When Li Lin came to Qiulan Residence, Su Xun had just ordered Dr. Tea to make some tea and stayed outside the door. Li Lin knocked on the door and came in, and then bowed to Su Xun.
"Third Master."
"Sixth girl."
Su Wan stood up and bowed slightly in return: "Mr. Li."
Su Xun said: "Okay, there are no outsiders here. Don't wait for any more outsiders. Please sit down."
Li Lin thanked him, sat down magnanimously, and then placed the wooden box on the side of the tea seat. Su Xun waved Dr. Tea down and poured him a cup of tea himself.
Li Lin thanked him: "Thank you, Third Master."
Su Wan glanced at him and showed a gentle smile. Li Lin's eyes fell on her for a moment and then looked away, and then asked: "How are Third Master and Sixth Miss doing lately?"
"Okay, it's nothing serious." Su Xun stretched, and then said, "You said you wanted to make a pair of jade pendants and asked me to choose the materials. Where are you now?"
Li Lin opened the box and took out three pieces of jade, one each black, green and white. He said: "These are what I have collected in the past few days. These three are the best."
The black one is a piece of black jade, the green one is a piece of jade with excellent water quality, and the white one is a piece of warm jade.
Su Xun reached out and touched it. It felt very good, especially the piece of white warm jade, which was extremely rare. Su Wan was a little afraid of the cold. If she had a piece of warm jade with her, it would be good for her body.
Su Xun handed the warm jade to Su Wan: "A Wan, what do you think of this?"
Su Wan reached out and touched it. It felt very good. She nodded: "Okay."
She was a little surprised, and she didn't know what method Li Lin used to find three such good jade stones in such a short period of time.
However, Su Wan was actually very happy with his intentions. It would be fine if someone else had a ready-made token for their engagement, but if not, that would be fine. He wanted to wear a new pair of jade pendants as a token, which shows that he attaches great importance to this marriage. Her satisfaction.
Li Lin's eyes fell on her face. Her face was not big, her skin was fair and fair, especially her eyes, which were sparkling, showing that she liked her. He was secretly relieved in his heart.
"Sixth Miss has a style she wants. If so, let me tell you."
Su Wan shook his head: "No, I can do it."
"Then I have a few copies here. Why don't you, Miss Six, take a look at them." After saying that, he took out a few drawings from under the box and handed them over. Su Xun took them, and then started looking at them with Su Wan.
There are several styles. The ones in the front are all in the style of ordinary jade pendants. They can’t be said to be bad or outstanding. Probably all ordinary jade pendants look like this. But the ones in the back have patterns like flowers and small animals, especially those with flowers. There is also a little squirrel holding a big tail, which is so soft and cute.
Su Wan's heart melted when she saw it: "This is so cute."
When Li Lin heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, thinking that she was cuter than a little squirrel. Miss Six was a cute and smart girl.
He rubbed his slender fingers on the edge of the teacup and said, "Then use this. After all, it's what you and I use. It's best if Miss Six likes it."
Su Wan nodded: "I like this, thank you Mr. Li."
He opened his thin lips lightly, and his eyes fell on the strand of hair on the top of her hair: "You're welcome, this is what I should do."
Su Xun coughed slightly and successfully attracted the attention of the two people. Both pairs of eyes looked at him. Su Xun felt a little bad for a moment. He sighed in his heart and said: "That's it. Can you Have you found a suitable craftsman? If you need my help, just ask."
Li Lin said: "There is no need to be a craftsman. I have been fortunate enough to learn it for a few years. I can carve a jade pendant. When I finish it, I will send it to my house."
Su Xun was a little surprised: "Have you ever learned this?"
Li Lin's expression remained unchanged: "I learned from my father. My father and I have traveled to many places. Sometimes we don't have any money, so we always have to learn some skills. After all, we need to eat."
Su Xun immediately thought of how difficult his life had been over the years, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "It will always be fine in the future. Your parents are no longer here. If anything happens, just come and see him." That’s me.”
After all, he is his son-in-law. If things go badly, he will naturally not stand idly by.
Li Lin nodded: "Thank you, Third Master."
"No need to be more polite." Su Xun was quite happy. Li Lin, although he was a little poorer, was really concerned about the marriage. He was upright, polite, and gentle. Such a person was a perfect match for Su Wan. It fits.
Now that the matter was done and neither party had any intention of leaving, Li Lin asked someone to bring some snacks to Su Wan, and then the father-in-law and son-in-law sat in the teahouse drinking tea and chatting, with Su Wan sitting at a small table by the window. While listening to the storyteller downstairs, I ate snacks.
Su Xun asked Li Lin about his future plans. Li Lin said that he had no intention of pursuing an official career and would return to his hometown after getting married.
Li Lin was afraid that Su Xun would think that he was poor like others outside, so he felt that he still had to explain himself, so he said: "Actually, my family still has some land, has done some business, and has some money. Third Master doesn't have to Worrying aside, it’s enough to support my family.”
"As for the marriage, Third Master doesn't have to worry. I will definitely not embarrass Third Master and Sixth Girl."
Hearing this, Su Wan suddenly remembered the letter she had written before. She turned around and met Li Lin's smiling eyes. Her heart skipped a beat and her face turned red instantly.
She suspected that he was harboring feelings for her!
snort!
Su Xun was unaware and was even very happy to hear his words: "That's good. As long as you live well in the future, I'll be relieved."
What Su Xun was most afraid of was that his daughter would suffer hardship. This time Li Lin said that his life was not bad, and he felt relieved.
The two talked for a while, and Su Xun asked someone to bring the chessboard over to play chess with Li Lin. Su Xun was good at chess, but not as good as Li Lin. He ended up failing in both games. Just as he was about to start the third game. At that time, someone knocked on the door and reported that Marquis Jinning had something to do and asked him to go back.
Su Xun thought for a while, then made an appointment with Li Lin to continue next time, and then took Su Wan and others to leave. Li Lin saw the father and daughter out, then sat back on the edge of the tea seat and took a sip of tea. , Yuanyou walked in from the door and closed the door on the way.
"Young Master." Yuanyou lowered his voice and whispered, "Jiubian sent someone here just now, saying that something happened at the Jinning Marquis Mansion."
Li Lin paused for a moment, raised his eyes and asked him: "What's the matter?!"
"King Sui wanted to marry the third girl from the Marquis of Jinning House as his concubine, but the three girls started a quarrel after they returned."
If the third girl really becomes King Sui's concubine, the Marquis of Jinning may be in trouble.
Li Lin frowned. He felt that the other people in Jinning House had nothing to do with him, but it concerned Su Wan. He was afraid that something would happen and she would be sad in the future.
"Let me make an appointment. I need to go and see His Majesty Dong Zhao."
