Chapter 378 Jade Bracelet
On the sixth day after the children were born, Lin Jiaojiao received a letter from Lin Yun and gifts for the children.
Lin Jiaojiao sat beside the crib, swinging a red rope bracelet with two small gold locks in the middle.
"Xia Youdongyi, look quickly, your Aunt Lin Yun gave you a gift. Does it look good?"
The children in the bed were lying on their sides with their eyes open, waving their little hands from time to time.
Lin Yiyan was half lying on the bed, watching her interaction with the children with a smile on his face.
"Lin Yun is so thoughtful to give such an expensive gift."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the gold bracelet in her hand, the corner of her mouth raised with an unstoppable smile, more of it was relief.
"I'm afraid this kid has spent all the money she saved. I'll ask Aunt Lin to send her more living expenses later."
After Lin Fen passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, Lin Shu sold her house and land after the Chinese New Year, and moved her family to a town near Qingzhou to stay at her sister's house.
Lin Jiaojiao knew without thinking that Lin Shu could only give Lin Yun some money for living expenses, and it would be good enough if she could only give her tuition money.
To put it bluntly, he wants to rely on Lin Yun's high school career to succeed, but he is reluctant to make a big investment.
Get the highest return with the lowest investment.
Lin Yiyan didn't object after hearing this. He also saw how Lin Jiaojiao treated Lin Yun and knew that she wanted to give Lin Yun double Lin Shen's share.
"She will take the imperial examination in about a month, right?"
"Yes, but Xia You and Dong Yi are still young and need to be alone. I want to accompany them to Beijing to take the exam in the spring."
He paused. The round trip to Kyoto took about a month, not counting the time spent staying in Kyoto and preparing for the exam.
He didn't want her to go.
But he couldn't say it.
There was no way he could keep her trapped in this small place.
He pursed his lips and forced a smile, looking at Lin Jiaojiao who was teasing the children.
"Okay, but Xiaoqiu and I both have to take care of the kids at that time, otherwise I would have gone with you. I haven't been to Kyoto yet."
After hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao looked up at him and comforted him, "It's okay. I'll take Yizhi with me first. When the children are older, our whole family will go to Kyoto for a tour."
He felt relieved when he heard that she would bring Lin Yizhi with her. No matter how generous he was, he could not accept one man after another approaching her.
It would be better if Lin Yizhi followed me.
"I'm afraid the whole road will be very busy by then."
"It would be better if it's lively. Then we can invite my second uncle, Aunt Lin and her family to come along, and we can just walk and stop along the way to have fun."
Lin Yiyan looked at her excited face, as if she was ready to go, and he smiled helplessly.
"If they all leave, what will happen to our farm and store?"
"right."
Although she can monitor remotely, she cannot solve any problems in time.
"When we go traveling as a family, we have to wait until the children are three or four years old and can talk and run. There is no rush. These few years are enough for us to train a capable management team."
"Okay, it's all up to you."
"We'll come back after touring Kyoto and rest for a few days. We'll go downstream and go out to sea. I'll show you the endless blue sea and you can catch colorful fish..."
Zhao Xiaotong and Tian Yudie who were standing beside them both looked envious when they heard this.
When going out for fun like this, the servants would bring a lot of people with them, so they should have the chance to go along as well.
"Master, Master Fu is here."
There were joyful voices coming from the door. Lin Jiaojiao looked up in surprise, then gave the bracelet given by Lin Yun to Tian Yu's father and put it away. She then stood up and walked away quickly.
As soon as I reached the door of the main room, I saw Fu's father, who was holding Fu Qiu's hand.
She came forward to greet him, "Dad, you've worked hard along the way."
When Fu's father came back from Kyoto, he first went home and then went straight to Linjia Village.
"I'm too old to handle this. Next time, I won't accompany your mother on such a long journey."
Fu Qi's eyes were red and she held Fu's father tightly.
"Well daddy needs to spend more time with me."
"Okay, okay, daddy will stay with our little Qi. Daddy will also help you take care of the children. I heard that Xiaoyan gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. What a blessing! Jiaojie, you two should quickly move in all the things I brought back from Kyoto."
"Okay sir."
As Father Fu spoke, he walked into the main room and explained to everyone.
"Xiaoqiu's mother will be back later. I was bored over there so I came back first. I brought a lot of things from there. Just take whatever you like. There are really too many things."
Lin Jiaojiao didn't understand how many things there were at first, until she saw that the round table was filled with various objects, and even there were many porcelain vases and the like on the floor, as well as a red peony screen, an exquisitely crafted cabinet, and a half-person-high glass lamp.
She realized there were so many things.
Everyone was surprised to see the many glassware on the table. Even the knowledgeable Lin Yizhi and Fu Qi couldn't help but marvel.
"These glass hairpins and earrings are so beautiful."
Father Fu introduced with a smile, "These colored glasses are all brought back by Ling'er from Fanwai for you. There are too many, so take whatever you like."
Father Jiang joked, "Brother-in-law, can Huai'er and I choose too?"
"Pick whatever you want. If you can't pick enough, ask Ling'er to bring back a truckload next time."
Lin Jiaojiao was listening nearby and exchanged glances with Fu Qiu, then secretly gave him a thumbs up for Fu Ling.
As expected, nine out of ten maritime merchants are rich, and one is super rich.
Afterwards, Jiang's father couldn't wait to see the two children, so he took the two gift boxes he had specially prepared and followed Lin Jiaojiao in.
Lin Yiyan had already changed his clothes and was ready to go out for a look, but Fu's father came in and hurriedly said when he saw him get up.
"Xiao Yan, you just gave birth not long ago, go to bed and lie down well, don't let yourself get sick."
Lin Yiyan smiled and replied: "Dad, it's okay. I've been lying down for a whole day. It's time to get up and walk for a while."
After hearing this, Mr. Fu did not insist. He walked to the crib and looked at the children with half-open eyes in the bed. He could not help but exclaim in admiration.
"It's only been a few days and she's already so fair and clean. She's really beautiful."
After he finished speaking, he took out one of the boxes and opened it. Inside were two gold lock collars with three gold bells hanging under the locks. He placed them on the two children respectively.
"It fits just right. The child can wear it when he is older."
Then she took out a emerald green jade bracelet from another box, took Lin Yiyan's hand and was about to put it on him.
Lin Yiyan retracted his hand slightly, "Dad, this is too expensive, I can't take it..."
"Hey, Xiaoyan, you are being polite. You are Xiaoqiu's elder brother. You can accept any gift from your father, no matter how valuable it is. You should wear a jade bracelet like this on your wrist. Look how beautiful it is."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the gold bracelet she had given as a gift next to the jade bracelet and it instantly seemed tacky. Why didn't she think of giving a jade bracelet before?
"It's really beautiful, you can keep it, big brother."
Seeing her say this, Lin Yiyan smiled and thanked his father.
"Thank you dad."
Father Fu sat and played with the child for a while before leaving contentedly.
When Lin Jiaojiao came back from sending Fu's father to the main room, she saw Lin Yiyan taking off the jade bracelet on his wrist.
"Brother, why did you take it? It looks so good when you wear it."
Lin Yiyan smiled slightly and looked at the gold bracelet inside the jade bracelet.
"A bracelet is enough."
