Chapter 43: Stern Words
Not long after Yan Funing left the blacksmith shop, Tong Cheng returned.
Tong Ya happily held up the paper bag to show him: "Daddy, my benefactor's sister gave me food." ”
"Sister Benefactor has been here?"
Tong Cheng hurriedly walked out of the shop and looked along the road towards the town.
"Well, the benefactor's sister said she was going home." Tong Ya swallowed her saliva, "Daddy, I haven't eaten the candy my sister gave me, can I eat one now?" ”
Tong Cheng turned his head and said happily, "Eat." ”
Tong Ya took one and bit a small half of it into her mouth: "It's so sweet." ”

On the other side, Yan Funing returned to the village.
The three villagers who were in the same car got out of the car and walked away, and she took out 15 yuan to drive the car.
"Five cents is the cost of the car back, and ten cents is the cost of going to that house."
The driver Li only took five copper plates and returned ten to her.
"The house is only a little road, and you don't need money."
"Yes, the father and daughter of the Tong family will ride with me, ten cents, I still think it is too little." Yan Funing insisted on giving it to him, "Besides, Brother Li just went with me and gave me courage, it's too late for me to thank you." ”
Driver Li touched the back of his head and said embarrassedly: "Then I took it?" ”
Yan Funing smiled: "Take it!" As he spoke, he took out a packet of caramel from the basket, "Well, this is a thank you gift." ”
"Huh?" Li was shocked, "Girl, you are too polite!" ”
Yan Funing put the basket on her back and trotted away, turning her head and shouting as she ran: "Don't return me, my basket is too heavy to run." ”
Li waved at her: "Run slower, I won't pay you back." ”
Mother Li came out and saw her son coming back, and asked casually, "How did you earn today?" ”
"On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, most of the villagers have been to the county, and there are fewer people who go to the town today." Li opened the paper bag, saw that it was caramel candy, and said with a smile, "The little lady of the Fu family is a real person." ”
"The little lady of the Fu family? The daughter-in-law of Fu Wan's mother's family? ”
"Well, mother, do you know her?"
"The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Hu family have said that when they see people from Fu Wan's mother's family in the future, they will scold them, especially her daughter-in-law."
"Mother, don't follow the Hu family to fool around. That little lady is weird, oh, she gave me candy. ”
He handed his mother one of the caramel syrup.
"Really?"
Mother Li couldn't believe it and put the sugar in her mouth.
"Of course it's true, just carrying her today, I earned twenty yuan, and this bag of caramel candy."
He threw a candy into his mouth.
Mother Li tasted the sweetness and smiled, laughing so that the wrinkles at the end of her eyes deepened.
"It's weirdly sweet, the little lady of the Fu family must be sweet."
With such sweet sugar, she will not listen to the words of the Hu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and scold people indiscriminately.

Yan Funing returned home.
Because Fang had just trotted over a distance, he was still out of breath at this time, and his face was dyed a thin red, as bright as a peach and plum.
When she entered the courtyard, she shouted crisply: "Mother." ”
When Wan Niang heard this, she was supported by Fu Beimo and walked out of the east wing.
"Fu Ning is back?"
"Well, mother, let's go to the hall and talk." Yan Funing grabbed Wan Niang's arm and whispered, "I made a lot of money today." ”
Wan Niang was overjoyed when she heard this, and called Fu Nanyao to go to the hall together.
Fu Ciyi sat at the window copying a book, listened to her come back, raised her eyelids, and lowered her eyes to write.
The four of them entered the hall, Yan Funing put down the basket, took out a silver ingot from the purse and put it in Wan Niang's hand.
"This is the money obtained from the two Ganoderma lucidum picked by the husband, ten taels of silver."
"Capable and capable, my daughter-in-law is capable!"
Touching the heavy silver ingot, Wan Niang's eyes were full of tears.
In such a situation in their family, if they don't have such a good daughter-in-law, how can it be?
Excited, Wan Niang shouted to the West Wing: "Ci Yi come here." ”
After Fu Ciyi entered the hall, Wan Niang showed him the silver ingot: "Your lady earned it." ”
Yan Funing said embarrassedly: "Mother, this is earned by the husband." ”
Wan Niang smiled: "You went to sell the Ganoderma lucidum, and you earned it." ”
So saying, let her put the money away.
Fu Ciyi let out a faint "um" and sat down in his robe.
At this time, Fu Nanyao saw that there were no clothes in the back basket, so he asked, "Didn't you ask you to buy clothes?" ”
Yan Funing explained: "There are no ready-to-wear stores in the town, but there are two cloth houses. I would like to discuss with you, do you want to tear the cloth and make your own clothes? ”
Fu Nanyao snorted shallowly: "Don't you know how to sew?" You won't sew, I will. But why didn't you help me buy cloth back? ”
Wan Niang pulled Fu Nanyao: "How do you talk to your sister-in-law?" ”
"Mother, why do you always protect her?"
Fu Nan leaned on Wan Niang's shoulder like a coquettish.
Wan Niang shook her head and sighed: "Where am I protect?" It's clear that you speak with thorns. ”
Yan Funing was not annoyed at all, took out two packets of caramel from the back basket, and gave Fu Beimo a packet first.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Fu Beimo was overjoyed, and put the whole bag of caramel under Fu Nanyao's nose to show off.
Fu Nanyao sat up straight, her little face full of anger.
Yan Funing smiled and gave her the remaining packet of caramel candy: "Can you teach me how to make clothes?" ”
"Then it depends on whether you are smart or not."
Fu Nanyao snatched the caramel and hugged it in front of him, for fear that Yan Funing would regret it.
"Silver ingots are not good to spend in the town, because I didn't buy fabric today." Yan Funing said with palpitations, "I'm afraid that someone will come to grab the silver ingot, so I keep it in my purse." Because when I went to sell Ganoderma lucidum, I encountered a little problem. ”
When he said the latter, his voice was full of tears.
Wan Niang heard it, and grabbed her hand with both hands: "Fu Ning, what's wrong?" Tell your mother about it! ”
"When I went to the clinic to sell Ganoderma lucidum, they were only willing to give 500 wen each. I thought the price was too low, so I wanted to leave, but they stopped me. ”
She didn't know how she had managed to pretend to be calm.
Looking back at the moment, I was very scared.
"There are a lot of guys in the hospital, and there are people who look like thugs. They also said that there was only one of their clinics in the whole town, and that there was no place next to them that would accept my Ganoderma lucidum. ”
When Wan Niang heard this, she patted her heart in a panic: "Then what about later, how did you earn these ten taels of silver?" ”
"I told me that my husband was waiting for me outside, and they didn't stop me. Fortunately, I met a father and daughter......" Yan Funing gave a general account of what happened, "Accompanied by the father and daughter of the Li and Tong families, I went to the house to sell Ganoderma lucidum. To thank them, I bought two extra packets of caramel and gave them as a thank you. ”
"Ahh
Wan Niang was distressed, and with trembling hands, she hugged Yan Funing into her arms.
"Mother!"
The tears that were originally well controlled, but she couldn't hold back when she was distressed by others.
Lying in Wan Niang's arms, two tears fell.
Yan Funing ordered herself that she could only shed two tears at the moment, and she couldn't do any more.
Because her body is very delicate, once she cries, it will be endless.
Seeing this, Fu Ciyi's eyebrows furrowed.
There was a coldness on the tips of his eyebrows, and his expression was difficult to distinguish.
Wan Niang caressed Yan Funing's back lovingly, and suddenly said sternly to Fu Ciyi: "How do you become a husband?" ”
