Chapter 162 Buying Jewelry and Meeting the Children
Although the accessories on this stall are not particularly expensive or gorgeous, each piece looks exceptionally beautiful and exquisite, and is especially suitable for girls of the sisters' age.
Most of those hairpins are made of wooden rods inlaid with exquisite silver patterns; however, there are also a few hairpins made entirely of pure silver, but their prices are relatively higher.
As for the earrings, they are almost all silver, with various styles and unique features, and only a few pairs are pearl earrings.
In addition, there are all kinds of colorful hair flowers and countless hair bands. The variety and brilliant colors are so great that the two little girls are dazzled and don’t know where to start.
The stall owner was a pretty young woman. Seeing this scene, she enthusiastically recommended it to Lin Qingxue, "Madam, look at these hairpins. They will be perfect for your two daughters! And you see, the pearls embellishing them are all of the highest quality. And the best part is, they're very affordable. One of these hairpins only costs eighty coins!"
The hairpin that Lin Qingxue was holding had a wooden stem and a pattern of a pearl wrapped in silver, suitable for little girls.
"Okay, we'll take this. Let's pay together later. The children are still choosing," Lin Qingxue smiled and calmly put the hairpin she had picked aside.
"Okay, ma'am," the stall owner smiled immediately after hearing Lin Qingxue's words. As long as she is willing to buy, that's good. Seeing that the madam is also a dote on children, she must be a big customer.
Lin Qingxue nodded slightly and was about to pay for it, but Gu Jinxuan paid the bill first.
He handed the hairpin to Lin Xiaoya and Lin Xiaowan and said, "This is a gift from your uncle. Do you like it?"
The two sisters jumped for joy and said in unison: "I like it. Thank you, uncle!"
Lin Qingxue looked at the scene in front of her and felt warm in her heart. In this bustling market, with Gu Jinxuan by her side, she felt extremely at ease.
Lin Xiaoya and Lin Xiaowan know very well that Lin Qingxue is their most solid backing and support. On weekdays, under the words and deeds of everyone in the Lin family, the courage of the two sisters gradually increases.
Especially when they learned that Lin Qingxue allowed them to choose the items themselves, they believed it without a doubt, because Lin Qingxue always kept her word and it was not just talk.
So the two sisters came to the stall happily and began to pick carefully.
They would pick up a pair of exquisite earrings, shake them gently, and listen to the clear and pleasant sounds; then they would cast their eyes on a unique hairpin, imagining how beautiful it would be when worn on their heads; occasionally they would pick up a colorful hairband and play with it lovingly.
In this way, after careful screening, the two sisters finally selected a total of ten favorite items from the dazzling array of goods, including not only earrings and hairpins, but also various hairbands and so on.
Lin Xiaoya held the ten pieces of jewelry carefully, as if she was holding the most precious treasures in the world, and ran to Lin Qingxue with joy.
The little girl's big watery eyes sparkled with hope, as bright and moving as the stars in the night sky.
She raised her head slightly, looked at her mother timidly, and said in a voice as soft as a breeze: "Mother, can we have all these?"
Her gentle tone and innocent expression made her look even more adorable, like an exquisite porcelain doll.
Anyone who sees such a cute little appearance will probably soften their heart and even have the urge to give up everything to fulfill all her wishes.
It seemed as if if he didn't agree to her request immediately, he would become the most hateful and unforgivable person in the world.
At this moment, before Lin Qingxue could respond to her daughter's question, Gu Jinxuan could no longer hold back and quickly stood up.
For him, this moment is a perfect opportunity to show his value and win the favor of the beautiful woman. How can he just stand by and watch?
So, without hesitation, he said, "If you like it, buy it! I'll pay for you."
His words revealed a lot of boldness and magnanimity. Hearing this, Lin Qingxue couldn't help but open her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, she saw that Gu Jinxuan had already signaled Wen Su beside him to pay the money.
Helplessly, she could only shake her head gently and sigh silently. Although she was a little dissatisfied in her heart, it was pointless to say more since things had come to this point.
After successfully purchasing the accessories that the two little girls liked, the group continued to stroll leisurely in the bustling market.
