When Su Xun heard that Su Xun referred to Li Lin as 'that boy', he couldn't help but twitch his lips, and thought to himself, the dignified head of the Li family, the head of Li City, is not respected by everyone wherever he goes, but one day, he will be People call it that.
Hui Feng came to his senses, and then said: "Then I will not delay the Third Master's affairs. The Third Master will wait for my young master to come to your door."
Su Xun took two steps back and forth. After hearing this, he stopped and let him go down: "Okay, you can go back and get busy."
"My subordinates resign."
Hui Feng left in a hurry. Su Xun looked at what he was wearing and thought of Li Lin saying he would take a shower and change clothes, so he went back to the house and asked Li to find him a robe for going out to meet guests.
When the future father-in-law and the future son-in-law meet, naturally they can't be too disappointed, right?
About an hour later, Li Lin entered the gate of Jinning Duke's Mansion.
Li Lin wore a long-sleeved robe with dark bamboo embroidery and a copper crown on his head. He looked a bit like a nobleman.
When he got off the carriage, he was still holding a wooden box carved with camellias in his hand. His slender fingers pressed on the box, making the blooming camellias more delicate and delicate.
He turned around and ordered the attendants who were following him to unload the gifts from the carriage, and then came forward with a greeting card: "Li Jingyuan is here to pay homage to the third master of the house."
When the gatekeeper saw it was him, he was immediately delighted: "It's Young Master Li here."
Li Lin nodded gently: "It's me, please let me know."
The gatekeeper said: "The third master sent someone to tell me earlier that Mr. Li was here, so he asked someone to take him to Yuhua Garden. The third master is waiting for Mr. Li. Please invite Mr. Li."
"Thank you." Li Lin turned around and ordered people to deliver the gifts to Fupingyuan, and then went to Yuhuayuan with them.
Su Xun was making tea in the pavilion in the Yuhuayuan courtyard. From time to time, he cast his eyes towards the entrance of the courtyard. He was waiting for Li Lin's arrival. When he heard footsteps coming, he took a deep breath, straightened his back and chest, and The momentum rose.
"Master Li, please come this way. The third master will be waiting in the courtyard."
"Good work."
Li Lin said a few words to the boy who was leading the way at the door. The boy said goodbye and left, and then he entered Yuhua Garden alone. At this time, Yuhua Garden was already full of purples and reds, looking at the colorful scene.
Li Lin glanced over lightly and saw Su Xun sitting in the pavilion drinking tea. He turned around and walked over and entered the pavilion. When he saw Su Xun pretending not to see anyone, he bowed and saluted.
"Jingyuan has met the third master."
Su Xun glanced at him and saw that he was neatly dressed and not thin, but his eyes were a little tired. It was obvious that he had just rushed back after a long journey.
Thinking of this, Su Xun stopped trying to embarrass him, nodded and pointed to the seat opposite the stone table: "Sit down."
Li Lin thanked him: "Jing Yuan thanked Third Master."
"Okay, don't do this to me." Su Xun stopped and raised his hand to pour him tea.
Li Lin didn't dare to ask his father-in-law to pour him tea, so he quickly reached for the teapot, first poured a cup into the cup in front of him, and then filled Su Xun's half-empty cup to seventy percent full.
After refilling the tea, Li Lincai explained: "It is indeed my fault that the Third Master and Sixth Girl were worried. I had planned the time originally, but thinking about the hairpin I had prepared earlier, I remembered an old craftsman and turned around. Let him get a new one, it's too late now, I hope Third Master won't be surprised."
After saying that, he opened the box at hand and pushed it over.
Su Xun had written to Li Lin before, asking Li Lin what he thought about Su Wan and the hairpin, and also told the story about the Wang family giving Su Wan an jade phoenix hairpin. Li Lin replied and said that there was a The hairpin crown, so Su Xun handed the matter over to Li Lin, and he was responsible for finding a treasure hairpin.
Li Lin said: "Although the previous one was good, it was someone else's. When you talk about it in the future, you will still say who it belonged to back then. It's better to give her a new one that is completely her own.
The box was not too big. There was a red silk cloth at the bottom, and a gold crown was placed on top. Women's crowns are very different from men's crowns. Men's crowns are hair crowns, which are mostly used to crown their hair. But Copper can be gold or jade, but they are all just a small crown.
A woman's crown is a hairpin crown, and there are many styles that can be made on it. When Mrs. Gaoming wears her imperial uniform, she wears a hairpin crown.
