"Right, we're back, and by all accounts, we should go express our thanks."
Mei Xiang thought for a moment, "Then what should I bring?"
"You don't need to bring anything; just come with me," Chen Cheng said simply as he took a couple of bites, "Giving too much isn't good either."
"What's the reasoning behind that?" Mei Xiang didn't understand.
Chen Cheng put down his chopsticks and explained, "Sister-in-law helped us a lot, and this friendship is very precious. Giving a gift is just a way to express our feelings, not to repay the favor. Giving something too expensive might actually create a distance and put Sister-in-law in a difficult position."
Xiao Meier also nodded along, "Xiao Cheng is right, just showing the sentiment is enough, after all, a light gift may carry heavy affection."
Mei Xiang picked up the conversation, "Is it like when you asked me to bring rice?"
