"Just take a look, and you can't do that?"
The man lowered his eyes and pinched his brows.
Yan Funing muttered, "That's all I'm asking." She continued to reach out to untie his robe. "Take it off quickly. We need to iron it so the collar and cuffs look better."
Fu Ci Yi stretched out his arms.
Just as she was about to help him take off his robe, he said, "I want to sleep in the bedroom on my birthday."
"ah?"
"Why, you won't?"
Yan Funing twitched her lips slightly and said, "Okay, since you are the most important on your birthday, I will give you my bedroom."
--
That night, in the county town, in the courtyard of the second branch of the Yan family.
Second Master Yan pointed at the siblings who were making a fuss in the two rooms to the left and right, and said to Fu Minghe and Yan Haitang, "Look, they are already this old, but they still live in the same yard with us."
The madness is really getting worse.
Every night, they could only tie up Yan Yarou and Yan Haobo to force them to sleep for a while.
Yan Haitang pretended to be concerned: "Second Uncle, didn't you and Second Aunt go looking for a master some time ago?"
Fu Minghe also asked: "Yeah, didn't you find it?"
Master Yan sighed, "We did find him, but he disappeared somewhere, so we had no choice but to return."
Now their two children are suffering from more and more frequent symptoms of insanity, and the master is nowhere to be found, which makes them worried.
Yan Haitang was puzzled: "Didn't they say that scaring the little hoof would temporarily alleviate the symptoms of the third sister and fourth brother? Didn't the tree in Qingshan Town work?"
Master Yan's eyes glared. "Just talking about this makes me angry. I sent people to Qingshan Town to check, and they found that the crown of the tree had disappeared."
"What's going on?" Yan Haitang frowned, "Is the little hoof okay?"
Master Yan clenched his fist and hit his palm: "After investigation, it was found that Fu Ciyi was the one who interfered. That family directly cut down the tree crown."
"So, Fu Ciyi is quite concerned about Yan Funing?"
Fu Minghe thought of the humiliation he suffered under the crotch, and then thought of the loving couple Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing were now, which made him extremely hateful and angry.
An idea immediately came to mind: "Second Uncle, I think we can do this..."
--
The next morning.
The market is bustling with shouts of hawkers.
Yan Funing was shopping with Caiyu and the Fu siblings, all preparing to buy a birthday gift for Fu Ciyi.
Fu Nanyao was sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by Meng Li. Although people often found it strange to see her sitting on the street, she felt quite comfortable not having to walk by herself.
After visiting several shops, Yan Funing said, "Let's split into two groups. Beimo and Ali will take good care of Nanyao, and Caiyu will come with me to the bookstore."
Fu Beimo reached out and pulled Yan Funing's sleeve: "Sister-in-law, I want to follow you, not Yuan Lian."
Before Yan Funing could say anything, Fu Nanyao snorted, "I don't want you to follow me either."
After saying that, she turned her head and let Meng Li push her away.
Fu Beimo stuck out his tongue at Fu Nanyao's back, then turned to Yan Funing and laughed, "Good sister-in-law, I don't know how to choose a gift, can you help me pick one?"
"Okay." Yan Funing smiled dotingly.
The three of them went to the bookstore.
Just then, a carriage stopped beside Fu Nanyao's wheelchair.
A man got out of the car, still waving a folding fan in the weather. When he saw Fu Nanyao coming out in a wheelchair, he said happily, "Miss Fu."
Fu Nanyao nodded and greeted, "Mr. Lu."
Lu Wenfeng folded his folding fan and bowed. "I really want to visit Miss Fu more often. I've been studying hard for a month for my academic success, and today I've come all the way here to see Miss Fu."
"Looking for me?" Fu Nanyao was surprised.
Since the fifteenth day of September, when this man said he liked her, he had not appeared since. She thought he had just made a joke and forgotten about it, but she did not expect that he would come to look for her today.
Meng Li's hands gripping the wheelchair handles gradually tightened.
Reason told him that he could do nothing and say nothing at the moment.
Lu Wenfeng smiled and said, "I came to see you, and also to see your brother."
Fu Nanyao is a girl after all, and she is thin-skinned, so he has to drag Fu Ciyi into it.
"My brother is reviewing at home. Please come this way, Mr. Lu." Fu Nanyao raised her hand.
This scene was noticed by Yan Funing and others who had already walked away.
Caiyu asked softly, "Miss, do we want to go back?"
"It's okay if you don't reply."
Anyway, Lu Wenfeng was looking for the Fu brothers and sisters.
She was more concerned about preparing a birthday gift for someone.
When they arrived at the bookstore, Fu Beimo walked around the bookshelves and quickly picked out a book for Yan Funing to read.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think about giving this book to my brother as a birthday gift?"
Yan Funing looked at the title and said with a smile, "'The Gentleman's Guide', yes, your brother needs this book. Bei Mo is an expert at picking out gifts."
"Brother, do you really need it?" Fu Beimo blinked his innocent eyes, "Will you like it?"
"I really need it. Your brother will definitely like it." Yan Funing took the book and handed it to the owner behind the counter. "Boss, please help me wrap it up."
The shop owner asked enthusiastically, "What else would you like, Mrs. Jieyuan?"
Yan Funing glanced at the shelf behind him and asked, "Do you have any fine inkstones?"
"Yes," the shopkeeper pointed at them one by one. "This set of inkstones is five hundred coins. That one is a bit better, one tael of silver. There's another set next to it, two taels of silver."
Yan Funing was not satisfied and asked, "Is there anything better?"
The shop owner thought about it and realized that the young lady’s husband was now of a different status, so he naturally looked down on ordinary inkstones.
He pointed to something wrapped in silk at the top of the shelf and said, "This is the best thing in my shop. I want ten taels of silver."
"Can I take a look?"
"Of course."
He brought a stool, stepped on it, and brought the things down.
He placed the items on the counter, unrolled the silk, and revealed an exquisite brocade box. He then opened the box again, revealing a set of inkstones and inkstones.
The ink stick is engraved with auspicious clouds and sea tide patterns, and it looks heavy and substantial.
The shape of the inkstone is even more unique, presenting the shape of mountains and seas.
At one end are rolling hills, and at the other end is the place for dipping water and grinding ink, like a lake or sea.
Yan Funing liked it at first sight and said with a smile, "This is the one."
"Mrs. Jieyuan, do you really want it?"
"Yes, really. How much is that book? I'll pay for it all at once."
"One tael of silver for 'The Gentleman's Guide', and ten taels of silver for this set of inkstones and inkstones," the shopkeeper said. "Lady Jieyuan, just give me ten taels."
"When I bought the pen at the beginning of the year, I bargained for the price because my family was very tight on money at the time." Yan Funing smiled softly and took out a silver ingot and a small gold ingot from her purse. "Eleven taels of silver, boss, keep it."
"Bargaining is all right. As long as it can be sold, there will be a profit." The shopkeeper laughed loudly and accepted the money, then lowered his voice, "Your husband's books, I can make twenty taels for each one now."
Yan Funing smiled: "That's because the boss has good taste."
"The main thing is that your husband's calligraphy is good, and now that he has the title of Jieyuan, the price is high."
"Boss, why don't you wait a little longer? After next year's Spring Examination, maybe the price will be even higher."
"I thought so too. After earning twenty taels per copy, I kept all the remaining copies." He sighed, "Mrs. Jieyuan, why don't you help me talk to your husband, Jieyuan, and ask him to copy a few more copies for me?"
"My husband is busy with his studies now, so he really doesn't have time to earn any more money."
