Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 7 Toffee
Fu Yunlai was silent for a moment, then firmly shook his head: "Come on!"

Although she really wanted to tell her sister about it, in a few decades in the future, it would be this kind of small sweet potato that would be particularly popular.

I also want to tell her sister that in the future, many people will be able to fill their stomachs just by eating sweet potatoes as a main meal.

Like them now, when it comes to eating, everyone, regardless of age or sex, can at least have a big bowl per person.

There are definitely more sweet potatoes than rice in the bowl, and there are several large plates of vegetables to go with it, but when you eat it, your stomach is full and it takes less than half a day to digest... This is a rare sight!
"Is this thread going to be put in our room? Give the canned food to Mom at night, and it turns out to be canned meat. Mom must be very happy!" Fumanman quickly arranged all the other things, including the remaining ten candies...

Fu Yunlai quickly peeled off a White Rabbit toffee and stuffed it into her sister's mouth before she could speak.

Fu was holding the milk candy in her mouth helplessly. Even if it hadn't melted yet, the rich milk flavor had already filled her mouth.

This made her want to open her mouth to talk about her sister, but she was also afraid that the sweet taste would dissipate.

But if she didn't open her mouth...she felt that she was an adult and no longer needed to eat candies.

Fu Yunlai didn't know what her sister was thinking, not to mention that her sister had always felt indebted because she took over her mother's job, which reduced the family's income.

Even when the sisters were growing up, they didn't have many opportunities to eat candies.

Although their family is a dual-career family, there are five brothers and sisters.

The eldest, Fumanjiang, is ten years older than Manyunlai. The two younger ones are not yet adults, and the eldest and second child are already married and starting a business.

It’s easy to imagine how stressful the family is...

And for this family, this girl in her early twenties has paid too much.

Therefore, Fu Yunlai can't help but want to be nicer to her.

Fumanman looked helplessly at his sister who was smiling proudly.
But the candies were stuffed into her mouth and she couldn't spit them out, so she could only taste them carefully.

As expected, the White Rabbit toffee is said to have seven toffees equivalent to a cup of milk. It has a rich milky taste, a silky texture, and is especially sweet.

Fumanman tasted it carefully for a long time, until half of the candy in her mouth had melted and it no longer affected her ability to speak. Only then did she come back to her senses.

"This white rabbit is so delicious... no wonder it's so hard to buy!" Fu Manman tried to be serious, but he couldn't hide the happiness in his eyes and brows.

There were not many candies, so Fu Manman carefully selected the two remaining white rabbits and stuffed them directly into Fu Yunlai's hands before putting away the remaining candies.

She planned to give it to her mother after the meal, so that her sister's hands wouldn't be too tight. After a while, she would stuff one in this and then another, and then she would be done.

However, when leaving the room, Fu Yunlai stuffed two toffees back into Fu Manman's pocket: "I've already eaten them, and...if I want them again, why can't I exchange them?"

After saying that, without giving Fumanman any time to react, he hurried out to help.

Opening the door, Fu Yunlai saw his second sister-in-law Xu Chunhua coming out with the braised pork she had brought back. The fragrant smell attracted the two children from the second sister-in-law's family to sit at the table early and wait.

Fu Yunlai looked back and saw that his second brother Fu Manhai was quickly placing chopsticks in front of the cleared table. Two large pots of vegetables were already on the table.

Just as Fu Yunlai was preparing to help in the kitchen, Fu's father and Fu's mother walked out carrying a large plate.

Behind him, Fu Manman came out and went directly to the kitchen. He also came out with a small basket of mixed-noodle buns and a stack of large bowls.Fu Yunlai quickly took the big bowl from her sister's hand, and the whole family went to the table together.

The table in the Fujia family is not a traditional square table, but a large round table specially made and delivered by my grandfather from the countryside.

In the past, when the eldest brother Fu Manjiang and the fourth brother Fu Manhe were still there, this table was also full of people.

But now the Fumanjiang family has finally come to the sugar factory to share a house. The family of seven has moved out of the house. Except for the New Year, holidays or other things, they rarely come back.

As for Man He, the fourth brother who is only two years younger than Fu Manman, he went to the countryside to become an educated youth as soon as he graduated from high school two years ago.

Nowadays, the only ones left in the Fu family are the second eldest son, Fu Manhai, his wife, and their two children. One is a girl who is just over three years old, Fu Yuanhe, and the other is only one and a half years old, who is not very fluent in speech, but eats very well. Neat Fuji Construction!

"Xiao Jianshe, you have to sit tight!" Fu Yunlai pushed his little nephew, who wanted to grab it, next to his mother, and touched his little head lovingly.

I can believe that this child’s name was almost from Fujian!

I remember back then, after her eldest brother got married, her sister-in-law successfully gave birth to twin boys for the first time. The two families discussed it excitedly and finally decided to name the two children Fujian Zhong and Fujian Hua.

At that time, although Fu Yunlai felt that the first two characters of the name were a bit...but he didn't find the problem.

When the eldest brother's daughter was born two years later and was to be named a Fujianese, Fu Yunlai was immediately shocked.

In the end, the name "Fu Yuanyuan" was temporarily chosen on the grounds that girls do not need to follow their brothers in typing generation, and the character "Yuan" means "first".

I don’t know if other people agree with Fu Yun Lai, but Fu’s mother, who always loves her little daughter, agreed, and the name was decided.

As for the eldest daughter of the second sister-in-law's family who was born immediately after, it would be no problem to call her Fu Yuanhe, but the son who was born half a year earlier and is now one and a half years old has to be called Fujian...

Fu Yunlai argued hard at the time, saying that although the brothers with this name knew the meaning together, calling it alone did not have a good meaning.

So, I finally got a good name from Fujian Construction for this child.

But later, when the eldest brother's twin brother's son was called a Fujianese, there was no chance of good luck coming.

After all, these children together are building the Chinese people... I don’t know if there will be a few more to make up for it later.

With a smile that others could not understand, Fu Yunlai took the job that her mother handed to her.

The earthen porcelain bowl, which was as big as her little nephew's head, was filled to the brim.

However, most of the bowl was filled with golden pumpkin and clear rice soup. A few grains of cooked rice could be barely seen through the gaps between the large pieces of pumpkin.

Fu Yunlai was already familiar with this. Fortunately, she lived in the south, which mainly produces rice and noodles. Otherwise, what she saw here might not be rice, but corn.

After drinking a few sips of the clear rice soup, the dry mouth and tongue from the trip back were immediately relieved.

Just when Fu Yunlai was about to pick up the golden and slightly sweet pumpkin and start eating, her bowl fell from the sky, and a number of dishes were inserted in succession, the most conspicuous of which were two pieces of fat and soft braised pork.

Fu Yunlai immediately looked up at her sister and mother on both sides, and saw some disapproval on their faces.
