The eighth day of the lunar month is the Laba Festival, and there are several pots of Laba porridge boiled in the palace, and everyone has a bowl. Lin Qingyun's diet has been good since she was pregnant, but later she was worried that she would eat too much and the fetus would be too big to give birth, so she slowly controlled her diet, but the chef in the house was worthy of being carefully selected and invited by Tu Yan.

That night, she suddenly complained of a stomachache.

Tu Yan didn't sleep in a separate bed with her, and got up as soon as he heard the movement. The candle in the room was always on, but seeing that her face was covered with sweat, it was obvious that she couldn't hold back and screamed. Tu Yan was distressed and angry, and now he couldn't care about it, so he hurriedly shouted outside, got dressed again, and didn't forget to comfort her.

"You'an, you accompany me." Lin Qingyun tugged at his hand and refused to let go. Although she has never come out, in ancient times, women gave birth with half a foot into the ghost gate, and there were not a few people who had dystocia and postpartum hemorrhage, and she was always afraid in her heart.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay. Didn't the Imperial Doctor say that you are all right? Mama Du also said, your arms are very good, and your belly is not very big, so it will be very smooth to be born. Tu Yan only took good words to appease her.

Lin Qingyun glared at him: "How do you know about good life?" It's not you, you don't have back pain when you stand and talk! ”

In the first period of pregnancy, she also often lost her temper, and later learned to control zhì. When it was time to give birth, the temper came up again under fear and fear.

Tu Yan has always been good-tempered, and only coaxed her softly.

The egret Mama Li and the others soon came in, but Mama Li had never given birth to her, and she didn't understand any of this, so she had to rely on the two stable women sent by the queen. The two Wen Po are in charge of the birth of the palace concubine, one surnamed Du and the other surnamed Liu, both of whom are members of the queen.

"Lord Wang, please stay away." In ancient times, women gave birth to men who could not be present, not to mention that the delivery room was regarded as a big murderer, and men did not approach it.

Tu Yan was worried about Lin Qingyun, but Lin Qingyun's temper was somewhat restrained because of outsiders, and he knew that he couldn't be willful, so he persuaded him to go out: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

"Call me if there's something." How can Tu Yan really rest assured. When she came out, she couldn't sit still at all, walking back and forth, worrying about the fetus for a while, and she was full of terrible results.

Lin Qingyun didn't care about him, and only listened to Mama Du's orders at this time.

Mama Du touched her belly, asked a few words, lifted the quilt to inspect it, and said, "Don't be afraid, don't panic, princess, it's still early." It's just labor pains, the princess is the first child, and the time spent is only afraid of a longer time, but you can eat something, and then get out of bed and walk around, so that it is better to give birth. ”

Although he was reluctant to move at all, he had to endure it now.

The egret brought the soft white rice porridge, ate a bowl of pickled side dishes, and walked back and forth in the bedroom a few times with the support of Mama Li and others. It was in the moon, and there was a smoke cage in the house, so I was afraid that she would catch a cold, so I ordered two more, and she was wearing thin, but it didn't take long for her to sweat again. At this time, you don't have to go back and forth to change clothes, take a break, and then continue walking.

"How's the princess? Is this going to be good? There was a futile questioning voice from outside.

Lin Qingyun replied with a smile: "What is the prince anxious about, I haven't given birth yet." ”

"Why haven't you given birth yet?" Tu Yan was in a hurry.

Lin Qingyun didn't care about him anymore and asked the egret: "What time is it?" ”

"It's almost ugly."

"It's the middle of the night." Lin Qingyun estimated that the fetus would be born on the ninth day of the new year. Just as she was about to get up and continue to walk in circles, her stomach jerked and sank again, and her face changed from pain.

"Quick, help the princess to lie on the bed, she's about to give birth." Mama Du hurriedly commanded. Another Mama Liu arranged for the maids to prepare hot water, scissors and other things, and they were all busy, but they were orderly.

Tu Yan was in a panic when he suddenly heard a scream from inside, and he was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair. Knowing that this is the beginning of life, my heart is beating a lot faster than usual.

Lin Qingyun's baby is staring at many people, and once it is launched, there will be news to report it immediately. First the news was sent to the palace. Although the palace gate is closed at night, the emperor and queen have made a decree earlier, and it happens that it is a festival today, and the emperor stays in Fengyi Palace. The queen is looking forward to having a grandson, and the emperor is looking forward to having a grandson, even more nervous and urgent than when he had a son-in-law.

