The treasures they found were placed on the cart, covered with an old mat. After moving away from the crowd, Feng Qingxue stayed with the horse cart while Lu Jiang, wearing an old army coat to hide his uniform, made another round in the black market.
He spent ten yuan to buy his wife a jade bead necklace and two jade bracelets.
They were brightly colored and quite beautiful.
He didn't fancy anything else and figured his wife probably wouldn't either.
As expected, Feng Qingxue was delighted. However, Lu Jiang had overspent a bit. The last time Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng, the two brothers, went wandering in the city, they found jade jewelry of much better quality for only eight yuan, plus a jade snuff bottle.
However, even if her husband had only given her a blade of grass, it would have been like receiving immortal herbs.
After storing the jewelry, the couple quickly ate some cornbread before driving off to a state-owned restaurant to meet up with their family.
