Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Chapter 533 - Sending A Present By Air



In this era, canned food made superior presents. In many households, these were just for display and no one could bear to eat them. If Eldest Brother brought these cans to please the girl, her entire family would be delighted.

Since her family used to be scholars but had fallen on hard times, they would have the insight to understand that although Eldest Brother’s family was not doing well, they had plenty of connections.

These things were not so easily obtained.

Gu Qingyao had experienced the luxuries of her past life. Later on, the Gu family had risen to power and became fairly wealthy. As a pampered young girl who was doted on, she was always very generous and was never stingy with anyone.

Especially these things. To Gu Qingyao, these were nothing. Although these things were now very valuable, she did not mind.

The family naturally placed great importance on a girl that Eldest Brother liked.

She wanted to retrieve Eldest Brother’s lost confidence, and help him to understand that as a grandson of the Gu family, he was still somebody although he might have temporarily fallen on hard times!

Mo Beihan laughed and said, “I’m on very good terms with that friend and there is plenty of space on the plane. You can send as much as you like. Eggs, canned food, or beef. But the beef must be properly wrapped and the canned goods must be concealed. I have already told him all this.

“As for the eggs, it doesn’t matter if they can be seen.”

Gu Qingyao was delighted!

“That’s great. Then I’ll prepare a little more to thank him. Times are hard for everyone. Since we’re troubling him to carry things for us, we should show our gratitude.”

Mo Beihan smiled and kept quiet. He inwardly thought, Girl, if I ask someone to do something, he won’t dare to ask for any thanks.

But he did not dampen Gu Qingyao’s enthusiasm.

Take it as… the benefits of helping his sister-in-law.

When she found out that he was a young, unmarried man with elderly folks in his family, Gu Qingyao prepared twenty eggs, five kilograms of noodles, a bag of brown sugar, a bottle of Maotai and a bag of dried fruits!

Some were commonly found, but others were rarer.

In these times, ordinary people were not allowed on planes, so Gu Qingyao gave more delicacies.

As for the things to be brought on the plane, Gu Qingyao prepared fifty eggs, two bottles of Maotai, ten packets of Daqianmen cigarettes and two cans of canned food.

She preserved them herself and sealed them in small cans. They had no logos from later years but were just simple ceramic jars. If she didn’t tell them, no one could tell what they contained.

Then she added a bottle of lard and a bottle of soybean oil.

These things were certainly rare in Eldest Brother’s family.

When everything was ready, Mo Beihan went to mail them and gave the things to the man who was to take them on the plane.

When he got back, they rested, then went out again at midnight.

Jiang Yiru and Lin Wanyin had business in the provincial capital, so they had hidden more things here. It took Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan four days to dig everything out.

They planned to visit Ji Mingyue, but they spent all their time and attention on obtaining these things and finally, they postponed their visit until they could get everything out.

When it was done, Gu Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did she prepare Ji Mingyue’s things.

Gu Qingyao cocked her head and said, “What do you think I should give to Mingyue?”

Mo Beihan’s eyelid twitched. “I… how should I know?”

Gu Qingyao said, “Why shouldn’t you know? Aren’t you good friends with the Ji family? I’m going to the Ji house to visit Mingyue, of course I need to bring the Ji family an appropriate present!”

Mo Beihan: “…”
