Chapter 198 It's really a baby

"Brother Kangaroo, I got the things back for you, and the money was also given to the aunt."

Ergou casually put the black iron cat on the ground.

He also took out the jade pendant that was in his pocket and almost fell to the ground and handed it to Xu Lingjun.

Xu Lingjun almost screamed when he saw the dangerous pair of jade pendants just now. Fortunately, the pair of jade pendants were fine.

"Okay, brother Ergou, I've almost finished shopping, I'm leaving now."

Xu Lingjun put away the jade pendant and gave Ergou a box of cigarettes as a thank you for helping him.

Ergou quickly postponed it, but in the end of course he accepted it "with reluctance".

Although there are many treasures left by the previous space owner in Xu Lingjun's space.

But who would object to the lack of treasures? I am still very happy to find such a good dragon-shaped jade pendant.

After bidding farewell to Ergou, Xu Lingjun left the black market. He gained a lot this time.

Now the output in Xu Lingjun's space is enough for his "luxury" expenses.

This transaction mainly involves peanuts, soybeans and other agricultural products produced in his field.

Of course, those pheasants, hares, and the like were sold for a lot of money.

Not to mention eggs, which he exchanged for a lot of whole grains on the black market.

After throwing away today's expenses, including the seventy yuan given to Zhang Lanfang, he still had eighty-three yuan left, as well as some commonly used bills.

After leaving the black market, Xu Lingjun put everything he bought into the space.

He didn't bother to sort out these things and left on lightning.

Sun Haiwen walked around beside the carriage, standing on the carriage from time to time and looking in the direction of the black market.

However, it was so dark in the early morning that he couldn't see anything, and he didn't dare to make a sound, so he could only wait anxiously.

"Xiao Wen, Xiao Wen." Zhang Lanfang called out a few times in a low voice when she didn't see her son nearby.

"Mother, mother, you're back. Are you okay? Did you get any money in exchange?"

When Sun Haiwen heard her mother's voice, she quickly jumped down from the carriage in the woods.

When I came closer, I first asked about my mother's condition.

Seeing that the other party had nothing to do, I quickly asked him what he was most concerned about.

"I've got enough to get you a wife. Come on, let's leave quickly and we'll talk about it on the way."

"Okay, okay, mother, I'll help you get into the car. It's cold, so cover this."

Sun Haiwen was quite filial. He helped Zhang Lanfang onto the carriage and covered her with a sheepskin mattress.

"Okay, mother will come by herself, and you hurry up and catch the carriage."

"We have to rush back before dawn to avoid being discovered."

Zhang Lanfang's idea coincides with Xu Lingjun's.

She also wanted to keep a low profile so that no one would know that they went to the black market.

"Frame~" Sun Haiwen quickly swung the whip and made the horse trot.

After the carriage drove away, Zhang Lanfang touched the seventy yuan in his arms again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Wen, my mother has exchanged seventy yuan. After I give the rest of the gift, I will still have some left."

"I'll hold a wedding banquet for you when the time comes. Let's call a few familiar people from the team over and make it a lively affair."

"By the way, we have to call that Xu Lingjun. Last time he got married, our family paid fifty cents. Why don't we give him some gifts when he comes to our house?"

"I heard that someone on the team got married, and he gave several feet of that shredded cloth. This is a good thing~"

After Zhang Lanfang relaxed, she started talking more.

She made clear plans for her son's marriage, and even had Xu Lingjun's idea in mind.

Don't underestimate the small favors among the villagers, everyone has a favorite in their hearts.

Because there was a wedding between two families on the team last year, Xu Lingjun gave me the defective cloth.

There is no need to explain the origin of this one, and it is extremely popular, mainly because he still has a lot of it in his hands.

Sun Haiwen listened to his mother's arrangement and felt satisfied in his heart, smiling all the way.

Xu Lingjun quietly returned home with an extra 100 jins of white flour and 50 jins of cornmeal in his hands.

The old hen also got two, which he bought on the black market.

The hens in his space are less than a year old and are just about ready to lay eggs.

Now there are about ten more chicks in his space, all newly hatched.

Because the price of meat and eggs is very high, Xu Lingjun decided to expand the scale of breeding.

"Old Xu, take a break and I'll cook some noodles for you."

As soon as Xu Lingjun entered the house, Xiuzhi hurriedly greeted him.

"Xiuzhi, I won't let you get up. You are still in confinement!"

"I'm not that squeamish. The noodles have been cut and will be cooked right away."

Xiuzhi didn't fall asleep after Xu Lingjun left. She lay in bed worried for a long time.

Later, I couldn't lie down anymore, so I got up and rolled out noodles, thinking that I would cook noodles for Xu Lingjun as soon as he came back.

Xu Lingjun felt warm in his heart, this was the feeling of home.

Xiuzhi went to cook noodles, and he was not idle either. He opened the cupboard and hid the newly obtained white flour and cornmeal in the secret storage hole below.

When she was almost busy, Xiuzhi also cooked the noodles.

Each of them had a big bowl of noodles with a poached egg on top.

There is no shortage of eggs at home now. During Xiuzhi's confinement period, many people gave her eggs.

In addition, my family had raised chickens and saved some, but I couldn’t eat them anymore.

By the way, speaking of giving things away, Director Dong from the field department and Director Xu Wenchang from the logistics department secretly gave him some bills and cash.

It can be regarded as a reward for his loyal brother.

Xu Lingjun ate a bowl of hot noodles. There was food in his stomach and his whole body felt warm.

As usual, he went to the stable to feed the horses.

After everything was done, I found a deserted place and entered the space.

Xu Lingjun was still very excited. He made the same mistake as the protagonist today.

He first looked at the pair of jade pendants carefully, then opened a large box and found a piece of ancient jade for comparison.

Judging from the quality of the ancient jade, there should be no problem. It stands to reason that there should be no fakes in this era.

After looking at it for a while, Xu Lingjun was very satisfied and put the pair of ancient jades into the big box.

This was something he obtained through his own skills, which gave him a great sense of accomplishment.

After putting the jade pendant away, his eyes locked on the black iron cat.

This black iron cat is about the same size as a real cat and is very heavy. No need to ask, it must be solid.

Those eyes are just like those of a real cat. If Xu Lingjun hadn’t seen the blue-green light due to the angle yesterday, he would have thought they were made of glass.

"If this jade pendant is real, this cat should also be a treasure!"

Xu Lingjun looked over and over for a long time and muttered.

"Hey~"

Xu Lingjun suddenly remembered something, and immediately found a pair of scissors and stabbed Iron Cat's foot hard.

"As expected, haha, it is indeed so!"

After a few moments, Xu Lingjun laughed loudly.

Xu Lingjun remembered watching a TV series about Shen Wansan in his previous life.

It is said that a businessman saw someone selling an iron cat, and he found that the cat's eyes were precious stones.

So I spent twenty taels of silver to buy these gem eyes, but Iron Cat didn't buy them.

After Shen Wansan found out, he quickly went back and spent ten taels of silver to buy an iron cat.

When others laughed at him for buying a worthless blind cat, Shen Wansan slapped the iron cat hard on the body several times.

Only then did everyone realize that the iron cat was just covered with a layer of iron on the outside, but actually had gold inside, which meant that the cat was actually made of gold.

This is a way for rich people to hide their money, and it can be regarded as a wealth left to future generations.

Unexpectedly, Xu Lingjun encountered this. He actually spent 70 yuan to buy a pair of ancient jades and a golden cat the size of a real cat.
