Hearing this, Shen Yu felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey: the more nervous his fiancée was about him and the stronger her possessiveness was, the deeper her love was. He stretched out his arms and took Meng Tao into his arms: "My vinegar bottle is overturned."

Meng Tao poked his chest with her index finger: "I'm not a jealous person."

"What is that?"

"I'm a jealous person. If I overturn it, I can drown the whole world. If you dare to be with other women behind my back, think about the consequences."

Shen Yu held Meng Tao's face and kissed her, his breathing slightly disordered: "I don't have a childhood sweetheart, and I don't have any other woman. This heart has remained unchanged for twenty-seven years until you came. It opened up for you and can only accommodate you - now, in the future, and forever, there is only you... and you can only have me!"

Meng Tao was almost suffocated by his kiss, and it took her a while to calm down. The kiss was gentle and lingering. The two of them were immersed in happiness and sweetness, completely forgetting what year it was. Finally, it was Xiao Wangcai's noise that woke them up. When they looked at the time, it was two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Staying up late is bad for your health. Shen Yu sent Meng Tao to the bedroom to rest. He had wiped the furniture twice and made the bed during the day. But Meng Tao was so excited that she couldn't sleep. She said to Shen Yu, "You are used to getting up early. Go back to sleep first."

"What else are you going to do?"

"I'll play with Xiao Wangcai for a while."

In fact, you can enter the space, tidy up the stone platform, harvest and pick some vegetables and fruits, and when your emotions and mood gradually calm down, you will feel sleepy and fall asleep quickly when you come out.

How could Shen Yu know all this? He even became jealous of Xiao Wangcai and locked Xiao Wangcai out of the room. Then he turned around and helped Meng Tao unbutton her coat and said, "Lie on the bed. I'll leave when you fall asleep."

"I...I can do it myself!" Meng Tao quickly pushed him away. Although they were already very close, it was too much to ask him to help take off clothes.

Shen Yu grabbed her hand and said, "How about you help me take it off?"

Meng Tao rolled her eyes: "Have you finished taking off your clothes? Do you really want to sleep with me?"

"Comrade Meng Tao, I am your man."

Meng Tao: "...No certificate yet."

"With or without a certificate, I am everything!" Shen Yu was very domineering.

The two took off their coats, put on their autumn clothes and trousers, and lay on the bed, covered with a quilt and just chatting. Meng Tao was very honest at first and didn't dare to move, but she would get tired if she lay in the same position for a long time, so she simply stopped pretending and turned over as she liked, rubbing Shen Yu as a human pillow. She felt unsatisfied and finally lay on him directly - oh, the human cushion is so comfortable! Shen Yu was tossed to the point of almost bleeding from the nose: his fiancée was too cruel, such a naked temptation, he was a bloody man, he could look and touch but not really eat...

But he just didn't want to leave, he would rather be in pain and happy.

Fortunately, his fiancée had a human cushion, so she felt comfortable and fell asleep quickly with her arms around his neck.

Shen Yu let out a long sigh, looked at his fiancée who was sleeping soundly, and bit her face twice with love and hate: What a little devil, if she doesn't sleep now, he won't be able to hold on. He used up all his willpower to control himself.

In fact, after getting engaged and returning to the provincial capital, he wrote a marriage report and had it approved and stamped by his superiors, and put it in his suitcase. The date was blank. If he hadn't been worried that Meng Zhehan would say he was too impatient, he would have taken his fiancée directly to get the certificate when he returned this time.

Come back next month and get the marriage certificate! He wants to be her man.

The next morning, Meng Tao woke up and found herself in someone's arms. The person was resting with his eyes closed. When he noticed her movement, he opened his eyes and asked, "Are you awake?"

Meng Tao was stunned for a moment, and rolled her eyes as she recalled last night. She couldn't help but blush: "You...you didn't leave?"

"Um."

"Well...it's daybreak now, why don't you go for a run?"

"I am the groom, I won't run away."

"You are Emperor Minghuang of Tang. From now on, the emperor will not hold court early in the morning!"

Meng Tao tickled him, Shen Yu dodged with a laugh, and the two of them made a mess on the bed.

When they had played enough, put on their clothes and walked out of the room, Xiao Wangcai immediately ran over, rubbed his head against Meng Tao, looked at her aggrievedly, and glanced at Shen Yu out of the corner of his eye, as if complaining that this man was so bad and locked me out, and then he fell asleep himself.

Meng Tao squatted down and hugged Xiao Wangcai, comforting him: "Be good, I will make tiger meat for you later."

Only then did Xiao Wangcai become happy, and his tail wagged so hard that it made people dizzy.

Shen Yu asked: "Why is there tiger meat again?"

"I've always had them. I bought them from Ma Fengnian before the New Year."

"It's been so long since it went bad?"

"No, it's fine. I still have more than 100 kilograms. Because... it has been stored for a long time using a special method, it is probably almost like Tang Monk's meat, with magical effects. That's why I didn't dare to take it out to entertain the guests at the engagement party. They are not ordinary people and will notice it."

"You're right. Don't reveal something so special easily. If someone finds out, you can just blame it on me."

Shen Yu said, "Tell Yang Licheng to come over next month and take the tiger meat away. Someone needs it as a medicine. I received the message, but I haven't replied yet."

