Chapter 29 The full moon is auspicious Yan Funing smiled: "He is my brother."
The title of brother-in-law is far less affectionate than that of brother.
Shopkeeper Liu asked again: "Looking at the extraordinary clothes of the girl and her brother, they must be children of wealthy families. Why do they come here so often to sell mountain products?"
The young man who came back from last time was elegantly dressed and good-looking.
They either sell wild oyster mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, or pheasants.
Previously, he thought the girl was experiencing life, but now even her family members showed up.
It's really puzzling.
Fu Beimo interrupted: "Make money. If you don't make money, you will go hungry."
Shopkeeper Liu nodded. It turned out that the rich family was in trouble, and it was not easy.
The winter bamboo shoots were weighed immediately.
"This time it's nineteen pounds and six taels. Even if it's twenty pounds, it's a total of two taels of silver."
As he spoke, he took out the silver from his pocket.
"Thank you, shopkeeper!"
Yan Funing took the silver and put it into her purse.
Shopkeeper Liu said softly: "Girl, the Chinese New Year is almost over now, and we won't be able to sell winter bamboo shoots anymore."
"I know, thank you shopkeeper for reminding me!" Yan Funing picked up the empty basket, "I'll replace it with the mountain goods next to it."
Rich people are in poverty. They have experienced high places and then fell again. Most people cannot bear this hardship.
The girl in front of me was very motivated, which made shopkeeper Liu very happy, so he added: "When the weather eases, the spring bamboo shoots can also be sold."
Yan Funing smiled and nodded: "The full moon is auspicious. On the occasion of the Lantern Festival, I wish the shopkeeper a happy New Year's Eve!"
"Okay, okay!" Shopkeeper Liu laughed heartily, "The girl is so literary!"
He took a handful of fried peanuts from the shelf nearby. Feeling that it was inconvenient to hold, he went to the counter, folded a piece of brown paper, and put a lot of peanuts and melon seeds inside.
"I'll give you two siblings something to eat on the way."
Yan Funing thanked her and took it.
But Fu Beimo persisted in correcting him: "It's my sister-in-law and my brother."
He didn't know that he was actually Yan Funing's brother-in-law.
In his opinion, he is his elder brother's younger brother, that is, his sister-in-law's younger brother.
Anyway, you have to insist that your sister-in-law is your sister-in-law, not your sister.
"Okay, sister-in-law and brother."
Shopkeeper Liu realized that the young man in front of him was crazy, so he added a lot of peanuts to the paper bag.
After leaving the restaurant, Yan Funing gave the paper package to Fu Beimo.
"Are you hungry? Eat something first."
Fu Beimo shook his head: "Take it home and eat together."
"Alright."
Yan Funing smiled and nodded, and took him to the grain and oil store opposite. - The Hu family was extremely depressed.
The yard cannot be occupied, and the fields originally occupied are taken back, and there will be no major source of income in the future life.
What is even more depressing is that the crops they cut down overnight were actually their own half.
Ah Jing's arm was cut with a knife. Although there were clothes separating her, the flesh was still injured.
After thinking about it, I always feel that I have suffered a big loss.
The more they thought about it, the more angry they became. They decided to go into the county seat and talk to the county magistrate.
As long as the Fu boy doesn't file a lawsuit, Ah Jing's reputation will not be ruined.
The county magistrate can help the Hu family secretly.
So the family planned to ride Li's ox cart, and then transfer to a carriage in the town to enter the city.
Unexpectedly, when they reached the entrance of the village, there was no sign of the driver and the ox cart.
After suffering losses for the past few days, the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Hu Dahai raised his hand and said, "Let's walk to the town and then take the bus." - There were no walnut kernels in the store. The vendor selling walnut kernels had already closed down his stall, so there were simply sesame seeds in the store.
Yan Funing bought two pounds of glutinous rice flour and one pound of sesame seeds.
After paying the copper coins, we quickly left the grain and oil I specially prepared a lot of copper coins to buy ingredients for making glutinous rice balls.
Because it is estimated that a basket of winter bamboo shoots weighs twenty kilograms, the money earned is whole money, and there is no need to get broken silver.
I just didn’t expect that it wouldn’t reach this level today.
The restaurant owner is a kind-hearted person. This time, she didn’t need to tell her anything and just gave her twenty kilograms.
The uncle and sister-in-law walked quickly towards the driver Li.
They made an appointment when they came, and they moved faster so that the driver Li could take them back in time.
Because most of the young men and women from the village went to the city today, there were almost no people returning to the village from the town, and Li, the driver, had to go back to the village to pick up a group of people to come to the town.
When the uncle and sister-in-law sat on the bullock cart, the driver Li waved his whip.
Yan Funing opened the brown paper bag, grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds, and placed them together with ten copper plates on the carriage board beside driver Li.
Driver Li's eyes lit up and he couldn't believe it: "Give me something to eat?"
"Well, thank you for waiting for us."
Yan Funing smiled with crooked eyebrows.
Driver Li stuffed a peanut into his mouth, bit it open and ate the peanut inside.
"It's so fragrant!"
He stuffed ten coins into his arms and hummed a tune.
There were only three people on the ox cart, their uncle, sister-in-law and the driver Li, and the speed of the car was much faster this time.
Halfway through, he was suddenly blocked by someone.
It was windy and quite cold while driving.
Yan Funing huddled her hands in her sleeves and covered her face with both hands, not even looking at the scenery on the roadside.
Only then did she look up when the car stopped.
Fu Beimo pointed at the person blocking the car and shouted, "Sister-in-law, it was the Hu family who stopped me."
Yan Funing also saw that the five members of the Hu family were staring at them fiercely.
"Driver Li, tell them to get out of the car. We will rent your ox cart and go to town."
Hu Dahai stared angrily, his nostrils stretched.
Fu Beimo stood up and looked at them condescendingly: "Why, we haven't arrived home yet."
"You fool is so stupid." Hu Ajing laughed and shook her head, "You look like a dog, why are you so stupid?"
Yan Funing became angry. If Li, the driver, drove them off, they would naturally be able to go back.
But in front of her, someone was scolding Fu Beimo, and she couldn't bear it.
"Didn't your elders teach you to be polite? My brother didn't mess with you, so why are you so foul-mouthed?"
"You!" Hu Ajing said, "My parents and grandparents are here. You say that, aren't you afraid that we will beat you up?"
Yan Funing said: "I'm afraid, I'm extremely afraid, after all, you dare to cut my brother with a sickle."
Afraid that she would continue talking, Mrs. Fu said to the driver Li: "Tell them to get off quickly! There is not much way to the town from here. The five of us will give you fifty coppers and you can send us there."
Li, the driver, popped a melon seed into his mouth and spat out the shell.
"Although I don't have much money to drive a car, I have principles. I will listen to whoever gets on the car first."
After saying that, he waved his whip and the car started moving again.
In broad daylight, cars from nearby villages also passed by, but the Hu family did not dare to take action.
It seemed that all passers-by were looking at them, and the Hu family continued walking towards the town while cursing.
Yan Funing pulled Fu Beimo to sit down and said to Li, the driver, "Thank you just now!"
"No need to thank you." He waved his hand, "The Hu family is used to being overbearing and thinks everyone is easy to bully. That Hu Ajing took advantage of the fact that her family had a lot of money and picked out all the young men in the village."
Yan Funing: "Is there such a thing?"
Li Heng, the driver, said, "Can you? The Hu family wants to find a son-in-law."
Even he has been singled out. Even if he remains a bachelor for the rest of his life, he will still look down on that Hu Ajing.
