Zhao Lanxiang took her younger brother out of the car. She carefully closed the car door, and little Huzi ran back home like a whirlwind. Probably he was looking for food at home because he hadn't had enough to eat.
She took out her scarf and surrounded her face. Suddenly in the corner of her eyes, she saw a gray shadow flashed past.
Zhao Yongkang took out the car key and asked his niece in surprise, "It's freezing cold, why are you standing here and not going back to the house?"
Zhao Lanxiang said with a smile, "I am full. I want to walk around to help digestion."
She asked her uncle to get inside first and went out to "digest food." She walked through the streets and around the paths, and finally, she got more and more anxious. She couldn't help but roar, "Will you come out yourself, or will I have to pull you out?"
"I have seen you!"
Zhao Lanxiang waited for a long time, but didn't expect that He Songbai was there. When she caught a glimpse of his familiar figure earlier, she was shocked.
Not only was she surprised that he had traveled a long distance here, but she also worried about whether something had happened to him. In general, her mood was extremely complicated. After being surprised and worried, she walked in the alley and wondered about what sort of drama could happen during the Chinese New Year that made him come here...
Zhao Lanxiang's heart thumped violently, and her cheeks, which were buried in the scarf, suddenly became hot.
But after walking for so long, he shyly avoided her, and Zhao Lanxiang couldn't help but become "anxious."
After a while, a person who was hiding in the dark walked out silently.
He was wearing that black coat jacket that she made for him. The slim design of the coat made his figure looked taller. He hadn't cut his hair because there was a custom in the first month of the year, and people could not cut their hair. His flowing hair covered his forehead, and he looked unruly. It made him looked better than his usual silly uptight, and tidy look.
He was very neatly dressed, and he deliberately squeezed his hands. Unlike a country boy, he looked like he had a fashionable look, which made people's eyes shined.

Zhao Lanxiang's eyes were full of pink color. Not only she admired his young and handsome appearance, but she was also fascinated by his behavior of specially cleaned up his outward appearance to meet her especially.
He Songbai explained in a low voice, "I... I am buying vaccines for piglets."
"Your city is a big city so that I can find some medicine."
Zhao Lanxiang would believe everything he said at the moment. When he said this, Zhao Lanxiang only nodded and said, "When did you get off the train?"
"Are you hungry?"
"Do you have a place to stay?"
He Songbai nodded and answered the question one by one, "The train was at noon. I am not too hungry and had settled in the guest house."
Zhao Lanxiang thought, 'Now it's the fifth day of the new year. Is that mean he set off on the fourth?'
"You are a fool. So silly, won't I return in a few days?"
He Songbai's ears suddenly turned red, and he explained incoherently, "Really, I'm here to buy medicine."
'Also... on the way back, do some bad speculation.'
City S was too far away. City G was a relatively developed city in the south, and also rich in industrial products. Another reason is that his pig farm's budget was running out, and he had to find some way to make money. This time, he came with Li Zhong's fourth uncle.
He Songbai was very happy to do this kind of thing with the big guys for the first time. Even if he was taken as an incidental person, he was brought out to meet people from the world.
He was also more joyful that this city was happened to be his girlfriend's home. He could come and see her on the way. He didn't intend to alarm her. He just wanted to take a closer look.
It was good to see no one see where she grew up and the scenery she was familiar with. He only needed to take a look and felt satisfied.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly came down from a car. He hadn't seen enough before he was caught off guard.
He Songbai wanted to lift his legs and ran away, but as the sky was getting late, his girlfriend was still swaying in the alley. He Songbai thought about the security, and finally came out to follow her.
He lowered his head in silence. He was unable to look directly at his girlfriend's teasing expression.
Zhao Lanxiang looked up at the sky, then looked down at her watch, and shoved He Songbai. "Go, take me to your guest house."
He Songbai nodded and took Zhao Lanxiang to the guest house.
He knew the address of Zhao Lanxiang's family because he accidentally glanced at her family registration book. He always had a good memory, and he always remembers. So when he was choosing a guest house to stay, he carefully chose a place a little away from Zhao Lanxiang's home.
He pulled out a fake "marriage certificate" so Zhao Lanxiang successfully passed the front desk and could follow him into the hotel.
Zhao Lanxiang entered the room and closed the door.
"You, what are you...?"
She looked at the fake certificate in He Songbai's hands and was amazed. It was only a few days, and the man had changed his attitude completely, and she was stunned.
She carefully looked at their "marriage certificate" and smiled at He Songbai. She thought that the night was beautiful, and he was also very cute.
He Songbai coughed awkwardly and said, "Li Zhong's fourth uncle helped this."
He seemed to be angrily snatching the fake certificate, carefully and properly put it into his luggage, but his ears quietly turned blood-red.
"Don't be shy, okay, I know it's wrong."
"I won't laugh at you anymore."
Zhao Lanxiang promised.
He Songbai was so embarrassed that he was scratching the wall. No matter how anxious she was, he had to leave after finishing his business.
This is not great. Her vacation was until the eighth day of the new year... She also wants to go back to the country happily with him.
At this time, it was the Spring Festival. The customers of the guest house were sparse, the waiters were few, and the food they could provide was very light, and there was no chance to heat it.
Even after the lapse of time, even the hot water stopped. Zhao Lanxiang complained about the poor service of the guest house during the Chinese New Year, and couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Or... go to my house for a meal?" she suggested.
He Songbai heard it, and he almost stumbled against the wall.
He said, "It's alright. I have eaten."
"I can also take a cold shower. Wait a while, and I will send you back immediately."
He hurriedly took a cold shower, and when he came out, he saw his girlfriend sitting on his bed like a fairy, rummaging through the things in his bag.
Zhao Lanxiang checked the man's luggage.
Very simple.
Two sets of personal clothing, a certificate, a book, a pen, a little leftover dry food, and nothing else.
She couldn't help but took a red envelope from her pocket and stuffed it inside.
She jumped out of bed, hugged him, and kissed him.
"Happy New Year, He Songbai."
The woman's soft body filled his arms, warm and enthusiastic. The heartbeats of the two people's chests, which were connected, could be heard clearly. He Songbai, who was hugged, suddenly became dizzy. A strong sense of stimulation poured into his head and made him dizzy with happiness.
Before New Year's Eve, he regretted that he missed sending her home, but compared with the feeling in front of him, it was not worth mentioning.
But he didn't dare to offend the beautiful woman, so he stood up straight and let her hug him. After a long time, he lowered his head and covered her lips, smiled deeply, and his chest trembled.
"You too, Happy New Year."
Zhao Lanxiang was wrapped in honey and full of sweetness. She looked up to enjoy the kiss that she had longed for.

