Chapter 32 The Hu family then told the story that the yard could not be occupied and the fields had been taken back.
Hu Ajing scolded Yan Funing even more.
Yan Haitang asked again: "How is she fed and clothed?"
Hu Ajing hummed: "What can I eat? I dig wild vegetables in the mountains, but what wild vegetables are there now? All she wears are those clothes. She wears silk and satin to show off in the village all day long, as if others don't know that she is originally Miss Jiao. .”
After hearing this, Yan Haitang covered his lips and smiled softly.
As long as Yan Funing lives in embarrassment, she is filled with joy.
Then she thought of Fu Ciyi, but she couldn't ask about it in front of Fu Minghe's grandfather and father.
But I was thinking about it again, so I took Hu Ajing's hand and said, "We can chat quite well. Let's go for a walk in the yard and talk a little bit."
Hu Ajing nodded. It would be a great thing to be able to form a sisterly relationship with the county prime minister's daughter-in-law.
Yan Haitang spoke to his family and pulled Hu Ajing out of the hall.
When I went to the garden, I chose a path less traveled by.
After chatting nonstop about other things, Yan Haitang finally asked in a low voice: "Fu Wanniang has two sons, how is the older one doing now?"
Thinking of that noble young man, Hu Ajing pursed her lips and said, "He is good-looking, but he has a bad temper."
"Oh, be specific."
"I can knock down a fence with one kick."
"Then what is his relationship with the adopted daughter of the Yan family?"
"I didn't think they were close. They were far apart when they walked down the aisle. Last time I was riding in a bullock cart with Mei Xiang from the village. The adopted daughter of the Yan family squeezed Mei Xiang, but she didn't move into the man's arms."
Hearing this, Yan Haitang's lips twitched into a smile.
A certain woman was arrogant and had already broken off her engagement. It was difficult for her to live with Fu Ciyi.
Now I am reduced to riding a bullock cart, which is really pitiful.
The two chatted for a while, and Yan Haitang said: "If anything embarrassing happens to their family in the future, you can tell me."
"Okay." Hu Ajing said bitterly, "It's just that my family now wants to drive Fu Wanniang's family out, so that they can get their fields and yards. This is what my grandparents and parents want."
Yan Haitang asked casually: "What do you mean?"
"I want to drive out the adopted daughter of the Yan family, and make Fu Wanniang's eldest son my son-in-law, so that I can get his family's fields and yards. I will have to raise Fu Wanniang, a blind mother-in-law, and a lame girl, stupid and foolish My brother-in-law is so depressing. I dare not tell my grandparents and parents about this idea." Hu Ajing held Yan Haitang's arm affectionately, "When I first met my cousin, I felt that she was a good person. I just dare to tell you."
Yan Haitang's face turned pale, and he immediately said to the maid: "Tell the old lady, master and eldest son to see you off!"
After saying that, he took out his arm from the crook of Hu Ajing's hand, flicked his sleeve and walked away.
It's really annoying that a country girl dares to covet Fu Ciyi.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Yan Haitang returned to his room and threw a lot of things. - Hearing from the maid that the eldest mistress asked to see off the guests, and the fact that the Hu family came empty-handed this time, the second old man also wanted to see the guests off as soon as possible.
He immediately said: "Today is the Lantern Festival. There is a long distance between the city and the countryside. You'd better go back as soon as possible."
It means that they will not be left to have dinner.
The Hu family looked at each other, but before they could say anything, the housekeeper had already raised his hand to invite them.
"Everyone, please."
After exiting the gate of Fu Mansion and hearing the door slam shut, the Hu family sighed.
Qian whispered: "What's going on? You're obviously being polite?"
Hu Xingwang pressed his stomach, which was aching from hunger: "Why are you so polite? You didn't even get any snacks today, yet you asked us to go back early."
Hu Dahai disagreed: "I want to celebrate the Lantern Festival myself, but I'm right. We came at the wrong time."
Hu Ajing was so anxious that she stamped her feet: "I want to go to the hut."
After being reminded like this, the whole family became anxious.
I didn't have lunch or snacks. I drank too much tea and I was feeling suffocated.
If you go to Fu's house for convenience, you will definitely be disliked by others, so the family has no choice but to look for restaurants, teahouses and the like that can provide convenience. - Almost all the impurities in the sesame seeds were picked out, so Yan Funing took them to the stove and stir-fried them in an iron pot.
Fry until the aroma wafts out, then serve.
Without a stone mortar, she used a rolling pin and a ends of the rolling pin should be rounded, which is also suitable for pounding sesame seeds.
Hearing the noise, Fu Beimo came to help.
After all, it was because his hands were stronger and the sesame seeds he pounded out were thinner.
After the sesame seeds were pounded, Yan Funing added sugar to them and stirred them evenly.
Fu Beimo came closer and smelled it: "It smells so good."
Yan Funing smiled, scooped some out into a small bowl, and handed it to him.
"You can eat it now, just eat and see."
Fu Beimo was not polite, took a spoon and put it into his mouth, his eyes lit up he happily held the bowl and left the kitchen.
He went to the main room first and said, "Mom, my sister-in-law gave me something to eat. It's delicious."
He said that he fed his mother very filially.
Wan Niang nodded with a smile.
Fu Nanyao came closer, and Fu Beimo ran away holding the bowl.
He came to his brother and said, "Brother, the food my sister-in-law gave me is very sweet."
Fu Ciyi remained silent.
Seeing that he couldn't show off, Fu Beimo took another big bite, then walked away with his head held high.
Fu Ciyi shook his head, glanced sideways and saw the plate of peanuts and melon seeds, then reached out and picked up a peanut, peeled it and ate it.
Yan Funing kneaded the glutinous rice dough alone. When the dough was formed, she took it to the main room, along with the prepared sugar and sesame seeds.
"Mom, let's make glutinous rice balls together and have a happy reunion."
Wan Niang nodded and shouted: "Ci Yi, come here quickly."
The whole family washed their hands, gathered around the table, and made glutinous rice balls.
Yan Funing first rolled the dough into thin strips and pinched out small irregular spread the dough thinly, scoop a small spoonful of sugar and sesame seeds into it, wrap it up and roll it into a ball.
She demonstrated once, and Fu Ciyi and Fu Nanyao got started quickly.
Fu Beimo didn't wrap up well at first, so he moved slower.
Wan Niang couldn't see it, so she was responsible for spreading the flour balls. When her youngest son rolled out a glutinous rice ball, she would roll it into a ball again.
The whole family worked together and the glutinous rice balls were rolled out quickly.
Yan Funing sprinkled some glutinous rice flour into the basin, put the formed glutinous rice balls in and rolled them.
Fu Beimo was surprised: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
"Give it a roll and it will look round again." Yan Funing smiled playfully, "And it will not stick together when cooked."
Wan Niang praised: "How smart!"
A piece of hair fell down from her forehead, and Yan Funing wiped it with the back of her hand.
Because I grabbed glutinous rice flour and wiped it with it, the powder stuck to my forehead.
Fu Beimo's eyes were very bright and he saw it.
"Brother, wipe my sister-in-law's forehead quickly."
Fu Ciyi pretended not to hear and walked out of the main room with one hand behind his back.
Yan Funing would never dare to ask someone to wipe her forehead, so she said to Wan Niang: "Mom, it's getting late, I'm going to cook glutinous rice balls."
Wan Niang: "Okay, then I'll wait and eat."
Yan Funing carried the basin of glutinous rice balls to the kitchen. As soon as she arrived at the door, Fu Ciyi came out after washing her hands.
The two of you let me go, and I let you go. They were stunned at the door for a while.
