Regarding Lu Junan's identity, Lu Lin and Jiang Manyue didn't want to explain too much to outsiders, so they simply didn't deny it. Following the instructions of the photo studio owner, they took an intimate family photo.
It can be said to be intimate, but it is just that the two people sit together, their bodies slightly tilted towards each other, their heads tilted towards each other, and they are a little closer.
The studio owner was finally satisfied. "Look at this handsome man and beautiful woman. What a great photo!"
The two smiled but said nothing. The boss then asked, "How many inches do you want to wash?"
Jiang Manyue thought for a moment and asked, "These photos are to be sent back to my hometown for my parents to see. We want to print them larger, the kind that can be put in a frame. We can print a few more and display them at home."
The studio owner, familiar with the process, took out a sample photo and said, "Just print a six-inch photo in a frame. Do you think this size is enough?"
Jiang Manyue saw that the size was the normal photo size and people's faces could be seen clearly, so she directly asked for three copies of each photo to be printed.
They just took a group photo and also took individual photos of the three of them. Jiang Manyue planned to send Lu Lin and Lu Jun'an's photos along with the group photo to her parents-in-law, and send her own photo separately to her parents so that her mother would have a photo to look at when she missed her.
The owner of the photo studio quickly calculated the price. After Jiang Manyue paid the money, they agreed to pick it up three days later, and the family of three left the photo studio.
At the same time, the Jiang and Lu families, who were far away in their hometown, received letters from the Yunzhou Military Region.
The old couple of the Lu family received it frequently and were not surprised by it, but Miao Xianghua was extremely excited and could not wait to open it.
Jiang Manyue missed her so much during the days she was away from home that she dreamed of the girl coming back at night. When she woke up, she felt very lost and had no energy to work.
After receiving the letter from his daughter, Miao Xianghua was so happy that he almost cried. Then he read in the letter that Jiang Manyue said that she was living well, the house allocated by the army was spacious and comfortable to live in, and she and Lu Junan also had a trip around Yunzhou. He finally felt relieved.
When he saw the end of the letter, Miao Xianghua was stunned. Then he took out a small stack of brand new banknotes from the envelope and counted them. It was exactly two hundred yuan.
No wonder the letter felt so thick when I held it just now. It was only two or three sheets of paper. It turned out that there was money stuffed in the envelope.
Miao Xianghua looked at the money and was not very happy.
My daughter is far away in Yunzhou. Unlike in the countryside, she has to buy everything she eats and even has to go to the street to buy vegetables.
Her own expenses were already so high, and she still had to send money home. Miao Xianghua really didn't want to take this money.
Miao Xianghua looked around and saw that there was no one else at home, so he simply hid the money. He planned to wait for the whole family to come back and write a reply letter to Jiang Manyue together, and then secretly put the money in the envelope and send it back without letting his family know.
A few days later, Jiang Manyue, who received replies from both sides of her parents, was surprised to see the two hundred yuan she had sent back in the envelope sent from the Jiang family.
In the letter, Miao Xianghua repeatedly advised her not to send money home anymore. She said that she was in the army, which was different from the countryside, and had to spend money everywhere. She should keep the money for herself and make sure her family lived a decent life. She should not worry too much about home.
Jiang Manyue was helpless. She had wanted to leave some money for her mother before leaving, but she was afraid that she would refuse to accept it. So she thought of sending it back after joining the army. She didn't expect that it would be sent back to her.
Her mother was really worried that she wouldn't have enough money in the army and didn't want to take any money, so she had no choice but to give up.
Jiang Manyue took two new envelopes, put the photos in each, attached a few short words, and sent them out the next day.
Now Lu Jun'an is in school, and Lu Lin is busy with training and rehearsing during the day. Jiang Manyue has a lot of free time, so she started thinking about finding out where the black market is.
According to her experience, the black market will not be located in a particularly prosperous area in the city center, nor will it be near places like military areas. If you want to find a black market, you probably have to look in a more remote place.
Anyway, she usually has nothing to do at home, so she just goes out to kill time.
After lunch, Lu Lin sent Lu Jun'an to school and went to rehearsal. Jiang Manyue went out and took the bus.
She didn't have a clear destination, she just planned to get to the city first and then find a way.
Fortunately, Yunzhou city is not very big and there are only two bus lines, otherwise she doesn’t know when she will be able to find a way back.
Jiang Manyue got off at a random stop, found an empty corner and entered the space, changed her clothes and then came out.
Now that she lives in the military area, she has to be more careful about her words and actions. If Lu Lin is implicated, it will be a big trouble.
Jiang Manyue was strolling on the street when suddenly someone approached her stealthily.
As the man approached her, he lowered his voice and asked, "Do you want some leather shoes from Shanghai?"
Jiang Manyue understood instantly that this person must be a dealer who was looking for buyers on the street.
Not everyone can afford small leather shoes. This person probably doesn't have many ways to resell them, so he chooses the retail route.
Jiang Manyue pretended to be interested, "Do you really have leather shoes from Shanghai?"
Seeing that Jiang Manyue was interested, the man quickly pretended that they knew each other and walked side by side.
"It's definitely a trendy product from Shanghai, and the quality is top-notch."
"Then I'm going to go take a look at the goods. Are there any styles I can pick out?"
After disguising herself, Jiang Manyue looked fashionable and beautiful. The man was not surprised that Jiang Manyue wanted to see the goods and pick and choose, so he took her directly to the place where leather shoes were placed.
Jiang Manyue followed the man all the way to the outside of a residential building. When she saw that the man was about to enter the doorway, she stopped.
"Why did you bring me here? Where are your shoes?"
The man pointed inside the doorway and said, "Go through the doorway from the back, no one else can find it."
Jiang Manyue didn't quite believe him. "Why did you bring me here if you were afraid someone would find you? Aren't you afraid I'd report you?"
The man shook his head. "If we can't distinguish between genuine buyers and those who are just fishing, we're not going to make a living in this kind of business."
Jiang Manyue thought, then you'd better quit. You can't see that I'm not a real buyer. I'm just fishing. But I'm not reporting, I'm just looking for a way to do business.
Seeing that Jiang Manyue didn't move, the man became anxious and said, "If you don't want it, just leave. Don't stand here and arouse suspicion."
When Jiang Manyue didn't move, she used her consciousness to take out a bottle of enhanced anti-wolf spray from the space. If anything happens, don't blame her for being rude.
Anyway, she could take refuge in the space at any time. Jiang Manyue hid her hands behind her back, squeezed the bottle of anti-wolf spray, retracted the space, and walked towards the doorway.
"Lead the way."
The man thought Jiang Manyue was still reluctant to give up her leather shoes from Shanghai, so he nodded and led her into the doorway.
