Chapter 437: Chapter 331: No One Knows How to Cherish Blessings (Part 2)

He was silent for a while, then said, "For those who give generous gifts, return with two boxes of high-end pastries, a roast duck, and some small trinkets. As for Second Brother, I’ll privately give him some cigarettes and liquor because those special supplies will be useful to him. Don’t send the fabric and other things you planned to give Sister-in-law and the others this time. Wait until later to privately give them to Big Sister."

"Haha... I guess Big Sister will give similar gifts to the three of our families this time. That’s quite difficult for her. Instead of waiting, we’ll deliver them ourselves tonight. She won’t mention it to anyone else," Zhou Jiao said with a smile.

She was really worried that Zhang Meili’s way of gift-giving might upset her brother-in-law. She better send them over quickly to make amends. She suspected that Zhang the Second might return generous gifts. However, since the oldest one doesn’t manage internal affairs, and given that Huang Cuilan is used to being frugal, the situation would be different.

Zhang Guoqing nodded. His oldest sister’s living conditions are not as good as Second Sister’s, but she is always generous to her brothers. Both her husband’s family and her own family require New Year gifts, so it’s likely to be a tight year.

Seeing that everything was fine, Zhou Jiao pulled Zhang Guoqing into the next room. Many pastries, snacks, and toys were mixed up together, and Aunt Fen hadn’t sorted them. She didn’t say anything, just pointed at the list of New Year gifts and smiled at him, asking him to help organize the gifts.

Zhang Guoqing pulled out a bamboo basket from the corner, which still had half a basket of potatoes inside. He didn’t know who sent them, and Aunt Fen never mentioned it, and of course, it wasn’t recorded on the list. He couldn’t help but sigh. He began to suspect that if some people sent inexpensive things, this aunt wouldn’t mention them? Those were all social obligations.

"Jiao Jiao, could you ask Aunt Fen to come over for a moment?"

As soon as Zhou Jiao saw him, she knew he was angry. To Zhang Guoqing, it’s not that light gifts could be ignored. He particularly valued sincerity. It would also be a good opportunity to remind Aunt Fen that this family isn’t hers.

Leaving the room, Zhou Jiao called out to Aunt Fen in the kitchen.

The other party responded early on, but it took over half an hour for Aunt Fen to show up.

Zhou Jiao smiled helplessly and said, "Aunt Fen, could you check to see who sent the potatoes in the room? Xiao Wu is waiting for you over there."

"Potatoes? I honestly forgot about them. Wait, let me think," Aunt Fen said, walking and frowning in thought.

Once she entered the room, she saw Zhang Guoqing checking the list. The items initially piled in one place now had a small pile behind him. It was clear that some items on the list hadn’t been matched yet.

Aunt Fen stopped, looking around. Seeing Zhang Guoqing look up, she said with a smile, "Xiao Wu, the person who sent over the potatoes is named Wang. He also sent two wild chickens and a piece of venison. He said you would know who he is. Haha, Xiao Wu, I made the two wild chickens and the venison. Is that alright?"
