Chapter 62: The Matter of Returning the Gift
"Mom, I'm ......"
Yun Tao looked at the angry Wang Mei and didn't know what to say, because no matter how he said it, he was wrong, if he said to Zeng Quan and Jing Ting, don't buy so many expensive things, no matter how you say it, it seems that you are not filial, and you have to buy supplements for your future in-laws with your daughter-in-law, and you also want your daughter-in-law to pick up a bargain to buy, this is going to be poked in the backbone, your parents raised you so big, you are so unfilial, forget if you are not filial, and don't let your daughter-in-law enter filial piety, and your conscience is wolf.
Besides, although my mother is very angry that Yuntao has spent so much money to buy so many supplements and thinks it is very bad to step on money, but Yuntao, who knows his parents very well since he was a child, knows that his parents are actually very happy in their hearts, after all, which parents don't want their children and daughters-in-law to be filial.
"Auntie, uncle, don't blame Yuntao, we want to buy it, the first time we came to see you, we really didn't know what to buy, so we picked out some supplements and bought them, which are a little more expensive, but as long as it works well, it's fine."
Zeng Quan said, after all, the first time I came to visit the man's house, I could buy some bargains, and then said to the man's people that "the courtesy is light and affectionate", if this is the case, then it will show that he and Jing Ting are stupid, and there is no sincerity. Therefore, Yuntao's mother's words, he must not take them seriously, he has to listen to them in reverse, and he has to buy expensive gifts for Yuntao's parents next time.
"Tingting, Zeng Quan, this really makes you too expensive, and there are a lot of things in here that Yuntao and his father don't need, or we will keep some of them, and you can just retreat for the rest."
Wang Mei said, these gifts are so valuable, if you can return some of them, you can return some of them, after all, Yun Tao and this Jing Ting's family relationship will not be successful, this gift is heavy, and it will be troublesome to pay it back when the time comes.
"Auntie, these things can't be returned after you buy them, you can just accept them, this is a piece of my heart and Zeng Quan's heart."
Jing Ting said, after all, how can there be a gift to give away, and take it back, besides, this is a gift for her future in-laws, if you take it back, then you still have it, do you still want to marry Yuntao.
"In this way, it really makes you break the bank, and you can't buy such expensive things in the future."
Wang Mei couldn't retreat when she heard this, so she could only say helplessly, how can she say that other girls buy such expensive supplements for their families, you can see that the sincerity of these two girls is very strong, and if you say anything about whether you can retreat or not, it will show that you are not very authentic, and it will be very chilling.
"Tingting, Zeng Quan, you sent us such an expensive thing, I don't know how to return the gift."
Yun Zhen said with some embarrassment, in the countryside, pay attention to the etiquette, others give you gifts, after a while you have to return a gift, generally how big a gift others give you, when you go back, the gift can not be too different, do not let people look down on it, people in the countryside are very particular about "people live in one breath and a tree lives a skin", very face-saving, Yun Zhen silently calculated in her heart, how to say that the gifts that Jing Ting and Zeng Quan gave to themselves and the two children are at least 3,000 yuan, this gift is too heavy, My family really can't return such a big gift for a while.
"Sister, auntie, aunt, these things are a piece of Tingting's heart and me, there is no need to return any gifts, as long as you can accept our gifts, we will be very happy."
Zeng Quan said that Zeng Quan grew up in the countryside and knew that the custom of returning gifts was popular in the countryside, and he didn't think about it so much when he bought gifts at that time, only picked good and expensive ones to buy, and now he remembered that he really ignored this custom in the countryside, so it was really embarrassing for Yuntao's family.
How can I say that these gifts add up to tens of thousands of yuan, in the countryside, everyone is not so big, it will make Yuntao's family and relatives embarrassed, after all, people in the countryside do not have so much spare money, every money is carefully calculated, and it is really difficult to return to others with eight hundred or thousands of gifts at once.
"Yes, sister, auntie, aunt, you really don't have to give us any gifts back, as long as you recognize us, it makes me happier than any gift you give us back."
Jing Ting also said that although she didn't know much about returning gifts, Jing Ting knew one thing very well, she came today to ask Yuntao's family to recognize herself, and to recognize her future daughter-in-law, which is more important than any gift.
"How can this be done, we will definitely return this gift."
