"Dongsheng, how many tables are you planning to set up tomorrow?"
Suddenly, Sha Zhu asked curiously.
"How many more tables can we set up? In the current situation, it's not easy to get enough food for two tables."
Jia Dongsheng smiled bitterly: "Alas, I am worried too. I have asked someone to help me get some food these days, but I don't know if I can get it."
"If you can't even come up with two solid dishes tomorrow, it will be a disgrace to you, sir."
"Indeed, at this time, it's okay to get some green vegetables, but it's not easy to get two main dishes."
Sha Zhu also sighed. After all, since he was moved from the kitchen to the bathroom, Sha Zhu could no longer bring food home, which led to a sharp decline in the food supply at home.
"By the way, Dongsheng, how about going to the black market tonight?"
Suddenly, Sha Zhu seemed to have thought of something and spoke with interest.
"black market?"
After hearing Sha Zhu mention this word, he really wanted to go and see it.
Of course, Jia Dongsheng didn't really want to go to the black market to buy some meat or something. In his homestay, he already had pork, beef, mutton, tiger meat, live chickens, ducks, and geese. He said he couldn't come up with two main dishes because he didn't want to be too ostentatious.
However, since this is the first time Jia Dongsheng gets married in two lifetimes, how could he possibly prepare only two main dishes? He must prepare four main dishes. He just says one thing and does another.
This is called being low-key in life and high-key in work.
Jia Dongsheng was still quite curious about the black market.
In his previous life, he had also been to the black market in the old city, but it was different from the black market of this era. The black market at that time had developed more formally. Even if there were some contraband items, they were just some antiques that had just been stolen.
But what was it like in that era? Jia Dongsheng heard from some old people that it was said that whatever you wanted could be bought on the black market.
It can be said that the black market is full of banned items, things that are not allowed to be seen on the market.
Of course, these words were just for listening. Jia Dongsheng didn't believe them, but he was still very curious about what could be sold on the black market today.
"Okay."
Jia Dongsheng nodded in agreement, then asked curiously, "Shazhu, do you know where the black market is?"
"Of course I do."
Sha Zhu nodded and told Jia Dongsheng an address, which was actually quite far from Nanluoguxiang. It would take at least half an hour to walk there.
"This is a huge black market in the city. If you can't buy anything good here, it will be even harder to buy things in other markets."
"Okay, let's go check it out tonight."
"Okay, let's go together tonight. How about 12 o'clock?" Sha Zhu set a time.
"no problem."
Jia Dongsheng knew that the black market was open from 11pm to 3am. Since it was dawning early, he would probably have to close the stall at 2am.
After making an agreement with Sha Zhu, Jia Dongsheng took Bang Geng back to eat.
"Sister-in-law, you go to work today. I'll go to the pigeon market and see if I can buy some meat or something."
"Um."
Qin Huairu nodded with a hint of anticipation in her eyes. She knew that Jia Dongsheng was going to prepare food and drinks for tomorrow's wedding, but she didn't know what delicious food he could get. With this hint of anticipation, Qin Huairu put her bag on and went to work.
Jia Dongsheng also left the courtyard afterwards, but did not go to the Pigeon Market. Instead, he visited various supply and marketing cooperatives and then went to the department store.
Taking this opportunity, he spent all the wine tickets he had.
There were Moutai, Wuliangye, Xifeng, Laojiao, etc. The wine tickets in his hand were a bit mixed, so he collected some of the wines. Finally, he sent all the wines to the fifth courtyard, put them in a secret room, and stored them.
Jia Dongsheng didn't plan to drink the wine in the short term, so he wanted to put it aside for 20 or 30 years. Anyway, the secret room was used to store things, and the wine would not lose its flavor within 30 years.
After everything was done, Jia Dongsheng came to Xueru Silk Shop.
"Dongsheng, you're here."
Chen Xueru was still as charming and beautiful as ever. When she saw Jia Dongsheng coming in, she immediately gave him a big smile.
"Sister Xueru."
After saying hello, the two walked towards the back hall. As soon as they entered the back hall, Chen Xueru closed the door and couldn't help but hug Jia Dongsheng's waist.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was a little weird. The reason was very simple.
Two days ago, when Jia Dongsheng came over to drink with the two young women, he told them that he was getting married on the 10th.
Although the two young women behaved very normally at that time, but now when he felt the strength of Chen Xueru's arms around him, Jia Dongsheng understood that this was Chen Xueru's reluctance to let go.
"Sister Xueru."
Jia Dongsheng held Chen Xueru's hands, exerted a little force, and broke free, then turned around and hugged Chen Xueru in his arms. During this time, Chen Xueru just opened her eyes wide and looked at Jia Dongsheng without saying a word.
"Brother Dongsheng."
These four simple words made Jia Dongsheng feel Chen Xueru's inner uneasiness, which was something Chen Xueru had never shown when they were drinking before. Perhaps because Xu Huizhen was there at that time, Chen Xueru didn't want to show her weakness.
But now that they were alone, her uneasiness was completely exposed.
Ever since they started having a relationship, Chen Xueru no longer called Dongsheng "brother".
"Sister Xueru."
After whispering softly, Jia Dongsheng hugged the soft little woman in his arms even tighter.
"Go there."
Following Chen Xueru's gaze, he landed on the large sofa in the back hall, where everything began for them.
