Chapter 52 Fruit
Zhang Yongfeng set up the stall as usual. Hua's mother was responsible for processing the braised food at home. Hua Xiali and Hua Chunli took Hua's father to the county hospital. Hua Xiali chartered a car for the whole day, with a driver helping them. The two sisters just had to go.

When Hua Xiali chartered the car, she told the driver to set off at six in the morning. Now it is July and the sun rises very early in the morning. At six or seven o'clock, the sky is already bright and the sun is shining. It is not early at all to set off for the hospital at this time, because those who live close to the hospital have already gone to the hospital to queue up.

In fact, Hua Xiali taking Hua's father for examination and treatment was just a cover. She had her own spiritual spring water, which was more effective than any medicine. But she couldn't let others think that Hua's father got better inexplicably. She had to let everyone see a process and make everyone believe that Hua's father was slowly recovering because of repeated examinations and treatments.

The temperature difference between morning and evening is quite large in this season. The wind in the morning feels cool on the body, but it becomes extremely hot at noon. Hua Xiali and Hua Chunli sat on the bed of the truck. Neither of them spoke, just sitting there quietly.

"By the way, sister, what major did you choose when you filled out your application?" Hua Xiali asked curiously.

"Guizhen University of Technology's major is water conservancy and hydropower engineering; Guizhen Agricultural University's major is seed science and engineering; Qingyuan University's major is international economics and trade. I'll choose whichever school accepts me. If all of them accept me, I'll choose Guizhen University of Technology's water conservancy and hydropower engineering." Hua Chunli said confidently.

It can be seen that she is confident about her college entrance examination results.

Hua Xiali nodded. "They are all very good majors. You will definitely be assigned a good job after graduation. Sister, when you receive the admission letter and the major is confirmed, buy some books and study on your own."

"What about you? What major do you most want to study?" Hua Chunli asked curiously.

"I want to study computer engineering," said Hua Qiuli.

We are about to enter the era of the Internet, and this major has the greatest development prospects.

And she was not a complete newbie. When her two sons in her previous life were admitted to college, she bought them two sets of college supplies, namely a mobile phone and a laptop.

No matter how hard life is, children must not suffer; no matter how poor, education must not be neglected. When it comes to her children's studies, she is quite generous. She would rather suffer herself than let her children suffer.

Although the laptop was bought for her son, it was equivalent to having two laptops at home at once, which meant having two valuable items. In order to ensure that she and her child would have no common topics to talk about, Hua Xiali also learned some simple computer knowledge. After all, she was smart and had good grades when she was in school, so she learned things very quickly.

So she has a certain basic knowledge in computers, and when she goes to college, if she works harder and is more diligent, she should be able to learn it.

The driver found a spacious place to park near the county hospital. After getting off the car, he assembled the wooden cart. Then, together with Hua Xiali and the others, he lifted Hua's father off the car and put him on the wooden cart.

The inquiring glances from passers-by made Hua's father so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the ground. He didn't want to be laughed at anymore.

Hua Xiali let Hua Chunli go in first to queue up for registration, while she pushed Hua's father in from behind. Hua's father kept his eyes closed, pretending not to see everyone's inquiring gazes.

After registering and queuing up, a series of tests were done, and then medicine was prescribed. It was the same process as the town hospital, and the doctor said similar things, which meant that there was no good way to treat it, and it mainly depended on taking medicine to slowly recover, combined with acupuncture, massage and other techniques. Hua Xiali naturally knew this, but she didn't expect that visiting the hospital twice would make a paralyzed person recover. She just wanted such an action to let outsiders know how much their family had paid for the treatment, that was all.

Now we have changed the medicine and my father can sit up. After a while, we will go to the city hospital again and then we can let him stand up again.

When they returned home in the evening, everyone sent Hua's father back to his room. Hua Xiali gave the car rental money to the driver and asked him to invite him to have dinner at home, but the driver refused. However, he left his phone number for Hua Xiali and told him to call him next time he went to the hospital.

Hua Xiali was planning to go to the city hospital, but it would take some time. Since the driver was willing to cooperate again, she didn't have to find a new driver. Of course, she agreed readily, wrote down the phone number, and saved it in the Lingquan space.

Afterwards, Hua Xiali followed the driver's car because she was going to her fourth uncle's house in the evening.

Time passed by day by day in busyness. The weather this year was a bit strange. From the beginning of the Chinese New Year to now in July, there has not been a single rain. It is extremely hot every day. When sleeping at night, I toss and turn like I am making a pancake. Hua Xiali almost always stays at his fourth uncle's house at night. It is in the mountains with rich vegetation and it is cooler at night.

There are many kinds of fruit trees planted in my fourth uncle's yard, and there are only one or two trees of each kind. But in summer, every tree is full of fruits, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Every year in the past, Fourth Uncle would send some fruits to Hua Xiali's family, and the rest would be sold on the street for money. But this year, the family had already made a lot of money from bamboo shoots and bamboos, so Fourth Uncle did not plan to sell these fruits. But he did not waste them either. He picked the fruits that were ripe for picking and shared some with his relatives.

Then the rest were all given to Hua Xiali. Because different fruits ripen at different times and not all ripen at once, Hua Xiali would take some ripe fruit home every day.

When she got home, she took out enough for a few days and preserved the rest in the space. This naturally ripened fruit was especially delicious and it would be impossible to buy such fresh fruit in later generations.

Because the fruits sold in the market are picked in advance, when they are about 60% or 70% ripe, they are not as delicious as those ripe on the trees.

That afternoon, when everyone was packing the braised food in the kitchen, Hua Xiali carried a basket of fresh fruits and quietly went to Huo Beixi's house in the back.

She has been very busy recently and seldom meets Huo Beixi, so she doesn't know how he is doing.

Huo Beixi opened the door with a trace of fatigue between his brows. Hua Xiali felt a little guilty when he thought that he might disturb his nap, so he quickly handed over the basket in his hand, "I got you some fruits, very fresh, just picked."

"Thank you." Huo Beixi reached out and took the basket. There was no trace of anger on his face. It seemed that he was not a person who would be in a bad mood when waking up.
