There were too many people around now, so it was not an appropriate time for Qiao Mei to pass her gifts to Liu Yun. She pulled Liu Yun aside and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I have brought back some peaches and apples. I'll bring some to you later."
"No, no! I didn't help much. These fruits are so expensive. Give them to Xia Fan and Xia Xing!" Liu Yun said.
"Sister-in-law, don't stand on ceremony with me. These are fruits which I planted myself, not bought from the store! Just eat them without any worries. Besides, the ones I grow are more nutritious than the ones sold outside! I'll show you later!" Qiao Mei said.
Liu Yun only agreed to accept the gifts after hearing that Qiao Mei had planted them herself. Fruits were very expensive now. She would only buy them during the new year and festive seasons!
