"That's great, but I don't want us to become alienated and have disagreements because we are not related, which will affect our relationship as husband and wife." He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's okay for you to think whatever you want. As long as you and the children have enough food and clothing, I will be at ease."

Wang Qian smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry, husband. I support all your decisions. As long as we can ensure the food and clothing needs of us and our children, that's all."

He Yuzhu burst into laughter upon hearing this, and half-jokingly said, "Don't worry, my wife. Even if I really starve to death, I won't let you and the children go hungry. However, it's too early to talk about this now. It's better to have the child soon, hehehe."

---

In the evening at the He family's house.

After dinner, I thought He Yushui would be back today, but I didn't see her until I finished digesting the food. I looked at my watch and it was already past eight o'clock. He Yuzhu remembered that there was another transaction with Ma San tonight, so he smiled and said to his wife, "Honey, I'm going out to do something and will be back later."

Wang Qian nodded, got up and walked to the bedside table, pulled out a flashlight to check the brightness, but found that the light was a little dim. Then she took out a pair of new No. 0 batteries to replace them, confirmed the brightness, and then handed the flashlight to He Yuzhu, gently admonishing: "Be careful on the road."

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, and was very touched that Wang Qian did not ask him where he was going or what he was doing. He simply replied, "I know."

After taking the flashlight, He Yuzhu hugged her gently, pushed the bicycle in the yard and left home.

As soon as He Yuzhu stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, he quickly got on his bicycle and rushed towards Pigeon City at full speed.

A moment later, he was standing in front of the Pigeon Market, and saw Ma San and two men smoking and chatting there. The thugs next to him immediately informed him, "Brother, that man is here."

Ma San nodded, stepped on his cigarette butt, and then stood up and walked over. "I thought you couldn't come today." Ma San greeted with a smile.

He Yuzhu slowed down his bicycle and said with a smile, "No way. If you want to survive in the underworld, you have to keep your word. Third brother, take the people with you, and let's go now."

"Okay." Ma San waved his hand, and then seven people came running over pushing a flatbed cart.

He Yuzhu glanced at it casually without paying much attention. He pushed his bicycle to clear the way, and soon, he led Ma San and others into the woods where they had agreed to meet.

He Yuzhu stopped the car and told Ma San: "You guys wait here, I'll go check if everyone has arrived."

"Okay, I'll do everything you say." Ma San agreed loudly.

He was familiar with the previous transaction and saw that He Yuzhu didn't want them to have any contact with other people in the forest. After understanding, he nodded and walked straight into the dense forest with a flashlight.

He had already prepared the goods that Ma San needed while resting at home. In a moment, he had piles of bags arranged in an orderly manner in the open space. 4000 catties of white flour, 2000 catties of coarse cornmeal, 2000 catties of pork, and 3709 catties of watermelon - this was the result of a discussion with Ma San in the morning. He also reserved a few catties more than the original amount.

He stayed in the dense forest for about 10 minutes before he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it with a match, exhaled deeply, and then left.

"The goods have been delivered, but the people have hidden themselves. Let's go in and inspect them." He Yuzhu said without hesitation.

"Okay, follow me." After that, they followed the brother into the forest and worked together to move things.

Arriving at the trading location, looking at the piles of sacks and the pork sticking out, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Brother San, come and inspect the goods. We'll weigh them right after we've checked them. These are 40 bags of flour, and the 20 bags next to them are cornmeal. The watermelons are all in the bags over there."

Before Ma San could say anything, his brother beside him was eager to open the bag and check it. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "A man who is happy will not do anything wrong. Wait a moment."

"No problem." Ma San answered frankly. He knew that He Yuzhu was never vague.

Soon, all the items were checked one by one, and there were 15 catties of extra flour, 8 catties of cornmeal, 5 catties of pork, and 25 catties of extra watermelon. The total was: 4015 catties of flour, 2008 catties of coarse rice and flour, 2005 catties of pork, and 3725 catties of watermelon.

"A large yellow croaker. I'll compensate you for the extra weight." Ma San took a large yellow croaker from his back and gave it to He Yuzhu without any delay.

"Forget the money. I've already let you down for a large yellow croaker." He Yuzhu took the fish, checked it carefully, and confirmed that there was nothing unusual. He nodded again and said, "I think Brother Ma San might have a small scale with him."

"Of course I brought it. It's something I use for eating." Ma San understood what he meant and took out a very small scale from the package.

After weighing, He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction. Although he could not accurately measure the weight of 312.5 grams, the fact that it was more than six taels seemed to be fine.

"Don't worry, brother. I've been out there for more than ten years and I never play tricks on the scale. If anything goes wrong, come to me and I'll compensate you double the amount." Ma San promised with a smile.

