A sudden voice from behind startled Zhao Jun. He turned to see an old man and a little boy standing behind him.
"Master Xu!" Seeing it was Xu Changlin, Zhao Jun greeted him. He glanced down at the little boy and then smiled at Xu Changlin. "Taking your grandson out for a stroll?"
"Mhm." The old man smiled and grunted in agreement. Holding the child's hand, he patted him on the head. "He came back with his mom and dad yesterday. I'm just taking him for a little walk around the village entrance."
Xu Changlin's son and daughter-in-law both worked at the post office in the town down the mountain, so they could only come back for holidays.
The four of them were heading the same way as they entered the village, chatting as they walked.
The old man saw that Zhao Jun was carrying a gun and that he and Li Baoyu were each carrying a pair of boar-hide skis. He asked Zhao Jun, "Fellas, what were you two up to?"
