"Go tell Feifei to bring this up herself. After all, it's something that needs to be given, and if she mentions it first, Zhizhi will remember her kindness," Ye Jianguo said, concerned that his daughter might miss out on something.
Hao Chunying thought for a moment and agreed. "It's best if she brings it up first; at least it will make her husband feel more comfortable."
"Alright, I'll go talk to Feifei," she decided.
Old Bai had left me some nice fabric, and I thought the colors were lovely. It would be perfect for making clothes or skirts for Little Moon. I planned to take it to Feifei.
Yesterday, Zijun brought back some ribbonfish when he picked up Tingting, so I decided to give them a couple of fish as well. I also made two pairs of shoes for Zhizhi and would take those over too. Hao Chunying was calculating what else she could bring for her daughter.
You can't deny that Tang Zhi treats Ye Jianguo and Hao Chunying well. It's all about reciprocity; while Tang Zhi is good to the elderly couple, they are also kind to him and Feifei.
Hao Chunying, as a mother-in-law, always thinks of them whenever she has something good. Knowing that her daughter makes shoes and that Tang Zhi likes wearing handmade cloth shoes, she usually makes him two pairs.
Whenever she has time, she also makes shoes for the two kids in the family. Most of the fabric at home comes from her as well. The shelves and other necessities around the house are all welded by Ye Jianguo.
The care that Hao Chunying and her husband show towards Tang Zhi's little family far exceeds what Tang Laotai's family provides.
Tang Zhi isn't heartless; he knows who treats him well and who doesn't. It's clear to him. This is just a matter of mutual kindness—there's no blood relation involved, so who would be nice to someone for no reason?
Tang Zhi had already delivered the items to Auntie Gu.
"Auntie, this is some beef and lamb I brought back from Inner Mongolia. I thought you might like to try some," he said as he knocked on Auntie Gu's door with a bag in hand.
"Oh dear, you should keep it for yourselves! Why are you bringing us more?" Auntie Gu replied with a hint of reproach upon seeing him again with gifts.
"Come on, aren't you my aunt? Feifei often says that you've treated her the best since she was little. You always think of her whenever there's something good to eat."
In our home, we have something good, and Feifei is always worried that Auntie Da might not get to enjoy it.
Just yesterday, I returned home, and today I hurried to bring it to you all. There's also a set of lamb offal, but I left it at my mom's place since they live in a bungalow, which is easier to manage. My mom said she would cook it and bring it over for you.
Tang Zhi is quite the smooth talker; his words made Auntie Hao beam with joy.
"You hit the nail on the head! I don’t have a daughter, so I truly treat Feifei like my own," said Hao Chunying happily.
Although both of them knew that Tang Zhi always brought good things to Auntie Hao because of the close relationship between Ye Fangfei and her, there was also the fact that Uncle Fang was Tang Zhi's superior, who looked out for him in the transportation team.
Initially, Uncle Fang's care for Tang Zhi was certainly due to Ye Fangfei's influence, but later on, it was also because Tang Zhi knew how to handle relationships well.
This illustrates that in human interactions—whether among relatives or friends—there must be mutual give-and-take for relationships to last. If everyone were like Tang Zhi's parents and siblings, even the closest relatives could end up at odds eventually.