Feeling his confidence, He Yuzhu nodded slightly and smiled, "I understand. These fish and things are not mine. Even if something goes wrong, I have the ability to compensate you. I'm just afraid of causing trouble to you, Brother Ma San."

Ma San understood his implication and replied with a smile: "Indeed, let's start loading the goods."

"You ask your brothers to do it. I have an idea that I want to discuss with you."

"Okay, let's move aside and talk."

The two walked out of the forest, and at this time they only heard He Yuzhu whispered: "If there is another transaction, if it is convenient, brother can help me collect some things, famous wine, dollars or other valuable things, my boss is quite interested.

The same goes for big yellow croaker or small yellow croaker. As long as you don’t think you’re losing money at 17 yuan per gram, we can trade.”

Ma San nodded and said, "These things are fine. I have some in stock, but not much. If you need a large quantity, come to me another day and I can take you to meet someone somewhere. If we can make a deal, he can satisfy you with whatever you need."

He Yuzhu is quite confident about these things. Although Sijiu City is not small, it is home to many hidden talents and there are many powerful people.

"Let's talk about it next time." He Yuzhu agreed with a smile.

During the conversation, Ma San's men had already moved all the things onto the flatbed truck.

"Brother Ma, it's all done." A man quietly approached Ma San and reported.

Hearing this, Ma San clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "We'll take our leave now. See you later."

"Okay, I'll go to the woods and give them some instructions, and in the meantime I'll give these to them to take back."

After saying this, without waiting for Ma and the other two to walk away, He Yuzhu walked towards the woods alone and stayed for about ten minutes before leaving.

He pushed his bicycle on the roadside and left the transaction site directly.

Along the way, He Yuzhu took many detours and only drove towards Nantongluo Lane after confirming that no one was following him.

About twenty minutes later, He Yuzhu arrived at the courtyard.

He had just stepped into the atrium when he heard Wang Qian's panicked voice coming from inside. Seeing this, He Yuzhu hurriedly smiled and said, "Let's go home and talk first."

After returning to the courtyard, He Yuzhu first put the bicycle away, and then sat down by the fire with Wang Qian.

"I'm sorry to have made you worry, dear." He Yuzhu said in a gentle tone as he took out the big yellow croaker from the space bag and placed it next to the brazier.

"What is this?" Wang Qian's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw the real object.

She knew that the market value of this large yellow croaker was about 6,000 yuan, which was almost equal to her salary for ten years of hard work.

"This is the result of tonight's income." He Yuzhu said gently.

"Oh my God, can I make so much money in such a short time?" Wang Qian exclaimed in disbelief. Could something ** have happened?

Facing her expression, He Yuzhu gently held her hand and said softly: "In fact, I should have concealed a lot of things from you, but husband and wife are a community of shared destiny. After careful consideration, I think it is necessary for you to know.

I have a set of channels and a wide social network, so it is not difficult for me to make money.

Although you are a police officer and stick to your beliefs, we are now a family, and you will be my wife who will accompany me for the rest of my life. "

"My dear, you don't need to say more. I don't need all that. I just hope that you can come home safely and cook delicious food for me. I will be satisfied with you by my side every day." Wang Qian interrupted him and understood his implication.

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then he was relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, then I won't mention it again. I promise you on my reputation that I will never take the initiative to hurt others, nor will I do anything that harms anyone's interests."

"I understand your character. Even though our marriage was established in a hurry, I still trust my own judgment. Your attitude towards the Jia family today is enough to prove that you are considerate on the basis of kindness. Even though the money that Dad remitted was concealed, you did not bear a grudge. Instead, you chose to be tolerant and take responsibility for their later years. It's really amazing. I may not be able to do it." Wang Qian's eyes were full of love and admiration for him.

After hearing her praise, He Yuzhu shook his head gently, and then sighed: "If you receive a little kindness from others, you must repay it with a thousand gold coins, and never forget your roots. Even if the eldest uncle concealed the truth, his care over the past years has allowed me to survive. Their kindness should not be completely ignored because of a few differences. I have done my best to deal with the Jia family's problems, and I will not argue with them about right and wrong. If I can't afford to offend them, I will take a detour. This is the principle."

Wang Qian next to him smiled and nodded in agreement: "You are indeed a person who treats others well and knows how to repay kindness. Such a person is worth associating with. Having said that, you should pay special attention to your actions. Try to keep a low profile and avoid exposing yourself. I accidentally heard the director mention that after the New Year, the pigeon trading market in the city may be rectified, and there will be major actions from above. The situation may not be as simple as before."

Looking at her serious face, He Yuzhu nodded deeply and said seriously: "Don't worry, if the situation changes, I will stop at the right time and will not take risks as a joke."

"I believe you. By the way, I forgot to tell you that Yu Shui just came over in a hurry and said that Comrade Li Weiguo will be free on Tuesday to discuss something with you." Wang Qian added.
