An ordinary wooden bed was decorated in a beautiful pink color. There was a desk next to it with a large vase of wild flowers from the mountains on it. A bamboo wind chime was hung on the window, and paintings bought from somewhere were hung on the wall. They looked strange, but also very warm.
Because every item here was made for her by her family.
The room was not big, but it was divided into an inner and outer room. It was obvious that this family still valued girls. It was unlike what she had heard in the past, that girls in the countryside were sold for money.
"This was made by my mother. I'm giving it to you since we meet for the first time," Sui'an generously pushed out a box.
The cream cake that Zhao Taohua made using space is still very exquisite in this era.
"This is a pastry. Did your mother make it?"
Xue Jinyu was surprised and thought that the Zhao family's sister-in-law was really skillful. She had never seen such pastries before.
"For you."
Sui'an had already taken out a food box from the side and put the cake in it. Xue Jinyu recognized the food box; it was made by the Lin family.
"This pastry looks expensive, how can I have the nerve to accept it from you," but Xue Jinyu really liked the pastry. After thinking about it, she took off a jade pendant from her body and handed it to Sui'an.
"I'm giving it to you. If you become my sister in the future, it'll be a gift. By the way, what's your name?" Xue Jinyu felt more at ease taking it after she felt this way.
"My name is Zhao Sui'an."
"Happy New Year."
Xue Jinyu wondered, if her mother really married Zhao Jiadalang, would she change her name to Zhao Jinyu?
It's very strange.
Sui'an accepted Xue Jinyu's jade pendant and went out for a walk happily. When he was about to leave, Xue Yazhi saw that Xue Jinyu was holding a box in her hand.
"Why are you still taking other people's things?"
Xue Yazhi asked.
Xue Jinyu curled her lips and said, "I don't have any. This is a gift from the younger sister of the Zhao family. I also returned the gift. Mother, uncle, grandpa, and grandma, look at this cake. It's really beautiful. It is said that the aunt of the Zhao family made it herself."
As she spoke, Xue Jinyu took out the cake from the box, which also included two bamboo spoons. After showing them to everyone, she scooped a spoonful for everyone to taste.
"It's delicious, and tastes surprisingly good..."
The whole family sat on the ox cart returning to the city, each with a spoon, and the meal was particularly delicious.
"The Zhao family became rich in the early days because they discovered the raw materials for ice jelly in the mountains. I think it was probably because the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family was quite capable," Foreman Lin said with emotion.
Xue Yazhi also had some idea in her mind.
She is very satisfied with the Zhao family.
…
It was not until the housewarming party was over that Zhao Taohua discovered that there was an extra jade pendant in Sui'an's room.
After asking, I found out that she had already exchanged gifts with the girl from the Xue family.
"You're quite sincere," Zhao Taohua said with amusement, "but her return gift was a little awkward. If we meet again, you should give her something else. Don't let her think you're taking advantage of her."
"Then what should I make up?" Sui'an didn't understand all this. She just thought the young lady was pretty, so she gave her the gift without thinking too much.
Zhao Taohua was stunned. The Zhao family really didn't have anything valuable.
There is a safe in her space, which contains a few decent pieces of jewelry, but she dare not take them out. Both the workmanship and quality are far beyond this era. She is afraid that taking them out will bring disaster.
"Forget it, let's talk about it later. By the way, don't give away the cakes that your mother made for you easily in the future."
She also felt sorry for Sui'an, who had never eaten anything at such a young age. As her daughter, she always wanted to give her the best.
"Well, my sister is different, so I gave it to her."
Sui'an seems to like Xue Jinyu very much.
"That's good."
"Third sister, are you in the room?"
At this time, Zhao Sanzhu came over.
