Volume 1 Chapter 246 The Prodigal Sheng Wanyan
If I don’t accept it, I’ll be wasting my mother-in-law’s kindness.
When she returns to Chengdu, she will go to the countryside to exchange some wild animals for her mother-in-law and send them to her.
But what Sheng's mother didn't know was that Gu's mother was not so generous to every relative.
Ever since Sheng Wanyan married Gu Tingxiao, Sheng's father and mother would always think of their in-laws and send some of the good things to them.
People come and go. If you value us, we will naturally value you too.
When two families become one, naturally you will be good to me and I will be good to you.
Sheng's mother took it, and it was up to her to decide how to distribute it after giving it to the Sheng family.
The three cans of milk powder were naturally for the two elderly people, and there were 5 cans of malted milk, two of which were given to the elderly by Sheng's mother.
Sheng's mother asked Sheng Wanyan to take the remaining three cans back and drink them.
"I don't want it. My mother-in-law prepared it for me."
"Save it for your dad to drink. Sister-in-law just had a baby and needs more nourishment."
"Your mother-in-law gave this to you, and this to you from your mother."
Sheng Wanyan looked at Gu Tingxiao for help. She really couldn't drink that much by herself.
When Gu Tingxiao noticed his wife's gaze, he immediately spoke up to help.
"Mom, save it for your dad and sister-in-law."
Since Gu Tingxiao had already spoken, Sheng's mother naturally felt embarrassed to refuse further. If she did, it would be considered as them being ungrateful.
"Okay, when the time comes, you can write a letter and thank my mother-in-law for me."
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded, then started eating.
Today's meal was very sumptuous, and Grandma Sheng and Mother Sheng felt sorry for them after the long journey.
Because I was worried that Sheng Wanyan would have a poor appetite during her pregnancy, I specially prepared some fine grains.
After dinner, Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao went back to rest. Before leaving, they gave the key to the house to Sheng's mother.
Sheng's mother often came to clean, feed the chickens, and saved 60 eggs for her, all of which were placed on the kitchen shelf.
Knowing they were coming back today, I came over to clean the house yesterday.
So there is no need to rush around packing up the things I brought from Kyoto.
When I was packing, I realized that I forgot to take the clothes I bought for my family. What a bad memory.
I can just wait until tomorrow to get it. Fortunately, I live close enough and it won’t be a hassle.
Sheng Wanyan looked at the things that Gu's mother prepared for them, which included 5 cans of milk powder and 5 cans of malted milk.
These are all for nourishing her body, and there are also a lot of diapers for children, plus the bottles, small clothes, socks and shoes I bought for the child last time at the Overseas Chinese Store.
I also prepared a lot of meat, just in case they didn’t eat well enough.
Sheng Wanyan asked Gu Tingxiao to take the meat to the cellar and boil water for a bath, while she put her clothes away.
After packing up their things, the two of them took a shower and went to bed to rest.
Sheng Wanyan was still a little uncomfortable returning to the army, but when she woke up in Kyoto she had something to do to entertain herself.
But in the army, I can only stay at home and daydream.
But there is one big advantage of being in the army, which is that she has a lot of time for herself.
Gu Tingxiao had already prepared breakfast, as he still had a few days of vacation left.
The two of them had just finished breakfast when Sheng's mother came over shortly afterwards.
There was a package in his hand, which contained translation materials and money sent by the newspaper last month.
When she arrived at the army early, Sheng's mother saw it and took it back and hid it.
This is something her daughter earned, she has to keep it well.
Instead of taking it home openly, she hid it secretly after returning home and no one in the family knew where she hid it.
Even Sheng's father didn't know that she had brought it back home, let alone the other people in the family.
Sheng Wanyan took the package back to the room and took out the things she bought for her elder at the Overseas Chinese Store for her to take back.
"Why are there so many things?"
Mother Sheng was shocked. Did her daughter move the entire Gu family back home?
"I bought these for you at the Overseas Chinese Store."
"They are two sets of skin care products, for face application."
Sheng Wanyan explained to her the steps of using skin care products and asked her to take good care of herself like Grandma Gu.
Especially in winter, the skin is very dry and needs more care.
She has looked at the ingredients of these skin care products and they are all very safe.
The moisturizing effect is very good, not worse than that of later generations.
Although skin care products of later generations are expensive, they contain too many additives.
“This… this is too expensive.”
"Not expensive, it's a rare opportunity."
"This coat is for you and grandma, and this skirt is for my sister-in-law."
"And this Zhongshan suit is for my grandfather, and the base clothes are for my father."
Sheng Wanyan naturally did not forget Pan Yue, as Pan Yue used to send her things from Kyoto.
Pan Yueke had bought her expensive things such as blouses, leather shoes and coats.
Mother Sheng was so amazed when she saw this. How much did these things cost? ! !
This girl has money to keep for herself. The child is about to be born, and there will be many places to spend money.
"This...did the Gu family say anything when you bought these?"
Gu's mother pulled her aside and asked in a low voice, the way her daughter spent money was something that no matter how rich the family was, they couldn't afford!
"No, I bought all the elders of the Gu family."
"Don't worry."
Mother Sheng felt relieved when she heard this. She was afraid that this girl only had her parents' home in her heart and would have a hard time in the Gu family.
"Did Xiao Gu say anything?"
"Mom, what are you thinking? I'm spending my own money."
"I can make money myself. Can't I honor my parents with the money I earn?"
"And Ting Xiao is not that kind of person. He supports me very much."
Mother Sheng glared at her unhappily. Was she just imagining things?
It was obvious that her daughter was too extravagant. Even though she knew that she could make money, she was afraid of her ability to spend money.
However, she didn't know that she had underestimated Sheng Wanyan. Sheng Wanyan spent money lavishly in the future, and it made her blood pressure rise just by looking at her.
Mother Sheng patted her chest and said, "That's good, that's good."
"When you give birth and recuperate, will the Gu family arrange this?"
Sheng's mother has always been worried about this problem. All members of the Gu family hold high positions, and her mother-in-law is also a person who has made contributions to the country.
It's not certain whether I can spare the time. If my mother-in-law is not available, I can take a leave.
Although work is important, in a mother's heart, nothing is more important than her children.
"My mother-in-law said she would come to take care of me, and she took three months off."
When Mother Sheng heard this, she nodded. Since her mother-in-law had made arrangements, she could rest assured.
"That's good. I'll ask your dad for leave and come to see you then."
"good."
Sheng Wanyan knew that her father had been promoted, and she was a little upset after he took such a long leave this time.
After returning this time, I must work hard to avoid being caught by others.
"Your father and I will return to Rongcheng at the beginning of next month."
“So soon?”
Didn’t Sheng’s parents originally plan to go back after Gu Tingxiao returned to the army in mid-April?
"Your father just got promoted, so it would be safer for you to go back early."
