Chapter 315 Awake
Chapter 315 Awake
On this New Year's Eve, only Liu Fengzhi seemed to be having an unhappy time, while everyone else was spending it happily and joyfully.
When the fireworks in the sky have faded into silence, every household is still brightly lit, representing the hope that those who stay up late have lit for themselves.
next day
Hua Jingxing got up early, lit a fire and cooked a pot of dumplings that he and the children had made last night.
"Dad! Happy New Year!"
Hua Jiao brought her two younger sisters to wish Hua Jingxing a happy new year while he was sitting on the kang.
No one saw Liu Fengzhi, but no one asked about it. Even Hua Rong seemed to have forgotten about Liu Fengzhi.
Hua Rong couldn't be blamed. She really had no feelings for Liu Fengzhi. Since she was born, there were only Hua Yan and Hua Jiao in her eyes, and no trace of Liu Fengzhi at all.
Liu Fengzhi was lying in the room, waiting for someone to call her. She was very hungry last night, so she got up secretly and ate some leftovers.
Because she didn't take advantage of the situation yesterday, she went hungry. She planned to go to the child as soon as he called her for dinner today.
But when the four men finished eating and left, no one came to call her.
Not only was he filled with resentment towards Hua Jingxing, he also hated Hua Jiao with a vengeance.
In the past, Hua Jiao would always give her a way out no matter what, but now she doesn't even give her a way out.
Liu Fengzhi felt sad all the time, thinking that she had given birth to three ungrateful people, especially Hua Yan, who made her upset whenever they met. If it weren't for her, Hua Jiao and Hua Rong wouldn't have been so distant from her.
Haha! Selfish people never look for reasons in themselves, they always blame others for their mistakes.
Hua Jingxing brought the three sisters Hua Jiao to the old lady Hua's house and paid New Year's greetings. They couldn't just leave after arriving, so they sat for a while.
This time, Old Lady Hua had no nose, no face, and contrary to her usual behavior, she gave candy to Hua Jiao and the others.
"Grandma, we won't eat it, so you won't scold us again."
Hua Rong pushed the candy from Old Lady Hua away, because in the past when she wanted to eat candy, Old Lady Hua would scold her.
Huarong now has better candy in her pocket, but her sister told her that if she ate too much, her teeth would fall out and she wouldn’t be able to eat, so she didn’t take it out to eat.
So the candies from old lady Hua had no appeal to Hua Rong at all.
"Jingxing, why didn't Fengzhi come?"
"I don't know. Yesterday I gave her some money and asked her to buy you some New Year's goods. Maybe she was tired from traveling back and forth and didn't eat much.
When we came out today, she hadn't gotten up yet. Don't pick on her, she respects you the most, if she wasn't too tired to get up, she would have come no matter what you said. "
Hua Jingxing pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth.
Old Mrs. Hua thought to herself, this spendthrift guy even lied to me and said that the salary was given by Jingxing.
"Mom, I gave you some fish and chicken. You can cook them for my dad. Don't even think about giving them as gifts."
Hua Jingxing knew that his father was a henpecked husband, and his mother made all the decisions. It was harder than climbing to heaven to eat something good. Whatever delicious food there was, it went into Hua Jingyu's mouth.
"Okay! I'll stew it for your dad. That's enough food for today. I'll make it tomorrow."
I'll ask Jingxian to cook for you guys later, and we'll have a reunion dinner at home today."
Old Mrs. Hua got up and started to make arrangements.
"Mom, please save the good stuff for them. I will take the children to the secretary's house to pay New Year's greetings later, so we won't eat here."
Hua Jingxing refused immediately.
"Why are you in such a hurry to go to the secretary's house? Go there after dinner."
Old Mrs. Hua was a little too attentive and completely forgot about standing with her hands on her hips in front of Hua Jingxing's car yesterday.
"Mom, it's not good to go too late. Besides, we just came here after dinner and we are not hungry yet."
Hua Jingxing stood up and signaled the children to retreat with his eyes.
Old Lady Hua grabbed Hua Jingxing with her claws and teeth bared, and said anxiously:
"Jingxing, you haven't had a New Year's Eve dinner at home in all these years. You can't leave this year no matter what."
