Chapter 37 His Needs
Yan Funing said: "Pork ribs are cheap, feel free to eat them if you want. I'll go to town to buy them tomorrow."
After a pause, she added: "The harvested crops in the fields need to be picked up and replanted when spring warms up. I'm thinking about buying some cloth clothes."
Fu Nanyao put down the soup bowl and pursed her lips: "Bring me some clothes."
You don’t have to go back to the river to wash your clothes and be criticized by others.
Wan Niang nodded: "Our whole family is wearing common clothes. After all, we are in the countryside, and the clothes we wore in the past are not suitable for the times. Funing, it will cost a lot of money to buy clothes for the whole family. You can pawn my jewelry." "
As he spoke, he took off the earrings from his earlobes.
Yan Funing stopped her: "Mom, my husband and I have made some money, enough to buy it."
Hearing the word husband again, Fu Ciyi frowned. - In the afternoon, Yan Funing tied the loop on her arm again for the convenience of working.
I took the backpack from the woodshed and passed the door of the west wing when I was stopped by someone.
"Where?"
Yan Funing stopped and said, "I'm going to get some mountain goods so that I can sell them in town tomorrow."
Fu Ciyi put down the pen, closed the book, stood up and left the room, and then walked out of the yard.
Yan Funing was startled.
She quickly caught up with him: "You don't want to go with me, do you?"
He didn't answer.
She asked again: "Do you want to thank me for doing your laundry?"
"I'm going to see if there are any pheasants and hares."
"Oh, then we will be good company."
Her words made Fu Ciyi pause.
Yan Funing asked him: "What did I say wrong?"
Fu Ciyi said quietly: "No."
In these two years, aren't they just keeping company?
Seeing that he finally spoke up, Yan Funing became less reserved and talked a lot along the way.
"Your calligraphy is really good. If you copy a book with such good calligraphy, the bookstore owner will have to pay a high price. But if you copy books like this, when will you be able to buy all the books for the imperial examination? You will miss the imperial examination in this way. What should I do to prepare for the exam?”
Fu Ciyi said with rare patience: "The books I copied are the books used for the imperial examination. If you copy them once, you can memorize them deeply."
Yan Funing took two quick steps and stood opposite him, smiling and praising: "You are really smart. You can make money and do your homework, so you can kill two birds with one stone."
Fu Ciyi did not accept her compliment and took a step to the side, passing her by.
Yan Funing caught up again: "Next time, buy some blank books. Every time you copy a book for the imperial examination, copy an extra copy, so that you have a complete set of books."
He said calmly: "There are too many books for the imperial examination. This is not the solution. You still have to buy those with a lot of words."
Yan Funing was thinking, it would cost money for him to prepare for the imperial examination, and it would cost money for her to make silver needle instruments...
You still have to make money and save money.
If she could make money with her medical skills and open a conscientious medical clinic, her life would be much easier.
After thinking about it like this, his pace slowed down a lot.
Seeing someone walking ahead, she ran after him and grabbed his sleeve.
"Fu Ciyi, can you teach me how to read? I learn quickly. I promise not to embarrass you!"
"What do you want to eat, I will make it for you."
"I'll wash your clothes for you."
"Whatever needs you have, I will definitely satisfy you if I can satisfy them!"
Fu Ciyi lowered her eyes and looked at the little hand holding his sleeve, as soon as she heard his need.
What needs does he have? The imperial examination was his own business. What could she, a woman, do to satisfy him? Suddenly thinking of something, Jun's face darkened, he coughed several times and couldn't stop.
Yan Funing saw this and patted his back: "What's wrong with you?"
For no reason, why would I choke?
"Nothing." Fu Ciyi raised his hand and calmly stopped her from patting his back.
When he finally stopped coughing, she asked again, "Can you teach me?"
His voice was soft and soft, his eyes had a glimmer of light, and there was a smile at the end of his eyes.
As if sincerely eager to learn.
The man pondered for a long time, then uttered two words with his cool lips: "We'll discuss it again." Finally, he didn't refuse directly.
"Okay!" Yan Funing agreed happily.
The two of them entered the mountains.
Yan Funing first went to the dead tree lying down to pick wild oyster mushrooms.
Fu Ciyi went to the place where he could catch pheasants and rabbits, but found no trace.
He came back to meet her, spoke to her, and prepared to go deeper into the mountains.
"I'll go too." Yan Funing patted the dust on her hands.
"Go further in, and there will be wild animals."
"But the basket has been filled with oyster mushrooms. I'm waiting here to get bored. And it's daytime, so wild beasts should rarely come out."
"what ever."
The two walked side by side, with a distance of three or four steps between them.
The sun shines from the treetops, illuminating the ground with tiny dappled lights.
Fallen leaves make a rustling sound underfoot.
Occasionally, there were a few calls from unknown sources, distant and hard to hear clearly.
Fu Ciyi walked quickly in the direction of the voice, and Yan Funing hurriedly followed.
A quarter of an hour later, the sound became clearer and clearer, and they finally saw a few pheasants.
Only then did Yan Funing realize that the crow just now was coming from a pheasant.
However, there was a canyon between where they were standing and where the pheasant was.
The canyon is about ten feet wide and cannot be passed at all.
The pheasants flapped their wings as if they were mocking them for not being able to do anything about them.
Yan Funing picked up the pebbles on the ground and threw them over.
Probably because she was too weak, the pebbles were only thrown two or three feet away before falling into the canyon.
Fu Ciyi looked at her childish look and said softly: "I can't catch her today, so go back."
"Are you angry? I scared them so much, but they just stared at me with their necks raised."
After saying that, she simply put down her backpack, picked up a slightly larger stone, raised her arm and threw it hard.
Not surprisingly, the rocks also fell into the canyon.
The pheasant on the other side of the canyon flapped its wings again and cackled, as if it was really mocking.
"Two pheasants are worth one tael of silver, but the other side is worth several taels of silver. I was actually laughed at by the money."
Yan Funing became angry and kept mumbling.
Hearing this, Fu Ciyi's expressionless handsome face showed a rare smile.
Seeing that he was also laughing at him, Yan Funing exhaled angrily, kicked the stones with her toes and fell towards the canyon.
Immediately there was the sound of stones rolling down the mountain, and soon there was an echo.
Listening to the sound, the canyon is quite deep.
She looked down into the canyon.
Looking at it like this, she saw two Ganoderma lucidum growing on the cliff.
And it’s still red Ganoderma lucidum! "Look!" Yan Funing pointed toward the canyon, "There's Ganoderma lucidum!"
"where?"
There were a lot of vegetation growing on the cliffs. Fu Ciyi looked around but couldn't see the Ganoderma lucidum she was talking about.
"That!"
Yan Funing was excited and anxious. Ganoderma lucidum was so easy to recognize, how could someone not see it? Excited, she grabbed his sleeve.
She wanted him to get closer to her, so that he could probably see her at a glance by following the direction she pointed.
Who would have thought that she would grab his finger? !
Time seems to have stopped and the air seems to be stagnant.
Fu Ciyi's fingers instantly stiffened, and his skin could clearly feel the tenderness of the woman's small hands.
What he couldn't ignore was that the scar on her palm was on the back of his index finger.
