Chapter 65
"You weren't even born yet."
Mrs. Lin talked to her son about how Taifu Lin taught Qi Lingheng.
Because of the pain, she frowned after saying a few words and seemed a little sleepy.
Lin Yunyi stood up, bent down and said in her ear: "Mom, you rest first, I'm going out."
Mrs. Lin closed her eyes and responded to him. After Lin Yunyi went out, she lay down and didn't hear anything happening outside the window.
"My lord, I've been waiting for a long time."
Lin Yunyi went out to see Qi Lingheng. He was not old, but he was considerate in his words and actions. He asked his servants to come over and change the tea. He chatted with Qi Lingheng. Most of them were words of thanks: "It's really troublesome for you to pick up Dr. Li in person. You can send him back next time." If someone sends a message, I should pick it up personally."
Qi Lingheng said: "Yun Yi, don't be so polite to me."
He smiled slightly: "Just let me do something for Master."
Lin Yunyi did not refuse anymore and said to him: "Your Majesty, my mother mentioned you just now. She said that her father liked you very much when he was alive."
Thinking of his deceased master, Qi Lingheng's eyes became a little lonely. He picked up the tea cup and lowered his eyes lightly and said, "Taifu Lin is really a good teacher. It's a pity that when he passed away, I was not in the capital and I didn't have time to express condolences for him."
Lin Yunyi comforted him: "People from your house have also come to express their condolences, so you don't need to worry about such a trivial matter."
Qi Lingheng is not remembering the past.
He took a sip of tea, stood up and said, "I still have official duties, so Mr. Li will be sent back by your family."
Lin Yunyi got up to see him off and said, "I'll see you off."
Qi Lingheng nodded and the two of them left the hall together.
When they walked outside, the steward of the Lin family happened to be going out with a bag on his back and was still in a hurry.
Qi Lingheng glanced at the steward, a little curious.
Lin Yunyi felt that Prince Huan was a good man, so he told him a few more things about his family: "He came to Zhongzhou for my sister's business."
"Has your sister been here?"
Qi Lingheng looked at Lin Yunyi, his eyes were calm, but seemed to be bottomless.
Lin Yunyi didn't notice his change, and said in a brisk tone: "Yes, sister came here in person just now. It's a coincidence that you brought Dr. Li here just after sister left."
Qi Lingheng curled his lips.
"That's too unfortunate."
His voice was low and hoarse. Lin Yunyi didn't hear it clearly and asked, "What did you say?"
Qi Lingheng smiled lightly and said: "It's nothing." Then he said to Lin Yunyi: "Okay, you stay and go back to take care of your mother."
Lin Yunyi stood inside the gate and bowed to see him off.
Qi Lingheng nodded, and the boy led his horse over with a wink. He rode away, and Ah Fu followed in the carriage and said goodbye to Lin Yunyi politely.
Lin Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief when the door closed.
The boy also asked him: "Master, why are you nervous?"
No longer having to face Prince Huan, Lin Yun Yicai regained some of the liveliness of a young man. He said: "Prince Huan is a good man and easy to talk to, but after all, he has a high status and cannot be offended. I am afraid that I will offend him by saying the wrong thing."
The boy smiled: "But you were so decent just now."
"I learned it all from my sister." Lin Yunyi said to himself: "It would be great if my sister was here..." In fact, he still wanted to rely on his sister, but unfortunately her sister was already married.
After his mother had gone to bed, he went to prepare a thank-you gift for Prince Huan's Mansion and Master Li Qi according to his sister's instructions.
He told the boy: "When you take Doctor Li back to his residence later, ask the people serving him if the doctor has any preferences."
The boy said yes and asked Lin Yunyi: "What do you want to send to Prince Huan's Mansion?"
Lin Yunyi said: "Don't you need to talk about Prince Huan's residence? What good things have you not seen before?"
"Giving whatever is available to the family, and adding two lone copies left by my father, the prince must also know what the Lin family wants."
Even Lin Yunwan wanted to praise him for being so thoughtful.
Sure enough, the Lin family sent wine to Mr. Li Qi, and a string of beads and two unique books to Prince Huan's Mansion. Both parties were very satisfied.
"Sir, this is the prince's return gift."
Qi Lingheng was generous, including a few precious things and some good medicinal materials, all of which Mrs. Lin could use.
Lin Yunyi took up his pen and wrote a letter to Lin Yunwan, detailing everything at home.
When Lin Yunwan received the letter, she was very pleased: "Yun Yi has really grown up."
Ping Ye and Tao Ye are very proud.
"Madam, you don't have to worry about the Lin family anymore. The young master is here to support you." Ping Ye smiled and put the letter away for Lin Yunwan.
Lin Yunwan was still a little worried: "With so many things at home weighing on him, I don't know if it will affect his studies. His academy is far away, and rushing back and forth all the time is not an option."
Pingye said: "Isn't the teacher at Houfu School very good? Then why not let Master Yi go to Houfu School to study first, so that he can take care of the family more easily."
Taoye also said: "Master Yi is still young and can't talk about marriage yet. There is no mistress in the family. I think Pingye's idea is good."
Lin Yunwan did not agree.
She ordered: "Take a golden landscape painting from my warehouse, a set of Western treasures from the study room, and take out the pearl-embedded forehead wipes, and send them to Xia's house tomorrow."
Taoye took the key to the warehouse and went there.
The next day.
Lin Yunwan and the Wei family went to the Xia family to congratulate them on their move. The Wuding Hou Mansion sent two gift lists, one from the Lu family and one from Lin Yunwan on behalf of the Lin family.
"You kid, your own family is so polite."
Mrs. Xia held her hand very affectionately, her eyes still looking at the golden landscape painting.
It seems that this gift was given rightly.
Lin Yunwan smiled and said, "A family should be more generous."
Mrs. Wei answered from the side: "Yun Wan is right, madam, if you are polite, you are being disrespectful."
Mrs. Xia smiled brightly, and Mrs. Wei suddenly asked, "Why don't you see Jia'er? Where did she go?"
On occasions like this, Lu Jia, as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xia family, must attend.
Mrs. Xia's face immediately became much colder and she said casually: "She is not feeling well, so I will let her rest first."
Wei didn't think much about it, but Lin Yunwan felt it wasn't that simple.
A woman hurried in and said a few words in Mrs. Xia's ear. Her expression changed again. She stood up and asked the other daughters-in-law to take care of the guests, saying that she wanted to go out.
Pingye walked quietly to Lin Yunwan and said, "Madam, I just heard the old lady mention Aunt Jiajia."
You can guess that something must have happened to Lu Jia now.
Lin Yunwan said thoughtfully: "It seems that every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite."
I wonder if Lu Jia would be as generous as when she persuaded her when her husband kept an extramarital wife and her mother-in-law showed favoritism.
Mrs. Wei was very concerned about Lu Jia. She stopped eating melon seeds and whispered to Lin Yunwan: "People here talk about playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I don't understand. Come on, let's go see your sister Jia. "
Lin Yun smiled sweetly: "Okay."
