So, before the Spring Festival, she cleaned and decorated her own house next door, preparing to welcome her parents-in-law to celebrate the New Year.
At the end of the year, the dividends from Ruixiang Garment Factory arrived to her account, and the financial pressure she had just felt after buying a house was immediately relieved. Before the New Year, Meili's underwear series was launched. With Wu Tianjiao's presence, it quickly occupied the capital and Shanghai markets, and sold out as soon as it was launched. It seems that she made a lot of money this time.
This is Lin Qingping and Mei Li's own business! It's different from cooperating with Ruixiang!
When the Spring Festival was approaching, I received a letter from Gu Youlian and Du Gen. They would also go to the capital with the two elders of the Gu family. This would be the first time for the whole family to celebrate the Spring Festival away from home.
When Lin Qingping received the letter, he calculated the days and found that they only had a few days left before they set out, so he hurriedly went shopping with Gu Juncheng and Zhiyuan and bought a lot of New Year's goods.
Zhiyuan was actually like a little squirrel and stockpiled a lot of goods.
On the day when the two elders of the Gu family arrived in the capital, the whole family went to the train station to pick them up.
The train arrived in the afternoon. As the crowd rushed out of the station, Lin Qingping saw five people from his hometown in the crowd from afar. Each of them was carrying bags of various sizes. Even the small Xiaomai had a bag on his back and a bundle in his arms.
"Dad! Mom! Big sister!" Lin Qingping stood on tiptoe and shouted loudly.
After shouting, I inexplicably felt that the people around me looked a little strange.
She glanced sideways and saw that it was Gu Juncheng who was staring at her.
This semester, I feel that he has lost a lot of weight, and his deep eyes look even more sharp.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?" she asked in a low voice.
"Nothing." Gu Juncheng touched her head.
As they were talking, the Gu family had already approached. Xiaomai happily ran to Zhiyuan, smiled, and called him softly, "Brother Zhiyuan."
Zhiyuan nodded like a brother, "Xiaomi, you are finally here."
The two elders of the Gu family and Gu Youlian and his wife also came forward to greet Lin Qingping warmly, but none of them spoke to Gu Juncheng. He was indeed a dull and taciturn person, and everyone in the family was a little afraid of him.
Gu Juncheng just silently took over the baggage from his parents, four in total...
"Dad, Mom, Big Sister, why did you bring so many things?" Lin Qingping was also shocked. "Don't you need to bring anything? I have bought you new clothes and all the daily necessities. Just come with one person."
"Your father brought you some local products from home," said the mother-in-law, with a hint of anger, "I've already told you that the capital is a big place with everything. Aren't they better than the things in our countryside? But your father insisted on bringing them!"
The family walked out of the station while talking.
After leaving the station, the mother-in-law finally realized what it meant that the capital was a big place. She was speechless and her eyes were overwhelmed. Especially when she saw foreigners, she tightly grasped her daughter's hand and her voice was shaking, "Look! Look, that's a foreigner!"
The taciturn father-in-law even scolded the mother-in-law, "Don't be so surprised. You act like you have never seen the world. It's embarrassing!"
Lin Qingping smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay, let's watch it openly. You can even go and say hello to the foreigners!"
The mother-in-law was frightened and shook her head repeatedly, "What are you talking about? No, no, no, no! People will think I'm crazy! I'm bringing shame to the country!"
The whole family laughed.
Gu Juncheng and Lin Qingping took them home on the bus. Along the way, even Gu Youlian, who had been to the provincial capital and seen the world, was amazed.
The capital is the capital!
When Lin Qingping brought them home and learned that the two bungalows were their homes, Gu Youlian was shocked again, "Pingzi, are you really planning to settle down in the capital? How much would two houses of this size cost?"
Lin Qingping explained to them that only one set was hers and the other was rented.
But this was enough to make Gu Youlian feel uneasy.
Lin Qingping welcomed them into the house he bought, intending to let the Gu family stay there temporarily.
As soon as I entered the house, I started to pack the large and small bags I brought from my hometown.
The two elders of the Gu family were obedient. They really didn't bring any clothes or daily necessities. They only brought food...
Cured chicken, duck, fish, cured meat, sausages and pickles filled five large snakeskin bags, and there were two large snakeskin bags of vegetables from the fields.
Gu Juncheng looked at the vegetables and was a little confused. "Isn't it hard to carry? There are no vegetables for sale here?"
"Your father said that you live in the capital and everything is expensive there. You should bring as much as you can and save some money," explained my mother-in-law.
"What about these?" Gu Juncheng pointed at a large bag of potatoes, a large bag of sweet potatoes, two large winter melons, and two large pumpkins. He had a headache. "Aren't these heavy?"
"And these!" Gu Youlian opened a bag that she had treated like a treasure all the way. Inside was full of eggs...
Gu Juncheng laughed out of anger, "You guys are almost like escorting a landmine along the way."
Lin Qingping didn't allow him to say anything more, and just hugged her mother-in-law's arm, "Mom, don't listen to him, I like potatoes and sweet potatoes. Thank you, but I'm tired of you."
The mother-in-law was delighted when she heard it, "I brought it to you because you like it."
Why were they afraid of being tired? They were originally worried that Lin Qingping might not be interested in these dirt lumps when they arrived in the capital. However, with so many people coming to eat and drink, wouldn't it cost a lot of money? They tried to save as much as possible. Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law didn't mind at all.
When giving something to someone, is there anything more gratifying than seeing the other person happily accept it?
Lin Qingping happily packed up the things brought by her parents-in-law. Gu Juncheng laughed at her, saying that she was so happy with just these things. She must be so easy to feed.
How could Gu Juncheng know that in her previous life, when she watched those short videos about the Chinese New Year, she felt so lost and regretful when she saw videos of her children filling up the trunks of their cars when they returned home for the Chinese New Year.
She had also worked hard outside on her own, and every time she came home, she would bring a car full of things for her parents and younger brother. However, when she returned, her car was empty, with nothing.
Before her parents and brother moved to the provincial capital, they often visited her, but they never brought her anything. Every time they came, they asked for things. She kept buying things for them. Later, she bought a house for them to live in...
Potatoes and sweet potatoes are indeed not worth much, and they are very heavy to carry all the way. But what Gu Juncheng doesn't know is that these things are even more important to Lin Qingping, very, very important...
She asked her parents-in-law and elder sisters to rest in the living room and let Gu Juncheng chat with them. She went to the kitchen and prepared to make some simple food to fill the Gu family's stomachs.
Just as she put the pot on the table, she heard footsteps behind her. She recognized it was Gu Juncheng. Before she could say anything, Gu Juncheng hugged her from behind.
