In front of the Lin Mansion.

The carriage came to a halt.

The Lin family's gatekeeper watched Xing'er get out of the carriage and helped Su Jin down.

The two stepped up the steps, and the Lin family said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Looking for Master Lin, he gave the room to my son-in-law, and left a folding fan in the inn, and we came to return it," Xing'er said.

The little guy glanced at Su Jin, "My eldest young master was almost killed by you two and almost ended up on the streets?" ”

Su Jin, "....... ”

Apricot," ....... ”

"On the streets?" Su Jin raised his eyebrows slightly.

The little guy didn't want to mention the shame of his eldest young master, and said, "Even if you still have a conscience, my eldest young master didn't help the wrong person." ”

"You wait first, I'll go and tell my eldest young master."

With that, the little guy turned around and entered the house.

Su Jin and Xing'er looked at each other.

After waiting for a while, Master Lin's little servant came out.

The little guy looked unhappy, "It's really you." ”

It's not cool to be unhappy, people are here to pay back the young master's folding fan, and it can be regarded as a good way to collect gold.

"Childe, please come in."

The little guy led the way, Su Jin walked into the Lin Mansion, and Xing'er followed closely behind.

After walking forward for dozens of steps, I saw Young Master Lin coming over.

Young Master Lin said, "Brother Tai is too polite, I left the folding fan at the inn and sent it to me." ”

Su Jin said with a smile, "If you don't let me live in the room, I won't drop the folding fan, and I should send it to you." ”

Young Master Lin took the folding fan, and from the expression on his face, it could be seen that he liked this folding fan very much.

I don't particularly like it, and I won't bring the folding fan with me in winter.

"I heard from the little guy that after you gave up the inn to me, you almost ended up on the streets?" Su Jin asked.

Young Master Lin smiled, "The little guy is just exaggerating. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was dismantled by his personal servant.

"Why not, if we hadn't traveled overnight, we would have really stayed on the streets overnight," the little guy said.

Young Master Lin thought that he was a classmate of Young Master Qian, so how could he keep him for one night.

Who would have thought that he didn't even enter the gate of the Qian Mansion, saying that Young Master Qian was sick and didn't see any guests.

Young Master Lin is a knowledgeable person, so he gave the prepared gift and left with the little servant.

I searched for a few inns, but there was no place to stay.

The little guy proposed to go to Su Jin, and it was better for two people to squeeze together than to stay on the street overnight.

Young Master Lin didn't agree, bought two horses, and hurried away under the stars.

The Lin family used to be the prefect, and after they were dismissed, the post station did not receive them.

It's cold, and if it weren't for the strong bones in the body, it would really be frostbitten.

Originally, you could go directly to Suzhou by waterway, without hard work, who thought that the boat was requisitioned, and did not know when she could go home, so she abandoned the boat and rode a horse, and the horse was whipped, and it only arrived in the evening before yesterday.

I found that the folding fan was lost in the middle of the road, and I don't know where it was lost, maybe it was bumped off the burden while riding.

Young Master Lin thought that the folding fan was lost, but he didn't expect it to return to his hands.

Su Jin thanked him, and then gave the thank you gift.

Young Master Lin refused to accept it, Su Jin must send it, and he will accept it.

After thanking her, Su Jin was about to leave, Young Master Lin invited her to tea, Su Jin thought for a while and said, "Then bother." ”

Su Jin claimed that her surname was Xie, and Young Master Lin called her Brother Xie.

The two walked forward, and when they entered the second gate, they happened to meet Lord Lin, who had been demoted.

Lord Lin was dressed in a green robe, with an angry face on his face, and when he saw Su Jin, the anger on his face was a little more restrained, adding a bit of elegance and righteousness.

Young Master Lin gave his father a salute and introduced Su Jin by the way.

Su Jin made a move.

Master Lin praised Su Jin a few words, and then walked away.

Xing'er said, "Lord Lin seems to be very angry. ”

The little maid originally looked at Xing'er unpleasantly, but Xing'er said that Lord Lin had a good impression of the little girl, and he sighed, "My master is no longer an adult." ”

Su Jin looked at Young Master Lin, and Young Master Lin said, "My father and Imperial Physician Wei have a good personal relationship, but when something happened to the Wei Mansion, my father was angry, and he hated that he couldn't help the Wei family." ”

Young Master Lin only explained one sentence and put this matter behind him.

Mrs. Lin chased him out, she knew that Lord Lin was going to find Governor Sun's Mansion and asked Governor Sun to release him, so that Young Master Lin persuaded him to do so, but when she saw that Young Master Lin had a guest, she didn't say anything.

Su Jinshun brought Mrs. Lin to the courtesy.

Mrs. Lin looked Su Jin up and down, and smiled, "You talk, I'll ask the maid to prepare snacks for you." ”

Su Jin and Young Master Lin drank a cup of tea in the pavilion, chatted for a while, and then left.

Young Master Lin sent Su Jin to the carriage.

Su Jin walked on the front foot, and Mrs. Lin called Young Master Lin on the back foot and said, "How was that Gongzi Xie just now?" ”

Young Master Lin said, "It is not ignorant to collect gold, and the character is noble." ”

His folding fan was painted by the master of the previous dynasty, and it was worth three hundred taels to say the least, and they could return it, and they also prepared a thank you gift for the guest room, which shows that he is a good person.

