Chapter 33: Brightness in the Heart Fu Beimo wanted to help Yan Funing light the fire, but seeing how humble his brother and sister-in-law were, he hurried over.
If they continue like this, the sister-in-law's forehead will hit her brother's chin.
"Brother, if you go inside, won't sister-in-law go in?"
So stupid, how can you be stupider than him?
He is still clever.
Otherwise, my sister-in-law would be in pain and would cry.
Fu Ciyi paused and turned sideways. Yan Funing took the opportunity to enter the kitchen.
Fu Ciyi glanced at his younger brother and went back to his room.
Fu Beimo felt that his brother's eyes were a little cold, so he wrinkled his nose at his back, and immediately followed Yan Funing to the stove.
"Sister-in-law, I'll light the fire."
"Okay."
Yan Funing washed the pot in which the sesame seeds were fried, and then added water.
Fu Beimo started to light a fire and burn firewood.
The glutinous rice balls were quickly cooked and taken out of the pot. Yan Funing scooped them up and brought them to the main room, while Fu Beimo called his brother to join them.
Everyone can have a full bowl, and the glutinous rice flour is very good at fighting hunger, so everyone's stomach is full.
"The glutinous rice balls are so fragrant and the soup is delicious." Wan Niang drank up the soup, "After eating Funing's food, I don't want to eat anything else."
Even Fu Nanyao said: "It's quite fragrant."
Yan Funing smiled and said: "It's just that there is no lard at home. If there is, it will be more fragrant when wrapped with sesame seeds."
Several people chatted for a while.
Fu Beimo suddenly said: "Mom, there are many women going into the city today to watch the lantern festival. The Hu family's daughters also want to go into the city and asked the driver Li to drive us out of the car, but we won't get off."
"Ah, what's going on?"
Wan Niang knew that her younger son could not explain clearly, so she asked Yan Funing.
Yan Funing gave a brief summary, and then said: "The Hu family seems to be very anxious. They went to Fu's Mansion on the [-]th of the first lunar month, and they may also go to Fu's Mansion today."
Fu Nanyao asked worriedly: "Could we ask the second roommate to come and punish us?"
But Fu Ciyi was very calm: "We are doing the right thing, so there is no need to worry."
The Hu family and the people in the second room are like a nest of snakes and rats, and they are colluding 's not surprising that these two families can get along together.
"We don't want anything bad to happen," Wan Niang said, "Today is the Lantern Festival, and it's a happy time for the whole family to be together."
I recall that I was still hungry when I arrived here on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Today, she feels very hopeful.
Then he smiled and said to his children and daughter-in-law: "Look at the moon with your eyes bright."
Yan Funing nodded: "The bright moon fills the sky, and my heart is bright."
So what if the second bedroom has a county magistrate?
With justice in your heart, justice in the world, and people in the world, your days will definitely get better and better in the future!
Fu Nanyao looked at her in surprise. When she wasn't swearing, her words were quite nice.
Wan Niang clapped her hands: "Well said, Ciyi, please give me the right sentence."
Fu Ciyi said quietly: "I will go back to my room and copy some books."
A certain woman was illiterate and had a habit of being arty, so he didn't want to confront her.
Then he left a sentence and returned to the room.
Wan Niang shook her head and said to Yan Funing: "Funing, don't pay attention to him, he is just like that." - At this moment, in the Fu Mansion, the food has been placed in the dining second old man and Fu Zhengqing were still in the study, chatting for a long time.
The maid went to call for dinner, but the father and son ignored him and instead ordered their servants to invite Fu Minghe to the study.
As soon as Fu Minghe entered the study, Fu Zhengqing ordered someone to close the door.
"Grandfather, father, you two are looking for me for something important?" Fu Minghe asked.
The second old man raised his hand and asked him to sit down: "You also saw today that the Hu family and Wan Niang's family are not dealing with each other."
Fu Minghe said: "It will be very difficult for my second brother to live in the country."
Funing can't bear the hardship, and I don't know what's wrong with her? Fu Zhengqing could see his son's thoughts at a glance, how could he really care about Fu Ciyi? Then he said directly: "I know you like Yan Funing's face. What can the adopted daughter of the Yan family do? You are going to take the imperial examination. In the past, money was rarely used to finance your official career. Only a daughter of the Yan family can help you."
The second old man said in a deep voice: "Minghe, your father has been an official for so many years, and what he said is correct."
Fu Minghe sat down aside and lowered his head.
Fu Zhengqing said again: "Do you think our family background needs to marry the Hu family? Oh, it's just that the Hu family has some use."
"What's the use of the Hu family?" Fu Minghe raised his head.
Fu Zhengqing said patiently: "You know the situation of Wan Niang's family very well. Now add the spoiled Yan Funing to the family, and it will be like a chicken and a dog, and their life will be like a chicken feather."
"The only person in charge in their family is Fu Ciyi."
"The Hu family is in the village, so they can cause trouble for everything. In this case, Fu Ciyi will handle everything. Will he still have time to prepare for the imperial examination?"
Hearing this, Fu Minghe looked at his sanctimonious father and hypocritical grandfather and understood instantly.
On the day of the wedding, the wrong bride was chosen. The elders not only tried to bring him and Yan Haitang together, but also obtained his great-uncle's family business...
I even want Fu Ciyi to never have the chance to go to high school.
As a result, Yan Funing, who was originally his wife, could only become his sister-in-law.
Seeing his silence, Fu Zhengqing thought he had been persuaded, and then said: "Son, you work hard. Fu Ciyi now has no time to study, and no money to ask his master for teaching. It is time for you to catch up with him."
The second old man said lovingly: "My dear grandson, my grandfather has kept all Fu Ciyi's books for you. Go and read them tomorrow. He took a lot of notes. Such books are hard to buy on the market."
I have to admit that Fu Ciyi's knowledge is profound. The books he has read and left comments on are especially valuable.
When it comes to knowledge, the inferiority complex in Fu Minghe's heart that has been compared to Fu Ciyi for many years surges up.
"I will work hard and not let my grandfather and father down!"
The wife who was supposed to be his became Fu Ciyi's. He had often been compared with him since he was a child. When the two dissatisfactions were combined, he could understand the good intentions of his grandfather and father.
When he looked at their faces now, he couldn't find any trace of sanctimony or hypocrisy.
Fu Zhengqing nodded happily: "Fu Ciyi will probably not be able to participate in this year's provincial examination. Son, this is the time for you to become famous."
Regardless of his son's knowledge, when he was a child student, Fu Ciyi came first, but his son ranked second.
Later, as a candidate, his son was overpowered by Fu Ciyi.
This year's provincial examination, they can't lose again! The solution must be Fu Minghe! - The moon is full and the night is dust-free.
Fu Beimo came to the west wing.
"Brother, many women are going to the county town today to enjoy the lanterns. The driver said that young women go there to find their husband. I think my sister-in-law has a brother, so she said she doesn't like to go. But the lanterns are so beautiful, she must like them , Brother, let’s make a lantern for my sister-in-law.”
Fu Ciyi was surprised.
Since my brother suffered a head injury, he has hardly spoken so many words in one breath.
What is said at this moment is very clear.
Afraid that his brother would disagree, Fu Beimo worriedly said: "I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be deceived when she goes to see the lanterns. Let me make a lantern for my sister-in-law!"
Fu Ciyi said quietly: "You also know our current situation. Without materials, we can't do it."
