Chapter 236: Born
Foreigner Li also wanted ten more brocades. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But this brocade is not only expensive, it is not easy to buy. Qian Yixiu shook his head and pointed to the soft satin, meaning that he could give ten horses of this soft satin.
When Mr. Li saw it, he pointed to the tea leaves again, and made a gesture, asking for another twenty catties.
Qian Yixiu drew a circle on the bell again.
The foreigner gestured and said, "OK."
Qian Yixiu is now learning to use, and also gestured, saying, "OK."
Body language knows no borders. The two made a comparison for a while, opening the first cooperation between the Great Qian Dynasty and the other side of the ocean.
The deal was negotiated, and Foreigner Li hurried back to find the big army. He called Lin Qing over, talked to him again and again, and discussed asking him to protect himself again. Lin Qing has been in contact with him for more than two months, using both hands and mouth, and the two of them can basically communicate.
Lin Qingneng led Foreigner Li to run so far, not only did Foreigner Li save his life, but also gave him a round glass mirror and a telescope, these two things he couldn't earn in his life.
Of course, Lin Qing is also a gentleman, and he did not kill for money.
Li Laowai promised him again to protect himself again, and gave him a large glass vase, an ivory ornament, and a pocket watch.
Lin Qing thought about it, he ran down these two times, sold his things, and could live a rich life without doing anything, so he nodded.
Lin Qing said to Qian Yixiu, "It took us a month and a half to get here from Pengzhen, and this trip back and forth even took more than three months." When I came back, it was already April, and I had to spend the year outside. ”
Qian Yixiu said, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Lin." And he gave him a hundred taels of silver as a fee for his hard work.
The two said that they would leave early tomorrow morning.
Qian Yixiu went to the room again and secretly told Qian Sangui about the business he talked about with foreigners.
The excuse she made was that the giant firearms on the Fanren ship that Lin Qing talked about were particularly powerful, much more powerful than crossbows and bows, so that those pirates did not dare to come forward. It sounds like these giant firecrackers are a bit like the earthen cannons mentioned in Liang Gongzi's letter. Liang Gongzi and they are developing, and it is not certain whether they can be built or not.
I asked the people to get an earthen cannon over, find a craftsman to disassemble and assemble it, and then draw the drawings and send them to Qian Manjiang, who will present them. In this way, not only can the Great Yuan Kingdom be defeated earlier, but also let Daddy return home earlier. Daddy also made a miraculous achievement, maybe he can be promoted a few levels because of this.
Qian Yixiu said regretfully, "Now that the sea ban is being carried out, smuggling is illegal." Otherwise, let's send the giant firecracker directly to the border gate, and we don't have to disassemble and assemble it ourselves. ”
Qian Sangui was very happy to hear this, he heard that his granddaughter made this transaction with pearls, and thought it was the rare pearl in his own hands. He gave half of his pearls to Qian Yixiu, saying that he couldn't let his granddaughter suffer.
In the afternoon and evening, Qian Yijin also came to the West Wing guest room and learned words with his sister with Mr. Li.
Foreigner Li is not only interesting, but also very patient and creative, teaching the little brothers and sisters with comparisons, and giving thumbs up to the "very smart" female students from time to time.
Although Qian Yijin was very attentive, he still didn't remember many words. In the evening, when the brother and sister returned to the inner courtyard, Qian Yijin said in frustration, "My sister is so smart, she learns much faster than my brother." ”
Qian Yixiu said with a smile, "It's not that I learned fast, but I used a trick to remember it quickly." For example, when I was learning from my father and my mother, I said in my heart, "Daddy, father, mother, mother...... It's so smooth and easy to remember. ”
deceived the children, and the bad aunts were happy in their hearts. In my previous life, I went to play with my colleagues' classmates, and what I listened to the most were these recordings of teaching children.
Xiao Zhengtai nodded thoughtfully, "My sister just loves to use her brains, no wonder she does everything well." My brother remembered that no matter what he learned in the future, he had to find a trick. After speaking, he also squeezed his sister's little hand vigorously to express his admiration.
