Take a hot shower.

Use boiling water to wash away all the fatigue and chill.

Su Wei stepped into the warm wooden house, closed the door, and shut out the wind and snow.

He first added a few pieces of freshly chopped birch wood to the fireplace, and the flames immediately blazed up, crackling and popping.

Then he dragged a huge tin tub from the corner and placed it not far from the fireplace.

Then, he picked up an empty large iron pot, placed it on the hot fireplace, and filled it with water.

The icy water sizzled as it hit the hot iron pot.

Chapter 44 Taking a bath in the blizzard, ice fishing tomorrow

A large iron pot sat on the fireplace.

The water has boiled.

White steam rose continuously, heading straight for the roof.

The room, which was originally dry and cold, quickly became very damp.

The fireplace was still crackling and burning, and the air was gradually filled with the aroma of fully burned birch wood.

Su Wei held two thick towels folded four times in her hands.

Even so, you could still feel the scalding heat of the metal handle through the cloth.

This pot of water, when full, must weigh several dozen kilograms.

There's still a little distance between the fireplace and the bathroom on the left.

He had to move over very carefully.

There is usually a water heater in the bathroom, but now, in this special situation...

Diesel fuel is scarce, so electricity should be used sparingly whenever possible.

He had already placed the metal bucket in the bathroom beforehand.

Su Wei's arm muscles were taut and clearly defined.

"Rise."

The large iron pot was steadily lifted off the stove rack, and the water inside swayed slightly but did not spill out.

Cotton Candy was sleeping on the carpet.

Hearing the noise, its ears twitched, and it jumped up.

Seeing Su Wei holding up a large object emitting white smoke, the little guy curiously leaned over and sniffed it.

Hot steam hit its face.

Achoo!

Cotton Candy sneezed, shook her head, carefully took two steps back, and followed Su Wei at a distance.

Push open the bathroom door.

There's no heating here, it's terribly cold.

The exhaled hot breath immediately turned into white mist.

The floor tiles beneath his feet were icy cold, radiating a chill that seemed to penetrate his shoes and seep into his very bones.

In the middle of the bathroom, there was that old-fashioned iron bath tub.

These buckets were originally used on farms to brush livestock or mix feed; they are large and sturdy, with rolled-up edges, and look quite rough.

However, the Su Wei family used it for bathing.

Its advantages are that it is deep and large enough.

"Wow!"

Boiling water was poured in.

The small bathroom was instantly filled with a thick white mist.

The mirror was stained, and water droplets clung to the wall tiles.

But that's not enough.

This amount of water is only enough to cover the bottom.

Su Wei filled buckets with cold water, one after another.

Ice water was poured into boiling water to create the right temperature.

Su Wei reached out and tried it.

It's a little hot.

It wasn't a warm feeling.

But in temperatures as low as minus thirty degrees Celsius, this temperature is the most suitable.

It was enough to thoroughly soak out the coldness hidden deep within Su Wei's bones.

close the door.

Locked.

Su Wei didn't let a single wisp of heat escape, locking it firmly inside the bathroom.

Taking off your clothes is the final test.

In temperatures of minus thirty degrees Celsius, stand naked in an open space.

It was downright torture.

He gritted his teeth and quickly took off his clothes.

Until you're completely naked.

His entire body was completely naked, and the cold air enveloped his skin.

I got goosebumps.

Su Wei's jaw clenched, and he let out a soft breath of cold air.

We can't go in yet.

My body was covered in wood shavings, sweat, and dust from chopping wood; if this bucket of water got dirty, I wouldn't be able to take a bath.

First, you need to wash yourself thoroughly.

He picked up the water ladle.

Scoop up a ladle of hot water.

It was poured directly over their heads!

The water flowed down my hair and back all the way to my heels.

Every pore on my body opened up.

Su Wei wiped her face, squeezed out a lot of shower gel, and lathered it in her palm.

He rubbed his aching shoulders and lower back vigorously.

I pushed my palms firmly across the muscles, taking away the soreness and dirt.

Gray foam flowed into the drain along with the water.

After rinsing clean.

Su Wei hooked his foot on the footstool next to him.

He braced himself against the edge of the metal bucket with both hands, then stepped inside.

The water was initially up to their knees.

A stinging sensation.

Then it went up to her thighs.

grow numb.

Finally, he slid to the bottom of the bucket, the water reaching up to his chin.

"Hiss... that feels good..."

Su Wei's face wrinkled, then relaxed, and he let out a soft sigh.

The coldness accumulated in the body dissipates immediately when soaked in hot water.

Blood and qi flow rapidly in warm temperatures.

A warm sensation shot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, making him feel very comfortable.

He tilted his head back, resting the back of his head on a dry towel, against the cold metal bucket.

This moment.

What blizzard, what power outage, what $160,000 in debt?
