A Happy Event in a Farming Family: Marrying a Hunter

Yun Luo gave her a light pinch, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"What nonsense..." Fatty was about to say something, but seeing the two children beside her, she didn't want them to be led astray. She took out some Dingding candy from her bosom and gave some to each of them. With Yunluo's permission, the two children went to Aunt Zhang's house to play.

"Yunluo, although your man isn't well-liked in the village, he's still one of the most handsome men there. You just left like that, don't you miss him?"

Yun Luo rolled her eyes. "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to learn from you. Look, my belly has gotten thinner, and my face is smaller too. But I've been following your methods for the past few days, and they're not working anymore. Please help me think of a way to lose weight!"

Yunluo glanced at it and realized it was true. "How many bowls of rice do you eat in one meal?"

"Six large bowls of rice, plus four large steamed buns and three bowls of soup!"

Goodness, that's almost three days' worth of her food.

"Starting today, I'll halve my food intake and see how it goes for a while."

Even so, she still ate a lot, but with her figure, if she ate too little all of a sudden, she probably wouldn't be able to handle it, and Yun Luo wouldn't dare to let her diet!

Fatty pinched the fat on her belly and chuckled, "Exercising is no problem, but I'm starving. Is there any other way?"

"No, you've fattened up your stomach, now you need to slowly heal it. This is for your own good. Do you still want to get married?" Yun Luo said irritably. If she didn't consider Fatty a friend, she wouldn't bother with her.

"Yes, of course!"

Fatty trusts Yunluo. Look how badly her grandma treats her. Yunluo is beautiful and has great skin. Listen to her, you can't go wrong.

"Sister-in-law!" Hu Zi glanced into the courtyard and, seeing Yun Luo there, came in himself. "Sister-in-law, Xiao Ran, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yan went to the river to wash clothes with my mother. They asked me to tell you that they'll bring them back to you later."

"Okay, please thank your mother for me." Yunluo said, grabbing a handful of dried wild vegetables from under the eaves and stuffing them into Huzi's hand. "We don't have anything good at home, take this back and make soup."

Aunt Zhang helped her take care of the children, and she was so grateful.

Since the two families had frequent interactions, Tiger didn't refuse, saying, "Sister-in-law, I'll head back now."

"to make……"

As soon as Yunlu finished speaking, Fatty pulled her into the main room. She looked outside and, seeing that no one was there, said excitedly, "Xia, I recently heard that Aunt Zhang wanted to make that white lotus flower her husband's wife, but then she changed her mind. Is that true?"

"Have……"

"What about Tiger? What's Tiger thinking?"

"Let go first." Yun Luo felt like her arm wasn't even hers anymore as she was being pulled. "Fatty, you're asking so many questions, do you have your eye on Tiger?"

Fatty nodded. She had only realized today that Tiger's nose was a nose and his eyebrows were eyebrows, which was really cool. She was quite fond of it. "What do you think?"

this……

From a man's perspective, Yunluo felt that Fatty was a bit disappointing.

"I'll go home right now and talk to my dad, and ask him to put in a good word for me!"

Fatty was rubbing her hands together, as if she was ready to consummate her marriage at any moment.

Yunlu quickly grabbed her excited expression. Based on the village head's past experience of proposing marriage to Fatty, there was a 99% chance of rejection. "Fatty, there's no rush. Let me ask you, if Tiger was about as fat as you, would you want him?"

Fatty fell silent, the light in her eyes dimming, like a deflated balloon. "You mean, Tiger doesn't like me?"

"No, it's just that when men look at a woman, the first thing they often see is her appearance. If you really have that in mind, why not spend some time getting to know Tiger and let him discover how good you are?"

"That's right, Yunluo, how come I didn't think of that? I'll go right now."

Yunlu watched her retreating figure and shook her head helplessly.

With her gone, the room became empty, and Yun Luo inexplicably thought of Qin Zheng.

He must have walked quite a distance by now. When he gets tired and eats the steamed buns and mushroom meat sauce that I made myself, will he think of me?

Yunlu sat for a while, then realized she was overthinking things, so she simply carried a bamboo basket and went to the back mountain to pick wild roses.

There are many wild roses on the back mountain, but they are inedible, and apart from pretty little girls, no one in the village is interested in them.

Picking roses wasn't tiring work, and Yunlu picked them quickly, soon filling a small half-basket.

The wild roses grew by the roadside, where anyone could see them. Zhu Cuihong and her husband Zheng Tianyi came down from the cornfield and spotted Yunluo squatting by the flower bushes.

"Tian Yi, look, isn't that Yun Luo?"

“Yes, why would she pick those flowers? They’re not edible or drinkable,” Zheng Tianyi said. “She’d be better off digging up some wild vegetables.”

Zhu Cuihong took it to heart.

"You don't know, last time she went into the mountains to collect a lot of herbs and made a lot of money from them. I reckon the flower and medicine shops probably want some too, otherwise why would she bother picking them?"

Her guess made Zheng Tianyi laugh. "Why don't you just go and ask?"

He was about to go over when Zhu Cuihong stopped him, saying, "Don't say anything later, I'll ask."

"to make!"

The couple approached, and Zheng Tianyi, being a good-natured man, greeted Yun Luo first when she didn't see him, "Yun Luo, picking flower petals?"

"Uncle Zheng, Aunt Zheng, you're back from the fields?" Yun Luo always judged based on the situation, not the person, and besides, Uncle Zheng and his wife Liu Mei were both very good people.

"Hey……"

Before Zheng Tianyi could finish speaking, Zhu Cuihong subtly pinched him, and he immediately put on a smiling face, "Yunluo, what are you picking these flower petals for? Are you buying them from the pharmacy in town?"

"No, I'm going to use it to make a few sachets for fun."

It wasn't a secret, and Yunlu didn't hide it.

To everyone's surprise, Zhu Cuihong's face stiffened, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes, but she quickly smiled again, "Really?"

"It's just making sachets. If you like them, Auntie, I'll give you one later!" Yun Luo found it funny; it seemed like she was being lied to.

Zheng Tianyi also felt that his wife was acting a bit strange today. What use would picking flowers be? "Yunluo, let's go back first!"

"Aunt and Uncle, please slow down!"

As the couple descended the mountain, Zhu Cuihong kept muttering to herself, unable to believe Yun Luo's words.

When they were almost at the edge of the village, she told Zheng Tianyi to go back first, saying she had something to do, and then she left in a hurry.

She didn't go anywhere else, just wandered around Yunluo's house until Yunluo returned. She leaned over the wall, peered at the person inside, took a winnowing basket, neatly spread out the flower petals, and finally covered them with a large winnowing basket, then left them to dry in the yard.

Besides wild roses, there was also a basket of mugwort. What else could it be but a pharmacy?

Hmph, you brat, trying to secretly earn money on your own? No way!

She secretly climbed down the wall, planning to call a few friends and make a fortune together; she absolutely couldn't let Yun Luo get away with it.

Yunluo, who came out of the house, had no idea what was happening outside.
