Chapter 19
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, the snow began to clear and the sun was bright.

The white snow reflects the sun and dazzles people's eyes.

Yan Funing suffered from the cold, and Wan Niang was very anxious.

There is no doctor in the village. It snowed heavily yesterday and the snow is thick today. It is inconvenient to go to the town hospital for treatment.

She asked her youngest son to support her early and sat down in the main room, keeping her ears perked to pay attention to the movements in the west room.

The strange thing is that the eldest son always gets up early, why can't he get up today?

My daughter-in-law is unwell and should sleep more.

In doubt, Wan Niang wanted to ask her younger son to ask.

Then I thought, the young couple was asleep and it would be inappropriate for anyone to call the door, so I waited patiently.

Finally the door opened.

Wan Niang shouted: "Ci Yi, come here quickly."

Fu Ciyi was about to go to the kitchen when he heard his mother calling him, so he went over.

Wan Niang took her eldest son's arm and whispered, "Fu Ning is not feeling well. You can't think about consummating the marriage at this time."

Fu Ciyi was startled: "Mom, what are you talking about? My son doesn't think about it at all!"

How could he have that kind of thoughts about her?
Unless he's crazy!
When Wan Niang heard this, she slapped him hard on the back.

"Why did you hit me?"

"It's wrong not to want to."

"You'd better sit still and let your son prepare breakfast first."

After saying this, he went to the kitchen.

At this moment, Yan Funing had already gotten up. She had been lying down all day yesterday, and her body temperature had dropped a lot today.

Fu Beimo was playing with making a snowman in the courtyard. He caught a glimpse of her figure and called happily: "Sister-in-law."

Yan Funing waved her hand at him, and Fu Beimo picked up a snowball and threw it at her.

She raised her hand and grabbed it easily.

"Sister-in-law, come out and play." He invited.

Unlike my sister, who only knows how to hide.I asked her to pick it up three steps away, but she couldn't pick it up.

The sister-in-law is still awesome, she really deserves to be his sister-in-law!
Wan Niang stopped her: "Funing, you are cold and can't blow the wind."

Yan Funing responded and looked at Fu Beimo apologetically: "I'm right at the door, watching you play."

Fu Beimo was not upset and went to Yan Funing with a shovel to play in the snow.

After eating the food, Wan Niang gave Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing the field deed she found last night.

"Look, is it a field deed?"

Fu Ciyi nodded: "It's the field deed."

"That's right, the address is written above. When the snow melts, you can go and have a look at your own fields." Wan Niang smiled, "You can plant whatever you want."

Yan Funing said: "Plant vegetables and grain first."

Wan Niang nodded: "Okay."

There was a hum from the door of the east room.

In the past two days, Fu Nanyao did not appear wherever Yan Funing was.

Even though she hasn't eaten yet, she doesn't come to her.

Wan Niang shook her head and said to Yan Funing: "She has this temper, don't worry about her."

Yan Funing said: "Mom, I don't worry about it."

Fu Nanyao should be angry, but she was not annoyed at all.

But these words were particularly harsh to Fu Nanyao's ears.

It was obvious that she had withdrawn from her brother's marriage, so she was pretending to be nice now.

Thinking that she had scolded her for being lame and unable to find her husband's family, she would definitely dominate her parents' family in the future. With such a sister-in-law, she would not marry.

Fu Nanyao was so angry that her whole body trembled.

It would be best if her brother divorced her immediately so that she could relieve her anger.
-
The weather is cold and the snow barely melts.

Fu Ciyi took Fu Beimo to clean the snow in the courtyard, and also cleared the road leading to the river from the entrance of the courtyard.

Wan Niang knew that Yan Funing liked to eat the hand-made noodles she made, so she took Fu Nanyao to roll the noodles in the kitchen and prepare them for lunch.Hearing that the noodles were specially made for Yan Funing, Fu Nanyao was furious.

While his brother was away and his mother was in the kitchen, Fu Nanyao went to Yan Funing.

"Hey, I'm telling you, you are not allowed to eat the noodles made by my mother!"

Yan Funing was sitting at the window, looking at the snowy scenery all over the mountains and fields.

Seeing Fu Nanyao's angry face, she looked back at her calmly.

"Wheat flour and eggs, which one didn't I buy with money?"

Fu Nanyao choked and said after a moment: "If you have the guts, don't eat it. You have scolded our family and withdrew my brother's marriage, so you don't deserve to eat it!"

Yan Funing smiled lightly.

"I bought all the food at home now, and spent the money I earned. I haven't touched what your brother earned. You told me not to eat, but I insisted on eating." She said slowly, "I I’m not that stingy like you, if you want to eat, you can eat it, I won’t deny it to you.”

She felt guilty before, but now she has said everything, and she was scolded back by her, so why should she be so humble?

Fu Nanyao's face turned red with anger: "You!"

Yan Funing added: "It's okay to eat the ribs secretly. I just don't know who said it was for dogs to eat."

Fu Nanyao's index finger trembled and she pointed at Yan Funing's hibiscus noodles, stunned.

"You have sharp teeth and a sharp tongue. Even if my brother marries you, he will not like you."

"Yeah, I don't want him to like me either. I told him to divorce my wife, but he refused to let go." Yan Funing smiled, her eyes sparkling, and her smile was particularly bright, "Do you think he was too early?" She likes me, after all, I’m quite good-looking.”

Fu Nanyao finally realized what he was doing, and was so angry that his heart heaved violently.

"You, you are so shameless!"

After cursing like this, she wanted to run back to the kitchen.

He turned around and saw his brother coming over, and hurriedly asked: "Brother, look at her, have you heard everything? She is such a thing, do you really like her?"

Fu Ciyi did not answer, but simply said: "You can't quarrel with her."

Just as she was quick to talk, she raised her eyes and saw someone, and Yan Funing's smile disappeared.

Fu Nanyao saw the change in her expression, seemed to be angry, and returned to the kitchen with a snort.

Fu Ciyi passed by the door of the room and said coldly: "It is a good thing to be self-aware, but if it is too much, it becomes arrogance."

like her?
Unless he has a hole in his head!
Yan Funing bit her inner lip and said she couldn't comment behind someone's back.

Now it's all right, it's embarrassing!

With this incident, Fu Nanyao no longer avoided Yan Funing.

When it's time to eat, I have to compete with her.

Wan Niang stopped her on the table, but Fu Nanyao used her good leg to kick Yan Funing under the table.

Thinking that she was lame, Yan Funing just avoided and did not hit back.
-
Two days later, most of the snow had melted.

Early in the morning, Yan Funing asked Fu Beimo to help carry a basket of winter bamboo shoots to the entrance of the village, and paid five cents to the driver Li.

"Beimo, go back and tell mother that I'm going to town."

Fu Beimo tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Sister-in-law, bring back some candies, okay?"

"candy?"

"Ah."

Yan Funing smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Li, the driver, called other villagers to get on the bus. Seeing that the uncle and sister-in-law were still talking, he shouted: "Girl, get in the bus quickly, we are about to set off."

"coming."

As soon as Yan Funing got in the car and sat down, she saw someone carrying three pheasants over.

The pheasant's legs and feet were tied, its wings were flapping straight, and its feathers were flying around.

A lot of it stuck to his hair.

His originally handsome appearance suddenly looked a bit funny.

Li, the driver, smiled and said, "It's really strange that you two are separated."

Fu Ciyi took out five copper coins and gave them to the driver, tied three pheasants to the crossbar of the ox cart, and sat down next to Yan Funing without saying a word.
