Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous

At this moment, Yang Ming suddenly thought of the portable space on his body. He originally planned to sell the materials in the space on the black market, but after thinking carefully, frequent transactions on the black market would inevitably attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to use Xu Huizhen’s tavern to quietly sell some of the supplies.

After all, there are many delicious ingredients such as pork head, tripe, and crispy dried fish among the side dishes.

However, when Yang Ming quickly "prepared" the ingredients and demonstrated his cooking skills in front of Xu Huizhen, it gave her a big surprise.

"Xiao Ming, you are good at cooking?" Xu Huizhen asked in surprise.

"Yes," Yang Ming nodded, "My mother died early, and my father was busy at the steel mill, so I was responsible for most of the three meals a day. There was an older brother in the neighborhood who was good at cooking, and I also asked him for some cooking techniques."

Yang Ming explained casually.

These words made Xu Huizhen look at Yang Ming with a new eye, and she was even happier. After a busy period, Yang Ming finally served a few delicious side dishes.

There are crispy and delicious peanuts, delicious cold pork head, tender hand-shredded chicken, refreshing five-spice lotus root slices, and a plate of tempting garlic pork.

Looking at the delicacies in front of her, Xu Huizhen felt ashamed of herself, but also admired Yang Ming. She asked curiously, "Xiao Ming, do you call these dishes appetizers?"

"That's right," Yang Ming nodded, "In the future, the side dishes in the tavern can be divided into several types. For example, pickles and braised dried tofu will be given away for every purchase of two taels of wine. As for other dishes, we can set a reasonable price, and I believe there will be guests willing to try them."

“As for the issue of ingredients and costs, please make a list for me later. If they are out of stock, let Lao Cai contact me. I have a friend who can provide us with these ingredients at cost price.” Yang Ming explained.

of course can.

In the corner of the tavern, Yang Ming's attempt was actually just the beginning.

After all, the daily flow of customers here is limited, so how much meat can be consumed?

But if this method really works, he can use He Daqing or contact Lou Bancheng directly to provide a steady supply of meat to the steel mill.

This way of trading is undoubtedly more secure and long-term than buying and selling in the hidden black market.

"Xiao Ming."

Yang Ming, who was sitting next to him, caught Xu Huizhen's attention. She seemed to understand something, then stood up, walked to the side, and took out a jar of newly brewed white wine.

"How can we have good food without good wine?" She said softly, "The tavern will be officially opened tomorrow. You have helped me so much, and I also want to find an opportunity to thank you properly."

Her words were full of sincerity and gratitude. Yang Ming had provided great help, whether it was the heroic act of saving the beauty or the instructions left by Mr. Guan after his death.

If he hadn't used his connections to find someone from the Military Control Commission, it would have been difficult for Xu Huizhen to inherit the tavern legitimately.

What's more, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the tavern, Yang Ming also made many valuable suggestions.

Thinking of this, Xu Huizhen showed a gentle smile on her face. She took the initiative to fill the glasses for both of them, raised her glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

After a few drinks, Xu Huizhen's already charming face was flushed with a faint pink, making her look even more charming.

Yang Ming was also attracted by the beautiful scenery, and his eyes unconsciously fell on her.

When a woman takes the initiative to drink alone with a man, the deep meaning behind it is self-evident.

Although Xu Huizhen did not express her feelings directly, her actions were enough to explain everything.

After a few drinks, Xu Huizhen seemed a little drunk. She leaned lightly on Yang Ming's shoulder and looked at him with dazed eyes.

She gently wrapped her arms around Yang Ming's neck, her red lips slightly parted, as if she had something to say.

"Huizhen, you seem a little drunk. Let me help you to rest." Yang Ming said softly.

He helped Xu Huizhen to the room in the backyard and gently placed her on the bed. However, just as he was about to get up and leave, Xu Huizhen grabbed his hand.

"Xiao Ming, don't go..." Her voice was low and full of tenderness, which made Yang Ming unable to resist. So, the following things happened naturally.

Yang Ming never expected that in this special era, he would develop deep emotional entanglements with two women with very different personalities but both extremely outstanding.

Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, two women from Zhengyang Sect, now have a relationship with him that goes beyond friendship. However, the customs and morals of this era are extremely strict, and he must make a choice.

He glanced to his side and saw Xu Huizhen frowning slightly, as if she had fallen asleep.

Yang Ming rubbed his forehead and began to think carefully about how to properly deal with this problem.

"Xiao Ming..." Xu Huizhen's gentle call came to her ears. She slowly opened her eyes and stretched out her hands to gently hug Yang Ming.

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Huizhen asked gently.

Yang Ming hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to confess everything to Xu Huizhen. He knew that hiding things would only make things more complicated.

What's more, Chen Xueru's silk shop and Xu Huizhen's tavern are both on Qianmen Street. The two often meet each other, and sooner or later they will notice the subtle relationship between each other.

"Actually, I already knew about you and Xueru." Xu Huizhen gently brushed the hair beside her ear and smiled gently, "I don't blame you, I understand your feelings. I just want to know, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Looking at Xu Huizhen's slightly sad eyes, Yang Ming felt guilty. He knew that he had not handled the matter properly and had put Xu Huizhen under too much pressure.

"Huizhen, I really like you." Yang Ming said solemnly, "At the same time, I also have a good impression of Xueru. I know it's unfair to you, but I really don't want to lose either of you."

When Xu Huizhen heard this, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

She was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Xiao Ming, I have an idea too. Since the household registration has not started yet, we can find a way to get a marriage certificate with a fake identity. In this way, we can have a legal husband and wife status and have a child legitimately."

When Yang Ming heard this proposal, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect Xu Huizhen to come up with such a solution to the problem. But after thinking about it carefully, this is indeed a feasible solution.

"Will this work?" Yang Ming asked worriedly.

"As long as we do it properly, there shouldn't be any problems." Xu Huizhen said with a smile, "After all, the household registration system in this era is not strict, and the marriage certificate is just a formality. As long as we are careful, no one should notice."

Yang Ming heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He knew that although this plan was a bit risky, it seemed to be the best solution at the moment.

Moreover, both parties are sincere.

It is not difficult to achieve a situation where multiple partners can live together.

As Mr. Luo said, as long as I did not formally obtain a marriage certificate, my relationships with the eight women were merely a moral issue and did not cross the legal red line.
