Chapter 5 Borrowing Money
When Hua Xiali heard this, she couldn't help but applaud her mother in her heart. Once this request was made, no matter who it was, they would definitely turn around and run without any hesitation.
In her previous life, Wang Liang married her with a betrothal gift of 300 yuan, but he didn't cherish her at all. Although he stayed at home for two or three years at the beginning, he was either out hanging out with his friends or fishing. They had almost no time to spend together. She only wanted to live a good life at that time and had no idea that he didn't like her.
After all, he was so diligent in pursuing her at the beginning and performed so well, no one would have thought that something like "liking" could be acted out.
Wang Liang, who was standing outside the door holding his bicycle, was stunned there for the whole time. Then he became angry and shameless and even demanded a betrothal gift of 50,000 yuan. If he was willing to marry a rural girl, she should be grateful to him, but she even wanted a betrothal gift of 50,000 yuan?
"Auntie, can you have some shame? How can your Xia Li be worth 50,000 yuan? Your family is a hell of a place now. I'm kind enough to marry Xia Li, and you're not grateful, but you actually want to take advantage of me? Now, let alone 300 yuan, even if you give me 300 yuan, I still won't marry Xia Li." After Wang Liang finished speaking, he got on his bike angrily and rode away.
Hua's mother and Hua Chunli couldn't help but look at each other. No one had expected that Wang Liang would be such a person.
"Why is Wang Liang such a person?" Hua's mother was very angry. "I had advised Xia Li to choose Wang Liang before, but I didn't expect him to be such a person. Fortunately, Xia Li didn't choose anyone. If she really married into such a family, wouldn't her life be miserable?"
"I didn't expect him to be such a person. It's better that he refused." Hua Chunli couldn't help but rejoice.
She didn't know what qualifications Wang Liang had to look down on Xia Li, a guy who didn't even finish junior high school, who went out to work for two years and already started looking down on others. If he really had that much ability, why didn't he just bring a wife back from outside? Why was he chasing after Xia Li?
"Who cares who he is or what he does? It has nothing to do with our family anyway." Hua Xiali came back from the backyard with a relaxed look on her face, then brought Hua Chunli's teacup over and handed it to Hua Chunli, "Big sister, drink some water."
Hua Chunli took the teacup and drank it slowly. She didn't know why, but after she drank the water, she felt as if her mind suddenly became clearer.
When Hua's mother was about to go for a walk in the fields, the grandmother who lived in the first house in their row came over with a boy of a few years old. The child's grandmother was holding an old hen in her hands.
The person came to apologize for her grandson who had hit Hua Xiali in the eye with a stone yesterday. Hua Xiali was not polite and took the old hen that was handed over to her.
I stewed the old hen in the evening to nourish the whole family.
After Hua's mother and Hua Chunli left, Hua Xiali went to Hua's father's room. Seeing his father lying on the bed unable to move, Hua Xiali was heartbroken.
Now that she has the spiritual spring water, she can slowly help him recover his health, but Hua Xiali did not say these words that made him expect. She wanted to earn some money first, and then take her father to the best hospital in the provincial capital for a re-examination, and then prescribe new medicine. Then she can slowly help her father recover his health. In this way, others will only think that the doctors in the provincial hospital have superb medical skills, and will not doubt her.
Hua Xiali talked to Hua's father for a while, and seeing that his father didn't need anything, he left his father's room, locked the door and went out.
The most important thing right now is Hua Chunli's tuition. After all, there are only more than two months left before the college entrance examination, and there can be no more delay.
Hua Xiali walked out of the door and headed towards the brigade headquarters.
Hua Xiali was worried all the way, and she was mentally selecting relatives from whom she could borrow money.
None of her father's relatives had good conditions. The conditions of her two married aunts were average, but they also contributed money after her father got into trouble.
So this time when I want to borrow money, I can only consider relatives on my grandmother's side.
The relatives on my grandmother's side are all in good condition. Her uncle's family is relatively wealthy. Not only do they have a house in their hometown in the countryside, they also bought a house in the town.
Her second uncle's family was well off, because he worked in a mine and it was he who took her father there. Otherwise, they would have had to dig for food in the mud and probably couldn't even afford the tuition for the three sisters.
My third uncle is an elementary school teacher. He has been teaching for decades and his salary has increased a lot now.
My fourth uncle's home is in the mountains. He has a tea plantation and various fruit trees...
Before he could finish his thought, Hua Xiali had already arrived at the door of the brigade headquarters.
The geographical location of their Huazhuang villagers' group is very good, right in the central area of Qinglong Village. The school, clinic, and brigade headquarters are all here.
The brigade headquarters was on the roadside outside the village. Even if it was the last house in the last row of the village, it would take less than five minutes to walk there.
Hua Xiali adjusted his mood, then reached out and knocked on the door frame. Hearing the sound of "come in" from inside, he walked in.
In the huge office, only the village party secretary Huo Beixi was sitting inside.
Huo Beixi was not from their place. He had just come to Qinglong Village last year to serve as the village party secretary. He had no place to live, so he bought the empty house behind her house.
Behind Hua Xiali's yard is the village's shared well. Ten or twenty years ago, everyone lined up here to get water. Now that most families have dug wells, few people go there to get water.
The original owner of the house where Huo Beixi lived had passed away many years ago, and there was no well, so he had to fetch water from a public well. Hua Xiali often saw Huo Beixi fetching water there.
"Secretary Huo, let me make a call." Hua Xiali pointed to the phone on the table somewhat awkwardly.
Huo Beixi nodded and said, "Let's fight!"
Then he lowered his head and continued to deal with his affairs.
Hua Xiali walked to the phone, picked it up and started dialing the number. After dialing the first few digits, she stopped there because she really didn't know how to ask for help. In the past three years, not only had the family savings been spent, but they also owed 6,000 yuan. Now they couldn't ask for another 1,000 yuan...
Hua Xiali put his hand on the phone and lowered his head uncomfortably, wondering in his heart what he should say to make the other party more receptive. After all, the money he owed before hasn't been repaid yet, and now he's asking for money again. Would others think that their family is a bottomless pit?
Things are really different now, because she has been reborn and has experience in one lifetime. She knows how to make money, and she will definitely be able to pay off most of her debts by the end of this year. But no one believes her when she says this, and people will just think she is bragging.
