Chapter 317 New Year's Day

But now she is fine, and the whole family is fine. We can live together for decades to come, and we can live a good life for decades to come. By then, we will have enough delicious food to eat.

"Mom, is the roast meat ready?" Hua Xiali ran into the kitchen impatiently and asked anxiously.

"How can it be that fast? How long have you been putting up the couplets? How long has my meat been in the pot?" Mother Hua used a spatula to stir the iron pot for a while, then covered the pot and wiped the water off her hands on her apron. "Yongfeng, go and take out the things for the grave and organize them. In the afternoon, go with your third uncle and the others to pay respects to Grandpa Chunli and Grandma."

Even though they don't like them and even though they are divorced, they still have to put on a show of being together, otherwise the people in the village will talk them to death again.

"Okay, I understand, Mom." Zhang Yongfeng nodded and went to the utility room to get out the things needed for the burial.

Speaking of visiting the grave, Hua Xiali couldn't help but look sideways at Huo Beixi. She also visited Huo Beixi in her second life, and as time went by, she developed a dependence on him. She thought that she must have visited the grave too many times and then developed feelings for Huo Beixi.

Huo Beixi reached out and touched Hua Xiali's hair, wondering if he was remembering the scene in his dreams where Hua Xiali went to bury him every year.

"Mom, let's go back first and come over to help later." Hua Xiali took Huo Beixi's hand and went out directly through the back door.

After returning home, Hua Xiali sat on the edge of the bed, took out the red envelopes and money, and began to count them. Each of her cousins ​​got twenty yuan. In this era when a few yuan as an annual allowance for children was considered a lot, her twenty yuan was definitely not a small amount.

Afterwards, she packed New Year's money for her family. She put 200 yuan in each of the New Year's money bags for Hua Chunli, Zhang Yongfeng, Hua's mother, and Hua Qiuli. She also secretly put 1,000 yuan in the New Year's money bag for her beloved husband Huo Beixi.

They are your closest relatives, so naturally they cannot be treated the same as your close relatives.

After Hua Xiali packed all the red envelopes, he put the ones for relatives in his own clothes and the ones for his own family in Huo Beixi's pocket. This opportunity to show off naturally went to Huo Beixi, which would also bring him closer to all family members.

Finally, Hua Xiali handed the New Year's gift package containing 1,000 yuan to Huo Beixi and said with a smile, "Huo Beixi, this is the New Year's gift for you. You have worked hard this year. Happy New Year."

When she was not satisfied, she would never call him "husband", because Huo Beixi would easily go crazy when he heard those two words.

Although there is a lot of money in the drawer at home for daily household expenses, Huo Beixi is not short of money on weekdays, but now it is the New Year, and he still has to give when the time comes.

"Thank you, my wife." Huo Beixi took the New Year's gift bag that Hua Xiali handed over to him, then hugged Hua Xiali and kissed her. Hua Xiali shyly reached out and pushed him away.

Although she has been married for more than a year, she still feels shy every time she does this.

Then Huo Beixi also took out a box and handed it to Hua Xiali, "Wife, Happy New Year."

As soon as she saw the box, Hua Xiali knew that it was definitely not just a simple New Year's gift. When she opened it, she found that it was indeed a set of gold jewelry.

Gold necklace, gold earrings, gold bracelets, gold necklaces, gold rings...

A complete set of pure gold.

I guess he saw her buying so many gold bars at the bank and thought she particularly liked gold bars, so he bought her so many gold jewellery!

In fact, she bought the gold bars not because she liked gold, but because she was making plans for her future children. When the children grow up, she can give them the gold bars as a start-up fund.

Hua Chunli got pregnant at the same time as in her previous life, so it should be the same for her. It is already February now, so she should be pregnant as well, but it hasn't been that long yet, so she has no reaction yet.

She remembered that in her previous life, she couldn't stand the smell of anything fishy, ​​even if there was a little bit of lard in the stir-fried vegetables. But there were too many things going on, and she couldn't remember exactly how many days into her pregnancy this happened, but it should have been soon.

Although this money was taken from the drawer at home, it was also a token of his good intention. You know, many people would take this money for themselves.

Young people think gold is tacky and prefer diamonds and platinum, but Hua Xiali doesn't think so. She thinks glittering gold is the most beautiful.

She took off her gold necklace and gold earrings and let Huo Beixi put them on her. Then she put on the gold bracelet and gold ring. These were gifts from her husband and she couldn't let them down.

However, Hua Xiali didn't dare to wear it outside, as she was afraid of being robbed in the street, so she only wore it at home. Not showing off her wealth was a kind of protection for herself.

Anyway, she doesn't understand those who show off their wealth. It's as if they want the whole world to know that they are rich. The more people know, the more dangers there will be.

Hua Xiali leaned into Huo Beixi's arms, took his big hand and placed it on her belly, and said softly, "Beixi, I feel like I'm pregnant. We should have a child."

"Really?" Huo Beixi was extremely excited.

As a man who is about to turn 31, there should be no one who does not look forward to having children. However, not everyone has such a strong desire to continue the family line, so he will not force it if he does not have children. But if he has children, it will naturally make their small family more complete.

Seeing Huo Beixi's happy look, Hua Xiali was also very happy. She reached out and touched Huo Beixi's handsome face and said, "Probably, because I feel my stomach is a little bloated, which is different from usual."

"Bloated?" Huo Beixi raised his eyebrows worriedly, "Does it hurt?"

Hua Xiali shook her head. "It's not painful. If I were, would I still be able to lean on your arms like this? Then I would have told you a long time ago!"

"Then let's go to the hospital for a check-up, otherwise I'll be worried." Pregnancy is no small matter.

When Huo Beixi was about to get up, Hua Xiali hurriedly stopped him and said, "It's Chinese New Year now, there aren't many people in the hospital, it's useless to go, wait until after the Chinese New Year!"

In the afternoon, the two of them packed up and went to the front to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.

When they arrived, Hua Chunli was already sitting at the table drinking chicken soup with a big chicken drumstick in the bowl. This chicken soup was simmered by Hua's mother in a clay pot on the stove over low heat, and was different from the meat stewed in the pot in the morning.

Although the meat stewed in the pot included ribs, pig's trotters and chicken, the chicken soup that Hua Chunli drank first was stewed in a stove.
