Chapter 274: Jealousy

"Wow!"

A loud baby cry streaked across the night sky of the Canglang Pavilion, and Fang Yuan, who had been waiting anxiously in the courtyard outside the dormitory for almost an hour, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart fell to the ground.

The two Suzhou City doctors who were guarding outside the dormitory also wiped the sweat on their foreheads, fortunately, Governor Fang's Mrs. Yuan gave birth smoothly and there was no accident, otherwise the two of them didn't know if they could get out of the Canglang Pavilion alive.

"Crunch!"

The door of the dormitory opened, and the midwife's wife and maid came to Fang Yuan to report the good news, "Governor Fang, Mrs. Yuan gave birth to a son, and the mother and son are safe." ”

Fang Yuan looked up at the full moon in the sky, everything was so unreal, as if in a dream, he secretly muttered, "After three or four years of the Ming Dynasty, there is finally a descendant!" ”

The two doctors hurriedly said, "Governor Fang, I have prescribed a prescription for Mrs. Yuan to supplement her body during confinement, and the medicine will be delivered to the house immediately." ”

Fang Yuan endured the excitement in his heart, nodded with an impassive face, and asked Hu Qi to take one hundred taels of silver, and gave the doctor and the midwife Wen Po fifty taels of silver each.

In order to celebrate this great event, he even offered a generous reward, each male servant and maid in the Canglang Pavilion was rewarded with five taels of silver.

Five taels of silver, which is already the monthly salary of these male servants and maids for three months, everyone cheered in unison when they heard it.

Qin Zhan and Hu Qi, who were waiting with Fang Yuan, congratulated him again and again.

When Fang Yuan entered the delivery room, Xiao Yuan was extremely tired after giving birth, and lay on the bed and fell asleep. The newborn child was cared for by the maidservant, and his eyes were not yet open, and he did not make a sound, and seemed to be asleep.

This time Xiao Yuan really made a great contribution to the Fang family, Fang Yuan kissed her on the forehead with great pity, and ordered the three maids to take good care of Mrs. Yuan, and wait for the doctor's medicine to be delivered, and serve Mrs. Yuan's medicine.

The two princes, Zhu Cizhi and Zhu Cihuan, who lived in the other courtyards of Canglang Pavilion, got the news, and came to congratulate Fang Yuan one after another that night and sent a lot of congratulatory gifts.

By the next day, the news that Fang Yuan had received his noble son had spread in the Suzhou Mansion.

The government officials headed by the prefect Chen Hongmi, the Jiangnan literati led by Mao Bijiang, Xi Benzhen and Shen Xiang of the Dongting Merchants Gang, Xu Hua, the big official businessman, and the big businessmen of the Franco Chamber of Commerce also came one after another.

At the end of the whole day, the congratulatory gifts sent by everyone alone have been piled up in the room.

ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, He Shou Wu and all kinds of valuable medicinal materials for tonifying the body; Jewelry, such as agate, five-foot red coral, and large pearls of the South China Sea, are all kinds of rare and dazzling; There are also those who give gold, silver, land deeds, house deeds, and so on.

Fang Yuan's child is not worse than Jia Baoyu, who was born with a golden key in the Dream of Red Mansions.

Fang Yuan personally realized why leading cadres were strictly forbidden to hold birthday banquets and wedding banquets before the anti-corruption campaign.

On the third day, the Taihu Lake base also got the news, and Jing Jie, the commander of the Xuanjia Army, took all the high-level officers in the base such as Chigutai and hurried to the Canglang Pavilion, accompanied by Princess Kunxing, and Xu Ru, who came instead of Shi Lang, the commander of the Sea Division.

Jing Jie and Su Hongyu gave a pure gold lion card that was specially designed to protect the safety of children's evil spirits; What Xu Ru sent was Hetian Yu's unicorn lock.

When Princess Kunxing saw Fang Yuan, she asked excitedly, "Concubine, Mrs. Yuan gave birth to a son?" ”

Fang Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, it's a man." ”

"I'll go in and take a look!"

Princess Kunxing grew so big, and she had never held a newborn baby, so she rushed into Xiaoyuan's bedroom.

Xiao Yuan was drinking the medicinal soup prescribed by the doctor under the service of the maidservant, and when she saw the princess coming in, she was stunned, but she still saluted her politely.

The princess smiled at her, "Mrs. Yuan, I have a Buddhist card given to me by my mother when I was born, which has been consecrated by the master and can drive away evil spirits and bring peace." ”

She was going to pick up the newborn baby and put a Buddhist plaque on the child.

