Chapter 355
Even if she had met him, it was probably just a quick glance with Huo Beixi when she returned to her parents' home.
"Huo Beixi." Hua Xiali reached out and patted Huo Beixi's tombstone. "I had something to do yesterday and was not in the village, so I didn't come to see you. If I have something to deal with in the future, I will definitely inform you in advance and will never let you worry about me."
"Huo Beixi, I'm really looking forward to our next official meeting. I don't know what we will look like and how old we will be by then. I will definitely recognize you the first time, and I hope you can recognize me the first time. Don't make the mistake of recognizing someone else as me, otherwise I will never talk to you again..."
She was truly happy only when she faced Huo Beixi. Although she couldn't see him or touch him, she knew that he was there, which was the same as being with her.
And one day in the future, they will be reunited.
Hua Xiali talked for half an hour in front of Huo Beixi's tombstone, saying that the changes outside, the house prices, commodity prices, and the news made him feel like he had not left, as he knew everything.
When I got home, everyone in the family was busy preparing the pig offal.
When Hua's mother saw Hua Xiali coming back, she hurriedly said, "Xiali, you just had a long ride, go back to your room and have a good rest!"
"Okay, Mom." Hua Xiali nodded, and then said to Zhang Yongfeng, "Brother-in-law, I need two large water tanks. When can you bring them back for me?"
Zhang Yongfeng nodded, "Okay, don't worry!"
Afterwards, Hua Xiali returned to her room. Her room was at the back as usual. Looking back through the window, she seemed to see the tall figure of Huo Beixi standing by the well, looking at this side with a serious look.
In her previous two lives, she hoped that time could be longer and longer. But in this life, she hoped that time could go faster so that she could see Huo Beixi earlier.
I just don't know if they can continue to be together after seeing Huo Beixi again. After all, no one can guarantee anything about the future.
Hua Xiali had spiritual spring water. After she drank a cup of the spiritual spring water, she was resurrected with full blood. After that, she went to help in the kitchen. She also contributed to the salty taste. If she did nothing, she would still have to share the money!
This salty business was originally done by her and Hua Qiuli together, and now Zhang Yongfeng has been involved, which means that after deducting the capital and the remuneration paid to everyone, the remaining money will be divided equally among the three of them, which is roughly equivalent to being divided equally among the three sisters. Hua's mother, like the third and fourth aunts, only gets a salary.
But now that the third and fourth aunts are here to help, she really doesn't have to do anything. And while the brine is braising in the pot, no one has to do anything. It only needs to be cut and packaged after it's ready.
"Xia Li, you're staying at home all the time now, won't the Jian family say anything to you?" Hua's mother asked worriedly.
How can a married daughter stay in her parents' home forever? Hua Chunli was a live-in son-in-law, but Hua Xiali was not. He was the only son in the Jian family, so it was impossible for him to be a live-in son-in-law.
"It's okay, Mom. It's only five days a week. You're not at home every day. If the Jane family doesn't even agree to such a small thing, then I really have to reconsider this relationship!" Hua Xiali said lightly.
Her legs are on her body, so she can go wherever she wants. There is no way to restrict her personal freedom.
"What? You still want to divorce Jian Nan?" Hua's mother glanced at Hua Xiali with a cold arrow in her eyes.
Hua Xiali shrugged helplessly, "No."
Hua Xiali didn't want to talk about this with her mother anymore, so she took the basket and went out. This season was the season for eating bamboo shoots, and now she couldn't find anyone to help her break the bamboo shoots, so she could only break some by herself and see how things go later!
Knowing that the water upstream of the bay was quite deep, Hua Xiali crossed the river directly from the rocks downstream. When he reached the other side, he walked into the bamboo forest.
He did not walk directly upstream, but instead picked bamboo shoots whenever he saw them, walking forward as he did so. Every time he filled a basket, Hua Xiali would put the bamboo shoots into the space.
Breaking bamboo shoots is a very healing thing. The 'swishing' sound can make people forget their worries and put them in a good mood.
Hua Xiali had a very full meal at Jian's house in the morning, so he did not go home for lunch at noon. It was not until his stomach growled with hunger that he peeled the last basket of bamboo shoots and carried them back home.
Walking to the stone where everyone washed clothes, Hua Xiali released some spiritual spring water, then put the bamboo shoots in the basket into the space, and when the fish swam over, she directly caught the fish with the basket. She planned to raise fish, so she had to catch some fish to cultivate, and she also had to find a way to replace the rice fields in front of the house, so that it would be convenient for her to engage in aquaculture.
Some species of fish are about to lay eggs this season. She collects them and then raises them with spiritual spring water, and she can harvest a lot of small fish fry.
Hua Xiali suddenly remembered the heavy rain in two years. At that time, the rice fields in front of the house would be connected into a vast ocean, and all the fish would run away. So for the time being, he could not raise fish in the rice fields. He could only raise fish in large water tanks at home. After the plum rain season was over, he could raise fish in the rice fields.
Hua Xiali put the fish into the living room, leaving only two for dinner, and then went back with the basket. When he came to the tree that was covered with wood ears, he found that it was still covered with wood ears. Hua Xiali reached out and picked the wood ears off the tree, then put out the peeled bamboo shoots, and went back with the heavy basket.
After everyone went out to sell brines, Hua Xiali washed the bamboo shoots, blanched them, put them directly into the brining soup, and then put them on the stove to brine.
Bamboo shoots are delicious no matter how they are cooked, but they must be blanched and boiled for a few minutes first, otherwise they will taste bitter or astringent. This may be the reason why people don’t eat bamboo shoots!
The bamboo shoots were cooked on the stove, so Hua Xiali didn't have to worry about it. He spread the fungus on a winnowing basket and then put it in the yard to dry. It is safer to eat fungus after it is dried.
Then she processed the fish. She kept two grass carps. Although they were not too big, weighing only about two or three pounds, two pounds was enough for a meal for them all.
Hua Xiali cuts the grass carp into pieces, drains the water, deep- fries it in a pan until dry, then puts it back into the pan, adds seasonings and stir-fries evenly to make spicy fish cubes.
If you don't fry it, the fish will break apart easily.
When everyone came back from selling salty food in the evening, Zhang Yongfeng brought back a large water tank for Hua Xiali, "Xia Li, where do you put this large water tank?"
Hua Xiali pointed to the yard and said, "Let's put it by the well first. I still have to clean the big water tank tomorrow!"
