CHAPTER XXXVIII

At this time, a figure hurriedly ran over, "Fifth brother, I'm sorry, I just had a stomachache, that's why I ......".

Wang Wu waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to continue, "I told you to be careful at all times on the first day I came, if it weren't for the sake of your shortness of coming, I would ......"

The person who came was frightened and clever, and repeatedly promised that he would not make another mistake.

Wang Wu: "I'll give you another chance, there were two people who went in just now, and you can pay attention to them later, a man and a woman, not very old." ”

Lu Qijun nodded more sincerely, like them, it is not easy for them to eat, and it is not easy to find a job with money, he doesn't want to just throw it away.

If Zhou An was here, he would definitely be surprised, it seems that Wang Wu really has acting talent, he didn't even see it, this person called Wang Wu has been here for several years, and even to the point that others call him brother.

Of course, he was just surprised, after all, he and Chen Yan didn't care about Wang Wu's identity at all, but were more concerned about the situation in the black market.

Before today, the black market was just a word in Chen Yan's memory. In her previous life, she had heard others mention the black market, but she had never seen it herself. I didn't expect that today, by mistake, I actually broke into the black market.

Zhou An's curiosity is no less than Chen Yan's, or Zhou An's interest is greater than Chen Yan's. Chen Yan was simply curious about what the black market was like, but Zhou An met the black market when he wanted to find a way out for himself after feeling the pressure of his family. This is simply, "there is no way out before the car arrives at the mountain, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village", if the operation is good, Zhou An can even make a small profit from here.

In fact, the shops inside and outside the black market are similar, except that they put the cloth on the ground and put things on the cloth, so that even if they are discovered, it will be easier for them to escape.

Although the price on the black market may be more expensive than outside, the things here are relatively complete, and even brown sugar, white sugar, polished rice, and refined noodles that are difficult to buy by supply and marketing cooperatives are available here.

Another point is that most of the things in the black market can be bought, you can buy them without a ticket, such as food stamps and cloth stamps, these are not enough at home, don't you have to come to the black market! Therefore, it is always because there is a market, so it will exist, even in the seventies and eighties, when it was strictly forbidden.

There are still a lot of people in the black market, but most of them are covered with headscarves and try not to attract attention, such as Zhou An and Chen Yan who walk on both sides without a big grin, there are really none.

For a while, the two were once again treated as "stars" on the streets outside.

Zhou An and Chen Yan were also very helpless, they didn't expect that they would come here by mistake, if they had known, they would have to disguise themselves!

Fortunately, the people here are also in a hurry, because they are worried that someone will come at any time, so they don't have so much energy to pay attention to them. Even the people who come to buy things are like this, and the people who sell things are even less attentive, unless someone takes the initiative to ask the price, or else they will bow their heads like quails.

The two of them avoided a little bit, but they really got a little interest.

Originally, Zhou An wanted to pick up a leak by the way, but he was not the only smart person, if it weren't for something at home, no one would really want to exchange gold and silver jewelry for something. Because these are unavoidable, Zhou Anzhi is not very disappointed.

Touching his pocket, Zhou An took out the only two yuan left in his pocket and put it in Chen Yan's hand, "Xiaoyan, don't dislike it, I will make a lot of money for you to enjoy in the future, now there are two yuan left, you can watch and buy something you like." ”

In fact, two yuan is not a small amount, but Zhou An, who lived a luxurious life in his previous life, feels a little sorry for Chen Yan, if he is still the young master of the Zhou family, it is no problem to send a sports car, and he can buy anything he wants.

However, if he was still the young master of the Zhou family, he would not be able to meet Xiaoyan, there would be gains and losses, Zhou An still understood, so this idea was deliberately ruled out by him after a circle in his heart.

Looking at the two steel jumps in the palm of her hand, Chen Yan didn't have any dislike in her heart? It's too late for her to be happy, so how can she be too little? As the saying goes, the gift is light and affectionate, not to mention that this gift is actually not very light, and Chen Yan didn't expect that Zhou An would have two yuan on him.

However, after shopping around, Chen Yan's money was not spent in the end.

First of all, white sugar and brown sugar, there is no shortage in Zhou An's house, and then those fine noodles and fine grains, it is not easy for two people to take them empty-handed. Then there are soaps, but the price is too expensive, and Chen Yan is a little reluctant. Looking east and west, the two of them walked around, but they didn't buy anything, and they both felt a little bored.

However, the two of them are not without any gain, at least Zhou An has roughly figured out the price here, and if he has something to sell in the future, he will be able to set the price.

Just as the two of them were about to leave, Chen Yan's eyes were fixed on one place.

Although the person had his head bowed and was wearing a scarf, Chen Yan recognized who it was at a glance.

She quietly pulled Zhou An away from where they were standing now, and at the moment she left, she seemed to hear a faint exhalation.

