On that day, the sun was rarely shining, and the gentle spring breeze blew through every corner of the north and south of the river, blowing away all kinds of flowers in spring, and also blowing green green trees and weeping willows in the south of the Yangtze River.

In the Yahou Mansion in Fuyang County, two peach blossom trees are particularly bright, and the tender pink flowers echo with the light green leaves on the willow trees outside the yard, praising the breath of spring.

Under the instructions of Mama Song, Wu's mother took all the bedding to the sun to dry, and saw that the peach blossoms in the main courtyard were really gratifying, so she went back to the house and hugged Xiao Rumu to play under the peach blossom tree.

Under the peach blossom tree, the sun shone sparsely down, Xiao Rumu squinted at Mama Wu who was going to bring peach blossoms to herself, shook her little head, stubbornly tore off Mama Wu's hand and walked away by herself, letting Mama Wu cover her mouth behind her and snicker. Just when Xiao Rumu slowly moved her little fat legs, secretly sighing that she would not be able to escape this weight loss in the future, Song Han's cry of pain suddenly sounded in the master bedroom on the second floor, and then there were exclamations of green cedars and red apricots.

Xiao Rumu, who had just walked a few steps, was frightened by this voice, staggered two steps and fell to the ground, and a bad premonition came to mind.

And Wu's mother behind her was also shocked when she heard the voice, hurriedly stopped smiling, stepped forward to pick up Xiao Rumu who fell to the ground, touched Xiao Rumu's face, and said "Miss is not afraid" twice, then held her breath and looked at the slightly open window on the second floor in a daze.

In the continuous cry of pain, I saw Lushan rushing out of the building with a panicked face, and when he saw Wu's mother there in a daze, he grabbed Wu's mother's hand and said hurriedly: "Wu's mother...... Mrs. doesn't know if it's going to give birth, you hurry up and find Mama Song to take a look, I have to go to the front to tell the adult, and I have to find the doctor and Wen Po, please! Afraid that Wu's mother would have an accident in case something happened, Lushan ran out a few steps and turned back to urge: "You must be tight, there is an ignorant girl on the red apricot!" Seeing that Wu's mother hurriedly nodded and hugged Xiao Rumu and ran to the small courtyard in the distance, she pulled out her legs and ran in the direction of the front ya.

Song Han's due date was supposed to be a month later, but no one expected that it would suddenly be so many days earlier. So when Song Han, who was in the front office, arranged for people to go to the doctor and Wen Po respectively, and hurried back to the backyard with the green cedar, he happened to hear a cry of pain from Song Han upstairs, so he didn't care about anything, took off his official hat and rushed upstairs.

Song Hanshi, who was lying on the bed in the room, closed his eyes tightly, and his face was already oozing a layer of fine beads of sweat in pain, and under the beads of sweat were pale faces and bloodless cherry lips. One hand caressed her abdomen, the other hand held Mama Song's hand, every knuckle on her clenched hand was milky white, and when she heard Mama Song ask her to slow down her breathing, she frowned and adjusted her breathing.

Song Han's cry of pain made Song Han, who was extremely anxious, startled, and couldn't help but throw his official hat to the ground, ran to the side of the bed and half-knelt to hold Song Han's hand, and asked urgently: "Madam, are you okay?" It's too late for my husband! Seeing that Song Han's eyes were filled with tears when he looked at him, he then gritted his teeth and shook his head with a smile to himself, Song Han asked Mama Song beside him: "Mama, is Xiu'er really going to give birth?" ”。

Mama Song, who was comforting Song Han's family, hurriedly nodded when she heard the words and said, "Yes, it seems that this child is destined to come early." My lord...... You better hurry up and go out to see if Wen Po is here, here is me and Mother Wu to take care of, you can rest assured. ”

Song Han was a little hesitant to leave, so anxious that Song Han spent a lot of effort to persuade: "Husband, you listen to Mama's words and go out quickly, what if you get bad luck here, go quickly, the concubine is fine." ”