Yun Zhen said that her future brother and daughter-in-law gave her a meeting gift for the first time, and she was the eldest sister, no matter what, she had to raise money to give her this meeting gift, and there was no such thing as letting the woman give a gift to the man's family first, and the man gave the woman's family a gift first.
"Sister, aunt, aunt, you really don't have to give them any gifts back, these gifts are their hearts, if you want to return the gifts, just return some of our rural specialties, and they are not short of other things."
Yun Tao said, after all, his sister's family economic situation is not very good, and there are two children, the whole family relies on his brother-in-law as a cook, 3,000 yuan a month to live, if she wants to return this gift is really embarrassing for her, in addition to the gifts for her parents, she bought the most gifts for her sister's family, Yun Tao remembers that it seems to add up to five yuan.
"Brother, how can this work, our souvenirs here are worthless, besides, it is so good to send these things to two beauties, it makes people laugh." Yun Tao said.
"The local products are good, the elders in my family like these, the local products in the countryside are green and pollution-free green food, these things are in the city, and money may not be able to buy good things."
Jing Ting said, in fact, Jing Ting is telling the truth, what high-end supplements, cosmetics, high-end tobacco and alcohol, Jing Ting's family is really not lacking at all, there is no place to put these things sent by others during the New Year's holidays, and many of them are entrusted to others to take out the Lu to sell.
However, these green and pollution-free local products may not be able to be bought if you have money in the city, although the dishes in many places in the city are marked with green and pollution-free food, and those who know the inside story know that this is all to deceive the general public comrades.
Many government departments or some wealthy people hire people to grow vegetables, raise pigs, and provide food for their own departments or their families, which has often been reported in the news in previous years, but these reports have been harmonized in recent years, and it is rarely seen.
"Tingting, don't be joking, how can your family like those local products."
Yun Zhen said in disbelief, these souvenirs are sold in the town's vegetable market for only a few cents a catty, and the more expensive ones are only a few dollars a catty, and the people in Tingting's family are all officials, how can they like these things that are not rubbish.
"Sister, I didn't lie to you, my family really likes to eat these native products, these native products are green and pollution-free, eat at ease, now it is really difficult to eat some clean and healthy food in the city, our family often goes to the countryside to purchase these native products, but there are no acquaintances, and ordinary people do not usually take out good things to sell."
Jing Ting saw that Yun Zhen didn't believe her words, and replied anxiously, after all, if Yun Tao's family thought that she was not telling the truth, her impression of herself would become very bad.
"Is that really the case?"
Yun Zhen looked at Yun Tao and asked, the little aunt and aunt also looked at Yun Tao, after all, if you just go back to some local products in the countryside, it will be much easier, it is not easy to say anything else, this is planted in your own land, raised at home, and there are many local products that you usually dry and pickle, so it is green and pollution-free.
"It's true, people in the city now pay attention to health, especially the officials and rich people pay more attention, now everyone knows that the vegetables and meat in the city are all hormone-boosted foods, and they are very unhealthy and harmful to the body, so the people in the city especially like those agricultural products in the countryside that have not used hormones and a lot of fertilizers."
Yuntao explained to the group of people in his family that although Yuntao rarely interacts with people in the city and rarely has contact with the outside, he is highly educated after all, and often likes to read news and other reports on the Internet in Internet cafes, and all of them know more about this aspect than his family members who have not studied in elementary school for a few years.
In recent years, the country's food safety problems are really not optimistic, what genetically modified food, what gutter oil, what sick and dead pork, and so on too many food safety problems plague people living in the city, after all, they can't have their own land like rural people, they can grow some vegetables, can raise some poultry for their families to eat.
They have to go to the vegetable market in the city every day to buy vegetables that bring this or that safety hazard, go back to cook for their families, pay high medical expenses to go to the hospital when they are sick, and live a life where they don't know what to do if they are poisoned to death.
Even if they don't eat, buy some instant noodles to eat at home, now they can't, now the news has reported that instant noodles, milk drinks, potato chips, ice cream, biscuits and other foods contain the most additives, a pack of instant noodles can have up to 25 kinds of food additives, more than "toxic" level, which makes many people in the city do not know what food is not poisonous in the market and supermarket.
It can be seen how precious the home-grown and home-raised local products in the countryside are in the eyes of the city people, and there are poisonous foods on all sides, and this pure green and pollution-free food is so popular with the city people.
