Volume 1 Chapter 137 Buying a Gift
When did she become like this?
"Come here, Daddy will feed you."
Gu Tinghao took Gu Jingjing's porridge with a dark face.
Wang Chunmei wanted to say something, but when she saw the whole family looking at her with disapproval, she felt very aggrieved.
Gu Jingjing walked over to her father with red eyes. Gu Tinghao rubbed her head and fed her porridge mouthful by mouthful.
Sheng Wanyan watched the farce in the fourth family without saying a word. How could she, as an aunt, interfere in how her own parents treated their children?
"The porridge made by Third Aunt is delicious."
Gu Jingjing secretly glanced at Sheng Wanyan. Sheng Wanyan would not target a child. She smiled and served her another bowl and placed it in front of her.
"If you like to drink, drink more. Tomorrow your aunt will make you some egg cakes."
Gu Jingjing nodded shyly. Third aunt was as gentle as the eldest aunt.
Without Wang Chunmei's targeting, Sheng Wanyan still enjoyed her meal very much.
Her mother-in-law and husband both spoke up for her, so the matter was over without her having to do anything.
"My daughter-in-law, go wash the dishes."
Wang Chunmei, the fourth brother's sister-in-law, was immediately unhappy when she heard this. Shouldn't the third sister-in-law be doing the work today?
"Isn't it the third sister-in-law who is doing the dishes?"
"Why? I cook for you and wash the dishes for you?"
Mother Gu was so angry that she laughed. What kind of sweet dream was this?
Do you want her to feed the food to her mouth in the future?
"Go when I tell you to!"
Gu Tinghao looked at her with a dark face, and Wang Chunmei reluctantly went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
She also wanted to take Gu Jingjing to wash the dishes with her, but when she saw her husband playing with their daughter, she suddenly stopped daring.
Wang Chunmei was washing dishes, listening to the occasional laughter coming from outside, and felt even more uncomfortable.
"Third daughter-in-law, go with mom to buy gifts for the return visit later."
Sheng Wanyan is going to return home the day after tomorrow. Gu's mother wants to buy more gifts for the Sheng family so that the Sheng family can rest assured to leave their daughter to the Gu family.
"good."
Wang Chunmei listened to the general idea and felt that her mother-in-law was biased towards the third family. She didn't even take her shopping when she returned home.
Sheng Wanyan is so partial right after she got married. What will she be like in the future?
If this continues, all the things in the house will be given to the first and third wives, and what will the fourth wife have to do with them?
Don't think she doesn't know that Mr. Gu likes the third child the most. He always praises Gu Tingxiao and only says a few perfunctory words to his husband.
It seems that they have to split up, otherwise they will be left with nothing in the future.
The Gu family chatted for a while, and then everyone went to work. They all worked in state-owned enterprises and were very busy at work.
In the end, only Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, Mother Gu who had taken a leave, and she and Gu Tingxiao were left.
Sheng Wanyan followed Gu's mother out to buy things, and Gu Tingxiao followed behind as a laborer.
Gu's mother took her to the Overseas Chinese Store. It was her first time to visit the legendary shopping paradise.
The supply and marketing cooperative is a Soviet-style building with the national flag hanging on the top, which looks very grand.
In fact, it is not that magnificent, but compared with the supply and marketing place, it is definitely not on the same level.
There are more categories here, the quality is better, and there are many rare goods. It is like a small shopping mall with all kinds of things.
The most important thing is that foreign products are sold here, and everyone thinks that foreign products are good.
But in this era, Sheng Wanyan, as a person who has experienced it, has to admit that foreign countries are indeed more developed than China.
Especially the United States, which is also a leader in later technology.
"Yan'er, buy some nutritional supplements for my grandparents, two pens for my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and two boxes of fruit."
"Go buy another ten kilograms of meat and two pig trotters later, and Ting Xiao will go get some prey."
"What do you think?"
Mother Gu had already made up her mind, but she still asked Sheng Wanyan for her opinion.
"I'll listen to my mother."
Sheng Wanyan thought this arrangement was very good. The things were very practical and it would not bring shame to the Gu family.
When Mother Gu heard her words, she knew that her arrangement was to her liking, and she immediately rushed to buy things.
The two pens were not cheap, but Gu's mother was willing to spend them.
Moreover, the gifts she gave to the other two daughters-in-law when they returned home were no less than what is here.
Gu Tingxiao passed by a place selling skirts and saw the most conspicuous pink dress hanging there.
Looking at Sheng Wanyan who was walking in front with her arm around Gu's mother, he thought that this dress would definitely look good on his wife.
My wife has fair skin and good temperament, and she looks good in anything she wears.
Gu Tingxiao had no money on him, so when Sheng Wanyan was choosing a return gift, he secretly asked Gu's mother for 50 yuan.
"Mom, lend me 50."
"What for? Where's your money?"
Gu's mother looked at him warily. Was this man trying to hide some private money?
"I gave all my money to my wife."
Gu's mother was satisfied when she heard this, and she would definitely give the wedding money to her daughter-in-law for safekeeping.
Do you still want to manage your own money?
What sweet dream are you having?
Mother Gu weighed the issue for a moment and then asked him a tentative question after careful consideration.
"Then what do you want 50 for?"
"Buy a skirt for my wife." Gu Tingxiao said.
When Gu's mother heard that he wanted to buy a beautiful dress for his third daughter-in-law, she quickly took out 50 yuan and gave it to him.
"Remember to return it to me."
"Um."
As soon as Gu Tingxiao got the money, he went to buy the skirt. He already knew exactly what size Sheng Wanyan wore.
Sheng Wanyan also brought some money with her, as she wanted to buy more things for her family.
The things sold in the Overseas Chinese Store are very durable. I can’t stay in Kyoto for long. The Sheng family is waiting for me to return home, so I have to go back to Chengdu.
So she planned to buy more things for her family so that she could feel at ease.
She has no restraint when it comes to buying things, and Mother Gu gets a headache seeing that she wants to buy everything she sees.
But she used her own money to honor her elders, so naturally Mother Gu would have no objection.
Regardless of her mother's objection and Gu Tingxiao's indulgence, she was even more willing to do it.
I bought three Zhongshan suits and three pairs of cloth shoes for Grandpa Sheng, and three sets of clothes and three pairs of shoes for Grandma Sheng.
Sheng's father and mother were not left out either. I bought three sets of clothes for Sheng's father and two skirts and a pair of leather shoes for Sheng's mother.
As for Sheng Wanze and Pan Yue, she bought two sets of clothes each. After all, her brother and sister-in-law were really nice to her.
When I got married, Sheng Wanze gave me so much money for my dowry, it must have been with Pan Yue's permission.
So it’s not too much to buy something for them. She will naturally be nice to whoever treats her well.
Of course, Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, and Father Gu and Mother Gu will not be left out, otherwise it would be bad if others said that she just got married and only has her natal family in her mind.
Sheng Wanyan still bought three sets of clothes and three pairs of shoes for Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu.
Father Gu's clothes were chosen by Mother Gu. She knew exactly what kind of clothes Father Gu wore and what size they were.
Mother Gu chose two sets of ordinary and cheap clothes, fearing that she would not have enough money.
