Chapter 20 Do You Have a Wife?
Hua Xiali opened his mouth, wanting to ask him something but unable to speak. Thinking that it was already quite late, it was time to let him go back to rest, Hua Xiali made up his mind and asked directly, "Do you have a wife?"
This question made Huo Beixi stunned, and then he said seriously, "No."
"Really?" Hua Xiali raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Trueer than real gold." Huo Beixi looked straight into her eyes from a distance of one meter. Under the dim moonlight, her eyes were as bright as stars in the night sky.
Hua Xiali recalled a sentence he had seen on the Internet in his previous life, which said that in a man's mind, a girlfriend, a fiancée, and a wife could be three different women. In other words, just because he didn't have a wife didn't mean he didn't have a girlfriend or a fiancée. So Hua Xiali changed his words and asked, "Do you have a woman?"
Hearing this question, Huo Beixi's breathing stagnated, and then he couldn't help but feel a little bit nervous, "From the heart to the body, there is nothing."
These words made Hua Xiali blush. Although she was only 19 years old now and had never been in love, she was married to Wang Liang in her previous life.
However, during the two or three years after Wang Liang got married, he rarely went home, and the two of them had no experience of sleeping in the same bed. Anyway, when the barefoot doctor felt her pulse and said that she was pregnant with her second child, Wang Liang packed up and ran away.
In the following decades, Hua Xiali never remarried and never had a boyfriend. She didn't know what it felt like to be pampered by a man and have a man to rely on.
But earning money to support two sons by herself is very tiring both mentally and physically, which is why she went to Huo Beixi's tombstone to complain.
Because if you always carry everything by yourself, sooner or later you will collapse.
If she breaks down, what will happen to her children?
Hua Xiali walked quickly to Huo Beixi, stuffed the flashlight into Huo Beixi's hand, turned around and ran quickly into his own yard. After locking the gate, he returned to his room.
Even lying in bed, she could feel her heart beating very fast and her head was like a mess. Only after drinking a glass of spiritual spring water did her mood calm down.
Hua Xiali found it very strange. Huo Beixi was obviously not married, so why did Hua Qingmei tell her that Huo Beixi was married? Why did she want to ruin Huo Beixi's reputation like this?
What kind of story is there between her and Huo Beixi that made Hua Qingmei come over early to give her such a vaccination and tell her to stay away from Huo Beixi?
"Hua Qingmei, who are you? What do you know?" Before going to bed, Hua Xiali couldn't help but ask towards the roof.
The next morning, Hua Xiali came to Hua's father's room and saw Hua's mother feeding him noodles. There was a towel around her neck with some fallen noodles on it.
Seeing his father unable to take care of himself, Hua Xiali's eyes quickly turned red with heartache. Afraid of affecting his parents' mood, Hua Xiali quickly turned around and walked out.
Wait a little longer. After Hua Qingmei gets married, she will start using the spiritual spring water on Hua's father. Even if it cannot make Hua's father recover to normal so quickly and live like a normal person, at least he can sit up and be able to take care of himself, so that her mother can feel more at ease.
"Xia Li." Zhang Yongfeng saw Hua Xia Li standing at the door and looked at her worriedly.
Hua Xiali wiped his eyes with his hand and sniffed, "Brother-in-law, I'm fine, you can go to work without worry! When I'm almost ready, you can resign."
Zhang Yongfeng nodded, took the dishes in his hands to the kitchen, and went to work at the brick factory.
Although the salary is not high, it is at least an income. Otherwise, the family’s daily life cannot be maintained, and Hua Qiuli still has to study.
"Second sister, are we going to take Dad to the hospital for acupuncture tomorrow?" Hua Qiuli asked.
Hua Xiali thought about it and it was true. In order to help Hua's father recover his health as soon as possible, they took Hua's father to the Traditional Chinese Medicine branch of the town's hospital and let the old Chinese doctor give Hua's father acupuncture treatment once every half a month. However, there has been no effect so far. But they cannot give up treatment. After all, there is hope only if treatment is given. If not treated, there is really no hope.
Even if she wanted to use the spiritual spring water on Hua's father, she couldn't stop the superficial treatment, otherwise it would be difficult to explain Hua's father's recovery to others.
"Mom and I will go tomorrow. You stay at home to look after the house and study hard. If we come back late in the afternoon, you should leave as soon as possible and don't wait for us and miss your way to school." After Hua Xiali finished speaking, he turned around and went to the kitchen to get breakfast. There was Chinese cabbage noodles in the pot.
The noodles are made from rice noodles at home in winter.
After her parents passed away in her previous life, she wanted this noodle very much, but no one in the countryside made this kind of handmade noodles anymore. Those sold outside were all made by machines, and the taste was different. Moreover, she couldn’t make it taste like her mother’s.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the village radio sounded, asking everyone to go to the sunning ground for a meeting ten minutes later.
Others may not know, but Hua Xiali knows that this is the day when Sun Ping’s matter will be made public.
Afterwards, everyone carried benches or chairs and rushed to the sun-drying field. The sun-drying field was in the center of the Huazhuang village, where there was a stage where meetings, performances, and movies were held.
"Xia Li." Hua Xia Li had just arrived at the sun-drying field when she heard someone calling her. She turned her head and saw Hua Si Nian, who lived next to the sun-drying field, waving at her!
So Hua Xiali carried a chair and walked over and sat next to Hua Si Nian. Later, Hua Si Nian's brother, cousin and cousin all sat over, and everyone started chatting animatedly.
She has a good relationship with Hua Si Nian, and according to the generation division in the village, she has to call Hua Si Nian's parents brother and sister-in-law, and Hua Si Nian has to call her aunt.
But this is just the division among the villagers. In fact, there is no blood relationship between the two families.
In the past few years, every family had many children. Hua Xiali's grandparents had five children in total, and Hua Si Nian's grandparents also had three children, all sons. Then the sons got married and had children. Now Hua Si Nian has five cousins in total.
However, in their previous lives, they all got married and were busy with their families and lives, and they all returned to the village at different times, so they had almost no chance to meet each other. As a result, when they met again later, Hua Xiali could not recognize them.
Especially when boys grow up and gain weight, if you don’t look carefully, you really can’t recognize them.
Almost everyone had arrived, and several village officials also walked up to the stage in the front and sat down. After Huo Beixi sat down, he looked seriously at the villagers who were chattering and talking to each other below, and patted the table with his hand, "Everyone, be quiet. I called you all here for a meeting today because I have something very serious to say."
