Chapter 337 Hehua
Jiang Huai stood up and sat down next to Jiang's father, saying softly.
"Dad, you must have had a hard time on the road."
Jiang's father hadn't seen him for nearly half a year, and he looked carefully at Jiang Huai, who was wearing a veil hat in front of him.
Because he was wearing a veil, he could only see Jiang Huai's figure. Seeing that he was not as thin as he had imagined, his inner anxiety was relieved.
He reached out and took Jiang Huai's hand, and whispered, "There is no one else in the room, take off your veil and let Dad see you."
Of course Jiang Huai knew that his father wanted to see how he was doing, but he was afraid that the blush on his face had not yet disappeared, so he couldn't refuse.
"Dad, how about we go to the small garden in the backyard? I'm sure you will enjoy the flowers there."
Father Jiang had no idea what he was thinking and thought he wanted to tell him something in private, so he agreed immediately.
"Well, you mentioned it in your letter earlier, so now is a good time to go and see if it is as fragrant as you said."
When Fu Qi heard that they were going to the small garden, she also wanted to go, but before she could stand up, she was stopped by Lin Yiyan.
"The fragrance of the flowers in the garden is too strong. Have you forgotten that you felt sick last time?"
"Oh, I almost forgot. Thanks for reminding me, big brother."
Jiang Huai took his father out of the main hall and walked towards the moon-shaped door on the left.
Father Jiang looked around and said with satisfaction, "This newly built courtyard is quite a bit bigger. Didn't you hire a gardener?"
Jiang Huai also followed his gaze and saw the overgrown shrubs around him.
"Well, these courtyards are not occupied yet, and usually only Uncle Zhao and his people clean them."
"There are too few servants. How about Dad send all the servants in your yard? It's not enough for you to have only Zhuxue by your side."
Zhu Xue, who was following behind, felt his heart tighten when he heard his name. Just as he was waiting for his young master to answer, Jiang's father turned around and looked him up and down.
"I didn't notice it before, but Zhuxue has gained weight and I can hardly recognize her."
Zhuxue's expression froze, and he felt as if his heart was stabbed. He swore that he would not eat dinner starting tomorrow.
As for why we don’t start tonight, it’s because we must eat delicious food tonight.
Seeing Zhuxue was about to cry, Jiang Huai hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"I've gained some weight, too."
Father Jiang's attention immediately returned to him, and he took his hand and looked him up and down.
"You look more symmetrical than before. Take off your veil so that Dad can see if you have gained any weight on your face."
Jiang Huai also knew that he couldn't escape, so he reached out to untie the rope around his jaw and took off the veil, revealing a beautiful face with fair skin and rosy cheeks.
Father Jiang looked very satisfied. The good thing about Lin Jiaojiao was that she was good at keeping people happy.
"Okay, okay, Huai'er's face is full of color now that he's here. I guess he's used to living here."
Jiang Huai nodded slightly, "It's a habit. There is everything here, it's very convenient. It's very pleasant to go out and enjoy the lotus and the lake."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Jiang's father took his hand and patted it.
"That's good. Dad is just worried that you'll be bored here. After all, it's not as convenient in the countryside as in the city. Eh? What kind of flower fragrance is so refreshing?"
Jiang Huai glanced at the Begonia Gate in front of him, smiled slightly and said, "It's lilies, planted by Lin Jiaojiao."
"She planted it herself?"
"Yes, I planted it with Lin Yizhi."
"They still have such a good relationship, so you..."
From the beginning, Jiang's father wanted to ask him how the relationship between him and Lin Jiaojiao was going. If they were in love with each other, he could ask Lin Jiaojiao to prepare to marry Jiang Huai earlier. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for him to live here without any status.
He also didn't know why his son, who had always had no desires, insisted on marrying Lin Jiaojiao and shamelessly lived in someone else's home.
He was angry and cursed at that time, but this was a piece of flesh that fell from his body and he had always loved him dearly. After watching him kneeling in the ancestral hall for a night, he compromised and agreed.
He could have directly let Lin Jiaojiao marry him, after all, the two had been engaged since childhood, but he disagreed and insisted on living with her to cultivate their relationship and let Lin Jiaojiao take the initiative to marry him.
He felt that it was a bit risky for Lin Jiaojiao to take the initiative to propose to him.
He was quite satisfied with the character and all other aspects of this righteous woman. If he had not known that Jiang Huai was determined to marry her, he would not have agreed after kneeling in front of Jiang Huai for a whole night.
Apart from having an extra husband, Lin Jiaojiao is indeed a rare good wife in the world.
Jiang Huai did not hide it, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised when he thought of the first step she took yesterday.
"We just made some progress yesterday, so there's no rush."
"Just yesterday?"
Father Jiang's voice unconsciously rose, and then he whispered anxiously.
"You're not in a hurry? It's been almost half a year, and you'll be Double Ten in just over a month."
"Well, I'm on Double Ten and she's on Double Ten too."
Father Jiang was a little anxious, "Is it the same? Listen to Daddy, Daddy will ask your mother to talk to her, Jiao Jie'er will not disagree."
Jiang Huai gently broke free from his hand and continued walking towards the Begonia Gate in front.
"Dad, you promised not to interfere in this matter, so don't mention it again."
Father Jiang sighed as he looked at his back. He didn't know whose temper this child resembled, he was very stubborn.
He walked quickly forward and passed through the crabapple door. The rich fragrance of flowers filled his face and the aroma was everywhere.
He was immediately attracted by the scene before him. This place was indeed as described in Jiang Huai's letter.
The garden was not very big. There was a three-tiered small pond in the middle, surrounded by exotic flowers and plants that bloomed all year round, many of which he couldn't even name.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on this dreamy garden. The interweaving of colors, light and shadow makes time seem to stand still, making people indulge in this tranquility and beauty.
Jiang Huai was standing in front of the three-tiered small pool. He quickly walked over to him and could see clearly that the pool was covered with flowers.
"Is this the fountain you were talking about?"
"Well, it's only interesting when it rains. When the water is full, it will flow down layer by layer like a waterfall."
"It looks pretty good, but the style is not like our Chaoqi's. I guess this is what Jiaojie saw in the extra chapter."
Jiang Huai did not answer his question, but reached out and picked up a hydrangea from the water.
"This is a hydrangea. The flowering period has just passed. If you put it in water, it will bloom longer. If you come later, you won't be able to see it."
"Luckily I caught up with them. The clusters do look nice, but they don't have much fragrance."
"The most fragrant flower is lily. The lilies are planted on the wall in front."
Father Jiang looked over and saw a field of pink and white flowers. The more he looked at the pinkness of the flowers, the more he liked them. The fragrance became stronger the closer he got.
"The shape of this lily is somewhat similar to that of the amaryllis flower. They each have their own beauty, but the fragrance of the lily is superior."
"So Daddy, you have to have faith in me."
......
"Lan Yi, we haven't seen each other for such a long time, don't you want to say welcome? Or do you think it's better to partner with Lan Jiu?"
Lan Yi took Lan Qi to familiarize himself with the terrain of Linjia Village. He never stopped talking along the way. If she didn't answer his questions, he would keep asking.
"As expected, you think it's better to partner with Lan Jiu."
"..."
"If that's true, Lan Jiu is a skilled martial artist and is efficient. Lan Er and Lan San both like to partner with Lan Jiu."
"..."
"Hey, I'll leave after the first and second husbands give birth and bring Lan Jiu back."
"..."
"So do you think it's better to partner with Lan Jiu?"
"Better with you."