Another person reported to the Lin Mansion that Daiyu was pregnant, and Lin Qingyun specially instructed her to wait until she was born.

Daiyu's fetus is not ordinary, now it has just turned five months, and the reaction is very great, and it was diagnosed half a month ago, Daiyu is pregnant with twins. Lin Qingyun was happy and worried at the same time, and later felt more comforted when she saw Jin Lianzi. Now Daiyu's body is strong, although the morning sickness reaction is greater, but the doctor said that the fetus is very healthy, and Daiyu herself can eat and sleep, even if there is a case during childbirth, she will guard it herself, and the golden lotus seed will always be able to save her life.

Earlier, Mama Du said that Lin Qingyun's fetal position is positive, the fetus is not very big, and the body is good.

From the time of ugliness to the time when she was approaching, she only felt that her body was losing quickly, and she followed Mama Du's instructions, and did not dare to keep shouting, so she saved up her strength and worked hard. Naturally, it hurts a lot during childbirth, but at this time nothing matters, there is only one idea, which is to give birth to the child as much as possible, not to mention that the pain is so hard that it is numb.

"Princess, if you exert your strength again, you will come out."

Lin Qingyun saved up a lot of strength and gritted his teeth.

"It's out! It's out! It's a little son! Mama Du immediately wiped the amniotic fluid on the child's body quickly, patted her buttocks upside down, stimulated the child to open her mouth and cry, and spit out a little residual mucus in her mouth, so that she quickly cleaned it in the warm water wooden basin that had been prepared long ago, and wrapped it in red swaddling clothes again.

Mama Liu had already taken over, cleaned up for Lin Qingyun, and said, "The princess was born smoothly and did not bleed. After giving birth to the first child, the spirit is still so good, and the slave is still seeing her for the first time. ”

In fact, Lin Qingyun was also very tired, but she just wanted to see the child.

The maids cleaned up the bed, but the weather was cold, and they didn't dare to open the window to breathe, and there was a smell of blood wafting in the room. Mama Du and the others had experience, so they took out a packet of specially blended incense pieces and added them to the smoker cage, burning a faint cold incense, which suppressed the bloody gas for a few points.

"Princess, look, the little prince is white and fat, seven pounds and six taels. Looking at these eyebrows, it looks a bit like a prince. "Mama Li is old, she likes children very much, and she was born with her own eyes, and she is her own little master, how do you really see how to love.

Lin Qingyun looked at Mama Li's hand, and only felt that her heart was soft.

At this time, Tu Yan had already heard the news outside, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to do for a while, but he was reminded by Father-in-law Le, so he hurriedly ordered someone to go to the palace to report the good news, and he didn't care about any taboos in the delivery room, and waited for the stable girls to withdraw and go in.

Mama Li and the others often serve, knowing that the princess and princess have a good relationship, they retreated with a smile.

Tu Yan looked at his son who was sleeping obediently in swaddling clothes, and he didn't dare to reach out and touch it, for fear of scaring him. Look at Lin Qingyun again, although the egret has cleaned up for her, she has just given birth and has to be confined, and she can't take a bath for a month, and a simple scrub can't remove the sweat in her hair. Although she doesn't look good, Tu Yan is happy to see her like this, peaceful, able to talk and laugh.

"Wei Qing has worked hard." Tu Yan smiled and said, "He was born at a good time, just at dawn." ”

When the news reached the palace, the emperor stroked his palms and laughed, and the queen Yixi directly ordered Wenxin and others to make some good things and send them to Lin Qingyun. The emperor asked someone to lay paper and grind, and he wanted to give a name to the newborn grandson of the emperor.

The queen hurriedly stopped him: "The emperor is happy that the concubines all know that the child has just been born, and the emperor is majestic, and I am afraid that his child family will not be able to stand it." ”

It's not that the queen doesn't want the emperor's grandson to be valued by the emperor's blue eyes, but she is afraid that she will pay too much attention to this heat, but it will make it difficult for the little people to grow up. Since she has gone through the futile incident, she can move everything else, but the safety of her children and grandchildren is the most important.

