early morning.
An Zhixian packed the tea and Zhuqing drove the carriage to Lin Mansion.
The concierge recognized An Zhixian and quickly sent someone to report Lin Yanqing. He opened the west gate and let the carriage drive into the yard.
An Zhixian lowered his head and straightened his clothes before getting out of the carriage with a well-placed smile.
Lin Song took the two of them to Lin Yanqing's study and exchanged a few words. An Zhixian took out the tea and brewed it himself. The two sat together to drink tea and chat.
Not long after, Lin Song, who was waiting outside the house, heard Lin Yanqing's laughter, and a smile appeared on Lin Song's face:
Boss An, like the eldest lady, always has a way to make the old man and the old lady happy.
Yan Yuxuan.
Hong Jiu saw that Yutong was wiping dust on a stool and could not reach the carvings on the corridor. He turned over and grabbed the rag in her hand. He stepped on the pillar to help, clamped his legs on the beam, hung the golden hook upside down and carefully wiped the carvings on the corridor. There was dust everywhere, and I was humming an unknown ditty in a good mood.
Yutong stared blankly, watching Lin Jinyan come out of the study after finishing her work, hurriedly climbed off the stool and ran forward and whispered:
"Miss, there is something wrong with Hong Jiu. She helped me wipe away the dust and sang a song. Look, she is still laughing! She can actually laugh..."
Lin Jinyan and Bai Zhi couldn't help laughing when they saw Yutong's horrified look.
Lin Jinyan: "She is a living person, so she will naturally smile. I have told you a long time ago that Hong Jiu is a good girl with a cold face and a warm heart."
While they were joking, Manao came in with a food box and saw Hong Jiu praising his awesomeness. Hearing that Lin Jinyan was preparing to go to Songmao Hall, Manao hurriedly said:
"Miss, there is no need to go. Miss Wanrong is accompanying the old lady to worship Buddha. The old lady knows that you will be worried about her, so she asked me to bring you a message. She wants to sleep for a while after praying to Buddha, so she asks you not to run away in vain. She also said It doesn't matter if the accounts in the shop are a few days late, so that you don't get tired. You made jujube cake, and the old lady also ate a big piece."
Lin Jinyan: "Then I'll wait for grandma to wake up before going. Now I'll go see grandpa first. Come to think of it, grandma must have slept poorly last night. Sister Agate, you don't have to stay here with me tonight. Go and stay with grandma."
Agate: "I just came back and ran into my father-in-law. He said that Boss An, who never sleeps, came to the house and was joking with the old man."
"Boss An is here..."
Lin Jinyan was stunned for a moment, her heart felt warm and numb as if she had been brushed by a feather.
Yutong: "Miss, Boss An has been a frequent visitor to the old man over the years. The servants in the mansion feel that the old man is as friendly to Boss An as he is to the young master, or even more friendly than the young master."
Lin Jinyan: "Boss An is a guest, and my brother is my grandfather's junior, so he will naturally be stricter."
Agate: "The old lady loves Boss An as much as the younger generation. A few years ago, I told my father-in-law that Boss An can drive directly into the mansion without waiting for notification."
Lin Jinyan chatted with Agate for a few words and gave some instructions about the affairs of the house. Then she turned around and went back to the study. She was reading a book to pass the time, but she couldn't read it. Instead, she took out a bunch of portraits that Du Xing had sent this morning and looked at them carefully one by one. .
After watching for a long time, she suddenly heard Lin Jinan's voice. Lin Jinyan raised her eyes and looked outside the house. She thought she heard wrongly when she didn't see anyone. The next moment, Bai Zhi came in to report. Before Bai Zhi finished speaking, Lin Jinan appeared at the door. Lin Jinyan took it. The book was changed to the portrait, and he stood up with a smile:
"Brother, didn't you accompany dad to the academy?"
Lin Jin'an: "I met the senior advisor in the academy. During our chat, I heard that the senior advisor wanted to see my grandfather, so my father asked me to accompany him back."
