Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

With a "smack," Shang's mother slapped Shang Guokang hard on the head. "These are your nephews and nieces. They are both your sister's biological children."

"Then, why do they look so different?" Shang Guokang meant that his nephew wasn't very good-looking, while his niece looked like a white steamed bun.

"He'll be fine after a couple of days of rest." Mrs. Shang knew that her son had left things unsaid.

"My little one, how are you? Have you produced any milk yet?"

"I've got it, Mother." Shang Yanfang nodded shyly.

"Okay, Mom made you some pork rib soup, drink it quickly. Jianguo, you should also eat your breakfast quickly and go back to rest for a while."

"Okay, Mom." After the two finished their meal, Gao Jianguo didn't go back to the guesthouse to rest. Instead, he took the dozen or so diapers the children had changed and went to wash them.

"Darling, Jianguo is a good man. You didn't misjudge him," said Shang's mother, glancing at Shang Guokang, who was playing with the child.

"Mom, don't worry, Jianguo will take good care of us. By the way, Mom, how long of a leave did you take this time?" Shang Yanfang suddenly realized that she hadn't asked her own mother since her mother-in-law came.

"Mother, I've retired. I'll take care of your child for a while." Shang's mother looked at her youngest daughter, whom she had neglected, with eyes full of heartache.

"Okay, thank you so much, Mom." Shang Yanfang looked at her mother with heartfelt gratitude. She had been worried about whether Gao Jianguo could take good care of the three children. Now that her mother was helping, she could relax and focus on her studies to prepare for the college entrance examination.

The hospital has been peaceful these past few days. Shang Guokang came to visit them briefly and then went home, while Shang's mother and Gao Jianguo stayed at the hospital to take care of her and the children.

Shang Yanfang has already chosen names for the children: the eldest son will be named Gao Zichen, the second daughter will be named Gao Zixuan, and the youngest daughter will be named Gao Zihan.

Their nicknames are Chen'er, Xuan'er, and Han'er.

In just three or four days, the three babies grew like balloons, changing every day. Now all three children are the same size as normally born babies.

Yesterday, Dr. Wang examined Shang Yanfang and her three children before allowing them to be discharged from the hospital.

Gao Jianguo simply spent money to hire a tractor, used two quilts to make a makeshift bed on it, put Shang Yanfang and the three children on it, and then asked his mother-in-law to take care of them from behind.

He sat in the front and chatted with the driver, saying, "Uncle, slow down, slow down. Don't bump my wife and kids."

"Uncle, drive carefully."

"uncle……"

The man had originally planned to quickly send these people home so he could get a few more orders, but he couldn't resist being called "Uncle" repeatedly.

The tractor moved along the road like a snail, and the young men riding bicycles past would turn their heads to take a look at it.

After an oxcart slowly passed the group, the uncle, seeing Gao Jianguo constantly looking back, silently increased his speed slightly and followed the oxcart.

"We've arrived." Big Tree looked at the destination ahead and excitedly looked at Gao Jianguo.

"Uncle, not yet, we're not home yet. Please drive a little further." Gao Jianguo looked at the familiar village and pointed out the route to the uncle.

"Alright, Uncle. This is my home."

The uncle breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Gao Jianguo, who had finally earned his share of the money.

"Mom, have we arrived yet?" Shang Yanfang had been sleeping soundly in her warm bed.

"Okay, we're here. Don't come out yet," Mrs. Shang said, worried that her daughter might catch a cold if she suddenly threw off the covers.

"Honey, I'll go light the kang (heated brick bed), please wait a moment." Actually, the weather isn't cold right now, but there's a kind of coldness that only a husband can make feel when you feel cold.

"They're back, the girl and her great-grandson are back." Shang Guokang helped Old Master Chen out of the house.

"Grandpa, we're back." Gao Jianguo looked at the excited old man.

"It's good that you're back; where are your great-grandchildren?"

"Grandpa, let's go back first. I'll come back and hug Yanfang later."

"Go and bring the girl back now. The coal stove at home is very warm."

Upon hearing that the coal stove at home had been in use all along, Gao Jianguo decided against heating the kang (a traditional heated bed) and instead decided to take his wife and children back home first!

"Xiaokang, come on, help me carry the baby."

The group, carrying three children and one adult, went home.

"The great-grandchildren are so cute!" Grandpa Chen said, looking at the little figures with great affection.

Lying comfortably on the bed, Shang Yanfang peeked around and said, "Ah! It's so comfortable living at home!"

"Wife, you rest for a while, I'll go out and cook." Gao Jianguo looked at his wife with eyes full of love.

"Honey, I want to eat spicy rabbit." Shang Yanfang has been drinking the greasy soups that her mother has been making for her these past few days, and she feels like she's getting greasy herself.

"Wife, this...can you eat this?" Gao Jianguo looked at his wife with great difficulty.

"Honey, please make me something! We can sneak a bite tonight." Shang Yanfang looked at Gao Jianguo pitifully, making it hard for him to refuse.

"Alright! You can only eat a little bit." In the end, Gao Jianguo relented.

After dinner, Mrs. Shang looked at her daughter and son-in-law, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"Mom, just say what you want to say!" Shang Yanfang asked her mother.

"Well, Jianguo, I'm retired, and I'd like to stay here and take care of Yanfang for a few more months... What do you think?" Mrs. Shang was actually worried; she was taking care of her daughter here, but where should she stay?

If it's only for a month, she can sleep with her daughter. But if it's for several months, her son-in-law definitely won't be happy if she sleeps with her daughter all the time.

“Mom, I know that. Yanfang told me. I plan to build two more rooms in the backyard. You and Xiaokang will each have one room. It’s too much trouble for you and Yanfang to stay here together.” Gao Jianguo said to his mother-in-law very sincerely.

Shang Yanfang looked at Gao Jianguo in disbelief. If she slept with her mother at night, how could she possibly sneak a bite of spicy rabbit?

Gao Jianguo felt his wife staring intently at him, but he felt guilty and dared not look at her.

“Why don’t we just not build the house? I’ll go live at the educated youth settlement and let Xiaokang come and live with you,” Shang’s mother was still worried that her son-in-law didn’t have money, after all, Gao Jianguo was just a rural man in people’s minds.

Shang Yanfang was about to agree when she heard that, so that she could finally eat the spicy rabbit meat she had been longing for.

"Mother, let's build it in the backyard! Just two rooms, so Chen'er, Xuan'er, and Han'er can live there in the future. Besides, it's inconvenient for you to live in the educated youth settlement."

As soon as Gao Jianguo finished speaking, Shang's mother had no reason to refuse.

“Alright, let’s build it then! I have some money here, take it.” Shang’s mother took out fifty yuan from her pocket and handed it to Gao Jianguo.
