In fact, she didn't want to sleep in the same bed with him, but the problem was that she didn't want to sleep on the floor.
The ground was compacted earth, damp and cold.
Who can bear sleeping on the floor without a mattress?
If you sleep wrapped in a quilt, not only will it get dirty, but it's also quite narrow and won't be enough to wrap you up.
Fortunately, there were two quilts on the bed. Compared to sleeping directly on the floor, it was not unacceptable for her and him to each have one quilt.
Seeing that he didn't respond, and fearing that he would force her to sleep on the floor, Yan Funing gritted her teeth and picked up a sheet: "Let's use the sheet to pull a curtain in the middle of the bed. This way, we can separate each other and not invade each other, okay?"
Fu Ciyi's expression was slightly solemn.
Non-aggression?
Bai Tian said that he would become a great man.
This woman is illiterate, and the words she spoke...
Seems a bit inky.
This is probably because the Yan family is rich, and the Yan family members are used to pretending to be cultured.
Yan Funing took a rope, tied it tightly at the center of both ends of the bed frame, and hung the bed sheet on it.
The bed sheets hung down and were tied with thin ropes at the head and foot of the bed.
"It's quite sturdy." She pinched the sheet and shook it slightly. "What do you think?"
Her eyes were like water, with a smile at the corners, staring at him without blinking.
Fu Ciyi lowered his eyes indifferently, then lay down and fell asleep.
Yan Funing was stunned for a moment, then walked around to the other side of the bed and got on.
She blew out the light, took off her clothes, and lay down quietly.
The mountain wind howled outside the window.
Fu Ciyi frowned. He didn't like having other people in bed.
However, he had set the two-year deadline, so he would endure it for now.
Now the family is short of food and money, and for her, who has been spoiled, such days are only a new thing once or twice a day.
As time goes by, it will become a great torture for her.
He wanted to see what she would do in a few days.
--
The next day, as the dawn gradually broke, the crowing of roosters could be heard one after another.
Yan Funing stretched when she heard the sound, and her arm hit the hanging bed sheet, which made her alert.
I saw that someone's clothes were gone at the end of the bed, so I guess he had gotten up.
She let out a sigh and hurried out of bed.
Living under someone else's roof, she was not allowed to stay in bed. Today she had to go to town to sell wild oyster mushrooms, and the earlier the better.
When she arrived at the kitchen, Fu Ciyi had already filled the water tank.
I was so hungry last night that I ate all the steamed buns and chicken, but there was still a lot of chicken soup left.
Yan Funing washed and shredded two handfuls of oyster mushrooms, cooked them with chicken soup, and ate them that day.
After breakfast, Wan Niang took Yan Funing's hand and touched her face with a smile.
Yan Funing didn't understand.
Fu Nanyao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, mother asked you to serve tea."
Fu Ciyi said calmly, "Mom, there's no tea at home, so you don't have to serve tea."
"How can you talk like that, child? I'm waiting for my daughter-in-law to call me 'mother'."
Wan Niang "looked" at her eldest son, her eyes empty and unfocused.
Yan Funing knew that someone did not regard her as his wife, and similarly, she did not regard him as her husband.
But they are husband and wife in name, and no matter what happens in the future, it is only right to serve tea.
Yan Funing used warm water instead of tea, offered the tea, and called her mother.
Wan Niang was delighted to hear this and put a jade bracelet on Yan Funing's wrist.
"It's so valuable, I can't accept it."
Yan Funing wanted to take off the jade bracelet, but was held down by Wan Niang.
"This bracelet belongs to me, you can wear it with confidence."
"Thank you, mother!"
When the female supporting character broke off the engagement, she said a lot of inappropriate things, and Yan Funing couldn't help feeling guilty about it.
"You are so polite to me, my child." Wan Niang smiled and turned to the twin brother and sister, "Nan Yao and Bei Mo, you two should go out first. I have something to say to your brother and sister-in-law."
The brother and sister said yes and left the room.
Wan Niang held her son and daughter-in-law's hands, one on each side, and asked quietly, "You are already husband and wife. Did you consummate your marriage in two nights?"
She was blind and couldn't see even with the Yuanpa.
Nan Yao is still unmarried, so she can't be asked to see it, so her mother can only ask herself.
Yan Funing was petrified on the spot.
Fu Ciyi was silent for a moment, his face expressionless as he said, "Mother, I am focused on the imperial examination and have no interest in anything else."
Wan Niang wanted to persuade her, but Yan Funing quickly said, "Mother, it's getting late. We need to sell the mushrooms as soon as possible."
"Yes, yes, yes." Wan Niang said repeatedly, "Ci Yi, you go with me."
"No need, I can do it alone." Yan Funing declined politely.
If possible, she would like to stay away from someone.
Although she didn't know the way to town, she could ask someone.
Wan Niang was worried about her daughter going alone, so she sternly asked her eldest son to go with her.
Yan Funing returned to her room and changed into plain clothes, then returned to the kitchen to pick up her backpack. As she stepped out of the kitchen, she saw someone, also wearing a plain robe, waiting for her at the courtyard gate.
The two of them said something to their families and went out one after another.
Fu Beimo waved his hand: "Sister-in-law, come back soon."
Yan Funing turned around and responded with a smile.
Fu Nanyao couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you call your brother to come back earlier?"
"Sister-in-law accompanied me to watch ants yesterday." Fu Beimo's eyes followed the backs of his brother and sister-in-law, muttering, "Brother is not a man, he won't help sister-in-law carry the basket."
Wan Niang laughed when she heard this: "Bei Mo has grown up."
Fu Beimo complained, "Sister-in-law cried out in pain in the car yesterday, but brother didn't help her blow dry her."
Wan Niang smiled even more.
--
A quarter of an hour later, Yan Funing followed Fu Ciyi out of the village.
On the way to the town, many ox carts and donkey carts passed by.
A coachman called out to them, "Hey, would you like a ride? Five cents a head to town."
Fu Ciyi said nothing and just walked on.
Yan Funing waved her hand: "No need."
