A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 168: New Year Gifts from Each Family
Each family will receive two boxes of Xia Lian's Beijing Eight Pieces and two boxes of tea. Those with children will also receive White Rabbit and chocolate.
When she was selecting products before, the merchant sent her several boxes of various nuts. She found some common nuts such as sunflower seeds and almonds and packed some from each store.
The rest will be taken back to Xujiatun to eat during the New Year.
There were also several boxes of biscuits, which were also removed from their packaging and wrapped in kraft paper for each family.
Makes a nice little gift.
Finally, the most practical thing is that the various pheasant eggs, turtledove eggs, and flying dragon eggs in the space are almost overflowing. Each family sends dozens of them. Those raised in the space are better than those in the wild.
These gifts are enough for these families. As for Xu Lei, we gave him more because we took his family’s conditions into consideration.
These families have no shortage of money or food.
Zhang Zheng has now officially taken the top spot and is very busy every day. When he saw Gu Qinghuan coming, he took the time to chat with her.
"Thank you for remembering me, niece. When you go back, please give my regards to the old man for me and tell him to hold on. Better days are not far away." Zhang Zheng reminded implicitly.
Gu Qinghuan pretended to be confused and didn't understand what he meant, but she actually knew it clearly.
"Uncle Zhang, I understand. Please take care of yourself."
The two chatted briefly, and Gu Qinghuan tactfully said goodbye.
Before leaving, Zhang Zheng knew that she was going to bring Lan Ting, Zhong Luoning and others back to Xujiatun, so he flattered her and offered to help them get the letters of introduction.
Lanting, Zhong Luoning and her daughter, and Ming Ruxue all needed letters of introduction on their way to Xujiatun, otherwise they would easily be arrested as spies, and there was no internet at that time.
Zhang Zheng was the director of a revolutionary committee, so all he had to do was say a word and the street office sent over letters of introduction to several people, with plenty of time given so they could come back after the New Year.
In fact, Gu Qinghuan could also forge this thing himself.
Just carve a few fake stamps from the vending machine and poke them on a piece of white paper.
Wang Xiaowei's previous letter of introduction expired, so she came to ask for help. This is how Gu Qinghuan secretly helped her think of a solution, without anyone noticing.
The seal was engraved exactly the same as the one on her original letter of introduction.
But since Zhang Zheng is so helpful, it will be more convenient for her.
Zhang Zheng originally wanted to help them buy the train tickets, but when he found out that she had already done it, he didn't bring it up.
As for Xiao Fengying and Ou Sumei, she not only gave small gifts and pheasant eggs, but also gave each family a jar of kimchi.
This thing can't be taken away, and it won't taste good if kept for too long. Although it can be put in the space, it would be difficult to explain if several people at home ask about it, so I can only give up and give it away as a favor.
It just so happened that Xiao Fengying and Ou Sumei both liked the pickles and kimchi she made, and took them home like treasures.
At the same time, both families gave her gifts in return. Xiao Fengying gave her several pieces of woolen material for making coats, which came in black, white and brown. They were all very versatile colors and did not look cheap. They must have been imported from abroad.
I also bought a lot of imported snacks and candies for the children.
Ou Sumei was even more generous and directly installed a telephone and a color TV for their home, which cost a lot of money.
The main focus is to be considerate and give whatever you need.
Ou Sumei was so generous because she actually wanted to repay Gu Qinghuan's favor.
The fact that Fang Zhengping's condition could be controlled in a timely manner was closely related to Gu Qinghuan's special treatment method.
So, she doesn't feel bad about spending any amount of money.
Gu Qinghuan tried to decline, but failed to get out of it, so she accepted it obediently.
The Fang family probably wouldn't feel comfortable because they owed her a favor. It would be better to let someone else repay the favor so that they can continue to get along well.
It's time to start studying and start studying.
As for Qu Hanwen, she sent the gift over and he asked her to deliver it to the Xiao family as well.
Logically speaking, since Xu Huaian was not around, she should have also helped out his old boss Tang Zhenye, but the key was that she couldn't find him.
After asking Fang Zhihai, I found out that they just came here temporarily for a meeting and were going back to their own base.
She originally wanted to send him something to express her gratitude, after all, he gave Xu Huaian a chance to stand up again.
But Fang Zhihai said that was not necessary, and if there was any difficulty, she would not ask any more questions.
Fang Zhihai seemed to know some details about Xu Huaian's matter, and told her not to worry, that no news was the best news, and asked her to go home without worry.
It can only be the.
After dealing with these things, she went to the post office to send some New Year supplies to her uncle and aunt who lived far away in the northwest.
Rice and flour, White Rabbit chocolate, biscuits, various nuts, red dates, fish maw, air-dried squid, air-dried small yellow croaker, hot sauce, beef jerky, preserved fruits, etc.
There are also warm underwear, cotton-padded clothes and pants, socks, cotton shoes, scarves, gloves, facial creams, etc.
The main thing is to install whatever you can think of.
They were short of supplies and some things could not be bought even with money, so Gu Qinghuan sent more, even though the postage was expensive.
It's an expedited package, so they should be able to receive it before the New Year.
It's basically settled, except for Grandma Gu's side and two friends, Wang Xiaowei and He Qiang.
Gu's grandmother became a nun and practiced Buddhism in a temple outside Beijing. Gu Qinghuan asked Lanting to send a bunch of things over there.
She gave away 20 kilograms of rice, 20 kilograms of flour, the vegetables in the refrigerator, and some pickled vegetables at home. She didn't know whether people could eat meat in the temple, so she didn't dare let them take any. She just gave away some candies, biscuits, some nuts, red dates, and so on.
