185. Chapter 185 What’s in the Package



When I got home, it was exactly noon.

A group of children saw the two large packages and gathered around.

"Aunt, what gift did you bring me?"

"Aunt, did you bring me some White Rabbit candy?"

"Aunt..."

"Everything is there. I brought you a lot of things." Shen Ruoqing smiled and opened a package, revealing a beautifully wrapped candy box inside.

Shen Ruoqing took out the candy box and said, "This is called chocolate, a kind of candy, a specialty of Russia. Share it among you."

"chocolate!"

Just as the younger ones were about to take it, Old Lady Ji got the chocolate box first.

"I've heard of this. It's high-end candy. If I give it to these naughty kids, they'll eat it all in no time. Each of them take one, and I'll lock the rest in the cabinet and let them eat them slowly. You're really something. Your hands are too loose. How can they eat everything in one go?" said Old Mrs. Ji.

"Mom, I bought several boxes of this, enough for them to eat."

"That won't work either. You're so loose-handed. What other food did you buy? Give it all to me and I'll divide it." said Old Mrs. Ji.

"I also bought some Beijing Eight Pieces. These pastries are so delicious. I bought several boxes of them. Mom, you try them. There are also preserved fruits, which are also specialties. There are also crispy candies and canned food..." Shen Ruoqing took them out one by one.

Wow, most of this package is food.

"How much will this cost?"

Shen Ruoqing said with a smile: "Most of it was paid by Mu Bai, and I only contributed a small part of it."

"Oh, yes, there's also wine. This is BJ's Erguotou. I heard that this wine is delicious, so I brought two bottles for my brother."

"Good sister, let's have a drink at noon today?" Shen Xiangdong and others glanced towards Old Lady Ji.

Old Lady Ji glared at them unhappily: "We still have to work in the afternoon, why did you drink so much horse urine? Your sister finally brought some things here, are you going to drink them all at once? Don't touch these things, I want to put them all away."

Old Mrs. Ji was still the same. She locked most of the food in her cupboard and only took out a few cakes and chocolates to share with everyone.

"These are all good things, and they are also great as gifts during the Chinese New Year."

"Mom, a lot of these things have an expiration date and won't last until the New Year." Shen Ruoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She continued to unpack.

"This is a cashmere sweater I brought for mom. Look, it feels very comfortable. You can wear it in winter. Look, this sweater suits you very well."

"This feels good to the touch." Old Mrs. Ji couldn't let it go.

"And this silk scarf was given to me by an older brother when I was on the train. I'm giving it to my mother."

"I'm already old, why should I still wear a scarf? Since it's a gift from someone, just take it and wear it yourself." Old Mrs. Ji smiled happily.

"I don't like this. Mom, you are not old. In my eyes, you are the youngest."

"Oh, and there's tea. I bought some good tea, and..."

"Mu Bai also got me four military coats, one for each of my brothers. Take a look."

"Military coat!"

The four brothers' eyes lit up.

Military coats are very popular at this time. After all, only those with good connections can get military coats. Moreover, military coats are good-looking and warm. If you have a military coat at this time, it is a very face-saving thing.

"This military coat is not cheap, right? This military coat is 90% new, it must cost at least over 100 yuan, right?"

"It's too expensive for Mu Bai." Old Lady Ji frowned. "No merit, no reward. These things are too valuable, right? How can we take so many valuable things?"

Old Lady Ji counted on her fingers and realized that with so many things, it would cost at least seven or eight hundred yuan. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

"My dear, tell me the truth, why did Mu Bai suddenly send so many things to our family?" Old Mrs. Ji's tone became serious.

Shen Xiangdong and the others who were gesturing with their military coats also reacted: "Little sister, does Mu Bai have any request for our family?"

Shen Ruoqing thought for a while and said, "The Mu family is a well-known family in Beijing, so they don't lack these things. And Mu Bai does have something that he wants our help with. Mom, do you still remember the two old people who lived in the cowshed? They are Mu Bai's grandparents. Grandpa Hao and Grandma Hao actually have a share of these things. Mu Bai hopes that our family will take better care of his grandparents in the future."

"What? Those two are relatives of Mu Bai?" Shen Xiangnan said, "No wonder I saw Mu Bai collecting firewood for those two old people last winter."

Old Mrs. Ji sighed: "This child is thoughtful. Okay, let's take care of those two people in the future."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Old Mrs. Ji collected some food items that could be used by the public, such as military coats, flowered cloth for her two sisters-in-law, pens for Shen Hansong and the other boys, and hair rubber bands for Shen Xue and the other girls, and distributed them to them.

Then he packed up some food and asked Shen Xiangdong to wait until dark and then quietly deliver it to Hao Dezhong and the others.

After the things were distributed, Shen Ruoqing asked, "Mom, your birthday is next month, how do you want to arrange it?"

Shen Xiangdong said, "We had discussed hiring a chef to set up a few tables at home. But your sister-in-law is free now, so let her cook and invite a few more women from the village to help."

Shen Ruoqing nodded: "That's fine. I'll contact the meat and vegetables. It's our mother's birthday, so we can't be stingy with the banquet. I'll try to get some fresh food."

“How many tables should we set up?”

"We had six tables last time, but this time it's our mom's birthday, so we have to invite more people. Let's calculate how many people we need to invite first."

"Yes, all those elders must be invited."

A clinic is going to be built in Dashitou Village.

In fact, this clinic should have been built long ago. After the clinic was built, villagers can enjoy preferential treatment when getting medicine and other things in the future, which is a good thing for the people. But Dashitou Village was poor before, and they could not even get enough food to eat. How could they have spare money to build a clinic? It was only in the past two years that they used chemical fertilizers and sold some mountain products. The brigade saved some money and held a meeting to discuss the construction of the clinic.

Of course, the attending physician is still Doctor Li, and he is the only doctor in Dashitou Village.

However, Shen Ruoqing passed the internship training at the county hospital and also had a place at the health center.

After all, Shen Ruoqing still had to go to school, so Captain Tang discussed with everyone to select two more people to work as trainee nurses in the health center.

The position of intern nurse is a very lucrative one. If you do well, you may even get a recommendation to study at a medical school, and then you can become a real nurse when you graduate.

For a moment, everyone was staring at this position.
