Back to the 1990s: Holding the spiritual spring and striving for a well-off life
Chapter 444: Not Looking for These Things
Chapter 444: Not Looking for These Things
Hua's mother's memory is also a little confused, and she is not clear about many things.
"Mom, I can swim, nothing will happen to me." Hua Xiali said with a smile.
If she couldn't swim, then her future self wouldn't have entrusted her to go to the river bend to rescue Huo Beixi on her birthday in 1991. She was afraid of forgetting the things her future self had entrusted her with, so she would read the letter every night before going to bed to deepen her memory.
"Those who drowned were all good at swimming, do you understand? Don't do such things again in the future." Hua's mother warned unhappily.
She doesn't want anything to happen to her daughter, and other people's affairs have nothing to do with her.
Hua Xiali smiled and said, "Got it. If I need to save someone again in the future, I will definitely save others while protecting myself."
"Hurry up and take a shower and change your clothes!" Hua's mother waved her hand, asking Hua Xiali to take care of his own things and not disturb her money-making business.
Hua Qiuli is about to go to town to start the first grade of junior high school, and she also has to open a braised food shop next to the school to accompany Hua Qiuli, so she is really busy now!
Hua Qingmei hurried to the backyard to deal with the pig offal. She was working for Hua's mother now, so she must do her job well, otherwise what would she do if Hua's mother didn't want her to work here anymore?
A few hours a day and a few dozen dollars a month is much better than resting at home!
"Hua Qingmei, Hua Si Nian, you two come to me at night with a flashlight and a wooden barrel. I have something to tell you." Hua Xiali went to the backyard to give instructions, then used a wooden barrel to fetch hot water from a large water tank to the bathroom to take a bath.
Their rural family has a large population, from the old to the young. Boiling water for bathing consumes firewood, water, and effort, so they don't boil water for bathing in the summer. They just dry the water in the sun. The well water is exposed to the sun for several hours, and it is still quite hot when they take a bath in the evening.
After taking a shower, Hua Xiali changed into a white, waist-length, knee-length dress. She came out of the bathroom while wiping her hair with a dry towel. When she saw the person sitting at the table in the main hall, she felt embarrassed. She didn't know there were guests at home, otherwise she would have dressed herself up before coming out.
"Xia Li, come here quickly." Hua's mother stood up and pulled Hua Xia Li over, letting her sit next to her. She smiled faintly and said to Jian Nan who was sitting opposite her, "Jian Nan, this is our Xia Li. She was the one who saved you just now."
Hua's mother appeared calm on the surface, but she was very happy in her heart. This was her son-in-law from her previous life. She didn't expect him to show up now. But she couldn't be too happy, lest people think she was selling her daughter for fame.
Jian Nan fell in love with Hua Xiali the second she appeared. When he opened his eyes and saw her innocent little face, his heart was moved. Now when he saw her delicate and beautiful face again, like a lotus flower emerging from clear water, he felt like he was about to suffocate.
Hua Xiali felt very embarrassed by Jian Nan's straightforward gaze. He lowered his head shyly, and awkwardly twisted his hair which had not yet dried with his fingers.
"Xia Li, thank you for saving our Jian Nan. Jian Nan came to our house for the summer vacation. If anything had happened to him in our house, we probably wouldn't be able to continue our relationship with this relative of theirs. You not only saved Jian Nan, you saved two families!" said the aunt in fear and relief.
If Xia Li hadn't saved Jian Nan, she really didn't know what would happen next. "Aunt, I believe that no matter who encounters such a situation, they will not stand by and watch. For me, this is just a piece of cake, no need to thank me." Hua Xia Li said embarrassedly.
"But there were many people at the scene, and other people must have seen it, but they did not choose to lend a helping hand. This shows that not everyone is like you, willing to lend a helping hand. For you it is a piece of cake, but for us it is a life-saving grace. Life and death are more important than anything else." The aunt continued.
"I understand." Hua Xiali nodded. "Then I accept your gratitude. From now on, no one should mention the life-saving grace anymore, okay? And please take the gifts you brought back with you!"
Hua Xiali had already seen the wine and cakes placed next to her. She had just come back to take a shower, and it was impossible for Jian Nan to have time to go to the town to sell things. It was very likely that he had picked out a few items from the gifts he brought to his relatives.
She doesn't save people for these things, not to mention that her monthly income is more than 10,000 yuan and she is not short of money. How could she possibly want these little things from others?
"Xia Li, our Jian Nan is an excellent student at Rose University and just graduated this year. You should be taking the college entrance examination soon, right? If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask our Jian Nan!" The aunt patted Jian Nan's shoulder and excitedly promoted him.
Jian Nan's eyes never left Hua Xiali. Hearing his relative say this, he nodded and smiled shyly, "Yes, I just graduated. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
"Jian Nan, our Xia Li is about to enter the second year of high school. It is indeed a crucial time. Can you share with her some of your review experiences and experiences in taking the college entrance examination?" Hua's mother looked at Jian Nan and asked.
Jian Nan nodded happily, "Of course, no matter what questions Xia Li has, I will tell you everything I know."
"How long will you stay here?" Hua's mother continued to ask.
Jian Nan rarely came to the countryside. He originally planned to come and play for a few days and then go back. After graduation, he started working in his own company. He didn't have any work to be assigned, so he could report anytime. He was not in a hurry, so he said, "I want to stay here until the end of summer vacation."
"Great, then our Xia Li's study problems will be handed over to you!" Hua's mother said, and pushed Hua Xia Li's shoulder, "Go and get your books quickly. Let Jian Nan explain the parts you don't understand. Take advantage of this summer vacation to lay a solid foundation."
"Let me blow dry my hair first." Hua Xiali was so embarrassed that he quickly got up and left. He pulled a chair, sat down in the corridor, and leaned on the back of the chair.
The temperature is high in summer and the wind seems to be like fire. Freshly washed hair can dry in just a few minutes.
Thinking of Jian Nan's name, Hua Xiali suddenly remembered something. The letter from decades later mentioned Jian Nan's name, so this Jian Nan was...
Hua Xiali patted her face and stopped herself from thinking about these things. She was about to enter the second year of high school, and the most urgent thing was to study hard and get into university.
As for finding a job in the future, she has already mastered many ways to make money, so she doesn't have to look for a job. After all, she has tried it all decades later and the road has been paved. As long as she follows this road, her life will not be bad.
