Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

Seeing the interaction between the two, Liu Yan and Li Zhaodi looked at Shang Yanfang in disbelief.

I couldn't help but give the little girl a thumbs up in my heart.

"A heroine among women" In the 1970s, although the slogan was "Women hold up half the sky," their status was still very low.

I was incredulous to see Shang Yanfang dare to hit Gao Jianguo today.

"Yanzi, how much longer will it take for that meat?" Shang Yanfang asked.

Seeing that Liu Yan ignored her, she turned her head and saw Liu Yan staring blankly at a certain spot, her eyes vacant.

"Swallow, swallow."

"Ah, what's wrong with Yanfang?" Liu Yan asked instinctively, snapping out of her daze.

"I just wanted to ask if the braised pork is ready yet?" Shang Yanfang repeated her question.

"Oh, okay, I'll poke it with chopsticks."

Liu Yan picked up her chopsticks and stabbed them open.

"Okay, I'll scoop it out." Liu Yan said, hurriedly scooping up the braised pork.

"No rush, I still need to wash some potatoes."

Shang Yanfang quickly comforted Liu Yan.

"Here they are, the potatoes are washed." He Lingling walked in carrying five fist-sized potatoes.

"Alright, you can leave once you've finished what you're doing. I'll take care of the rest myself," Shang Yanfang said, looking at the five people crammed into the small kitchen.

"Okay, my food is ready." Li Zhaodi was the first to walk out of the kitchen.

"I've left the potatoes for you." He Lingling also left.

"I'll just pour out this dishwater." Liu Yan unconsciously quickened her pace.

A minute later, only she and Gao Jianguo were left in the kitchen.

"It's chopped up, you can go now," Shang Yanfang said, shooing him away.

"Hey Yanfang, I can help you start a fire or something," Gao Jianguo said, looking at Shang Yanfang.

"Alright, then you stay here and tend the fire."

Shang Yanfang thought for a moment and then said.

Gao Jianguo felt a surge of joy at successfully staying in the kitchen and being able to spend more time alone with the little girl.

"Jianguo, fill the pot with water and bring it to a boil," Shang Yanfang ordered.

"Okay." Gao Jianguo filled a bucket with water and poured it into the large pot.

"Okay, okay," Shang Yanfang hurriedly called out.

Seeing that there was so much more water than I wanted, I couldn't help but comfort myself by telling myself that I would fill the thermos later.

"What's wrong? Is it too much?" Gao Jianguo looked at Shang Yanfang pitifully, afraid that he had done something wrong.

Shang Yanfang glanced at her watch; it was still early.

"It's alright, it's alright, go ahead and burn it, make the fire bigger." Seeing that Shang Yanfang wasn't angry, Gao Jianguo felt relieved.

She cut the potatoes and put them together.

I took a walk around the backyard and saw that the team leader and the others were still preparing for the roof-raising ceremony.

"Hey, Xiao Shang, have you prepared firecrackers?" Captain Lu asked as she approached.

"Do we need to set off firecrackers?" Shang Yanfang asked, looking puzzled.

Team leader Lu thought to himself: Okay, no need to ask anymore, I know.

"Don't worry, I have some at home. It's just some that we didn't finish releasing last year. You don't mind, do you?" Captain Lu comforted Shang Yanfang, seeing her anxious expression.

"No problem, no problem, Uncle," Shang Yanfang quickly replied.

"It's alright, I'll have your third brother Lu go back and get it right away."

Team leader Lu comforted Shang Yanyan.

"Lu San, Lu San," Captain Lu called out to his youngest son.

"Dad, what's the matter?" Lu Youyou asked as she walked over.

"Go back and bring all our firecrackers over. If you don't know where they are, just ask your mother. Remember to hurry."

"Okay, Dad, don't worry." Lu Youyou replied and ran off.

"Uncle, you're busy." Shang Yanfang went back to the kitchen with a preoccupied look on her face.

"What's wrong, Yanfang?" Gao Jianguo asked, noticing the girl's unhappiness.

"I just forgot to buy firecrackers," Shang Yanfang said softly.

"I'll go buy it now. It's my fault, I didn't remember." Gao Jianguo said, and tried to run out.

"Don't worry, the captain has some at home. Brother Lu went back to get it."

Shang Yanfang stopped Gao Jianguo and said.

"Okay, the water in the pot is ready." Gao Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that a solution had been found.

"Fill the thermos first," Shang Yanfang said, and started to pick up the bowl to pour the contents into the thermos.

"Don't touch it, it's hot." Shang Yanfang, who had just picked up the bowl, was scolded.

"I'll fill it up, I'm tough as nails," Gao Jianguo said, already filling the kettle to the brim.

"I need to put the chicken in a pot and boil it first. Boil it until the blood foam rises to the surface."

Shang Yanfang gave a brief instruction, worried that water might splash onto the man later.

The man, however, thought she was scared, so he took the chicken from the girl's hand and threw it all in.

Shang Yanfang stared blankly at the man's actions.

"Okay, it's in." Gao Jianguo turned his head and saw the little girl staring blankly as he spoke.

"Let it simmer for a while until the blood foam rises to the surface."

Shang Yanfang subconsciously blurted out what to do next.

“Okay, you can just keep an eye on things from the side,” Gao Jianguo said.

Shang Yanfang scratched her head. Wasn't she supposed to cook this dish? Why was she now the one giving instructions?

"Is that so?" Before she could figure it out, Gao Jianguo asked another question.

"Yes, take the chicken out and wash it with water," Shang Yanfang continued, and Gao Jianguo did so quickly.

"It's all clean." Gao Jianguo looked at Shang Yanfang with sincere eyes. The implication was: What's next?

"Scrub the pot clean, add oil and stir-fry, add water and simmer. After the meat is cooked, add the potatoes and simmer together. Simmer for another ten minutes."

Shang Yanfang, as if under a spell, explained the general process.

"Alright, just watch and tell me if you make a mistake." Gao Jianguo said with satisfaction this time.

Gao Jianguo handled all the subsequent procedures by himself.

It made her happy for her entire life.

This man is great; he's handsome, rich, has a great physique, and is equally adept in social situations and domestic duties.

"Okay, do you want to try it?" The infatuated girl was caught red-handed.

"Okay, okay, I'll try it." Shang Yanfang awkwardly picked up her chopsticks and took a bite.

"Mmm, delicious, really delicious. How about you cook all the meals for our family from now on?" Shang Yanfang exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"Okay." Gao Jianguo was overjoyed.

"Knock, knock, Brother Guo, Shang Zhiqing, it's almost time." Lu Youyou, who had been standing at the door and had overheard the two talking the whole time, couldn't help but kowtow awkwardly.

No wonder the other three educated youths didn't come to call them.

“Okay, Brother Lu, I’m coming right now.” Shang Yanfang replied and pulled Gao Jianguo toward the backyard.

"You, you two are really together?" Lu Youyou asked Gao Jianguo, still somewhat incredulous.

“Yes, you saw it too, didn’t you?” Gao Jianguo proudly shook the hand he was holding with the little girl.

"Then you must treat my sister Yanfang well. Her brother is enough to give you trouble," Lu Youyou threatened.

"Don't worry, I'm too busy taking care of the little girl to even think about bullying her," Gao Jianguo said, indicating that such a thing would never happen.
