Chapter 75: Put on Zhou Dongmeng's coat
It's the same as yesterday.
Chen Xiang met Zhou's mother on her way home.
She squeezed the brakes, got out of the car quickly, smiled at her mother-in-law, and called out, "Mom."
Zhou's mother came over holding something.
She asked with concern: "It's cold today, come on, put on your cotton jacket quickly."
As she spoke, the woman had already shaken out her cotton padded jacket and held it up, urging her to put it on quickly. All Chen Xiang had to do was turn her back, lift her arms and put them into the sleeves.
Zhou's mother behind him helped lift the collar up.
In a blink of an eye, the cotton jacket was securely worn on Chen Xiang's body.
Before this, there had been a hot water bottle wrapped in the lining of the cotton shirt. Now that she was wearing it, the subtle warmth instantly seeped into her body.
She turned back to face Zhou's mother and said with a smile, "Mom, it's so warm."
"It's warm."
Mother Zhou curled her lips into a smile and reached out to start buttoning Chen Xiang's shirt.
From the chin to the waist.
Falling from above...
To button the bottom few buttons, Zhou's mother had to bend down slightly.
Chen Xiang slowly lowered her eyes and could only see the back of her mother-in-law's head, which was covered with a cotton hat. As she breathed, puffs of white mist floated out from her face and then melted into the air.
"alright."
After buttoning her clothes, Zhou's mother stood up.
He turned around and picked up the hot water bottle beside him, stuffed it under Chen Xiang's clothes and into her belly, and said, "Hold it tightly, we women can't catch a cold."
Chen Xiang was afraid that it would fall off.
He quickly covered the hot water kettle in his arms.
She was originally wearing a cotton jacket, and after putting on Zhou Dongmeng's cotton jacket, she looked even rounder.
At this moment, a pair of hands wearing thick gloves were carefully pressing on the stomach.
Chen Xiang blinked her big eyes and looked at Zhou's mother.
This adorable expression looks just like a penguin patting its belly.
Zhou's mother reached out and pulled out the scarf that Chen Xiang had buried under her collar, then wrapped it around her twice to cover half of the girl's face.
After finishing all this, she said, "Okay, let's go home quickly."
"Um."
Chen Xiang nodded.
She held the kettle of hot water in her arms, took small steps, and sat down on the seat very consciously.
Zhou's mother got on the bike and carried her home.
The water bottle my mother-in-law brought was just ordinary military water, made of iron, with a two-finger-wide mouth, and the water would never spill once the lid was screwed on.
Fill it with hot water and hold it in your arms like a warm baby.
Very warm, very warm...
Chen Xiang sat in the back, swinging her feet happily.

About half an hour later.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finally arrived home.
It was cold today, so there was no rush to pack up the car. Chen Xiang jumped out, picked up the water bottle and the money bag, and trotted back to the house.
The kitchen is right behind the door.
The warmth in the air and the aroma of rice filled her face, immediately arousing the gluttony in her stomach.
Chen Xiang quickened her pace and went straight into the east room.
She shouted to the man sitting on the kang, "Dad, we're back."
Zhou's father had nothing to do so he got some bamboo strips to weave earthen baskets, planning to sell them at the commune market when the weather got warmer.
When he saw Chen Xiang coming in, he quickly moved his things to the side.
Father Zhou: "Xiaoxiang, come and sit here quickly. It's warm here. We just lit a fire."
Chen Xiang took off her gloves, bent down and placed her hands on the kang, feeling the scorching temperature gradually warming her cold fingertips.
She raised her dark deer eyes and looked at Zhou's father.
Then he asked, "Dad, how are you feeling today? Are you feeling better?"
