And so, the woman followed them all the way back to Anshi.
As soon as Hei Zi returned, he went to the house in town where the goods were stored, sorted out the goods that the group had carried back, and got ready to start working.
…
When goods from Guangzhou are brought to the black market, they are considered fresh and fashionable, and are immediately snapped up by everyone, with demand exceeding supply every day.
Xu Xian, on the other hand, seems to disappear all day long, and it's impossible to find him.
Hei Zi couldn't handle it all by himself, so he had to go and persuade Yan Xiao.
…
Yesterday, Yan Xiao told Wen Qinghe that he was going to town to help others for the next few days and wouldn't be back until evening.
In the morning, he first prepared breakfast and lunch for the little girl, and then asked Aunt Guihua to take care of her during the day before leaving home.
Breakfast was served on the stove in the kitchen, while lunch consisted of dishes and rice cooked by Yan Xiao and placed on the stove in the room.
There's no need to worry about it cooling down too quickly.
…
When he arrived in town, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
He and Hei Zi distributed the goods in batches to their subordinates, calculating the payment based on the number of items sold.
Apart from luxury items like watches, which only sold for a dozen or so, almost everything else sold out as soon as it hit the black market.
Yan Xiao and Hei Zi were busy from morning till night.
It was almost evening, and he still had to go back to cook for the little girl.
However, there were also many Dacron clothes brought back from the warehouse, and it was definitely not enough to just ship the watches in town.
We also need to send people to try it out in a few other towns.
He frowned as he thought of Xu Xian, whom he hadn't seen all day.
He asked Hei Zi, who was packing up, "Where's Xu Xian?"
Hei Zi thought of that old dog who had taken a woman and no longer cared about money, and he was furious: "He must be having a great time with that woman now!"
He hasn't even had a chance to go back and see his little girl yet.
But Xu Xian did just that; after getting off the train, he dumped everything on him.
…
Yan Xiao learned from Hei Zi that Xu Xian had brought a woman with him and disappeared as soon as he got out of the car, his face darkening considerably.
He asked Hei Zi to review the day's sales, while he rode his bicycle to Xu Xian's house.
The door was open, and Yan Xiao walked straight in.
Then I saw the person who hadn't shown up all day sitting under the eaves, massaging the shoulders and back of a woman, who was holding a bowl of peeled grapes.
This attentive manner suggests she's not being treated like a daughter-in-law, but rather like an empress dowager.
Moreover, everything she was wearing looked incredibly familiar.
Isn't this the stuff they sold all day from Guangzhou?
Yan Xiao frowned. It wasn't a big deal, but when he saw Xu Xian's family heirloom white jade thumb ring hanging around the woman's neck, he was quite surprised.
He immediately noticed something interesting about this woman.
Wearing just a few layers of clothing is fine.
But this jade thumb ring—in the past, anyone who touched it would get angry with Xu Xian, and that's no joke.
Upon seeing that it was Yan Xiao, Xu Xian was surprised for a moment, but quickly beamed and proudly introduced him to him.
"Brother Yan, this is my girlfriend, Liang Xiaoju. We're planning to get married soon. You'll have to give me a big wedding gift then."
Yan Xiao saw that the boy was so engrossed in it that he couldn't extricate himself, but he didn't say anything.
She only said to Xu Xian meaningfully, "Let's talk about it when you two are really getting married. And don't forget to go to work tomorrow, or you can forget about splitting the profits."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xian briefly snapped out of his reverie, realizing that he had indeed neglected his duties these past few days.
He then agreed with Yan Xiao.
...
After leaving Xu Xian, Yan Xiao went to find Hei Zi.
After Hei Zi told him the whole story of the two people, his eyes narrowed slightly. This woman was indeed not simple.
She deliberately seduced Xu Xian when he was leaving.
They'll come all the way here after knowing each other for only a few days.
What kind of well-bred girl would act like that?
It was getting late, so he asked Hei Zi to ask his friend in Yangcheng to investigate the woman.
He hurried back to cook for the little girl.
...
For the next two days, Xu Xian did arrive at the black market on time, but he returned home earlier than Yan Xiao every day.
Yan Xiao, who wanted to talk to him, was at a loss.
Before they could ascertain the woman's intentions, he and Hei Zi deliberately delayed his return. They also subtly reminded him to safeguard the money he had earned before the wedding.
At first, Xu Xian didn't understand, thinking that they were all people who had wives and were sharing their experiences with him.
But the next day, Yan Xiao told him that it was best not to get too close to that woman and that they could put the wedding on hold for now.
Xu Xian glared angrily at Yan Xiao.
"Brother Yan, what do you mean? Are you jealous of my happiness? You and Little Fairy can't get along, so you're trying to break up other people?"
He knew that Yan Xiao was still holding a grudge about their previous marriage.
How stingy!
Yan Xiao's face suddenly turned cold.
"I can't stand to see you doing well? Fine, then you'd better make it last."
Yan Xiaoqi thought this person was too stupid; he might get sold out in the future and still have to help the seller count the money.
...
The day the information from Kuroko's investigation was sent back, it was a full dozen pages thick.
He was so angry he almost laughed when he saw the story of the woman on the paper, which was even more exciting than a storyteller's tale.
She fooled so many people.
Everyone was completely charmed by her.
If this person wasn't dishonest, fine; if she wasn't a virgin, fine; even being divorced and single would be good.
The crucial point is that this person actually got married in several places.
They've been caught red-handed in Guangzhou.
She happened to run into Xu Xian, and in her desperation, she followed him back.
This guy brought back not only someone else's wife, but also a hot potato!
