Chapter 532: Canned Food, Ah Canned Food! (1/2)

Gu Qingyao was deeply displeased with the offering in the department store.

She pouted and said to Mo Beihan crossly, “There’s nothing nice in this era. If… we were in another time, I could give the girl so many nice things! But now? There’s nothing available.”

Mo Beihan laughed. “These are already pretty good. You’re too choosy, so you can’t spot anything you like. Your sister-in-law is different. She hasn’t encountered your… things.”

Gu Qingyao had seen the luxuries of later times. Of course, she did not like any of these things. But Eldest Brother and his wife were different. They had not encountered the luxuries of later years. So to them, the current selection was already very good.

Gu Qingyao had many nice things in her interspace. But she still wanted to select some things unique to this era.

She chose a few pieces of cloth, including fine cotton and denim. Besides colors suitable for making clothes for a girl, she deliberately chose a few pieces suitable for making clothes for older folks.

Jewelry was not permitted in this era. They could only wear watches. Gu Qingyao thought about it and bought a hundred dollar watch to send over. When Eldest Brother formally married the girl, she would buy him an imported watch.

The conditions over there were harsh and a watch costing about a hundred dollars was not too flashy. It would not attract too much attention for everyday wear.

She bought a big bag of things, and Mo Beihan laughed as they went back. “Are you mailing another enormous parcel?”

Gu Qingyao raised her brows and said, “Of course. She’s my sister-in-law! She and my Eldest Brother are so loving. Hehehe, my eldest brother must be over the moon. Sigh… although he experienced a lot of hardship during his trip to the northeast, he managed to meet my sister-in-law. Seems like a good deal.”

Mo Beihan glanced at her. When they reached home, he said, “I’ve mentioned it to my grandfather. Grandfather has been trying to find a way to get Eldest Uncle’s family home. I think it won’t be long now.”

Gu Qingyao’s eyes brightened. “Really?”

She was well aware of how capable Old Master Mo was.
