Chapter 118 Nothing to talk about
"Why build a warehouse? I'm going to return the land money to Hua Xiali now and ask her to demolish the warehouse. Tell her that no one in the village is worthy of her help." Huo Beixi retracted his cold gaze, turned around and left.
Several people hurriedly ran to Huo Beixi and kept apologizing, "Secretary Huo, we were wrong. We shouldn't have said anything about Hua Xiali. We will never say it again. Please, Secretary Huo, let us continue to make money with Hua Xiali!"
"We are the ones who are too talkative. We shouldn't have talked about Hua Xiali..." the man said, and slapped himself hard on the face.
"You can't eat with the bowl in your hands and curse your mother when you put it down." Huo Beixi glanced at them coldly, then left quickly. He returned to the team headquarters angrily, pulled out a chair, and sat down, making a loud noise throughout the office.
If there were other people in the office, they would definitely be frightened by Huo Beixi's expression at this moment, because his face had never been as dark as it was now.
Feeling that it was about time, Hua Xiali took Leng Yuye home. As expected, lunch was already ready: stewed chicken with potatoes, halogen, scrambled eggs with leeks, braised pork, steamed spareribs with rice flour, and another dish of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, exactly six dishes in total.
"I'm sorry to have made you spend so much money." Leng Yuye said embarrassedly as he looked at so many dishes on the table. If he had not agreed to stay for dinner, would they have not had to spend so much money?
But he wanted to stay for dinner, so he finally followed his heart.
"No, no, we always cook extra dishes for my elder sister and younger sister on weekends to supplement their nutrition. I can only say that you came at a coincidence. If you came on weekdays, we might not have such delicious dishes." Even if she spent money, it was not spent specifically for him, so he really had no need to feel guilty about anything.
"Leng Yuye, there is a bus going into the city after lunch. After lunch, I will take you to the bus stop." Hua Xiali told him this in advance so that he could be mentally prepared, lest he think she was chasing him away when she asked him to leave. After all, the departure time of this afternoon bus was quite early. If he didn't leave early and missed it, he would have to think of other ways.
"Comrade Leng just came to our house after taking a few hours' drive. He hasn't even had enough rest yet, but he has to rush back. It's too tiring. If he doesn't have work tomorrow, he can stay at our house for one night. We have many rooms, so it won't be a problem for him to stay overnight." said Hua's mother.
"Can I really stay here?" Leng Yuye looked at Hua's mother in surprise.
"Of course you can." Hua's mother nodded seriously, and then said to Hua Xiali, "Xiali, after dinner, make the bed for Comrade Leng so that he can have a good nap. He must be exhausted after taking such a long ride here this morning."
"Got it." Hua Xiali nodded. Leng Yuye was a guest in her house and had helped them a lot, so she would naturally arrange his affairs well.
If it weren't for Leng Yuye, they would not have been able to keep their wealth, and they would not even know the truth until their death, just like in her previous life, her mother had taken care of Hua Tiefeng for many years and exhausted her body. After Hua Tiefeng passed away, Hua's mother also passed away a few years later. She was not very old, and died before she was fifty years old.
Didn't she die unclearly in her previous life? She worked herself to death for such an unworthy person like Hua Tiefeng, but she didn't know that Hua Tiefeng was not worth it!
And there is Hua Xiali, who married herself just for the 300 yuan dowry and to make life a little easier for her family. If Hua Tiefeng had brought the money back, would she have done so much to herself?
Therefore, Leng Yuye can be regarded as a benefactor to their whole family, otherwise she would never know why Hua Tiefeng often had a cold face and cursed. It turned out that it was because he did not see his sweetheart and son. Because they were not the people and children he liked, he could vent his resentment endlessly.
They have been scolded and suffered in vain for several years. Before, they were sympathetic to his illness and they endured everything he said. If they had known it was because of something like this, they would have turned away. What was the point of being sympathetic? Why should they be scolded and suffered because of someone else?
After dinner, Hua Xiali cleaned up an empty room downstairs and asked Zhang Yongfeng to take down the single bamboo bed hanging on the wall. He then put bedding and sheets on it and brought a pillow over. In this way, a single bed was arranged.
"Leng Yuye, then you should have a good rest!" Hua Xiali brought Leng Yuye into the room.
"Thank you." Leng Yuye said with a smile.
Hua Xiali nodded and walked out of the room, closing the door. She turned around and took a deep breath. It was really awkward to entertain unfamiliar people because she didn't know what to say. It seemed that apart from her father's affairs, they had nothing to talk about.
After all, he was a doctor and she was just an ordinary freelancer, and there was really nothing good to talk about between them.
Hua Xiali didn't have to worry about the halogen business, so he went straight back to his room upstairs, sat on the bed, picked up the textbook and started reading. As he read, he felt sleepy, so he lay down and quickly fell asleep in the comfortable quilt.
When she woke up again, she was awakened by the sound of people talking downstairs. Hua Xiali heard her mother, Hua Chunli, and Hua Qiuli talking to Leng Yuye. She was afraid that they would make jokes that would make Leng Yuye uncomfortable, so she hurried downstairs. "What are you talking about? You look so happy?"
I didn't expect that Leng Yuye would get along well with her family. Capable people are different. They can handle everything with ease.
Leng Yuye stood up from the sofa in a hurry, feeling a little sorry, "Did we disturb you?"
"No, no, I woke up a long time ago. I was just reading a book upstairs!" Hua Xiali waved his hands hurriedly. Why does this guy always like to take the blame on himself?
Hearing this, Leng Yuye nodded with relief, then sat down again.
Hua Xiali went to make herself a cup of tea, then came over and sat down. She sat on a double-seater sofa, while the sofa against the wall in their house was for four people, and then there was a coffee table in the middle, with double-seaters on both sides. Rural families have more aunts and uncles, and they had quite a few relatives, so Hua Xiali bought a longer sofa, but even so, there was no room for everyone to sit during the New Year, so everyone could only sit on benches.
After drinking a few sips of tea, Hua Xiali became much more sober. Since sending Hua's father to Xie Yongfang, he was the only one left at home. Hua Xiali simply added some spiritual spring water to the well water so that the family members could regulate their bodies at any time.
