Chapter 2: Daddy
"Female dolls, it's rare." "The little girl is so good-looking, it's really painful!" Mrs. Fang, Gu's, and Xu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law surrounded the little girl who had just been born, and they were full of praise. Mrs. Fang, who is a grandmother, is of course full of joy, and the Gu family and Xu, who are aunts and aunts, are really happy to see Xiao Nan Nan in Pei's house for the first time.
Lin Youhui hid on the delivery bed with a tired expression, looking at the little swaddling clothes beside him, and the corners of his lips were filled with a smile of relief. Zhonglang has been thinking about having a little girl, but now it's good, he finally got his wish.
The little baby girl cried loudly, "Wow, wow, wow, ah." Mrs. Fang picked her up and patted her in distress, "Girl, don't cry, don't cry." The Gu family and the Xu family looked around one by one, "Look at the little appearance of Nannan, I don't know how wronged I am." "Our eldest lady cries so loudly, she is blessed when she grows up!"
Mrs. Fang hurriedly smiled and said, "You can't be called Miss!" If the gods and Buddhas know the Tao of the Tao, we only have this little treasure in our family, and we can't worry about it? Let's follow my brothers, Xiao Jiu. ”
There was only one, too lonely and too conspicuous. If there are nine, then it is not undesirable and unremarkable. Nan Nan has just been born, and if the villain's family is too noble, he can't afford it. What "eldest lady" is not "eldest lady", my family doesn't want that name, and can grow up peacefully, that's what matters.
Gu is about thirty years old, with a round face, a neat bun, and a very gentle and generous appearance, she smiled and said: "What my mother said is that Nan Nan should be called Xiao Jiu." As soon as people heard it, they knew that she had eight brothers, who would dare to bully her? The young, beautiful and elegant Xu also laughed, "It's still thoughtful!" Our little girl, it should be called Xiao Jiu! ”
Lin Youhui was extremely tired, and after drinking a small bowl of chicken soup, he fell asleep.
She slept very sweetly, and Mrs. Fang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were also very happy around the little baby girl who had just been born, and the men outside were in a hurry. Pei Mi waited to see his daughter, Pei Yin and Pei Bi brothers waited to see their little niece, and their brothers waited to see their little sister, everyone was anxious.
"Little girl take it out and let us take a look!" "I just care about you guys, I don't know if we're waiting outside!" They complained.
When they were angry, Pei Taishou, who was the head of the family, came back. It is now the spring of March, Pei Taishou is supervising the silk and other things from Suzhou to the capital as usual, and he is too busy to go home, and his children and grandchildren have not seen him for several days. At this time, seeing his old man coming slowly, everyone thought it was funny: although the little girl was just born, she had great strength. No, my grandfather even put aside his urgent duties, and hurried to see her.
The children and grandchildren came forward to greet them, and the three sons and seven grandchildren (the youngest was only seven or eight months old, and he couldn't walk or join in the fun), it seemed to be very lively. Pei Taishou smiled and looked at the children and grandchildren in front of him, and a sense of pride arose in his heart. The three sons, Pei Yin, Pei Mi, and Pei Bi, are all good-looking and good-looking, with skin like clotted fat, eyes like paint, and bright like a jade tree in the wind. Although the grandchildren are still young, they are all clear and beautiful, and their manners are extraordinary.
The three children in the big house are all steady. Pei Yin's eldest son, Pei Wei, the eldest young master of the Pei family, is twelve years old this year, and he looks calm and serious; The second Pei Jue is ten years old this year, and like his eldest brother, he is also a teenager; Even Pei Lang, the fourth six-year-old, does not jump out like children of the same age. The third Pei Qi and the sixth Pei Ying are children in the second room, one is more than six years old and the other is more than three years old, both of them are carved in powder and jade, and they are childish; The fifth Pei Heng and the seventh Pei Jing are children in the third room, one is five years old and the other is three years old. Not to mention the eighth Pei Lin, who is less than a year old, and is still breastfeeding at this time.
Now there is Xiao Nannan, Xiao Jiu.
Pei Taishou brushed his mustache and had a satisfied smile on his face.
Pei Yu Dong ran to his grandfather, and begged in a milky voice, "Grandfather, look at my sister!" "Although he is only more than three years old, he is also very good at joining in the fun. In his little heart, the uncle, father, and third uncle are all worried about seeing the little sister, then, the little sister must be very interesting and fun, go and see it.
Xiao Pei Jin's words expressed the hearts of all the men and boys present. His brothers nodded one after another, and little Pei Jing loudly agreed, "Yes, look at my sister!" ”
Pei Yao happily followed the voice and looked over, with a sense of joy between her eyebrows. Seventh brother, you are very sensible, exactly the same as the sixth brother thinks! Pei Jing probably had a heart for him, and ran towards him happily. Pei Yu held his brother's hand, and the two children looked at each other and smiled, raised their little faces, and looked at their grandfather expectantly.
Pei Taishou sat down on the circle chair, looked at the two little grandsons lovingly, and smiled without saying a word.
