There has been something wrong with the people in the martial arts school recently. He hasn’t heard any boxing sounds all day long, but instead there are some meowing and squeaking noises.
The cause was that there were too many mosquitoes in the summer, and the disciples were bitten all over their bodies after practicing in the yard for a short time. Although Xu Hang had prepared some medicine, the men were sweating profusely and still attracted mosquitoes, so he simply threw some camphor grass and asked Duan Yelin to plant it.
The grass has grown, and the mosquitoes have also gone. but there are a lot of wild cats.
They all looked like they had smoked marijuana, some collapsed to the ground, some rolled on the ground, and some meowed.
At first glance, those burly and rough men felt as if their hearts had been touched by cotton wormwood, it was soft and tender.
So when Duan Yelin walked in, he saw those guys, each with a cat, playing happily and teasing the cat, “Come, meow for this lord.”
Duan Yelin’s temples throbbed twice, and then he slapped the guy so hard that he almost vomited blood: “How about this lord meow for you?”
The disciples almost fell to the ground when they heard the voice. They turned around and saw Duan Yelin standing there like the King of Hell: “Fine ah, none of you needs to practice boxing anymore, right? Go out and run around the town and come back!”
Then the disciples ran out in panic, and Duan Yelin yelled again, “Just get out by yourself and put the cats down!”
When everyone in the martial arts school had left and the cats had all fled in fear, Duan Yelin looked down and saw a white kitten with yellow markings that was not afraid of him. It was walking back and forth at his feet and then urinated.
Duan Yelin picked up the kitten by the scruff of its neck, placed it on his shoulder, and went to the medical hall next door as if presenting a treasure.
“Shaotang, look what I brought you…” Duan Yelin had a bright smile on his face, but before he stepped over the threshold, he saw a thin, slightly hunched back. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat, retracted his foot, and planned to leave quietly.
As soon as he turned around, he was called back: “Come back!”
Ai…
So he could only walk in reluctantly and greet him, “Fourth Uncle… you’re here.”
“Hmph!” Qiao Daosang walked over with his hands behind his back and a gloomy face. “You still remember that I’m your uncle? Look at what you look like now, huh? You’re not a commander anymore, you don’t lead the army anymore, you dress so shabbily, and… you even have a cat?!”
Here it comes again. For the past two years, whenever Qiao Daosang came, he would scold him with the same words, chattering endlessly, which was even longer than the old lady’s foot binding.
Duan Yelin glanced in Xu Hang’s direction. Xu Hang was grinding medicine happily and didn’t pay any attention to him, who was suffering at all.
Duan Yelin could only wait until he was tired of scolding before he could let the matter go. Sure enough, after scolding for a while, Qiao Daosang’s voice was a little bit weak. Unexpectedly, Xu Hang suddenly interrupted and asked Qiao Daosang, “Fourth Uncle, are you thirsty?”
Qiao Daosang coughed twice, feeling very uncomfortable: “I am a little thirsty.”
A cup of tea was served and cooled down.
Qiao Daosang took two sips, and his throat felt better. He started to nag and scold again.
Duan Yelin: “……”
This is truly his ‘considerate’ and ‘kind’ Shaotang.
Finally, after scolding Duan Yelin until the cat on his shoulder fell asleep, Xu Hang stood up, pressed Qiao Daosang’s shoulders, and asked him to sit on the recliner. He softly said, “Fourth Uncle, it’s uncomfortable to stand for a long time. I made a plaster for you. I’ll help you apply it now. Just lie here and cool down. After applying a few plasters, you won’t need to be afraid of pain on rainy days anymore.”
The hot plaster was pressed on the acupuncture points, and the medicinal power penetrated into the acupuncture points, making Qiao Daosang groan in comfort. Especially Xu Hang’s superb kneading technique, which rubbed and kneaded the fire in Qiao Daosang’s heart until it disappeared.
But he was still stubborn: “Don’t think you can bribe me like this… hiss… a little to the left, ai, ai, ai, yes, that’s right, that’s right, this is the spot.”
“Do you feel comfortable?”
“Comfortable… well, it’s alright.”
Seeing that Qiao Daosang had closed his eyes and taken a nap, Duan Yelin took Xu Hang’s hand and hid in the inner room. He bit his lips anxiously, as if he wanted to get back at the grievance of being scolded just now. Xu Hang struggled twice, then opened his lips and let him come in.
“You just watched me getting scolded?”
Xu Hang’s lips were glistening with water, and he took a breath: “You deserve it.”
Duan Yelin raised his chin and said cunningly, “Are you blaming me for only indulging myself last night and retaliating against me here?”
Last night, Xiao Yan came to visit, and the two of them suddenly started to compete in drinking. They were so stubborn that they not only drank all the wine Xiao Yan brought but also drank all the wine in the wine cellar. In the end, they even opened the tonic wine that Xu Hang had buried in the yard.
This tonic wine was used by Xu Hang to treat patients with hidden diseases, but these two dirty bastards drank it all up.
It’s good this time, Duan Yelin entered the room in a daze, turned over, grabbed Xu Hang, and asked like a little boy. Xu Hang had been with him for so many years, and this was the first time that he almost fainted from the very beginning.
Having gotten what he wanted while drunk, Duan Yelin was so satisfied that he had no idea what to do. He partied like this for most of the night, causing Xu Hang to put aside his pride and hold his waist, hoping that he would finish soon.