The next day, Lin Qing and Li Laowai drove the carriage away in a hurry.
Later, Qian Yixiu seemed to inadvertently popularize the importance of strengthening maritime shipping and weapons to a country, and felt that since he wanted to enter the government in the future, it was best to know some knowledge in this area. Her excuse was to hear people talking about it secretly when she went to the capital.
Before the Chinese New Year, Qian Sangui discussed with Qian Yijin and Qian Yixiu, and gave them a year-end bonus according to the size of their contributions.
Qian Hua and Master Jin took the most, one hundred taels of silver each. Cai He and Xie Er's shopkeeper in the capital each had thirty taels of silver, and Old Man Cai, Huang Tie, and Su Ming each had ten taels of silver. These are high-level employees, and the money they take is kept secret from the outside world. Since Cai He and Xie Er's shopkeeper were both in the capital, the silver was brought over by Qian Hua, who entered Beijing in April to replace Cai He.
The highest three taels of silver for the others gradually decreased, and the least also took one tael of silver. In addition, everyone who got married was given rice and sausages, and those who were not married were given snacks and sweets.
Although Hua Zhuang had only just started working, because Hua Qiang had done well before, he still gave him two taels of silver and some food. I was so happy that Hua Zhuang and Mrs. Hua came to the garden to kowtow to Qian Sangui.
The news that the villagers gave big red envelopes to the subordinates and the long-term workers spread in the village, which aroused the envy and jealousy of the villagers for the long-term workers.
Tang said angrily to Qian Ergui, "That's still your own brother, don't even blink an eye when you give outsiders money." I refused to give our son-in-law twenty taels of silver, and watched my son-in-law go to death. If her son-in-law dies, Duo Niang will become a widow......"
Qian Ergui defended, "The son-in-law went to war, and the third brother didn't know, what do you blame him for?" ”
Tang said, "He doesn't live far away, can he not know such a big thing?" Anyway, in his eyes, his brother and nephew are not as good as the upper and lower people. ”
Qian Ergui also felt that this was the reason when he heard it, and he didn't want to say that Qian Sangui ignored brotherhood and sat down to sulk.
Qian Manhe said angrily, "Dad, my mother is confused, are you also confused?" The money belongs to the third uncle, and he can give as much as he wants. The relationship between several families has reached this point, isn't it because these people have bad intentions first? The mother didn't use her brains to do things at the beginning, and she was poked by the eldest uncle to deliberately anger the third uncle. The third uncle's family hates his mother more than he hates the eldest uncle, you don't think about how to improve the relationship with the third uncle, and you are still thinking here that people should send money to save your son-in-law. It's up to you to figure it out! He said to the unconvinced Tang family, "Mother, if you get confused and do something bad again, let your father divorce you, and don't blame your son for not helping you." I don't want this big family to be dragged to death by you and Duo Niang, the baby and the baby are still so young, I have to think about them. ”
Qian Ergui listened to his son's words, and felt that his son was right, so he couldn't stop nodding.
was so angry that Tang scolded his son for being disobedient and unfilial, but he didn't dare to blow the wind in his ears to Qian Ergui anymore.
On the morning of the 30th, Qian Manchuan and Qian Manhe also came to Huiyuan to pick up Qian Sangui's family, and their family had not been to the Qian family's compound for a long time.
This time, there are not many things in the three rooms to honor the old couple, but they are all expensive, including the glass mirror that is worth a lot of money.
Mrs. Xideqian was so happy that her mouth was even more crooked, and she said in a loud voice, "Ouch, the old woman is enjoying the blessings of her third son, and she also uses a glass mirror." I heard that this thing is so precious that only the very rich can use it. ”
Old man Qian smiled, "The old woman is confused again, now our grandson is a big official, and we are also extremely wealthy." ”
The other three rooms, except for the fourth room and Qian Manchuan and Qian Manhe, have seen glass a few times, and no one else has seen it, and they all want to see what this glass mirror looks like and what is the difference between it and the copper mirror. The old lady was afraid of breaking the mirror, so she didn't dare to take it, and she didn't allow them to take it. Only let Qian Sigui, who was doing things steadily, take it, let everyone take a look, and then quickly put it away. No matter how much you want to look, you can't take a second look.