"That's it, let the seventh go and get it. When the child is older, I will give him words. The emperor understood the empress's worries, and after thinking about it, he could only give up.

Aunt Wenxin personally led people out of the palace with things and went to Prince Chun's mansion, and the sky was just brightening at this time.

It had just snowed a few days ago, and the roof on the ground was covered with a layer of snow, and the eastern sky was rising with golden light, and the auspicious clouds were spreading with golden light, and the whole earth was bathed in a warm and dazzling light, which made people warm and full of hope. Wenxin felt that this intention was really good, and she couldn't complain that the emperor was excited to name Xiao Shizi. I heard that the prince had already flipped through the book and looked up the name of the dictionary, but I was afraid that he would have set a name for the little prince earlier, and after a while, he asked and returned to the queen's mother, and the mother must be even happier.

When the sedan chair with the heart arrived at the gate of the palace, it was found that the front of the palace was very lively, and the sedan chairs of all colors stopped at one place, and most of the powerful people in Beijing had arrived. You don't have to ask, you must have heard that Prince Chun had a son-in-law, and he came to congratulate him.

The tattoo heart came on behalf of the emperor and queen, and was immediately seen by the sharp-eyed chief historian and hurriedly welcomed in.

At this time, Tu Yan was meeting guests outside, and the people who came were a few royal brothers, and there were several old clans who were loyal to the prince, so it was not good to see them. Lin Qingyun is much easier to do there, those ladies are all entertained by Mama Li, Egret Hongyan and others, and the ladies of all families know that the princess is not good at seeing guests now, and it is a gift to come over, even Xiao Shizi does not dare to say anything to see her. The child is very delicate when he is born, and in this kind of weather, no one can afford to miss it.

The wives of each family will not be bored with themselves, and they have done their best, and they have taken their leave.

Aunt Wenxin was led into the Tengluo Courtyard, and Mama Zheng and Mama Jiang all came out of Fengyi Palace, so they were naturally very familiar with Wenxin. The two greeted each other and greeted each other, and Mama Zheng said with a smile on her face: "It's not that I picked out the nice ones, but I really saw so many princes and princesses in the palace, and none of them were white and tender when they were born." Aunt Wenxin should really take a good look, go back and tell the queen mother, Xiao Shizi is very strong, he woke up and ate milk once, and now he is sleeping soundly. ”

The more he listened, the more itchy he became, and when he entered the door, he first took off his cloak outside, washed his hands with the hot water brought by the maid, and warmed his body a little to get rid of the cold, and then opened the curtain and entered the inner room. As soon as I entered, I saw someone inside, and when I saw that the eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar, I knew that they were sisters, and I looked at the age and the princess as if they were close, and the words were intimate, so I guessed that they were good sisters before leaving the cabinet. These two people, one has combed the woman's hairstyle, and the other is still dressed as a girl, but this girl has seen the tattoo, which is the daughter-in-law of the eldest princess and the girl of the Zhuang family, Zhuang Shixiang.

Zhuang Shixiang naturally recognized it, and whispered to Zhuang Shiqing on the side, and the two of them saluted together. As the saying goes, there are seven officials in front of the prime minister, not to mention the first person next to the queen.

Tattoo Xin can't take care of the two girls of the dealer at this time, Lin Qingyun has a good complexion, and can laugh with people, so he walked to the small bed on the side to see Xiao Shizi.

Lin Qingyun is not an ancient person in the end, although she forcibly changed the rules because of her bad identity, but the child's first mouthful of milk was still fed by her. She heard that the first few days of colostrum are the best, anyway, she is in confinement right now, and the child has to stay by her side, but it is okay to feed it for a few days, just don't say anything about it.

The child's cot had been prepared a long time ago, and she had discussed it with Tu Yan. At that time, Tu Yan's tone was quite pantothenic: "It's a month, and he has to move out when the New Year begins, you can't forget your son and his father when you have a son." ”

This scoundrel's tone is not at all like that of a gentle person on weekdays, and she is often asked to take it out and make fun of her.

Wenxin rubbed his hands, and then carefully picked up the little Shizi with the little quilt, the little guy still slept soundly, and the little mouth moved, and it was very happy to watch. The tattoo didn't hold it for too long, and carefully put it back, and looked at it again and again, and then walked to the side of the bed to look at Lin Qingyun carefully, and relayed the words of the queen's mother.

