Liang Mulan turned to the side and asked the servant to bring Lin Nuan's birthday present over.
He brought the dark, navy blue box over to him.
"What is this, it's so big …" Lin Jingquan stood up and opened the present himself.
Inside the dark blue box was a Southern Song Dynasty Longquan porcelain vase with green glaze.
Lin Jingquan paused, then carefully picked up the vase and walked to the French windows. He raised the vase in the dusty sunlight and studied it against the light.
Under the golden sunlight, the porcelain was as thick as jade, its surface glowing with a strong luster.
Lin Jingquan hurriedly asked the servant to bring his glasses over. He put on his glasses and studied it for a long time. He knocked his fingers on the vase and listened to the sound. His eyes lit up when he was sure it was real …
"Green like jade, clear like a mirror, clear like a chime!" Lin Jingquan took off his glasses and held the vase in his hands like it was a treasure. His voice was filled with joy and surprise. "I've been looking for this vase for a long time! I couldn't find it no matter how I asked around, how did Huai 'an find it? "
Lin Nuan was also very surprised to see this Southern Song Dynasty Longquan porcelain vase. Lin Nuan had seen this exact same vase in Lin Jingquan's collection room … in the past.
Lin Jingquan had a hobby of collecting antiques, and he especially liked this Song Dynasty vase.
Thirteen years ago, at an auction, Lin Jingquan won a Southern Song Dynasty Longquan Kiln pink-green glazed phoenix ear vase. At that time, Lin Jingquan said that this vase was a pair, and if he could collect this pair of vases in his lifetime, he would have no regrets in this life.
Lin Nuan was confused. How did Fu Huai 'an know Lin Jingquan liked this vase?
Seeing Lin Nuan's confused expression, Lin Jingquan knew she didn't know about it beforehand …
Lin Jingquan closed his eyes and passed it to the servant. "Huai 'an, thank you!"
Lin Jingquan said this while restraining his joy, but his expression wasn't as reserved as his deep voice. Liang Mulan covered her mouth and laughed …
This pair of vases, one was in Lin Jingquan's hands, and the other's whereabouts were unknown. The price kept rising!
One vase was already expensive, but now it was a pair. It was priceless.
"I'll put the vase away first!"
Lin Jingquan carried the vase to his collection room and didn't come out for a long time …
Liang Mulan glanced at her wristwatch and said, "Your dad is probably in his collection room looking at his vases!"
Later, Lin Jingquan only came out of the collection room after Fu Huai 'an brought Tuan Tuan over.
Tuan Tuan had finished his handicraft homework at school. The moment he saw Lin Jingquan, he stood by Lin Nuan's leg in a reserved manner, his little hand tugging at Lin Nuan's clothes as he looked up at Lin Nuan. Seeing Lin Nuan nod at him, Tuan Tuan walked up to Lin Jingquan and handed him the little card he had made with both hands. "Grandpa … happy birthday!"
When Lin Jingquan saw the white, tender, and chubby little ball, his heart almost melted. Under the little one's expectant gaze, Lin Jingquan took the card and rubbed the ball's little head. He reached out to carry the ball on his lap and opened the card to look at it together with the ball …
Although the drawing style in Tuan Tuan's card was very strange, Lin Jingquan was not stingy with his praise. He insisted that Tuan Tuan had great talent in drawing and wanted to keep this card forever!
Knowing that Lin Jingquan was Lin Nuan's father, Tuan Tuan didn't reject it. He obediently let Lin Jingquan carry him on his lap, nodding and smiling obediently.
Seizing the opportunity, Liang Mulan asked Tuan Tuan, "Little Tuan Tuan, do you like a younger brother or younger sister?"
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
She knew that Liang Mulan was urging Lin Chen to get married.
[Please note: Please pay attention to resting your eyes when reading for a long time.] [Recommended reading:]
Unable to hold a grandson, she had made up her mind to force her to give birth to a child …
Tuan Tuan still remembered Lin Nuan saying that a younger sister was like Papa, and a younger brother was like Mama. He replied seriously, "Younger brother!"
