When Third Sister You was sleeping soundly, she suddenly heard a commotion outside, and she woke up from her dream. He sat up straight, opened the bed tent and asked, "What's going on outside, why is it so noisy?" ”

Zhen'er, who was on night duty outside, also woke up early, got up busily, lit the lamp and hung the curtain, and took the clothes on the smoker over to put them on for the third sister You, and then replied: "Mrs. started at night." The maid who was on duty at night in the main courtyard moved her wife to the delivery room, and sent the midwife in to deliver the baby, and ordered someone to boil water and prepare things, and everyone who made a noise got up.

When the third sister You heard this, she also knew that the day of Chen's childbirth was in the past few days, so she got up and dressed, pushed the door and went out of the room, and happened to meet the eldest girl and the second sister who also pushed the door when she heard the movement outside, and the three of them just nodded to each other, no one had the heart to speak, and they just ran all the way to the main courtyard.

But seeing that the courtyard was already brightly lit and full of people, the maids and women used large copper basins to hold hot water and came and went in an orderly manner. Old Lady You, You Ziyu and several aunts and concubines of the You family were all guarding on the platform.

Probably because of the desolation and childlessness for many years, Mrs. You and You Ziyu were quite nervous about Chen's birth. At that time, when he heard that Chen's launch, he was so busy that he got up in his clothes, and he didn't groom up, so he casually wore a big sweater and rushed over. This time, regardless of the hard wind at night in the winter, he was guarding outside the delivery room and was in a hurry. Mrs. You folded her hands and turned her back to the sky, praying to God and worshiping Buddha, only asking the Chen family to give birth to a boy to extend the incense for the You family. You Ziyu rubbed his hands and crossed his shoulders back and forth, and asked upset from time to time, "Why is there no movement in it"?

When Aunt Lan on the side saw it, she had to say a few words of comfort softly. Because of the smile: "Women give birth to children like this, the wife has always been strong, not to mention that there are doctors and grandmothers in the palace from time to time to diagnose and maintain the pulse, and the mother and child will be safe." ”

When You Ziyu heard this, she nodded indiscriminately, and was just about to say something, when she saw the three sisters wearing big hats and loose sideburns. You Ziyu swallowed what she wanted to say to Aunt Lan, and only asked the three sisters, "Why did you come here?" ”

When the eldest girl heard this, she replied with a low eyebrow: "I heard that my mother has launched, we are not at ease, and we want to come and take a look." ”

When You Ziyu heard this, he nodded again. When she was about to say something, she only opened her mouth, and saw Chunlan, who was waiting in the delivery room, lift the curtain and come out, and only asked the little girl for the food that had been prepared in the kitchen. The little girl agreed, You Ziyu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Chunlan's sleeve, and asked in her mouth, "How is your wife, why is there no movement at all?" ”

When Chunlan heard this, she hurriedly said, "Mrs. is very good, but she is hungry this time, so she ordered us to send food in." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the little girl who had just gone hurriedly holding a bowl of ginseng □□ japonica rice porridge. Seeing this, Chunlan hurriedly stepped forward to take the japonica rice porridge and lift the curtain into the house.

When You Ziyu saw this, he was in a hurry and turned around. I didn't dare to enter the delivery room because of the rules and customs, so I only lay on the window and peeked at the lights and shadows inside, but I couldn't see the eyebrows when I saw the shadows inside, and I didn't feel more and more anxious.

