Orion's pretty daughter-in-law

Chapter 186 Give Gifts

"These ones over here are for Jinyu. I helped pick them out according to the styles popular with the ladies of the aristocratic family over there. See if you like them."

Gifts for boys and girls are very different. Jinshu’s gifts are mainly things for him to read, while Jinyu’s gifts are all from his daughter’s house, beautiful dresses, various hair accessories, jewelry, and delicate and cute little ornaments. etc.

Jinyu exclaimed every time she saw something, and then she picked it up and played with it fondly, saying incessantly: "Oh, this hairpin is so beautiful, and this swing is so delicate! I like it so much! This The material of the skirt is so soft to the touch! The style is also very beautiful, thank you sister! I like these gifts very much."

Seeing Jinyu's excitement that she wished she could throw herself down and roll in the pile of presents, Luo Jinxiu knew how heartfelt her words were.

He stretched out his hand and pinched Jinyu's fleshy little face which had recovered from baby fat, and said, "Just if you like it, take everything back later and put it away carefully. Wear it whenever you want, if it wears out." It’s worn out, I’ll buy it for you again, don’t be reluctant.”

"I see!" Luo Jinyu promised, but secretly decided in her heart that these things must be cherished and not be ruined.

Now they can live a good life because of their sister, but they can't forget the poor life they lived in the past. They can enjoy good things, but they must not waste them!
After taking the gifts for them, Yun Jinghao also distributed the gifts that she had allocated in advance to the people left behind by Steward Ji. They didn't expect that they could get a lot of gifts, and Aunt Ji also sent several gifts. Hairpin hairpins, butler Ji also has a set of the Four Treasures of the Study that can be used to settle accounts, as well as several sets of new clothes for each person, and so on.

As hosts, Yun Jinghao and Luo Jinxiu treated them well.

There are also many other foods brought from the capital that can be stored for a period of time. They haven't taken them out yet. They can eat slowly later. The portions they bought are enough for them to eat for two or three months.

After the gift was delivered, Steward Ji offered to take the initiative with a very understanding look: "I'll take Bai Bi Wuxia and the others to look at the room first." Then he retreated.

The others bowed to Yun Jinghao and the others and followed, leaving space for the couple and Jinshu Jinyu, the big and small masters, to talk.

"During the Chinese New Year, Jing Hao and I were not able to spend time with you here, how are you doing?" Luo Jinxiu asked.

"Butler Ji bought a lot of food, melon and fruit snacks from the county town, and a lot of meat, and cut a lot of cloth for Aunt Ji to help us make some new clothes. We don't have to worry about food or clothing, and the house is warm. This is the most satisfying year we have ever lived." Luo Jinshu said this with satisfaction written on his face, it could be seen that he really felt that he had a particularly good time.

If I had to say I was a little regretful, it was what Luo Jinxiu said. As the closest family member, I was a little disappointed not being able to live with her.

Jinyu added: "During the Chinese New Year, the shopkeeper of Baiweiju and the shopkeeper Huang of Yanzhi Shop, even Lizheng and the others sent a lot of New Year gifts. There was a lot of food and drink in it, and many of them put We can't finish eating over there in the kitchen."

Luo Jinshu suddenly thought of something, a little embarrassed: "When they came to give us the New Year's gift, they stuffed us with red envelopes. They are all elderly people. We couldn't wait to accept it. Sister, brother-in-law, look... "

Yun Jinghao said: "It's okay, since they gave it, they will keep it." They also prepared a lot of gifts for people they knew well. He is not very good at interpersonal communication, but he also knows how to get along with others, so he can't avoid it. The word "come and go" means that only when there is coming and going, the relationship can be maintained for a long time.

"That's right, I'll keep it for you guys. I also prepared red envelopes for the children of those families, by the way!" Luo Jinxiu clapped her hands and took out two red envelopes that she had prepared a long time ago, "Although it is Chinese New Year We were not together when we were together, but this New Year's red envelope is still indispensable, come, this is what your brother-in-law and I prepared for you."

The two children did not refuse, and each took a red envelope. Jinyu was very curious, and immediately opened the red envelope. When she saw the number on the bank note inside, she was startled, and she stared at it again carefully. , After making sure that I read it correctly, I almost threw away the bank note.

"One, 1000 taels—!? This is too much!"

When Jin Shu heard this, he quickly opened the red envelope to read, and sure enough, what was inside was a bank note with a face value of 1000 taels!
Jin Shu couldn't help but catch two breaths, no matter how calm his personality was, he was still a half-grown child after all, so he couldn't help but let out a low cry.

