Wan Niang agreed: "Beimo and Ali are both growing, so they should eat when they are hungry."
Fu Nanyao said: "Mom, where is my brother?"
"Your brother is strong enough. It's okay to be hungry for a while." Wan Niang raised her hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, "Let's eat."
"Mom, let's go get the food first."
Fu Beimo took Ali to the kitchen.
Wan Niang responded, smiled and said to Yan Funing: "Funing, you are Ci Yi's wife, you should know that his body is full of muscles, right?"
"Mother..." Yan Funing choked and looked at Fu Nanyao.
Fu Nanyao covered her lips and smiled: "Mom, my sister-in-law will be embarrassed."
Wan Niang laughed along with her: "Wei Niang means that Ci Yi is in good health and is hungry, so Funing doesn't have to worry."
Yan Funing: "Mom, I'm not worried."
Although it was Bei Mo who proposed to eat first, she agreed and then discussed it with her mother-in-law.
She doesn't worry if she wants to starve someone for a while.
Who asked him to preach to her! Not long after, Fu Beimo brought two bowls of rice, holding a pair of chopsticks at the bottom of the bowl in his right hand.
Ali held three bowls of rice in both hands. The middle bowl was held in front of him, squeezing it with his left and right wrists.
Yan Funing first took the bowl of rice in Ali's middle, then took out the chopsticks between Fu Beimo's hand and the bottom of the bowl, and divided the chopsticks into pairs.
Several people were seated.
Wan Niang reached out and touched Ali's arm: "It's like firewood, eat more."
In the blink of an eye, Ali's eyes turned red: "Well, Auntie, I'll eat more."
During the Chinese New Year, he stayed at his grandmother's house. Every time he picked up a dish with chopsticks, he would look at his grandmother, uncle and aunt's serving rice, I didn’t dare to serve too he eats a little slower, they will say he is too lazy to eat.
At that time, he didn't have enough to eat at all.
Now, his aunt told him to eat more.
There was a sudden lump in my throat.
At this time, Yan Funing took a mouthful of rice and said, "Mom, there is not much rice left in the rice vat. I want to ask the villagers to buy some rice. I can buy a hundred kilograms at a time, so that I can eat for a longer time."
As she spoke, she looked at Ali: "Don't eat less because of this. Rice in the grain and oil store costs ten cents per pound. Our family is not short of rice now."
Ali nodded heavily and took a big mouthful of rice.
Wan Niang said: "Just buy it in the village. The grain and oil store is in the town. It's always inconvenient to buy."
Fu Nanyao picked up some slices of bacon for Ali and put them in his bowl: "Don't just eat, eat meat to gain strength. When my sister-in-law goes to buy rice later, you have to carry the rice."
Ali said "hmm", separated several pieces of bacon stuck together with his chopsticks, and ate one piece.
The two young men devoured their food and finished it in a short time.
Fu Beimo stood up: "Let's go deliver food to my brother first. My sister-in-law will wait for us to come back and then buy rice."
"it is good." - When they arrived at the village school, the schoolchildren had already gone home to eat, while Fu Ciyi was hungry and copying in the room.
Fu Beimo put the food box on the table: "Brother, you're not hungry, are you?"
I still have the energy to write such beautiful words.
Fu Ciyi glanced at his brother lightly and remained silent.
Ali explained: "Master, my sister-in-law took us into the mountains to dig for medicinal materials in the morning. By meal time we were hungry. We ate first and then brought it to you. It was a little late."
Fu Ciyi said "hmm".
Fu Beimo also said: "Mom said that Ali and I are growing tall, so we have to eat when we are hungry. My sister-in-law also said that she is not worried about you being hungry."
Fu Ciyi's face was expressionless.
She's not worried about him being hungry...
Ali quickly explained: "Auntie said that my wife's body is full of muscles, so she told my sister-in-law not to worry, she will be fine after being hungry for a while." The two young men talked a lot, but Fu Ciyi didn't say a word.
Fu Beimo patted Ali on the shoulder: "Let's go back, my sister-in-law is still waiting for us."
"Yes, Master, let's go back then."
As soon as they left the room, the two walked back arm in arm.
Fu Ciyi then put down his writing and ate. - Thinking of helping their sister-in-law, the two young men did not dare to delay on the way.
Running and walking for a while, the journey that originally took two-quarters of an hour ended up back home in just a quarter of an hour.
Yan Funing waited for them to come back: "Follow me to the entrance of the village."
She put the silver into her purse.
"Village entrance? Are you going to Brother Li's house?" Fu Beimo asked.
"Beimo is so smart!" Yan Funing said with a smile, "Last time I took his ox cart to the county seat and he didn't charge for such a long journey. I want to go to his house to buy rice."
Wan Niang, who was sitting in the main room, said, "That's how it should be."
"Mom, let's go then."
Yan Funing spoke to her mother-in-law and took the two teenagers to the entrance of the village.
Wan Niang said to Fu Nanyao: "Your sister-in-law is very measured in her actions. You can tell a person's character from small things. She is really excellent!"
Fu Nanyao thought about the two-year appointment between her brother and sister-in-law, but she didn't dare to tell her mother, so she had to ask in a different way: "Mom, if my brother becomes a high-ranking official in high school, what do you think will happen to him and his sister-in-law?"
"What will happen?" Wan Niang asked, and immediately patted the back of her daughter's hand, "It is your brother's blessing to marry your sister-in-law!"
Fu Nanyao muttered in a low voice: "As long as my mother is here, my brother and sister-in-law will not be separated."
Blind people have good ears, and Wan Niang heard it.
"What did you say?"
Fu Nanyao was startled and hurriedly explained: "Mom, I said you are the backbone of our family. My brother and sister-in-law all listen to you."
Wan Niang sighed instead: "Your brother has always had his own opinions, how can I control him? Your sister-in-law, she is filial. I can also 'see' that she has no less opinions than your brother."
If two people with strong opinions can work together, their days will definitely become more prosperous as time goes by.
Fu Nanyao was puzzled: "Mom, why do you say that your sister-in-law is no less opinionated than your brother?"
"Your sister-in-law hardly cared about your temper before. Only a person with a strong heart can do this, without anger or resentment, and truly be calm."
If you treat your sister-in-law like this, you can imagine how difficult it is for Ci Yi to win into Funing's heart.
She hopes that Ciyi will be more outstanding and the young couple will have feelings for each other.
Then I thought about my eldest son's coldness, and wondered when this young couple would get married. At the entrance of the village at this moment.
Yan Funing took Fu Beimo and Ali into the Li family yard.
Mother Li was turning over dried vegetables. When she saw Yan Funing coming over, she asked with a smile, "Do you want to take the bullock cart?"
Yan Funing: "Aunt Li, I would like to ask if your family has any extra rice to sell?"
Li Xinheng, who was weaving baskets in the house, heard it and hurried out.
"Girl, most people in the village are not short of rice, and they also have rice." He said, "My mother and I are the only two people in our family, and we do have quite a lot of rice."
As long as they are not too lazy to eat, or they harvest their crops and then sell them, they will basically have food in reserve.
Yan Funing asked: "Brother Li, I want to buy a hundred kilograms of rice, is that okay?"
"Of course." Li Xinheng turned around and went into the house and carried a large bag of rice on his back. "This bag of rice is about [-] kilograms."
Yan Funing took out a tael of silver.
Li Xinheng pushed his hand: "Girl, this is too much."
"The market price is ten cents per catty, which is exactly one tael of silver based on one hundred catties." Seeing that he refused to accept it, Yan Funing turned around and gave the silver to Aunt Li, "Auntie, please keep it."