Lin Qingyun couldn't get out of bed, so she could only straighten up and listen respectfully.

After Wenxin finished speaking, he hurriedly helped her lie down again: "The princess has to pay attention, women can't be careless in confinement, and many problems are the root of the confinement." ”

"Thank you aunt for instructing, I remember it, and there are several grandmothers and maids around me who are watching, and they are very careful and proper. My aunt just don't worry about it after returning to her mother, I'm fine, Xiao Shizi is good, I can eat and sleep, and the little Qin Imperial Doctor has been staying in the house for the first few days. Lin Qingyun said that her son's eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but smile.

Wenxin looked at her, but felt that she had given birth to a child, but it added more charm, and she smiled when she thought of her prince's temperament. "I heard that Xiao Shizi has a name, so I asked clearly, and I will tell the queen mother when I go back."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingyun couldn't help laughing: "Auntie also heard about it?" I said that he was anxious, and when he was first diagnosed and didn't know the men and women, he hurriedly went to turn the book, but he didn't settle down after a few months. He had just been born today, and when he knew the time of the child's birth, he immediately had a name. Because he was born in Mao, when the dawn broke, he took the word 'Chen'. I saw that the morning sun was full of sun, and it was an excellent weather, so I gave him a nickname, 'Chuyang'. ”

After a careful look at the tattoo, he said again and again: "It's all good names." ”

As he was talking, the maid outside reported: "Princess Yongjia has arrived." ”

"Princess Celestia is here too." Wenxin hurriedly got up to salute, and joked again: "The county lord is now a big girl, and next year she will talk about people, but you can't run around crazy anymore." ”

"Auntie is making fun of people again!" An Le is fifteen years old, born slim, the eldest princess regards it as a treasure, and even the queen attaches great importance to it. In order to choose a family affair for An Le, the mother and daughter took great pains to choose a candidate after a few years.

The tattoo didn't stay long, and the queen was still waiting for Xin'er in the palace.

When he returned to the palace, Wenxin talked about today's events in detail, focusing on the newborn little son, a little bit of description, like talking about fairy children. The queen loves to listen to this, and while she is happy that her grandson is strong and pink, she regrets that she can't see it in person. The child's full moon is in the first month, when the palace is busy, the New Year's Festival in the palace will not end until the end of the first month, and the weather is still cold in the first month, and he is reluctant to let his grandson eat the cold wind and go out to suffer.

Prince Chun's mansion was lively for a day, and it was finally quiet.

The congratulatory gifts sent by each family, some of which are classified into the public treasury, have their own external account room cooking, and some are sent to Lin Qingyun or Xiao Shizi, all of which are registered and stored by the egret. The egret is going to be released in the new year, and now it is all with acacia to get started with all kinds of errands, although acacia is not as capable as the egret Lisuo, in the end it gradually practiced a few points.

Lin Qingyun was in bed all day long, lying on his body with pain, and the Bailing thrush was beating his legs and rubbing his shoulders one by one, and his mouth was still chattering. Mama Li saw that she was rubbing her sideburns, so she made a look to ask Bai Ling not to say anything, and asked her what she thought?

"Tired and flustered, no energy." Lin Qingyun waved his hand to make Bailing Thrush retreat, and said with a smile with Mama Li: "The sisters who used to be good friends are now married and pregnant, and they will get together in two or three years, hey, it's lively." ”

Mama Li also smiled: "Yes." The sisters who were good friends with the princess at the beginning, except for the three girls of the Zhuang family, who married early, have now given birth to a daughter, and the next is the little son in our house. After two years, there will be more, and the three girls of the Zhuang family now have a body again, the younger sister of the princess, the second girl of the Jia family who married, these are all next year, and then down, I am afraid that it will be the four girls of the Zhuang family. The fourth girl has just been married for less than two months, and the happy event is still to come, and the fifth girl of the Zhuang family will marry Lu Gongzi next year......"

Before he finished speaking, he listened to Lidong say outside: "Princess, the third girl of the Jia family and the eldest girl of the Xue family are here." ”

Lin Qingjun was surprised.

