Chapter 18: Retaining the Lovely Wife
He hurriedly got off the ladder and entered the house.

She fell limply to the ground, her face pale and her brows furrowed.

He said quietly: "She is just unconscious."

When he heard that his sister-in-law was not dead, Fu Beimo immediately stopped crying and said, "Brother, hurry up and take your sister-in-law to bed."

Fu Ciyi's face was gloomy, he didn't want to hug her.

Seeing that his brother was not moving, Fu Beimo muttered: "If you don't hug me, I will!"

He bent down and stretched out his hand, but before his hand could touch Yan Funing, someone grabbed her by the collar of her back coat.

Fu Ciyi carried Fu Beimo aside, frowned and held Yan Funing's back, put his hands under her armpits, and dragged her onto the bed.

This move shocked Fu Beimo on the spot.

At this moment, Fu Wanniang came over.

When she heard her youngest son crying, she asked her daughter to bring her, but Fu Nanyao refused.

She had no choice but to walk forward gropingly, and only now did she arrive.

Seeing his mother coming, Fu Beimo complained: "Mom, my brother dragged my sister-in-law onto the bed like a sack."
-
When Yan Funing woke up again, it was already noon.

Fu Beimo brought the food.

"Sister-in-law, hurry up and eat, brother made this." He put the food on the bedside, "Mom said you have caught the cold and need to rest well."

Seeing her alive, he couldn't stop smiling.

An innocent smile can always heal everything.

Yan Funing smiled and said, "Thank you Beimo!"

His voice was hoarse.

"Sister-in-law, get well soon. The snow is still falling. We can play in the snow tomorrow."

"Ah."

Yan Funing picked up the bowl and ate in small bites.

Seeing that she had eaten, Fu Beimo left the house with relief.

At this time, Fu Nanyao's voice came from outside: "Let her be, why is mother so nice to her?"

Wan Niang said: "She was adopted since she was a child and she doesn't know who her biological parents are. This alone makes people feel pity."

Yan Funing heard this and tightened her hands on the chopsticks.

In the afternoon, Wan Niang let her youngest son support her and came to sit in front of Yan Funing.

"Child, are you feeling better?"

"Much better." Yan Funing took out the jade bracelet from under the pillow and put it in Wan Niang's hand, "Mom, on the day of the wedding, the bride was the wrong one. I was not the wife of the second young master. I canceled the engagement at the door of the book club, leaving the second young master without a trace. It’s not my fault that I lost face. These two things, the relationship between me and the second young master as husband and wife..."

Sooner or later it will be gone.

"I can't accept this jade bracelet. Please take it back, mother."

It is written in the book that after someone became a powerful minister, Wan Niang gave this jade bracelet to the prime minister's daughter.

The prime minister's daughter became Fu Ciyi's legitimate fiancée.

Wan Niang sighed: "What did you call me just now?"

"mother."

"Since you call me mother, why can't you accept this jade bracelet?" Wan Niang put the jade bracelet on Yan Funing's hand again, "This jade bracelet is for my daughter-in-law!"

Yan Fu froze, not knowing whether to stop or not.

The book also mentioned that the prime minister's daughter disliked the poor quality of the jade bracelet. After receiving it, she smashed the jade bracelet behind her back.

Since Wan Niang couldn't see it, the prime minister Qianjin took the jade bracelet nearby and put it on her wrist.

Wan Niang touched the prime minister's daughter's wrist and felt very happy that she was wearing the jade bracelet she gave her every day.

Yan Funing pursed her lips. If she returned the jade bracelet, it would probably be smashed and thrown away.

If the jade bracelet has life, it must be kept intact.

Just like her, she doesn't want to follow the footsteps of cannon fodder girls and try her best to flirt with someone in the past two years.

Thinking so, she put away the jade bracelet.

Wan Niang said with a smile: "Although I can't see, I can see with my heart. You are a good person. My family, Ci Yi, is lucky to marry you."

