Chapter 58 Shattered All Romance
But she didn't know what he was thinking. Did he want to be ambiguous, or did he simply want to take advantage?

Having suffered a great loss in her previous life when she got married, she naturally had to be cautious in this life, and no one could trick her into going home with just a few tricks.

After walking through the village for a few minutes, they arrived at the back of the village. The wider world seemed even darker. Although Huo Beixi turned on the flashlight, he did not let go of Hua Xiali's hand.

The fields on both sides were filled with the chirping of insects and croaking of frogs, as if playing a moving piece of music.

The ripe rice in the fields exudes the fragrance of harvest. Some people have started harvesting rice in the past two days. Hua Xiali does not plan to do it herself this year. In the past few years, the four of them, mother and daughter, have been farming and harvesting, and they were really exhausted. So this year she will wait until others have finished harvesting and then pay two people to do it.

There has been no rain this year, so there is no need to worry about the rain affecting the rice.

"Xia Li." Huo Beixi suddenly stood opposite Hua Xia Li, looking at her with deep eyes, "You don't have to rush to pay back the money I borrowed from you before. I don't have such a big expense on a daily basis."

"Okay." Hua Xiali raised her lips and smiled. She had agreed when she borrowed the money that she would pay him back before the Chinese New Year. It wasn't September yet, and there were still six months until the Chinese New Year in mid-February. If her and Zhang Yongfeng's business was stable, even if they could only make 5,000 a month, they would still be able to earn tens of thousands. Even if they were short of money to the bank, they could pay back most of it, not to mention the 1500 yuan they owed him.
But she only needs to pay back one thousand yuan every month for the money she owes to the bank, so she will definitely return the money to Huo Beixi before the New Year.

"I still have some money. If you need anything else, you can tell me." Huo Beixi continued.

"Okay, thank you. If there's anything I need, I won't be polite to you." Hua Xiali smiled brightly.

In her previous life, she saw a sentence on the Internet, which was that if you want to know whether a person really likes you, just ask for money and try it.

Therefore, a person who is willing to lend her money and help her is superior to many people in this world in terms of character.

Hua Xiali raised her head, looking at Huo Beixi's handsome outline in the dim moonlight, when suddenly her arm felt itchy. She quickly reached out and slapped it, and with a 'pop' sound, all the romance was shattered.

Then, a warm coat was put on her shoulders, "There are too many mosquitoes at night, let's go back!"

Hua Xiali complained while scratching his itch, "Why do mosquitoes only bite me and not you?"

"Because I covered myself tightly before going out." Huo Beixi said in a gentle tone.

Hua Xiali looked him up and down, and indeed, he was wearing the yellow shoes that everyone wore when working in the fields, black trousers, and even a coat over his vest, but now the coat was draped over her shoulders.

Unlike her, who ran out as soon as she got out of bed without realizing that she was wearing pajamas. Fortunately, they were ordinary short-sleeved shirts and cropped pants, not a nightgown or some sexier pajamas, otherwise, she would have been so embarrassed to go out like this!

Watching Hua Xiali open the small door and go in, Huo Beixi stood there and waited for a while before turning around and leaving.

The next day, the construction team arrived. Hua Xiali had a total of 300 square meters of residential land. At her request, the construction team measured out 200 square meters because she planned to build a 400 square meter house downstairs. The remaining 100 square meters of the yard would be used to dig a well, and the rest of the land would be used to grow fruits and vegetables.

This way you don’t have to spend money on eating fruits and vegetables.

After all the building materials arrived, Hua Xiali began to build his house. He asked his third and fourth uncles to be in charge of the construction. He had to have his own talents on the construction site, otherwise, what would he do if others fooled him? After all, Hua Xiali would live in this house for 20 years, until it was demolished.

The three families just had to wait until the end to harvest the rice and simply hire a few people in the village to harvest it.

It's all odd jobs anyway, whether you go out or do odd jobs in the village, there are many people willing to do it.

Hua Qiuli is now on summer vacation. Hua Xiali asks her to read and study in the morning, and then help her mother and others prepare braised food in the afternoon. The salary is also three yuan a day, paid on a daily basis.

As for Hua Chunli, he went to the town with Zhang Yongfeng to set up a stall to sell spicy potatoes. By working together, they could sell more spicy potatoes and earn more money.

Regarding the matter of Hua Chunli's ID being stolen, Yu Qingxin and Yan Yishen visited every household in the village for two days but there was no progress. They also knew that the other party probably wanted to wait until the person forgot about the matter and then come out to handle it. However, Yu Qingxin and Yan Yishen informed other colleagues about the matter and asked everyone to help keep an eye on it. Therefore, even if the other party applied for it the day before school started, he would not be able to succeed.

That morning, Hua Xiali had just arrived at the construction site. Before he had time to say a word to the leader of the construction team, he heard the village radio calling out, "Hua Xiali, come to the village office to answer the phone. Hua Xiali, come to the village office to answer the phone..."

So Hua Xiali hurriedly turned around and ran towards the brigade headquarters, running there as fast as she could. After arriving at the brigade headquarters panting, she adjusted herself at the door for a while before walking in.

When I picked up the phone and heard the voice, I realized it was Zhang Yongfeng.

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" Zhang Yongfeng had not called Hua Xiali since he set up the stall, but he actually called today, which meant something happened.

"Xia Li, I came to the landlord's house today. When I was moving things to set up a stall, I found that the oil bottle had been moved. I clearly tightened the bottle cap yesterday, but now it is loose." Zhang Yongfeng said anxiously.

When Hua Xiali heard this, her heart sank immediately. She knew that if her business was doing well, she would be envied and imitated by others.

But I didn't expect that someone would use such a bad and vicious method to add things that should not be added to their cooking oil, causing others to have diarrhea, which is a minor condition. What if it kills someone?
Could it be that in their eyes, human life can be treated so lightly?

"Brother-in-law, don't touch the oil pot now. Just lock the door and report to the police. Then ask them to do a fingerprint test. It doesn't matter how much money it costs, but you must find out who that person is and ruin his reputation so that he can't do business in the future and can't harm others. When you're done, you can come back with your things. Come back first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Because Huo Beixi was sitting in the brigade headquarters, Hua Xiali didn't want him to know too many secrets about himself, so when he spoke to Zhang Yongfeng, he deliberately lowered his voice so that Huo Beixi wouldn't hear.
