Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

Shang Yanfang led her mother directly into her room.

"This room is quite nice," Mrs. Shang said as she walked around the room.

"Mom, you can squeeze in with me here today," Shang Yanfang said, pointing to the kang (a heated brick bed) on the side.

"Okay, I'll have a private chat with my daughter tonight." Mrs. Shang readily agreed. Why would she object to her daughter sleeping with her?

"Mom, leave these bags here for now. We'll move them back when my little brother comes over." Shang Yanfang said, looking at the four large bags of luggage on the ground.

"Okay, we'll leave them here. These three big packages are what your dad and I prepared for you," said Mrs. Shang, pointing to the three larger packages.

At work, Shang Guoqiang, the second brother, and Shang Yanyan, the eldest sister, were saying, "..." Mom, we also prepared things for our little sister! Why didn't you say so? Are we not worthy?

"Why did you bring so much? It's so heavy!" Shang Yanfang looked at her mother with great concern.

"Hey, are you getting married? Your mother has brought all the necessary things." Shang's mother touched her nose a little awkwardly. When she and Old Shang were preparing at home, they didn't realize there was so much. How come their daughter has brought so much?

"Alright, alright! Let's go ask my brother what his plans are for tonight!" Shang Yanfang said helplessly.

"Okay, let's go take a look." Mrs. Shang finally felt relieved. Thank goodness, her daughter wasn't angry.

"Captain Liu, my brother is also an educated youth who came to our village. What do you think we should do to make arrangements for him?" Shang Yanfang and her mother found Liu Guoqiang chopping wood in the woodshed.

"It's Shang Guokang, right? Oh, so he's your brother. The brigade leader told me about this yesterday. We've already made room for him in the bed."

Liu Guoqiang stopped chopping wood and said.

"Okay, thank you for your understanding, Liu." Shang Yanfang thanked Liu Guohua and went back to her room.

As for letting her younger brother make up his bed first, that's wishful thinking. That's a room for male educated youth; if she went in, things would get out of control.

"You said they were riding bicycles, so why are they slower than us?" Shang's mother was very puzzled.

"Mom, sister. Look what Brother Gao and I just caught!" Shang Guokang, who was being nagged, arrived at the educated youth settlement led by Gao Jianguo.

Hearing the shouts, Shang Yanfang and her mother went out of the room and saw her silly younger brother carrying a pheasant in his mouth, hopping and skipping towards them.

Shang Yanfang instinctively dodged, and Shang Guokang couldn't brake in time, crashing directly into the door frame.

The other educated youths who had also been drawn out by the shouts thought, "Is this kid a little mentally challenged?"

"Go back, everyone. My brother has always been a bit slow on the uptake," Shang Yanfang said, successfully driving away the educated youth from the front yard.

The other three female educated youths in the backyard looked at Shang Guokang with pity.

"What are you pretending for, you little brat? Turn around and face me!" Shang's mother slapped Shang Guokang on the back without any mercy.

Shang Guokang slowly turned around, a large red and swollen patch on his forehead.

Shang Guohua: "..." Baby is suffering inside, but Baby won't say it.

When Shang's mother saw her son's comical behavior, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Mother." Shang Guokang was very resistant when he saw his mother making fun of him.

"Xiao Kang, I don't usually laugh unless I can't help it. Hahahaha." Shang's mother's words really hit home.

Shang Guokang turned his gaze to Shang Yanfang, "Sister, why did you hide just now?"

"Little brother, if I don't hide, your brother-in-law will get jealous," Shang Yanfang said in a ridiculous way.

Actually, she was afraid that Shang Guokang would rush over and knock her down with him.

"Brother-in-law, where did I get a brother-in-law?" Shang Guokang was still completely bewildered. "Sister, you must be kidding me, right?"

"No, this is your brother-in-law." Looking into her silly younger brother's clear, big eyes, Shang Yanfang decided to give the boy a good beating.

"Brother Gao? You're my brother-in-law?"

"Yes, my name is Gao Jianguo, and I'm your sister's boyfriend." Gao Jianguo also took the opportunity to introduce himself.

"Hello, Auntie. You must be tired from your journey. I was thinking we didn't have much to offer you, so I went up the mountain and caught a few chickens. I'll show you my skills later." Gao Jianguo tactfully struck up a conversation with Shang's mother.

Shang's mother also gleaned important information from this self-introduction: "Jianguo, you said you can cook?"

"Yes, Auntie, I'll show you what I can do in a bit."

"Well done, young man. There are so few men who can cook these days." Mrs. Shang was growing increasingly fond of this young man.

Shang Yanfang watched this scene with great surprise. Her mother had said she wanted to further evaluate Gao Jianguo, but now they were already chatting and laughing together.

"Yanfang, Yanfang, is this your brother?" He Lingling asked, pointing at Shang Guohua, who was still questioning his life, after watching the whole drama unfold.

“Yes, this is my brother, Shang Guokang.” Shang Yanfang grabbed Shang Guokang, who was still lost in thought.

"A blood relative?" Li Zhaodi asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Yes, he's my younger brother." Shang Yanfang deliberately emphasized the word "younger brother" to prove that what she said was indeed true.

"Well, why does this kid seem a little dim-witted?" He Lingling, that straightforward girl.

"He must have been traveling for two days and is tired. He'll be fine after we have dinner together tonight," Shang Yanfang coaxed the young girl in front of her.

"Oh, okay. Let your little brother get ready and rest!" He Lingling said, then went back to her room with Li Zhaodi. Liu Yan also smiled at Shang Yanfang and went back to her room.

Shang Yanfang planned to take her younger brother with her luggage to make the bed, but as soon as she entered the room, she heard Gao Jianguo praising Shang's mother.

"Auntie, you look so young! If Guokang hadn't called you 'Mom,' I would have thought you were her older sister!"

"No, no. I'm old now." Mrs. Shang said, her mouth almost stretching to her ears.

"So, Mother, you didn't come here specifically to accompany me, but because my sister is getting married, that's why you came?" Shang Guokang finally realized what was going on.

"Well, Guokang, it's true that your mother was afraid you'd get lost, you're so silly!" The first sentence was enough to extinguish the anger in Shang Guokang's heart. But the second sentence ignited the fire within him again.

"Mother, Mother, you're making me so angry!" Shang Guokang said, and started to walk outside.

"Wait for Guokang." Hearing his sister's call, Shang Guokang turned around to look at Shang Yanfang. His sister was still the best to him.

"Here's your package. Go back to the male educated youth's room and make your bed." Shang Guokang felt his heart was broken.

"Don't we need to take those packages?" He still looked at the remaining three large packages on the ground, unwilling to give up.
