Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Shang family was bustling with activity.

The Shang family happily received each distinguished guest.

His family is truly the most successful among all the relatives this year, with all three of their children getting into university.

The eldest son got married, the youngest daughter married into a good family, and they had three lovely children.

Shang Yanfang could only smile foolishly at the newcomer; she had no experience chatting with this kind of old woman.

She felt like her face was going to freeze from smiling all day.

She was still applying a hot towel to her face while lying in bed at night.

My elder brother and sister-in-law went back to their unit after the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and my mother prepared a lot of gifts for them.

Shang Yanfang and her family also moved to the newly built, two-courtyard house on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

He Lingling and Li Zhaodi gradually got in touch with her.

On the day of the move, everyone came to help her.

"Yanfang, is this your home? It's so beautiful!" He Lingling exclaimed, looking at the large courtyard.

"Yes, this is my new home," Shang Yanfang said, adding that this was her first time visiting since buying the house.

Gao Jianguo usually decorates this house, so she told him her ideas.

Now that you look at it, the man has done a really good job with the house.

The house is fully furnished with furniture, mattresses, pots and pans, so you can just bring your bags and move in.

Shang's mother also asked Gao Jianguo to bring all four large items that her husband had bought for her.

The whole house is warm and comfortable.

Especially the tatami mat in the bedroom, it's Shang Yanfang's absolute favorite, isn't it?

"Don't leave today, let's have barbecue together later," Shang Yanfang said to the group.

Today, Mr. and Mrs. Shang, Shang Guoqiang, Shang Guokang, and Shang Yanyan all came, and even Grandpa Gao, who lives in the military compound, came.

"Girl, save me a room. I'll come and stay for a couple of days when I have time," Grandpa Gao said to Shang Yanfang.

“Okay, Grandpa. I’ve prepared everything for you. You can come back and stay whenever you have time. We have plenty of empty rooms here,” Shang Yanfang said, looking at her friends and family.

"Okay, we'll definitely come more often," several good friends said with a smile.

"Come on, everyone. Let's have barbecue here today!" Shang Yanfang said again.

"Alright, little sister, how do we make the barbecue?" Shang Guoqiang asked curiously.

"How about we have hot pot?" Shang Yanfang said after thinking about the time.

If you're having barbecue, then you'll need skewers, and marinating the meat will take longer.

When eating hot pot, you only need to wash the vegetables. You can buy the meat from the store, and you can also buy the soup base from the store.

“Great, sis, hot pot is perfect for the dead of winter.” Shang Guokang stared intently at Shang Yanfang.

“Okay, then you guys stay home and keep the fire going. Your brother-in-law and I will go buy some ingredients,” Shang Yanfang said, pulling Gao Jianguo out of the house.

The three little ones are all grown up now and don't cling to Shang Yanfang as much anymore. As long as they're fed and not hungry, they don't need anything else.

"Honey, when I get my things later, could you keep an eye on things for me?" Shang Yanfang glanced around cautiously.

“Okay, there’s a dead end ahead. Let’s go there.” Gao Jianguo led the way, and the two arrived at a dead end.

"Honey, you can take it. You can put it in this basket later."

Gao Jianguo knew what his wife wanted to do, so he grabbed a basket when he came out.

"Okay, husband." Shang Yanfang responded and her consciousness entered the space.

After a series of actions, Gao Jianguo saw that the basket had become much fuller.

Shang Yanfang bought everything she needed: green vegetables, meat rolls, tofu skin, meatballs, spicy hot pot base, and mushroom base.

"Wife, that's enough." Gao Jianguo said when he saw that the basket was overflowing.

"Oh, okay." Shang Yanfang was really addicted just now, and wanted to buy everything she saw.

"Um, honey, do we need that pot again this time?" Shang Yanfang asked uncertainly.

"No need! There are a lot of people in the family this time, let's just eat from two separate pots!" Gao Jianguo said after thinking for a moment.

"Okay, let's go home then!" Shang Yanfang took the man's hand and they strolled home.

She didn't know how long it had been since the two of them had taken a walk like this; it seemed to have started after she had a child! Before, her husband would accompany her on walks when she was pregnant.

When we got home, a group of people were sitting there chatting and playing with the children.

Shang Yanfang and Gao Jianguo did not disturb the group and went straight to the kitchen.

A moment later, Shang Guoqiang quietly walked in, startling the two people who were receiving the white makeup.

"Second brother, what are you doing? Sneaking around like this?" Shang Yanfang said preemptively.

"Um, I wanted to ask if that short-haired girl has a boyfriend?" Shang Guoqiang asked somewhat shyly.

"That one?" Shang Yanfang wasn't sure which one Shang Guoqiang was referring to, because both He Lingling and Li Zhaodi had short hair.

"That's the one." Shang Guoqiang and Shang Yanfang, the two siblings, secretly peeked at the group of people inside the room from the doorway.

"That one! It's He Lingling. I don't think she has a boyfriend. I haven't seen her for several days. She didn't have a boyfriend when she was in the village. I don't know what she's like now that she's back."

Shang Yanfang looked at her second brother honestly, wondering if he had taken a liking to He Lingling.

"Could you ask for me?" Shang Guoqiang asked his sister timidly.

"Then tell me, second brother, what do you want to do? Do you like her?" Shang Yanfang asked her second brother gossipy.

"Well, I just felt she was quite unique, and I wanted to be friends with her," Shang Guoqiang said, shaking his head helplessly.

"Second brother, it's just making friends, it's fine. He's a very easy person to get along with," Shang Yanfang said, looking at her second brother with a teasing gaze. Making friends? It's no big deal.

"Um, I want to get a girlfriend," Shang Guoqiang said hastily, afraid that his younger sister might back out.

"Okay, I'll ask for you." Shang Yanfang agreed to help when her second brother brought it up.

Gao Jianguo put all the ingredients in a basin, Shang Yanfang poured two packets of hot pot base into the pot, and left some samples of the dishes in the kitchen.

He carried the other dishes back into the house. Inside, there was a coal stove that Gao Jianguo had just bought. It could be used as a table in the summer and for heating in the winter.

"Grandpa, Mom, Dad, Brother, this is the spicy hot pot. Those who can eat spicy food can eat inside. The hot pot in the kitchen is the mushroom hot pot, which is not spicy. Those who cannot eat spicy food can eat the broth in that pot."

Shang Yanfang demonstrated how to eat it again, and then Shang's father, Shang Guoqiang, Shang Guokang, Li Zhaodi, and Liu Yan went to the kitchen.

Shang Yanfang glanced at Grandpa Gao, who was sitting there motionless, and asked, "Grandpa, can you eat spicy food?"
