Chapter 321 Don't Blame Her
Zhang Yongfeng said, "We will share the money for building the house equally."
Hua Xiali nodded, "Okay."
After the fire was put out, only a frame of the old house remained. The floor inside the house was wet and in a mess. Hua Xiali carefully looked at all the people who came to help tonight and kept them in mind.
Except for my third and fourth uncles' families, I have already taught them the halogen business and they don't need to be repaid separately. However, I do need to thank the other families.
Hua Xiali thanked everyone and invited everyone to come over for lunch tomorrow at noon, because tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year and everyone is in the village paying New Year's greetings. There is no need to visit relatives and everyone is at home, otherwise it might not be possible to get everyone together later.
Fortunately, the things she kept for her family from the wholesale goods at the end of the year were separated and not all kept at Hua's mother's house. Some were placed at Huo Beixi's house and Hua Chunli's new home. Otherwise, there would be nothing left and even eating would become a problem.
Because she thought that during the Chinese New Year, she must have a meal at Hua Chunli's new home, so she just put the things directly at Hua Chunli's new home.
So we can still host two tables of people for dinner tomorrow.
After everyone left, Huo Beixi went to the yard to check to prevent the fire from re-igniting and affecting the neighbors. After a thorough inspection to make sure there were no hidden dangers, Huo Beixi walked back holding Hua Xiali's hand, "Didn't I tell you not to come? With me here, what are you worried about?"
"If it was someone else's house, I wouldn't have to come, but this is my own home. My mom and her family must have been frightened, so it's only right for me to come and take a look." Hua Xiali said, "Luckily, I built a house for my three sisters early on, otherwise we wouldn't know where to live if something like this happened."
"Don't I still have me? How could I let you without even a place to live?" Huo Beixi raised his lips and smiled.
In their previous life, they did live in his house. Su Siyun's family might have thought that they did it on purpose, so they burned down the house as well, wanting to move into Huo Beixi's house!
It’s funny when I think about it now.
The next morning, after having breakfast at home, Hua Xiali and Huo Beixi went to Hua Chunli's house, and they prepared lunch together.
Hua Xiali remembered who had come to help last night, so when everyone was visiting each other to wish each other a happy new year, he reminded them to come over for dinner after touring the village.
When getting the New Year's goods, Hua Xiali put a lot of things in Hua Chunli's house, so now there is no shortage of things for the New Year.
Hua Xiali asked Huo Beixi to move the dining table from her new house to Hua Chunli's house and place it in the spacious main room. They then set up two tables in the main room for lunch.
The temperature is only a few degrees now. If you eat out, the food will get cold quickly and you won’t be able to eat it at all, so you can only have a meal at home.
Everyone went directly to Third Uncle's yard to cook, because he had built a row of stoves in his yard for making brine, just like Hua Xiali's yard had been burned down, but Hua Xiali's yard had been burned down, so now they could only borrow Third Uncle's yard.
At noon, when almost everyone had arrived, they started eating right away. Although there was wine at home, Hua Xiali did not bring it out for everyone to drink. After all, they were drinking at her house, and if something bad happened, they could not take the responsibility, so they let everyone drink soda.
Even the drinks in her big restaurant don't include white wine, because some people go crazy when they drink too much, and she doesn't want anything bad to happen in her restaurant, so the drinks she sells are only freshly squeezed juice, soda, beer, wine, red wine... etc. In short, there is no white wine.
If you want to drink, just go to other hotels to eat, don't come to her restaurant.
Some people deliberately cause trouble when drunk, and once others hold them responsible, they say they were drunk and refuse to take responsibility. But she has to be responsible for her own big restaurant!
If anything happened to her restaurant, it would affect her reputation and fame, and then it would trigger a nationwide boycott, and her restaurant would no longer be able to operate.
So why would she destroy everything she had worked so hard to build just to satisfy those people's selfish desires?
These people helped their family, and Hua Xiali decided to give priority to these families when there was a need for help in the future.
Everyone was having a lively and noisy meal when there was a knock on the door, followed by Hua Ling's voice. It seemed that Hua Ling was planning to pester Huo Beixi.
"Don't worry about it, let her knock." Hua Xiali said coldly. If you want to cheat, just go out and find a man. Why come to Huo Beixi?
The knock on the door sounded again. "Huo Beixi, I work at the brothel too. You must make the decision for me. My man is a glutton, a whore, a gambler, and a slacker. He doesn't bring a penny home. He beats me when he drinks. I really can't live like this anymore. Huo Beixi, you must make the decision for me..."
Hua Ling knew that she couldn't see Huo Beixi, but as a villager, she asked Huo Beixi for help. Huo Beixi couldn't just ignore it. As long as they met more often, she didn't believe that Huo Beixi had no feelings for her.
She would not destroy Huo Beixi's marriage. She just wanted to get some benefits by hanging out with Huo Beixi!
Seeing the door open, Hua Ling showed a joyful expression on her face, but she saw her mother instead. The smile on Hua Ling's face immediately faded, "Aunt, why is it you?"
"What? You don't want to see me?" Hua's mother raised her eyebrows. "There is someone on duty at the brigade today. If you really want to find someone to make the decision for you, you can go to the brigade to find the person on duty. My son-in-law is not at work today and he is not dealing with anything. Oh, my son-in-law asked me to go to the brigade to help you report to the police and have your abusive husband arrested."
Hua's mother closed the gate and left.
Hua Ling wanted to push the door open, but it was locked from the inside. She was so angry that she stomped her feet and ran after Hua's mother. If she really made the call, her husband would probably kill her today.
Huo Beixi is not responsible at all. She is going to write a letter of complaint and put it in the mailbox. If she doesn't get it, Hua Xiali can forget about being happy forever.
Her goal is to sleep with Huo Beixi and let Huo Beixi support her. She is not competing with Hua Xiali. She does not believe that Huo Beixi can only have Hua Xiali as his woman for the rest of his life. Since she will give her to someone else, she might as well give her, his cousin, a chance. She will not encourage Huo Beixi to divorce. If it were someone else, Huo Beixi might really abandon Hua Xiali!
She was trying to stabilize Hua Xiali's marriage, but this was not allowed. So don't blame her for being rude.
Hua's mother came to the brigade headquarters and said to the deputy branch secretary on duty, "Deputy branch secretary, my niece Hua Ling wants the village to handle her case, saying that her husband is a drunkard, whoremonger and always beats her. You are on duty today, Huo Beixi asked you to handle Hua Ling's case."