"Sure, my little warehouse is full, come and take it anytime."

"Why keep the peach blossom wine and tiger bone wine? They take up space. Even if we give them to our family, they can't finish them and will make more."

"You can store it somewhere else instead of taking up the small warehouse. The wine won't go bad. The old peach blossom wine and tiger bone wine are especially rare. Besides, they are not ordinary goods. You have to raise the price a bit and wait for the right time to release them."

"All right."

The two of them made breakfast together, changed their clothes and went out, leaving Xiao Wangcai to look after the house.

Shen Yu's car was parked in the nearby unit's staff compound, but they didn't go to get it. Instead, they walked to the street. There was nothing urgent anyway, so they just took it as a walk.

The weather is a bit gloomy today, and it looks like it's going to rain. The temperature is very low, and many people on the street are wearing cotton-padded clothes again. Meng Tao took out two masks from her backpack, gave one to Shen Yu, and wore one herself. She was going to go to the black market later. It would be a waste of opportunity if she didn't go to the black market when she came to Mengzhou.

I went to the post office first and called Ma Fengnian, but he said he was out driving, so I had to hang up. I then called Zhang Fu, too. Since the shipment would be next month, I asked him about the winery's situation and asked for some wine in ceramic jars to store.

Zhang Fu was very happy when he received Meng Tao's call. He talked a lot like a chatterbox. He only said a few words about the wine and guaranteed to do whatever Meng Tao asked for.

The main purpose was to share his spoils with Meng Tao - this guy was quite smart, and he took advantage of the New Year to visit all his relatives and friends, claiming to be visiting relatives and friends, but in fact he specialized in conquering local recycling stations, and with some small favors, he could go in and look for old things, which allowed him to gain a lot of good things.

Zhang Fu said, "When you come to the county town someday, or when I have time to go to Linshui Village, I will give you a few more things you like."

"You know what I like?"

"Just those beautiful porcelains and white jade. You are not a vulgar person like me. You don't like gold, silver and jewelry."

Meng Tao was speechless. Brother, are you stupid? I don't like gold and silver jewelry, so why do I work so hard to do business and make money? "Well, no matter how much you give me, I want it, but I pay for it."

"You look down on me, don't you? I don't have any money?"

"It's not that I look down on you, I'm just afraid that you'll regret it later and ask me to take it back. What if we're brothers? We should settle accounts clearly. I won't return things that we've traded with you."

"Then just give me one or two dollars. I found it anyway."

"Okay, I won't be polite. No matter what you give me, I'll keep the same price, five dollars for each item, no more."

"Okay, let's make it a deal." Zhang Fu complained, "I gave it to you with good intentions, but you had to do this. It makes it so that there is no affection at all."

Meng Tao couldn't help but smile: "I appreciate your kindness."

"That's more like it."

Meng Tao hung up the phone, and Shen Yu also made two calls back to the provincial capital to handle some work matters.

The two of them left the post office and strolled along the way slowly. Shen Yu asked, "Who is that Zhang Fu? Why did he give you something?"

"Zhang Fu is the young man I told you about who took care of Jin Niu in the hospital. He has a good personality. Brother Jin Niu and I both get along well with him."

"Don't ask for anything from him if you are being nice to him."

Meng Tao grabbed Shen Yu's hand and shook it, "Why don't you let him take it? I was the one who pointed him in that direction. Now he only has eyes for gold and silver. He doesn't care about old things like porcelain at all, and he doesn't know how to keep them. If I don't take them, he will throw them around and they will break. Isn't that a waste? When he slowly comes to his senses and knows the value of these old things, he may not give them to me if I want to ask him for them again."

Shen Yu couldn't stand his fiancee's coquetry, and softened after being shaken twice by her: "Then you can accept it, but remember, he is a friend of Brother Jinniu, you should keep your distance and don't act too familiar, which may easily cause him to misunderstand."

"You want to misunderstand, right? You are such a jealous person."

Shen Yu ruffled her hair and imitated her tone: "I'm not a jealous person, I'm... a jealous person!"

After saying that, both of them laughed.

He went into several stores along the street, selling local products, non-staple foods, and supply and marketing cooperatives, and bought some candies and snacks. Shen Yu carried them in his hands. Since he was in Xingzi Lane, he had to go visit his neighbor Aunt Wang's house. She had children at home, so he had to bring some gifts.

Then we crossed two streets and arrived at an old alley with a slightly sloping slope. This was the black market.

I don't know what day it is today, but there are a lot of people in the black market. There are small stalls one after another, and transactions can be seen everywhere, including coarse grains such as corn and beans, as well as side dishes and snacks. There are also baskets of lush, fresh and juicy wild vegetables, such as shepherd's purse, moss, dandelions... These are sent from the countryside.

Meng Tao was surprised to see a stall owner selling oranges. The fruit stems looked very fresh, obviously they had just been picked from the tree.

The oranges that can still be left on the trees after the Chinese New Year must have been carefully maintained. For example, the two orange trees in Zhou Cuiling's home are only picked during the Spring Festival.

Therefore, these fresh oranges are very precious. The boss asked for a price of three yuan per pound, but there are still many people coming to buy them.

Meng Tao also bought two kilograms and put them into the space through her shoulder bag.
