"Haha, honey, you're joking."
"If we actually opened a gold shop, we'd be arrested in no time."
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled.
"What I mean is that when policies allow private trading of gold in the future, it will be perfect for us to open a shop."
The two of us together have quite a lot of gold and jewelry.
Moreover, we have so much jade, and jade jewelry is especially beautiful.
It can definitely be sold for a high price; in fact, it's likely to become more valuable over time.
An Qingbai nodded.
“My wife makes a lot of sense, so let’s wait for the right opportunity.”
“Aber put all these boxes away. It will be more convenient when you need them, and you won’t have to walk so far to get things every time.”
"Okay, wife takes half, I'll take half."
"Hehe, honey, don't you really want to think about it anymore?"
"This is most of your family's fortune. What if I took half and ran away?"
An Qingbai walked over and gave his wife a deep kiss.
"I know you won't, my wife. No matter where you go, you will never leave me behind."
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and kissed her lover again.
"You know how to talk. Let's hurry up and pack up, it's time to get out of here."
"Um."
The couple stored all fifty boxes in the warehouse.
I turned the stones on the wall just like my father did.
"I never imagined that we would be at the foot of the mountain as soon as we came out from here. This idea is brilliant."
"Yes, I heard my father say that besides being skilled in carving, my great-grandfather was also skilled in designing mechanisms and secret chambers."
"That great-grandfather was really amazing."
"That's really impressive."
The couple walked home hand in hand in just a few steps.
"Let's clean the house first; it's all dusty inside."
"Okay, honey, you sweep the kang first, I'll go boil some water."
"OK."
Just as Zhuang Zhimeng was about to sweep the kang (a heated brick bed), An Qingbai came over, rolled up his wife's sleeves, and then went to boil water.
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and took the broom to sweep the kang (a heated brick bed).
The couple cleaned the room and laid out the bedding.
The couple brewed a pot of tea and sat on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Honey, when is the right time for us to let the dog out?"
"Let's talk about the truck that was picked up at midnight tonight."
"Alright, that's what I'll say if Mother asks."
When the topic turned to dogs, An Qingbai suddenly asked curiously.
"Honey, how have the dogs been dealing with their elimination problems these past few days?"
"Hehe, you might not believe it, but they just stayed still once they entered the warehouse."
They didn't need to eat, drink, or excrete; I almost thought they were dead.
I took them out to look at them when I went to the toilet on the train.
It moved as soon as I let it out, so I immediately took it back.
"Is it really that amazing?"
I was thinking, if they pooped everywhere, wouldn't the warehouse be filled with the stench of their food?
"I specifically designated a small area for them to move around in, but it turned out I didn't use it at all."
Furthermore, the dogs' excrement should also be considered garbage, and the warehouse will automatically clean it up.
Just as An Qingbai was about to respond, there was a knock on the door.
"Third brother, third sister-in-law, are you inside? Mother sent me to call you over for dinner."
An Qingbai opened the door, and Zhuang Zhimeng put on her shoes and went outside as well.
"Qinglin, what did Mother say?"
"Third Brother, our brigade received fish during the Spring Festival."
Mom cooked several fish for dinner, and our whole family ate together.
"Okay, we understand."
Zhuang Zhimeng happened to walk over and overheard.
"Then let's go over there."
An Qingbai locked the gate, and the three of them walked towards the old house together.
When we arrived home, everyone else was already seated.
Shi Meiling greeted them.
"We've been waiting for you all. Let's start eating now."
All the men in the family did the same thing: first, they picked up a piece of fish with their chopsticks and put it in their loved one's bowl.
Hu Yuelan smiled and was about to put it in her mouth when she suddenly covered her mouth and ran to the yard to vomit.
An Qingsong immediately chased after him.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
"I...wow..."
Hu Yuelan vomited again.
"What... what's wrong with Yuelan? I cooked this fish the way I always do."
Zhuang Zhimeng guessed.
"Mother, could my second sister-in-law be pregnant?"
Shi Meiling jumped up.
"It's very likely. Let the second son take Yuelan to see Tiezhu."
I'll hurry and cook another dish for Yuelan.
Shi Meiling came into the courtyard.
"Mom, what's wrong with my wife?"
Shi Meiling laughed.
An Qingsong became anxious.
"Mother, are you still laughing?"
"Haha, second brother, what's the rush?"
"You might be going to be a father soon, shouldn't you take Yuelan to see your Uncle Tiezhu?"
"Really? Mom, I'm going to be a dad? Haha, I'm going to be a dad!"
Shi Meiling glared at her son.
"Why aren't you going yet?"
"Okay, Mother, we'll go right away."
Hu Yuelan stood up and laughed at the man's silly grin.
An Qingsong quickly came over to help his lover.
"Come on, Yuelan, let me help you go find Uncle Tiezhu."
"I'm not that delicate."
"No, I have to help you go."
Hu Yuelan felt a sweet warmth in her heart when she looked at her husband, and she even remembered to greet her mother-in-law.
"Mother, let's go take a look first."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll cook you another dish, you can eat it when you get back."
"Thank you, Mother."
An Qingsong helped his lover to see the barefoot doctor.
Shi Meiling returned to the kitchen and started cooking again.
An Qingbai picked out the fish bones before putting the fish meat into his wife's bowl.
