.
After dragging on with them for a while, the three of them rushed to Myeongdong, where not only did they have delicious snacks, but they also had the possibility of meeting celebrities and finding their favorite goods.
In fact, in their class, Xu Hunxian is the most star-like, and the girls in the class agree that if Xu Hunxian can enter the entertainment industry, he will definitely be very popular, but it's a pity that that guy is really a little cold, and rarely talks to girls, so that those of them who sit on resources have no benefits at all, although they are in the same class as this school grass, they just usually watch a little more, and the others are no different, which makes many girls very heartbroken.
As soon as I arrived in Myeongdong, I didn't care that I had breakfast, so I went to the food stall in the small alley to eat, fried rice cakes, squid grilled, what was delicious to pick up, and I don't know who was shouting about losing weight a few days ago.
After eating for a while, after eating the things in my hand, I walked around Myeongdong, and I was really lucky to have met a shop that invited a few stars to perform here, although it was not very famous, but it was a star in the end. And what made her even more excited, that is, she picked a few good things today, and they were not expensive, which made her shout that today's harvest was too big, and it was a big explosion of luck in the past few months.
But sometimes, it is often happy and sad, excited to chat with the female companion on the side, did not look forward, but it is these small negligence, the tragedy happened, only to see the sound of "bump", the three of them collided with a person, that person really had great strength, directly knocked them down two, when she sat up and wanted to be fierce to that person, a familiar figure appeared in front of her eyes.
"Ah, Xu Hunxianxi." In an instant, Han Jixiu was stunned, and her head was also blank, she had never expected this kind of encounter.
Xu Hunxian was shouted by the person in front of him, and then he looked at the person in front of him carefully, well, as if he had met an acquaintance, he helped the two girls up, and looked at the girl who did not fall, this one is more familiar, it is Cui Shanen who once asked him questions.
"I'm really embarrassed, I just remember Choi Sun-eunxi, I can't name a few names, I'm really sorry." Even though he was a little embarrassed now, Xu Hunxian still said the question, and it would be even more impolite if he didn't take the initiative to ask.
"Xu Hunxianxi, you are really, classmates can't even call me and Suna's names after two years, it's too disappointing. But forget it this time, let's briefly introduce it, my name is Han Ji-so, next to me is An So-na, and the last one is the familiar Choi Sun-eun. After a short blank head, Han Jixiu immediately reacted, her head has always been big, and she didn't care about this, so she simply introduced a few people to Xu Hunxian.
"Yes, yes, since you knocked us down, you have to compensate us." Ansona next to her was not to be outdone and made a direct request.
"Well, what do you want me to pay for?" Xu Hunxian's head was a little big, and he hurriedly asked, three women in one play, the ancient Chinese saying is really not wrong.
A few girls thought about it, and suddenly, Han Jixiu thought of an idea, and said with a "simple" smile: "Then let's go shopping with us in Myeongdong, how about it?" Isn't that excessive? ”
Xu Hunxian thought about it for a while, this is nothing, so he nodded and agreed, but he didn't know what they were about in their hearts. Then, there was a situation that Xu Hunxian didn't see, except for Cui Shanen, the other two were all smiling meaningfully, as if something had succeeded.
In fact, their purpose is very simple, that is, to "cultivate" a relationship with Xu Hunxian, and with the first step, they will be familiar with each other, and it will be easy to do in the future.
