Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

"Okay, Second Brother." Shang Yanfang replied happily, and opened the door as she did so.

"Second brother, please come in." Seeing that her second brother was carrying a lot of things and was slightly bowing, she made a gesture of invitation.

"You two, stop being naughty," Mrs. Shang said as she came downstairs and saw her two children playing.

"Second son, have you prepared everything I asked you to buy?" Shang's mother asked, looking at the things in Shang's second son's hands.

"It's all here, Mother. Everything's here," Second Brother Shang said proudly.

"Come on, make way, let me take my things inside," said Shang Erge, looking at his mother and sister who were about to have a long chat with him at the door.

Seeing this, the two quickly moved to the side. Second Brother Shang placed the things on the table and said...

"My dear girl! Your second brother bought you some pastries, fried dough sticks, a toothbrush and toothbrush cup, malted milk powder, canned fruit, fabric, a thermos, and other things."

"Tell me if you want anything else."

As he spoke, Shang Guoqiang patted Shang Yanfang's head.

"My dear, stop chatting with your second brother. Come here, Mom is going to teach you how to cook," Shang's mother called to her youngest daughter from the kitchen.

"Okay, Mom," Shang Yanfang replied and headed towards the kitchen.

"My dear girl! You're going to the countryside tomorrow."

This time, you'll be taking a two-day, one-night train ride to the countryside.

"I'll seal the money I prepared for you inside your inner garment later," said Madam Shang, still somewhat worried.

“Okay, Mother. Don’t worry. I will write to you often,” Shang Yanfang comforted her elderly mother.

"If you need anything while you're in the countryside, just contact us. You can call or send a telegram."

While nagging, Shang's mother taught Shang Yanfang how to cook.

Tonight, Shang's mother cooked a dish, and Shang Yanfang also cooked a dish.

"Mother, have a taste," Shang Yanfang said, placing the stir-fried dish next to her mother.

Seeing her daughter looking at her expectantly, Mrs. Shang picked up the chopsticks beside her, took a bite, and praised, "Delicious."

Shang Yanfang, who had simply stir-fried a cabbage, couldn't help but smile broadly upon hearing her mother's approval.

Family members gradually returned.

When Shang Yanyan returned from the supply and marketing cooperative, she brought some fabric and gloves for Shang Yanfang to take with her when she went to the countryside.

After school, Shang Guokang rushed into his room and took out his hidden stash of money.

He handed it over to his older sister.

"Sis, this is my saved pocket money. Here you go," Shang Guokang said with a reluctant expression.

He noticed that his younger brother kept glancing at the tin box.

That conflicted expression aroused Shang Yanfang's mischievousness.

"Xiaokang! How much money is in here? Do you want it all for your sister?" Shang Yanfang asked, reaching for her younger brother's piggy bank to take a look.

As she placed her hands on the piggy bank, she felt a faint force resisting her.

Shang Yanfang revealed a wicked smile.

Without thinking, he forcefully snatched the piggy bank from Shang Guokang's hand.

This box is an empty biscuit box that I bought from the supply and marketing cooperative after I finished eating the biscuits.

I opened the lid of the empty box and saw a stack of colorful money.

Most of them were small change, such as one or two cents or five cents.

There were scattered coins of one or two cents and five cents.

Don't underestimate this small amount of money; back then, five cents could buy an ice pop.

Shang Guoqiang has saved up quite a bit of money.

If you count carefully, it's about ten yuan.

"Xiao Kang! It's really your thoughtful gift. I feel a little embarrassed to accept it."

"But wouldn't it be a shame to refuse your kindness?" Shang Yanfang said with a mischievous smile.

As someone who was about to come of age, Shang Guokang naturally knew that everything before "but" was nonsense, and what came after "but" was the important part.

Looking at his younger brother's ever-changing expressions, he couldn't help but find it quite amusing.

After watching his younger brother's face change.

Shang Yanfang said slowly, "Then I'll take five yuan!"

