Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

The road captain, who was about to leave, looked at Shang Guohua with a puzzled expression and asked, "Who is this?"

“This is my comrade-in-arms, and also Shang Zhiqing’s older brother. He’s going to sleep with me tonight.”

Lu Youyou explained.

"Is your father named Shang Erqiang?" Captain Lu asked suspiciously.

"Yes, Shang Erqiang is my father," Shang Guohua confirmed again.

"Your father and I were in the same war zone. He was also my superior."

Captain Lu reminisced about the past.

"Dinner's ready. Stop chatting." Aunt Lu came over carrying a large bowl of chicken.

"Let's eat," said Captain Lu.

The group ate and chatted.

The sun was setting, and the sky was getting dark.

The meal was finally finished.

"Uncle, you go back. I'll take her back and come back later." Shang Guohua said to Captain Lu and then went to take his younger sister back to the educated youth settlement.

"Brother, do you know that old man named Liu Nian'en?" Shang Yanfang asked curiously.

“Yes, I know him. He is still my idol to this day,” Shang Guohua said.

"Can I help them?" Shang Yanfang asked cautiously.

"You can help, but don't go out of the way to offer assistance. You can help them when they encounter difficulties," Shang Guohua said.

“Okay, I’ll help them if they get into trouble,” Shang Yanfang replied to her brother.

"Brother, I'm here. You can turn now," Shang Yanfang said, looking at the distance of less than 100 meters.

"You go in first, then I'll go back," Shang Guohua said.

At this point, Shang Yanfang realized that arguing about who went first was pointless.

She took a few quick steps and ran into the courtyard.

Then the little girl peeked out, waved to Shang Guohua, closed the door, and went back to her room.

Shang Guohua turned and left only after seeing that his younger sister had safely returned to the educated youth settlement.

Where did you pick so many chestnuts?

"I want you to manage."

"You picked them where you were picking them without telling us. How stingy!"

"You guys are so stingy, bring out your White Rabbit milk candy and let us eat it together."

"That's my candy. Why should I give it to you..."

Shang Yanfang woke up amidst a commotion.

Still half asleep, she finished washing up before asking what had just happened.

"Zhao Di, what was all that arguing about just now?" Shang Yanfang asked Li Zhao Di, who was cracking chestnut shells.

"That Wu Xiuli, seeing that we had picked up quite a lot of mountain produce, insisted that we take her to pick more. Her mother is really shameless."

He Lingling chimed in from the side.

"Never mind him, we're still going to the mountain to keep picking them up today," Shang Yanfang comforted her.

"Go have some breakfast, we're going up the mountain later," Liu Yan reminded her.

"Okay, you guys go ahead and eat, I'm going to eat." Shang Yanfang said as she went back to the kitchen to find food.

"Yanfang, let's go up the mountain," Gao Jianguo and Shang Guohua said as they entered the educated youth compound.

"I'm eating, just a moment, I'll be right there," Shang Yanfang said, holding up her bowl.

"No rush, eat slowly," Shang Guohua said.

"I won't go up the mountain with you today; I have to go to the commune," Shang Guohua said before riding off on the brigade leader's bicycle.

"How did those wild animals go yesterday?" Shang Yanfang asked the man beside her.

"They're alright. I'll process them today and marinate them tomorrow. I'll bring two back for your brother when he goes back, and send two more to your family."

Gao Jianguo then revealed his plans.

"Oh, I'm full," Shang Yanfang said lazily, rubbing her little belly.

"You rest for a while, I'll go wash the dishes, then we'll go up the mountain," Gao Jianguo said, looking at the little girl lying there lazily.

"Thank you, Brother Jianguo," Shang Yanfang said in a sweet, coquettish voice.

Gao Jianguo paused in his work and gave the little girl a meaningful look.

Shang Yanfang was completely unaware of where she was lying.

"Alright, let's go." Gao Jianguo called out as he walked over after washing the dishes.

"Okay, Lingling, Zhaodi, Sister Yanzi, let's go, let's go up the mountain," Shang Yanfang said to the group.

"I'm here," He Lingling replied.

"I'll take it." Gao Jianguo watched as the little girl picked up the large basket next to her, then took it from her and carried it himself.

"Okay, you take it." Shang Yanfang didn't stand on ceremony with Gao Jianguo and simply refused to take it.

The group headed straight for the chestnut tree.

They picked chestnuts from three trees yesterday.

There are still two trees to collect chestnuts from today. Gao Jianguo climbed up the tree and shook the chestnuts to the ground.

"Yanfang, let's go see if there are any other mountain products nearby."

"Sure," Shang Yanfang said. In fact, she had already picked a lot of chestnuts yesterday.

She felt that the chestnuts she had picked, along with those she and Gao Jianguo had collected, plus the ones she had secretly put into her space, were enough for her to eat.

"Did you pick these chestnuts?" He Lingling asked the two of them, puzzled.

In her opinion, they could just pick them together, and then go pick walnuts after that.

"Lingling, I'm thinking of chopping some firewood today. I've collected enough chestnuts for myself," Shang Yanfang explained to He Lingling.

"Gao Jianguo, slow down and wait for me." Before she could finish her sentence, Shang Yanfang realized that Gao Jianguo was far away from her.

"Hurry up a bit," Gao Jianguo complained, but his feet stopped.

He even reached out his hand and grabbed the little girl when she walked up to him.

"Come on, I'll hold you back, that way we won't stray too far apart." Gao Jianguo was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"It's okay, no need to pull me. I won't fall behind this time either," Shang Yanfang said deliberately to annoy Gao Jianguo, and tried to pull her hand back.

"Sweetie, stop fooling around. I'm telling you the truth. I want to hold your hand, I want to be close to you." Gao Jiangui whispered in the little girl's ear.

Hearing the words she wanted to hear, Shang Yanfang stopped pulling her hand away and obediently let Gao Jianguo hold her.

"Gao Jianguo, look, look what this is?" Shang Yanfang saw a bright red flower blooming under a tree not far from them.

"Is this ginseng?" Shang Yanfang asked uncertainly.

In her previous life, she had only heard of ginseng, but had never actually seen it.

It is said that ginseng has a small red flower on top, and it is tied with a red thread when it is dug up.

In case the ginseng becomes a spirit and escapes.

"I'll take a look," Gao Jianguo said, walking over and carefully examining the ginseng.

"No, this is called Sanqi, which looks a lot like ginseng."

"However, this is also a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, which can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis," Gao Jianguo said.

"What are the characteristics of this ginseng?" Shang Yanfang was now fascinated by the feeling of finding treasures.

“Ginseng has round leaves, while Panax notoginseng has…” Gao Jianguo gave an example.

"I must work hard. I want to become someone who has also dug for ginseng," Shang Yanfang said confidently.