It had passed the third watch that day, the wind was getting harder and harder, the night was getting colder and colder, the wind was chilling, the muscles were cracked, the wind through the hall was blowing cold, and several aunts had already been unable to stand it and sneezed several times one after another. I complained again and again, but I only dared to say to Mrs. You: "This will be cold in the middle of the night, if the wind is cold for a while, it will not be easy to get along with the New Year." The old lady is too old to stand the cold wind, so why not go into the house and sit down and eat a cup of hot tea to warm up? ”

Mrs. You is full of thoughts about her precious grandson, how can this son have the heart to avoid the wind and cold, hearing this, she only thinks that a few aunts are lazy and greedy, and she is full of unhappiness. Just about to open his mouth to reprimand, he heard Third Sister You laugh on the side: "What these aunts said is very true. The old lady is old and can be well maintained. If there is an accidental wind and cold because of this, how can the mother and younger brother be happy? Let's go inside and have a cup of tea to warm up. It's good to recuperate, and take care of my younger brother in the future, isn't it? ”

Old Mrs. You listened to Third Sister You's younger brother's cry, and she smiled with joy. Stretched out his hand and patted Third Sister You'er's little hand, and said in his mouth: "No wonder your mother hurts you so much, or you can speak." Your mother will be able to give you a little brother this time. At that time, our You family will have a queen......"

When Third Sister You heard this, she had to persuade Old Lady You a few more words, and then glanced at the eldest girl standing on the side. The eldest girl was relieved, and stepped forward to help Mrs. You into the main hall of the inner courtyard. and the little girl who was waiting in the room came with the boiling tea.

Third Sister You followed everyone for most of the day, and she was already a little hungry in her belly. She expected that most of the others would do the same, so she instructed her subordinates to go to the kitchen to spread the word and prepare some porridge and side dishes for supper. He also ordered someone to call You Ziyu in to eat tea to warm up, and coaxed Mrs. You to eat most of the bowl.

She didn't want Old Lady You to toss around with a symptom on this day, and then she would be used as a handle by the You family.

For a while, there was a supper, and everyone had to wait in the hall. I don't know when the snow fell in the sky, and the snow was boiling and rubbing. Wrapped indiscriminately by the night wind, it drilled into the mouth of the leader of the man's clothes.

Mrs. You and You Ziyu wanted to go out several times, but they were persuaded by Third Sister You. She herself couldn't sit still, so she only relied on Su Xi's strong body and guarded outside the delivery room to sentry news. Because it was cold, he ordered his mother-in-law to cage four braziers at his feet. The fire is burning, even if the cold wind blows the bones, you can't feel anything.

I don't know how early or late it was, but when I saw the oriental fish in the daytime, I suddenly heard a faint cry of a baby in the delivery room. Third Sister You was smart, hurriedly rushed to the outside of the delivery room, and asked in a loud voice, "Mom gave birth?" ”

It's just that I didn't pay attention to my feet during the action, and accidentally kicked over a brazier. I only heard the sound of "open-mindedness", the copper basin turned over, and the red charcoal blocks that burned burst out, and the northwest wind blew suddenly, and the sparks splashed wildly, running high, and frightened everyone.

When I came back to my senses, I heard the mother in charge of delivering the baby in the delivery room laughing loudly: "My wife gave birth to a young master, who weighs six pounds and six taels." ”

At that time, You Ziyu happened to help Mrs. You out, and when she heard this, she was overjoyed. The maids and ladies who were waiting in the courtyard also gathered around and came forward to congratulate and say goodbye. Some people even made fun of flattering and courteously took the matter of Fang Cai You and the third sister kicked over the brazier when she was excited: "The third girl just kicked over the brazier, and the fire is so high, the midwife said that the wife gave birth to a brother, and he weighed six catties and six taels." It can be seen that our brother was born with blessings. So just after the next life, our You Mansion has a good omen. ”

Old Lady You and You Ziyu were already smiling from ear to ear, where could they stand such flattery. Busy opening the mouth to appreciate the moon and enjoy the wine and food. Then he entered the room with a smile, first stood in front of the brazier to roast away the cold on his body, and then stepped forward to see his precious grandson.

At that time, the third sister You took advantage of the chaos of everyone to send someone back to Chen's house to report the good news. Then he turned around and entered the room, only to see Mrs. You standing on the ground holding the sleeping baby, and You Ziyu and several aunts in the family were standing by and watching. Third Sister You didn't go to join in the excitement, but only went into the inner room to see Chen after dissipating the cold in front of the brazier.