"What's wrong? Are you going back? Zhou An was pushed into the corner by Chen Yan in a daze, thinking that Chen Yan was bored and wanted to go back. Shall we go home now? ”

Chen Yan was a little worried, lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking, and only after a while did she look up at Zhou An: "Okay, let's go back first, it's nothing to buy." ”

When leaving, Chen Yan unconsciously looked in the direction where the two of them were standing just now, and the corners of her mouth pursed.

The man wrapped in a turban, wrapped tightly all over his body, seemed to feel something, and looked up in this direction as the two of them left, and then lowered his head as if nothing had happened.

When the two of them left, Wang Wu, who had just been guarding the door, disappeared.

After walking a few steps, Zhou An turned his head sharply and glanced thoughtfully at the corner.

After the two of them left the narrow alley completely, Lu Qijun poked his head out of the corner and patted his chest, just now the man was so keen, he almost found himself, no, it seemed that he had been discovered. Isn't that scary?

There is only one corner between this alley and the black market, Lu Qijun said hello to the people next to him, just hid in someone else's house, and only came out when he heard movement, but he didn't expect to be found as soon as he came out.

Originally, he heard the fifth brother tell him to keep an eye on Zhou An and them, and Lu Qijun wanted to follow secretly, but now it seems that it is better to forget it.

The two returned to the photo studio, picked up snacks and alabaster, and said hello to the old man: "Uncle, you see that we are not easy to take, can you put these pots here first?" ”

"Yes, what's wrong with that? You can take the photos with you when you come to pick them up the day after tomorrow. "The old man is very simple, and he agreed to come down in one bite, anyway, these things don't take up much space.

Zhou An took Chen Yan and returned directly to Zhou's house.

The two of them smelled the smell of vegetables from afar, Zhou An pedaled his bicycle for four hours, and walked around the street for so long, smelling this fragrance, and suddenly his stomach growled twice.

Zhou An, who was thick-skinned like the corner of the city wall, was not ashamed, but proud, walked up with an iodine face, and did not forget to pull Chen Yan over with him: "What kind of good dish is this?" I smell hungry. Mom, you're amazing. ”

Hong Xiumei is still very clear about her craftsmanship, she can barely eat it, if you want to say how delicious it is, it can't be counted; If you want to say it's unpalatable, it won't.

The fragrance that Zhou An smelled was actually made by Zhou Xiuqin, and the old man was happy today and made a big bowl of braised pork, so far, all the stored meat of the Zhou family has been consumed.

Seriously, Zhou Xiuqin's mother-in-law neither beats nor scolds, Hong Xiumei's cooking skills are not good, and Zhou Xiuqin has not said anything about her, she can be called a good mother-in-law.

But I don't know why Hong Xiumei is afraid of Zhou Xiuqin, maybe it is an instinct for the daughter-in-law to be afraid of her mother-in-law?

So even if she praised Zhou An in her heart, Hong Xiumei didn't take the risk of taking the lead, and slapped Zhou An's hand that secretly wanted to take a bite first, "This is made by your grandmother, your mother doesn't have this skill!" Xiaoyan is also here, today grandma is happy and made a big bowl of meat, Xiaoyan remembers to eat more!. ”

The first half of Hong Xiumei's sentence is still talking to Zhou An, and the second half of the sentence is obviously talking to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan, who was dragged by Zhou An's hand to the kitchen, snorted, a little embarrassed.

To tell the truth, this is the most sumptuous meal Chen Yan has eaten since she was reborn, there is rice, meat, and two dishes, after eating, Zhou An opened the dim sum he bought, first took a piece and handed it to Chen Yan who was sitting next to him, and then Hong Xiumei Zhou Guojun.

Zhou Xiuqin didn't come back to eat, and there were still two or three big and three small ones at Zhou Guodong's house waiting for her to feed, so she came over and fried a plate of braised pork, took a bag of brown sugar, and a can of malt milk essence and left in a hurry.

The can of malt milk essence was bought by Zhou Xiuqin who asked Zhou Guoliang to exchange tickets in the army, and the gold was so expensive that even Zhou An was reluctant to give it to him.

Zhou An sent half of the braised pork over before eating, and Zhou Guodong was still watching Zhou Xiuqin feed the baby with a pacifier, his eyes were really amazing, like an old wolf who had been hungry for a long time.

Zhou An was a little unsure for a moment, whether Zhou Guodong was looking at the baby, or looking at the baby's rations, thinking about his lunch?

Of course, although Zhou Xiuqin has a little grandson, she is still very concerned about the situation of the eldest grandson. She said that she absolutely supported her eldest grandson's choice, and next week the national army was completely speechless, and the villain who was already crumbling in her heart was instantly knocked down and replaced with the banner of the enemy.

Chinese know that the best time to negotiate is at the dinner table, and the second is the lazy time after eating and drinking.

So when several people were full of food and drink and collapsed on the stool, Zhou Guojun estimated that it was almost time before he cleared his throat and took the lead in speaking: "Xiao An, what are you and Xiao Yan going to do?" ”
