Chapter 481: Gift Giving

"It's delicious. The salted duck is really delicious. Auntie, please try it. The salted duck bought by my third brother is much more delicious than the one bought by Ah Bei. I guess this is the taste of love."

Jiang Fubao was speechless again.

Zhu Yingqiu burst into tears and laughed.

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

This meal was a pleasant one.

There was a smile on everyone's face.

After the meal, the plates and bowls were cleared away by the maids and the table was wiped clean.

Jiang Fubao took a sip of the hot tea.

The greasy feeling in the stomach was immediately suppressed by the slightly bitter tea.

I feel relaxed all over.

"Now that we've had enough, it's time to give gifts!" Jiang Fubao put down his cup, stood up with a smile and opened the box.

"These are hairpins for my grandma, my second aunt and my two sisters-in-law." Jiang Fubao took out the hairpin first.

Everyone's hairpin is different. Grandma's is a peach blossom hairpin, which seems to tell the life of the peach tree. The blooming peach blossom is in the middle, with a flower bud on the left and a small longevity peach hanging on the right. It is made to be lifelike, pink but not gaudy, and the leaves transition from emerald green to pale green, which is very suitable for older people.

My aunt's hibiscus hairpin was already on her head.

The whole body is royal red with a little gradient, the edges are dotted with light gold outlines, and the stamens are made of pure gold threads. There are three spring-colored tender leaves on both sides of the hibiscus flower, which match the color of the flower very well and look very gentle.

Not to mention women in their thirties, it is also suitable for women in their twenties.

Wearing this hairpin, Zhu Yingqiu looked less fierce than usual.

The second aunt’s is an osmanthus hairpin.

This hairpin is a little special. Other hairpins seem to have real flowers inserted on them, but the osmanthus hairpin looks like a branch broken off from an osmanthus tree. If it didn't feel cold to the touch and there was no strong osmanthus fragrance, no one would have thought that this was an imitation flower hairpin.

In the middle of the dark green leaves, there are densely packed small yellow tender flowers.

A closer look revealed that they were all made of gold.

I don’t know how much effort it takes to make so many small flowers and inlay them together.

But the price is also very low.

If it were sold in Lianshan Town, it would cost at least ten taels more.

A way to make money suddenly appeared in Jiang Fubao's mind.

But it only took a second to give up the idea.

This is not modern.

There are indeed bandits in the mountains. The journey is long and if you encounter them, not only will you lose your goods, but you will also lose your life. But if you hire an escort agency, the difference in profit will go into your own pocket and there won't be much left.

Besides, the shop doesn’t have many items and you can’t buy too much at one time.

When you think about it this way, it’s really not a good idea.

No wonder the jewelry in Lianshan Town is so ordinary. It must have been made by craftsmen from Chang'an Town or Linxian County.

"Oh, it's so beautiful. It's really Jiangnan. The jewelry sold there is prettier than ours. Look at this osmanthus flower. I just thought Fubao picked a branch of osmanthus for me from Jiangnan, but when I think about it carefully, it's out of season. It turns out to be a hairpin."

Sun Pingmei loves to eat and looks beautiful.

She took the hairpin and asked Jiang Eryong to help her put it in her hair.

Jiang Fubao personally put the peach blossom hairpin on grandma's head.

"Sister-in-law, these are peonies for you."

"Second sister-in-law, this is a magnolia hairpin for you."

Each hairpin is suitable for them.

Peony is gorgeous and sincere, just like my sister-in-law's character.

The magnolia flower is pure and flawless, just like the soul of my second sister-in-law.

Finally, Jiang Fubao took out an orchid hairpin and gave it to his mother.

"Mom, let me help you put it on." Jiang Fubao stood on tiptoe and raised his arms. Zhang Yanzi quickly lowered her head.

This orchid hairpin is lavender with a hint of blue, and paired with green ash leaves, it looks very simple and elegant.

Zhang Yanzi looked even more aloof with the hairpin on.

She looked directly at her daughter with a smile in her eyes. Even though she didn't say a word, one could tell how happy she was from her eyes.

"My sisters have some too." After seeing the adults off, Jiang Fubao realized that her three sisters were looking at her expectantly.

She ran to the box and took out three shackles.

One is the lotus dance, one is the butterfly dance, and the other is the lantern dance.

It's very lifelike.

The lotus flowers look as if they were just picked from the river. One longer look at them and you’ll feel that midsummer is not over yet.

The butterfly swing is similar to the dragonfly swing, but it is equipped with a silver spring, and when it moves, butterflies will fly.

The Lantern Step Swing looks like the waist pendant that Shen Hechi gave her last time, but it is a smaller version.

Inside the hollow gold and silver lantern is a small golden bead.

Lanterns like this are hung on both sides of the streets in Jiangnan City.

Wearing it on my head, I feel like I’m back in Jiangnan City.

"The lotus one is for the eldest sister, the lantern one is for the second sister, and the butterfly one is for the third sister." Jiang Fubao recited as he distributed the three busha to the sisters.

"Why is mine a butterfly and my second sister's is a lantern?" In fact, Jiang Huanyu likes the lantern more, but the butterfly one is also beautiful.

Anyway, it was given to me by my sister. She likes anything made of wood.

But she is a talkative person, so she asked.

"My second sister is always in the kitchen. The kitchen is dim in the evening. If you light more lamps, it will be brighter when she cooks. Otherwise, she will add too much salt and choke you to death. Don't dare to compete with my second sister!" Jiang Fubao joked.

"Hahaha, this kid." Zhang Jinlan couldn't stop laughing.

"I won't steal it. The butterfly one looks good too. Thank you, sister. Look, does it look good on me?" Jiang Huanyu put the butterfly swing on her head by herself.

She shook her head and asked everyone in the hall.

She didn't stop until everyone said it looked good.

"Fubao, where is daddy's?" Jiang Siyin looked at his daughter eagerly.

As a result, after giving gifts to everyone from the oldest to the youngest, his gift was still nowhere to be found.

There was anticipation and some disappointment on his face.

It was as if Jiang Fubao would burst into tears the next second if he forgot to give him a gift.

"Of course I can't forget my father." Jiang Fubao was afraid that his father would cry, so he quickly took out the waist chain.

This waist chain is cheaper than Meng Bujiu's, because she didn't bring enough money.

I was also embarrassed to ask Brother Bujiu to borrow too much.

Otherwise just buy something similar.

The waist chain is a mixture of white jade and gold chains intertwined together.

Worried that his father wouldn't know how to tie it, Jiang Fubao helped him tie it himself. His father had a thin waist, similar to Meng Bujiu's, and when it was tied around the waist of his loose coat, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Jiang Fubao glanced secretly at his mother.

Sure enough, mother's eyes were always on father.

hey-hey.

She couldn't disturb her father and mother tonight.

"This is the gift I picked for Dad. Does Dad like it?" Jiang Fubao looked up and asked.

"I like it. Daddy thought that Fubao had forgotten about him." Jiang Siyin raised the back of his hand and wiped his eyes.

I saw that the corners of his eyes were wet.
