Chapter 119: Turning against guests
But not much is added, so it cannot produce too good an effect all at once, otherwise it will arouse other people's suspicion. So just change it slowly, letting everyone see the process of her family's change, and naturally they will not find it strange.

Hua Xiali took a few newspapers from under the coffee table and handed them to Leng Yuye, "We don't have TV or other things to kill time at home. If you are bored, just read newspapers and magazines! I also read these things occasionally."

Hua Xiali also knew that if her family bought a TV, she would not be able to earn money steadily in the future, so she did not plan to buy a TV. She decided that after a few years, when TV became popular in their village, she would just buy a big color TV.

Now many people in the village make money by buying goods from her, so someone will definitely buy these things soon. Anyway, she doesn't want a bunch of people sitting in their living room with bowls and chopsticks.

Although this is very lively, she is actually a person who prefers quietness and prefers to stay quietly.

"Okay." Leng Yuye took the newspaper and started reading it.

In the evening, Hua Xiali got Leng Yuye a new set of toiletries. Her family had stockpiled a lot of daily necessities, so she didn't have to spend money on the expensive ones.

Someone who has been to the wholesale market countless times naturally knows what the price of things should be. The retail prices outside are almost three or four times the wholesale prices.

Leng Yuye took the basin handed over by Hua Xiali and was a little surprised to see what was inside. "Thank you, I'm sorry to bother you."

"It's a small matter, don't worry about it. Go wash up first, we'll do the same later!" Then Hua Xiali went back to the room upstairs.

In the morning, she met Huo Beixi at the construction site. Huo Beixi told her that she must go to his house once in the evening no matter what. She didn't know why he asked her to go there.

She would wash up soon and go to Huo Beixi's house after everyone had gone to bed.

When Leng Yuye was about to fall asleep at night, he suddenly heard the sound of "da da da" coming down the stairs. Although it was very light, he still heard it. Leng Yuye opened the door curiously and saw Hua Xiali coming down the stairs.

At this moment, she was completely different from the daytime. A burgundy velvet headband covered her bangs and the loose hair around her ears, revealing her smooth, white and full forehead. The eyebrows and eyes that were faintly visible under the bangs during the day were now completely exposed without any cover. Her eyebrows were like ink paintings, her eyes were as bright as stars, and she wore pearl earrings on her ears. She looked very elegant.

Hua Xiali was a little surprised when Leng Yuye opened the door and came out. She walked so carefully, but he still heard her?

"What are you going to do?" Leng Yuye asked.

Hua Xiali smiled awkwardly, "I... I'll find a place to practice English."

"I happen to be good at English. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Before Hua Xiali could say anything, Leng Yuye took the English book from her hand, sat down on the sofa, and patted the seat next to him. Hua Xiali hesitated for a moment before walking over and said awkwardly, "Thank you for your help."

Half an hour later, Leng Yuye was still full of energy, but Hua Xiali was already yawning, "Leng Yuye, thank you for today. I'm sleepy. I'll go back to my room to rest first. You should go to bed early too!" Hua Xiali was so sleepy that he went back to the room, put down his English book, and lay down to rest. As for Huo Beixi's house, it was so close that he could go there anytime. It was not necessary to go there tonight.

I slept until dawn and heard voices outside the courtyard gate. Hua Xiali's room was at the back and the window faced the back. If she wanted to see the door, she could only go to Hua Qiuli's room. But Hua Xiali was not a person who liked to go to other people's rooms. Even if they were her sisters, she would never go to their rooms privately.

Hua Xiali tidied himself, went downstairs, and came to the front yard. Through the gate, he saw Leng Yuye helping Zhang Yongfeng move the pig offal from the three-wheeled vehicle. It seemed that he was also a person who could not rest.

"Xia Li, are you up?" Leng Yuye saw Hua Xia Li coming out and walked over.

Hua Xiali nodded. "You are a guest, how can I ask you to work? You will take the bus back after lunch, why don't you rest for a while?"

"Breakfast is in the pot, go and have it!" Leng Yuye urged.

Hua Xiali raised his eyebrows in surprise. Is he taking over the reins?

After that, she didn't say much. She turned around and went to the kitchen. After having breakfast, she came out to see the ingredients Zhang Yongfeng brought back. She knew that there were guests at home, so he brought back more ingredients today.

Today he brought beef, lentils, a white-striped chicken and a white-striped duck. Although white-striped chicken and white-striped duck are not good things, it is 1990 now, and these things are different from those in later generations. Unlike those in later generations, which are slaughtered in just a few dozen days, they are still edible at this time.

In addition, oyster mushrooms, cucumbers, eggplants, green peppers, and tomatoes are all brought back in whole baskets. In the past few years, there have been vegetable greenhouses, so we can eat summer vegetables in the middle of winter, so it is normal to buy cucumbers at this time, but they are expensive. However, Zhang Yongfeng directly wholesales a basket, so it is much cheaper than retail.

And now that his family is rich, Zhang Yongfeng is willing to spend money to buy things for the family.

Leng Yuye and Zhang Yongfeng moved baskets of food to the kitchen. Although there were a lot of dishes, their third and fourth uncles would come to buy some, so they would not be able to eat them for a few days.

Hua Xiali took out the dishes for lunch and prepared them. The white-striped duck has a short growth period and its meat is tender, so it does not need to be stewed. Just make a braised duck.

Then there are beef stewed with lentils, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, smashed cucumbers, stir-fried meat with green peppers, and braised eggplant. Six dishes are enough.

When people are busy, they don't notice the passage of time at all. When they react, they find that a long time has passed. Since Leng Yu had to catch a bus after dinner, in order to prevent him from rushing to catch the bus, Hua Xiali started preparing lunch in advance.

She cooks lunch in the kitchen at home, and the person who makes braised food does it in the kitchen in the yard. They don't interfere with each other and don't delay anything.

Lunch was ready. Hua Xiali put the dishes on the table and brought everyone's teacups and poured soda for everyone. Then he went out and told everyone to wash their hands and come to eat. However, he only called a few people from their own family, and did not call the people who came to help in the backyard. There was no need to make such a fuss when friends came to visit.

Hua Xiali asked them to eat first, while she went upstairs to pack some return gifts for Leng Yuye. People came to her house with their hands full of gifts, she couldn't not let him take anything back!
