"Twenty ... Twenty ... Four ..." The trembling arm straightened again, and sweaty Angela spit out the number from her mouth.
"No, it's twenty-three. That wasn't counted just now." Natalie's voice came leisurely, crunchy and magnetic, the girl sitting cross-legged under the tree was holding a book, but her eyes were narrowed. Falling on Angela.
"It's twenty-four!" Angela gasped, protesting loudly despite her breath.
"Dear Angie, Mrs. Hannah said that when you lower your body, the forearm and upper arm must be at 90 degrees, but the one you just had is at least 120 degrees, which is very, very nonstandard." Natalie smiled. Continue to say leisurely, for some reason, she likes watching Angela eat.
"Hell, you didn't reach the standard when you did it just now!" The girl said angrily. Although she knew that the longer she stayed this way, the more tired she was. 20 palm presses have been very good, not to mention special palm presses.
The so-called special palm press means that after bending the arm to 90 degrees, hold this position for a few seconds and then support it. This is a test of the body's endurance. Angela can do more than 20 standard palm presses. For her female body, it is already pretty good.
"My dear, I'm different from you. I'm practicing for the first time, so I don't need to do standard, and only do 10." Natalie covered her mouth and laughed, obviously gloating.
Damn it! If ... if you have the chance, you must take a look at her! Angela swears by the curse, and finally made the remaining two standard ones, making up 25, then threw herself to the ground, rolling her eyes and panting.
"Kriss, dear, don't lie there, get up and move around, or your exercise will be wasted." The voice came from behind him. She returned to the garden.
Angela grinned and grinned at the place where no one was, then stood up with a sigh. She started rubbing her knees and waving her arms. Although Natalie kindly handed her a towel, the girl glanced at her involuntarily. But Natalie didn't get angry. She still smiled and looked at her with a smile, and then said with her mouth: "I don't like it. I can tell my wife not to do it."
The girl rolled her eyes. She knows that grandma will not refuse her. If she says so, she will definitely stop her exercise program, but this is really not reconciled. Even though grandma sometimes lazily, However, I insist on exercising every day. If I give up because the current exercise is relatively heavy, I would be too wasteful. Besides, exercise is also very effective. Over the past few months, my lung capacity has increased, and my body has become much stronger. So how can you give up this time.
Angela made a face at Natalie. Then came straight to the plum pile. Then just hit Wing Chun on it. Today's exercise is complete.
The plum pile is not tall. It's lower than at least 2 years ago. Grandma didn't want to worry too much about Grandpa. But even so. Angela couldn't jump up like grandma. Find a stool honestly. Stepped on it.
After standing on two plum piles. Breathed a few times before. Then drank softly. Attentive began to fight. It has been more than a week since I arrived in New York. Basically adapted to the plum pile. But it was no longer the girl who would be dizzy after a few steps. And that posture was also invincible. It's a pity that lack of congenital and physical training also cannot live. Still just a flower shelf. But it was enough to bluff Natalie.
"What are you practicing? Angie?" After Angela finished jumping and jumping. Natalie couldn't help asking it with surprise.
"This is Chinese Kung Fu!" Said the girl proudly.
"Chinese Kung Fu?" Natalie blinked inexplicably. "The kind of Bruce Lee?"
"Bruce Lee? Well ... there are some." Angela thought about it, and in the case of Jeet Kune Do, she also borrowed Wing Chun's techniques. Then again, grandma is also surnamed Li, and she will not have anything to do with Bruce Lee. Inextricably related?
Aside from this idea, Angela rolled her eyes and suddenly encouraged, "Nat, would you go up and try?" "Me? But I don't know Chinese Kung Fu." Natalie shrugged.
"It doesn't matter, you can go up and try to take a few steps and feel what I just felt." Angela smiled, although Natalie knew she must have other thoughts in her heart, but looking at these one by one Plum pile, she was really curious, nodded after thinking about it, "well, I'll try it."
Angela didn't object to seeing grandma, and immediately found a stool to help Natalie stand up.