They fully felt the atmosphere of fireworks brought by the bustling crowds around them, and enjoyed this hard-earned and extremely warm and beautiful time.
Before we knew it, the sun gradually rose higher and hung high in the sky, and the scorching sunlight mercilessly poured down on the earth. It was noon now, and it was time to enjoy lunch.
"Let's go eat!"
Gu Jinxuan had a gentle smile on his face, his eyes lovingly cast on the two little girls in front of him, and asked softly, "Xiaoya, Xiaowan, what do you want to eat?"
His handsome face looked particularly friendly at this moment, like the warmest sunshine in spring, which made people feel good about him.
You know, if nothing unexpected happens, these two lovely girls will become his daughters in the future.
They are the apple of the eye of the Duke of Protector's Mansion and should thrive in endless love. Thinking of this, Gu Jinxuan's heart is filled with love.
Lin Xiaoya blinked her bright eyes, tightly grasped Lin Qingxue's arm, tilted her head back slightly, and said coquettishly in a soft and sweet voice, "Mom, I want to eat grilled fish! The grilled fish you sent me last time was so delicious, but it was gone after I only took two bites, woo woo..."
Her aggrieved look was so adorable that Lin Xiaowan, who was standing beside her, quickly agreed: "Yes, mother! Xiaowan wants to eat grilled fish too, and I also want to drink sweet milk tea~"
After saying that, she tugged at the corner of Lin Qingxue's clothes with her little hands, pouted her lips, and looked pitiful.
Gu Jinxuan looked at the two sisters who were so cute and adorable that he felt his heart was about to melt.
Although his two children have a close relationship with him, they rarely act like this to him. At this moment, he really wants to fulfill all their wishes immediately.
"Then let's go eat grilled fish! Wen Du, go to the milk tea shop and buy some milk tea. After that, go back to the Gu Mansion and pick up the young master and the young lady to have a meal together."
At this time, Gu Jinxuan was staring at Lin Qingxue, her mother and daughter, as if he was afraid that they would suddenly disappear.
There was an indescribable light flickering in his deep eyes, making it difficult to understand his true thoughts.
Although his eyes were always on Lin Qingxue and the others, the words he spoke were directed to Wen Tuan who was standing behind him.
Moreover, his tone when he spoke was extremely cold and hard, without any emotion, as if he was just giving a simple order.
"Yes, I'll go buy some milk tea right away, and then go back to the mansion to pick up the young master and the young lady," Wen Wen responded, then turned and drove the carriage towards the milk tea shop not far away.
"Let's go! Let's go to the restaurant next door!" Lin Qingxue looked at Gu Jinxuan with a smile. Seeing that Gu Jinxuan agreed to the request of her two lovely daughters without hesitation, she couldn't help feeling a little warm and relieved in her heart.
"Okay!" Gu Jinxuan nodded in response with a smile. His eyes fell on Lin Qingxue, and his eyes showed tenderness and pampering.
He had no hesitation about this proposal, because as long as he could make everyone happy, it didn't matter where they went.
Upon hearing Lin Qingxue's decision, Lin Xiaoya and her sister were as excited as two happy little birds. They danced with joy and their faces were filled with bright smiles.
At this time, the streets were bustling with people, and various sounds intertwined together, forming a noisy scene.
However, this did not affect the Lin Qingxue family's determination to go to the neighboring restaurant. Since the carriage was used by the temperature, they had no choice but to walk to the neighboring restaurant for lunch.
Fortunately, they were shopping in Dongcheng at the moment, and the neighboring restaurant was not too far away, so it wouldn't take too much time to walk there.
So the family walked slowly along the street with brisk steps.
Along the way, the children looked around curiously, filled with a sense of novelty about everything around them; Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan chatted quietly, sharing each other's feelings and interesting stories. The sunlight shining on them, reflecting a warm and beautiful picture.
After walking for about half an hour, we finally arrived at the neighboring restaurant. Although the restaurant was not big, it looked quite elegant. There were two red lanterns hanging at the door, giving people a warm feeling.
