Chapter 51 Mid-Autumn Festival



After hearing what Jianshu said, Gao Xue had no choice but to accept it. Although their unit also distributed mooncakes, they were only one pound. There were many people in the family, so one extra piece could be enough for her parents to eat, so there was no need to think about saving it all for them.

"Okay, I won't be polite with you. If you need any stamps, just tell me and I'll keep an eye out for you." Jianshu was so polite, she had to pay more attention in the future. She would ask her colleagues to keep an eye out for them and also ask other places if there were any special stamps, and leave them for Jianshu.

Jianshu didn't expect that a piece of mooncake could make people work hard. If he knew, he would definitely be very happy.

Although Gao Xue had promised to keep an eye on her before, at most she would just remember to keep it for her, and there was no need to think about anything else.

It’s different now. As long as this post office has some, they will definitely keep a set for Jianshu, and they will also ask about those in other places.

This kind of thing is more convenient for the people inside the post office. It would not be so easy for Jianshu to collect it on its own.

Gao Xue took out all the stamps from this period and showed them to Jian Shu. "Xiao Shu, these are all the stamps from this period. Do you need any?"

Jianshu took a look and found that it had not been long since she last came here, and she only bought five sets of unsold stamps. After paying, she saw that it was getting late, so she went home.

There will definitely be a lot of delicious food in the evening, so she plans to just have something casual to eat at noon.

I was too lazy to cook, so I just took out a spicy hot pot for lunch. I also took a portion of the food I had prepared for Xiao Pang.

After dinner, Jianshu prepared dinner for Xiaopang, then carried the backpack, took the bus and went directly to the compound.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and Jianshu has prepared a lot of things, including two rabbits, 20 salted duck eggs, 10 salted chicken eggs, homemade dried fruits, jams, chili sauces, and mooncakes, which are essential for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

This gift was very generous at that time, but she had a special relationship with the Zhao family, so there was no need to worry too much about it.

It's not that she wants to be blindly generous, but she has received a lot of things from the Zhao family during this period. The last time Meng Ying came to see Jian Shu during her vacation, she gave Jian Shu some bills. They are not worried that she has no money. After all, Jian Yucheng used to have a high position and has no shortage of money.

But many things cannot be bought even with money, they all require tickets. There are two soldiers in their family, and Meng Ying has a high position, so they are not short of tickets.

I was worried that the girl I had watched grow up was not living a good life, so I would give her some subsidies from time to time.

Although Jianshu had a lot of things in her space, she couldn't say it out loud, so she had to accept their kindness, believing that there would always be a chance to return them.

"Knock knock knock" Jianshu knocked on the door.

Meng Ying was preparing today's ingredients in the kitchen. When she heard a knock on the door, she knew it was Jianshu, so she hurried over to open the door.

When he saw Jianshu, he smiled and said, "Shushu is here, come in quickly."

"Aunt." Jian Shu greeted Meng Ying and put down the backpack after coming in.

Meng Ying saw what Jian Shu took out of the backpack and tapped her head with her finger, saying in a stern tone, "Why are you bringing anything home? We have everything we need. Don't waste money. Just keep it for yourself."

Jian Shu stepped forward and hugged Meng Ying's arm, shaking it and saying coquettishly, "Aunt, didn't you say coming here is like going home? This is my filial piety to you and Uncle Zhao, so don't be polite to me."

He walked to the backpack and started taking out the things inside.

"I made this mooncake myself. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, so how can I miss mooncakes? Why don't you try my craftsmanship?"

Didn’t Uncle Zhao like the hot sauce I brought last time? So I made two more bottles and brought them over, as well as your favorite jam and Lingling’s dried fruits.

The salted duck eggs and salted chicken eggs were made earlier and have just been pickled. I brought them here for you to try. They are best paired with porridge or something.

These two rabbits are for dinner. Tonight, I'll show you how good my cooking skills are by making braised rabbit meat."

Originally, Meng Ying had no intention of blaming Jian Shu, and seeing her acting coquettishly, how could she still blame her?

I had no choice but to say, "You! Don't do this next time, okay? Coming here is like going home, what are you bringing with you?"

"Hey, I got it!" She agreed nicely, but what she did in the end was up to her.

How could Meng Ying, who had watched her child grow up, not know what she was thinking? But she also knew that she couldn't stop it, and it was also the child's good intentions. It would be hard to hurt her feelings, so she could only give her more support in the future.

"Your Uncle Zhao is out for something right now. Lingling and Ruirui are doing their homework in the room. Go in and play with them for a while."

Before Jianshu could go in, the two little guys ran out after hearing the noise.

Seeing Jianshu, they rushed over happily.

"Sister Shushu, you're here."

"Sister Shushu, I miss you so much."

Jianshu enjoyed the hug between the two and broke free after a while.

"I missed you guys too, so I came to see you." She was very pleased with the intimacy between the two.

"Are you going back today?" Zhao Yueling asked Jian Shu expectantly.

When the two families lived next door to each other, not only did they see each other every day, but she could even sleep with Sister Shu occasionally.

Ever since Sister Shu moved out, I only see her once every many days, and she doesn’t stay long before leaving.

Jian Shu had to go to work tomorrow, and it was quite far from here, so she ignored Zhao Yueling's expectant eyes and said, "Sister, you still have to go to work tomorrow, so you must go back today? But I will have dinner before leaving."

Zhao Shuling's eyes dimmed a little when she heard Jianshu say that she couldn't stay, but she became happy again when she heard that they could have dinner together. It was still early and there was still some time before dinner.

After chatting for a while, Jianshu temporarily left the Zhao family.

There were still some families in the compound who had a good relationship with the Jian family and had frequent exchanges with them. After Jian Yucheng passed away, they also cared about Jian Shu and always invited her to visit their home.

Since I'm here this time, I have to pay him a visit, otherwise it would be unreasonable.

I took the salted duck eggs and hot sauce mooncakes I had prepared and went to visit each one. By the time I left the last house, my originally empty backpack was almost full.

The food Jianshu sent was all homemade, which seemed quite expensive to other families, but the families here were all nice, so it wasn't a big deal.

They were all very close relatives, and they also sent gifts in return.

The gifts they gave in return were quite expensive, perhaps because they wanted to subsidize Jianshu. They included high-end products like malted milk powder, as well as some fabrics, candies and other things.

Anyway, not only did he not lose money on this trip, he actually made a profit, which made Jianshu feel very embarrassed. It was as if he was being robbed.

But I couldn't resist the grandparents, uncles and aunts from several families, so I had to accept it.

If I hadn’t known that Jianshu was planning to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Zhao family today, I would have asked her to stay for dinner!
