Lin Ershuan and his wife's shop in town had become the talk of the village. People were not surprised by the valuable set of bowls that Lin Ershuan whipped out, just envious. The men who used to work with him had all gathered around Lin Ershuan, seeking advice on opening their own shops.
Lan Hua's family gift was two rolls of fine cotton cloth, with fresh patterns and a blue background scattered with flowers, obviously prepared for the unborn child.
Loudmouth didn't come empty-handed either; she prepared a peach wood comb and a delicate small tabletop mirror for each of the three Lin Yuan Sisters.
What delighted Lin Yuan the most, however, were the gifts Lin Fugui had brought from town for them.
The moment Lin Fugui entered with his ox cart, he called out to her, "Yuanyuan, come and see, your grandparents sent someone to bring gifts for you."
