Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Chapter 521: I’ve Been Dreadfully Worried About Eldest Cousin’s Courtship

But from the contents of Eldest Uncle’s letter, she could tell that his family was doing quite well over there.

It was just that conditions there were too tough.
They had received all the things that their family sent them from their hometown.
Based on what they said, there was no issue with that.

Gu Qingyao understood.
This time, she sent more.
It should not be a problem.

Of course, grain was a necessity.

This time she prepared ten kilograms of rice, five kilograms of flour, ten kilograms of cornflour, and then another twenty kilograms of coarse grain.

That included sorghum flour, sweet potato flour, dried sweet potatoes and so on.

Then there were dried herbs.
She included less of these.

Then she added meat – a side of bacon, cured pork ribs, two dried chickens, two dried rabbits, a few dried fish and a packet of small fish and shrimp that had been dried.

Little fish and prawns were meat too!

That way, these looked like things that they would save on a normal basis.

Eldest Cousin needed to go courting.
Besides these practical items, she had to send some rarer items to keep up appearances.
She had promised Eldest Cousin that when he met a girl that he liked, she would send many delicious items for him to please his wife-to-be.

Especially since she had a younger brother.
Gu Qingyao thought for a while and sent a bag of brown sugar, two tins of malted milk extract, a bag of milk candy, a bag of hard candy, and a bag of mixed dried fruits.

Then there was a set of clothes for Eldest Cousin and two pairs of shoes.
She had been making clothes for Eldest Cousin and she had sent him a set earlier.
Later on, she had not sent anymore for fear of attracting attention, so she had only sent some cloth.

She also sent Eldest Aunt a set of clothes and Eldest Uncle a pair of shoes.

Then Gu Qingyao stuffed some cloth in, especially adding some cloth suitable for making clothes for a young girl.
These were meant for Eldest Cousin to please his wife.

It was a huge bag, weighing a hundred kilograms.
In order to make the parcel look smaller, Gu Qingyao squashed the items that could be flattened and bound them tightly several times with rope.

By the time Gu Qingyao had finished tying it, she was panting and exhausted.

“Little Six and Little Nine, hurry up and write a letter to your parents.
We’ll send it together tomorrow.”

The two children could read and write.
They had not seen their parents for a year and naturally missed them terribly.
When they heard that, they hurried off to write their letter.

Gu Yunshen laughed when he saw the huge parcel his daughter had prepared.

Gu Qingyao squatted next to the parcel and looked up smilingly at her father.

“Father, I’ve been terribly worried about whether Elder Cousin will manage to court his wife!”

Gu Yunshen was amused and he patted Gu Qingyao’s head.

The next day, the parcel and a letter for Eldest Uncle, as well as Little Six and Little Nine’s letters were all mailed out.

Besides that, there were letters to Third Uncle and Second Uncle’s families to tell them the good news.

At the end of the month, Mo Beihan came back for Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao glared at him.
“Who asked you to come back?”

Mo Beihan was aggrieved.
“Why haven’t you left yet? I’ve been waiting for so many months.
Didn’t you say you would definitely come before the autumn harvest? If you don’t come now, the autumn harvest will be upon us.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Summer had only just begun.

Mo Beihan tugged at her hand and said pitifully, “Come on! Come with me, all right? The weather is getting hotter and hotter.
It’s so uncomfortable in the countryside.
Come with me to the city! There’s no one to restrict you there, so it’s more convenient living there, right?”

Gu Qingyao was speechless.
This fellow was growing increasingly different from his previous self.
He was getting more and more shameless.

Mo Beihan came back and finally managed to get Jiang Xun, Jiang Ping, Jiang Jing and Mu Mu’s accounts transferred to the Mo family.