As soon as she entered the door, the waiter spotted Lin Qingxue with his sharp eyes. He was obviously very familiar with Lin Qingxue and immediately greeted her with a smile on his face: "Fourth Miss, you are here. There is a private room upstairs."
As he spoke, he led Lin Qingxue and the group behind her straight to the second floor.
It turns out that every shop under the Lin family's name has a private room reserved exclusively for the Lin family to dine.
In this way, if all the private rooms are booked by other guests one day, our family members will not be left with nowhere to sit.
After a while, everyone took their seats in the reserved box on the second floor. The box was decorated very exquisitely, with several landscape paintings hanging on the wall, and the tables and chairs were made of high-quality wood, which looked particularly elegant.
After everyone was seated, the waiter came forward with a smile on his face and asked enthusiastically, "Fourth Miss, what would you like to eat? How about their signature grilled fish?"
Lin Qingxue gracefully sat down with her two delicate daughters. Without even raising her eyelids, she casually replied, "Well, let's start with a serving of grilled fish! As for the other side dishes, I'll trouble you to pair them with something refreshing and tasty. Oh, and two large pots of sour plum soup."
The waiter nodded quickly and then asked cautiously, "Okay, Fourth Miss, but do you have anyone else coming to dine? If not, would you like to prepare six or eight dishes?"
After saying that, he first quickly glanced at Gu Jinxuan and others sitting opposite him, and then his gaze fell on Lin Qingxue.
It turned out that Gu Jinxuan brought Wen Su and Wen De with him this time, and Lin Qingxue, in addition to her two well-behaved and lovely daughters, also had Wen Shui and Wen Nuan with her.
That's why the waiter asked this question. After all, in most cases, masters usually would not allow their servants to dine at the same table with them.
Lin Qingxue pondered for a moment, glanced at Gu Jinxuan, and seeing that he looked calm, she said softly, "Let's just serve eight dishes. Everyone's been tired all morning, so let's have a simple meal together."
Upon hearing this, the waiter's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly regained his professional smile and replied, "Okay, Fourth Miss, I'll prepare it right away."
After the waiter left in a hurry, about a few minutes later, he was seen walking upstairs briskly, holding a pot of iced sour plum soup in each hand.
Soon, Thermometer came slowly towards them, leading Gu Jinxuan's two children, Gu Huaiyuan and Gu Huaining.
At this moment, he was following closely behind the two young masters like a loyal guard, and in his hands he was holding twelve servings of fragrant milk tea steadily.
"Master, I have brought the two young masters here," Wen Wen first knocked on the door gently, and waited until Gu Jinxuan's voice allowed them to enter, then he carefully pushed open the door and led Gu Huaiyuan and Gu Huaining into the room.
When Gu Jinxuan saw his two children had arrived, a solemn expression instantly appeared on his face, and he immediately said, "Huaiyuan, Huaining, come quickly to greet your Aunt Xue and her two younger sisters, Xiaoya and Xiaowan."
After saying this, he looked at his children expectantly. Hearing their father's words, Gu Huaiyuan and Gu Huaining both walked over obediently.
Gu Huaiyuan was dressed in a blue brocade robe, his eyebrows sharp and his eyes sparkling, and he looked very imposing. Meanwhile, Gu Huaining was dressed in a pink silk dress, with a cute face and elegant manners. The two of them standing together were truly as eye-catching as a golden boy and a beautiful girl.
Lin Qingxue gazed at the pair of elegant siblings in front of her, secretly admiring them. Then she smiled and said gently, "Huaiyuan, Huaining, it's our first meeting. I'm very happy to meet you."
Her eyes were full of kindness, like the gentle spring breeze, making people feel friendly and warm, and unable to help but want to get closer.
"Aunt Xue, Sister Xiaoya, Sister Xiaowan," Gu Huaiyuan and Huaining walked to Gu Jinxuan and shouted in unison to Lin Qingxue, mother and daughter.
"Brother Huaiyuan, Sister Huaining," without waiting for Lin Qingxue to speak, Lin Xiaoya pulled Lin Xiaowan and called for help.
Seeing that the four children got along well, Gu Jinxuan finally felt relieved, and Lin Qingxue also breathed a sigh of relief.