Zhao Lanxiang was dizzy after she was sent home by the man.
Jiang Jianjun came back to City G, and He Songbai also came. If they accidentally met, there was a danger of blood splashing on the road!
She immediately awakened.
Her worries were right. Sure enough, Jiang Jianjun came to her house the next day.
Zhao Juxiang, Zhao Lanxiang's cousin, was asking her how to make rice cakes. In fact, she was actually crazy about her family's pastries and wanted to eat more.
Zhao Lanxiang's eldest aunt, Zhang Hongying, brought a little fruit, but Feng Lian couldn't help it. She had to reluctantly cut her daughter's baked egg yolk pastry and gave them half.
She gritted her teeth in the kitchen and said to her husband, "The more money they have, the more they love to take advantage!"
Zhao Yongqing comforted his wife, "We are all relatives. In the future, if we have any difficulties, we will need to find them anyway."
Feng Lian snorted. "They better help."
She packed half a pound of egg yolk pastry in a small basket and walked out of the kitchen. Zhao Juxiang immediately grabbed a piece and ate it.
Zhang Hongying said with a smile, "Our Juxiang is also about to graduate. I should find a relationship for her... Niuniu is a clever child, and her cooking skill is really admirable."
"If Niuniu can advise your sister so that she can find a loved one, your eldest aunt will be grateful for your whole life."
Zhao Lanxiang chewed the crunchy apples and put down the core after she heard the words. She said lightly, "I can't give any advice. I think the old tradition has passed, and women are not suitable for entering the kitchen. In my house, for so many years, Dad is the one cooking. Did anyone say anything?"
"Thinking if Juxiang learns this and she can find her loved ones, well, let's just forget about it..."
Feng Lian was dumbfounded at her daughter's poisonous tongue.
But she felt comfortable when she heard it, and she did not stop her at all.
Zhao Lanxiang continued, "Now the standard for looking for women is to look at her culture, willingness to endure hardship, and contribution to the country. Rather than ask me to teach my sister how to cook, it's better to let me teach her how to be a person who contributes to society."
She smiled widely to show her white teeth.
Zhao Juxiang was also dumbfounded. Her face pale with anger for a while before she calmed down.
She smiled coldly. "I don't deserve the elder sister's advice. Forget it, mom. Let's stop coming here. Look at her attitude towards you, she--"
Before Zhao Juxiang's words were finished, the door rang loudly.
Everyone gathered in the room, except little Huzi, who was playing outside. Feng Lian opened the door, and a handsome and dazzling man came in.
He greeted everyone, "Aunt and uncle, I am a friend of Comrade Zhao."
"Specially came here to wish you a Happy New Year!"
Zhang Hongying's family also lived in the military compound, and Zhao Juxiang's grandfather, Zhao Xiong, happened to work under Jiang Jianjun's father. They were both familiar with this outstanding military officer since his childhood.

Zhao Juxiang was ready to speak a mean word, and the next moment, her mouth was opened so big that she could cram eggs inside.
Zhao Juxiang's words were choked in her throat. Her eyes were as bright as the daylight.
"Jiang, Brother Jiang?"
Jiang Jianjun inspected the people in the room and frowned slightly.
Zhao Lanxiang saw Jiang Jianjun at the moment, and she thought of He Songbai, who was also in City G. She felt like her head was swollen.
She put away the sneer on her face and sat upright. She patiently waited until Jiang Jianjun finished introducing himself, and interrupted his next words.
"Let's go out and talk about something?"
Jiang Jianjun saw the woman's slightly uncomfortable expression. He smiled slightly and followed her out.
Zhao Lanxiang threw the box of nutrients he brought over back to him and said angrily, "You have no shame?"
"Do you really not understand people's words or just pretending not to understand?"
"I have someone I like, and I hope you don't cause trouble."
Jiang Jianjun's face couldn't help but darkened and tensed. Her face, which was full of dislike, was a big blow for him, especially Zhao Lanxiang's attitude.
But he saw her as a young girl full of vitality and anxiety, which he had not seen for many years.
Jiang Jianjun tried his best to ask with a smile, "Who is the person you like?"
'Damn it, when will all the people who hinder his way go away?'
