“Old Master was not willing to leave and stayed for another day. He went to buy some stuff for you and asked me to deliver over. He will head back when he leaves today.”
Mo Beihan respected his grandfather as long as he did not purposely investigate the Gu family.
“What stuffs are there?”
Steward Zhong smiled and said, “Some furniture. He knew that you just came here and rented a house. He brought you some presents and… some daily necessities. Besides yours, there are some for the two children and your mother. And also… for the young lady from the Gu family.”
Mo Beihan did not expect that his grandfather would still buy him stuff after giving him 20,000 yuan.
He sighed secretly.
The hardship that his family went through was all caused by his father, Mo Huai. There was no direct relationship with his grandparents. However, his grandfather always felt guilty that he did not educate his son properly. He was more guilty than Mo Huai.
His grandfather was always kind to him in his previous life.
“Bring them in. Help me to thank… the Old Master!”
Mo Beihan did not reveal the Old Master’s identity as Gu Jinlin was present.
Steward Zhong asked servants to bring everything in.
Most of them were furniture. The Old Master was here before and was clear with the condition of the house. He bought all the remaining furniture for Mo Beihan and all of those were of top quality.
There were two big wardrobes, a refrigerator, a TV, a washing machine, a desk and several chairs.
Gu Jinlin was surprised when all the big furniture were moved in.
Then there were many necessities. Food was brought in first.
There were 200 catties of rice, 200 catties of flour, 100 catties of cornmeal, 100 catties of red beans, green beans, soybeans, 300 hundred catties of fresh sweet potatoes, and 20 catties of dried sweet potatoes.
There were also 50 catties of pork, 20 catties of mutton, 10 catties of beef, 6 chickens, 2 geese, 200 eggs, 100 duck eggs.
Gu Jinlin opened his eyes wide as he stared at the pile of food.
What came in behind was a large bag of fine cotton. It was difficult to tell the quantity but seemed to be a few kilograms.
There were also 20 catties of wool, 10 catties of cotton, and then there were denim, corduroy, fleece cloth. Altogether, it was about 20 catties that filled a big bag.
Steward Zhong took out a small box with four watches inside.
All of them were imported watches. Two of them were men’s design and the other two were female designs.
“Old Master bought these on his own. The female designs are for the young lady from the Gu family,” Steward Zhong smiled and explained as he tried to beautify the Old Master, hoping that Mo Beihan could have a better impression of him.
“There are some snacks and toys.” Steward Zhong placed two boxes on the table.
“The toys are for the children. Those cloth and wool are for the children and your mother. There are some brighter colored cloth that can be used by the young lady from the Gu family.
“Old Master tried to get all the assistance he could within a limited time to obtain all the stuff. He will deliver more when it’s the new year. If you have any needs, remember to write to him or telegram him. Telegram is faster!”
