Chapter 474 The gift was very extravagant.
Jiang Zhiyuan finally returned home that evening.
Jiang Chunyu didn't ask how the bandits and highwaymen were dealt with, or whether their families were sent elsewhere.
She was only responsible for arresting people; she didn't care about what happened next.
Jiang Zhiyuan rarely talks about military matters at home.
Upon returning, he first went to the bedroom to change his clothes, then glanced at his youngest son before speaking with Jiang Chunyu and Jiang Yuze.
"You even drove here?"
"Yes, I had a friend bring it over."
"Can you stay a few more days this time?"
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Jiang Yuze immediately looked up at his sister; the Mid-Autumn Festival would be over by next week.
"Sister, can you take me to school tomorrow?"
"Can."
Hearing his sister say it was okay, Jiang Yuze immediately became happy.
His classmates all know that he has older brothers, older sisters, and younger brothers, but they have only seen his older brother Zhao Jie and have never seen his amazing older sister.
Seeing the siblings talking, Jiang Zhiyuan turned and went to the study.
Before dinner, Zhao Yanan also came out dressed in long sleeves and trousers, with a hat on her head, ready to eat with everyone.
She was considered an older mother, so her recovery was slower.
Jiang Zhiyuan arranged for her to take three months of maternity leave so that she could recover properly.
Originally, they had no plans to have another child, but it happened unexpectedly, and Zhao Yanan was unwilling to have an abortion and insisted on giving birth.
Jiang Zhiyuan naturally hoped for many children and blessings. He only had one son and one daughter, which was far too few compared to Lin Xiao, and even compared to his other comrades.
However, he was more worried about Zhao Yanan's health.
When they first found out they were pregnant, Jiang Zhiyuan and Zhao Yanan almost got into a fight over whether or not to keep the baby.
In the end, the two decided to keep the unexpected child.
Aunt Wu was setting the table, Tao Hong and Zhao Yanan were talking, and Lin Xiao and Jiang Zhiyuan were sitting together reading the newspaper.
Jiang Chunyu and Jiang Yuze took out everyone's gifts together.
Looking at the red cloak that was exactly the same as the one worn by Jiang Qing's child, Zhao Yanan's gaze softened.
Jiang Chunyu's gifts were very extravagant, which showed that she had put a lot of thought into them.
Like Lin Xiao, Jiang Zhiyuan also consumed cigarettes and alcohol, and his cigarettes and alcohol were specially supplied by Lin Lao, which Jiang Chunyu obtained from him.
Jiang Chunyu brought two jars of his homemade wine to each of the two families, each jar weighing ten jin.
This can be consumed by both men and women.
In Jiang Yuze's room, Jiang Chunyu left him a lot of candied fruit, all of which were dried fruits from his spatial realm.
This belongs exclusively to Jiang Yuze; no one else has it.
Tao Hong and Zhao Yanan were also given fabrics, all kinds of fabrics, about a dozen kinds.
Both companies have plenty of receipts, but even if they had the money and receipts, they couldn't buy such beautiful fabric.
Tao Hong touched the fabric in her hand, her eyes filled with joy: "This is the capital city after all; the supplies are much more abundant than in our Ningcheng."
Her four sons are all grown up, and her eldest son's wife is already pregnant. The other three sons are also about the age to get married, so having this fabric will save her a lot of trouble.
Even though the fabrics were delivered to Tao Hong's heart, she still clung to the things Jiang Chunyu had prepared for her.
"Can these be bought in Beijing?"
If possible, she would shamelessly call the old man, who was about to have a great-grandson, and ask him to buy a few identical sets for his great-grandson or great-granddaughter.
"They're not available; most of them are from Hong Kong."
"oh."
Tao Hong was a little disappointed, but not much; at least she saw the design and could make it herself.
Jiang Chunyu glanced at Tao Hong: "Auntie, is Xiang Dong's wife about to give birth?"
"Not yet, it will be at the end of the year, around the time of the Chinese New Year. If it's delayed, it might have to wait until after the New Year."
Tao Hong had been counting down the days. "Your uncle and I have already discussed it. We'll spend the Spring Festival in Xiangdong this year. We'll leave on the 20th of the twelfth lunar month."
"There's no time to waste."
Jiang Chunyu explained, "I have a friend in Gangcheng. I will write to him when I get there, and it should be able to be sent by the end of the year."
"Never mind, never mind."
Tao Hong was the first to refuse, saying, "It's too much trouble."
If we contact the port city now and get caught, it will cause endless trouble.
Although she liked the things Jiang Chunyu gave Sheng Sheng, she absolutely couldn't let Jiang Chunyu take this risk.
Jiang Chunyu didn't say anything, but he still planned to send a set to Tao Hong after New Year's Day.
Luckily, she has plenty of space, so she'll just send four sets, one for each of the four Lin brothers.
She doesn't care how many children they have; each family can wear one set of clothes.
That's how it is now, the eldest wears it, then the second eldest wears it, then the second eldest wears it, then the third eldest wears it.
These clothes are for babies, and they'll only be worn a few times before the child grows up.
This cape alone will probably last until I'm five years old.
Anyway, she prepared four sets to avoid trouble later.
Okay, that's decided.
Tao Hong was unaware that Jiang Chunyu had prepared a set of gifts for her son. She thought that she had gone to too much trouble by mentioning it, and that Jiang Chunyu wouldn't write to the port city.
If she had known, she definitely would have stopped it.
Dinner was cooked by Tao Hong and Aunt Wu together, and Tao Hong's cooking skills were far superior to Aunt Wu's.
Lin Xiao and Tao Hong's family has never needed anyone because Tao Hong doesn't work, and she's an excellent cook.
For Tao Hong, cleaning, cooking, and laundry are simple and easy tasks.
If it's heavy or tiring work, Lin Xiao has an orderly, so he lets the orderly do it.
Seeing the dishes he had made, Jiang Chunyu kept reaching for his chopsticks. Tao Hong smiled and said, "Xiaoyu has loved my cooking since she was little. When Xiaoyu gets married and has children, I will personally take care of her."
As soon as she said that, everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Chunyu.
Jiang Chunyu quickly swallowed the vegetables in his mouth and waved his hand, saying, "Why are you looking at me? I'm prepared to dedicate my life to the country. Even if I get married, it will be at least ten years from now."
Jiang Zhiyuan didn't speak, and Zhao Yanan had even less right to speak.
Jiang Yuze asked curiously, "Why ten years? Didn't Brother Xiang Dong get married in his early twenties?"
He wants to become an uncle soon.
Jiang Chunyu said earnestly, "I'll get married and have children later, and you can get married and have children earlier, so that our children are about the same age and can play together from a young age."
"Huh, you can do that too."
Jiang Yuze never expected it to be like this, but it seems pretty good this way too.
He and his sister didn't grow up together, so of course he hopes his child can grow up with his sister's child.
Then he should get married sooner so that their children can be around the same age.
"He talks nonsense every day."
Tao Hong placed two pieces of pork ribs in Jiang Chunyu's bowl. "If you meet the right person, you should still get married. If you're worried about who will take care of the child, just send the child back to me and I'll take care of him. I love taking care of children."
"Eat quickly."
Jiang Zhiyuan coughed lightly, "After we finish eating, Xiaoyu, go check if Xiaoyu has done her homework. She has class tomorrow."
Jiang Chunyu nodded, not refuting Tao Hong's words, and cheerfully gave a piece of rib to Jiang Yuze.
She really hadn't thought about getting married and having children.
At least she hasn't thought about it yet.
