Chapter 451: Daily Life at the End of the Year
Practicing is a boring thing, but practicing together is a very interesting thing.
In the next six months, Xu Fang had a rare relaxing time. He meditated in the practice room in the attic with Jiang Shaoxu every day.
When it was time for dinner, they went out to eat together and picked some furniture, electrical appliances, small accessories and so on.
The first nest of the two people also became rich from the original empty appearance, and every place was filled with the breath of the two people.
In the evening, they exchanged their practice experience, mostly in the bedroom, sometimes in the bathroom, living room, kitchen and so on.
Jiang Shaoxu also successfully broke through the super level and awakened the rare space system.
"Great, it's dimensional magic!" Jiang Shaoxu said happily.
She is the kind of mage who focuses on mental power, so the second system of light system and the third system of ice system have become magic tool racks, which is quite a waste of resources.
The space system is different. Like Xu Fang's chaos system, it feeds on the ready-made spiritual realm. It can be easily used for combat after a little familiarity.
"Go out for a walk?" Xu Fang asked, "It's almost the New Year, and I haven't bought the Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters yet."
"Let's go!"
"Put on your coat, it's cold outside."
"I know, I know, don't say it!"
"Have you put on your long underwear? Let me check..."
"Go away, pervert!"
The two laughed and walked side by side like college lovers, riding their electric donkeys leisurely towards the commercial district.
"Where are you going to spend the New Year this year?" Jiang Shaoxu shouted, and the wind blew her voice into pieces.
"In Jinlin City, the municipal government organized a New Year's Eve event, and I have to speak." Xu Fang said.
"Then I'll stay here too!" Jiang Shaoxu's eyes lit up.
"Where's your dad?"
"I'm not going." Jiang Shaoxu snorted, "So many people come every New Year's Day, and they start with, "Oh, Shaoxu, you've grown up. Have you forgotten that I'm your fourth aunt? I held you in my arms when you were little... I might as well be with you."
"I see, I'm just a spare tire." Xu Fang said hurt, "Sure enough, women won't cherish you anymore after they get what they want."
"I'll hit you on the forehead!" Jiang Shaoxu was so angry that he hit him with his head. When he got tired of hitting him, he pressed his body against Xu Fang's back, and his delicate face was squeezed into a small bun.
He put his hands in Xu Fang's pockets and poked his belly dishonestly through his clothes.
"Hey, why is it different from what they say on the Internet?" Jiang Shaoxu muttered, "Isn't it said that boys' belly is super sensitive, just like mimosa, it will tighten up as long as it is poked?"
Xu Fang didn't even turn his head: "What, do you have to be shy to be called mimosa?"
"That's right, you are super shameless mimosa!" Jiang Shaoxu laughed.
"Actually, it's shy, but the position is slightly off."
Xu Fang said seriously: "If you go down... Damn sister, I'm the younger brother, I was wrong!"
Jiang Shaoxu sneered and let go of his hand: "It's good to know your mistake."
······
In the past six months since the disaster victims moved inland, Jinlin City has finally moved from being noisy to being stable, and all kinds of shops and industries have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain.
The end of the year is approaching, and the trees on both sides of the sidewalk have long lost their leaves, leaving only dry branches. The morning sun shines obliquely, without any obstruction, and it looks a bit desolate.
The atmosphere of the New Year is full of both sides of the road again. The shops along the street hang up and post big red lanterns and couplets, adding a festive flavor.
The buildings in the distance are also decorated with colorful lights, flashing soft and warm light.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going.
Young couples walk hand in hand in the bright lights, and whisper to each other from time to time.
Children happily shuttled through the crowd, holding various toys in their hands. Xu Fang even saw a toy that looked like his own ice spike.
The New Year's goods on both sides of the street were piled up into mountains, and the boss's head popped out from behind the New Year's goods.
Because Jinlin City itself is a hodgepodge city, there are all kinds of New Year's goods from all over the world.
"Get some nuts, some candies."
"This seafood looks really unique, get some."
Jiang Shaoxu asked: "Do you want to buy quick-frozen dumplings?"
"No, when there is a dumpling-making activity in the barracks, we can just eat ready-made ones." Xu Fang said.
Back then, when he spent the New Year in the Central Army Department, Jiang Chong and Chief of Staff Feng, the two forbidden spells, went to get dumplings, under the pretext of spending the New Year with the soldiers.
Now, it's finally Xu Fang's turn!
"Buy more small red envelopes... Boss, change these coins for me, and put a few dollars in each red envelope."
While Xu Fang was busy with the red envelopes here, Jiang Shaoxu took a fancy to the fireworks at the next stall.
The principle of fireworks in this world is different from that in the previous life. In simple terms, they are filled with some special minerals, which will emit colorful light when exposed to high temperature, accompanied by a popping sound.
Pop!
A little boy held the fireworks tightly and exploded directly in his hand. The tingling feeling made him laugh.
"You naughty child, can you play with this casually? How to wash the paint on your hands..." The parents pulled his ears and left.
Jiang Shaoxu bought a lot of fairy sticks, which are the kind of small sticks with a Japanese comic style that emit light after being lit.
"Let's go?" Xu Fang asked.
"Go get a haircut! Your hair is too long!" Jiang Shaoxu dragged him to a barber shop regardless of Xu Fang's objection.
Several Tony teachers were sitting on chairs watching short videos, and the speakers were banging loudly.
"Hello, welcome~~~, do you have an appointment?"
Xu Fang looked at the barber shop without any customers. Is it important to have an appointment?
"Two people." Jiang Shaoxu took out a card: "I have a VIP gold card, no need to queue."
So Tony nodded and picked up the intercom to communicate with his colleagues - even though this barber shop was only 50 square meters.
The director cut Xu Fang's hair, and the chief barber cut Jiang Shaoxu's hair. It turned out that there was no ordinary barber in the whole shop.
Xu Fang wanted to complain, but after thinking about it, he decided not to say anything since he was here during the Chinese New Year.
"What kind of hairstyle do you want?" The barber director said enthusiastically: "Your hair quality is very good, otherwise I will design one for you, guaranteed to be trendy and handsome!"
Xu Fang pulled down his mask.
The barber director's voice stagnated, as if the world was quiet.
"Design it." Xu Fang said.
"No, no, no, you still make the request." The barber director laughed awkwardly. He didn't dare to show his talent on this man's head!
"Thin his hair a little, remove the sides and back, and don't press the eyebrows in the front." Jiang Shaoxu said.
The barber director breathed a sigh of relief. The simpler the request, the better!
Xu Fang didn't change much. The main thing was that his hair looked thick and heavy after not being cut for a long time, and the details were a little messy. Now it is more natural after trimming.

At the same time.
Britain, Victoria family.
"Two more ports of the family were destroyed. The siren came too suddenly and everyone died." The old gentleman in formal clothes said.
"Where are the bodies?"
"Most of them were eaten. We rescued a batch, but they were all gnawed beyond recognition." The old gentleman sighed: "No one in the family is willing to go to the port now... but our business cannot be delayed."
"Maybe we should learn from the Chinese."
A young girl said: "They use magic equipment called dolphins and bees to warn, and hide bombs on the periphery. In this way, the sirens will at least not catch people off guard!"
