What gift is appropriate to bring back to my parents’ home on the second day of the 2019 Chinese New Year?

In ancient traditional Chinese society, a daughter's return to her parents' home was a very grand event, which was called "Guining". The current folk saying is that on the second day of the Lunar New Year, married daughters must return to their parents' home and their husbands must go with them, so it is commonly known as the Day to Welcoming the Son-in-Law. When you go home, you have to bring a gift, which is called a gift of companionship . So what is the best gift to bring back to your parents' home on this day?

1. Ordinary and popular gifts: wine, cigarettes, snacks

1. Whether you drink depends on whether your parents drink. If you don’t like drinking, just buy some mid-range liquor. If you like drinking and tasting wine and can tell the quality of wine, you should prepare a box of high-end wine. If you like drinking and are not picky about wine, look for mid-range to higher-end wine and prepare one box or two boxes of mid-range wine.
2. Two packs of cigarettes . The price depends on your financial situation, usually more than 20 yuan per pack. However, nowadays it is popular to "give gifts for health", so cigarettes are not recommended as a gift.
3. Two bags of snacks and desserts . Buy some snacks or desserts that your children may like. Prepare more delicious food for your children.

2. Thoughtful and homely gifts: clothes, milk, drinks

1. When buying clothes for the Chinese New Year, it is best to buy down jackets or overcoats. One reason is that they are just the right size to wear, and the other is that they are not cheap, so they look decent when asked. The size of the clothes must be suitable, and the colors and styles must not be too old-fashioned, so that your parents will look younger when they wear them.
2. Milk or drinks: two boxes of milk, boxed milk will do. If you don’t want to buy milk, you can replace it with drinks. Be sure to choose the ones your parents like to drink.

3. Practical gifts: supermarket shopping cards or cash, oil, rice, meat, fish

1. Supermarket shopping cards or cash red envelope shopping cards are best from large supermarkets near your parents' home. After your parents get the shopping cards, they can also choose goods according to their own needs, which is more practical. If you don’t know what your elders like, it’s better to just give them a red envelope. The elders will feel happy and festive when they receive it. And there is nothing more joyful than using the money to buy what you want directly.
2. Two barrels of oil for daily cooking at home.
3. A bag of 50 kilograms of rice is enough for the family to eat for a period of time.
4. For two fish , pick a yellow croaker or a good variety of fish, a bigger one, to symbolize "abundance every year".

4. Electronic technology gifts: smartphones, cameras, e-books, soymilk machines, bread machines, wall breakers

1. Smartphone: As our parents get older and their eyesight deteriorates, they cannot see clearly the font size of ordinary mobile phones, making it very inconvenient to use the phone. A smart phone specially designed for the elderly is the best choice for them.
2. Cameras and e-books. Some elderly people have hobbies, such as photography. They buy a camera, hang it around their necks, and go out to take pictures every day. They must feel very happy. Some people who like reading can buy an e-reader and put the books they like on it, and they will be very happy.
3. Soymilk maker, bread maker, and blender. After retirement, parents have more free time at home and will start to pay attention to health preservation. However, there are still many houseworks to do, so buying some useful small appliances will definitely satisfy the elders. But be careful not to buy electrical appliances that are too complicated, as they will be useless if the elderly cannot learn how to operate them.

5. Health care gifts: tea, supplements, health care equipment, health care products

1. Tea: Drinking black tea in winter can enhance people's ability to resist cold and prevent influenza; green tea can lower blood lipids and prevent arteriosclerosis, and is suitable for people who like greasy food; people with dry mouth can drink some oolong tea, which has the effect of moisturizing the throat. When sending tea, you can mix several types together, which is more beneficial to your health.
2. Supplements: The health of the elderly is very important to the whole family, so buy some good supplements and bring them home, your parents will also like them.
3. Health-preserving equipment : Middle-aged and elderly people are prone to lumbar spondylosis, periarthritis of the shoulder, etc. You can consider giving them health-preserving equipment, which is also a heartwarming gift. I believe your parents will be able to feel your kindness.
4. Health care products : If your parents have calcium deficiency, poor absorption or other physical problems, you can give them some health care products.
