Keep yelling, begging for tickets, it's not very long if you don't roar.

Xing Wenpo hurriedly saluted Xia Yiqing, and then went to the delivery room in a hurry.

Zhihua followed behind, and told the chess player that his father had just met Xing Wenpo and came back, and Xia Yiqing bowed his head.

In the delivery room, Zhen Xuan had just been in pain for a while, but now she was more comfortable, Gao's mother was talking to her on the side, she didn't answer much, she either nodded or shook her head.

Xing Wenpo came in, and Gao's mother hurriedly gave her a place.

Xing Wenpo checked it, smiled and said to Zhen Xuan: "Second grandma, this water is broken, but I am afraid that it will take a while to give birth." ”

Zhen Xuan knows this, this kind of thing varies from person to person, some people give birth as soon as the water breaks, and some people wait for two or three days. She looked at Xing Wenpo and said slowly: "I didn't eat at night, can I use a little now." ”

"Use some, or you'll run out of strength when you get angry." Xing Wenpo heard this, got up and walked outside the ear room, she saw Zheng when she came in, and was urged in by Zheng before she bowed, at this time she went out to see, Zheng was still waiting, "Big lady, the second grandmother hasn't eaten at night, prepare some good things in the kitchen, let grandma eat some first." ”

When Zheng heard this, he turned around and instructed to play chess: "Be softer, and prepare the ginseng soup, so as not to lack this and that in a hurry." ”

It's time to play chess.

Zheng didn't plan to go in, there were many people in the delivery room, and a group of people surrounded the one who was lying down. And she is a mother-in-law. The maids and ladies also have to take care of her. It's better to stand outside than to add more and more trouble.

Zheng asked Xing Wenpo again: "How is my daughter-in-law?" ”

Xing Wenpo explained: "I just opened my mouth, but I estimated that my grandmother would be slow to speak, and she couldn't give birth in less than half of the night." ”

When Zheng heard this, his brows stretched and he smiled: "Yo, I'm really a person who can pick a day, and I have to pick the best day." ”

"Not really!" Xing Wenpo responded kindly, "I have delivered more than 100 children. No one is picking the first day of the first lunar month, and the second grandmother must be blessed in her belly. ”

"But it's all handed over to my mother." Zheng smiled and nodded with Xing Wenpo, and raised his eyes to see Xia Yiqing standing by the window, looking at the delivery room with a solemn face.

In the evening, he was persuaded by Zhen Xuan to leave the Tianyi Courtyard, at that time it was said that the water had not yet broken, and the time of a reunion dinner would not change, who knew that it was so fast, and before the banquet was halfway, Zhen Xuan broke the water.

It's a shame that the preparation is quite good, and Chen's mother and Gao's mother have experience. And Xing Wenpo rushed over on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Xia Yiqing didn't listen to the conversation between Xing Wenpo and the Zheng family, and he didn't understand those things as a big man. He couldn't get into the delivery room, so he had to stand here and look inside.

In fact, I can't see Zhen Xuan.

Through the window, a small table was visible, with a lamp on top that illuminated the delivery room, and then a large screen that blocked the bed at the back.

He could hear Mother Gao talking inside, but he didn't hear Zhen Xuan's voice. I think she hasn't screamed in pain yet, so it should be fine.

"Qi Niang." Xia Yiqing called out loud.

Zhen Xuan was resting with her eyes closed, and suddenly heard Xia Yiqing's voice, she opened her eyes suddenly, turned her head and wanted to look outside, but what caught her eye was the sandalwood carved screen sent by Guanyin.

Bang Qin also heard it, turned to look outside the screen, came back and pursed her lips and smiled and said to Zhen Xuan: "The second master is here, just outside the window." ”

Being laughed at by the qin, Zhen Xuan blushed, glared at her, and said, "Go and persuade the second master, he must be drinking on the table, there is a tuyere outside the window, and you should have a headache if you stand there and blow back." How could I have been born so soon, let the second master go and rest early. ”

Zheng walked up to Xia Yiqing, raised his hand and patted his son on the shoulder: "Giving birth to a child is hard work, you stand here, your daughter-in-law will be distracted." ”

Before Xia Yiqing could say anything, Wan Qin came over first and relayed Zhen Xuan's words.

Zheng agreed: "Your daughter-in-law is not wrong at all, don't pestle here, go back quickly, and go to the study if you can't sleep." I'll have someone serve you a bowl of decanting soup in a moment. ”

Xia Yiqing bowed.

He actually has a lot of things to say to Zhen Xuan, but here the Zheng family is here, and so many maids and women are there, and he really can't open his mouth for a while.

Xia Yiqing went to the main house, and carried the food box into the delivery room.

Shredded chicken and green onion porridge, a plate of spring rolls, bean paste balls, eight treasure rice.

Zhiqi asked Zhenxuan: "Grandma, is it sweet or salty?" ”

Zhen Xuan was half-lying, she wanted to eat more when she could eat, in her opinion, the eight treasure rice was the strongest, so she had to play chess and eat half a bowl.

Ben was going to continue eating, but there was another pain, which made her almost vomit out what she had just eaten.

Finally endured this for a while, Zhen Xuan urged: "Scoop some porridge and press it for me." ”

Zhiqi hurriedly filled the porridge and waited for Zhenxuan to drink: "There is still a lot of heat in the kitchen, and grandma can still eat it whenever she wants." ”

Zhen Xuan didn't feel hungry at this time, but for the sake of production, he let the chess hold a small half bowl of porridge.

