67.Chapter 67
Unconsciously, the New Year is approaching, and it is snowing in the capital.
When Shen Ning got up one morning, he felt the coolness all over his body, although his body was covered with a thick quilt, and the cover was tight, but the exposed skin could still feel the coolness that was different from usual.
Especially in Tang Yanxiu's absence.
Getting up from the bed, Shen Ning felt that his movements were a little difficult, and his stomach was like kicking a big watermelon, but he couldn't touch it.
"Zhengjun, are you awake?" I don't know if I heard the movement, but someone had already pushed open the door and walked in, still holding a basin with hot water in his hand.
"It's snowing today?" Shen Ning saw the white expanse outside when he opened the door, and the snowflakes that had fallen on the other party's shoulders that had not yet melted.
"Yes, it rained all night last night!" The subordinate put down the basin and towel and waited for Shen Ning to get dressed, even if he was unable to move, Shen Ning was not used to letting others help him get dressed.
"Are you adults out?" Shen Ning put on the last piece of clothing and walked over to wash his face.
"Your Excellency has returned, and is in the study."
"Hmm." Shen Ning nodded, "Remember to ask people to put more charcoal in the study and burn some hot tea." After thinking about it for a while, Shen Ning felt that it was a little worse again, so he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, got some spiritual spring water, and asked them to take it to make tea for Tang Yanxiu.
For the sake of how busy he has been lately......
And Tang Yanxiu drank hot tea that tasted better and more fragrant than usual, and smiled contentedly.
December 30 is the end of the year.
Early in the morning, the Prime Minister's Mansion and even the entire capital were busy, and began to put up lanterns and prepare all kinds of things needed for the New Year.
The Prime Minister's Mansion had already been swept inside and out, and the snow in front of the door had also been swept away, Shen Ning walked to the study after breakfast, and found that Tang Yanxiu was not busy with any national affairs when he stayed in the study, and it seemed that he was practicing calligraphy?
"Are you practicing calligraphy?" Shen Ning looked at the pieces of paper on the table, and wrote a lot.
Tang Yan didn't change his face, continued to finish writing a word, and then showed it to Shen Ning.
"Aning, what do you think of this word?"
"Ze? You've written it all pretty well. Shen Ning looked confused, not knowing why Tang Yanxiu asked him this question.
A calligrapher asked a semi-literate man who still had many unrecognizable words if his handwriting was good? Isn't that pure nonsense?
Shen Ning's answer made Tang Yanxiu stunned for a moment before putting down the paper in his hand.
"It's a name for the child." Tang Yanxiu glanced at Shen Ning helplessly, according to Shen Ning, the soon-to-be-born child in his belly was estimated to be called a little bun when he touched it.
"You said his name is Tang Ze?" Shen Ning pointed to his stomach, and it took a long time to understand that Tang Yanxiu was choosing a name.
He remembered his original name, as if it had been given by his grandfather.
"Tang Ze is not bad." Shen Ning leaned over and looked at the words written on the table, "This, Yu can also be." ”
After the two discussed the name of the child in the belly, the whole morning passed.
In the end, it was decided that if it was a master, it would be called Tang Ze, and if it was a brother, it would be called Tang Yu. In fact, Shen Ning first thought of Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuji, and then thought that the goods were his son, so he decisively gave up the name.
"That's right." Walking out of the study, Shen Ning suddenly remembered something, "You didn't go to the morning court today?" ”
"Well, the emperor is sympathetic to his subordinates and has spared a day of early court." Tang Yanxiu's face did not change, but this sentence was going to be heard by other ministers, and it was estimated that he would have to give him a roll of his eyes collectively.
As long as you avoid the early dynasty, we all stared at the wind and snow to go to the early dynasty, and we were scolded by the emperor.
In fact, Tang Yanxiu didn't want to go to the early court today, so he handed over an excerpt and said that he was sick and couldn't go to the court, plus he was impatient because of the imperial examination yesterday, so he simply stayed at home to accompany his husband for the New Year.
"I see." Shen Ning nodded, it seems that he had misunderstood this emperor before, but in fact, he is still good?
After lunch, there was still a long time before the evening, Shen Ning was idle, so he took Tang Yanxiu out to walk on the street.
A brother with a big belly and a personable man, the two of them walked on the street, and they were wearing high-quality fabrics, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
In order to keep warm, Shen Ning wore a lot of three layers and three layers outside, Tang Yanxiu was still not at ease, and put a cloak on him, fluffy, Shen Ning was particularly suspicious that he was wrapped into a ball.
However, it is also good to wear a little more, and when you go outside, you won't feel cold.
The street was bustling, the two looked around, and Shen Ning suddenly found something, and his eyes lit up.
