Chapter 393: Lotus and Tea

The Situ family's headquarters was very large, so big that it was far more than what Su Ling saw. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info So, the same morning, under the same sun, naturally different things happen.

A string of wind chimes made of crystal shine hangs on the lattice, and the breeze blows, exuding a burst of coolness from the tinkling of the wind chimes.

After a closer look, I found that the original transparent crystal was mixed with a little bit of light blue ice particles, which was the cold crystal accidentally found by Situ Jingsi on a business trip to the bitter cold land in the far north, and he specially took it back and carved it into the shape of a wind chime, honoring his father, but the old man didn't seem to be interested in this thing, so he hung it on the window casually, and it was dusty.

Inside the window is a square table carved from sandalwood, in front of which Situ Jingji and his father sit facing each other, watching two or three lotus flowers blooming in the lotus pond outside the window.

Situ Jingsi's expression was indifferent, the green tea brewed in the tea cup in front of the table was rich, and the fragrance of tea soaked into his nose with the breeze, accompanied by the sound of ding dong, which was particularly pleasant.

The old master's eyes stayed on the lotus pond outside the window, "This pond lotus flower has been blooming from the place near the small pavilion for more than ten years, and it has not changed since you were born." ”

"I don't feel that way." Situ Jingsi didn't intend to echo his father, he still looked at the tea cup indifferently, not knowing what he was thinking.

The old master was not annoyed for the first time, but just let out a long sigh of relief and said lightly: "Since you were born, you have never had time to watch the lotus flower at all. ”

"It was a lot of confusion, and there were many things to do besides watching the lotus." Situ Jingsi said lightly, but still turned his gaze to the lotus pond outside the window, and the shadow of the lotus flower was reflected in his clear eyes, which was different from the original scene in the pool, and the lotus in his eyes was not at all angry, no different from the flowers on ordinary ink paintings.

The old master snorted, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You mean that I wasted my time?" ”

"That's not it, my father retired to the mountains when he became famous, so naturally he sees the problem more thoroughly than me, and flower appreciation is also part of it." Situ Jingsi said respectfully, he still has great respect for his father.

The old master shook his head slowly and muttered, "I forced you too hard." ”

Of course, Situ Jingsi understood the meaning of his father's words, but he didn't think it was his father's fault, to be precise, no one was wrong. He voluntarily stepped into the psychic world, received a rigorous education, and inherited the family business; And his father also tried his best to teach him, which is the best of both worlds, so no one is wrong.

If it is said that because of the difficult process during this period, his growth lacks a lot of happiness compared to other peers, it is understandable, after all, he is not determined to do this, what is it to pay a little hardship for what he likes, you can't have both.

He didn't want to hear his father's sadness, so he got up and said, "If my father has no problem with the presbytery's disposition, I'm going to do it." He nodded and saluted, and was about to get up and leave.

The latter stopped him and waved his hand to signal Situ Jingsi to do it again.

And he did.

The old master pondered for a while before he said: "I don't care what happens to the elders, that's the matter of the Situ family, now that I have abdicated, these have nothing to do with me, but that girl named Su Ling, I am very interested, what do you think?" ”

The old family owner didn't sleep all night last night, and he didn't communicate from the dark to the dawn, why did his son, who has always put the interests of the family first, give up the spirit tree at his fingertips for such a girl?

He couldn't figure it out, so he had to use the stupidest way to find out - just ask.

Situ Jingsi was stunned, looked at the dark halo under his father's eye sockets, and today's tiredness, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for his observation skills that needed to be improved, and he didn't even see his father's thoughts.

"Su Ling is a very good psychic who is worth cultivating, and I think I will find more from her than a behemoth like the Spirit Tree, so I have decided to make her my personal assistant in the future." Situ Jingji explained.

This time, it was the turn of the old family owner to be stunned, and his cloudy old eyes could no longer see what his son was thinking, so he only asked innocently: "What about Qiudi?" ”

"Qiu Di is not my personal assistant in the first place, he is in charge of the southern branch of the Eastern Continent, and he has a few hours of time in the headquarters, and it is difficult to find it. Therefore, after Su Ling is promoted, Qiu Di's work will also be reduced, and he will focus more on the management of the Southern Branch, which will be conducive to the future development of the Situ family. ”

Situ Jingsi's legs were thin and long, and when he sat upright, his body was half a head taller than the rickety old master, and the father had no choice but to raise his head slightly to look at his son, who was looking up from his angle.

Looking at Situ Jingsi, who was eloquent and well-organized about the future development of the Situ family, the old family owner felt for the first time that maybe he should really let go and hand over the Situ family with full authority.

Situ Jingsi seems to have been born more mature than other children of the same age, and he is far-sighted, and his attainments in psychics are far beyond others, so what is there to worry about handing over the family business to such a son?

The old master snorted twice from his snort, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, from now on, the Situ family will be yours, and you can toss as much as you like, I don't care." ”

Situ Jingsi heard the relief in his father's words, and before he understood what was going on for a while, he heard his father say again: "Tomorrow I will go to Jiangnan with a few old friends to play, and then go to other places in the Eastern Continent for a walk, I can't come back in three years and five years, you have to take care of yourself." ”

Situ Jingsi was completely stunned, no one informed him of this matter in advance! In order to confirm the reaction of the old family owner to his management of Situ's affairs as soon as possible, Situ Jingsi specially arranged two eyeliners beside his father, because he was an experienced spy, he had not been discovered for so many years, but no one had told his father about going on a trip.

If it wasn't for the problem with the spy he had cultivated, then it was probably his father's impromptu idea.

"Father's ......"

The old master looked at the lotus flower outside the window, and said lightly: "I don't have to worry if the Situ family is handed over to you, I just go out for a walk and have a look, and I am tired of being trapped in the Situ family for a lifetime." That little girl, I don't care what secrets she hides, but you must be careful, after all, she used to be from the Spirit Village. As for your marriage, I don't want to worry about it anymore, so it's up to you. ”

"I don't have to worry about it after I leave, I will come back regularly." Saying that, the old master got up, filled a cup of tea for his son, sat down again, and said, "Actually, you can look at the lotus flowers in the pond more in the future, because when I am my age, you will find that this is not the so-called waste of time." You have a lot of time to manage the Situ family, but the lotus flower only blooms once a year, and you will see it once less......"

After that, the old master got up and left, leaving only Situ Jingsi and the cup of fragrant green tea.
