Chapter 250 How Have I Treated You Badly?

Hua Chunli's eyes turned red because of what Hua Xiali said, but she felt that Hua Xiali was right, so she nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll ask for it in a few years. By the way, what is the method you mentioned for making money?"

"Don't worry, I will discuss this with you and my brother-in-law in two days." Hua Xiali took a sip from the teacup and then asked, "Sister, what do you want to talk to me about today?"

Hua Chunli hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm going to take Dad to the hospital for acupuncture tomorrow..."

Although Hua Tiefeng was paralyzed in bed, he was well taken care of. He weighed about 140 to 150 kilograms, and they couldn't move him at all, so if they wanted to go to the hospital, Hua Xiali would still be needed.

"We won't go for now. We'll go when he realizes his mistake and takes us to heart." Hua Xiali said helplessly, "We were too nice to him in the past, but he doesn't have us in his heart at all. He only has others in his heart."

What's the point of taking him to the hospital? It can't cure him, it costs money, and it's extremely hard. They are so tired, but Hua Tiefeng is not grateful to them at all. Instead, he insults and resents them. I guess he thinks their existence prevents him and Xie Yongfang from being together?

Hua Chunli nodded, "Okay, then we won't go for now. We'll see when he'll be nicer to us. If he doesn't know he's wrong, we'll take care of him until he dies and not take care of anything else. We've exhausted ourselves, but I don't think he'll change his mind."

Hua Xiali reached out and patted Hua Chunli's shoulder. He really wanted to tell her that it was not their turn to take care of her in her old age, because Hua Tiefeng had a precious son, and Hua Tiefeng loved this son very much.

The matter of taking care of him in his old age is naturally his son's responsibility.

But as children, they can't just ignore everything, so they just need to take care of Hua Tiefeng and do their best. Some things can't be achieved by forcing them.

Take Hua Tiefeng's body for example. His body was completely disabled and could not be restored unless there was spiritual spring water. But if such a scumbag were to recover, Hua's mother would be entangled for the rest of her life.

Xie Yongfang doesn't really love him, and she can't possibly care about Hua Tiefeng. Hua Tiefeng will still have to come back to find his mother, just like Wang Liang came back to find Hua Xiali after he got cancer.

Men are all like this, they share happiness with their mistresses and let their wives bear the difficulties. Some men do not divorce, but live outside with their mistresses, and then come back to ask their wives to support them when they get old.

Hua Xiali didn't want her mother to encounter such a thing, so she wished that Hua Tiefeng would not exist in this world. But since he was alive, let him live well!

If you want them to show affection to you like before, forget it. They are only filial and don't show affection to you.

The water in the bay had dried up long ago, and the fish had also been sunburned, but the freshwater clams hid in the mud, so even if some had died from the sun, there were not that many.

The next morning, after having breakfast at home with Huo Beixi, Hua Xiali took his basket and went directly to the upstream of the bay. When he arrived at the edge of the bay, he saw some white clam shells that were sunburned and charred on the mud.

So Hua Xiali quickly went to the bamboo forest opposite and cut a bamboo, then squatted down and began to search on the dry riverbed. Where there were freshwater clams, there would be a hole, which clearly showed that there were freshwater clams inside.

So Hua Xiali used a bamboo to pry out the freshwater clams and put them in the basket. Now there was no space for the spiritual spring and no way to cheat, so he could only put the clams in the basket and then carry them back with great effort.

They had quite a lot of freshwater clams here, and soon filled up a basket. However, freshwater clams are very large, so there were only a few in a basket. Hua Xiali surrounded the basket with a piece of cloth.

Now that there is no spiritual spring water, it is not so easy to make money. She doesn't want others to take away her way of making money!

There are people among Huo Beixi's acquaintances who collect pearls. Although natural pearls are smaller, they can also be used as jewelry. As long as they can be exchanged for money, she doesn't care how much.

After returning home, Hua Xiali took out a wooden basin, then fetched water from the public well in front. He first washed the mud off the shells of the freshwater clams, and then placed the freshwater clams in the wooden basin and kept them in clean water.

The meat of the clam shells is also edible, so they are kept in clean water to allow them to spit out all the mud and sand. This way the meat can be eaten and the pearls can be exchanged for money.

Huo Beixi came back at noon and saw something soaking in a wooden basin in the yard. He was a little surprised, "Wife, what is that thing soaking in the basin?"

Hearing the word "wife", Hua Xiali felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect Huo Beixi to be able to call out these two words as if nothing had happened. Had he already practiced it thousands of times in his mind?

"This is a freshwater clam, a kind of freshwater shell. The meat inside is edible. After a few days, when they have spit out all the mud and sand, you can help me break it open and I will cook it then." Hua Xiali explained while serving rice.

"Okay." Huo Beixi took the spatula from Hua Xiali's hand and said, "Wait for me to come back and make lunch. If you're worried that it will be too late to eat, you can wash and prepare the vegetables first."

"You're very busy at work, how can I ask you to come back and cook!" Hua Xiali said deliberately. After they got together, Huo Beixi had always done more cooking, and she only cooked occasionally. She knew that this day would come late, but she didn't expect that just a few days after their marriage, Huo Beixi didn't want her to cook anymore.

Although he didn't say it, she knew that he must have liked her for a long time, but she didn't know when.

After all, he had only been working at the grassroots level in the countryside for more than a year. They were not familiar with each other before and had only spoken a few times. His attitude towards her was the same as that towards other villagers, so it was unknown when he started to like her.

"Are you feeling sorry for me? Then be nicer to me." Huo Beixi hugged Hua Xiali and kissed her deeply for a while before letting her go.

Hua Xiali leaned on his shoulder to adjust her breathing and pinched his arm. "When have I ever been bad to you? Although we just got married, I have been doing my best to be a good wife since the moment we got married. How have I ever been bad to you?"

"Then take a nap with me later." Huo Beixi leaned close to Hua Xiali's ear and whispered.

The hot breath hit her ears, making Hua Xiali feel tingling. She knew what Huo Beixi meant and nodded.

Newly married people always want to be intimate with each other, and so did she, so the two of them hit it off right away.

In the afternoon, after Huo Beixi went out to work, Hua Xiali locked the courtyard door and returned to his room to take a real nap. He had been making a lot of noise just now, and it was not a nap at all.
