Chapter 309 Dream Girl
Zhang Weihong is a big mouth. She couldn't wait to tell everyone that Shen Zhixia had given her rice. She even said that the rice was very fragrant and delicious, which made Huo's mother very happy. She couldn't wait to go home and get some more rice for Zhang Weihong.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Weihong quickly refused, "No need, this is too much trouble."
That's why Mrs. Huo didn't go back.
Huo Xinran is doing quite well now. Before, when she was in the village, she was always arguing and fighting with people. Her clothes were tattered, and she was thin and pale.
I've gained a lot of weight, I'm wearing new clothes, my hair is styled, and I look much more energetic than before.
She used the money Cai Wenhua gave her to buy snacks or to pamper herself. Now, when she looks in the mirror, she is still very satisfied with her current appearance.
Life used to be so hard, now all that's left are sweet days.
She is still young and full of expectations for the future.
When Cai Wenhua returned, Huo Xinran was in a good mood and naturally greeted him.
Since Cai Wenhua still gives her money every month, she can't be too rude to her.
Cai Wenhua was not in a good mood. He frowned at Huo Xinran and said, "I heard that your mother brought a lot of rice from home. She distributed the rice to Shen Zhixia and Huo Chunyan, and even to other neighbors in the military dependents' compound. Why didn't she give any to you? You are her daughter, after all. Did she not think of you at all?"
Huo Xinran felt speechless. She had no idea what rice was or wasn't. Besides, it was Huo's mother's own choice to distribute the rice to whomever she wanted. What did it have to do with her?
It's just some rice, isn't it? She has plenty to eat and drink now, why would she care about that rice?
Cai Wenhua is always looking for trouble, but she says, "My mother asked me about this, and I didn't want it."
"Why don't you want it? Isn't that rice good enough? Besides, it's about social interaction. You can also maintain your relationship with your mother. If she gives you rice today, you can give her something in return tomorrow. If you keep in touch, won't your relationship with the Huo family be better?"
Cai Wenhua was truly disappointed in Huo Xinran. He discovered that since marrying him, Huo Xinran had basically stopped having any contact with the Huo family.
He married Huo Xinran while scheming against her. He thought he was finally going to make something of himself and could marry Huo Xinran's sister. He believed that he could then do whatever he wanted in the military, and with just a word from Huo Chenzhou, he would have a chance to be promoted.
Just thinking about it makes me feel like his future is secure.
Now he finds his life even more difficult. He has gone into debt to marry Huo Xinran. They have not only spent all their savings, but also borrowed money from relatives. Now his relatives are urging him to pay back the money, and his salary is simply not enough.
He also had to support his family and give money to Huo Xinran, so he was constantly struggling to make ends meet.
He would have been living a much more carefree life if he hadn't gotten married. This marriage really brought him nothing, but now that things have come to this, there's no turning back.
Huo Xinran didn't care what he was thinking. She smiled and said, "I've been eating the rice at home for many years. It tastes the same, and I don't like it. So even when my mom wants to give it to me, I don't want it. I think the rice here tastes better now."
She glanced at Cai Wenhua and said, "You don't understand, no matter how delicious something is, if you eat it for ten or twenty years, will you still find it delicious?"
Cai Wenhua was angry: "Is this about rice? This is clearly about dealing with the Huo family. Besides, even if you don't eat rice, you can give it to me. I love rice."
Huo Xinran said, "I only refused because I thought of you. I don't even like the rice I eat, how could I give it to you? What I want to give you is definitely the best."
Cai Wenhua: "Glib-tongued."
Huo Xinran is all talk and no action, but in reality, very few of her actions have made him feel comfortable. However, it must be said that Huo Xinran is really good at talking.
Cai Wenhua was indeed calmed down a lot, and he wasn't so angry anymore.
Huo Xinran thought the rice didn't taste good, so it must really be bad. Since it's not there, then it's not there.
He sighed and said, "Alright, let's forget about this time. But if your mom wants to give you anything next time, don't just refuse it on your own. You have to talk to me about it, okay?"
Huo Xinran smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely consult you next time. Your opinion is very important. I was negligent this time."
Cai Wenhua's expression improved considerably: "It's good that you know."
Seeing that Cai Wenhua was no longer angry, Huo Xinran couldn't help but smile inwardly. It was just a matter of saying nice things. If Cai Wenhua wanted to hear them, she could say anything. It was just a matter of moving her lips, so it was too easy.
She can say anything.
So the two made up again, and their relationship became very sweet.
Some things, as long as they are not exposed and the lie continues, can allow everyone to get along peacefully.
However, Mrs. Huo always seemed preoccupied, and when she wasn't so busy, she thought about going back to visit.
Shen Zhixia asked curiously, "Mom, are you feeling too tired, so you keep thinking about going back? If you feel tired, Shen Zhou and I are thinking of finding someone else to help."
They asked Huo's mother to take care of the child. Although they paid her a monthly wage, Huo's mother was getting old and they were worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it.
Seeing that the two children were still young and would need to be cared for for a while, Shen Zhixia wondered if she should hire someone.
However, even if you hire someone now, you can't be so blatant. So if you hire a nanny or something, that would be going against the grain, and you still have to be discreet about it.
Even if they look for someone, they'll just say it's a distant relative.
Mrs. Huo quickly said, "No, no, why invite someone? Even if you have money, you don't need to waste it. You already have children, and raising them will cost a lot of money. Don't waste money on something like this."
Huo Chenzhou said in a deep voice, "How can this be considered a waste? Zhixia and I have been discussing this for a while. If you feel tired, you can ask someone to help you."
"Not tired at all. We've gotten through the hardest part of raising the children. They're all grown up now and very obedient. They don't need anyone else to take care of them. I can manage on my own," said Mrs. Huo.
She was telling the truth. Now the two babies are very easy to take care of. They can eat and sleep on their own, and they can even say some simple words. They are really well-behaved.
This is the boy of her dreams.
Shen Zhixia said, "Then why do you always want to go back?"
