Chapter 211 Shen Yiqiu
Going to Shen Yiqiu’s house, Chen Guizhi was even more enthusiastic than Yang PeiMin, getting up early in the morning to pack the gifts for her.
Their third daughter lived in the county, where even buying vegetables was a hassle, not as convenient as it was in the countryside, so she harvested nearly half of the vegetables from their own garden and also prepared twenty eggs and other foodstuffs.
Shen Yiyue was astonished by the large sack on the ground, "Mom, what are you doing?"
Chen Guizhi laughed, "What’s wrong? Your sister loves tomatoes the most, and just today our garden had some ripe for picking, I’m not even sure if they have any to eat today, if I had more time I’d also make some buns for my grandchildren. Dahua and the others love the pork buns I make..." Clearly, she didn’t understand the disdain in her words.
Shen Yiyue and Yang PeiMin exchanged a helpless look.
Yang PeiMin understood her mother’s tender heart, Zhang Minghua was the same, but to have herself and Shen Yiyue, who were not strong, carry so much was too much; she then said, "Mom, there’s no rush. I’ll be back here on my days off from cram school, and I can bring them then. It’s hard for Yiyue and me to carry so much, and besides, I was planning to bring some pastries, which would also look nicer."
Chen Guizhi nodded in agreement, "Right, you think of everything. Her mother-in-law and younger sister-in-law live with her, it’s proper to give a full courtesy. Here, let me give you some money."
Yang PeiMin quickly stopped her, "Mom, no need, I have money. Now I’m the one asking for my sister’s help, it’s right for me to pay. Please don’t block my filial piety."
Chen Guizhi smiled, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."
Shen Yiyue discreetly gave Yang PeiMin a thumbs up.
Shen Yixiang turned her face, pretending to have seen nothing.