Gu Qinghuan also asked Lanting to deliver Gu Lanting's old bedding to the old lady. She remembered that the last time she went to her house, she saw that her bedding was old and thin, and probably not very warm.
As for herself, she first went to Wang Xiaowei's employer's home nearby with gifts.
Gu Qinghuan had some kind of fate with Wang Xiaowei. Thinking that it was not easy for her to raise two children, she gave her a lot of good things. Anyway, there were plenty of them in her space villa.
Two cans of unpacked milk powder, various nuts, biscuits, etc., two boxes of Beijing Eight Pieces, a can of lard from home, and two fish caught from the fish pond, a crucian carp and a sea bass.
When she arrived at her employer's house, it was Wang Xiaowei who opened the door.
"Sister Huanhuan, why are you here?" She was quite surprised to see Gu Qinghuan.
Gu Qinghuan noticed that she seemed to have lost some weight, much thinner than when they first met, but he was afraid of getting her into trouble, so he didn't ask any more questions.
"You need to eat more. It's not easy to feed two children by yourself."
Wang Xiaowei smiled and said, "Breastfeeding consumes energy quickly, and everyone will lose weight. I want to lose some weight to look better."
Gu Qinghuan still remembers that when Wang Xiaowei first called him "an" on the train when they first arrived in Beijing, her accent has now completely faded away.
Life forces everyone to grow up, and some hardships are not bad things.
But she does look much better now that the baby fat has faded from her face.
"As long as you are happy, I came here to say goodbye to you. I will be returning to my hometown in Northeast China soon. These things are for you."
The two were talking at the gate of the courtyard when a middle-aged woman holding a baby stood at the door and looked over: "Xiao Wei, who is that?"
"Madam, it's a friend of mine who came to see me." Wang Xiaowei said in a low voice.
Gu Qinghuan didn't want to cause trouble for her, so he stuffed the gift into her hand and said, "Go in quickly! I'll be back first."
Wang Xiaowei smiled at her embarrassedly.
Gu Qinghuan patted her shoulder: "It's fine, you can tell me if you have anything."
It's not a good feeling to work for someone else, especially this kind of job where you have to live under someone else's roof and be restricted in every way.
Gu Qinghuan understood very well how difficult it was for her. It was really hard for a woman with a child to make a name for herself in this world.
After Gu Qinghuan left, Wang Xiaowei, with red eyes, prepared to go back to the house with her things in her arms.
The middle-aged woman stared at the thing in her hand and said, "What are you holding? Let me check it out. Don't let your baby swallow anything bad. Otherwise, your milk will give our little baby diarrhea."
Wang Xiaowei was extremely reluctant. Wasn't this treating her like a thief?
But she didn't dare to resist, because in her situation, it was not easy to find a job to support herself and her children, and she could save a lot of money with free food and accommodation.
At least now she doesn't have the courage to resist.
The most likely result of resistance is that you will have to take your children back to your hometown, and the situation you will face will not be better than it is now.
She was surrounded by gossip from her fellow villagers, and her parents and relatives lost all face. She had to work in the fields endlessly but still could not earn any money.
In short, after weighing the pros and cons, she could only endure it.
In fact, this family treated her well. At least they didn't restrict her food and drink for the sake of the children. But at times like this, you could see their inherent sense of superiority.
Gu Qinghuan is also very rich, but she never puts herself above others or controls them.
After all, there are differences between people.
Wang Xiaowei put the bag on the table and took things out one by one. She felt humiliated at first, but as she took more, tears began to flow.
This time it was because I was moved.
During this trip to Beijing, Gu Qinghuan, whom she met by chance, was like the person sent by God to save her.
He saved her time and time again and prepared so many gifts for her. She owed Gu Qinghuan so much.
The middle-aged woman was stunned when she saw the things she took out, not because the things were very valuable.
But it’s strange that someone like Wang Xiaowei could be so nice to someone like her.
Although these things are not luxurious, they are not cheap either. Just these two large cans of milk powder must be worth thirty yuan, right?
And these nuts and biscuits are rare good things and are in short supply in department stores.
The two fish moved slightly, which was quite fresh.
Just adding all these things together is probably equivalent to Wang Xiaowei's two months salary.
Who would give her such an expensive gift?
Thinking of this, she asked.
"Xiao Wei, who gave you the gift?"
Wang Xiaowei wiped away her tears: "Madam, can I take my things in?"
Even a clay man has some temper. Wang Xiaowei was very upset about what happened today.
The middle-aged woman curled her lips in disdain: "As if no one cares about your things! Let me tell you, everything is too much, don't eat too much, it will ruin the quality of your milk."
Wang Xiaowei originally wanted to take out the two fish as a snack for her family in the evening, but when she heard her words, she took her hand back.
This fish can be kept for a long time if pickled, so they won’t get it at a bargain.
They dislike it anyway, don’t they?
The two parted unhappily.
One did it to earn money to support himself, the other did it to provide milk for his grandson, so they both endured it.

Gu Qinghuan was going to He Qiang's house, and Zhong Luoning also wanted to go with her.
She took out her only remaining savings, fifty-five yuan, and prepared to give it to the He family as a token of her gratitude.
The last time He Qiang came, she was still sick, so this time he should come and thank her in person no matter what.
The two of them each took a tricycle, carrying 20 kilograms of rice, 10 kilograms of flour, 2 kilograms of fruit candy, 1 kilogram of White Rabbit, 2 kilograms of biscuits, a jar of homemade spicy cabbage, and two mandarin fish.
These are pretty much all the New Year gifts we have.
He had been given food once before when he was having hot pot meal.