Chen tossed for a whole night, but he was still in good spirits at the moment. is holding a bowl of sugar steamed crispy Luo to eat. Next to her sat the eldest girl and the second sister, who were smiling and saying something flattering. Seeing Third Sister You coming in, Chen smiled at Third Sister and asked, "Have you been to see your brother?" ”

Third Sister You shook her head and said, "Not yet." The old lady didn't let go, and the old man and several aunts couldn't help but watch. I saw that there was a lot of water over there, so I came over to see my mother first? ”

After that, he asked with concern: "How does Mom feel, is there anything uncomfortable?" ”

Chen shook his head, and said with a smile: "I am not a new daughter-in-law who gave birth for the first time, I have given birth to your sister and you successively, and I have experience." It's just that I was hungry at that time, but after eating at this time, I feel much better. ”

While speaking, he suddenly heard the crying of the little baby outside, Chen's willow eyebrows were upside down, and he shouted: "Why is the child crying, come and bring me in." ”

When Mrs. You heard this, she hurriedly carried the baby into the inner room. You Ziyu and several aunts also hula squeezed in. The room, which was not very spacious, was crowded, and Chen was a little impatient, so he took the baby in his arms and instructed several aunts on the other: "You were tired of tossing and turning for most of the night last night. Presumably, they will all be tired at this time, so let's go back to sleep. ”

Chen's mental methods, all of the aunts have been taught. I also know Chen's temper. When the aunts heard this, they hurriedly opened their mouths and retreated one after another. Only Aunt Lan was reluctant to give up and glanced at You Ziyu affectionately. How could You Ziyu's heart be enveloped by her precious son, and she couldn't see anything else in her eyes except for Chen and her son.

Seeing this, Aunt Lan bowed down and retired in disgrace. Seeing this, Mrs. You hurriedly said to Chen: "I think my grandson is hungry, hurry up and call the nurse-"

Before he could finish a sentence, he heard Chen's categorical words: "What is the name of the nurse?" My own son, don't I know how to nurse myself? At the beginning, the two sisters were raised by me, so now they can be smart, caring and sensible. I'm going to feed this son myself. ”

When Mrs. You heard this, she was stunned. Hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade: "What do you mean by this?" People like us, how can there be a reason why their own nurses do not invite nurses. Wouldn't it be a joke to let outsiders see it? What's more—"

didn't finish a sentence, only to see Chen sneer, and told Chunlan to put down the bed tent to cover up, and he undressed and flirted with his clothes, feeding the child on one wall, and said with a smile: "The rules of other people's families are other people's families, and our Chen family has never had this rule." Since my mother raised my brother and me, our Chen family has never raised children with dummies. How the children of our Chen family are raised, I think the old lady and the old man have also heard of it. Could it be that I will raise my son by myself, and the old lady is still not at ease? ”

The Chen family said this, and Old Lady You and You Ziyu couldn't insist on anything. It's just that Mrs. You had the idea that after the Chen family gave birth to a grandson, she would take her to the upper room to raise her alone, so she carefully prepared a few nurses. Now that Chen has said that she wants to nurse her own child and raise her child, the nurse she prepared is useless, so isn't there even nowhere to implement her idea?

When Mrs. You thought about this, she was still a little unwilling. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Chen ask You Ziyu: "Have you hung a bow and arrows outside, have you sent someone to report the good news to your relatives everywhere?" Didn't I say you, I don't know what I'm busy with during the day, and I still need to remind you of such a big thing? Is this your own son, or are you dissatisfied with our mother and son, so you hide and refuse to inform your relatives......"

You Ziyu, who was counted, told him to forgive again and again, and got up and went out without mentioning it.

