Chapter 303: It feels really good to be relied upon
"Huo Beixi, when you have a weekend off, let's go to Baibao County together!" Hua Xiali remembered that Grandpa Fang died before she gave birth. In her previous life, she seemed to have given birth in October of 1992, so Grandpa Fang should have died in September, right? In other words, Grandpa Fang's life span was less than a year, and she had to go to help Grandpa Fang make up for his regrets.
Besides, now that she is rich, it is not a problem for her to buy back the entire Stone Village.
All in all, she still has a lot to do next.
"Is one day enough?" Huo Beixi asked.
When he was busy with the wood ear cultivation greenhouse, he did not rest for a long time and his holidays were all saved there. If one day was not enough, he would take another day off and let others take over.
Hua Xiali nodded repeatedly, "That's enough, didn't we go there last time? It's not too far away, just next to the county town! And this time we're riding motorcycles, so it's naturally faster than before."
After dinner, Hua Xiali made himself a cup of hot green tea and drank it while admiring Huo Beixi washing pots and dishes. It seemed so inappropriate for a man of god-like status to stand in front of a rural earthen stove and wash pots and dishes, but he had to do it.
After all, she didn't want to take on all the household chores. A family is for two people, and it would be so hard for only one person to do all the work! So she cooked, and wasn't it right for Huo Beixi to wash the pots and dishes?
Before you feel sorry for a man, you should also feel sorry for yourself!
After all, she wasn't playing!
After Huo Beixi finished cleaning up, the two of them went back to the room for a nap. Taking a nap had become a habit for them. Even though it was not summer, they were still used to taking a nap. If they didn't rest for a while at noon, they would feel like they had no energy in the afternoon.
In order to make it easier for Hua Xiali to get the review materials on the bedside table, Hua Xiali let Huo Beixi sleep in the middle of the bed. Huo Beixi put his arms around Hua Xiali's waist and leaned on her.
Hua Xiali started to feel sleepy after reading for a while. She looked down at Huo Beixi who was leaning on her. Seeing his tightly closed eyes and slightly trembling long eyelashes, her heart softened. The feeling of being depended on was really good. Huo Beixi must also hope that she could depend on him like this!
Hua Xiali put down the book in his hand, then lay down, kissed Huo Beixi on the forehead, and said to himself, "Huo Beixi, I hope we can live a long life this time. Even if we can't live a long life, we can be buried together after death. I won't let you face the endless darkness alone..."
After Huo Beixi's death, he was hastily buried in the cemetery in Huazhuang because he had no family. But now it is different. He has a wife, a mother-in-law, and his wife's elder sister and younger sister. With so many people, someone will definitely bury them together.
When Huo Beixi was resting, Hua Xiali went to the front early to feed the poultry. She also packed two new quilts, a bed sheet, a washbasin, towel, toothbrush, toothpaste and other daily necessities for Mr. Fang.
These were all left over from when she went to wholesale student accommodation supplies. No matter what she did, she would always prepare some things for her family. Aren’t they coming in handy now?
In addition, Hua Xiali also packed some seasonings and added a little spiritual spring water into the seasonings. Although the spiritual spring water could not change Mr. Fang's fate or prevent his death, it could at least relieve his physical headache.
Mr. Fang's leg problem was probably caused by an injury his wife suffered while hunting when she was pregnant. If that incident had not happened, his wife would not have had a miscarriage, which led to a difficult delivery.
After Hua Xiali had packed up, Huo Beixi tied all the things on the motorcycle.
In fact, the motorcycle was quite high, and one needed to lift their legs high to step onto it, so Huo Beixi didn't bother her. He directly carried Hua Xiali onto the motorcycle, and then rode away on the motorcycle.
Hua Xiali hugged Huo Beixi's waist tightly with her cheek against his back. She always felt like she was in her previous life, because in her previous life, after they bought a motorcycle, they rode the motorcycle to Baibao County again and again.
So Hua Xiali is a little dazed now. She doesn't even know whether she is in the third life or the second life.
In her previous life, she would become pregnant at the beginning of the new year, and Grandpa Fang would die before she gave birth. She and Huo Beixi would bury Grandpa Fang and Grandma Mo together. Then she would give birth to the child in October, and it would be November when she came out of the confinement period. It was in November that Hua Qingmei sent her back to the second life with a single knife.
I don’t know how it will develop this time.
She really hoped to live with Huo Beixi forever, or for a few more years. She didn't want to be together for just a few short years and then separate for various other reasons.
With a motorcycle, they could go very fast and soon arrived at the mountains of Baibao County. When they reached a place where the motorcycle could not go forward, Huo Beixi parked the motorcycle and then he and Hua Xiali carried the things and walked inside.
When they arrived at Grandpa Fang's house, Grandpa Fang was eating from a bowl. Hua Xiali took a look into the bowl and was surprised to see that it contained only rice and flour.
Hua Xiali asked curiously, "Master Fang, are you having breakfast or lunch?"
It's too early to have lunch at this time, and too late to have breakfast.
Grandpa Fang smiled kindly, "I wasn't hungry this morning, so I didn't eat anything. I only cooked some noodles now that I'm hungry."
"Master Fang, we brought you some food and daily necessities. You must eat them and don't waste them, okay? Otherwise it would be a pity." Hua Xiali and Huo Beixi put the things they brought on the floor of Master Fang's house.
Although the ground at Mr. Fang's house was muddy, it was very compact, so it was okay to put the things on the ground since they were all packaged outside.
"Thank you both." Mr. Fang said gratefully. He didn't expect that at his age, he could still make two such kind-hearted friends.
"Master Fang, the last time we came here, we found that the houses in this village were well preserved, and there were no weeds growing in the vacant courtyards. It looked as if someone was living here." Although he knew the answer, Hua Xiali couldn't help but ask again.
In fact, it only takes ten years for a village to become desolate and dilapidated, with collapsed walls and houses and overgrown weeds after being abandoned. But here, you can't see any of that at all. You can tell at a glance that someone has taken good care of it.
Every household has moved away to the new village at the foot of the mountain. Even the land has been abandoned. Who will come back to take care of the vacant courtyards?
"After everyone moved away, the houses here were no longer needed, so the doors were not locked. When I wasn't farming, I had nothing to do, so I cleaned up the yard and repaired the houses for everyone..." When Grandpa Fang talked about the past, his eyes were full of kindness, as if he was trapped in endless beautiful memories...
