Chapter 202: Instructing Fang Duobing in Sword Practice
The next day, Li Lianhua reluctantly bid farewell to Su Ci and drove the Lianhua Tower back to the East China Sea.
Originally they only planned to be away from home for ten days, but now they have been gone for more than half a month, so naturally they have to go back.
After Li Lianhua left, Su Ci went to Tianji Villa. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Fang Duobing looking at him resentfully.
Su Ci was startled, and then he remembered the other party's promise yesterday that he would be sick.
She touched her nose and said guiltily, "Xiaobao, why are you here? Don't you have class today?"
Fang Duobing looked at Su Ci with an expression of looking at a heartless man, and complained: "Aunt Su, you said you would come back early yesterday? Not only did you not come back early, you didn't come back at all. Do you know that I have been waiting for you for a long time?"
Could Su Ci say that yesterday's miracle flower smelled so good that she had long forgotten that there was a Fang Duobing waiting for them to go home?
Su Ci coughed and said, "Well, it was almost curfew after we finished dealing with things yesterday. We couldn't make it back, so we stayed out for one night."
Yesterday, she and Li Lianhua went shopping for clothes, then went out for snacks. They played until almost curfew before returning to Lianhua Building, so naturally they couldn't make it back to Tianji Villa.
She wasn't lying, she just didn't tell Fang Duobing that what she was talking about was just shopping.
So, this isn't really the truth, right?
Although Fang Duobing had some of the temper of a rich boy, he was generally a good boy. After hearing Su Ci's explanation, he was no longer angry and forgave her.
Su Ci felt a pang of conscience when he looked at Fang Duobing, who was so innocent and easy to please.
Out of compensation, she offered to teach him martial arts.
Fang Duobing was immediately happy and followed Su Ci to the martial arts field happily.
Su Ci looked around the martial arts arena: "What weapon do you use?"
Fang Duobing said firmly: "I use the sword. I want to become a martial arts master like Master and use the sword in my hand to settle the injustices in the world."
Su Ci encouraged, "What a great ambition. You must practice martial arts well, or you will no longer be a hero but a jerk."
She thought that the "master" Fang Duobing was referring to was the martial arts master hired for him by the Fang family, and she didn't pay much attention to it.
Su Ci: "Practice the sword techniques you learned for me first."
Upon hearing this, Fang Duobing drew out his extremely precious wooden sword and started practicing with it, performing each move seriously.
Su Ci watched from the side and nodded continuously. Although Fang Duobing only demonstrated the most basic sword styles, each move was very standard and not soft and weak. It was obvious that he had put in a lot of hard work.
After Fang Duobing finished his demonstration, he looked at Su Ci with sparkling eyes and asked expectantly, "Aunt Su, how is it? Did I learn well?"
For some reason, looking at Fang Duobing with eyes wide open and full of expectation, Su Ci had a sense of déjà vu as if he saw a vixen asking for meat and bones to eat.
Su Ci suppressed his smile and said, "You have practiced this basic sword style well, keep working on it. However, your lower body is a little unstable, you need to do more horse stance. The transitions between some sword moves need to be more coherent, the last few moves can be like this..."
While pointing out Fang Duobing's shortcomings, she drew the Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute from her waist and demonstrated to him how to use the flute as a sword.
Fang Duobing had good talent, and with just a little guidance from Su Ci he was able to master it immediately and never made the same mistake again.
It is particularly easy to teach smart students, which gives teachers a sense of accomplishment.
Su Ci's teachings became popular, and he demonstrated Wu Ji to Fang Duobing, asking him to learn it well.
Fang Duobing was overjoyed and immediately promised that he would study hard and would never embarrass Su Ci.
The two of them forgot about time while teaching and learning. It was only when He Xiaohui saw that Su Ci was nowhere to be seen that she asked and found out that they were in the martial arts field.
When she came over, Fang Duobing had just memorized all of Wu Ji's moves and was practicing them for Su Ci to see.
Su Ci saw He Xiaohui, greeted her, motioned for her to wait, and continued to watch Fang Duobing practice.
He Xiaohui had an extraordinary eye and naturally noticed that the sword moves Fang Duobing was practicing were unusual. After a little thought, she knew that this was what Su Ci taught his son.
She immediately ordered someone to prepare a generous gift for Su Ci.
When Fang Duobing stopped, He Xiaohui took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and then said to Su Ci: "Xiao Ci, are you interested in taking Xiao Bao as your apprentice?"
Su Ci was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, Fang Duobing interrupted him hastily, "Mother, I can't take Aunt Su as my master. I have a master."
He Xiaohui slapped him, "You little brat, you learned Xiao Ci's swordsmanship but you're not willing to call her Master? Besides, it's still a question whether Xiao Ci is willing to accept you as her disciple, why are you in such a hurry?"
Fang Duobing said stubbornly: "Anyway, I have a master, I can't take Aunt Su as my master."
He Xiaohui pulled Fang Duobing's ear and said rudely, "Hey, you stupid kid. You have no right to interrupt when adults are talking. Go away."
Su Ci tried to smooth things over, "I am not old enough to accept a disciple yet. I was just excited to see Xiao Bao's talent, so I taught him swordsmanship. I cannot be considered a master."
Seeing that Fang Duobing was really unwilling and Su Ci rejected her, He Xiaohui could only say with regret: "It's this brat who doesn't know what's good for him. It's his loss that he didn't take you as his master.
I don't know who the master he mentioned is. Every time I asked him to become a disciple, he refused, saying that he already had a master. When I asked him who his master was, he refused to tell me. I don't know if he created a master out of thin air.
Really, I must have owed this little devil in my previous life, and I’m here to collect the debt in this life.”
When talking about the latter part, He Xiaohui looked like she had a headache and was at a loss as to what to do with him.