"Then let Mama quickly give birth to a younger brother for you, okay?" Liang Mulan smiled and said.
Tuan Tuan's chubby little face was serious as he nodded. "Papa is awesome! Very soon! "
Lin Nuan's face instantly turned red …
Fu Huai 'an was rendered speechless.
The couple didn't expect Tuan Tuan to repeat what Fu Huai 'an said to coax Tuan Tuan to sleep. Lin Nuan simply wanted to find a hole to hide in!
A child's words carried no harm, and everyone in the room almost burst out laughing.
What did a child of Tuan Tuan's age know? The child must have said something that an adult had said, and the child must have copied it.
Liang Mulan restrained her laughter. Seeing that Lin Nuan couldn't sit still anymore, she finally stopped bringing up this topic!
Lin Jingquan's birthday celebration was simple. Although Second Uncle Lin Jinghui was extremely busy, he still rushed over for his older brother's birthday.
Although Fu Huai 'an was now his niece's son-in-law, Lin Jinghui still remembered Fu Huai' an's kindness in saving him, so he was extra polite when speaking to Fu Huai 'an.
During the meal, Lin Jingquan asked Fu Huai 'an about the Southern Song Dynasty Longquan Kiln Phoenix Ear Vase. Fu Huai' an said that he had searched for it for a long time before he found it. A few days ago, he heard that someone had collected this Southern Song Dynasty Longquan Kiln Phoenix Ear Vase. Fu Huai 'an rushed over to persuade the collector for a long time before he managed to persuade him to part with it.
Lin Jingquan didn't seem to expect that Fu Huai 'an had personally gone to find this vase for him. After all, he was once part of the company's management and knew how busy the company was, especially for a large corporation like the Kaide Corporation. As the chairman, Fu Huai' an's schedule should be full and he should be extremely busy!
Lin Jingquan couldn't help but feel touched by Fu Huai 'an's thoughtfulness. He got someone to open the limited edition wine he had brought back from a French wine manor two years ago and let Fu Huai' an have a taste after he woke up.
Lin Nuan had always thought that Gu Shaoting wouldn't be coming back since Lin Ran wasn't around. Unexpectedly, not long after dinner started, the security guard called to say that Young Master Gu Shaoting had arrived.
Gu Shaoting had brought an inkstone for Lin Jingquan. Lin Nuan had been with Lin Jingquan for so many years, so she knew some good and bad things. She could tell that this inkstone was an old item!
In the past, when Gu Shaoting was engaged to Lin Nuan, he didn't pay so much attention to Lin Jingquan's birthday. Giving him an inkstone was clearly something that Lin Jingquan liked.
Lin Nuan picked up some food for Ji Yun. She couldn't hide the smile in her eyes when she thought of Lin Ran.
After dinner, Tuan Tuan had already fallen asleep on Lin Nuan's shoulder …
Liang Mulan was afraid that Tuan Tuan would fall asleep and catch a cold, so she asked Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an's family to stay the night at the Lin residence.
However, Fu Huai 'an refused on the grounds that he still wanted to send Ji Yun back to the villa.
Fu Huai 'an understood Lin Nuan. She cared about Lin Ran's feelings, so she wasn't willing to cross that line in Lin Ran's heart!
Lin Ran felt at ease and was willing to interact with Lin Nuan. Lin Nuan was afraid that she might accidentally cross that line in Lin Ran's heart, so she was inevitably careful when interacting with the Lins.
After sending Ji Yun back to the villa, Lin Nuan, Fu Huai 'an, and Tuan Tuan didn't leave. They stayed in the villa to rest.
Although from now on, the monthly votes were no longer three! Qianqian was still asking for monthly votes! Qianqian had taken some time to add chapters for everyone today. She had just rushed back from Shanghai and was very tired. She would add chapters for the babies after she woke up!