Several families can see that the things sent by the third room this time are only for the two old people, not for the filial piety of the big house as in previous years.
Tang finally balanced, and the big man beat the boss with joy, wanting to see Wang's reaction. As a result, people were confused, and they were still holding Wu's hand and laughing.
Tang was unwilling, and leaned over again and smiled, "Third brother and sister, in previous years, as soon as your family gave filial piety to your in-laws, you were filial piety together with the big house, why is this year different from previous years?" ”
Wu pretended not to hear, and laughed with Wang and left the house.
Tang wanted to continue talking about Wang, but when he saw his son glaring at her, he had to keep his mouth shut.
Old man Qian led a large family to the grave again. The little brother and sister don't need to burn paper for the little daddy anymore this year, and even the original little grave has been flattened. Old man Qian was happy, and reported to his ancestors that his grandson had become a five-grade official, and his family was now an official......
Now that the descendants of the Qian family have grown again, there are three tables in the hall. The old couple had a table with four sons and two grandchildren, a table for the women and a table for the children.
Before eating the New Year's dinner, Old Man Qian summarized the achievements and harvests of the year as usual. The three rooms that have made outstanding contributions to the family's change of courtyard were mainly commended. He also criticized the ignorant woman for telling right and wrong, almost making a big mistake, and if she made it again in the future, she would resolutely sweep out the door of the money house. also criticized Qian Sigui for making a loss in the dim sum business in the provincial capital, which made the already difficult old brother's dim sum restaurant even worse......
In the end, let the four brothers of the Qian family unite, live in harmony as before, and make the business of the Qian family prosperous.
The four brothers of the Qian family all smiled and raised their bowls, as if there had never been a festival.
Duoduo whispered to Qian Yixiu, "Sister Xiu, I'm especially afraid that you will ignore me, I am so happy that you can come to my house today." ”
Duoduo has a little smack, and the baby fat on his face has disappeared a lot. Due to the good conditions at home, she has never been allowed to work under the sun since she was a child, and her complexion is fair and delicate.
Xiao Nizi is very pretty, and she will be a beauty when she grows up.
Qian Yixiu pinched her face and smiled, "Sister Xiu also likes Duoduo, how can she ignore you?" After speaking, he sandwiched another piece of fat braised pork for her.
Xiao Nizi happily put the meat in her mouth.
After the New Year's dinner, the second and third rooms should go back to their homes.
Qian Manpo, Shanwa, Dewa, and Jinwa followed the people in the third room to the wasteland in the west of the village. Today, this wasteland can be regarded as the most lively and joyful area in Huaxi Village. Many red lanterns were hung on the trees in the wasteland, and many children and half-grown children set off firecrackers here, chasing and fighting.
Qian Yijin and Qian Xiaolei also stayed here to play with the children, and the others returned to the park.
Because Cheng Yue had difficulty going up and down the stairs, Qian Yixiu asked people to move her bedroom to the first floor two months early. At this time, Cheng Yue was sitting in the house waiting for her family to come back. She has changed into a cotton robe embroidered with red soft satin and peonies, wearing a peacock swaying with rubies, and she is looking forward to celebrating the New Year with her family.
Just when she was a little impatient, she saw that her daughter had finally returned. She struggled to stand up under the support of Chenyu, held up her pointed belly like a cannonball head to meet her daughter, pouted and took her daughter's hand and said, "Xiu'er is back, my mother misses you and Jinwa, and I also miss Brother Jiang." ”
Qian Yixiu said with a smile, "We also miss our mother, and we rushed back as soon as we finished eating." He said for the little daddy, "Daddy also misses my mother." ”
Then he led her to the upper room of the main courtyard. It was the first time for the Wu family to see Cheng Yue dressed so festively, and said with a smile, "Yo, Yue'er is dressed like this, and she really has the style of Mrs. Fate." ”
In the first month, the Sanfang family spent time in tension. Cheng Yue's due date is early February, but because of the twins, she is likely to be born prematurely. In other words, the child is likely to be born in the first month.
