Chapter 175 Hu Xinxin's Old, Slippery Shoulders



Time quietly ticked to ten o'clock.

Hu Xinxin finally understood the meaning of the phrase, "I was sealed by the blanket."

At that moment, she was admiring the bracelet on her left wrist with great satisfaction.

In a great mood, she gave her husband a rare "good morning bite".

In an instant, he broke free from the seal, and his whole being became exceptionally energetic.

As it turns out, no matter how powerful the "sealing technique" is, it can't compare to the "little stove" in one's arms that can "absorb people's souls"!

Zhang Long felt that if he didn't get out of bed soon, he would be completely finished here today.

Before leaving, he pinched the two snow-white mounds beneath him, then rushed into the bathroom with lightning speed.

It seems that as long as I run fast enough, the cold can't catch me.

He felt alive again after taking a refreshing hot shower.

However, his good mood didn't last long. The moment Zhang Long opened the bathroom door and stepped out, he was brought back to reality.

"Wow, this is way too cold!"

There are no gaps in the room, so where did this evil wind come from?

He quickly put on a new down jacket, which made him feel a little better.

Hu Xinxin couldn't help but giggle when she saw Zhang Long like this.

Zhang Long glanced sideways and another surge of evil fire rose up.

It turned out that the other person's shoulder was shaking, and the blanket slipped off the shoulder, revealing that milky white patch of snow.

Now a phrase flashed through his mind: "old shoulders and extremely slippery," but he wasn't sure if it was the right description.

Perhaps feeling that she had gained Zhang's mother's approval, Hu Xinxin became even more unrestrained than before.

The two lingered in the room for another half hour before Zhang's mother urged them to come downstairs for dinner once again.

Another half hour passed after they took a shower and put on makeup. Just as they came downstairs, the last dish was ready.

Clearly, Zhang's mother had a good grasp of the lifestyle habits of these young people.

Everyone eats a simple lunch; if they didn't get up so late, they would usually skip lunch altogether.

After dinner, Zhang Long and his wife were deported yet again. After all, what can you expect two young people who know nothing about cooking to do in the kitchen?

So the two young people rolled their eyes and went out to wander around aimlessly.

After declining Jun's invitation to warm themselves by the fire, the two headed towards the stream downstream from the village.

This time, Zhang Long didn't take Hu Xinxin to the place where he set off fireworks last time, but instead went further downstream.

Looking at the babbling brook in front of me, these oddly shaped stones stand in the stream in a well-organized manner, creating a unique scene.

Having lived in Beijing and Shanghai for a long time, Hu Xinxin rarely saw such scenery and found it very novel!

This kind of scene can only be seen in more remote rural areas. Looking towards the village, wisps of smoke rise from the chimneys.

It evokes a feeling of withered vines, old trees, and crows at dusk, along with a small bridge, flowing water, and a humble dwelling.

Hu Xinxin seems to have an innate eye for beauty, taking photos from various angles with her phone.

The photos that were taken left Zhang Long completely astonished.

"Are we even looking at the same view?"

Zhang Long almost blurted out "Damn it!" but then said somewhat dejectedly, "Do you have to be so outstanding, bro? You're going to lose me, my baby, if you keep going like this."

"Goose, goose, goose!" came the familiar call of geese again.

Zhang Long pretended not to know and turned his head to look around.

Hu Xinxin's curiosity was piqued by Zhang Long's actions: "Baby, what are you looking at?"

He had been waiting for this moment, and said softly, "Baby, where can I hear the goose calling?"

"It's been so long since I've had braised goose in an iron pot!"

Hu Xinxin was furious when she realized she had been tricked. She quickly stepped forward and hugged the 3-year-old and 264-month-old baby.

She bit down on the baby's earlobe. The baby, who was about to struggle, went limp when he felt the warmth from the earlobe.

This was a vital point that Hu Xinxin discovered yesterday. Zhang, who was originally very strong, had his Iron Shirt and Golden Bell Cover techniques, which he had cultivated for more than 20 years, broken after his weakness was discovered.

He almost plopped down on the floor, but a smug look flashed in Hu's eyes.

It's like a little fox that's stolen a chicken; it's very comical.

So, before the baby could resist, she put her little hands, which were red from the cold, directly onto his stomach.

"hiss!"

This really took half of Zhang Long's life, and even the feeling of helplessness from having his weak point breached disappeared.

However, after taking out the little fox's two paws, he put them back in her hands.

The little fox gave Zhang Long a knowing look, and then the two of them happily embraced.

However, this scene looks a bit strange no matter how you look at it.

At this moment, Hu Xinxin was standing at the back, while Zhang Long was in front.

Only after he could no longer feel the cold did he remove the little fox's two paws.

There's not much to do here in winter. The scenery is unique, but it's only good for viewing from a distance.

Playing in the water is out of the question; the icy, bone-chilling cold will treat everyone who dares to play in the water equally.

Truly, absolutely fair!

The two strolled hand in hand along the country lane, skipping and hopping their way back.

Yes, the division of labor is quite clear.

Hu Xinxin was responsible for jumping onto Zhang Long's back, and Zhang Long was responsible for walking back.

The main problem is that people wear too many layers in winter, which diminishes the fun of carrying them. (You all know what I mean, right?)

It wasn't until she was almost at the village entrance that Hu Xinxin set foot on this land again.

Being stared at by so many strangers, even this girl from the North felt a little shy.

When I got home, I found Jun Ge alone by the fire at the door.

This made Zhang Long a little curious: Why was He Jun so well-behaved this year?

In previous years, at this time, he could only be found at the village's mahjong table.

Zhang Long patted his girlfriend's bottom and said, "Go back and check how the food is being prepared."

As she spoke, she gestured with her chin toward Jun Ge, "I'll go over and see what's going on."

However, Jun was still looking down, seemingly lost in thought, and didn't notice Zhang Long approaching.

Suddenly, a cigarette appeared in front of him. "What are you thinking about, matters of state?"

"Let me have a smoke first, to clear my head."

Upon seeing that it was Zhang Long, Jun Ge's face revealed a smile that was more like a grimace.

He was also wondering how to bring it up.

"Brother Jun, what's wrong? Tell me and I'll give you some advice. Maybe I can help you out. Don't look so gloomy during the New Year."

Zhang Long took a deep drag on his cigarette and said.

Now he is someone who has the right to say that.
