Chapter 72 Never had such treatment
Huo Beixi picked up a stone, threw it into the water, tested the depth of the water, and jumped directly into the water, just like a diver. The speed was so fast that Hua Xiali was almost shocked.
Huo Beixi just used a stone to test the depth of the water. He was not afraid that the water was too deep, but that it was too shallow. If he plunged in, wouldn't he plunge into the mud?
Soon, Huo Beixi poked his head out of the water. He stretched out his hand to wipe the water off his face and said to Hua Xiali, "Stand aside."
"Oh!" Knowing that he must have picked it up, Hua Xiali Hua Xiali quickly stood aside and waited for Huo Beixi to throw the things in his hands up. Hua Xiali hurried over to check. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a freshwater clam as big as the mouth of a washbasin. It should weigh several kilograms or even More than ten pounds is possible.
Huo Beixi was groping for freshwater clams in the river, while Hua Xiali was looking for freshwater clams in the mud on the shore. As long as there was an opening, she would pick them out, and then take the small ones in when Huo Beixi wasn't paying attention. In the Lingquan space, these small ones can be taken out for breeding in the future. The larger ones placed outside can be broken open to see if there are any pearls, and the meat can be kept for eating.
Perhaps because the river was gradually drying up, the freshwater clams all squirmed into the middle of the river. As a result, there were so many freshwater clams in the middle of the river, and soon the bank was piled up like a hill.
When Huo Beixi stood up from the river again, Hua Xiali waved to him hurriedly, "Huo Beixi, that's enough, no need to touch it anymore. This much is enough for a group of us to eat for several meals." Come and touch it after we finish eating!"
"Okay." Huo Beixi came ashore with the freshwater clams in his hand, put the freshwater clams together, and said to Hua Xiali, "That's it. There's so much, neither of us can take it back, so you go back first!"
Hua Xiali glanced at the pile of freshwater clams, feeling helpless. If Huo Beixi If she wasn't here, she could go directly into the Lingquan space without having to work so hard. But now because Huo Beixi is here, she can't cheat and can only make Huo Beixi suffer.
After hesitating for a moment, she nodded, "Okay, I'll go back first. I'll look at the arrangements for lunch. Now that our family is staying at your house, we definitely can't wait for you to do everything."
Hua Xiali said this and went back with her empty basket. Huo Beixi had to pick it back anyway, so it would be useless for him to take a few of her baskets.
The rest of the Hua family were busy braised meat at the third uncle's house. No one in the Huo Beixi family was quiet. Hua Xiali went to the water tank first to scoop water, washed his hands and face, and then She started cooking with the food in Huo Beixi's kitchen, and also used vegetables from the yard. In fact, it was enough to cook for the two of them. Her family were all at her third uncle's house, and they would definitely not run back and forth at noon. , after all, the sun outside is too harsh.
As soon as the meal was ready, Huo Beixi picked out the freshwater clams. Hua Xiali hurriedly handed him the towel and asked worriedly, "Have you been seen by the villagers? What happened to you? "Answer?"
"It's noon, everyone is resting at home, and I don't meet anyone." Huo Beixi looked at Hua Xiali with a gentle face, but did not take the clean towel in her hand. , I have to take a shower and change clothes after a while anyway, so there is no need to dirty the towel.
"That's good." It would be best if he didn't meet anyone, otherwise Huo Beixi would definitely tell everyone without reservation based on the nature of his work.
Others have never done this thing before and don’t know how to do it. Let them do this thing. It would be a waste of resources.
Huo Beixi placed the freshwater clams in a shady corner of the yard, then took the bucket to the public well in front to fetch water. When Hua Xiali heard the sound again, she saw Huo Beixi standing in the yard. Water was poured directly against the wall, and the transparent well water flowed down the muscle lines of his back, just like a sexy oil painting.
Hua Xiali swallowed, and then quickly turned around. She couldn't look anymore, otherwise she would go deeper and deeper.
She returned to the kitchen and put the food on the table. After Huo Beixi took a shower, she went back to her room and changed into clean clothes. She came out and sat opposite Hua Xiali. When she picked up her rice bowl, she subconsciously asked, "Isn't your birthday celebrated yet?"
“It’s passed a long time ago.” Hua Xiali was a little disappointed.
Huo Beixi was slightly surprised, "When did it happen?"
"July 11th." Hua Xiali said and lowered her head to eat. She had never celebrated it since she was a child. birthday, so I didn’t realize it was my birthday after being reborn, so I simply forgot about it.
Next year, she must give herself a good birthday to make up for the regrets in her past and present lives.
Huo Beixi put down the bowl and chopsticks, got up and went back to the room. After a while, he came out of the room again, but with a small box in his hand. He handed the small box to Hua Xiali.
Hua Xiali asked in confusion, "What is this?"
"Birthday gift." It had been prepared a long time ago and was waiting to be given to her, but she didn't expect to miss it. Yes, and it's so wrong.
"Huh?" Hua Xiali was surprised, "This...isn't this not good?"
Huo Beixi took Hua Xiali's hand and put the box on her In the hand, "This is a birthday gift. It has different meanings. You can't refuse it. I will read it when I have time. Eat first."
Huo Beixi warned and continued eating, while Hua Xiali also put the box at hand and started eating.
After lunch, the two of them went back to their rooms to take a lunch break. Although Huo Beixi worked in the brigade headquarters, they also had lunch breaks, but there would be people on duty in the brigade headquarters. This is why Hua Xia Because Li often met Huo Beixi in the brigade headquarters, of course he was the only one in the brigade headquarters when he was on duty!
After Huo Beixi gave up the room to Hua's father and Hua's mother, he also went to the room with a floor covering during his lunch break.
Hua Xiali lay on the floor made of door panels and opened the birthday gift Huo Beixi gave her. When she saw the big shining gold bracelet inside, she was stunned.
When her two sons got married in the previous life, Hua Xiali took their daughter-in-law to buy hardware. She bought them such a big gold bracelet. At that time, it cost about twenty to thirty thousand, forty or fifty thousand. Gram by gram, based on the current price of gold, this big gold bracelet costs at least more than 2,000 yuan!
More than two thousand in 1990, what is this concept?
This money can buy several houses in the countryside.
It was just a small birthday gift, but Huo Beixi gave her such a thick gold bracelet!
But Huo Beixi also said just now that this is a birthday gift and cannot be refused. These words directly blocked her way out. If she returns the big gold bracelet to him, he will definitely be very happy. Angry, thinking she doesn't give him face?
After hesitating for a while, Hua Xiali took out the big gold bracelet and put it on her wrist. Then she admired it carefully and let her be happy for a while. Have you never been treated like this in all your life?