And Cheng Yue's stomach is too big, her lower limbs are badly swollen, her breathing is not smooth, and she often complains of stomach pain. Even if Dr. Du is there, the family is also worried.
Especially when sleeping, it is difficult for Cheng Yue, who occupies most of the bed, to turn over. She often wakes up crying from nightmares, either dreaming that Brother Jiang was being chased and killed, or that her mother called her in the sky.
Looking at Cheng Yue's almost transparent belly full of blood vessels, as well as her unstable emotions, Qian Yixiu's heart tightened.
Not only does Dr. Du follow her from time to time, but Zhang Yang will also make a special trip to check her pulse every once in a while, and Dr. Lin will come almost every day.
This made Mrs. Qian shake her head again, and muttered to Qian Sangui, "Have you gone too far?" Isn't it just to give birth to a baby! It's as big as the battle between the princess and the county lord. At the beginning, Manjiang's daughter-in-law was also pregnant with twins, and it was not easy to give birth to Jinwa and Xiu'er, and she was not invited to connect with her mother-in-law, so she gave birth to herself. ”
Qian Sangui said, "I was poor at the beginning, and if something really happened, I couldn't do anything." Now that the conditions are good, we must do our best to ensure that the adults and children are safe. ”
Early in the morning of the twentieth day of the first month, Qian Yixiu and Qian Yijin, who had finished their long vacation, went to Linhe Garden again to attend classes. Although Qian Yixiu only lasted for an hour, he still couldn't concentrate his energy, and was gently knocked on the head several times by Mr. Yu with a ring ruler.
As soon as she got out of class, she hurriedly walked back with Zizhu.
As soon as I passed the Moon Gate, I saw Wu and He walking towards Wangjiang Tower in a panic. Seeing this, Qian Yixiu also sped up.
Wu did not enter the Wangjiang Tower, but bypassed the Wangjiang Tower and went to the back. There are several wings at the back of the building, which were originally warehouses, and now two rooms have been packed out for Cheng Yue's production.
Qian Yixiu's heart suddenly came up, the little lady is about to give birth? She also followed to the backyard and heard Cheng Yue's moaning coming from the wing.
Qian Yixiu just wanted to step up the steps, but was blocked by the Wu family. said, "Your mother is giving birth inside, and you can't go in." The Wu family asked people to go to the east of the village to call Mrs. Wang to help, and Mrs. Wang was also a midwife.
Cheng Yue's intermittent moans and screams of pain came from the room, and Qian Yixiu covered her mouth and cried from time to time.
At the next morning, Qian Sangui, Old Man Qian, and Mrs. Qian all came, and they sat in the Wangjiang Tower waiting for news.
Qian Yijin didn't go to class either, he stood in front of the wing room with Qian Yixiu and waited, no matter how persuaded by others, he didn't leave. Especially after dusk, Cheng Yue's voice was already hoarse, and her screams were even more terrifying. The two little siblings were sad and scared, hugging their heads and crying.
Qian Yijin also cried in a loud voice, "Mother, you have to be good, Jinwa and my sister can't live without a mother." ”
When Qian Manxia heard about it, she also ran over and stood outside with her little brother and sister to wait.
After dark, some midwives began to come out and pour blood and water, basin after basin, and the little brother and sister were crying again, and their bodies kept shaking. Qian Manxia hugged them and persuaded them from time to time.
Suddenly, a loud cry came, and the midwife shouted, "Congratulations to Mrs., congratulations to grandma, it's a boy." ”
Then came the sound of Wu's laughter and talking.
When the little brother and sister heard this, they stopped crying, and they all clung to the small window, expecting a second cry.
About a quarter of an hour later, another cry was heard. The midwife exclaimed, "Oh my God, this time it's a girl." The eldest grandmother gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses again! ”
ps: Thank you for your reward and monthly pass~~ This time I really gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. (To be continued.) )
