Salad Days - Chapter 23

After the show, Bai Jin had to resume boxing training after a few days off. He took a few photos of Bai Er and sent them to Jiang Shen. Jiang Shen thought about it and took a photo of tony and sent it back.

Dog hair and Shen Shubao were sitting on the ridge fishing loach, the two took off their shoes and their feet were immersed in the ditch.

“Aren’t you ready to take the junior high school?” Chen Maoxiu held the fishing rod. He and Shen Shubao sat in the middle and left Jiang Shen.

Jiang Shen nodded: “If I find a professional dance teacher who is willing to teach me, I won’t go there, and I will learn to dance wholeheartedly.”

Gou Mao sighed: “It’s so good, I don’t want to go to school either.”

Shen Shubao snorted: “What can you do without going to school?

“It’s as if you think about what you’re doing.” Chen Maoxiu waved the pole to beat Shen Shubao. “You’re not going to study!”

Shen Shubao kicked the dog hair off Jiang Tian through Jiang Shen: “Ordinary people do not understand the university entrance exam? You can’t even do the first step, why don’t you want to be an ordinary person? Think you are a child of destiny?”

Dog hair: “…”

Jiang Shen watched helplessly as the two brothers fought in chaos, chasing from Tiange to Tianwei, and working hard to kick the water in the ditch to each other’s face… He sighed and took off his shoes to follow Tiange.

“Don’t fight!” Jiang Shen shouted with his hands in his mouth, “I will be scolded by adults when they see me!”

Shen Shubao and Chen Maoxiu ignored him.

Jiang Shen had to akimbo to watch them play.

The sun in the village was hot in the summer, and Jiang Shen was covered with sweat all over his face. Even under the shade of the tree, it was not much cooler. He used the water temperature in the ditch to rub his calf for a while, and when he raised his head, he saw an unknown person. Man standing in the field looking at him.

The man was obviously not from the village or town. The white shirt and black pants on his body looked like expensive silk, and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet was ordinary.

“Jiang Shen?” The other party suddenly called his name.

Jiang Shen lowered his head to say hello, and said cautiously: “Are you?”

The man’s eyes fell on his feet, frowning, and his voice dropped coldly: “Your teacher hasn’t taught you, is the dancer’s foot a lifeblood?”

Jiang Shen: “…”

Shen Junyi sat in the living room of the Jiang family like a fairy.

Unlike Zhou Luoxiang, Shen Junyi was taller. He looked completely different from a 40-year-old man. His hair was also extremely short shaved, his nose bridge was tall, and his eyes were thin and long.

Tan Lingling was careful to pour water into him. The couple stood on the side and did not dare to sit at the table.

Jiang Shen stood rigidly in front of him.

Shen Junyi rested one arm on the table, he seldom smiled, and looked sternly: “Take off your shoes.”

“…” Jiang Shen didn’t know what he wanted to do, but he obediently took off the shoes he had just changed.

Shen Junyi beckoned: “Come here.”

Jiang Shen walked over.

Shen Junyi leaned his shoulders and asked him to turn his back. His palms pressed carefully against the boy’s waist and his eyes fell on Jiang Shen’s legs.

“Demiplie” Shen Junyi ordered.

Jiang Shen conditioned reflexively and made a ballet squat pose.

Shen Junyi: “Brother let Grandplie (Grandplie)”

Jiang Shen did so.

Shen Junyi was silent for a while, then commanded: “Get up.”

Jiang Shen straightened up, he looked at Shen Junyi somewhat ignorantly, and then looked at Tan Lingling and Jiang Luoshan.

Shen Junyi seemed to think about it for a while. He turned to Jiang Shen’s parents and said, “I want to talk to Ling Zun.”

Shen Junyi, who went to Shanghai to study dance, accommodation and cultural classes, will help Jiang Shen solve the problem, but the one-year tuition for his disciples is not cheap, and everything there is to listen to him, hard and boring.

After finishing his conditions, Shen Junyi asked Jiang Shen: “If you have any requirements, you can mention them.”

Jiang Shen thought about it and said, “Zhou Luoxiang, Teacher Zhou has also found me.”

Shen Junyi paused, his slender eyes looked at the boy with no expression: “You are a good seedling, it is not surprising that he is looking for you, as for me and him…” Suddenly, Shen Junyi’s mouth was slightly picky, and she showed disdain ‘S smile, “He doesn’t deserve to be compared with me.”

Tan Lingling and Jiang Luoshan sent Shen Junyi out of the yard all the way. Jiang Shen followed, and before leaving, Shen Junyi suddenly asked him: “How long have your chickens been raised?”

Although Jiang Shen didn’t understand why he asked so, he honestly said: “More than two years.”

Shen Junyi nodded, he finally looked at Jiang Shen and said, “Think about it, I will wait for your call.”

Although they are parents, Tan Lingling and Jiang Luoshan are really too busy to help in the dance profession. They are all about the future. Mothers are always more worried.