Mrs. Lin asked again, "Does he have a family?" ”

Young Master Lin, "......." ”

Young Master Lin had a black line on his face, "Today is the second time I have seen him, how do I know if he has a family?" ”

Mrs. Lin glanced at Master Lin with disgust, "I don't think that son's clothes are not very luxurious, and his family background is on par with my Lin family, your sister and Lu are about to go, and you, as a brother, don't help find one or two." ”

Lord Lin was relegated to his home, and there was no hope of recovery, and Suzhou was the dominant family of Sun Zhifu, and no one dared to risk offending Sun Zhifu to come to the door to ask for relatives.

For the sake of Young Master Lin and Miss Lin's family affairs, Mrs. Lin was heartbroken.

Seeing that there is a son of the right age and a noble character passing by, can she not worry?

Family background is secondary, and the important thing is to have a good character.

"Mother, Brother Xie and I just met in Pingshui, he came to Suzhou to make a detour to deliver folding fans, how can I beat other people's ideas?" Young Master Lin said with a headache.

"Passing by, you can also ask, maybe you can take a detour to get a good marriage?" Mrs. Lin said disapprerovingly.

“……。”

"Let's go."

“……。”

What could Young Master Lin do, he had known that he would not leave Brother Xie to drink that cup of tea.

However, for the sake of his sister's good, Young Master Lin still showed his face to find Su Jin.

Young Master Lin rode out of the mansion.

In the house, Mrs. Lin was sipping tea lightly, and the maid was wiping the table, and when she saw a brocade box on the table, she turned around and called, "Chunliu, why did you put the brocade box here casually, what if it fell?" ”

Chunliu hurriedly came over and said, "This brocade box is a thank you gift from Gongzi Xie to the eldest young master, the eldest young master's little servant Changfeng stuffed it to me, let me help him send it to the eldest young master's house, I was busy with things at hand, so I brought my wife to the yard." ”

"I'll send it to him in a moment."

The maid was curious and asked in a low voice, "What did you give?" ”

"Changfeng said it was a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones," Chunliu said.

The maid glanced at Mrs. Lin and opened the brocade box to take a look.

After taking a look, he was amazed, "What a beautiful inkstone." ”

Mrs. Lin drank tea and listened, "What inkstone?" ”

The maid held the brocade box and gave it to Mrs. Lin, "It's the inkstone that Gongzi Xie gave to the eldest young master." ”

Mrs. Lin glanced at it, and her brows froze, "This, this seems to be ......." ”

She hurriedly put down the teacup and picked up the inkstone to look at it.

The more I watched, the more frightened I became.

"Quick, go and call the eldest young master back!" Mrs. Lin said urgently.

……

Inside the inn.

Su Jin returned to the inn with his front feet, and as soon as he sat down and put the tea cup in his hand, there was a knock on the door.

Xing'er went to open the door and saw that it was Young Master Lin, a little confused, "Young Master Lin?" ”

Su Jin was also puzzled.

She just came back from the Lin Mansion, why did Young Master Lin come?

She got up to greet her and said, "Young Master Lin came to me for something?" ”

Young Master Lin had a look on his face, "No, it's nothing...... ”

Will nothing come?

Su Jin invited him into the house, and Xing'er poured him tea.

Seeing that Young Master Lin wanted to speak and stopped, Su Jin said, "Young Master Lin might as well say it directly." ”

Young Master Lin was really ashamed to say it, he looked at Su Jindao and said, "Brother Xie is married?" ”

Su Jin, "....... ”

Apricot," ....... ”

Why does this sound like a matchmaker for her?

Su Jin pretended to be stupid, scratched his forehead and said, "Why did Young Master Lin ask that?" ”

Young Master Lin was really embarrassed to say that his mother wanted him to marry his sister, and he never lied, so he lied for the first time, "My mother loves to be a matchmaker, and I see that Brother Xie is not ......very old." ”

After all, he is only a little over sixteen years old, and there are few wives at this age.

My sister will have to wait a few months before she arrives, so it is appropriate to stay with her father and mother for an extra year.

The corners of Su Jin's mouth twitched, a little distressed that Young Master Lin had a mother who liked to be a matchmaker, so he was forced to inquire.

Even she's only seen once, and it's not uncommon for her to think about it.

Just a wife......

Don't think about it in this life.

The mind is more than enough.

But with the kindness of others, Su Jin couldn't refuse directly, she touched the mask on her face and said, "I have a flawed appearance, I'm afraid I'm going to live up to my aunt's good intentions." ”

Young Master Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's just that the appearance is flawed, it's not a big deal, the more important thing is the character and talent, although Brother Xie and I have only met twice, Brother Xie's character is like a Zhilan jade tree, which is admirable." ”

Su Jin, "....... ”

Xing'er stood aside, almost holding back her internal injuries.

She has been following the girl for so long, and it is the first time she has seen others praise the girl's character and talent.

Not to mention the character, of course, the character of the girl is the best, but how can you see this talent?

Her girl not only wore a mask, but also changed her appearance.

Xing'er looked at Su Jin, her eyes were sour, and she didn't find the talent exuded by her own girl.

Thinking that Su Jin claimed to be surnamed Xie, Xing'er was a little worried that her girl was too pitiful, and she recruited peach blossoms for her uncle.

Su Jin coughed lightly a few times, and was about to speak, when the door slammed.

"Come in," Apricot said.

The door opened, and a small servant walked in and said, "Young Master, Madam told you to go back quickly." ”

Young Master Lin frowned, "What's wrong?" ”

The little guy shook his head.

He doesn't know.

"Madame is in a hurry, the eldest young master should hurry up and go back."

Young Master Lin hurriedly got up and said goodbye to Su Jin.

Su Jindu was worried about him if something big had happened to the Lin Mansion, and it wouldn't have anything to do with Lord Lin going to Governor Sun's Mansion, right?