No one from the Jia family came today, but the things of Hexi were delivered. Because Lin Qingyun is the righteous daughter of the Lin family, she has a little relationship with Rongguo Mansion, and it is reasonable to give a congratulatory gift. In addition, Jia Lian and his wife and Jia's mother prepared gifts for Lin Qingyun and Xiao Shizi separately, and everything was collected by Egret Acacia.

The only people in the Jia family who can go out to do errands are Jia Lian and his wife, Jia Lian is a foreign man, so it is naturally not good to come to the inner house, and Wang Xifeng naturally can't come with a big belly. In that house, Mrs. Xing couldn't take it, Mrs. Wang would never come to the door, how could no one go out with the girl's house?

"What are you ......" Lin Qingyun asked, and also caught a glimpse of Xue Baochai followed by a girl with a raw face. The girl was about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a red cloak, rare and beautiful, and her partial eyes were pure and flawless, very eye-catching and endearing.

Lin Qingyun's heart moved, and she thought of someone.

This person heard Tanchun say: "It was the second brother Lian who sent us here, the princess was overjoyed to give birth to a child, how could she not come to congratulate." ”

I heard Xue Baochai say again: "Before, the princess heard that I had a sister who also lived in Rongguo Mansion, so she said that she wanted to meet her. It's a coincidence that I brought her with me. My sister's name is Baoqin, two years younger than Sister Lin, and she has been given to the Mei Hanlin family in Duzhong since she was a child. was originally going to get married, but it was released outside Mei's house. ”

Lin Qingyun glanced at Xue Baochai when she heard this, according to Xue Baochai's personality, how could she introduce her cousin like this for the first time. Isn't it exposed to your face?

Xue Baoqin was also very surprised, glanced at Xue Baochai, his face was red, then white, and he lowered his head and said nothing.

When he caught a glimpse of the bitterness in Xue Baochai's eyes, Lin Qingjun suddenly understood his intentions. I'm afraid that her own youth is wasted, the years have passed, and she sees that Baoqin was deliberately delayed by the Mei family, and she is afraid that she will be in the same dilemma as her in the future, so she hopes to get Lin Qingyun's help.

When they met for the first time, Lin Qingyun couldn't say anything else, so she changed the topic and mentioned the poems made by Baoqin. Gradually, it can be said, and she is really a lively and enthusiastic girl, somewhat similar to An Le, but much smarter than An Le.

Before leaving, Tanchun said: "Sister Yun didn't come today, the princess forgive me." She was engaged to the son of the Wei family, although she didn't go through the door, but General Wei died in battle, and the Shi family had an accident again, but she couldn't go out. ”

After the end of the war along the West Sea, several princes' mansions in Beijing were implicated, the lightest was to seize the title, several families were copied, and the family servants were sold on the street, and the principals were either beheaded or exiled, and some were imprisoned. This time, the two marquis of the Shi family were robbed of their homes together, and they felt that they were the most eye-catching ones. To this day, there are still people who can remember the scenery of the historians back then, who would have expected that it would disappear in just twenty or thirty years.

The Jia family was also frightened and inquired about the Shi family's crimes. It is said that the two historians were involved in the case of the army, and there was a large deficit, the emperor just ordered to seize the title, raid the family into the official, the two marquis were exiled, and the family members still left a set of small mansions to settle down.

Wang Xifeng didn't dare to let Jia's mother know, so she only called Shi Xiangyun to tell her.

Shi Xiangyun was stunned all of a sudden.

Three years ago, her uncle was released, and the whole family left, leaving her alone in Beijing. Although she also likes to live in Jia's house, in the end, her uncle and aunt are her family, so how can she have no idea in her heart if she abandons her like this? Originally, the Shi family was allowed to return to Beijing to report on her work in November, and she was still counting the days and waiting for the Shi family to send someone to pick it up, how did she know that such a big thing happened to the Shi family.

Shi Xiangyun immediately took a car to the current residence of the Shi family's aunt, and the girls inevitably cried when they saw it, but a few days later, Shi Xiangyun returned to Jia's house.

Now the Shi family is having a hard time, the girls have no money, Shi Xiangyun's two cousins are not married, and the family has undergone great changes, and the Shi family's aunt is not very good. Xiangyun has been disobedient to her parents since she was a child, even if she is not as close to the Jia family as her aunt in her heart, but when her aunt blames her for her bad life, and the Wei family restricts the two uncles, she only feels cold all over, and lets her aunt send her back to the Jia family.
