In the first year, a son-in-law usually needs to give gifts such as mooncakes, fish, meat, a pair of ducks, and dozens of pounds of rice noodles. If there are children in the family, a large mooncake is also needed. You can also choose appropriate gifts according to the preferences of the father-in-law, mother-in-law, and other relatives, so that the gifts touch people's hearts.
Ning-style Mooncakes:
Ning-style mooncakes come from Ningbo, Zhejiang. The crust is harder, and most varieties are similar to Suzhou-style mooncakes. The representative varieties are kelp mooncakes and ham mooncakes. Kelp mooncakes are a type of mooncake with kelp as an ingredient. They use high-quality winter kelp, combined with sesame oil, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and almond fillings to create a salted and peppered flavor.
What to give as a gift on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month for a prospective son-in-law
1. Mooncakes
Mooncakes are an essential traditional gift during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Therefore, as a son-in-law, when you bring your wife back to visit and spend time with your parents, this traditional gift is definitely indispensable.
2. Massage machine
Another kind of health-related gift is a massage machine. Since you have married their daughter and cannot always be by their side, buying some simple and convenient instruments can replace your daughter's presence and show your parents-in-law the warmth and care of their children.
Recently, foot bath basins have become very popular. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches and it becomes autumn, the weather gradually cools down. Buying a smart and easy-to-use foot bath basin for the elderly will allow them to soak their feet when it gets cold, which is both healthy and comfortable.
4. Tea and alcohol
Many fathers like to have a little drink or tea. So, giving your parents some tea allows them to enjoy drinking tea and chatting in their spare time. Occasionally, they can have a small glass of alcohol to warm up on cool days, which is also a great common gift.