The hairpin crown that Li Lin had people make for Su Wan looked like a small tree with branches wrapped around it. The branches and the place where the hair was fixed were made of gold, and the beautiful leaves were made of white jade. There was something hidden in the white jade. Several fruits made of precious stones.
If people walk around, the gold wire connecting the branches will sway gently, and the white leaves and fruits will also sway gently, looking graceful, strange and beautiful.
"This tree is called the Emperor's Mulberry. Jingyuan once heard that the Emperor's Mulberry is one of the sacred trees in ancient mythology. It has the same lifespan as the heaven and earth, which has a very good meaning."
Su Xun was a little dizzy, but he heard that this was a tree that lived as long as heaven and earth, so it naturally represented longevity. On his birthday, it was indeed good to give him a gift that symbolized longevity.
Su Xun asked: "What is the name of this hairpin?"
Li Lindao: "I didn't give it much of a name. The old craftsman who cast it previously called it the Emperor's Lady's Mulberry."
Su Xun's eyes swept over the leaves with clear lines and frowned: "I'm afraid this name is inappropriate. If not, how about another name?"
The emperor's daughter is at least the daughter of an emperor, that is, a princess.
Although Su Wan has made a princess, such a name is obviously not suitable to be used. If it arouses the displeasure of the royal family, or the emperor feels that the Duke of Jinning is disobedient and wants to ascend the throne as an emperor, That would be a disaster.
"There is indeed something wrong." He thought for a moment, and then said, "There are gold and jade on this hairpin crown. The gold is the branches, the jade is the leaves, and there are fruits on it. The fruits are the continuation of the lives of future generations. If not, let’s call it a golden match.”
"If the couple is happy and the children and grandchildren continue, isn't it a good match?"
A good match...
The corner of Su Xun's mouth twitched. Although he really wanted to say that my girl is jade, you may not be gold. At most, at most, you are just a lump of iron. But he also looked forward to the future of Su Wan and Li Lin as a happy couple and having children and grandchildren. continue.
The implication is also good.
"Then let's have a good match."
Li Lin smiled: "Thank you, Third Master, for your help."
"Okay, I'm annoyed when I see you. I'll keep the hairpin. You, you can go and come back tomorrow." After the matter was done, Su Xun drove them away unhappily.
Li Lin paused for a moment and wanted to ask him if he could see Su Wan, but he saw that Su Xun was a little impatient: "If you want to stay, that's fine. You can take the hairpin away later, and I'll prepare it for Ah Wan." Nothing else.”
It's not that Su Xun doesn't want to look good to Li Lin, why not let him meet Su Wan as he wishes.
This time Li Lin was able to come back. Su Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt the need to teach him a lesson, so that he would not come and leave as he did now, without caring about Su Wan's situation and mood.
Let him know what he did wrong so that he will not take Su Wan's affairs to heart in the future.
Li Lin was naturally aware of Su Xun's unhappiness. After thinking about it, he couldn't force it and could only nod his head: "Then the third master gave the hairpin to the sixth girl on Jingyuan's behalf. Jingyuan then left first. ”
Fortunately, it's just a day's matter. If I can't see you today, I'll just see you tomorrow.
Anyway, Su Wan knew that he was back, so he should feel relieved.
"Okay, let's go quickly. It will be dark soon. Go back and have a good rest. Come back tomorrow and keep your spirits up so that others won't gossip tomorrow."
"Jingyuan noted it down."
Su Xun called a boy to take him out of the house, and Li Lin said goodbye and left. When he stood at the door of the courtyard, he stopped and waited for a few moments, as if he was expecting something.
But the only thing that reached his ears was the sound of the wind.
Seeing him stop, the boy asked him strangely: "Master Li, have you forgotten something?"
He replied: "No."
The boy said again: "Master Li, please come."
"Yes." After saying that, he followed the boy who led him out of Yuhuayuan, and went out of the inner house to the second door, where Ju Song and others were waiting.
Yuan You had been running with him for so long, so he let him rest, and Ju Song came with him to the Jinning Palace. Previously, he went to see Su Xun, and Ju Song went to Fuping Courtyard to deliver gifts for him. .
"Master."
Li Lin nodded: "Go back."
The servant sent Li Lin and his party to the gate of the house, watched him get on the carriage, and said to Mr. Li, "Slow down."
After the carriage swayed away, he turned back to his house to report back to Su Xun.