Upon hearing his second sister's words, Shang Guokang immediately put on a smile.

Shang Erge sat there watching the show for a long time, and also took out his own sister's pocket money.

Shang Yanfang accepted the pocket money from Shang Guokang and said, "Thank you, Second Brother. You're the best."

Holding the money given to her by her second brother and younger brother, Shang Yanfang couldn't help but feel secretly delighted: I'm rich! I'm rich! My second brother gave me some, my sister gave me some, my parents gave me some, and I'll save some myself. I'm rich! I'm rich!

He saw his little sister's bright, sparkling eyes fixed on the money in her hand.

"Darling, put the money away carefully. Then come out for dinner," Mrs. Shang said, looking at her daughter's greedy expression.

Shang Yanfang took the money and ran happily to her room.

He took out his own savings, plus what his second brother and younger brother had given him, which amounted to about two hundred yuan.

My second brother gave me sixty yuan, and my younger brother gave me five yuan.

I saved up more than 120 yuan.

This shows that Shang Yanfang was favored.

I've always received pocket money and New Year's money from my older brothers, so I just said that.

"Old Shang, you're back. Wash your hands and eat."

The cabbage I made today was prepared by my daughter at home. Everyone's come over for dinner.

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Shang Yanfang immediately put the money on her bedside table.

We went out to eat.

at the dinner table,

Shang's mother enthusiastically recommended the stir-fried cabbage her daughter had made.

"Come, come, come! Today is our little girl's first cooking demonstration. Everyone must try it!" Mrs. Shang excitedly recommended the dishes made by Shang Yanfang.

Without saying a word, the first bite of each member of the family was taken from that stir-fried cabbage.

Before he could even swallow, Brother Shang started praising it.

"This young lady's cooking skills are comparable to those of the chefs in state-run restaurants."

Shang Yanfang was a little embarrassed by the praise.

After the meal, as usual, Second Brother Shang washed the dishes.

Shang Yanfang wanted to go back to pack her luggage, but her mother called her into her room.

"My dear girl! I've prepared a hundred yuan for you for this trip to the countryside."

Keep it safe and don't lose it. Remember not to flaunt your wealth.

You absolutely mustn't let anyone know about this money. You can only know a person's face, not their heart!

After saying that, he took out the money he had saved from the wardrobe and gave Shang Yanfang one hundred yuan.

He also told Shang Yanfang to contact the brigade leader if she needed anything, and added that the brigade leader and Shang's father were comrades-in-arms in the past.

The mother and daughter had a private conversation.

After speaking, Shang Yanfang took the money given to her by her mother and went back to her room.

Back in her room, Shang Yanfang had no idea that Shang Yanyan had a surprise for her!

When she opened the door to her room, she saw a pair of brand-new leather shoes on her bed.

"Wow, these are such beautiful leather shoes!" Shang Yanfang excitedly picked up the leather shoes that were on the bed.

"Little sister! I saw that you liked the leather shoes I bought, so I bought you a pair too," Shang Yanyan said, seeing that her younger sister liked them.

Shang Yanyan had previously saved up money to buy herself a pair of leather shoes, which Shang Yanfang found incredibly enviable.

This time, seeing that his younger sister was going to the countryside, he bought her a pair of leather shoes as well.

"Here, little sister, I have thirty yuan here, take it." Shang Yanyan said, taking out thirty yuan from her bag and handing it to Shang Yanfang.

"Thank you, sis! I love it so much."

As she spoke, Shang Yanfang picked up the new shoes from the bed and tried them on.

They walked back and forth a few times.

The size is just right, and it's very lightweight.

It's very comfortable to walk on.

After walking around a few times, he took off his new leather shoes.

"What? Little sister, don't you like it?"

Seeing her younger sister take off her leather shoes, Shang Yanyan asked in confusion.

"No, sister, I'm just taking it off so I can wear it when I go to the countryside tomorrow," Shang Yanfang explained.
