Chapter 252: My Mom Won't Let Me Play with Fools

Translator: 549690339

Although Shen Mingzhu didn't like to go out, she didn't neglect social interactions because of it.

She made candy boxes and gift boxes for Pei Yang and his son to take to relatives and friends' homes for New Year visits, and to share the good news of her pregnancy.

When relatives and friends learned of her pregnancy, they all brought gifts to congratulate her.

During the first few days of the New Year, it was quite normal for relatives to visit each other, so the activity at the Pei family's didn't draw much attention from the neighborhood, as everyone was busy with their own New Year visits.

On the fourth day of the New Year, Zhao Yun and his son also visited the Pei family.

Zhao Yun, though not very scholarly, was known for his loyalty. When he learned that the food factory was having difficulties, he pestered Zhao Dafa at home until he managed to drag him along to purchase two hundred pounds of apple taffy.
