The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

After giving Qin Huairu a simple lesson, Cao Wei couldn't help but reflect on his own actions.

"Am I being too kind?"

The next day, when Cao Wei was washing up, he saw Qin Huairu's extremely resentful eyes across from him.

They were even talking in a low voice.

"Cao Wei, you're playing games..."

This time, before Qin Huairu could finish speaking, Jia Zhangshi's harsh, loud voice rang out.

"Qin Huairu! You slut, what are you doing, flirting with men first thing in the morning? Will you die without a man? Can't you live without him for a second? Don't embarrass the Jia family, get back here right now!"

A booming voice, accompanied by a harsh expression, appeared behind Qin Huairu the moment he appeared.

Qin Huairu was immediately frightened and felt extremely wronged, so she quickly began to explain.

"Mom, I was just saying hello to the neighbor as usual."

"Ha, I think your eyes are practically popping out of that little...other guy! Get your ass back here right now!"

Just as Jia Zhangshi was about to blurt out "you little beast," she met Cao Wei's slightly cold gaze and, remembering her experience of being beaten, quickly changed her words.

Qin Huairu could only return home with a heart full of grievances.

While cooking, Jia Zhangshi would pinch her arm from time to time.

"You vixen, I advise you not to do anything to disgrace our Jia family, or I'll drown you in a pig cage and throw you back to your Qin Family Village!"

Those sinister words were paired with a ferocious face.

At this moment, Qin Huairu felt as if her mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi, was a blue-faced demon from hell. She couldn't understand why the other party would be so hostile towards her, since she hadn't actually hit her.

Jia Zhangshi's malice towards Qin Huairu was certainly not limited to what happened last night. More importantly, she realized she had been beaten and deeply believed in the "manifestation of Old Jia."

"Old Jia" said that Qin Huairu is a sly fox, so he must keep a closer eye on her. Once he discovers that she is plotting something, he must quickly divorce her.

We can't tarnish the reputation of the Jia family, a prestigious and powerful clan.

Qin Huairu, filled with grievances, finished cooking and looked at Jia Dongxu after he woke up, and couldn't help but speak with aggrieved feelings.

"Dongxu, look at her, that vixen is seducing people early in the morning, and she's seducing that little bastard across the street."

Still feeling a bit sleepy, Jia Dongxu's face immediately darkened when he heard that Qin Huairu had actually seduced Cao Wei across from him.

"Huai Ru, what happened?"

"I didn't, Dongxu, I swear, I didn't even finish a single sentence. I was just washing up. Otherwise, may I be struck by lightning and may my whole family die a horrible death..."

Before Qin Huairu could finish speaking, Jia Zhangshi interrupted her.

"Alright, Dongxu, take a look. This vixen is trying to drag us down with her. She's definitely up to no good. Let's hurry up and dump this slutty vixen."

These seemingly absurd words instantly dispelled Jia Dongxu's suspicions about Qin Huairu.

However, I still didn't forget to give a word of advice.

"Huai Ru, the person opposite us is our Jia family's mortal enemy. If you dare to have an affair with him, hmph..."

"Of course not."

After Qin Huairu made another vow, the three of them finally calmed down and started eating at the table.

However, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but feel a little confused after taking a bite of the two-ingredient steamed bun.

"Wait a minute, Mom, that little rascal usually gets up later than me, why is he up so early today?"

"Maybe it was this slut who seduced that vixen yesterday that made her come back late."

After taking a big bite of the steamed bun and swallowing it, Jia Zhangshi spoke indistinctly.

These words were not taken to heart by Jia Dongxu for the time being.

On the other hand, Cao Wei's unusually early rise also drew puzzled looks from his other beastly neighbors.

Of course, Cao Wei wouldn't even mind sleeping until noon. The reason he gets up early is quite simple.

Today he has something to prepare for, and that thing is the graduation banquet.

Indeed, before He Daqing left, he had instructed Zhang He to look after Cao Wei. From then on, Zhang He considered Cao Wei his second apprentice.

Therefore, for the graduation banquet, we need to not only get some good ingredients, but also spend a day preparing in advance.

However, Cao Wei also understood that Zhang He was not his formal master, and he had already taken good care of him. As for the materials, he should try his best to prepare them himself and not trouble Zhang He, since Zhang He also had to go to work today.

Today, Cao Wei has a day off and plans to take a trip to the black market.

Guided by their memories, they arrived at the black market. Upon reaching the entrance, the two of them glanced at Cao Wei.

He spoke somewhat awkwardly.

"Buying or selling?"

"purchase."

"One thousand yuan."

Cao Wei didn't mince words and simply took out a thousand yuan and handed it to the other party.

This was my first time visiting the black market, but after a quick glance...

He further discovered that the black market at this time was more like the rural fairs he used to visit when he was a child.

Everyone just puts their things out on their stall.

Cao Wei also experienced it firsthand. Although the stalls looked quite old, the items displayed on each stall were all strange and unusual.

He even saw several things that looked like antiques.

I considered taking action, but ultimately chose to give up.

The reason is simple: although he has a spiritual eye, he cannot identify antiques by using X-ray vision alone.

You also need to have experience in this area.

After giving up on the idea of ​​finding a bargain in antiques, Cao Wei started looking around with his eyes open.

Soon, his gaze settled on a stall belonging to someone dressed like a hunter, on which was displayed something that looked somewhat like a deer leg.

Cao Wei couldn't help but squat down and examine it carefully. He then looked at it again through his spiritual eyes and found that the flesh inside was red. It looked like it had been dead for at most a day or two, so the quality was not bad. It was good enough to be used as an ingredient for his graduation banquet tomorrow.

Cao Wei looked at the middle-aged man in his thirties or forties opposite him and couldn't help but ask.

"The item looks good, how much?"

"Since you know your stuff, I'll take it or leave it at 200,000."

The middle-aged hunter glanced at Cao Wei's somewhat youthful face, then spoke rather stiffly.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Wei got up and prepared to leave.

Just kidding. Although deer leg is indeed considered precious, the main problem is that the cooking method is complicated, not to mention the crucial point...

It would only be valuable if it were sold to a large restaurant, but the other party was unwilling to sell it to a large restaurant.

If you either have no connections or have been pressured to accept a lower price, how is it any different from robbery if someone asks you for 200,000 under these circumstances?

"Um, buddy, wait a minute..."
