Chapter 6: Eyes to each other
"No, it's not."
Yan Funing took a small burden and moved her steps.
In the baggage is her clothes, and there is no luggage beside her.
The two entered the house one after the other.
The house was unoccupied for a long time, and even if it walked slowly, it still raised a lot of dust, and the dust illuminated by the light also floated.
Yan Funing wanted to ask him why he didn't tell his family, she was the one who quit him, but when she saw so much dust in the house, she had to shut up and clean up.
I just moved to the countryside, and although I didn't have a lot of luggage, it still took a lot of time to organize it.

Lunch.
Wan Niang blamed herself: "It's all my fault that I'm useless." β
They came out of Fu's house, they didn't bring rice and noodles, and they had to go hungry.
"When I came out, I brought some steamed buns and ate them at noon." Fu Ciyi took out a cloth bag and put it on the table, "In the afternoon, I will go to the mountains to collect firewood." β
Grab some game by the way.
As he spoke, he first gave his mother a steamed bun.
Fu Beimo moved quickly, took one in each of his left and right hands, and started gnawing.
Fu Nanyao took a steamed bun and put it in Yan Funing's hand: "Sister-in-law, eat quickly." β
Yan Funing: "Thank you! β
The weather is cold, and the steamed buns are frozen and hard.
Fu Beimo only took a few bites, but he couldn't eat anymore, and shouted to collect firewood.
Wan Niang said: "I simply ate the morning food, and it was okay to be hungry for a meal, but it was my daughter-in-law who suffered." β
Although the daughter-in-law is not the daughter of the Yan family, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she will endure hardships when she marries her eldest son. Just thinking about it made her feel distressed.
Yan Funing took a small bite of food, not knowing how to answer, but said, "I'm not hungry." β
It is said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a problem since ancient times, but her nominal mother-in-law is really good, soft-spoken, and gentle.
After a slight pause, Yan Funing said again: "I'm going to collect firewood too." β
Afraid that someone would not bring her, she raised her eyes to look at him.
Fu Ciyi didn't expect her to meet his gaze like this.
He stood, looking at her in a high and low manner.
From this angle, he could easily catch her expression.
Her eyelashes were thick and long, and her watery eyes stared at him unblinking, like a little fox begging for mercy......
Innocent with cunning.
Let's just say that this woman does everything with a purpose, and now that she has nowhere to go, she begins to pretend to be pitiful in front of him?
But to his surprise, her eyes were clear and clean.
"Just let their brothers go."
Wan Niang's words made the two people who looked at each other retract their gazes, and each nibbled on cold steamed buns.
Yan Fu lowered his eyes and said: "One more person can pick up more, if it is cold today, the firewood will burn quickly." β
Wan Niang agreed to let her go.
Before leaving, Fu Ciyi took a few strips of cloth, tied them together, and prepared to bundle firewood. Yan Funing took out a basket from the firewood room and carried it on her back.
The two called Fu Beimo and walked into the mountain together.
The weather was cold, and there was hardly any big firewood to pick up on the hill near the village.
The three of them had no choice but to march deep into the mountains.
Fu Ciyi is tall and long-legged, walking in front, speechless all the way.
Fu Beimo followed Yan Funing's side, kicking the dry twigs on the ground as he walked, and said crookedly: "...... Has my sister-in-law ever seen ants fight? β
Yan Fu shook her head: "No." β
"It's nice to see ants fighting, I'll take my sister-in-law to watch it next time."
"Okay."
Fu Beimo said happily: "My brother and sister never agree to accompany me, it's better to be sister-in-law." β
Fu Ciyi, who was walking in front, paused imperceptibly, how is a certain woman?
It's just a faΓ§ade.
He wants to see how long she can act?
The deep mountains are probably infested with wild beasts, and they are rarely visited.
There was a lot of firewood on the ground, and after a while, the three of them picked up a lot.
They piled up the firewood and bundled it into bundles.
After the firewood was bundled into four stacks, Fu Ciyi said coldly: "Wait for me here, I'll go back when I go." β
Fu Beimo: "Oh. β
Yan Funing: "Okay." β
Waiting for Fu Ciyi's figure to disappear from sight, Yan Funing walked to the other side.
Fu Beimo followed her footsteps, thinking that she still had to pick up firewood, so he spoke: "Sister-in-law's back basket is too small to hold firewood." β
Yan Funing patted the dust on her hands: "The back basket is not here to hold firewood." β
"What's that for?" Fu Beimo caught up.
"Mushroom picking." Yan Funing stopped and looked around, "Find out if there is any dead wood nearby, if you're lucky, ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw a dead tree lying on it covered with wild oyster mushrooms.
Yan Funing ran quickly, picked them off one by one and put them in the back basket behind her.
Fu Beimo followed her example, picked it carefully, and put it in her back basket.
Soon the back basket was full.
Fu Beimo muttered: "I can't fit it." β
"It's okay, keep a little small, let's pick it up next time."
When the two returned to the firewood stack, Fu Ciyi had not returned.
Yan Fu condensed the back basket on her body and pinched her pantothenic shoulder. This body is really squeamish, just carrying such a basket of oyster mushrooms makes my shoulders sore.
Fu Beimo took a withered branch, squatted on the ground and scratched, and suddenly shouted: "Sister-in-law, come and see, there are ants!" β
Yan Fu moved her arms, walked to his side, wrapped up her skirt, and squatted down.
There are indeed a few ants on the ground.
"They didn't fight."
Fu Beimo said seriously: "Yes, they like to fight in groups. β
Yan Funing was surprised: "Your observation is very powerful." β
Ants live in groups, and ants of different races often clash, causing fiery fighting, as if two armies were charging into battle.
The naΓ―ve boy in front of him can observe this, which is really amazing.
The first time he was praised, Fu Beimo looked a little boyish, he scratched his head and smiled shyly.
Others will only scold him for being a little fool, only his sister-in-law is different, and she will praise him!
When Fu Ciyi came back, he saw the two of them squatting, looking down at the ground.
Hearing footsteps, the two people on the ground looked up in unison.
Yan Fu saw that someone was carrying a pheasant in his hand, and his body was clean and refreshing, without the slightest embarrassment left by catching a pheasant.
Isn't this person a weak scholar, and he will catch pheasants?
On second thought, in the book he tied her up and put the blade against her face, and such characters were probably not weak.
Fu Beimo happily waved at his brother: "Brother, come and see the ants." β
Fu Ciyi said to himself: "Twilight is about to fall, let's go down the mountain." β
Fu Beimo stuck out his tongue and grimaced at his brother when he turned around.
The appearance was funny and innocent, causing Yan Funing to giggle.
Fu Ciyi turned his head when he heard the voice, his eyes sinking slightly.
Yan Fu stopped smiling, picked up the basket, and Fu Beimo honestly went to pick up firewood.
Fu Ciyi tied the pheasant to the firewood, picked up two bundles of firewood, and took the lead down the mountain.
When they were almost home, they saw that the courtyard was full of people.
A woman shouted: "Everyone is judging, is it a robber who occupies someone else's yard?" β
Fu Nanmiao's face flushed with anger: "What is the occupation, this is our yard!" β
The woman crossed her hands on her hips, opened her voice and said loudly: "This is my yard, my father and mother are going to use this yard to find me a son-in-law, everyone in the village knows it!" β
