Chapter 251: Chapter 251 Skiing Equipment

"Yes, Xiao Chen and Mommy are in first place, so we’ll let you choose the skiing equipment first. We’ll slide back down the slope to have lunch!"

Song Yuchen looked in the direction Xiaowen was pointing and saw several snow tubes lined up.

Sitting on the tubes, you could slide directly down the slope because there was conveniently a shallow, man-made stream leading to the bottom of the mountain. With the recent subzero temperatures and heavy snowfall, the stream had turned into a natural sled run.

During snowy days, villagers living nearby the slope often brought tubes to ski with, and the production team also discovered this fun location. That’s why they borrowed four tubes from the villagers just now.

It wasn’t that they intentionally didn’t prepare five tubes, but that they had really only managed to borrow four.

However, the audience in the live stream didn’t see it that way; they felt the production team was deliberately stirring things up:

[Damn, the production team is definitely causing trouble; five guest teams and only four tubes?]

[Hahaha, so the last team gets none, huh!]

[This is so unfair. Why does the last team get nothing? Poor Xiao Xue.]

[Why are you all in a rush? Xiaowen hasn’t even said anything yet. Maybe there’s more to come!]

Song Yuchen cheerfully thanked Xiaowen, "Thank you, Aunt Xiaowen!"

"Don’t mention it, you’ve earned it. Go pick out the equipment with your mom quickly!"

Following that, Ye Zhenzhen and Song Yuchen went together to choose skiing equipment.

The little guy saw there were only four tubes and his little brain quickly figured out what was going on—if the first place could choose first, then, surely, the last place would miss out.

Ye Zhenzhen pointed to one of the tubes without any patches and asked the little guy, "Xiao Chen, shall we pick this one?"

The little guy immediately nodded and then hugged Ye Zhenzhen’s legs, acting spoiled, "Mommy, you are really amazing. I admire you so, so much, and I love you so, so much!"

Right now, in Xiao Chen’s heart, Ye Zhenzhen was the all-powerful supermom; there was nothing she couldn’t do.

She even knew how to have a snowball fight and came first at that.

When Dad comes back, he would have to tell him Ye Zhenzhen was not only great at cooking and digging bamboo shoots but was also especially good at snowball fights!

Faced with the little one’s sudden outburst of compliments and confessions, Ye Zhenzhen was a bit overwhelmed.

She took off her gloves, squatted down, touched the little guy’s rosy cheeks, and smiled tenderly, "Hmm, Mommy loves Xiao Chen a lot, a lot too. Xiao Chen is the cutest and coolest treasure in Mommy’s heart!"

It was unclear whether his cheeks were blushing from the wind or from playing too happily, but Xiao Chen’s fair little face visibly reddened even more...

[Ahh, who could resist such an adorable kid confessing love? My whole heart is melting, gosh!]

[No, what I care about is my Zhenzhen. Just now, what she said, I’m just going to pretend she was saying it to me.]

[To tell you the truth, as a casual fan, I really think Ye Zhenzhen is perfect. I don’t understand why so many people bash her.]

[Hey! It’s all the envy of the lemon spirits. It’s just that my Zhenzhen is too excellent and perfect!]

Shen Yibo also counted the tubes and then said with a frown, "Three left, and my mom is the last one, so does that mean we have nothing to slide down the mountain with and we’ll have to walk down?"

After hearing Shen Yibo’s words, Han Jiangxue’s brow furrowed—what did he mean ’the last one again’?

If someone from the show crew threw more snowballs, she would be the first, and Ye Zhenzhen would be the last, okay?

[Little Fool, even without tires we can still lie in the snow and roll down the hill!]

[Above, are you speaking human? Let Han Jiangxue roll, I need to protect my Little Yibo.]

Before Xiaowen had a chance to respond to Shen Yibo’s words, Gu Xiaoran had already snatched the initiative.

Gu Xiaoran’s little face looked somewhat triumphant as he laughed heartily at Shen Yibo, "Hahaha! Yay yay yay! An Xi is in third place, we can slide down the hill on a tire!"

Shen Yibo glanced at Gu Xiaoran with a slightly reproachful look and pouted, "Hmph, just third place, not first! Xiao Chen’s mom is first, they have already picked out a tire!"

When Xiao Chen was mentioned, Shen Yibo’s face instantly filled with pride, as if it were his own achievement.

Not to be outdone, Gu Xiaoran stuck out his tongue at Shen Yibo, "Nyah nyah, little brother Yibo, Xiao Chen’s mom is first, but that’s not your mom! Although my mom An Xi is third place, she’s much better than your mom in fifth place!"

Han Jiangxue: ...

Shen Yibo’s little eyebrows furrowed even more, "Hmph! I don’t want to talk to you anymore!"

Unable to find words to retort and hitting a sore spot, Little Fool Yibo declared he was very angry!

[Hahaha! Gu Xiaoran and Shen Yibo are really professionals at comedy.]

[Shen Yibo stabs Han Jiangxue in the heart with his words, then Gu Xiaoran stabs Shen Yibo in the heart with his, hahaha!]

[Han Jiangxue: Having such a stepson, I don’t know if it’s fortune or misfortune!]

Meanwhile, An Xi’s face held a hint of surprise upon hearing the two little guys’ conversation. Gu Xiaoran had just actively said to someone, "My mom An Xi."

This unexpected joy came so suddenly that a slight smile began to form on An Xi’s lips as she thought about it.

Once Xiaowen saw that the little ones had stopped arguing, she touched Shen Yibo’s head with a hint of regret and smiled, "Sorry, Yibo, the snow tubes are indeed chosen according to ranking."

Shen Yibo sheepishly pulled a face, "Alright then!"

After all, his mom was the last place.

Han Jiangxue glanced at An Xi and, seeing her smile without saying anything, felt a surge of displeasure.

That day, she had clearly told An Xi all those words, yet An Xi turned a deaf ear, and now here she was, laughing. There was nothing funny about it, the kids were talking nonsense, and she didn’t even try to stop them.

She always says they are friends, but now that she was clearly at a disadvantage, An Xi didn’t speak up at all.

At times like these, Han Jiangxue incredibly missed the days when she filmed the show with Wu Yuerou.

At least Wu Yuerou would always stand up for her and argue with Ye Zhenzhen.

And now, she could only rely on herself. She had just been at a disadvantage during the snowball fight, and now she definitely couldn’t let Ye Zhenzhen be so complacent and relaxed again.

Han Jiangxue raised her hand to protest, "Aunt Xiaowen, before we started the snowball fight, you didn’t say there would be snow tubes for sliding, nor that they would be chosen according to ranking. Isn’t that a bit unfair?

Yibo really wants to play, and such an arrangement by your crew makes me feel incompetent as a mother.

If you had said something earlier, maybe the outcome would have been different, right?"