"Mom, there are too many of us. If we eat all the food we have, you will have nothing to eat.
I can’t be so ignorant and let the children laugh at me.”
Hua Jingxing broke free from Old Lady Hua's hand and walked out.
Hua Jiao, Hua Yan and Hua Rong were already waiting outside the door. They were really afraid that if something went wrong, they would be detained inside.
"Hua Jingxing, if you don't eat this meal at home today, don't come here again."
Old Mrs. Hua was anxious.
"Okay, if you don't want me to come, I won't come. I won't bother you."
Hua Jingxing had already pulled Hua Jiao and the others out.
Old Mrs. Hua stamped her feet and beat her chest, looking as if she was about to die of anger.
Hua Jingxing fled out of the yard gate, smiled at the children, and walked excitedly towards Su Wenchao's house.
"Dad, you have really offended Old Madam Hua this time. I don't think you will have an easy life in the future."
Hua Yan had a gloating expression on her face.
"My life has never been good, so why should I be afraid of it getting worse?"
Hua Jingxing felt relieved.
If he didn't have a daughter, he might never be able to break free from the shackles of filial piety.
Looking back at his foolishly filial self, he felt that his original self was a joke.
Always self-righteous, always self-touched, always self-critical, always at a disadvantage, haha! Always self-harming.
None of this is necessary now.
He will not slack off in fulfilling his obligations, but he will not make any extra emotional investments because it is not worth it.
Hua Jingxing felt unprecedentedly relaxed. He finally took the path that his daughter had already taken.
You can sacrifice your life for someone who is worthy, but if you do these things for someone who is not worthy, you will only be regarded as a fool. Not only will they fool you, but they will also laugh at you.
Hua Yan held Hua Jingxing's hand, giving some strength to this man who didn't have a good wife or mother.
It is said that only with a good mother and a virtuous wife can one establish a career and start a family. If not, then the career will not be like a career, and the family will not be like a family, and in the end, one will not even know how to revive after death.
So without these, we have to stay sober in the world and avoid getting on the train of being fooled and never coming back.
Hua Jingxing looked at Hua Yan and felt that this girl had saved his life and made his future bright, which he was no longer powerless to change.
When we arrived at Su Wenchao's house, Su Quan was seeing off guests.
"Uncle Six, Happy New Year!"
Hua Jingxing wishes a happy new year to the person opposite.
"Sixth Grandpa, Happy New Year."
Hua Jiao and a few others also followed to wish a happy new year.
"Haha! It's Jingxing! Happy New Year, Happy New Year!
Come, Nuan'er, Jiu'er, Guo'er, this is the New Year's money that Sixth Grandpa gave you."
Sixth Grandpa took out three red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Hua Jiao and others.
Hua Jiao glanced at Hua Jingxing and did not take the red envelope immediately.
"Don't look at your dad, this is given to you by Sixth Grandpa."
Sixth Grandpa put the red envelopes into the pockets of Hua Jiao and others.
"Thank you, Sixth Grandpa!"
Huarong patted her pocket and said with a smile.
In Kyoto, people often give Huarong red envelopes, and she is used to it.
Seeing Huarong’s adorable appearance, Sixth Grandpa picked her up from the ground.
"Guo'er, how about going to Sixth Grandpa's house to play later?"
Although Sixth Grandpa spoke to Hua Rong, he was actually inviting Hua Jingxing.
"Okay! Sixth Grandpa, I'll go with my sister in a while."
Hua Rong agreed without asking anyone for their opinion, because she knew that Hua Yan would definitely agree.
"Sixth Grandpa, I will take Guo'er to pay New Year's greetings to Sixth Grandma later."
Hua Yan said with a smile.
She understood that this was Sixth Grandpa's way of making friends with their family.
Sixth Grandpa's father was the former village party secretary. He originally wanted Sixth Grandpa to take over, but Sixth Grandpa had no interest in being an official, so he handed this important responsibility to his good friend Su Wenchao.
Hua Yan also heard these from Hua Jingxing. Although Sixth Grandpa is not a leader, he is a noble person and deserves respect.
"Uncle Six, I will take the children to visit Aunt Six to wish her a happy new year."
Hua Jingxing also realized what his sixth uncle meant and responded immediately.
