Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life

Chapter 116 Letter

But Gao Jianguo showed no sign of leaving, so Shang Yanfang couldn't help but remind him:

"Um, honey, I need to change my clothes."

“Okay, then let your husband change it for you.” Gao Jianguo deliberately misunderstood Shang Yanfang’s meaning.

"Um, no need. I can do it myself." Shang Yanfang felt incredibly embarrassed. How could this be?

Gao Jianguo showed no intention of backing down this time. This was his wife, his wife alone. What was wrong with changing clothes?

He should learn now, because in a few months, when his wife is heavily pregnant and has difficulty moving around, he'll be the one doing all these things.

Gao Jianguo took out the outfit his wife was going to wear that day from the closet and was about to help Shang Yanfang put it on. Seeing that his wife wasn't cooperating, Gao Jianguo said earnestly:

"Honey, let me help you. In a few months, when your belly gets bigger and you have more difficulty moving around, I'll be able to help you then, won't I?"

After hearing Gao Jianguo's words, Shang Yanfang looked at her slightly protruding belly, sighed, covered her face with her hands, and let Gao Jianguo do as he pleased.

This was Gao Jianguo's first time experiencing a wedding procession; before, he had only ever taken his clothes off, and this was his first time putting them on.

He slowly removed his wife's long nightgown, exposing her beautiful body to him. She had only seen her vaguely in the dark before; this was the first time she had seen her clearly.

Shang Yanfang subconsciously squeezed her legs together, feeling the man's burning gaze lingering over her.

She carefully opened her fingers and, through the gaps between them, clearly saw that Gao Jianguo was bleeding from his nose.

She stopped covering her face and didn't care whether she was dressed or not; she simply sat up.

As she suddenly stood up, Gao Jianguo's nose started bleeding even more.

"Um, honey, I'll go out first. I'll help you get dressed tomorrow." Gao Jianguo was afraid that he would embarrass himself even more later, so he fled the house as if he were escaping.

Shang Yanfang quickly put on the clothes by the kang (a heated brick bed) and rushed to the yard to check on Gao Jianguo.

At this point, Gao Jianguo stopped thinking about that erotic scene and stopped having nosebleeds.

When he saw Shang Yanfang coming to find him, he gave an awkward smile.

"Honey, are you alright?"

"It's nothing, I just had a nosebleed because the weather was dry," Gao Jianguo said, wiping the water off his face with a towel.

"Oh, let's go eat!" Seeing that Gao Jianguo was alright, Shang Yanfang pulled him to eat.

"Sister, come and eat, or I'll finish it all later." Shang Guokang had already eaten three big steamed buns, and the one he was holding was four big steamed buns.

"You're not allowed to eat anymore," Shang Yanfang said, taking the two steamed buns in front of Shang Guokang and placing them in front of herself.

"Don't struggle, don't struggle. Honey, this is a hot bun, let's eat this. Let Xiaokang eat the cold one." Gao Jianguo then carried the buns he had just taken out of the pot to his wife.

Looking at the still steaming buns, Shang Yanfang handed the buns that were no longer so hot to Shang Guokang, and picked up a bun from Gao Jianguo's bowl and started eating.

"Sister, I want to eat the bun you took too." Shang Guokang took another bun from his bowl, but he was still arguing with Shang Yanfang.

That's how they usually interact; they bicker and argue sometimes. But their relationship is still pretty good.

As time went by, the weather gradually got colder.

Shang's mother and father knew she was pregnant and wanted to come and take care of her, but they were both too busy with their work, so they sent Shang Yanfang a large package and a letter instead.

Despite the strong winds, Gao Jianguo brought back the package and letter today.

After the black market was disbanded, Gao Jianguo devoted himself to making delicious food and taking care of his wife.

In just half a month, Shang Yanfang's pregnant belly began to show, and her face became rounder.

Besides studying with a few friends from the educated youth settlement every day, I also go for a walk with Gao Jianguo.

I don't know where Gao Jianguo heard it, but that pregnant women should exercise more, otherwise the baby will be too big to give birth to.

From then on, Gao Jianguo intentionally controlled his wife's diet and exercise.

"Wife, wife. I'm back." Gao Jianguo entered the main room carrying an oversized package.

Since I didn't see his wife's close friends, I knew they had gone back.

Gao Jianguo didn't dislike his wife's close friends; they were very tactful and understanding. He could even chat with his wife occasionally to relieve her boredom.

"You're back. Here. Have a bowl of ginger soup." Shang Yanfang said, pouring out the ginger soup she had just cooked from the coal stove.

This coal stove was left over when the black market was disbanded. They bought most of the items, but Gao Jianguo kept a small number of rare items and divided them among his brothers.

Looking at the bowl of ginger tea, Gao Jianguo gave a bitter smile. The ginger tea was effective, but it just tasted awful.

"Wife, I'll drink the ginger tea later. Come and see the letter and things Mom sent us."

Shang Yanfang had actually noticed her man's little scheme, but reading the letter was more important than making Gao Jianguo drink ginger tea. So she put the tea on the coal stove and went to Gao Jianguo's side to read the letter.

The letter contained roughly the following:

First, Shang's mother inquired about Shang Yanfang's health, then mentioned some things to be careful about during pregnancy, and wrote down everything clearly about the things she had sent her. Finally, she briefly mentioned Shang Guokang.

She asked Shang Guokang to help his sister and brother-in-law with housework and take care of their child, Yunyun.

"Sister, sister. I heard that brother-in-law went to pick up the letter and package written by our parents? How is it? Did our mother send me anything?" Shang Guokang was originally at the educated youth settlement and didn't plan to come to his sister's house today.

As a result, when he arrived at the educated youth settlement, he heard that his brother-in-law had a very large package. As soon as he thought about it, he rushed over.

"Well, Xiaokang, Mom said you should take good care of your little nephew from now on," Shang Yanfang told a white lie.

"I knew it, Mother still cares about her youngest son. Didn't she send me anything?" Shang Guokang said confidently.

"Well, this..." Shang Yanfang didn't know how to tell her younger brother after reading the letter in her hand. She had a feeling that there was nothing belonging to Shang Guokang in the package.

"The package hasn't been opened yet." At this critical moment, Gao Jianguo came to the rescue, pointing to the large package on the ground.

"Such a big package! No wonder everyone knew you went to pick it up, brother-in-law," Shang Guokang said with an "I knew it" expression.