He has never seen such a large denomination of banknotes in such a big age!
After being shocked, he tried to return the red envelope to Luo Jinxiu, "It's really too much, sister, it's just a New Year's red envelope, how could you give so much, it's not easy for you to make money—"

"You guys just keep it. Whether it's me or your brother-in-law, I don't know how many times more money they earn now than before. 1000 taels of silver is nothing."

"That won't work either." Luo Jinshu's attitude was particularly firm.

Luo Jinyu also seemed to react suddenly, and nodded vigorously: "Yes, there are too many, we can't accept it, sister, you should give a small red envelope."

Luo Jinxiu looked at them for a long time and did not see the two children showing any signs of compromise. She felt very helpless, so she could only change her mind and said: "Then I will keep it for you first, and when you get married in the future, I will give it to you together." You put it in the dowry."

Jin Shu opened his mouth to say something, but Luo Jinxiu said with a straight face: "If you still don't agree, then you don't think of me as your real sister! We are all relatives, how can we count them so clearly, me and you The money earned by brother-in-law, apart from leaving it to our children in the future, the rest is nothing but used to make you live a better life."

Yun Jinghao also said, "Just listen to Jinxiu."

The two children looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and agreed. They were even more moved by the care and love of their sister and brother-in-law, and made up their minds to repay them well in the future!
Afterwards, Luo Jinxiu gave them a small red envelope, so that they could usually use it to buy something they like.

It was small, but there was 100 taels of silver per person, but there was 1000 taels of silver at the bottom, and the two quickly accepted it, but it's hard to say whether they will be willing to spend it all, maybe they will give it to Luo Jinxiu next year. When they gave out the red envelopes, there was more than half of the money left.

It is not so easy to change the values ​​and habits of saving that have been formed, not to mention that saving itself is not a shortcoming. Luo Jinxiu has no intention of correcting it deliberately, but is only going to slowly and subtly change their consumption concept.

Under the premise of their conditions, there is no problem in buying some things they like appropriately.

In addition to Jin Shu Jinyu, Yun Jinghao and Yun Jinghao also gave them red envelopes for the few people left behind at home the next day. The New Year red envelopes plus the hard-earned money during the stay-at-home period, and the spring broadcast were all made by themselves, even if there was security. The people in the hall are probably very busy helping, so they should be rewarded.

Everyone has a red envelope of 50 taels, even if the family's monthly income has increased several times since they came to the compound, this red envelope can be worth their monthly income for a whole year.

The person who was so happy because the main house came back looked beaming everywhere, and he was smiling when he received the guests who came to the door in an endless stream the next day.

Those families who were close to the compound yesterday also planned to come over to say hello, but after hearing what other people said about Yun Jinghao, they also planned to visit again today.

All of a sudden, people from half of the village flocked to the compound. Dozens of people almost filled the big main room to the brim. Jinghuashuiyue and the others got a little familiar with the layout of the house yesterday, and quickly got used to it. Helped to take out the melon and fruit snacks and tea brought from the capital.

Yun Jinghao and Luo Jinxiu took out some small gadgets prepared for the villagers, and asked each of them to pick out any two to take back.

These things look exquisite, but they are actually not expensive. They bought hundreds of them and only spent less than 20 taels of silver. The quantity guarantees that everyone in the villagers can get a copy. When people leave, they can also take a piece of candy back to the sweet mouths of the people at home.

The villagers, who were originally aiming at the gifts from the capital, took a special look at Jinshu Jinyu’s gifts, such as the four treasures of the study that look very expensive, as well as white jade hairpins, headgear, etc., they have seen enough, things They also took it, and each left contentedly.

There are only a few people left, such as people from Li Zheng's family, Aunt Hong, Zhou Xi'er and so on.

For these close people, Luo Jinxiu gave them extra special gifts. The few people were not surprised by her intentions, but their hearts were still pounding when they saw those exquisite hairpins and bracelets beyond imagination. Except for Zhou Xier who happily brought the jade bracelet and earrings directly, Aunt Lizheng, Aunt Hong and the others carefully put away the things, thinking about leaving them as betrothal gifts/dowry for the grandchildren at home when they grow up.

In addition, there were toys for the children of their family. Zhou Xi'er's boy was not yet one year old, so Luo Jinxiu specially bought several sets of clothes with very soft fabrics.

At first Zhou Xier was embarrassed to take it. After all, it looked very expensive. Children from farmers like them could not use it.

But Luo Jinxiu said, "Our family doesn't have such a young child at all. If you don't want it, you can only put it in the bottom of the box." Zhou Xier gritted his teeth and accepted it.

There are no children in the compound, but the Yun family does have them. Unfortunately, she is not willing to give them to them!

After they put away all their things, Luo Jinxiu asked: "Just now I heard many people say that everyone in the village has built a kang?"