Xiao Yuan saw that she wanted to hold the child by herself, this child is Xiao Yuan's lifeblood, where did she dare to let the princess with unknown intentions approach, she struggled to get up and shouted, "Princess, you can't ...... Touching the kids. ”

Princess Kunxing wanted to pick up the child and tease her, but when she saw that Xiao Yuan's reaction was too intense, she stopped her next move and looked at her in amazement, "Why?" ”

Xiao Yuan replied to her gaze, and said with a little disguise, "The baby is too young, and with a Buddha card can't suppress righteousness, the princess's kindness is understood, so let him have a good rest!" ”

Princess Kunxing saw that her eyes were dodgy, and she was deeply guarded, so she realized that she was bored with herself, and withdrew from the dormitory with a stupid expression.

Fang Yuan saw that she rushed in, but came out sullenly, and knew that she must have had trouble with Xiao Yuan, and asked, "Princess, what's wrong?" ”

The princess pouted, "Lady Yuan is worried that I will harm the pony's son. ”

Fang Yuan was speechless, but Mama Liang, who accompanied her, was not convinced that the princess was humiliated, and scolded loudly, "Does this Mrs. Yuan understand etiquette and her identity?" She is just a concubine, and it is not hers who gave birth to a son, but the incense of the Fang family. The child should be raised by the princess as his mother. ”

She deliberately spoke loudly, and even moved out of strict feudal etiquette.

In the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, the main wife and the concubine had a strict identity boundary. The concubine born to the concubine must also be raised by the main wife, and this concubine can only call the main wife mother, and the concubine who calls the biological mother can only be called aunt, not mother.

Xiao Yuan in the dormitory could hear it clearly, her delicate body trembled with anger, and a violent cough came from the dormitory.

Fang Yuan was extremely disdainful of this kind of feudal bad habit that separated his biological mother and son, and when he saw that Xiao Yuan was so angry that he coughed, he glared at Mama Liang fiercely, and immediately entered the dormitory and went to appease Xiao Yuan.

When Xiao Yuan saw him come in, he couldn't help it anymore, and cried out with a 'wow', and whimpered, "Childe, don't send my son away, woo woo." ”

Fang Yuan caressed her hair lovingly, kissed her heavily on the forehead, and said loudly, "Xiao Yuan, your son is yours, and no one can take it away!" ”

He also deliberately spoke loudly, so that Mama Liang, who was outside the dormitory, could hear clearly, with the presence of other parties, he would never allow Xiaoyuan's mother and son to be separated.

Mama Liang is a hot temper, and she was about to hit Fang Yuantou back, but was stopped by the princess, "Mama Liang, let's say a little less!" I also don't like to bring other people's children, I like to bring my own children. ”

Although she was scolding Mama Liang with this, she was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and the spearhead was directed at Xiaoyuan.

As soon as the two women met, they were full of gunpowder, and Fang Yuan was also very helpless, so he couldn't put it down and teased the child for a while, and then gently put it down, so that the princess and Mama Liang entered together.

The princess and Mama Liang entered the dormitory and sat down at the table.

Fang Yuan said slowly, "The princess came just in time, let's name the child together!" ”

The princess is nominally the mistress of the Fang family, and at least when it comes to naming the child, Fang Yuan also has to follow the customs of the locals and respect her idea of being the hostess.

Princess Kunxing was already a little interested in this child, and said lightly, "I still don't overstep my bounds!" It's all up to the ponies. ”

Xiao Yuan took the opportunity to say, "Childe, I've already thought about it, let's call Fang Lin!" Kirin Guizi, do you say it's good? ”

Before Fang Yuan could speak, Mama Liang had already sneered coldly, "The son of a concubine, when it comes to heaven, that is, a concubine, how expensive can it be?" Taking this name, I am not afraid of the wind, flashing my tongue and breaking Yangshou. ”

Xiao Yuan heard that she was struggling with Yang Shou when she opened her mouth and closed her mouth, obviously cursing her son, and immediately lost her face, and coldly counterattacked, "Mama Liang, are you cursing this innocent child when you speak freely?" ”

Fang Yuan's face also became gloomy, he slapped the table heavily, and said sharply, "Mama Liang, if you talk nonsense again, don't go back to the Taihu Lake base, go back to the capital directly!" ”

When Mama Liang heard that she was going to be driven back to the capital, she realized that Fang Yuan was really angry, and she also knew that she was speechless, so she was so frightened that her face was bloodless, and she didn't dare to fight again.

Princess Kunxing glared at Mama Liang, causing her to withdraw from the dormitory, and said coldly, "I don't think the name Fang Lin is rich enough, it's better to be called Fang Batian, this name is domineering enough!" ”

Seeing that she was obviously deliberately raising the bar, Xiao Yuan pulled Fang Yuan and said, "Childe, where is there such a strange name for the child." ”

The two daughters kept lifting the bars to each other, and Fang Yuan could only call the shots in person, interrupting the noise of the two daughters, "Enough!" I think it's called Fang He! I just want you to remember that harmony is precious. ”

Since Fang Yuan personally made the board, the second daughter had nothing to say, and the baby's name was decided, named Fang He.
