Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend-Chapter 39: Exploring the Black Market for the First Time
Following behind, Liu Pingyuan, under the flashlight’s beam, finally saw Gu Jin’s real face, and the wild boar meat in front of her. His heart finally settled.
To be honest, earlier when Jiajie said his cousin would go to the county’s black market to sell things, he thought the other was joking.
However, being from the same village, he knew the Gu Family had caught a wild boar, and knew his brother wouldn’t lie to him. So he rode his bicycle over in the middle of the night.
Gu Jiajie parked the bicycle, and with Liu Pingyuan, they lifted the large piece of over a hundred pounds of wild boar meat onto the center beam of his bicycle.
Gu Jin casually packed the pole scale and meat cutting knife into a cloth bag, and handed it to Gu Jiajie.
"There’s also braised stew in the kitchen, help me carry it out." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Coming!"
Gu Jiajie lowered his voice to hide the excitement, and followed Gu Jin towards the kitchen.
The braised pig innards were packed in a wooden barrel, along with a large basin filled with braised pig head meat.
The two carried the stew out and tied it with ropes onto Liu Pingyuan’s bicycle.
After doing all this, Liu Pingyuan asked trembling: "Are we leaving now?"
He was too excited, having long wanted to do something like this. Now finally catching the chance, how could he not be excited?
Gu Jin lowered her voice: "Wait a moment, I’ll go to the house."
She went to the second room on the right side, gently pushed the door open, and pressed the light on the flashlight with her hand, letting just a bit of light through, enough for her to see the child sleeping in bed.
Gu Jin walked over to the bed, seeing An Mingji sleeping deeply, the child hugging the quilt, sleeping sweetly.
Seeing this, she showed a tender expression, crawled over the child, and retrieved a flower-patterned cloth bag from under the mattress.
When Gu Jin came out, Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan had already pushed their bicycles to the door, waiting outside for her.
When they saw her come out, Gu Jiajie said: "Xiao Jin, ride my bike."
The rear seat of Liu Pingyuan’s bike was tied with a wooden barrel of braised pork, Gu Jin couldn’t sit on it.
She sat on the back seat of Gu Jiajie’s bicycle, holding the flower-patterned cloth bag in her arms.
Gu Jiajie whispered: "Hold on tight, let’s go!"
The two bicycles quickly left Gu Family’s gate.
Qingshan Village isn’t too far from the county, about ten kilometers. Walking takes about two or three hours, biking takes about an hour.
Around eleven o’clock, Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan, well-acquainted with the route, arrived at the county’s black market.
This time isn’t a peak hour, the black market was sparsely populated.
Gu Jin jumped off the bike, pulled out a strip of cloth from the flower bag to wrap her face, hiding her real appearance.
She also took out two pieces of dark-colored fabric from the bag and handed them to Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan: "Cover your face, don’t let people recognize you."
"Xiao Jin, you’re really thoughtful!"
Gu Jiajie took one piece of cloth, wrapped his face, only showing a pair of eyes.
Liu Pingyuan raised his eyebrows at Gu Jin, and took the last piece of fabric from her hand.
Gu Jin looked at the narrow alley in front, hugging the flower bag, and said to the two boys behind: "I’ll go for a stroll first, wait here for me."
"I’ll go with you!"
Gu Jiajie didn’t trust her alone.
"No need, I’ll be back soon."
Gu Jin said and walked away alone, heading deeper into the alley.
After about half an hour, Gu Jiajie began to worry when his cousin hadn’t returned.
