Chapter 25: Money
After dinner, Hua Xi simply cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and then packed up the things he bought and went out.
She was carrying a white flour bag in her hand, and a big net bag, there was a big paper bag in the net bag, I don't know what it was, and five catties of meat tied with hemp rope, and everything was ready to be sent to Lao Song's house.
The ten catties of white noodles that allowed her to open smoothly today were lent to her by Song's mother, and the money to buy meat was also lent to her by Song Dongquan. As the so-called icing on the cake is easy, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, she bought white noodles as soon as she had money, not only to repay the money and things, but also to repay it.
Since Song Dongquan hasn't come back yet, she will go to Lao Song's house first.
Hua Xi thought as she walked, and unconsciously quickened her pace.
At this time, the people in the village have also finished dinner, and they are in groups of three or five to enjoy the shade under the big tree, talking about homely things. Everyone was surprised to see Hua Xi coming out of the house with a large bag of things, or walking in the direction of Lao Song's house.
On weekdays, people in the village have only seen Hua Xi pounding things from the old Song family, where have they seen her take it back, and today's move is simply a miracle in the world.
Also enjoying the shade outside is Huaxi's second aunt Wang Fang, her house and Lao Song's house are the same street, not far away, but at this time, she watched Huaxi come over with something, and her eyes lit up all of a sudden.
"Xi'er, why are you here, you're here to find Juanzi."
Wang Fang thought that Hua Xi had bought good things to send to her daughter, after all, she had told her daughter a few years earlier, let her coax Hua Xi on weekdays, Hua Xi bought something, don't just think about eating it yourself, and ask Hua Juan to think about her younger brother.
In the past few years, Hua Juan has been very obedient, and whatever she gets from Hua Xi's hands, she will take it home.
Hua Xi was blocked, her footsteps naturally stopped, and she didn't answer Wang Fang's words, but just called politely, "Second aunt." ”
Wang Fang stared at the net bag in Hua Xi's hand, her eyes narrowed with a smile, "Xi'er, you are in the city again, what is here, a bag full of them, you too, what good things are always thinking about Juanzi." ”
As she spoke, Wang Fang stretched out her hand and habitually took the things in Hua Xi's hand.
But before she could touch it, Hua Xi staggered and unconsciously distanced herself from Wang Fang.
Wang Fang was stunned for a moment.
Hua Xi said with a smile: "My grandfather is short of food, I took some from my mother-in-law yesterday, I went into the city today to buy it, and I sent it to my mother-in-law." ”
Hua Xi's voice was not loud, but it was not small, and the villagers sitting around him also heard it clearly.
She bought something, but not for Hua Juan, but to send it to her in-law's old Song family.
Not only Wang Fang was stunned, but also several villagers who drove her out when Huaxi borrowed grain yesterday were also stunned.
The smile on Wang Fang's face was a little unbearable, she really didn't expect that Huaxi's things were actually bought for the old Song family, so what she did just now was simply slapping herself in the face.
But she had already greeted her, and so many people were watching, she couldn't say that she would change her face if she changed her face, and asked with a stiff smile: "I bought it for your mother-in-law, hahaha, too, your mother-in-law has the best heart, otherwise how can you marry Dongquan." ”
Hua Xi smiled, how could she not hear what the second aunt meant, I was afraid that it was not that her mother-in-law had a good heart, but that her mother-in-law was stupid, otherwise who would agree to her son marrying someone like her.
Wang Fang skimmed the net pocket in Hua Xi's hand, and said sourly: "You still bought meat, what is in the paper, I see it full of Dengdeng?" ”
"Xi'er, I didn't say you, you should also change it, your grandfather is not in good health, you can't lose that little pension, you still have to save some flowers later."
"The second aunt is right, I will definitely not spend money on outsiders in the future."
Looking at Wang Fang's darkened face, Hua Xi continued: "Second aunt, it's getting dark, I'll leave first, and I'll talk to you another day." ”
Hua Xi bypassed Wang Fang and walked directly in the direction of the old Song family.
She spends the money she earns, and she buys whatever she wants, can others control it! No matter what she buys, she will not have a share of the second uncle's family in the future, and she will definitely not be stupid again!
Hua Xi disappeared at the gate of the old Song family with her things.
Outside, everyone looked at the things in Huaxi's hand and regretted it a little in their hearts.
I knew that she would repay so many things if she borrowed Hua Xibai noodles, so they borrowed them all.
Wang Fang was especially angry, you must know that Hua Xi didn't send any good things to her house before, but now this girl doesn't give her any face.
"What's the big deal, it's not just a loser, the old Song family is also a mold that has fallen for eight lifetimes, what a daughter-in-law if you want it! The money on her is much more than those catties of meat. ”
The surrounding women didn't listen to Wang Fang's words at all, and they all discussed what Huaxi was filling her pockets with, which made Wang Fang's face on the side more and more unsightly.
Zhao Zhenzhen just came out of the house and was told that she was not included in the indicators of the next batch of workers in the city, she just muttered a few words, and was almost beaten by her father.
I really don't play when I see the flowers. If it weren't for Hua Xi talking nonsense in the village a few days ago, her father was the production captain and was afraid that others would say that he was fake for public benefit, how could this quota not be given to outsiders!
She listened to the surrounding discussions, walked up to Wang Fang and couldn't help asking, "Second aunt, what's wrong?" ”
......
As soon as Hua Xi walked into the courtyard of Lao Song's house, she found that there had been changes in the yard.
Originally, the house had been half burned down, and a lot of things were piled up in the yard, but now it was obvious that it had been cleaned. Even the blackened roofs and beams will be gone.
It can be seen that Song Dongquan is very popular, and he was able to repair the frame of the house so quickly, and then directly put on the beams of the new house, and then make the roof, and the house was repaired.
Hua Xi retracted her gaze, walked in with her things, and saw her mother-in-law Zhang Yulan eating in the yard with a pair of children.
Song Dongyue watched Hua Xi walk in and snorted directly.
Song Dongxian was timid, and when he saw Hua Xi, he unconsciously put down the bowl and hid behind his mother.
Mother Song raised her head under the abnormal behavior of the children, and saw Hua Xi walking around the vegetable garden.
"Xi'er, why are you here, have you eaten?"
Mother Song stood up from the chair and said that she was going to find a bowl for Huaxi.
After all, her son now lives in her daughter-in-law's house, and although she doesn't like Huaxi very much, she can't be lazy in the end.
Hua Xi looked at the cornmeal rice soup on the dining table, it was so thin that she couldn't see the rice, and most of the floating vegetables were wild vegetables. She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she really couldn't imagine that after her mother-in-law gave her white noodles, the family couldn't even eat a mouthful of dry rice.