Although Pei Taishou's eyes were full of joy, his face was full of lingering tiredness, Uncle Pei felt sorry for his father, and reprimanded softly: "Luo'er, Jing'er, don't be naughty." My grandfather just came back from the Yamen, and he hasn't drunk a sip of water yet! "The old man is tired from running around outside, and he can't rest for a moment when he gets home, so I have to coax you two to be a little trickster first.
Pei Ying and Pei Jing let out an "oh" and lowered their little heads, "Yes, uncle, the child knows his mistake." "The two children were already small, and now they are depressed and look very pitiful.
The maid held the tea, Pei Taishou did not accept the tea, and glanced at Uncle Pei lightly. Uncle Pei's heart tightened, and he lowered his head in shame. Fang Cai's tone of reprimanding Yao'er and Jing'er was too harsh and scared the child? No wonder my father was distressed.
After a long time, Pei Tai Shoufang took the tea cup and took a sip slowly. He called Pei Jin and Pei Jing, and said softly: "My sister is too young and delicate, and I can't see it at this time." Jin'er, Jing'er, go back to rest first, wake up tomorrow, and then come to see my sister. ”
Pei Jin and Pei Jing obediently agreed, "Yes, grandfather." Pei Wei had a look in his eyes, and took his younger brothers to say goodbye to his grandfather, father, and uncles, and went back to his room. Since my grandfather ordered it, I won't be able to see my sister today, so let's do it tomorrow.
After Pei Wei and the others left, Pei Taishou asked if the baby and the mother were fine, the mother and daughter were safe, nodded, and got up to leave. Pei Sanye was anxious, "Dad, don't you want to take a look at Xiao Nannan?" "Look at the child, we can also get a light.
Pei Taishou stopped and frowned slightly, "You are also the father of three children, why did you still fail like this?" I came back from outside for my father, covered with dust, but Xiao Nan was just born, and she was very delicate. ”
Pei Sanye opened his mouth and stammered. The little girl was born, very delicate, and you came back from outside...... What does this have to do with that? He didn't know if he was too anxious or what, and for a while, he didn't even understand this truth.
Pei Taishou glanced at him patiently, "Go back to the room for my father to wash and change clothes, clean up and refresh, and then come and see Xiao Nannan!" "Walk away.
Pei Sanye slowly came back to his senses, and his two brothers over there laughed. Uncle Pei laughed for a while, straightened his clothes, "That, I'm going out to meet friends today, and I'm also covered in dust, so I'll go back to the room to change clothes." Pei Erye chuckled, "I haven't gone out, I've been reading books in the study." However, she is small and delicate, so it is more appropriate for me to change my clothes. The two of them laughed and went out together, and walked away.
Pei Sanye paused, "Big brother and second brother, wait for me!" "I chased after my two brothers and went too.
By the time Pei Taishou's father and son came back again, everyone had just bathed, and they were all refreshed. Pei Taishou examined the three sons one by one, first nodded with satisfaction, and then straightened his face, "They are all fathers, and they are all attentive to everything!" The wind, frost, snow and rain outside, don't bring it to the children! ”
The three brothers laughed and said "yes."
Pei Taishou wants to see Xiao Nannan, how can he not do it? Mrs. Fang personally hugged her little granddaughter out, smiling from ear to ear, "I cried for a long time before I fell asleep." Look, sir, how good your life is! Zhilu said that Pei Taishou would not hold the child, and thoughtfully hugged the little swaddling clothes and approached Pei Taishou, so that he could take a closer look.
Pei Taishou's gaze fell on that immature little face, and he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore. Look at this little mouth, little nose, little ears...... It's so cute!
Poor Second Master Pei finally got a beautiful girl, but he could only watch the little swaddling clothes, and it was not his turn to hold the child.
Pei Taishou stared at Xiao Nannan for a long time, and the more he looked at it, the more he became fascinated, and he didn't mean to give half a cent to his sons. Finally, the three brothers next to him couldn't help it, and regardless of how majestic their father was on weekdays, they all leaned over and looked greedily at the little baby girl in Mrs. Fang's arms.
Pei Sanye praised him, "Xiao Nan is really a girl from my Pei family, she looks really Peugeot!" "Uncle Pei is kind to be an elder brother, so he specially made room for Second Master Pei so that he could feast his eyes, "Second brother, take a good look at your daughter." ”
Pei Erye saw his daughter's delicate little face, and his tears almost didn't fall. Girl, baby, I'm your father.
Pei Erye's body trembled slightly, and he cautiously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his daughter's little face. When his hand was only in the air, he was unceremoniously stopped by Pei Sanye, "Second brother, don't be like this, you are still young." ”
Second Master Pei gave him a blank look, "This is my daughter!" "Third brother, I don't love her more than you.
Pei Sanye smiled, "What, second brother, this is the daughter of our three families!" ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Pei Sanye together, and he was even more proud, "The baby of the three families, you can't swallow it alone, second brother, right?" Brothers should be blessed and share hardships, right? There is only one little girl in our family, second brother, this is the daughter of our three families! ”
He happily pointed at Uncle Pei, "Big brother, you are the big daddy!" He pointed to Second Master Pei, who had a calm face, "Second brother, are you...... Daddy! The most rearly pointed at himself and said with a smile: "I, naturally, it's the third father!" ”