As the night deepened, there were sporadic firecrackers outside, and Zhen Xuan's stomach was getting more and more painful.

In the east room, Xia Yiqing didn't sleep, he didn't drink much at night, and used sobering soup, so he leaned on the couch and rested for a while.

In a daze, he heard Zhen Xuan's scream, and a spirit's whole body woke up.

Xia Yiqing raised his eyes to look at the Western clock, and he was about to pass Zizheng.

The hands coincided, and the outside suddenly became lively, and the firecrackers rang out in the sky, crackling and hurting the ears.

Xia Yiqing felt that Zhen Xuan's screams overpowered the sound of firecrackers, and his heart followed for a while.

walked to the table and poured water, the entrance was a little cold, Xia Yiqing held the teacup and listened to the movement in the ear room, and listened for a while, whether he was at ease. Put the teacup on the table. Walk up to the chamber.

Inside the transept. Brightly lit.

Zheng had already gone back, and a group of maids were coming in and out, looking busy.

Huaixiang saw Xia Yiqing and saluted in a daze, Chen's mother came out when she heard the movement, and when she saw that it was Xia Yiqing, she hurriedly stopped him: "Second master, where is it so fast to give birth to a child?" Grandma, this is the first child. Second master, don't worry. A woman can't be in a hurry to give birth to a child, she is already giving birth, so the second master will go back and wait for the letter. ”

Xia Yiqing didn't move, and Zhen Xuan's voice was already a little hoarse.

There were a few maids in the delivery room who came out with a basin of water, and Xia Yiqing raised her eyes to look.

The night was too heavy for him to see the color in the basin, only that it was deep.

In my mind, I suddenly remembered what a big man who had dealt with in business in the past said, that was a rough man, and he spoke very directly, he said that his mother-in-law should find a strong butt. At first glance, it is easy to give birth to, but if it is a thin one. Isn't it all the sin that the child is stuck?

At that time, he didn't get married, and he didn't pay attention to them after laughing, but now that he thinks about it, isn't Zhen Xuan just small?

Although he said that he wanted Zhen Xuan to grow more meat, and he did gain some weight during pregnancy, there is still a lot of distance from "good birth", and this sin is a big one.

Xia Yiqing turned his head and looked around, the chess and painting were not there, and while there was no one else on the side, he whispered to Chen's mother: "Mom, if there is any case, tell Wen Po and protect Qi Niang." ”

Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "Second master, it's really fine." ”

Xia Yiqing couldn't stand outside the delivery room anymore, and she didn't want to go back to the house, so she simply went into the study.

The lamp was lit, and the room was softly lit, which was very different from his anxious mood at the moment.

He stood in front of his desk.

Grinding ink can calm the mind, more calmly than writing.

Water was added to the inkstone, and the ink on the table was picked up, and Xia Yiqing slowly grinded it.

The scent of ink gradually spreads, from light to rich, and the ink becomes dark and thick, rippling round and round with the action of grinding.

Xia Yiqing added another spoonful of water.

He thought that when Zhen Xuan first entered the door, he wanted to write the word "Lu" to her, and she stood here, carefully studying ink for him.

She had her head bowed, a strand of forehead hair hanging down, her face small and delicate, and her eyelashes were long, which looked soft in the light.

Then he looked at the account, she read the book, and by the time he looked up she was asleep on the couch.

He painted a portrait of her sleeping face.

The willow leaves are bent, and the cherry red lips are lightly opened, lining the skin as white as a pearl.

Xia Yiqing kept the portrait, he put it in Huimo, took out a copy in front of the bookshelf and opened it, and it was the portrait that was sandwiched in it.

It is so vivid that it seems that the next moment of the person's smile will leap onto the page.

Putting the portrait on the table, Xia Yiqing began to study the ink again.

The ancestor once said to Xia Yiqing before his death, he said: "Yiqing, when your mother gave birth to you, I was more anxious than your father, and I couldn't go to my granddaughter-in-law's yard to wait, so I could only write your name in the study. You weren't born yet, and I chose your name.

Yi, raise also. In the "Book of Rites", there is 'ten years of life is called kindergarten, and twenty years is called weak crown...... A hundred years of expectation. 'When people are old, they have to rely on their children and grandchildren for food and clothing, I have a big heart, and I want to live to the end of my life, you are the eldest grandson of my Xia family, and you must support me.

Don't learn from your bastard grandfather, at a young age, he left his father, mother and daughter-in-law and the whole family, and went alone, Yiqing, you must not learn from him. ”

At that time, Xia Yiqing deserved well, he would take care of the entire Xia family, and he would do a good job of supporting the old ancestor, but in the end, the old ancestor did not live to the end of his old age, and he didn't even wait for the day he got married, and he couldn't see his child born.

Remembering that in the past, Xia Yiqing was in a trance, he picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, and wanted to learn from the ancestors to write the names of newborns.

I have been writing for a long time, but I haven't fallen in the end.

This child still has to wait for the ancestors to choose a name, and it is a blessing for the elders to give a name.

The pen was still put down.

Xia Yiqing got up and walked to the window, the window was facing east, and she could see the direction of the ear room. Pushing open the window, the coolness suddenly invaded the warm room, Xia Yiqing didn't care, he just watched the maids over there go in and out from time to time.

And Zhen Xuan's voice was high and low, but it was completely dumb.

Xia Yiqing stood by the window and waited for a long night. (To be continued......)
