Chapter 54: Choosing a Gift

A few days later, Gu Muruan received a call from her mother: "Nuannuan, are you busy?"

There weren't many patients that day, so Gu Muruan was looking at medical records in the office. "I'm not busy, Mom. What's wrong?"

"I have good news for you. Your eldest sister is due, and we're about to have another baby!" Mother Gu said happily. "Besides, she's going to your hospital this afternoon to give birth! Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it and bring it to you."

"So soon, Mom, I want to eat the blueberry-flavored egg tarts you baked." Gu Murun knew that her mother liked to bake buns and egg tarts herself, but the young ladies in the family were all controlling their weight and rarely consumed such high-calorie foods. One time, her mother baked some for her, and she ate a lot of them out of courtesy. As a result, she became the main target of Ms. Gu's feeding. Gu Muwan also said to her, "Nuanbao, you will regret it. When you gain weight, Ms. Gu will not stop feeding you. However, Nuanbao, you are still too thin now. You should eat more to make up for it."

Gu Muran was not worried about her weight. After all, she had never grown taller and her weight had never exceeded 45 kg.

"Okay, Mom will prepare the ingredients right away and bake it when you are about to leave in the afternoon. It will still be hot when you take it with you!" Mother Gu was very happy, and her Nuan Nuan was no longer polite to her.

Gu Munuan put down the phone, her thoughts drifting for a while: As for her eldest sister, Gu Muxia, Gu Munuan only knew that she was also very gentle to her. As for their contact, it was not much. Her brother-in-law seemed to be called Jiang Huai. The Jiang family was also a low-key wealthy family, and they were well matched with the Gu family. Gu Muwan had heard that her eldest sister's mother-in-law treated her very well, even more so than her own daughter. Not to mention after she got pregnant, she was always by her side. Her brother-in-law, Jiang Huai, was the same. He was a man who doted on his wife. Unlike Gu Mocheng's steady demeanor, Jiang Huai had a youthful air. Unlike Gu Moci's aloofness, Jiang Huai seemed easy to get along with. Gu Munuan had only met him two or three times, and he looked gentle and elegant.

Gu Muran thought again. As an aunt, should she also prepare a gift for the baby that was about to be born in her sister's belly? She still remembered the first time she went shopping with Gu's mother and others. She felt that she was just a member of the Gu family, not a member of the family at all. But now it was different. What should she buy? Should she ask Wanwan?

But forget it. If Wanwan knew, she would definitely give it to her. She should choose for herself. She had never squandered her salary freely, and she wanted to experience the pleasure of spending her own money. So, she first searched Baidu for famous domestic baby product brands, then opened the shopping app and carefully selected them.

It was lunchtime, and Gu Munuan returned to her apartment. She picked up the private chef's nutritious meal her second brother had ordered and ate while she was choosing. After browsing for half an hour, she chose a baby pillow and doll gift set. Although it was small, the three dolls were not cheap. Over 5,000 yuan, well, that was nearly a month's salary for her...

But thinking about the tens of thousands of dollars worth of rattles Gu's mother had bought, Gu Muruan still placed the order, hoping her sister and her family wouldn't mind. Since there was a physical store for this brand in S City, if she placed the order now, it would be delivered tomorrow morning.

"I don't feel bad about it, I don't feel bad about it. It's not even as expensive as the clothes Gu Muwan bought!" Gu Muruan kept muttering to herself. After returning home, she had never spent her own money except for the puzzle she bought for little Gu Jingnian.

Thinking about the bags Gu Muwan bought for her, although it was Gu Moci who swiped the card in the end, it also showed Gu Muwan's spending level. In the future, she would have to slowly get used to her family's spending habits, otherwise, if Gu Muwan dragged her shopping in the future, her blood pressure would definitely go through the roof.

There were also several cards that Gu Moci had given her, which she hadn't touched yet. The key point was that she hadn't had the chance to use them. She always felt that having clothes to wear was enough. After spending more than half a month with Gu Muwan, she still hadn't learned how to spend money...
