Chapter 272 It’s Normal to Have Eaten It
"Qiuli, you have to keep this money yourself. I won't help you keep it, but don't spend it recklessly. Spend it where it should be spent and don't spend it where it shouldn't be spent. Save it for your future college education, okay?" Hua's mother advised.
I was afraid that she would go to school, pretend to be rich, and spend the hard-earned money of her family with her classmates.
Although he didn't know whether he could get into high school or college, Hua Qiuli listened to his mother's words, nodded, and didn't say much.
After dividing the money, Hua Qiuli returned to school.
"Xia Li, this is to pay you back." Hua Chunli counted out the extra money for the homestead and the money for buying building materials and handed it to Hua Xiali. The construction team would just have to settle the wages themselves when the time came.
"I just happen to be short of money, so I won't be polite." Hua Xiali did not refuse and accepted the money directly. They didn't ask them for money before because they had no money, but now it's different. Now they have money. In the future, Hua Chunli will get 10,000 or 20,000 yuan every month. She is not short of money, so Hua Xiali naturally won't be polite to her.
Moreover, she borrowed 50,000 yuan from the bank, and the interest was more than 10,000 yuan. She still owed the bank more than 60,000 yuan. She took out the loan herself, so naturally she had to pay it back. She couldn't let others share the loan with her, so she naturally kept the money that Hua Chunli paid back to her.
Hua Chunli now has a residential plot of 300 square meters. When the two-story building of 400 square meters is built, plus her and Zhang Yongfeng's account fees and their land fees, they will be able to get a lot of money when the house is demolished. The couple are just earning a little money now, and their life will not be bad in the future, so there is naturally no need for Hua Xiali to give them more money.
In her previous life, Hua Qiuli only studied and did nothing else, but she got 130,000 yuan for nothing. It was just that Hua Xiali was rich, so she didn't care about these things. But now she has no money, and the Lingquan space is not with her, so it is not convenient for her to use it. She doesn't make as much money as in her previous life, so naturally she has to put herself first.
With more income, Zhang Yongfeng became more generous. Unlike renting a three-wheeled motorcycle in his previous life, he directly rented a small box truck. He rented the car and the driver for two hours every morning for 100 yuan a month. This way, the driver could take other orders at other times.
But where does this hundred dollars come from?
The only thing they could do was to wholesale more pig offal to earn back the driver's wages, so the amount of pig offal was increased from 2,000 kilograms to 2,500 kilograms. In this way, after deducting the cost of pig offal and seasonings, as well as the wages paid to everyone, they could earn more than 30,000 yuan a month.
And because Hua Xiali had a loan of 50,000 yuan, the family could put the blame on Hua Xiali.
When everyone finds out that they can make money by selling braised food, they will think of other ways. If not, then they will just ignore it. Anyway, they know very well how the villagers treat their family, and they can't be so saintly as to take the initiative to help others. They will only consider it if others come to them for help.
The bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest are very dense at this season. Hua Xiali went to the bamboo forest across the river bend to check. He saw pointed bamboo shoots breaking through the ground, and the forest looked full of vitality.
However, this place will no longer exist in the future, so adhering to the principle of not wasting, Hua Xiali began to pick bamboo shoots. Because there was no spiritual spring space, she did not pick a lot, just one basket, which was enough for her family to eat.
Lu Xiaozhi helped her find freshwater clams, and they followed the dried-up riverbed to the edge of the town. Then they searched back and forth for several months but couldn't find anything, so Hua Xiali asked him to help pick bamboo shoots, charging one cent per pound, and deliver them to Huo Beixi's house after dark.
Hua Xiali now has tens of thousands of savings. Although he can't do anything big, he can still stock up on bamboo shoots. When the time comes, just put them in nylon bags like fish and put them in the Lingquan space when Hua Qingmei comes. As long as Hua Qingmei is alive, the Lingquan space will always be there, and Hua Xiali is the real owner. If Hua Qingmei dies, it is possible that the Lingquan space will return to Hua Xiali!
After Hua Xiali talked to Lu Xiaozhi about the bamboo shoots, he carried a basket of bamboo shoots back home. He had rich experience in his previous life, so it was very easy for him to handle the bamboo shoots now.
She quickly peeled a basket of bamboo shoots cleanly, then boiled water to blanch the bamboo shoots and made a delicious bamboo shoot meal for everyone in the family to taste at noon.
I really can't understand why such delicious food has never been eaten by anyone since childhood. It is more likely that they don't know how to cook it. After all, everyone lives in the countryside and doesn't know what's happening outside. There are also few channels for things outside to be reported to the countryside, so it is also possible that everyone doesn't know they can eat it.
Zhang Yongfeng would go to the farmer's market every morning to get goods and bring some meat back home. Hua Xiali went to find him and brought back a few pounds of pork. At noon, he made braised pork and bamboo shoots. He made a whole pot. Hua Xiali filled the dough bowl with it and sent it to the front.
She only divided the bamboo shoots into two halves, making them one long strip, and did not cut them into smaller pieces. It was particularly enjoyable to eat them by picking them up.
When Huo Beixi came back for lunch at noon, he brought back a box. Hua Xiali knew that the second batch of pearls must have been processed. She took the box, put it back in the room, and then came out to eat with Huo Beixi.
Huo Beixi picked up a bamboo shoot and said curiously, "If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be a bamboo shoot, right?"
Hua Xiali nodded. She really wanted to say, it’s the bamboo shoots from your hill, but they are not fat here, so the bamboo shoots are thinner and not as fat as the bamboo shoots from Huo Beixi’s hill. But after being processed, the taste is no different.
"How can this thing be delicious?" Huo Beixi frowned and said with some disgust.
"You'll know if you try it!" Hua Xiali said with a smile. Then he picked up several bamboo shoots and put them in the bowl, and started eating them one by one. The bamboo shoots in this season are tender and fresh, and especially delicious.
If it weren't for the fact that you can't eat too much of anything at once, she would have just eaten a bowl of bamboo shoots.
Huo Beixi took a bite of the bamboo shoots with a nervous mood. It was crispy and tender, and blended with the aroma of meat. It was very fresh and delicious. It was really tasty.
"I didn't expect that these bamboo shoots are so delicious." After tasting them, Huo Beixi found them quite delicious, so he started to eat them with confidence.
Hua Xiali guessed that he must have eaten bamboo shoots in his hometown village before. After all, he had his own mountain, which was full of bamboo shoots, so it was normal for him to have eaten them before.
