Chapter 16 The old house is on fire
Anyway, she would make the matter sound serious today, so that the Wang family and others would not dare to approach her again, let alone add insult to injury when their family was in a low period.
“We didn’t, we didn’t.” The Wang family members, who had always had a tough attitude, suddenly froze like soft eggs.
"They did." Zhang Yongfeng said loudly and seriously, "They said they would come to our house to smear our excrement and curse our family. Especially the eldest sister of the Wang family, who was the worst. She even said she would skin my sister alive."
Afterwards, the onlookers began to repeat what the Wang family had said. Hua Xiali had never thought that her mother had to endure so much insult when she was not back.
Hua Xiali reached out to hold her mother's arm, his eyes reddened, and he whispered, "Mom, if I had ignored Wang Liang at the beginning, you wouldn't have suffered such a great humiliation."
Hua's mother also held Hua Xiali's hand tightly, and said thankfully, "Mom is fine. But you, luckily you rejected Wang Liang, otherwise Mom would have hurt you badly!"
At first, she did think that Hua Xiali would be able to help the family if she married Wang Liang because Wang Liang's home was close, and she even persuaded Hua Xiali to choose Wang Liang!
Now I realize what worthless Wang Liang and the Wang family are.
Hua Xiali forced back her tears, feeling choked with pain. Wasn't she badly hurt in her previous life? But she wouldn't blame them for persuading her to choose to marry Wang Liang, because if they hadn't persuaded her to choose Wang Liang, they would have persuaded her to marry Ding Yong. After all, their family was a pit of fire. It was said that matchmakers were unwilling to come to their house. Since there were two young men willing to marry her, their family was afraid that she would not be able to marry, so they would naturally seize these two only opportunities.
But who could know what kind of life she would lead if she married Ding Yong?
She didn't blame anyone but herself. She didn't think things through and didn't know what love was. She just got married in a daze. She made a mistake by marrying Wang Liang in her previous life. She didn't want to try with Ding Yong again in this life, even though Ding Yong was a good person and even though Ding Yong might make her happy, she only wanted to stay with her family in this life.
The incident of the Wang family coming to cause trouble was not a big deal, because they did not cause any substantial harm, they just made the Hua family feel wronged. There was no reasonable reason to punish them, so the public security comrades asked them to reconcile.
Such a good ladder had been built, and Hua Xiali naturally didn't want to miss it.
You want to reconcile? Sure. Then take 500 yuan and write a guarantee that you will not tell anyone about the Hua family and her affairs, and you must also sincerely apologize to the Hua family in front of everyone.
The Wang family didn't understand the law and were scared to death, thinking they were going to go to jail. Now they saw that for 500 yuan they could get the Hua family to forgive them and they wouldn't have to go to jail, so they naturally agreed in a hurry.
First, he bowed and apologized to the Hua family in front of everyone, then he signed and sealed the letter of guarantee written by the public security comrades, and then, accompanied by the public security comrades, he went home to get the money, and then, in front of everyone, he solemnly handed 500 yuan to Hua's mother.
The farce ended just like that, and the crowd dispersed and went home. Huo Beixi got into the police car and left with them. Hua Xiali didn't even have the chance to say thank you.
The Public Security Bureau's car drove to the outside of the brigade headquarters. After it stopped, the co-driver turned around and looked at Huo Beixi, jokingly saying, "I really didn't expect this, Huo Beixi."
"What didn't you think of?" Huo Beixi looked out the window without even glancing at him.
"The Huo Beixi I know is not the kind of person who would meddle in other people's business, especially things like this." The man looked at Huo Beixi with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"They are my villagers. I am the village party secretary and this is my duty." Huo Beixi said seriously.
"I think it's your villager, right?" The man said, and then he chuckled, "The old house is on fire, you must cheer us up so that we can drink your wedding wine as soon as possible."
Huo Beixi got out of the car and slammed the door and left.
Old house?
He is only 29 years old, how come he has become an old house?
The comrade who was driving couldn't help but burst into laughter. After a while, he calmed down and drove away, raising a cloud of dust.
After everyone left, Hua's mother handed the 500 yuan compensation from the Wang family to Hua Xiali, "Xia Li, you work hard outside, so I'll give you this money!"
"Mom, I do need money for something later, so I'll keep this money." Hua Xiali took the money and put it in his pocket.
"Brother-in-law, you can quit after this month and then come and make money with me. I believe that with our efforts, we can definitely earn much more than you do in the brick factory." The salary outside is around two or three hundred, but in the brick factory, you can only make about one hundred after working very hard. Working in a brick factory is just a waste of time.
There was no way before, but now that Hua Xiali has a way to make money, she definitely can't let her brother-in-law continue to waste time in the brick factory.
In this life, she wanted her sister and brother-in-law to live together forever. She didn't want to see her brother-in-law die young and leave her sister alone.
Zhang Yongfeng nodded, "Okay, I'll finish this month then."
"By the way, brother-in-law, is everything okay with my sister's registration at school? Was everything going well?" Thinking of Hua Chunli, Hua Xiali asked anxiously.
"It's fine. The registration went smoothly and the principal arranged her to a refresher class." Zhang Yongfeng said.
Hua Chunli is indeed older than her classmates and she is also married. It is not appropriate for her to sit with a group of 17 or 18-year-olds. Those people might even affect her mood and thus affect her college entrance examination results.
But it’s different in the repeater class, as everyone is a little older, and some have even repeated for several years, so naturally no one uses age as an issue.
"Brother-in-law, what do you think about my sister going back to school, taking the college entrance examination, and going to college in the future? Do you really support her?"
Hua Xiali was also afraid that Zhang Yongfeng would feel unbalanced. After all, when Hua Chunli was admitted to university, the gap between them would be widened. At that time, it would mainly depend on whether her elder sister had a conscience, because her elder sister's husband would never abandon her.
"Of course I mean it. We are husband and wife. If she is good, I can also benefit from it, right?" Zhang Yongfeng looked at Hua's mother, then at Hua Xiali, and said seriously, "When I registered for high school and paid tuition, I was short of ten yuan. It was Chunli who lent me ten yuan, so I was able to pay the tuition. At that time, I secretly made up my mind to protect Chunli for the rest of my life. If Chunli really becomes rich in the future and doesn't want me anymore, as long as Mom doesn't abandon me and let me continue to be her son, it's fine."