"It feels ... but it's wonderful!" Natalie stood firm after shaking on the single pile, and said in surprise, "It's obviously not high from below. Why do you feel dizzy when you stand up?"
"That's normal." Angela said proudly below, but she couldn't laugh anymore soon. After calming down, Natalie quickly walked on the plum pile, although she walked It's slow, but every step is taken steadily. I can't see it for the first time.
She's always ... so confident? Angela held her arms and looked at Natalie on the top. The girl pursed her lips and took every step seriously. The corners of her mouth were slightly curved, and her smile and concentration were really fascinating. Suddenly a little uneasy, and then
With an exclamation, Toda wanted to try to cross two di Natalie's feet on two heels at a time, with her legs spread out to almost 160 degrees, crooked, as if they would fall down at any time, I just couldn't take it anymore, so I was at a loss over the three stakes.
Keeping an eye on her Angela, she ran over before her grandma and came under the pile: "Don't mess around! Give me your hand!"
Shaky Natalie quickly grabbed Anji's stretched hands, finally relieved.
"Nat, jump down, I'll follow you." The girl originally wanted to hold her up, but was a little short, and it was not enough to tiptoe, just ask the other party to jump down.
"Is that okay? Will it hit you?" Natalie gave her a hesitant look, then looked up at the old lady talking to the maid over the garden.
"Don't worry, I will work hard, you know." Angela comforted.
"Okay, be careful." Natalie was too strenuous to keep doing this, and nodded.
"Relax, come on, one, two,
Despite Angela's voice, Natalie glared with her feet spread apart, and she felt very oppressive. Angela pulled the other's hand to drive away nervously, and greeted Natalie with her chest, and heard a flutter The other side hugged her firmly. If it wasn't for the girl to see the machine quickly, she took a few steps back at the same time, or she would be crushed to the ground, half dead.
"You, you're okay, Angie." Natalie holding Angela gasped and said, to be honest, she was really surprised at the jump, but the other party didn't answer her, Natalie She moved her body, but Angela didn't let go of her.
"Angie, what are you doing?" With her head on the girl's shoulders, the faint hair fragrance could not stop it, and the hand on her shoulder and waist, Natalie suddenly felt that her heartbeat was a little faster. .
After struggling lightly, she finally broke away from Angela's arms and looked at the other side, and the other side also looked at herself without blinking. The emerald eyes seemed to be burning something, which made her unbearable. Once again, he remembered the feeling of being stripped from his body when he first met, and his body shook.
This subtle movement was immediately felt by Angela. She let go of Natalie as if she was awake at first. Don't take a deep breath before turning to say: "Are you okay,
Natalie's face was reddish, and she didn't talk. She shook her head gently, and then she coughed, "I think I should go back, Angie."
"Why?" Angela froze. "Can't you stay for dinner?"
"Still, there may be guests at home today," Natalie explained with a sigh of relief.
Angela bit her lip and said suddenly, "Shall we go to the city centre tomorrow? Call Manny, she has complained to me on the phone several times, and she will not visit her in New York."
Although this was a temporary idea, Angela really planned to do so. For more than a week in New York, she basically stayed with her grandparents at home, and occasionally went to see their old friends with them.
And outdoor activities are not her going to Natalie ’s house, or Natalie coming to her house, or two people strolling in a nearby park, or cycling around Long Island, and when they are together, There are always some inexplicable feelings between each other, sometimes quite embarrassing. Maybe it is better to find other people to go around the city together?
"Going to the city?" Natalie looked at Angela with uncertainty.
"Yes, and ..." Angela rolled her eyes. "I have a great idea, oh, I can't tell you now, if you promise, I promise it will be exciting!"
Maybe it's because of the excitement in the girl's mouth, or maybe it's better to think that there are extra friends around, Natalie clicked: "Well, I promise you!"
I originally planned to see if I can make up 3 yesterday, but I sang another song in the morning in the square, and it may continue in the afternoon, so there are only 2 more 2k novel reading nets