In desperation, Song Han nodded and said, "Madam, you must hold on, for the sake of your husband, you will urge your mother to go." ”

At this time, another burst of pain struck, and Song Han, who gritted his teeth and endured the pain, said intermittently to Song Han: "Don't worry, husband, the concubine will definitely keep this child, so that the husband will not have to be embarrassed for the concubine when he returns to the house in the future." ”

Song Han, who wanted to say something more, nodded vigorously with a smile after hesitating, and only then got up and went downstairs to let the scholar who was waiting downstairs hurry up to wait for Mrs. Wen.

After such a tea time, when Hongxing had already boiled the hot water, Mama Song and Mama Wu cleaned up the room, and Wen Po was finally brought in by the messenger sent by Song Han. Before she could salute Song Han, she was urged upstairs by Song Han.

With nervousness and anticipation, Song Han, who had been walking back and forth downstairs for several hours, first asked Master Liang's wife to take Xiao Rumu, and then instructed the kitchen cook to prepare porridge for Song Han's before continuing to walk back and forth to relieve his increasingly uneasy mood.

After a long time, I suddenly heard a chaotic sound of talking upstairs, and then I saw Wu Ma and Hong Xing hurriedly running downstairs. Song Han, who thought that there was good news soon, immediately greeted him and asked with a smile, "How is the situation upstairs?" ”

Hong Xing shrank and didn't dare to reply, but Wu's mother hesitated for a long time before whispering to Song Han: "Wen Po said that Mrs. Wen had a difficult birth, let's ask the adults, is it Mrs. Bao or the child?" ”

Song Han, who had been immersed in the prospect of becoming a father, heard these words for the first time in full of anticipation and joy, and stood in place as if he had been struck by a huge thunderbolt, wanting to say something, but his throat couldn't make a sound. After working hard for a long time, Song Han heard his trembling voice and asked, "What did you just say?" Again, I didn't hear clearly. ”

Mother Wu's face turned pale instantly when she saw Song Han, and she knew in her heart the relationship between the two couples on weekdays, thinking that Song Han must be so shocked, so Mother Wu had to quickly repeat what she had just said.

After reconfirming, Song Han was really stunned by this news, and his mind was full of "The child that he and Song Han have been looking forward to for so many years, when he (she) is finally coming, he has to face such a difficult choice, why should God treat him like this?" If there is no such child, how will Song Han live in the future? ”

At this time, there was a faint voice from Song Hanshi upstairs, followed by Mama Song's hoarse voice crying: "You stupid child, what can be more important than an adult?" You're still young, just have another one in the future! ”

Hearing Mama Song's words clearly, Song Han, who was still a little forward-looking, was like an initiation, and suddenly came to his senses, and shouted while pushing Wu Ma and Hongxing: "Hurry up and go upstairs and talk to Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Bao, Mrs. Bao...... Hurry up and ......".

Song Han, who saw the two disappear at the top of the stairs, only felt collapsed after saying these words, and sat on the bluestone steps as soon as his body became weak. Looking up at the flickering lights from the windows on the second floor, thinking of the child who was abandoned by himself, Song Han slowly closed his eyes weakly, and silently muttered in his heart, "I'm sorry for you for my father, my child!" Two lines of tears slipped down from the corners of his eyes unconsciously.

Master Liang on the side and the errand officer who had run to ask for someone before stepped forward to help Song Han, but they didn't know how to comfort Song Han, who had not yet had time to enjoy the happiness of his father, that is, Song Han, who was facing the pain of losing his son, and several big men stood quietly and silently.

After another hour of tossing and turning, a baby's cry suddenly came from the second floor, and in the silence of the night, this cry was especially crisp and loud.

But this baby's cry, when recalling all of Song Han's lost consciousness, made Song Han feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he was shocked, and without a trace of hesitation, he broke free from everyone and rushed to the second floor.
