C28 Buy a Gift
Because she had to return to the Leng Family, Ke Ruyan felt that she should prepare some gifts. After all, this was the first time after marriage that she had returned. Previously, the elders from Leng Family had all given her gifts and she hadn't even prepared any gifts to return, so she should make up for it this time.
However, no matter how much she thought about it, Ke Ruyan couldn't come up with a plan. Thus, she thought to ask Leng Mingxuan about Leng Family. He would definitely know what his family liked.
When Ke Ruyan told Leng Mingxuan her plan, Leng Mingxuan didn't really think it was her plan. He thought for a moment and said, "Actually, you don't need to prepare anything. They don't need anything."
Of course, Ke Ruyan wouldn't really not go and make preparations just because Leng Mingxuan said that. Bringing presents to the door was a proper etiquette, and was also her respect and respect for everyone in Leng Family. She didn't say so much to Leng Mingxuan, but asked about everyone's preferences in Leng Family, so she decided to prepare it herself.
Leng Mingxuan frowned slightly, thought for a while and said, "My mom is very interested in cosmetics and jewelry, but my dad does have a bit of research on tea. As for grandma, no matter what you give her, she will be very happy."
Ke Ruyan memorized it as she listened. Then, she thought of another person. "Did you leave someone behind? What about Ruo Han? What does your brother Ruo Han like? "
When she thought of Leng Ruohan, of course, Ke Ruyan could not help but think of the H she saw in Charm. She did not know if she could pretend as if nothing had happened when she met him again.
Ke Ruyan's mention of Leng Ruohan surprised Leng Mingxuan." You can still think of A Han, it seems you have a deep impression of him. He shot a glance at Ke Ruyan. Ke Ruyan didn't fully understand what was in that gaze. Was it a question, a question, or a question? But she didn't care.
"As for A'Han, I'm not too sure about what he likes." He's always been a loner and doesn't like to talk to people. Even when he's talking to me, he rarely talks to me. So you don't have to prepare anything for him. " As Leng Mingxuan spoke, he secretly nodded his head and felt that what he said made a lot of sense. The reason why he said that was because he was afraid that Ke Ruyan had prepared a gift for Leng Ruohan. A'Han, he might not accept this.
Ke Ruyan nodded and didn't say anything else. She naturally had her own plans.
… ….
After a simple lunch, Ke Ruyan decided to go out and buy presents.
She was going to buy a set of cosmetics for Leng Mingxuan's mother from the Lankou counter in the shopping mall. Although she didn't usually put on much makeup, she still had a little bit of understanding towards these things. Under the recommendation of the counter girl, she quickly picked it out.
Knowing that she was choosing a gift for her mother-in-law, the counter girl's eyes were filled with envy when she received her diamond card. She tried to curry favor with him and said, "Miss, you are really filial, buying such a good gift for your mother-in-law! But I suppose your mother-in-law treats you very well, too? "
Ke Ruyan only smiled and nodded. Naturally, she would not tell a stranger about her family's matters. She took the card, swiped it, and left.
She didn't notice that the counter girl was staring at her back. She was not only envious, but also jealous.
Then, she went to the Tianfu Tea House to buy tea for her father. Leng Mingxuan told her that his father really liked this tea. Of course, when she bought the tea leaves, Ke Ruyan was also shocked by the price. Taiwan oolong tea is also divided into many grades, she was recommended by the owner to choose the best one, of course the price is also the best one. However, she did not feel any heartache. For a person with a high position like Father Leng, she naturally should prepare a proper gift.
In this way, Mother Leng and Father Leng's gifts were prepared.
As for what she should prepare for Grandma Leng, she was at a loss. Grandma Leng was the best person in Leng Family for her, so she was even more serious in wanting to pick out a present for her granny, but she really didn't know what to prepare for the old man.
In the end, she had to call her mother for help.
After Mammy Ke finished listening to her daughter's distress, she smiled. She was very pleased that Ruyan had put her heart into preparing these gifts for the old man.
"Ru Yan, ah, for someone like Grandma Leng who has enjoyed high-end things before, it doesn't matter whether the gift is expensive or not. The most important thing is your heart, do you understand?" Mammy Ke taught her daughter with utmost care.
"Yes." Ke Ruyan nodded on the other end of the phone. She had also thought about it, but how could it be counted as good intentions?
"Mom, I understand, but I don't know what she likes! "Back then, she gave me such a precious jade bracelet. How could I not be too shabby with my gifts?" Ke Ruyan frowned, feeling conflicted.
Mammy Ke seemed to be busy with something and didn't answer immediately.
"Mom, did you hear what I said?" Ke Ruyan became a little anxious. It was already almost 4 o'clock. If she did not hurry, she was afraid that it would be too late.
"Oh, I heard you. I was preparing the ingredients just now." "Then let me ask you, what is your specialty?" Mammy Ke was finally done.
Ke Ruyan replied without even thinking, "Of course it's to cook!" After saying that, she suddenly felt at ease. "Mom, are you saying that you want me to personally make a table for Grandmother?"
Mammy Ke smiled. "My daughter is really smart."
"But, there are so many chefs in Leng Family, will they really take notice of my cooking?" Ke Ruyan wasn't sure. She had eaten at the Leng Family and knew that the cooks at their house were famous chefs who were hired from outside with high salaries. She really didn't know if they would take notice of her abilities.
"Ru Yan, of course what you did was different. You have to make it with your heart. You have to let them see what you're thinking. The food you make will naturally taste different. "Believe in mom, you can do it." Mammy Ke encouraged Ke Ruyan. Back then, she was the one who conquered Father Ke and Father Ke's family with good food. Her daughter, she believed, too.
Ke Ruyan nodded heavily. "Alright, I'll listen to mom!"
After hanging up the phone, she no longer hesitated. She still had a little bit of confidence in her culinary skills. She believed that Grandma Leng would be able to see her sincerity.
Leng Ruohan's gift was much more casual. Knowing that he loved music and liked singing, Ke Ruyan prepared an old record for Leng Mingxuan, which was said to be very precious.
