Chapter 330: Skating, Helping Yu Li, Yu Li's Yan Return(1/3)
Bangge stayed away all night last night, and no one went out to look for him.
Of course, Si Zhu is not a human being and may go out to look for him. Anyway, there is no light in his room at night.
As for her mother and her aunt, they spent the whole night desperately trying to fawn over Xu Damao.
Just look at how they still need to support each other when they go home.
You know how difficult it is today, but the effect is still very good.
At least Xu Damao could give them a smile when they left.
This reassures them more than anything else, awesome? Which one is that?
They don't want to know at all now. They just want to go home and take a nap.
The next day, after Xu Damao had breakfast, he planned to go out.
At the door, I met Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiefang, who were sticking to their posts.
I greeted them and poured them some chicken soup for the soul.
Under the excited gazes of the two people, Xu Damao left here leisurely.
After turning two corners, Xu Damao arrived at his aunt's house.
In fact, he came here today simply because he wanted to spend time with the two of them.
I feel really lonely during the Chinese New Year, and I don’t have any other thoughts at all.
Little Taozi was really happy when she saw him coming.
"Godfather"
He immediately hugged Xu Damao's legs and picked up the child.
What greeted him was his aunt's smiling face.
When the two of them were misaligned, Xiao Taozi pinched her lightly when she wasn't paying attention.
This face is still full of collagen, and this is all my own fault.
The aunt looked at him angrily and hurriedly went to make tea for him.
Smart people sometimes don't need to say anything, she will think of what you mean.
Auntie obviously knew what Xu Damao meant by coming here today.
It was freezing cold and the aunt locked the door, ready to enjoy the fun of the family of three.
The two of them were switching roles to play with their sister-in-law, but the child's energy was always limited.
After lunch, I felt sleepy not long after.
After the aunt placed Xiao Taozi, she slowly walked to Xu Damao's side.
When he wasn't paying attention, he used a secret blue dragon to catch him, and then changed it to a monkey to steal peaches.
Xu Damao was immediately defeated, and he wanted to give a righteous shout.
I just came to play with the child, but his instinctive reaction betrayed him immediately.
As evening approached, I was kicked out by my aunt without even being allowed to eat.
She even said that her bones were about to fall apart. She obviously didn't exert much strength, okay?
Could it be that the inertia from last night has been retained until now?
If you don't understand it, just stop thinking about it, and Xu Damao doesn't care.
When he arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, Liu Guangfu and Yan Jiefang were still guarding.
I am really touched by their spirit, but I cannot treat them badly.
So two packs of cigarettes appeared out of thin air in Xu Damao's satchel.
Standing at the door on this cold day, there is nothing more refreshing than smoking a cigarette.
I walked up to them and praised them again.
A large bowl of chicken soup was poured into the mouths of two people as if it was free of charge.
When the two people regained their energy, a pack of cigarettes was thrown to them each.
As for whether they smoke it themselves or exchange it for money, that's not up to him.
Xu Damao returned to his room and lay comfortably on the bed.
It felt boring tossing and turning, so I got up and bought some food and drinks from the system store.
Put it on the table and start pouring and drinking.
Xu Damao slept very comfortably that night, and no one came to disturb him.
The next morning, while waiting for Zhou Xiaobai after dinner, he was also teaching several children to continue painting.
"Big brother."
Xu Damao looked up and saw that there were two pairs of "running knife" shoes hanging on the handlebars of Zhou Xiaobai's bicycle today.
It seems that she is planning to go skating, but this sport is one of the most attractive activities nowadays.
In the past, in Sijiu City, except for those disciples of the Eight Banners, they could skate.
Ordinary people do not have suitable sports activities in winter.
It was not until after liberation that the Shichahai "People's Swimming Ground" in Sijiu City froze and became a natural skating rink.
There were basically no activities at that time, so ice skating was very popular for people at that time.
It is the most attractive sport in the long winter, so for people who are bored at home, skating is an irresistible winter temptation.
In the 1960s, even sports schools set up speed skating training classes on the shores of Shicha Sea.
All their students are training at the Shichahai Ice Arena.
These students are wearing the most fashionable and eye-catching "running knives" of this era.
At that time, people in Sijiucheng wore skates, and the emphasis was on "Tianjin's shoes, Black Dragon's knife."
A pair of shoes costs thirty or forty yuan, which can be considered a top-notch purchase.
The average family simply cannot afford to buy a pair of those things.
Wouldn’t it be nice to go to Laomo once for shopping and then come back and brag about your achievements for a year?
Wouldn't it be nice to spend the money you spent on buying two pairs of those things and switch them to bicycles that will always be popular?
Even many children with special needs share one pair.
Of course, there are many ways for ordinary people to do it. If they can't afford a running knife, they have to find their own way.
People modified it very simply. They put steel bars or steel sheets on the wooden boards and tied them under the shoes. At that time, people called these homemade shoes "Ling shoes".
Until the 1970s and 1980s, it was the most glorious era for skating in Sijiucheng.
By that time, the price of running knives will also come down. You can say it is to make up for regrets or to retaliate against consumption.
Anyway, almost every family in 49 cities has one or more pairs of skates.
Skating has also become a skill to be proud of, and some families even form groups to skate.
But the 1970s and 1980s were still an era of scarcity.
Skates are also passed down from generation to generation. A pair of skates may be passed down from grandfather to son, and son to grandson.
After letting the children go home, Xu Damao quickly took Zhou Xiaobai into the house.
Let me raise my body temperature first before talking about running so far in this cold weather.
He put Zhou Xiaobai's hands under his armpits and hugged her tightly.
This allowed her body temperature to rise quickly, looking at the girl nestled in her arms.
Her two cheeks were flushed with cold, which made her look ten thousand times better than wearing blush.
Xu Damao decided to help her warm her face, so he slowly lowered his head.
As a result, the blush grew bigger and bigger, and gradually spread to her earlobes and neck.
...
At this time, it was very lively on the edge of Haizi. There were skaters, skateboarders, roller skates, and spinning tops.
The simplest way to skate is to run for a certain distance on the ice and then stop suddenly.
Stretch your legs straight and slide several meters away. Of course, you can also squat down suddenly or half-squat to slide far away.
Sometimes we can’t just look at the distance, but also the courage of the person.
And the strength of your balance ability is related to whether you can play tricks.
For example, stand on one leg and lift the other leg back, parallel to the ice surface. At the same time, lower your waist and parallel to the ice surface, open your arms, raise your head, and make a flying posture like a swallow.
There are even more powerful ones that can turn somersaults and then slide without moving at all.