“Teacher Zhou you said.” Tan Lingling nagged and asked her son, “How are the conditions? Is everything covered? How much is the tuition for one year?”

Jiang Shen shook his head: “He didn’t tell me much at the time.”

Tan Lingling sighed: “Tuition is not impossible to grind your teeth…”

Jiang Shen mumbled: “It’s too expensive…”

Jiang Luoshan frowned and trained him: “What is expensive, you don’t have to worry about it, just think about which teacher you should talk to.”

Tan Lingling worried: “I think that Mr. Shen is so strict, won’t he hit the students?”

“The masters who used to sing operas did not beat apprentices, they couldn’t beat them.” Jiang Luoshan looked straight through.

Tan Lingling glared at him: “What are you talking about, in this age, which child is not a baby.” She thought about it and asked her son, “What about Teacher Zhou, how is your temper? How is your temper?”

Jiang Shen thought about it: “Is better than Mr. Shen…”

Tan Lingling entangled again and sighed hard: “Hey!”

Jiang Shen also talked to Bai Jin on the phone when choosing a teacher. The boys were straight.

“I don’t like that Zhou Luoxiang.”

Jiang Shen curiously said: “Why?”

Bai Jinyi: “Watching your show that day, he was sitting in front, the face of the oil head was like a white face, and he covered his nose with a handkerchief all the way.

Jiang Shen said with a guilty conscience: “…I’m still wearing a skirt to dance, not to be a girl…”

“You’re different.” Bai Jinyi’s blindfolded double label, “You are a cygnet. Of course, cygnets can wear skirts.”

Jiang Shen was amused by him.

“And if you follow Shen Junyi, you will be able to come to Shanghai.” Bai Jinyi’s tone was a bit stiff, “I am also in Shanghai.”

Jiang Shen couldn’t help but ask him: “Do you work hard every day?”

Bai Jinyi: “Why isn’t it hard to fight a boxing?” After a pause, he said, “But it should be harder than you.”

Jiang Shen thought for a while and said seriously: “How could I not be beaten every day, it must be your hard work.”

Bai Jinyi: “…”

The two chatted for a while. Bai Jinyi suddenly thought of something and asked, “Will you come over next weekend?”

Jiang Shen: “What’s wrong?”

Bai Jinyi: “We have a friendly match in the boxing hall. I participated in the Junior Group lightweight. You and Lai Song can come and watch together.”

“Is it okay?!” Jiang Shen’s eyes lighted up, excitedly, “Will you come to power?”

Bai Jinyi snorted: “I participated, and of course I will come to power.” He added, “Come and see me fight, by the way, stay with me at night and play in Shanghai for two days.”

Jiang Shen was apparently attracted by “play” again, looking forward to: “Is Shanghai fun?”

Bai Jin laughed lightly, he said lightly: “With me, of course it is fun.”

Train tickets to Shanghai can only be booked in the city. Jiang Shen let Lai Song buy the tickets with him one day in advance. Before leaving, he was even more nervous than he went to the stage.

“Should I make a banner for him?” Jiang Shen asked on the high-speed rail.

Lai Song looked baffled: “What banner?”

Jiang Shen made a gesture and said seriously, “Come on that kind of banner at the Games, buy a few more speakers, and we will blow it together when Bai Jin comes to power.”

Lai Song almost didn’t laugh when he clutched his stomach. “It’s nothing like a small friendly match inside a boxing hall. According to your ideas, you can’t buy a neon sign in the building to cheer for him when he participates in the national youth competition. No?”

Jiang Shen was shocked and quickly waved his hand, to be honest: “No, I’m too poor, I can’t afford that.”

“…” Lai Song, “I’m welcome, you don’t have to give me a face here.”

Jiang Shen: “?”

The boxing gym where Bai Jinyi trained is in the Chongming District, where there is the very famous Chongming Island Cycling Tour. Of course, this is what Lai Song Baidu told Jiang Shen.

When the two of them got off the train, the driver of the Bai family received the boxing gym. Compared with Jiang Shen’s restraint and caution, Lai Song entered the court all the way, but he did not violate it.

Before seeing Bai Jinyi, many people had already greeted him.

“I was the runner-up of the National Junior Group heavyweight last year.” Lai Song looked at Jiang Shen a little proudly, “Most of them know me.”

Jiang Shen looked at him with special admiration for the first time.

Lai Song was very helpful and pointed to himself: “Senior, understand, senior.”

Jiang Shen: “Did the champion come today?”

Lai Song froze for a moment, he smiled, and snorted a little scornfully: “Knowing I’m coming he won’t come.”

Jiang Shen: “?”

Lai Song sat outside, he patted the seat next to him and motioned to Jiang Shen to sit next to him.

“Boxing is not like you dancing.” Lai Song’s serious expression is different from Bai Jin. He is more like an adult, and the young man’s eyebrows seem to have the old wind.

“Our fists.” He smiled and waved his hand. “It’s much dirtier than your dance shoes.”