"Look at this." Shen Ning pulled Tang Yanxiu to a small stall, on which there were many porcelain dolls, including children and some small animals, which looked particularly cute.
"Is this cute?" Shen Ning picked up a pair of dolls, the doll was a child's face, with baby fat, eyes closed, looking like they were sleeping, especially cute.
The more Shen Ning looked at it, the more he liked it, and a string of bubbles came out of his heart, and before he could say anything, someone had already paid.
"Boss, we want this." Tang Yanxiu also likes these two dolls, thinking that he will also have such a little doll, grow up slowly, and then call himself Daddy, his heart is soft.
"Are you going to buy this?" The boss was a kind-looking old uncle, he glanced at the two of them, and smiled when he saw Shen Ning's belly with a prominent name.
"This doll is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, the two of them buy it back, maybe the husband will also give birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses."
The stall owner took the money, and then said, Shen Ning held a pair of dolls and thanked Tang Yanxiu together.
After that, the two went together to buy some food, rice cakes or something, and Shen Ning tasted everything he had never seen or eaten, but in the end, Tang Yanxiu said that he would not let Shen Ning eat any more, for fear that he would be uncomfortable when he ate too much.
Shen Ning had to lick his lips regretfully, thinking about waiting for the next time to eat.
The two went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in advance, after all, today's New Year, although the Prime Minister's Mansion said that there were no major things to arrange, and other things were also done by Uncle Nan and other subordinates, but the master was not there, and there was no such atmosphere after all.
And in the evening, Shen Ning decided to eat hot pot and dumplings in the house.
The ingredients of the hot pot are made by Shen Ning himself, some of the people in the house went home to visit relatives for the New Year, and most of the rest were homeless people, those who went home for the New Year, Shen Ning gave them one or two silver as a reward, and the rest, in addition to one or two silver, each person also had an additional New Year's gift, plus a New Year's meal.
At the dining table, Shen Ning and Tang Yanxiu sat opposite each other, because there were only two of them, and they were too lazy to get those forms, so only a small table was placed, and the two of them ate on the kang.
"Today's New Year, drink a little wine." Shen Ning poured Tang Yanxiu a glass of wine, and only poured a glass of water himself.
In fact, he also wants to drink, but he doesn't have to think about it, he definitely won't let him drink.
"Aning, Happy New Year."
"It's not the New Year yet." The hot pot was already hot, Shen Ning put the vegetables in it and scalded it, and put it in Tang Yanxiu's bowl when it was hot.
"So, let's celebrate the New Year together in the future, okay?"
"Do you still want to have sex with someone else?"
The house is hot, the outside is also lively, the sound of firecrackers sounds, and the new year is coming.
Maybe because he didn't come out of the first year of his life, Xiao Baozi was not satisfied, and when the spring of the next year begins, it is not yet February, and he is in a hurry to come out.
Shen Ning's stomach had been aching for half an hour.
At this time, he was lying on the bed, extremely regretful, why did he have a brain twitch in the first place and agree to have a child?
Damn!
Another sharp pain came, Shen Ning's head was covered with sweat, and he suddenly remembered his mother.
If he could see his mother, he would definitely have to thank her, it was not easy to give birth to himself.
Inside and out, they were busy, and Tang Yanxiu also stiffened his face and stood outside helplessly.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, Zhengjun will definitely be fine." On the side, Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who was originally going to discuss things with Tang Yanxiu, looked at Tang Yanxiu's appearance and comforted, but he didn't expect that the prime minister, who had always been calm and calm, would be like this when he learned that his husband had given birth to a child.
However, he touched his chin, and when he learned that his husband had a child, his reaction seemed to be similar, after all, he was a young man.
Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who was hit by Tang Yanxiu in the court, finally found his advantage in age at this time, and redeemed his injured little heart, but Tang Yanxiu was really blank in his mind and didn't know what to do at all.
The midwife has already entered, and the doctor has also come, and everything to be prepared is ready, but Tang Yanxiu just can't rest assured.
It's really Shen Ning who screamed too miserably.
"Doctor." Tang Yanxiu couldn't help but turn around, the old doctor was standing aside, and the little boy on the side was carrying the medicine box, looking calm.
"It's okay, don't be impatient, Prime Minister."
In this way, in a period of torment, the cry of the child finally came from the house, the husband came out to report the good news, the father and son were safe, Tang Yanxiu exhaled, put it to heart, and prepared to go in to see Shen Ning.
Inside the house, everyone was already planning to pack up their things, but Shen Ning suddenly stopped them.
"You wait, like, there's something in my stomach."
Next, there was another period of busyness, and sure enough, Shen Ning had another one in his belly, and the midwife wrapped them in a small quilt, just a man and a brother.
The dragon and phoenix fetus, the prime minister and the righteous monarch, are really blessed people!
