"Not to mention anything else, just this time when my aunt is leaving, we need to pack some luggage for her properly."
"We don't know where my second brother is yet. He might be in some remote mountain forest, desert, or island. It's definitely difficult to get supplies there. We need to make sure my aunt has everything she needs."
Bling explained each point one by one, pulling Sangs out of her slump and brainstorming with her.
"Don't take so much with you this time. It'll be difficult for your aunt to carry it on the road. We'll send it to her later," Sangshen said.
Bling had no objection: "I'll do whatever you say."
As she spoke, she lifted the quilt, got off the kang (a heated brick bed), took out paper and pen, lay on the pillow, and wrote down all the supplies she had just mentioned. Then she made a copy, one for herself and one for Sangshen.
"With this list in hand, let's get everything ready in the next couple of days, and try to get as many sets as possible, because my second brother, sister-in-law, and the kids will need them too."
"Lingling, you're so smart." Sangshen put her share under her pillow.
Bling rolled her eyes at him and scolded, "You smooth talker!"
"Oh, right, and milk powder and malted milk powder too, the more the better." She added, "I've also heard that seaweed and dried shrimp are good for the baby if pregnant women eat them. Go find Dongzi tomorrow and see if he can get some."
"It's not just for my second brother and sister-in-law, but also for our daughter. It's good for her to eat more so she can get enough calcium."
Buling gave her detailed instructions, something she would never have imagined she could do before.
"Okay," Mulberry agreed. "Would you like shrimp and fish?"
"Give me more salted fish, it can hold a lot. Give me less shrimp," Buling said after thinking for a moment.
"good."
With the list ready, the next step is to prepare the supplies.
Because they were worried that their aunt would suffer, Sangshen and Buling considered all aspects. The list included everything from clothing and food to housing and daily necessities, and the whole page was filled with it.
Moreover, the two of them are rich and willful, and they don't intend to be stingy. They buy everything in multiples, just in case it's inconvenient to communicate and make their aunt feel bad.
The eldest aunt saw everything the two of them did. Although she said not to spend money or cause trouble, she was actually happy inside.
Time passed slowly, and my second brother's reply arrived, along with a train ticket.
Spring has arrived, and the day of parting is fast approaching...
