In the blink of an eye, the patriarch's birthday arrived.

Gift-giving is a science, and it is obviously not okay to give such mundane things as gold, silver and jewelry to the patriarch.

The patriarch loved to splash ink, and Qin Lu prepared an inkstone for him.

It is not an ordinary inkstone, it is a well-known writer and calligrapher Wang Xizhi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and a Langya purple gold inkstone was used.

The inkstone stone is dense, solid, delicate to the touch, warm, knocking is not sound, grinding is silent, rigid but not brittle, soft but not slippery, water storage is not consumed, the ink is sharp, the edge is not retreating for a long time, the stone color is mainly purple and blue, also known as the ancient Fengchi purple stone inkstone, known as the head of the inkstone.

On the day of his birthday, Qin Lu handed over this inkstone to the patriarch.

The patriarch opened it, and his fingers covered with gun calluses stroked the inkstone, full of praise.

It is the inkstone that is praised, and it is also the intention of Qin Lu.

He has used a lot of ink treasures, he naturally knows the goods, this inkstone is different from all the inkstones he has used, and he can't find it without care.

Lin Ning held Qin Lu's arm and smiled at the elder, "Old man, do you like this inkstone given by my boyfriend?" ”

The patriarch laughed, "I like it!" ”

Lin Ning's voice was delicate, "If you don't like it, you have to like it!" ”

The patriarch spread his hands at Qin Lu's stall, and seemed to be disparagement, but in fact praised: "Look at this little girl, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, even an old guy like me has to give her three points." If I do something wrong, I will reprimand her a few words, and she will be able to reprimand me for a long time, no matter how big or small. In the future, if she does something wrong, please discipline me strictly, scold when she should scold, beat her when she should be beaten, I can't control her. ”

Qin Lu secretly admired the old man's language art.

Three sentences, 10,000 hearts and eyes.

If he really beat her, the old man would probably shoot him.

Qin Lu was calm and calm, and said unhurriedly: "Discipline can't be discussed, Xiao Ning and I are lovers, so naturally we teach each other." ”

The patriarch's eyes were blazing, and his chin was praised.

A glimpse of the whole leopard.

In one sentence, you can get a glimpse of Qin Lu's personality, attitude, three views and character.

Lin Ning waved his hand at the elder, "Old man, go and greet the other guests, don't keep surrounding me and Qin Lu, the young man is annoying." ”

Qin Lu pinched her fingers and signaled her not to be presumptuous to the patriarch.

Lin Ning smiled playfully at him, "Don't treat him as a big person, it's just an ordinary old man, it's my grandfather." ”

The patriarch twisted his beard and smiled lovingly, "Yes, Xiao Ning is right, I am just an ordinary old man, don't be restrained, let Xiao Ning take you around the house casually." ”

Lin Ning took Qin Lu to the patriarch's study.

In a place like the study, no one is allowed to enter without the permission of the patriarch.

Lin Ning is an exception.

Even when she was a child, she often scribbled on his calligraphy and paintings, or sprinkled ink on his rice paper, the patriarch would say a few words to her, but never restrain her.

Lin Ning pointed to the calligraphy and paintings on the bookshelf, "These are the old man's ink treasures, which one do you like, take it to your grandfather, he will definitely like it." ”

Gu Aoting is like.

In the study room at home, a large character of the patriarch is hung, which is regarded as a treasure, and someone is specially found to frame it with a pure gold frame.

When people come, I show off to them for a long time.

Qin Lu picked up a large character for comparison, only to realize that the character hanging in Gu Aoting's study was fake, and the stroke and strength were obviously inferior.

Qin Lu rolled the calligraphy and painting and put it back in its place, "No need, this is your grandfather's thing, I can't take it privately." ”

Lin Ning casually picked up a few and stuffed them into his hand, "It's just a few words, nothing is rare, he wrote them out casually." I don't give it away easily, because I am afraid that someone will use it for speculation or do some shady things. ”

Qin Lu still put it back in its place.

Lin Ning is casual, it is the arrogance of the patriarch to her.

He took it without permission, and he didn't know how to be polite.

Lin Ning's phone rang suddenly.

She glanced at it and pressed on.

Mei Qianqian's gentle and humble voice came from the mobile phone, "Xiao Ning, I remember that today is Grandpa Yuan's birthday, right?" Wen Ze and I came over to see the old man, take a look and leave. ”

Afraid of people giving gifts, the birthday of the patriarch has not been made public, and outsiders are not invited to celebrate.

Just call your relatives and a few old subordinates to come over for a meal and take a formality.

According to normal times, Mei Qianqian and Wen Ze are not qualified to participate in this kind of occasion.