"But mother, I..."

"Let the past go by." Wan Niang patted her hand, "My mother's attitude yesterday was wrong. She should have protected you. Ci Yi was also wrong. He failed to chase him out. My mother apologized for him."

"It doesn't matter, mother." A certain person also didn't want to be married to her, but fortunately he agreed to reconcile in two years.

She never dared to tell Wan Niang in front of her about this, so she changed the subject: "Mom, what's wrong with your eyes?"

Wan Niang shook her head: "I can't remember. I can't even remember what happened 15 years ago. I only remember that I was pregnant and took my son with me. I wanted to take him to run, as far as possible... …”

This is how you can survive.

She didn't say the last half of the sentence for fear of scaring her daughter-in-law.

After a pause, she added: "I probably had this experience when I was young. Ci Yi has always been taciturn. Don't be surprised."

Yan Funing said quickly: "No."

On a snowy day, it won’t stop snowing for a while.

If this continues, we will run out of rice and noodles at home.

"I didn't buy rice yesterday. I wanted to ask in the village who has a lot and can buy some. It should be cheaper than the grain and oil store. It would be great if you have a field at home, where you can grow grain and vegetables."

Wan Niang said: "There is indeed a field, but I don't know where it is. I have to look for the land deed."

As she said that, she tucked her in the quilt.

After squeezing the quilt like this, Wan Niang was shocked and said: "Why are you only covered with one quilt? Mom gave you two quilts, and you want them to be covered together. It's cold today, so it's easy to catch cold if you only cover yourself with one quilt."

When Fu Ciyi came back, he heard his mother asking about the quilt.

Yan Funing explained: "Mom, we sleep on two beds. Now I have to dress warmly during the day, so one bed is enough."

Wan Niang shook her head and sighed when she felt that the quilt on the other side was folded.

"I already suffer from the cold, so I have to put up two beds during the day."

With that said, he pulled another quilt and covered Yan Funing with it.

Yan Funing looked at someone standing at the end of the bed uneasily.

Fu Ciyi's face was expressionless, and she couldn't read it.

After a while, he went out.

Wan Niang stayed in their room for a long time, and when it was time for dinner, Fu Beimo came to help her away.

Fu Ciyi came in with dinner.

Yan Funing opened his quilt and said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, just to hide the fact that we slept separately, I just..."

"Mom tells you to cover it, so you cover it."

He put the meal on the bedside and quickly left the house.
-
When night fell, Fu Ciyi returned to his room.

He stood at the end of the bed, pondered for a long time, and then said: "I'll go squeeze in with Bei Mo."

Yan Funing said: "Then you will know that we are sleeping together."

He didn't answer, turned around and left.

Yan Funing hurriedly got out of bed and reached out to grab his sleeve: "Don't leave, okay?"

Her voice was delicate and soft, as if a darling wife was trying to persuade her husband to stay overnight.

Fu Ciyi clenched his fist.

When he didn't respond, she added, "Beimo's bed is small, only big enough for one person to sleep on."

He lowered his head and glanced at the small hands that were tightly grasping his sleeves, and said in a strange way: "You have caught a cold, you should keep warm."

"One quilt is enough for me. Wear thicker clothes to sleep on."

Her fever was probably related to walking too much in the past few miles.The female partner is of a delicate body, and she is exhausted from two trips to town and several trips into the mountains.

In addition, the hand was injured and had some inflammation.

Of course, it’s true that it’s a little cold when you put on a quilt at night.

But compared to these, she didn't want her mother-in-law to know that they were actually sleeping under separate quilts.

Fu Ciyi finally stayed.

The two of them were trapped one by one again.

After turning off the lights and going to bed, Fu Ciyi lay on the bed, his whole body stiff.

Her scent lingered on the quilt, and the elegant fragrance of her daughter's home penetrated his nose faintly.

Make it difficult for him to sleep.
