Chapter 284 It's always been like this since I was little
The sudden feeling of being lifted into the air startled Hua Xiali, and then she reached out and hugged Huo Beixi's shoulders tightly, staring at him coquettishly, "Why didn't you say anything? You scared me."
"You've worked hard before, now take a good rest." Huo Beixi's eyes spoke for themselves.
Hua Xiali patted him and said, "Can you let me have a good rest?"
Before checking the birthday gift from Huo Beixi, Hua Xiali leaned in Huo Beixi's arms and opened the gift he gave her. Unexpectedly, it was a full set of gold jewelry.
Gold necklace, gold fingers, gold earrings, gold rings...
Five-piece gold set.
Many people don’t have such hardware when they get married. Unexpectedly, Huo Beixi actually prepared such a birthday gift for her.
Although the price of gold was less than a hundred yuan at that time, so much gold was not light in weight, so it must have cost a lot of money. Although it was all his family's money, it was also a token of his love.
Unlike many people who directly regard the public property at home as their own property and are reluctant to spend a penny for their family!
"Thank you." Hua Xiali leaned over to Huo Beixi and kissed him on the face, smiling and saying, "You are so nice to me! But I haven't prepared any gifts for you!"
"Who said that? Xia Li, summer's gift, you are the best gift God has given me." Huo Beixi took out the gold necklace and put it on Hua Xiali.
Hua Xiali doesn't like wearing jewelry. She only tried the pearl necklace before, but put it away after wearing it a few times. Huo Beixi designed a jewelry cabinet for her, the kind that can hold a lot of jewelry, and then did the carpentry. Now Hua Xiali's jewelry is placed in the jewelry cabinet, and then the jewelry cabinet is placed facing the wall. Most people can't really tell that it is for jewelry.
Even if a thief broke into the house, he would never have thought that this ordinary cabinet was actually used to store jewelry.
"We should sleep in the same bed when we live and be buried in the same grave when we die. We will be buried together and we will keep each other company even after death. This way, you won't feel lonely." Hua Xiali leaned in Huo Beixi's arms.
Hua Xiali felt very distressed when she thought that Huo Beixi was waiting for her endlessly in the dark and cold underground but could never see her.
When Huo Beixi could no longer wait for her, she must have passed away. Wang Junhuan and Wang Junli probably fought over her property and even gave her a bloody funeral. They probably didn't even give her a proper funeral. They hurriedly took her to the crematorium and maybe they didn't even buy her an urn. Instead, they put her in a shoe box or a plastic bag!
It is also possible that they did not bury her at all, but simply found a field, a river or some other place and threw her ashes there.
They are ungrateful people to begin with, and the child might actually be Wang Liang and his mistress's child. How could they possibly spend a penny on her?
"Yeah." Huo Beixi bent down and kissed Hua Xiali's forehead, then let her go and went out to fetch some water. Although they had taken a shower before, after a few hours of making noise, both of them were covered in sweat, and they couldn't sleep without wiping themselves clean.
Huo Beixi brought some warm water, placed it on the bedside table, wet the towel and wrung it dry, then helped Hua Xiali wipe it. Seeing that her cheeks were red as if they were about to bleed, and her slightly closed eyelashes were still trembling slightly, Huo Beixi said gently, "We have been married for so long, are you still shy?"
They got married last winter and it will be ten months soon. What else doesn’t he know?
Hua Xiali raised his foot and gently kicked his chest, gritting his teeth and said, "Get out of here if you don't wipe it."
How dare you laugh at her!
Huo Beixi threw the towel into the basin, obediently stopped wiping, then covered her and rolled with her.
At night, their stomachs growled. They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Huo Beixi picked up the vest and put it on. "It's so late, it's too late to make other food. I'll go cook noodles."
"I want cold noodles." Hua Xiali ordered the menu. Huo Beixi looked back at her charming appearance and asked with a smile, "How do you make cold noodles?"
"After the noodles are cooked, just take them out and soak them in cold boiled water for a few seconds. Then cut some cucumber shreds and egg skins and mix them. A bowl of delicious cold noodles is ready." Hua Xiali said with a smile.
Huo Beixi came over and kissed Hua Xiali, "My wife is still the best at eating."
"Yes, I'm a great eater, so you not only have to practice your cooking skills, but you also have to take good care of your body, okay?" Hua Xiali looked at Huo Beixi and smiled evilly.
Huo Beixi touched her hair, then got up and left.
When Huo Beixi was cooking dinner under the warm yellow light in the kitchen, he could only hear the sugarcane leaves in the yard rustling in the night wind, which seemed to be playing a moving melody, making Huo Beixi feel very good.
The cold noodles were soon ready and Huo Beixi brought them into the room. Hua Xiali moved his still weak legs, got off the bed, and sat with him at the small table in the room to eat the cold noodles.
White noodles, emerald green cucumber shreds, and golden egg shreds, the three colors mixed together look very beautiful and taste very delicious.
"Well, it tastes really good, cool and refreshing." Huo Beixi couldn't help but sigh. He has to say that his wife is really good at eating. Following his wife, he can enjoy a feast.
Hua Xiali smiled faintly and said nothing. She ate the noodles seriously. After a whole afternoon, she was really hungry and now she just wanted to fill her stomach quickly.
After eating a bowl of cool and refreshing noodles, Hua Xiali felt as if he had come back to life.
Huo Beixi took the dishes back to the kitchen. Hua Xiali heard a knock on the door and went to open it. It was Hua Chunli.
"Sister, why are you here?" Hua Xiali asked curiously.
Hua Chunli raised the plate in his hand and said, "The watermelons you planted in the backyard are ripe. We picked one today. We thought that you two couldn't finish a whole watermelon, so we brought you four slices."
Their family has never celebrated birthdays, so even though today is Hua Xiali's birthday, no one comes to say happy birthday to Hua Xiali. Hua Xiali doesn't blame them, after all, it has been like this in their family since they were young.
"Thank you, big sister." Hua Xiali took the plate from Hua Chunli and said with a smile, "Big sister, can you come in and sit for a while?"
Hua Chunli waved his hand hastily, "I won't go. I'll go back first. You guys should also go to bed early."
What a joke! She didn't want to see Huo Beixi's cold face. If Hua Xiali wasn't willing to go with Huo Beixi, they wouldn't agree to Huo Beixi marrying Hua Xiali. Who would just bring the betrothal gift and marry a wife the first time they visit the house? There was no process at all, and no time for everyone to prepare themselves mentally.
