Chapter 70 Preparing to Sell Wild Boars
By the time Gu Xiang and Gu Yuanyuan had learned how to write the character "爰", Gu Yiye's egg pancakes were ready.
To be fair, Gu Yiye does have some culinary talent. His simple egg pancakes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth after just one bite!
Experts say that plain congee is not nutritious and may even increase the risk of diabetes. Breakfast should not include white congee.
This is what Lin Shanshan came across while scrolling through Douyin (TikTok) in the underworld when she had nothing to do.
Gu Yiye handed Lin Shanshan a glass of milk: "Wife, eat slowly and drink some milk."
Lin Shanshan took it; it was neither too hot nor too cold, the temperature was just right.
She took small sips and drank it, her pouty little lips making Gu Yiye's heart flutter: My little wife looks so beautiful even when she drinks milk!
After breakfast, the water installer arrived. It seems that Bai Xue really cares about this son and is trying to get the water installed before their wedding.
The rice seeds have all been sown. The brigade isn't busy today. Gu Yiye wants to go to the black market to sell the wild boar meat. Since the space is in Lin Shanshan's hands, she has to go with her.
Since I have nothing else to do, I might as well go for a stroll in the county town.
Lin Shanshan specially changed into the clothes her parents sent from Shanghai: a white long-sleeved shirt with red polka dots, which was perfect for the current weather, which was neither too hot nor too cold, just right at 25°C.
Lin Shanshan, dressed in new clothes, sat on Gu Yiye's bicycle. Already beautiful, she looked even more stunning in the brightly colored clothes, a truly breathtaking sight!
The two were on their way to get a letter of introduction from Liu Jianshe. Along the way, the villagers they encountered all stared at Lin Shanshan with wide eyes.
There were voices of praise.
"City people are just different. They're good-looking and know how to dress. Look at that Lin Zhiqing, she's like a flower."
"That's right, Gu Yiye is so lucky, he managed to pick such a beautiful flower and take her home."
Some are sour.
"What's the use of looking good? Lin Zhiqing is obviously not good at doing things. He's all looks and no substance."
"My wife is so beautiful, I can't control her!"
Of course, these voices were all whispered. Gu Yi was tall and strong, and usually didn't smile, so most people in the village were a little afraid of him.
Lin Shanshan ignored the gossip and remained unaffected by it.
Sitting on the back of the bicycle, kicking my legs, I suddenly remembered the classic movie starring Maggie Cheung and Leon Lai, and started humming a song: "Sweet Honey, your smile is so sweet, like flowers blooming in the spring breeze..."
In the time it takes to listen to a song, we arrived at Liu Jianshe's home.
Upon entering the courtyard, they saw Yang Wenqing's parents and Huang Daren in the yard: "Director Liu, you are in charge of the militia company. My daughter hasn't come home all night. Could you ask the militia company to help look for her?"
Huang Daren muttered, "Maybe she went to find some other man herself."
These days, Yang Wenqing has been throwing tantrums because of the space. In addition, Huang Daren is too weak to satisfy her. Taking advantage of Huang Daren's need for her resources from the space, Yang Wenqing vents her anger on Huang Daren.
Huang Daren had had enough. If it weren't for the resources in her space, he probably would have run away long ago.
Now that Yang Wenqing has disappeared, the supplies have probably been wasted, so he's venting his frustrations.
When Yang's father heard this, he scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? You ungrateful wretch! We've been feeding and taking good care of you these past few days, and this is how you talk about my daughter?"
Yang's mother was still worried about her daughter and anxious, and just wanted to find Yang Wenqing as soon as possible.
Yang's mother pulled her husband aside, signaling him not to argue with Huang Daren at this moment. She then said to Liu Jian, "Director Liu, please help me find him."
Liu Jianshe said, "Okay, I'll have the militiamen search the place later."
Gu Yiye led Lin Shanshan in: "Director Liu, Shanshan and I are planning to hold our wedding banquet on the 27th. We would like to go to the county to buy some cigarettes and alcohol. Please give us a letter of introduction."
Liu Jianshe took out paper and pen, wrote out a letter of introduction for Gu Yiye, and said, "Congratulations to you both. Remember to invite me to your wedding banquet."
Gu Yiye replied, "Definitely."
Huang Daren's face darkened when he saw the girl he had longed for become someone else's bride, and he turned his head away from them.
Gu Yiye didn't care what he thought, and took his wife's hand to the commune to catch the bus.
Upon arriving in the county town, we first found Brother Lei and invited him to lunch at the state-run restaurant.
While eating, they chatted: "Brother Lei, I have ten wild boars here. Can you eat them all?"
In fact, a total of 13 were arrested, but 3 were kept for a banquet and for their own consumption later.
