Chapter 317 Chinese New Year

But now she is fine, and the whole family is fine. We can still live together for decades to come, and we can still live a good life for decades, and we can eat enough delicious food.

"Mom, is the braised meat ready?" Hua Xiali ran into the kitchen impatiently and asked anxiously.

"How can it be so fast? How long have you been putting up the couplets? How long have I been cooking this meat?" Mother Hua used a spatula to stir the iron pot for a while, then covered the pot and wiped the water off her hands on her apron. "Yongfeng, go get the things for visiting the graves and organize them. In the afternoon, go to visit the graves of Chunli's grandpa and grandma with your uncle and the others to pay respects to them."

Even though they don't like them and even though they are divorced, they still have to put on a show of being nice, otherwise the villagers will talk about them to death again.

"Okay, I understand, Mom." Zhang Yongfeng nodded and went to the utility room to get out the things needed for visiting the grave.

Speaking of visiting graves, Hua Xiali couldn't help but turn her head to look at Huo Beixi. In her second life, she also visited Huo Beixi's graves all her life, and as she did so, she became more and more dependent on him. She thought that it was because she visited the graves too many times that she developed feelings for Huo Beixi.

Huo Beixi reached out and touched Hua Xiali's hair, wondering if it was reminding him of the scene in his dream where Hua Xiali visited his grave every year.

"Mom, let's go back first and come over to help later." Hua Xiali took Huo Beixi's hand and went out directly through the back door.

After returning home, Hua Xiali sat on the edge of the bed, took out the red envelopes and money, and began to count them. Each of her cousins ​​got twenty yuan. In this era when a few yuan is considered a lot of New Year's money for children, twenty yuan for her is definitely not a small amount.

Afterwards, she packed the New Year's money for her family. She put two hundred yuan in each of the New Year's bags for Hua Chunli, Zhang Yongfeng, Hua's mother, and Hua Qiuli. She also quietly put one thousand yuan in the New Year's bag for her beloved husband Huo Beixi.

They are your closest relatives, so naturally they cannot be treated the same as your relatives.

After Hua Xiali packed all the red envelopes, he put the ones from relatives in his clothes and the ones for his family in Huo Beixi's pocket. Naturally, the opportunity to show off should be given to Huo Beixi, which would also bring him closer to all family members.

Finally, Hua Xiali handed the New Year's gift package containing 1,000 yuan to Huo Beixi and said with a smile, "Huo Beixi, this is your New Year's gift. You have worked hard this year. Happy New Year."

When she is not greedy, she will never call him "husband", because Huo Beixi will easily go crazy when he hears those two words.

Although there is a lot of money in the drawers at home for daily family expenses, Huo Beixi is not short of money on weekdays, but now it is the New Year, and he still has to give when it is time.

"Thank you, my wife." Huo Beixi took the New Year's gift package handed to him by Hua Xiali, then hugged Hua Xiali and kissed her. Hua Xiali reached out and pushed him away embarrassedly.

Although they have been married for more than a year, she still feels shy whenever she does this.

Then Huo Beixi also took out a box and handed it to Hua Xiali, "Wife, Happy New Year."

As soon as he saw the box, Hua Xiali knew that it was definitely not just a simple New Year's gift. When he opened it, he found that it was indeed a set of gold jewelry.

Gold necklace, gold earrings, gold bracelet, gold necklace, gold ring...

A whole set of pure gold. I guess he saw that she bought so many gold bars at the bank and thought that she particularly liked gold bars, so he bought her so many gold jewelry!

In fact, she bought the gold bars not because she liked gold, but because she was making plans for her future children. When the children grew up, she could give them the gold bars as a start-up fund.

Hua Chunli got pregnant at the same time as in her previous life, so it should be the same for her. It is already February now, so she should be pregnant as well, but it hasn't been that long yet, so she has no reaction yet.

She remembered that in her previous life, she couldn't stand the smell of any meat, even if there was a little lard in the stir-fried vegetables. But there were too many things going on, and she couldn't remember exactly how many days into her pregnancy this happened, but it should be soon.

Although this money was taken from the drawer at home, it was a token of his good intentions. You know, many people would take this money for themselves.

Young people think gold is tacky and prefer diamonds and platinum, but Hua Xiali doesn’t think so. She thinks glittering gold is the most beautiful.

She took off her gold necklace and gold earrings and asked Huo Beixi to put them on her. Then she put on the gold bracelet and gold ring. These were gifts from her husband and she couldn't let them down.

However, Hua Xiali didn't dare to wear it outside, as she was afraid of being robbed in the street, so she just wore it at home. Not showing off her wealth was a kind of protection for herself.

Anyway, she doesn't understand those who show off their wealth. It's as if they want the whole world to know that they are rich. The more people know, the more dangers there will be.

Hua Xiali leaned in Huo Beixi's arms, took his big hand and placed it on her belly, and said softly, "Beixi, I feel like I'm pregnant. We should have a baby."

"Really?" Huo Beixi was extremely excited.

As a man who is about to turn 31, there should be no one who does not look forward to having children. However, not everyone has such a strong desire to continue the family line, so if there are no children, he will not force it. But if there are children, it will naturally make their small family more complete.

Seeing Huo Beixi's happy look, Hua Xiali was also very happy. She reached out and touched Huo Beixi's handsome face and said, "It should be, because I feel my stomach is a little bloated, which is not the same as usual."

"Swelling?" Huo Beixi raised his eyebrows worriedly, "Does it feel uncomfortable?"

Hua Xiali shook his head. "It's not uncomfortable. If it were uncomfortable, would I still be able to lean on your arms like this? Then I would definitely have told you a long time ago!"

"Then let's go to the hospital for a check-up, otherwise I'll be worried." Pregnancy is no trivial matter.

When Huo Beixi was about to get up, Hua Xiali hurriedly stopped him and said, "It's Chinese New Year now, there aren't many people in the hospital, it's useless to go, wait until after the New Year!"

In the afternoon, the two of them packed up and went to the front to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.

When they arrived, Hua Chunli was already sitting at the table drinking chicken soup with a big chicken drumstick in the bowl. This chicken soup was simmered by Hua's mother in a casserole on the stove over low heat. It was different from the meat stewed in the pot in the morning.

Although the meat in the pot included pork ribs, pig's trotters and chicken, the chicken soup Hua Chunli drank first was stewed in the stove.
