Hearing Hua Kai repeat what he said, Gu Lanyan sighed and said, "Sigh, I really didn't expect your second uncle to be so wicked. This is too wicked. He does things that harm others without benefiting himself. It's all thanks to Captain Ye. Director Gu is also Captain Ye's friend. Otherwise, he would have expelled you from school. Where would we go to complain?"
To reassure her parents, Hua Kai said, "Mom, we live in a society governed by law now, so don't worry."
Listening to what they were saying, Hua Wanjiang said quietly, "I'm such a wimp. Our family is so lucky to have your mother. I really have to change, or I'll still be bullied."
Hua Kai smiled as she listened to her father's words and said, "Dad, people naturally change when they have money and status. I'm thinking that when we have money next year, we can open a factory to make bean products. Our place is conveniently located, and there's plenty of room for future development."
Hua Wanjiang nodded firmly as he listened to his daughter's words: "Although I don't understand very well, I promise you, I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I promise I won't do anything you don't want me to do."
During the time Huakai has been here, she has also discovered that her mother is more independent and thoughtful, while her father may have been oppressed by his stepmother since childhood, so he is somewhat insecure. Fortunately, he is willing to change and knows right from wrong, which is a good thing.
She said, "Dad, you will be the luckiest person in our village in the future."
Hua Wanjiang smiled when he heard his daughter's words; his smile was especially sweet.
Gu Lanyan said to Hua Qingyang, "Qingyang, go and clear the dishes. The one who eats the most has to do more work. I'll take advantage of the daylight to finish hemming those pants."
Hua Qingyang looked at Hua Kai pleadingly: "Sister, help me."
Hua Kai also stood up to help tidy up: "I'm most afraid of my little brother acting cute with me. I eat a lot too, so I need to exercise."
Hua Qingyi also helped with the tidying up, saying, "My younger siblings are all doing the work, I can't just sit here."
Gu Lanyan looked at Hua Qingyang and said, "You have an older brother and sister to rely on."
While they were cleaning up the dishes, Hua Wanjiang went to tidy up the chores in the yard as well, since everyone in the house was there to do the work.
After washing the dishes, Hua Kai explained the designs of several clothes she had drawn at school to Gu Lanyan, telling her to try making them when she had time.
Before long, it got dark. The lights were turned on, and the family sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), chatting and laughing together. There was no happier time than this.
The next day, there was no market day at home. In the morning, Hua Wanjiang took Hua Qingyi to help a relative build a corn granary.
Gu Lanyan went to the Zhang family next door to ask Grandma Zhang for advice on making clothes.
After giving her younger brother some homework, Hua Kai went out of the room, stood outside the pigpen, and looked at the piglets.
She found this person to be really strange. In his previous life, he was always uninterested in anything and was always busy, finding it hard to stop and appreciate life. In this life, however, he found everything interesting and enjoyable.
"Flowers bloom." A voice that Flowers didn't like came from behind.
Hua Kai turned around: "Hua Lin, what are you doing here?"
Hua Lin approached Hua Kai and said, "Hua Kai, I've come to apologize to you."
Hua Kai looked at Hua Lin and laughed: "You're not here to apologize, you're here to be funny. Do you think I'll accept your apology?"
Hua Lin looked at Hua Kai with tears in her eyes, feeling very wronged: "Hua Kai, I know you won't believe anything I say, and I know you hate me, but..."
Before Hua Lin could finish speaking, Hua Kai said, "Since you already know, then don't say 'but,' I don't want to hear it."
Hua Lin reached out to pull Hua Kai: "Hua Kai, for the sake of our childhood friendship and how close we were when we were little, can you help me just this once? Just this once."
Hua Kai dodged Hua Lin's hand: "No, I have no feelings for you."
Hearing Hua Lin's voice, Hua Qingyang ran out and stood beside Hua Kai: "Sister, are you alright?"
Hua Kai smiled at her younger brother: "It's okay, go back to your room and study."
Hua Qingyang shook his head and remained standing beside Hua Kai.
Hua Lin awkwardly lowered her hand and said to Hua Kai again, "Hua Kai, I'm really begging you this once. You know what kind of person Wang Shengli is. Can you bear to watch me marry someone like that? You know Captain Ye. Please ask him to help me and let me break off this engagement. I promise I won't bother you anymore."
"I'm just a technician. If you want to break off the engagement, go talk to the Wang family. I have no obligation to get involved in this." Ye Yifan carried a cardboard box into the courtyard.
Today he was still wearing a white shirt, with the cuffs rolled up to reveal his muscular forearms, and black casual pants that made his legs look even longer. Although he was carrying a box, he walked with a steady gait. From any angle, his physique was impeccable.
When Hua Kai saw Ye Yifan carrying such a large box, she went over to greet him: "Captain Ye, what's this?"
Ye Yifan's gaze remained fixed on Hua Kai: "We're leaving next week. These papers and pens are all new; keep them for you."
"The painter is now mounting his work, and he really needs these paper and pens," Hua Kai said, "Great, Captain Ye, you really understand my needs." She then went to take the box.
Ye Yifan said to Hua Qingyang, "If there are men, why would we use women?"
Hua Qingyang had just heard Hua Kai mean that it was okay to accept it, so he ran over and said, "Let me take it, Captain Ye." As he spoke, he reached out to lift the box, but he didn't expect it to be so heavy, and his arms felt a little heavy: "So heavy."
Ye Yifan didn't completely let go: "I'll take it in for you."
Hua Qingyang shook his head: "No need, Captain Ye. You stay here and keep an eye on my sister so she doesn't get bullied. I can carry it myself."
After saying that, he picked up the box with a strong effort and walked into the house.
Ye Yifan walked up to Hua Kai and said, "Your brother is not bad."
Hua Kai smiled at Ye Yifan and said, "Of course, how could my brother be any worse?"
At this moment, Hua Lin looked at the handsome, dashing, and promising Ye Yifan and was so jealous that she wanted to kill him.
But she also knew that acting impulsively now would be useless, and she still had to call off the engagement.
Now her family is completely ignoring her opinions and is already making arrangements for the wedding next month. It's impossible for her family to return the betrothal gifts or cancel the wedding because everyone in the village knows that she and Wang Shengli were caught in bed together, and her family is afraid that if she cancels the engagement, she won't be able to get married again.
However, Hua Lin really didn't want to marry Wang Shengli, but she didn't dare to run away from home, so she thought of coming to Hua Kai. Hua Kai could persuade Ye Yifan, who had connections and money. As long as Ye Yifan could help, the matter could be settled. However, she didn't expect Ye Yifan to arrive at this time.
However, Hua Lin was not stupid, and she had a new plan in mind.
She looked at Huakai and forced out a few tears: "Huakai, we are cousins after all. You can't be so heartless, can you? No matter what happened in the past, we are still family. You can't be so cold-blooded, right? Captain Ye is willing to be your friend because of your good character. You're not the kind of person who doesn't care about family ties, are you?"
Hua Kai laughed when she heard this. "Trying to morally blackmail me? You're too naive."
