Chapter 1055: Chapter 1159: Mom, You Don’t Need to Always Think About Me
The three got off the bus and ran into Xia Dongxue, who was buying festive goods at the alley entrance: “Yiyi, Jingrui.”
Yunyi hurried a few steps forward: “Mom, why didn’t you ask someone to go with you while buying festive goods?”
Xia Dongxue was all smiles: “They’re all incredibly busy, and it just so happens that today’s supply is plentiful. I was thinking you will return to your family on the second, and your brother’s wedding banquet is on the ninth, so I prepared a bit more since I ran into it.”
Huo Jingrui and Ye Wenhao quickly stepped forward to take the items from their mother-in-law’s/mother’s hands.
With her hands free, Xia Dongxue happily linked arms with Yunyi: “I bought you a pair of leather boots, so you can try them on when we get back.”
Yunyi felt warmth in her heart: “Mom, you don’t have to keep thinking of me, I have enough to wear.”
Xia Dongxue just smiled without replying, but she was thinking: You didn’t grow up with us, and it’s been mom’s lifelong regret. Now mom just wants to make it up to you properly and compensate for what was owed for the past decade: “Mom knows you don’t lack anything, but these new arrivals seemed just right for you at first glance.”
Having already bought them, Yunyi didn’t want to disappoint her mom’s intentions: “Thank you, mom.”
“No need to thank mom, let’s go, and try the clothes on when we get back.”
On the way home, neighbors greeted them with smiles: “Hey, Dongxue, is this your daughter and son-in-law?”
“Mrs. Lu, yes, are you heading out?”
“I’m thinking of going out to buy some festive goods.”
Yunyi smiled and called Mrs. Lu’s daughter-in-law: “Hello, auntie.”
Mrs. Lu’s daughter-in-law smiled: “Hey, have your mom bring you over to sit at our place later.”
Yunyi agreed, and they parted ways.
Upon entering the house, Yunyi immediately noticed it had been reorganized: “Mom, where is the big brother’s wedding banquet being held?”
Xia Dongxue pulled Yunyi into the room: “We booked the state-run restaurant at the end of the street; your dad happens to know the person in charge there.”
Xia Dongxue searched through the bags brought in by her son and son-in-law, finding the leather boots she bought for Yunyi: “Come try them; the style caught my eye at first glance, these boots won’t freeze your feet even in heavy snow.”
Indeed, the leather boots are stylish, and after trying them on, they fit perfectly. There’s no doubt Xia Dongxue cares about her a lot: “Mom, these boots are nice; did you not buy a pair for yourself?”
Xia Dongxue smiled and waved: “Last year, your dad went on a business trip to Hai City and bought me a pair of boots. I haven’t worn them much, so buying more would be wasteful.”
Ye Wenhao chimed in: “Dad bought you plain boots, there’s rabbit fur inside these, they’re different.”
Upon hearing this, Yunyi made up her mind and soon gathered the information she wanted to know.
Putting away the leather boots: “Mom, these are the gifts Jingrui bought for you. Remember to keep them together later.”
Xia Dongxue spoke seemingly in reproach, but her smile betrayed her good mood: “You say just come visit as a family, why buy so much stuff? Don’t do this in the future, once you have children, there’ll be plenty of places to spend money.”
The couple laughed and replied in agreement: “Got it.”
Yunyi helped Xia Dongxue tidy up while discussing matters related to her brother’s wedding.
Once everything was sorted, Xia Dongxue took Yunyi to Ye Wenhui’s marital home: “How does it look, give mom some suggestions, see if anything’s amiss?”
Yunyi took a look around: “Has my sister-in-law checked out this room?”
