Chapter 428: Hearing the News 2
The treasures they found were placed in the carriage and covered with an old mattress. After walking away, Feng Qingxue guarded the carriage, while Lu Jiang wrapped himself in an old military coat to cover his military uniform and went to the black market for another round.
He spent ten yuan to buy his wife a jade necklace and two jade bracelets.
They were bright and beautiful.
He didn't like other things, so he probably didn't like them either.
Feng Qingxue really liked them, but he bought them a little too expensively. The last time Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng went to the city to stroll around, they bought jade jewelry that was twice as good as these pieces, and they only spent eight yuan, with a jade snuff bottle.
However, if the husband gave her a piece of grass, even a blade of grass would be a fairy grass.
After putting away these pieces of jewelry, the couple ate some steamed bread and drove to the state-owned restaurant to meet their family.
Halfway through the journey, they suddenly heard someone calling them from behind.
No, it was Feng Qingxue.
Feng Qingxue heard the voice sounded familiar, and turned around to see, "Brother Feihong, is that you?"
"It's me, it's me!" Shen Feihong, who had been chasing all the way, held the shaft of the mule cart, panting, "Big sister, I'm glad to meet you. If I can't meet you again, I'm going to find you."
Feng Qingxue smiled: "Brother Feihong, you also know that we country people don't come to the city often. Can't you come to our house if you have something to do? You know where our house is. If you didn't meet us today, how long would you have to wait in the city? What do you want to find me for? You look like it's very important."
Shen Feihong smiled and rubbed his fingers.
"You might as well speak frankly, we can do it, and we will never refuse." Thank him for his help in the matter of Mr. Xu and his wife.
After hearing what Feng Qingxue said, Shen Feihong straightened his chest immediately, but lowered his voice very low, "Nothing else, just looking for big sister to buy some white flour, rice and other fine grains. Isn't it almost the New Year? I must get some good things. I went around all the black markets and most of the countryside, and only bought three pounds of flour in total, which is not enough for my grandmother to fill her teeth."
Fine grains are rarely seen in the black market. Most of the country people don't want fine grains when they receive rations, because the amount of coarse grains is large, and most of the production teams are poor and destitute, and many people starve to death, so it is even more difficult for him to find delicious fine grains.
Feng Qingxue smiled softly, "Come to our house tomorrow! I don't want money, I want things, you know."
Shen Feihong raised his thumb, "It turns out that I'm not the only one with good taste! Okay, I'll bring the good things I found to find you tomorrow morning. Your house is in Wanglou Brigade, it's easy to find!"
The goal was achieved, Shen Feihong turned to look at Lu Jiang, who had been silent but staring at him with a sense of vigilance, and said with a smile: "Big sister, this is your brother Lu Jiang who is serving in the army? He looks different from ordinary people, majestic and powerful, that's it!" He raised his thumb again.
Lu Jiang heard his wife mention Shen Feihong, nodded at him, but didn't say anything, and looked very majestic without showing his emotions.
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "He doesn't like to talk, brother Feihong, don't be surprised!"
"No! No!" Shen Feihong shook his head violently, "This is majesty, the majesty of a senior official, or the fierceness of a veteran in the battlefield, I know. Sister, it's settled, I'm leaving first, I have to go home and cook for my grandma!"
"Okay!" Feng Qingxue waved at him, making a gesture of goodbye.
