Since he had been called out so directly by Li Lingyun, Houzi felt embarrassed not to give him anything. He headed to his room, rummaged through a few boxes, and finally took out a pair of jade bracelets.
Though jade wasn't particularly expensive, this pair was made of imperial jade. The color was vivid and translucent, and the craftsmanship was exquisite.
Returning to the table, he placed the box in front of Li Lingyun and said, "Boss Ling, I apologize for the late wedding gift. This gift is not expensive but I think this gift would suit your wife."
Li Lingyun opened the box and saw the beautiful bracelets. He imagined his wife wearing them, her slender, smooth, white wrists adorned with the smooth jade. It would definitely look so beautiful.
Satisfied, he pocketed the box and said, "When you get married, I will slaughter two pigs for your wedding banquet."
Houzi, pleased by the generous promise, grinned as he replied, "Then I won't hold back when the time comes."
