Chapter 388: Chapter 388: The Gifts Yun Xiaoxiao Bought for Her Parents-in-law

This made Fang Chaoyang reveal a brilliant smile.

After mixing a cup of malted milk, several of the grandchildren tried it.

"Delicious," Fang Meiyun had only tasted malted milk last year for the first time, and even brown sugar had been a rare treat.

But sister-in-law had sent them so much brown sugar, they could enjoy it for a long time.

Zhao Family Mansion.

Da Shu’s mother brightened up upon hearing that her mother-in-law had received another package from Laosan and hurried over alone.

"Mom..."

Mrs. Zhao glanced at Da Shu’s mother, well aware of what she might be scheming by coming here.

"What brings you here?"

Da Shu’s mother didn’t care; she just wanted to know what good things Laosan and his wife had mailed to the mother-in-law.

She was still drooling over the thought of the mooncakes from the last time.

They were truly delicious.

"I came to see how you were doing."

To see her?

"Laosan’s wife sent a vest and a hat for both me and your father," said Mrs. Zhao.

A vest and a hat?

Was there nothing to eat?

"As for food, you’d better wait for Laosan and his wife to come back before asking!"

Seeking food, and she had come to her for it.

Da Shu’s mother looked at her mother-in-law, noting that she hadn’t gone to cook or entered the house but was busy making shoes.

"Well, Mom, I’ll head back then."

Mrs. Zhao was really at a loss for words.

Thinking that Laosan and his wife would have to study in the Capital City for several more years, might they not regularly mail packages—was she expecting handouts by coming here?

That was Laosan and his wife being filial, thinking of the two old folks.

"Why is the gate closed?" Captain Zhao was still looking into getting the village electrified; he was somewhat surprised to find the gate closed upon his return.

"Laosan’s wife sent us things again, and when Laoer’s wife heard about it, she came over to the house," explained Mrs. Zhao.

Upon hearing this, Captain Zhao’s brow furrowed slightly.

It was clear to him that Laoer’s wife must have thought that Laosan and his wife were sending them food again.

"It must have been Laosan’s wife who selected them. There were socks, hats, vests, some seaweed, even some shrimp—and they were not small," Mrs. Zhao detailed.

Vests?

So many things?

While Captain Zhao was moved by the thought of new clothes, his interest piqued when he saw a black vest, a red vest, a black waistcoat with several pockets.

"I’ll try it on and see."

Mrs. Zhao, having been married to Captain Zhao for so many years, knew exactly what he was thinking.

"You’re going to try it on?"

He promptly put it on, and despite it being a bit large—it would be perfect with a cotton-padded jacket underneath the waistcoat.

"Try the hat on as well," she suggested.

As soon as Captain Zhao donned the hat, he instantly felt its warmth.

"Wearing this hat in winter will keep the cold at bay immediately."

Did she have another one?

Getting on in years, after being exposed to drafts for a long time, her head often felt chilled; now, with this hat, she wouldn’t feel the cold.

Mrs. Zhao didn’t realize that her sensitivity to the cold was because she hadn’t taken proper care after giving birth—it was hard for older people to withstand wind on their heads.

"Laosan’s wife has really put in effort."

Mrs. Zhao also knew that these items must have been chosen by Laosan’s wife. Her own Laosan might buy food, but clothes like these would not be something he would get.

"When is the electricity going to be installed? We should aim to have it done before the new year so that when Laosan’s family of four comes back, they can also use electricity. And what about the land contract matter—is there any news?" she inquired further.

Mrs. Zhao had her eyes set on these matters.

It was all to benefit the communal members.

Once electrified, it would also be convenient for Laosan’s family. After staying in the Capital City for half a year and then returning to the village with no electricity, would they cope?