From Xu Hang’s perspective, he will never know that the less skillful his rejection is, the more Duan Yelin will enjoy it.
The whimpering sounds in the room were heartbreaking and only stopped the next day.
The worst thing was that Duan Yelin couldn’t remember the whole thing, it was just vague and sporadic. The clearest thing was that when it was over, he wiped the sweat off Xu Hang’s neck and kissed his adam apple. The trembling adam apple was as pitiful as a small dewdrop shaking on a lotus leaf.
He can’t think too much, or he’ll get horny again.
Xu Hang gritted his teeth: “You still know?”
Duan Yelin smiled and pressed Xu Hang against the door, his lower body pressed against him, conveying his warmth to him through his clothes: “Of course, the effect of the alcohol still hasn’t exhausted from me.”
Duan Yelin, who was no longer the commander, showed his ruffian spirit to the fullest. Xu Hang’s face turned pale. He suddenly stretched out his hand and hit Duan Yelin with great force. Duan Yelin did not expect Xu Hang to use this trick. He raised his left arm to block it, and then he was met with Xu Hang’s punch in the lower abdomen. He jumped and avoided it.
Although he knew that Xu Hang had some skills, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. Today was the first time the two of them had competed with each other.
Each move is very distinctive. He knows how to hit the opponent’s vital points with every move of his, and the emphasis is on speed. There is no fixed strategy, he just goes everywhere there are loopholes.
His Shaotang ah, even the way he hits people is to hit the points he likes.
Duan Yelin said while accepting, “Alright, alright, I won’t drink more from now on.”
Grabbing Xu Hang’s paws and pulling him into his arms, Duan Yelin gave him a kiss on the side of his face. His triumphant look made Xu Hang want to hit him on the head.
“Anyway, I’m telling you, I’m going to visit the surrounding towns to see patients starting tomorrow, so you’ll have to spend the next few days on your own. The aftereffects of that tonic wine will wear off slowly, so you can drink some bitter melon tea to cool off. I’ll only be gone for about ten days, and then I’ll be back.”
“More than ten days?!” Duan Yelin’s eyebrows almost flew up. “No, I want to go too.”
Xu Hang curled his lips and said, “Fourth Uncle is here, where are you going if you don’t stay with him?”
Duan Yelin’s face immediately showed a big sadness.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and then he picked Xu Hang up and said, “Then I’ll book up the ten days worth today; otherwise, Laozi will be half dead by the time you come back!”
Before Xu Hang had the time to struggle, he heard the cat meowing and the sound of its little paws scratching the door.
“Meow~”
Taking advantage of this, Xu Hang kicked his leg and said, “Let go! The cat is outside.”
Duan Yelin twisted his neck and said, “Pretend it’s dead.”
There was another dull cough outside the door, and Qiao Daosang interrupted at an inopportune moment: “Pretend that I’m dead?”
“……”
When things go wrong, the whole world is against you. Duan Yelin completely gave up.
Unable to hold back his laughter, Xu Hang jumped out of Duan Yelin’s arms, opened the door, and went out.
When Duan Yelin walked out of the room, the kitten was already lying on Qiao Daosang’s laps, and yawning. The old man was stroking the kitten’s neck and humming Huangmei tunes. Duan Yelin stretched out his hand to take the cat away, but Qiao Daosang slapped the back of his hand hard.
“Don’t move!” Qiao Daosang rolled his eyes at Duan Yelin. “Go light a cigarette for me.”
Duan Yelin looked at the red mark on the back of his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: “Didn’t you, old man, just complain about my cat? Now you like it so much?”
Qiao Daosang’s expression tenses: “I don’t like it, my laps are just cold, so I use Ah Mi to warm them up.”
The older you get, the more childish you are.
“Ah Mi is a very common name. Since we’re going to raise it, we might as well give it a different name.” Xu Hang had already taken out two bowls specifically for this little guy.
Naming the cat was a bit difficult for Duan Yelin. He stroked his chin and said, “I was the one picking up this cat. My cat should have the same last name as me. It should sound nice and easy to remember. It should also be loud and impressive so that people can tell it’s my cat. Hmm… I have one now!”
The one old and one small cat in the yard all looked up at Duan Yelin. Duan Yelin’s black eyes were shining, and he rarely showed the demeanor of a well-read student.
“Just call it ‘Duan, Zhen, Hua’!”
Xu Hang: “……”
Qiao Daosang: “……”
The cat: “Wu…”
A gust of wind swept through the yard, making it so awkward.
Shocked by this extraordinary name, Xu Hang looked a little indigestion. He drank the cold tea in the cup to calm himself down, then turned to Qiao Daosang and said, “Fourth Uncle, I think calling it Ah Mi is also good.”
Qiao Daosang nodded: “I agree, I agree.”
Duan Yelin was not happy: “Why, doesn’t it sound good?”
Qiao Daosang didn’t have the energy to refute such an obvious question: “Call that crappy name of yours and see if it responds.”
“It will definitely like it!” Duan Yelin’s self-confidence was soaring, and he called to the cat proudly, like a drill instructor calling out the names of new recruits, “Duan Zhenhua!”
The cat stretched lazily, looked at the big guy’s expectant eyes, licked its paws, and finally tilted its head and responded softly.
“Meow~”
