Chapter 173: Wait 3 minutes at bus stop 173!

As for Ye Zhenzhen’s response, Han Jiangxue didn’t feel angry at all.

Her face still wore a light smile, "Zhenzhen, you and I are about the same size in figure, how could I not fit into your clothes!"

"You really can’t fit into them, believe me."

The brilliance of Han Jiangxue lay exactly here, even though she was clearly fiercely opposed to her inside, she could still ask to borrow clothes when meeting face to face.

Han Jiangxue wanted to say something else when Xiaowen and the staff of the program came over with two big bags, saying to everyone, "Does any mother or child need a cotton jacket?"

Han Jiangxue raised her hand, "I need one."

As she spoke, Han Jiangxue glanced at Ye Zhenzhen as if it were unintentional.

She had just deliberately asked Ye Zhenzhen for clothes, knowing full well that Ye Zhenzhen wouldn’t lend clothes to her as there had always been discord between their faces and hearts.

She had asked merely to let the live broadcast viewers know just how despicable Ye Zhenzhen was.

For someone like that to be praised online as kind and nice, Ye Zhenzhen really didn’t deserve it.

Xiaowen nodded and then asked the other guests, "Does any other mother or child need a cotton jacket?"

Everyone shook their heads; everyone had brought down jackets before leaving home. They were also wearing warm clothes now and felt warm, so there was no need.

[It seems the program group is quite nice, they even prepared cotton jackets.]

[Ye Jianjian wouldn’t lend clothes to our Xiao Xue, but we don’t care, the program group has them, hahaha!]

[Look how smug you are!]

Then, Xiaowen said to everyone, "Mothers who have participated in our program should know that we will start choosing rooms once we arrive at the village.

Mothers and children who do not need cotton jackets provided by the program group today can go directly to pick a room, while those who need cotton jackets provided by the program group must wait in place for three minutes before going to choose a room."

Han Jiangxue’s smile froze as she heard the rule, suddenly feeling targeted.

Thinking this, she immediately blurted out, "Xiaowen, I am the only one here without a cotton jacket; I feel this is a bit unfair."

As she spoke, Han Jiangxue’s voice began to tremble; it was really cold.

[I knew it wouldn’t be that simple.]

[This is really unfair!]

[Why pick on our Xiao Xue?]

[Who’s picking on Han Jiangxue? How do you find such a sense of presence? Who stopped her from bringing clothes?]

Xiaowen smiled gently, "This is the program group’s rule, if Teacher Han feels it’s unfair, you can also choose not to take it.

After all, the program group does not interfere with what the guests prefer to wear."

Xiaowen looked quite frail, but actually, every time she spoke, her words were quite cutting.

Her tone sounded very gentle and her words weren’t unpleasant, but it made Han Jiangxue feel irritated.

After another cold wind blew, making her sneeze twice, she agreed, "Okay, I can."

Waiting for three minutes was better than freezing to death on the spot.

Only then did Xiaowen hand a bag to Han Jiangxue, "Put this on."

Han Jiangxue happily took it and quickly opened the bag to take out the clothes and put them on.

The program group had provided down jackets, pure black ones, the same style as the staff wore—their work uniforms.

Wrapped in the thick and wide down jacket, Han Jiangxue suddenly felt revived.

This weather indeed called for wearing such a thick down jacket.

[The program group still has a conscience, giving out such a thick down jacket.]

[That woman just got lucky for nothing!]

[Xiao Xue, Xiao Xue, finally no longer freezing.]

Next came the segment where they handed over cash, snacks, and toys.

Having learned from the first episode, this time the kids cooperated well and handed over their snacks and toys without a word.

The mothers also surrendered any cash they had brought with them.

Gu Xiaoran stood to the side, clearly dissatisfied with such rules set by the show’s crew, not only did they take his tablet, but they also took his Transformers toy.

The little guy’s whole face looked quite downcast, and he was visibly reluctant.

After everything was collected, Xiaowen said with a smile, "So, we’ve come to the most crucial moment of this episode, the scramble for rooms.

This time the game is a race between mothers and their children."

As he spoke, Xiaowen pointed to a large tree in front of them and said to everyone, "The rooms for this episode are right beside that big tree, and you’ll need to run there from here.

Only when both the mother and child reach the room together can they claim it; it is ineffective if just one of them arrives first.

Here, I must particularly mention that three rooms have heated brick beds, there’s another room with a heating stove, and there’s one room without anything.

So, everyone must do their best!"

After hearing this, everyone’s hearts instantly became tense.

[Hahaha, in this cold weather, if you don’t have heating or a brick bed, you’re really going to freeze to death.]

[So, does Han Jiangxue have to wait three minutes before she can start running? Then isn’t it certain she won’t be able to get one of the good rooms?]

[It must be said, the show crew really knows how to make it exciting, racing to claim rooms in the icy and snowy weather!]

Fang Xiaoyu glanced at Lin Qianqian and laughed, "Mom, let’s just walk a bit faster while holding hands; I don’t want to live in a room without a heated brick bed."

Fang Xiaoyu, having been on a film set, knew what a heated brick bed was.

"Okay, we’ll try to be quick."

Ye Zhenzhen, holding two suitcases, looked at Xiao Chen and chuckled, "Don’t rush later; we’ll just walk slowly."

"You don’t need to worry about me; just take care of yourself," the little guy replied confidently.

Ye Zhenzhen reached out to pat the little guy’s head and laughed, "Fine, I won’t worry about you; just take it slow."

The ground was icy; it wasn’t really good for running at all; they could only walk slowly.

Xu Wanjia chimed in, "We’d better take it slow; it might even be a bit difficult to run on this surface."

Xiao Yiyi, with her little head tilted back, said, "Mommy, I don’t want to run; I want to walk holding your hand."

Xu Wanjia laughed, "Alright, mommy will hold Xiao Yiyi’s hand."

With Han Jiangxue as the fallback, they would be able to secure a warm room no matter what.

[Zhenzhen, run quickly; you have to get a room with a heated brick bed!]

[I hope that Xiao Yu, Xiao Chen, and Xiao Yiyi get the rooms with heated brick beds]

[Ah, me too, me too.]

Gu Xiaoran furrowed his brows and asked An Xi, "What’s a heated brick bed?"

An Xi, coming from the South, had never seen a heated brick bed and had only heard of them. She replied, "It’s a bed that’s really warm when you sleep on it, almost like our home’s underfloor heating; during the winter, the floor at home is warm."

Gu Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, "Then I must stay in a room with a heated brick bed."

Han Jiangxue’s face turned from red to pale; she glanced at Shen Yibo, knowing she had to wait here for three minutes before taking Shen Yibo to claim a room...

There was no need to race; the room with nothing was bound to be hers.

She just prayed that the conditions wouldn’t be worse than they were in the first episode.
