Chapter 206 Slightly inferior
Every time Hua Xiali went to see Hua Tiefeng, she dressed herself up ugly. Xie Jinglin didn't have a girlfriend yet, and Wang Liang even lied about being divorced to come to her for money. Who knew if Xie Jinglin would do something to her to get back the 50,000 yuan? Anyway, it's better to be careful.
Xie Jinglin is already such an adult, he can obviously find a job to support himself, or go back to his father’s or mother’s hometown, but he insists on staying here with Hua Tiefeng. I guess he wants to get more benefits, right?
Anyway, there was no way Hua Xiali would let him plot against him.
Hua Xiali didn't even say hello to Hua Tiefeng. He handed the daily necessities to the old man who took care of Hua Tiefeng and left. Being able to provide for her in her old age was her limit. He also wanted her to coax and comfort him with soft voice like before, and forgive him quickly without saying a word after being insulted by him. This was impossible.
Anyway, all she can do is to take care of him in his old age and not provide any emotional value. He likes his sons so much, so let his two precious sons take good care of him!
Some people just take advantage of others to get what they want. Hua Tiefeng has never scolded Xie Jinglin and Xie Shengbao until now, but before, when he was at home, he would scold the mother and daughter who worked hard to take care of him almost every day, and sometimes he would find fault with them several times a day.
Hua Qiuli was lucky enough to escape the disaster because he was studying at school.
Can't you see that? Hua Tiefeng never cared about the four of them, mother and daughter, and didn't even treat them as human beings. After all, who could be so cruel as to insult his wife and daughter every day?
So what qualifications did he have for her to invest her emotions? If he could scold Xie Jinglin and Xie Shengbao as harshly as he scolded them, Hua Xiali might be able to provide him with some emotional value, otherwise, forget it.
On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, the New Year rooster is killed.
Every household is killing chickens and ducks in preparation for the New Year. Now that Hua Xiali's family has two men, Zhang Yongfeng and Huo Beixi, these matters are naturally left to them to handle.
This is the custom here. On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, all the poultry needed for the New Year are prepared so that they can be cooked directly when the time comes.
The two grown men moved quickly, killing three chickens, ducks and geese each, cleaning them up and putting them into baskets.
Although the winter here is not very cold, it is still a bit cold at minus one or two degrees. After the two people finished processing the poultry, their hands were frozen red. Hua Xiali immediately brought them hot tea to warm their hands.
Hua Xiali handed out the New Year gifts that he had brought to them one by one. Each person received a big bag, and the contents were similar, except that the styles were different for men and women!
She bought the goods at a cheaper wholesale price. If they went out to buy them themselves, they might have to spend three times as much to buy the things that Hua Xiali gave them.
Moreover, at the end of the year, the streets are crowded and it is easy to encounter thieves. She has to go out to get the goods anyway, so it is not a hassle to just bring a truckload back. Why should she go out and suffer this?
Everyone did not immediately open the bags to check what Hua Xiali had given them. Instead, they took their bags back to their rooms and then went downstairs to deal with things.
Hua Xiali also prepared a copy for Gao Shuaiquan and gave it to Hua's mother. She would just have to give it to Gao Shuaiquan when he arrived. Now everyone gets along like relatives, and Gao Shuaiquan also saved Hua Qiuli. To their family, Gao Shuaiquan is a family member.
After Huo Beixi came over and sat down, Hua Xiali grabbed his cold hand, squeezed some hand cream on the back of his hand, and whispered, "Your hands are very beautiful. You must protect them well and don't let them get frozen."
Huo Beixi chuckled, "Since my wife likes it, I must protect my hands and not scratch my wife's delicate skin."
Hua Xiali reached out and pushed him, saying coquettishly, "Be serious, okay? Can you not be so irrelevant in the occasion..." "What?" Huo Beixi moved closer, staring into Hua Xiali's eyes, looking at him seriously, "Calculate for yourself, how long have you not been with me properly during this period at the end of the year?"
During the last few days of the year, Hua Xiali went out early and came back late every day, sometimes he didn't even come back at night, and he couldn't bear it.
Hua Xiali rolled her eyes at him, "What do you know? I asked you to rest for a few more days, rest well, take care of your body, and be full of energy. Then you can have a better experience, right?"
"I, your husband, don't need to rest." Huo Beixi said proudly, and leaned towards Hua Xiali. Hua Xiali was so scared that he quickly stepped back. Everyone was just putting things away, not away from home. It would be so embarrassing if someone suddenly showed up and saw them!
When Hua Xiali and Huo Beixi returned, Hua's mother put a clean chicken, duck and goose in a basket and gave them to take back. In fact, all the poultry that Hua's mother wanted to sell were "bought" by Hua Xiali, and Hua Xiali had no shortage of them. But Hua's mother didn't know that, so Hua Xiali didn't refuse and happily took them.
After all, I have given Hua Mu a lot of things.
Family affection is mutual, and one-sided efforts can be tiring. In her previous life, she made one-sided efforts for her two sons and never enjoyed any return from them.
Of course, parents should not raise their children with the purpose of expecting their children to repay them, but they don’t give any return at all. Instead, what is the point of getting married? Hua Xiali still needs to bear the responsibility, which makes Hua Xiali very disappointed.
After returning home, Hua Xiali handed Huo Beixi a set of clothes that he had prepared for him and said, "Go try them on and see how they look."
"I have enough clothes to wear, you don't need to buy more for me. You can buy more for yourself." Huo Beixi said.
"This is what I bought when I was wholesale clothes. It's not expensive."
Huo Beixi took the clothes handed to him by Hua Xiali and changed into them. There were only two of them at home, no outsiders. Besides, they were only changing the outer layer of clothes, not taking off all clothes, so there was no need to go to the bathroom to change.
Huo Beixi has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, an upright figure, and long, straight legs. The cool-toned clothes he wears highlight his imposing manner, making him look like the male protagonist in the TV dramas he watched in his previous life.
No, even those male protagonists would be inferior to Huo Beixi.
Because Huo Beixi's handsomeness is truly natural, without any makeup, lighting, filters or other techniques, even his eyebrows are not moved. Who would trim their eyebrows at that time, especially men, whose eyebrows are sharp and deep. If Huo Beixi had not taken a step towards her first, she would not dare to approach such a person, let alone have the opportunity to get in touch with him and get to know him.
"How is it?" Huo Beixi straightened his collar and stood straight in front of Hua Xiali.
Hua Xiali looked at Huo Beixi with sparkling eyes. He was truly a walking clothes rack. Any clothes looked very elegant on him. It was a pity that he didn't become a model.
Hua Xiali pinched his chin and looked at Huo Beixi seriously, "Not bad."
