Song Yi turned a deaf ear to Xu Desheng's words and stared straight at Lin Jinyan.
Lin Jinyan looked at each other calmly, and after a moment Song Yi blinked and his eyes softened.
"Thank you this time."
Lin Jinyan agreed with a smile and told Song Yi to take good care of himself. Before leaving Jimin Hall, he told Xu Desheng: Don't argue with Song Yi to heal his injury. Don't be reluctant to use medicine if your life is at stake.
Xu Desheng sent Lin Jinyan out while praising him. Looking at the carriage going further away, Qiu Shan smiled and said, "We are all blessed because my boss has such a bodhisattva-like heart."
Xu Desheng: "Who says it's not the case? Even though that man doesn't know how to be good, since the young lady has given you orders, you should take good care of him and let him recover from his injuries."
Qiu Shan readily agreed, saying that he would take good care of her.
New Year's Eve arrived in a blink of an eye. Since only Bai Yiran and Gu Yichen were celebrating the New Year in the General's Mansion, Lin Jinyan and Lin Jin'an got up early to greet several elders. The two brothers and sisters took Gu Momo and Bai Zhi to the General's Mansion.
Accompanied by the two brothers and sisters, the morning meal was quite lively. When Lin Jinyan was cuddling close to Bai Yiran and talking, a servant came to report that Boss An from the tea house was here.
Gu Yichen hurriedly ordered the people to come in. An Zhixian looked gentle and dignified as usual, and Zhu Qing followed him with several boxes.
After greeting each other and taking their seats, An Zhixian's graceful and steady voice sounded.
"The New Year's gifts sent from my hometown are all local delicacies in Zhangzhou, which are not commonly seen in Tai'an City. Although they are not valuable, they are more novel than anything else. I specially sent them to Madam and Yichen to try."
Bai Yiran and Gu Yichen smiled and thanked them. After saying some common things, Bai Yiran asked Lin Jinyan to take them back to eat at one o'clock.
An Zhixian smiled gently: "Ma'am, just keep it for yourself. I just sent the Lin Mansion's share."
Gu Yichen smiled and said: "Mom, Brother An and Taifu are almost friends now. How can we miss the Lin family?"
Lin Jinyan was surprised when she heard this: "Boss An and my grandfather?"
Gu Yichen: "Recently, Taifu often goes to Midnight Hou for tea in his free time. I've met him twice. Don't Yan'er know?"
Lin Jinyan shook her head: "I haven't seen my grandfather much these days in the bank account house, but I didn't know that my grandfather and Boss An were so close."
An Zhixian smiled and said, "I met Taifu when we were giving porridge before, and we had a lot of fun chatting with each other, so we kept going back and forth more often. Taifu was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he benefited a lot from every conversation. An respected him in his heart. I really dare not call Taifu a close friend."
Lin Jinyan chatted with a few people calmly, but secretly thought about An Zhixian's intentions.
During the chat, An Zhixian mentioned that an old friend came to his hometown in Zhangzhou and asked Hong Jiu to have time to visit Wuyehou.
Lin Jinyan said with a smile: "Today's New Year's Eve is a day of reunion. Since we have old friends and it's time to get together, Hong Jiu will go with Boss An soon."
After chatting until almost noon, Lin Jinyan and his sister got up to go home, and An Zhixian also got up to say goodbye.
Gu Yichen sent several people to the door, and after everyone got on the carriage, Lin Jinyan lifted a corner of the curtain and saw Hong Jiu and the driver sitting together in An Zhixian's carriage but not getting into the carriage.
In the private room of Hou Yehou, An Zhixian washed his hands and took a seat at the main seat. Zhu Qing, An Nanfeng and Hong Jiufen sat on both sides.
An Zhixian: "Hongjiu, Lin Jinyan rescued a man in Yizhuang a few days ago. Was he ordered by anyone?"
Hongjiu shook his head: "We did save an injured man. Lin Jinyan happened to save him when he passed by by chance. No one instigated him."