This old lady You still didn't give up, and she was going around and around about the nurse. The Chen family had already seen through Old Lady You's plan, but she was too heavy to fight with the old lady, so she pretended not to know. At this time, even the child has been born, so naturally he has the energy to deal with Mrs. You. Immediately opened his mouth and said, "It's not that I can't trust the old lady. It's just that I'm a mother, and I can't see those demon nurses. Not to mention that they also have their own children to feed, whether they can serve their masters wholeheartedly. What I hate the most is the first-class nurse, relying on the fact that the masters ate a few mouthfuls of their milk when they were young, and then they took advantage of their power and blessings. It's okay to do everything at home. What's more, the little masters instigated by relying on their close relationship with the little masters are not close to their own fathers and mothers, but close to them irrelevant sluts. In the past, when I was in the Zhao family, the old immortal of the Zhao family wanted to use the mouth of the nurse to instigate our mother and daughter to be incompatible, so that I found out, and hit forty boards to drive people out. Since then, I have fed my children and refused to use the hand of others. I think the old lady is a compassionate and understanding person, and she will definitely not do the foolish things that the old pious woman of the Zhao family would do? ”

Old Mrs. You was robbed by Chen's such a beating, and her face burned a little. Hurriedly opened his mouth and smiled: "What did my daughter-in-law say?" Of course I wouldn't do that. What's more, the nurses I chose are also the most amiable and honest—"

Before he finished speaking, Chen smiled and said, "I knew that the old lady was not that kind of person." So there is no need to mention the matter of the nurse. As the saying goes, once I was bitten by a snake for ten years, I was afraid of the well rope, and since the old lady knew my heart, she should pity me and fulfill me. ”

Chen's words have already said this, and Mrs. You is helpless, and she can only agree at the moment.

Chen has been tossing and turning all night in order to give birth to a child, and he is also a little tired this time. I was too lazy to talk to Mrs. You, and only smiled and said that the old lady was too old to toss day after day, and it was time to go back and rest. lest you get sick tomorrow, and when the child washes the third day, let outsiders see it, and that is not like words.

When Mrs. You heard this, she also cared about Chen's words, so she had no choice but to go.

When there were only three sisters left in the room, Chen finished feeding the children and fastened their clothes, and ordered Chunlan Qiuju to lift the tent and hang the curtain, and said to the eldest girl with a smile: "This old lady, when she raised her granddaughter, she blindly instigated people to help her husband's family help her mother's family. turned around and faced his daughter-in-law, and was full of three obedience and four virtues, asking the woman to marry and obey her husband. But she didn't know that her daughter-in-law was also the daughter and granddaughter of someone else's family, which shows that she is selfish and selfish, and she doesn't know what it means to do to others what you don't want to do to others. With such a foolish and unrighteous person, how can I trust my son to her upbringing? ”

The eldest girl might as well Chen actually said these words to her, but she was stunned again.

Seeing that Chen was still full of spring breeze and smiled: "You are docile and shy by nature, and your majesty is merciful and generous, so it can be seen that you are a kind-hearted person." That's why I like you. It's just that I'm not your biological mother after all, and it's not good to dismiss anything in front of the old lady. I can only persuade you in private. It must be known that good people in the world may not be able to have good rewards, but people with clear eyes and bright hearts are never easy to be deceived. You are going to marry into the Houmen of the Gongfu now and be the Duchess of the Kingdom, and you are afraid that there will be 10,000 eyes staring at your every move at that time. You also have to have some success in your heart, think about it for yourself, and don't let others say that you are what you are! ”

When the eldest girl heard this, she was so moved that her face turned red. Immediately looked at Chen with tears in his eyes, and said in his mouth: "I never thought that my mother was now pregnant with my younger brother, but she still had to think about me." My daughter is really unfilial......"

Seeing this, Chen waved his hand with more and more headaches, and said in his mouth: "Don't you always be like this, I'm just giving you an instruction in vain." You're so old, you should have your own ideas when thinking about things. The family you want to marry in the past looks majestic and prominent on the outside, but it is difficult to keep it clean inside. I say something that I'm not afraid of being annoying, but I'm afraid that the bad days are still to come. If you can't stand up on your own, I, the mother, will be in a hurry and can't live for you......"
