Chapter 262 She Wants Huo Beixi
At night, Zhang Yongfeng heard a knock on the door, so he got up, put on his clothes and went out to open the door. He saw Hua Xiali standing at the gate with a cart full of big fish. Zhang Yongfeng was shocked, "Xiali, where did you get so many fish?"
"In the ditch." Hua Xiali babbled. "When I was selling salt, I saw a ditch full of fish. I thought the water would dry up immediately and all the fish would die, so I 'saved' the fish. The people here are really strange. They don't even eat the fish. So what do they want to eat?"
"It's because I don't have the skills. Otherwise, why wouldn't I eat it? Even a mosquito is meat, not to mention fish!" Zhang Yongfeng quickly pushed the wooden cart into the yard and locked the gate. "Xia Li, you have good skills, and the fish you make must be delicious. I'm looking forward to it now."
Hua Xiali smiled helplessly, "Okay, as long as you prepare the fish well, I will cook fish for you."
Hua Chunli was awakened by their noises, so he put on his clothes and went out to check the situation. He was shocked to see the big fish. Some of the fish were bigger than children of several years old. It can be seen how exaggerated it was.
Everyone carried the fish to the kitchen together, then found a wooden basin and took a few old pots from the backyard, and then put the fish in it. Hua Xiali quietly added a few drops of spiritual spring water to the water. It was so late, and Zhang Yongfeng did not go to the backyard to fetch water, but fetched water from his own well. There was no spiritual spring water here, so she needed to add a little spiritual spring water separately.
As soon as the spiritual spring water was added, the fish became active, and the smaller ones swam freely in the water, but the big fish weighing dozens of kilograms could not swim because the basin or tank was too small.
Hua Xiali told Zhang Yongfeng and Hua Chunli to keep an eye on the fish and not let outsiders see it, and then went home.
If I go home earlier tonight, I can rest earlier.
After falling asleep, Hua Xiali leaned in Huo Beixi's arms, and her soft and boneless little hands gently stroked Huo Beixi's face, neck, and chest muscles... Huo Beixi reached out and pressed her fiery little hand, looking down at her, "You have worked hard these days, have a good rest, and when I am free, I will give you good things."
"But I'm full of energy and my blood is boiling. I can't sleep at all. Do you want to see me sleepless all night?" Before she had the spiritual spring water, her physical condition was indeed average, but now her body has been adjusted to the best condition. Although she has been busy outside for so long, she doesn't feel tired at all.
She believed that Huo Beixi must be the same with the nourishment of the spiritual spring water.
It was just that because she came back too late at night, he couldn't bear it and was reluctant to leave. After all, in his eyes, she must have been very hard-working.
Huo Beixi swallowed his saliva and immediately grabbed Hua Xiali and said, "In that case, I won't be polite..."
The next morning, when Hua Xiali woke up, she saw a new set of clothes stacked on the pillow next to her. Hua Xiali picked up the clothes curiously. They were quite nice and suited her cool temperament. She knew at a glance that they were prepared for her.
She is a serious person, cold and aloof. When she was in school, her classmates called her "Cold Beauty". However, after experiencing too many complicated stories, she has changed a lot and is no longer as cold and aloof as she was in school.
It's the end of the year now, and Huo Beixi often goes to town for meetings. Hua Xiali is very happy to think that he will carefully prepare gifts for her after he finishes work.
Isn't it worth being happy to be cared about by others?
Because she had to go out to work, Hua Xiali was afraid that her new clothes would get dirty, so she hung them in the closet and went out wearing her old clothes.
After returning to the house in front, Hua Xiali asked Zhang Yongfeng to help her process the biggest fish. She was going to prepare a fish feast for everyone at noon today.
This big fish weighs nearly 50 kilograms. The meat was processed and filled into several basins. This basin is an enamel basin for washing face. It is quite big!
When Huo Beixi came back to cook at noon, Hua Xiali called him over to eat with Hua's mother. Looking at the various ways of cooking fish on the table, Huo Beixi was amazed. He didn't expect that fish could be cooked in so many ways.
Hua Xiali knew that Huo Beixi couldn't eat spicy food, so he planned to give him some salted fish slices. However, he didn't expect Huo Beixi to directly reach out his chopsticks towards the spicy fish hot pot, and even put a large piece of it into the bowl and slowly started to eat.
Hua Xiali stood up in surprise, "Huo Beixi, can you eat spicy food?"
She clearly remembered that he couldn't eat spicy food, so she wouldn't even put any chili in the fishy freshwater clams he was eating. Yet, he ate such a spicy fish hotpot today.
Could it be that he was kidnapped by an outsider like Hua Qingmei?
What she wants is Huo Beixi, not anyone else.
Huo Beixi looked at Hua Xiali suspiciously and said puzzledly, "I can't eat spicy food very well, and I rarely eat spicy food. I just wanted to try it today. I even prepared tea. If you can't bear it later, you can drink more tea."
Hua Xiali looked down and saw that his cup was indeed full of green tea, and the tea leaves had sunk to the bottom of the cup. This meant that the tea had been brewed for a while and was no longer hot. Seeing that he had not been traveled through time by anyone, Hua Xiali felt relieved.
If Huo Beixi was betrayed by someone, then to her, Huo Beixi would be an empty shell and would have no meaning to her. After all, he was no longer the person she loved, so how could they be together?
Fortunately, he is still Huo Beixi.
The relief on Hua Xiali's face did not escape Huo Beixi's eyes. Huo Beixi didn't understand what she was relieved about, but now in front of everyone, he didn't dare to ask anything.
There was no way five people could finish all the fish, so they ate as much as they could and put the rest in the cupboard for dinner in the evening.
Time passed day by day, and everyone was busy day by day. Soon it was a few days before the New Year. They had been selling salt for a month and a half. Except for the first day when they only made one hundred yuan, they made about two hundred yuan every other day. Because the amount of pig offal wholesaled every day was the same, the income was naturally similar.
Hua Xiali and the others took the time to count the money, and found that there was exactly 9,000 yuan. After paying off the debt, there would still be more than 2,000 yuan left. However, Hua Xiali had no plans to pay it back now. She had agreed with everyone that after Hua Chunli took the college entrance examination and received the acceptance letter, they would hold a graduation banquet for her to celebrate. Then she would find an excuse to pay off the debt.
Otherwise, if they paid off the debt in a short time, others would definitely be suspicious of them. If they paid off the foreign debt of more than 6,000 in a year, it would mean that their monthly income was more than 600. The salary of people in the city is generally around 100 or 200. As a result, their monthly income is three times that of others. How could others not be suspicious?
