Chapter 222 Xu Jingcheng and Huan'er
In mid-May of the second year after Lin Shuo's marriage, Xu Jingcheng came to see Lin Qian. He was shy and evasive, but he didn't say why he came.
"Eldest disciple, I'm very busy. Why are you here? If you don't tell me, I'll leave." Lin Qian said to Xu Jingcheng.
A group of students from the Medical Academy are about to graduate this year, and Lin Qian has been quite busy with this matter these days.
Seeing that Lin Qian was getting impatient, Xu Jingcheng blushed and told her why he came to see her.
"Oh? You want to marry Huan'er. Is Huan'er willing to marry you?" Lin Qian looked at Xu Jingcheng and asked with raised eyebrows.
"I haven't asked her yet, Master, can you ask her for me?" Xu Jingcheng said to Lin Qian. Although his face was red, his eyes were serious.
Lin Qian was extremely pleased, but she didn't show it on her face. She said, "Okay, I'll go ask for you later. But what if Huan'er doesn't want to marry you?"
"I don't know, but I will try my best to make her like me and be willing to marry me." Xu Jingcheng thought for a moment and said seriously.
She had always thought that the two disciples were a good match. Now, Lin Qian knew Xu Jingcheng's feelings, and the next step was to ask Huan'er.
When Huan'er heard Lin Qian's question, she was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red. Lin Qian knew that the matter was settled as soon as she saw it.
"Master, let me have a good talk with my senior brother about this matter first." Huan'er was a very opinionated girl. After thinking carefully, she said to Lin Qian.
Lin Qian naturally agreed. This was a lifelong event for the two of them, so they naturally had to discuss it carefully.
I don’t know what the two of them talked about, but the next day, Xu Jingcheng came to see her with Huan’er.
"I think August is a good date. How about you hold your wedding in August?" Lin Qian asked, looking at their clasped hands and rosy faces.
But Huan'er said, "Master, I'll discuss my marriage with my senior brother later. I have something I want to ask of you now."
"What?"
Huan'er looked at Xu Jingcheng beside her, and Xu Jingcheng said, "Master, Huan'er wants you to take us to the palace. Huan'er wants the palace maids and eunuchs to meet me."
A few months after Huan'er and Lin Qian left the palace, Nanny Yu passed away. It was Lin Qian who helped Huan'er move Nanny Yu's body out of the palace for burial. Otherwise, Nanny Yu's fate would have been to be burned to ashes and scattered in the dry well in the palace.
In Huan'er's heart, those old maids and eunuchs were all her elders. Now that Huan'er wanted to take Xu Jingcheng to meet them, Lin Qian was not surprised at all.
Lin Qian agreed to the two of them and took them directly into the palace, just in time to check the pulse of Shen Junqi and her future son-in-law.
After bringing the two disciples into the palace, Lin Qian did not follow. After she took their pulses, the three of them left the palace together.
However, looking at their happy expressions and the large bag of various small items in their purses, Lin Qian knew that both parties should be quite satisfied with this meeting between the elders.
Lin Qian was now the only elder relative of the two, so she had to be busy with the wedding preparations. As for planning someone else's wedding, it was her first time getting into a bridal sedan chair. Fortunately, Lin Qian had external help. Zhao Xiu and Zhang Yufang were both free and could come and help.
At the age of eight, Xu Jingcheng followed Xu Chengde and became Lin Qian's disciple. Later, when the master and disciple met again, Lin Qian always kept him by her side.
Although Huan'er is also Lin Qian's apprentice, she was taught by Xu Jingcheng himself.
On the day of their wedding, Lin Qian was so happy when she saw the young couple kowtowing to her that she drank a few more glasses and even got drunk.