But the last time I went to Suzhou City, Lin Ning promised Wen Ze, and it was not good to refuse, so he said: "Come in, when you get to the door, give your mobile phone to the guards, and I will let them go." ”

"Okay."

Soon, Mei Qianqian and Wen Ze entered the house with gifts.

Lin Ning and Qin Lu walked out of the study.

Mei Qianqian and Wen Ze stepped forward to greet the two.

Mei's shallow gaze glanced over Qin Lu's face, and quickly retracted it, knowing that he and Lin Ning were already living together, but she still couldn't suppress her heartbeat.

Wen Ze was down-to-earth and generous, talking about the economy and the international form with Qin Lu.

Mei Qian looked at the picture of the two talking happily, and secretly blamed Wen Ze for not giving strength, but if he gave a little force and took Lin Ning down, then Qin Lu would be hers.

Lin Ning leaned on Qin Lu as if no one was around.

I didn't perceive Mei Qianqian's intentions.

It's not that I'm not sharp enough, but I never put Mei Qianqian in my eyes.

After a while, people came to the living room one after another.

In addition to the Yuan family and the old subordinates of the patriarch, there are also the in-laws of the Yuan family.

Gu Yifeng also came, along with Yuan Jun and Qin Yuening.

Seeing Gu Yifeng and Yuan Jun, Mei's shallow eyes unconsciously released a fine light.

What kind of man is this?

Appearance, height, and bearing are all dragons and phoenixes among people, one is graceful, and the jade tree is in the wind; A deep and introverted temperament, with its own majesty.

Mei Qianqian was annoyed in her heart and hated her poor background.

How many good young talents did she miss out on with this damn background?

Mei Qianqian gently touched Lin Ning with her elbow, and said very quietly: "Xiao Ning, I heard from the people in the company that Gu Yifeng and Gu were divorced, right?" ”

Lin Ning played with Qin Lu's fingers and snorted casually.

Mei Qianqian grabbed her arm, pulled her to the balcony, and begged, "Xiao Ning, can you introduce me and Mr. Gu?" Usually in the company, I can't talk to him at the front desk. ”

Lin Ning raised her eyes and looked at her.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, the toad also wants to eat swan meat?

Too lazy to go around the bend, Lin Ning said directly: "You don't have a show." ”

Mei Qianqian felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't see it on her face, and said in a low voice: "Try it, I'm young and unmarried, and I look good, and I have a relationship with you, Mr. Gu shouldn't embarrass me." Just let you introduce, and I'll do it myself in the future. ”

Lin Ning couldn't help but sneer, "I can't even catch up, can you be better than me?" ”

Mei Qianqian's eyes were cold, and she quickly smiled.

She half-jokingly said, "Then I'll go by myself?" ”

Lin Ning was absent-minded, "If you're not afraid of losing face, you can go." ”

Mei Qianqian turned around and walked towards Gu Yifeng, walked up to him, stretched out her right hand to him, smiled brightly, and said boldly: "Hello Mr. Gu, I am Xiao Ning's friend, my surname is Mei, Mei Qianqian." 'Treading the snow to find Mei Qianqian, drunk poetry is willing to return', this name was changed by Aunt Yuan Shutian for me. It's an honor to meet you here. ”

Gu Yifeng had no impression of this front desk, but when he heard that it was Lin Ning's friend, he said gentlemanly: "Hello." ”

Mei Qianqian raised her mobile phone, "Mr. Gu, can you add a WeChat?" If you have any questions in the future, I can ask you for advice. ”

A young woman adding WeChat is nothing more than picking up and taking the opportunity to hook up.

Asking questions is an excuse.

Gu Yifeng politely refused, "I'm sorry, my WeChat friends have been filled." ”

Mei Qianqian didn't want to give up such a good opportunity, "Can you leave me a private mobile phone number?" Easy to contact. ”

Gu Yifeng's ink eyebrows frowned imperceptibly, "I'm sorry, my wife doesn't allow it." ”

Mei Qianqian was stunned.

Didn't you say divorce?

Where's the wife?

Mei Qian sneered, "Is it my ex-wife?" ”

Gu Yifeng lost his patience, lifted his eyelashes and looked at Lin Ning on the balcony.

What do you mean, what kind of friend are you?

Why is there no sense of proportion at all?

Lin Ning understood, raised his mobile phone at him, called up Gu Xianyun's mobile phone number, and sent her a message: Mrs. Gu, do you remember me? I'm Lin Ning, who chased your ex-husband before. Don't worry, I'm already Qin Lu's woman now, and I love him very much. I heard that you have been abroad and refuse to return to China? If you don't return to China, your husband will be taken away.

After receiving this information, Gu Xianyun, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, read it countless times.

Touching her bulging abdomen, she had a lot of thoughts.
