Chapter 39: Family members don’t talk behind each other’s backs

She has earned more than 700 yuan by setting up the stall by herself these few days, but it is all scattered money, and it is too troublesome to count it. Hua Xiali planned to go to the bank to apply for a bank card and deposit the money into it. However, when she got to the bank, she remembered that the bank was closed for the holiday today, so she had to put the matter aside and come back to apply for a bank card in two days.

Although bank cards were not yet popular at that time, all major banks had issued the first generation of bank cards, but not many people came to apply for them! Not only did she want to apply for a bank card, she also wanted to apply for a bank card from every bank, but she didn't know if she had that much money to save.

It was almost noon when Hua Xiali returned to the stall and saw Zhang Yongfeng and Hua Qiuli were busy. He did not go to disturb them, but went directly to the school to find Hua Chunli.

After Hua Chunli came out of the dormitory, Hua Xiali handed his water cup to Hua Chunli. After Hua Chunli took the cup, he took Hua Xiali's arm, and the two walked towards the school gate together.

"Xia Li, where are we going now?" Hua Chunli asked.

"We will have to wear short-sleeved shirts soon, but the ones we wore before have turned white after washing. They are fine for wearing at home, but it will inevitably cause people to laugh if we wear them outside. Let's go to the tailor shop across from the school and ask the tailor to cut some cloth for us to make some clothes. When we close the shop in the evening, I will bring my brother-in-law and Qiuli to make clothes for us."

Although she has already made a lot of money and will be able to make more money in the future, she is still willing to buy ready-made clothes for dozens of yuan each.

Hua Chunli looked a little embarrassed. Hua Xiali knew that she was worried about money, so she said quickly, "Sister, I can earn more than 100 yuan a day on average now. Making a few sets of clothes won't affect anything. Besides, you are going to college soon. Do you want to wear your old clothes to go to college?"

Afterwards, the two of them went to the tailor shop. Hua Xiali didn't like fancy clothes, so she chose three colors, navy blue, dark blue, and dark green, which were three sets of summer clothes.

Because she had to set up a stall and was surrounded by smoke and oil all day long, she had to wear dark clothes to avoid looking dirty and greasy.

For the flower spring gift, choose light blue and pink floral patterns. The pink one is made into a long skirt, and the light blue one is made into a short-sleeved and cropped pants suit. The flowers are white daisies, which looks very fresh and girly.

"Xia Li, thank you." Seeing Hua Xia Li paying without blinking, Hua Chunli couldn't help but say, although setting up a stall makes a lot of money, it's hard work!

Hua Chunli felt sorry for Hua Xiali, as she had to push the things from the countryside to the town, and had to walk back so late every night. In fact, she, as the elder sister, should have taken on all of this, after all, she had stayed at home to marry a live-in son-in-law, and her parents were also her responsibility. But now Hua Xiali had taken on all of this for her, allowing her to return to school.

"Sister, when you become successful in the future, just don't forget me." Although it is said that family members should not talk behind each other's backs, Hua Xiali didn't want to work so hard only to find no one remembering her kindness.

Of course, she doesn't expect any reward, just don't erase her contribution and don't forget her dedication to everyone.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Hua Xiali went to the stall and replaced Zhang Yongfeng, letting Zhang Yongfeng eat with Hua Chunli. After all, they were husband and wife.

Hua Chunli has not returned home since she returned to campus. The two of them went from being together day and night to living apart. They must be unable to adapt, right?

So we still need to give them more time to spend together.

After Zhang Yongfeng and Hua Chunli finished their meal and came back to take over their shift, Hua Xiali and Hua Qiuli went to eat. It was already very hot at noon in May, and many people on the street had changed into nice skirts.

After dinner, Hua Xiali bought four popsicles from the small shop. Hua Chunli ate the popsicles and went back to school. She had to race against time to read and review.

Many people came out to play today, so Hua Xiali and Zhang Yongfeng prepared 500 kilograms of potatoes. Unexpectedly, all 500 kilograms of potatoes were sold out in one go, and they finished work earlier than usual.

After sending the things to school and putting them away, the three of them walked to the tailor shop. Hua Xiali said to Zhang Yongfeng, "Brother-in-law, it's not good to keep our things in school all the time. We should think of other ways. If we can rent a small single room near the school, even if it can only fit our teppanyaki, it will be better than leaving it in school."

If the principal allows Hua Xiali to leave his things in school, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among everyone over time.

"It may be hard to rent a house now, but after the college entrance examination, when the senior high school students graduate, many people will probably want to move out." Zhang Yongfeng said thoughtfully, "We can ask around in advance, and once someone moves out, we will rent it quickly to prevent the vacant house from being rented by the parents of the sophomores."

Some students live far away from home, some do not want to live in dormitories, and some have better-off families, so many of them rent houses near the school.

Hua Xiali nodded. "It's still early, so we'll knock on every door and ask if anyone has high school graduates who want to move out. We can make an appointment first, or sign the contract first, and then we'll rush over as soon as they graduate."

Set up a stall first, and after a few years, when this area develops, buy two storefronts. Even if you don’t do business yourself, you can collect rent from them. After all, the demolition in the previous life was in the countryside, not the town. There were only some road construction and reconstruction, but the changes were not big.

After all, demolishing and relocating buildings in the city is very costly and not something that ordinary people can afford.

Moreover, the resettlement village in the previous life was built next to the town, very close to the town. Everyone came here for a walk after dinner, and they could reach the town in just a few steps.

When they arrived at the tailor shop, Zhang Yongfeng asked for two sets of clothes to be made for Hua Qiuli. He only asked for a black one because his stall produced a lot of fumes, so he could just wear his old clothes. Occasionally, he would just change into clean new clothes when he went out.

After the clothes were ordered, the three of them went to look for a house. When they saw someone's door was open, they went over and knocked on it to ask. It happened that someone had an empty woodshed, so they asked them if they wanted it. The woodshed didn't have a lock, so they needed to prepare one themselves, but the price was much cheaper than a room.

Hua Xiali thought that they just needed to store the tools for the stall and didn't need to live here, so the woodshed would be fine, so he rented the woodshed.

Twenty dollars a month for rent is quite a bargain.

They went to the hardware store to buy a door lock, and then the three of them walked back together. There was no minibus to take, so the three of them had to walk back. Fortunately, they didn't have to bring anything with them, so they traveled light and went back quite fast.
