Chapter 854: Li Luo
With the support of Li Shimin and the help of Liu Renliang and Xu Jingzong, although there will be some problems, they are not impossible to solve, so the affairs of the financial supervision are also progressing very smoothly.
Liu Renliang has begun to integrate the coinage bureaus in Chang'an and Luoyang and other places, although there is a lot of resistance in the local area, but Liu Renliang is like a steel knife, with the momentum of the financial supervisor, a knife will cut off all obstacles, and many people have fallen to the ground because of this, which also greatly deters local forces, so that his future integration of the coinage bureau much less resistance.
The bank at the gate of Xishifang is also being built very quickly, and it is about to be completed, and the next step is to prepare for the interior decoration, and the internal clerks of the bank are also ready, and those recruited from the private sector have been studying in the Xinzhu School for a period of time, and there should be many people who have passed the assessment in the end.
All aspects of the financial supervision are going smoothly, Li Xiu should have been very relaxed, but because of a letter from the bearded guest, it made his heart very heavy, and even for a few days he couldn't eat or sleep well, and the whole person seemed to be worried, Princess Pingyang They also asked with concern, but Li Xiu only said that he was too busy with official business, so he didn't rest well, because he didn't want his family to worry about him, not to mention that Princess Pingyang was about to give birth.
This morning, Li Xiu had breakfast and was about to go to the financial supervision office, but he didn't expect that at this time, Princess Pingyang suddenly felt discomfort in her abdomen, followed by a burst of abdominal pain, Princess Pingyang, who had already had production experience, immediately knew that she was in the moment of production, so she immediately asked people to inform the family, and Li Xiu, who had already gotten into the carriage, also hurriedly ran into the inner house.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Li family began to get busy again, but because Princess Pingyang and Yi Niang had given birth to children before, and the subordinates in the family were also prepared, they did not seem flustered, and the midwife who had already invited them into the house also began to direct the maid to make prenatal preparations.
When Li Xiu arrived at the delivery room, Xi Po had already closed the door and refused to let him in, because this time Princess Pingyang's labor pains came very quickly, and the amniotic water was broken, and it was estimated that the child would be born soon, so Li Xiu couldn't see Princess Pingyang, so he could only wait outside the door with an anxious face.
The birth of Princess Pingyang was very smooth, Li Xiu waited outside the door for about an hour, and then heard a loud cry from inside, and then saw the midwife running out with a happy face to congratulate Li Xiu: "Congratulations, the princess gave birth to a little son!" ”
"Hahahaha~, reward!" Li Xiu didn't care about his son and daughter, as long as Princess Pingyang's mother and son were safe, so he also laughed and said, and then not only rewarded the midwife, but also everyone around him was also rewarded, after all, such a big happy event, but also let the people in the house be happy together.
"I'm happy to see my husband, but now that the child is born, and it's still a boy, I don't know if my husband has chosen the child's name?" At this time, Yi Niang smiled and poured a basin of cold water on Li Xiu.
"This ......" Li Xiu also calmed down when he heard this, naming the child was the most painful thing in the world for him, and he had been very busy during this time, and he didn't have time to think about the child's name, so he didn't have any preparations now.
"Giggles, Sister Yi Niang, don't embarrass your husband, I think it's better to take a nickname, and when your husband is free in the future, it's not too late to think of a nice name!" Yuechan was smiling at this time to relieve Li Xiu, during this time Li Xiu went out early and returned late, she also saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart, and at this time she didn't want Li Xiu to be distressed by the matter of choosing a name.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's start with a nickname, after all, the child's name is very important, I heard that some families don't choose a name before the child is three years old!" Li Xiu also hurriedly said when he heard Yuechan's words, and at the same time glanced at her gratefully, or Yuechan knew that it hurt people.
"Big brother, don't make a reason if you can't think of it yourself, fortunately, I have already thought of a name for my little nephew, so I will take his name!" At this moment, I saw Qi Niang standing up with confidence, when she gave birth before, she and Yi Niang, Yuechan and others also rushed over, and several children such as Ping An Lang and Li Jin were also waiting to see the little brother.
"Qi Niang, you want to name the child?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, he really didn't expect Qi Niang to intervene at this time, and he would take such an important matter on himself.
"Of course, isn't it just a name, I've already thought of it!" When Qi Niang said this, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at Li Jin, who was fighting with her sister next to her, and then continued, "Jin'er's name was taken by the Emperor Taishang himself, Taiyuan is the land of the Tang Dynasty's Longxing, referred to as Jin, so he was named Li Jin, and the name of Jin'er's younger brother is naturally not worse than this, Luoyang, like Taiyuan, is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, so I think this child should be named Li Luo!" I saw Qi Niang talking eloquently at this time.
"Li Luo?" Li Xiu couldn't help but repeat the name in surprise when he heard this, don't say it, what Qi Niang said is reasonable, which makes this name not only good, but also very meaningful, it is indeed a rare good name.
"Okay, I didn't expect Qi Niang to have such a ability, I think Li Luo's name is good, and the princess will definitely like it!" Yi Niang's eyes lit up at this time and she praised it, and Yuechan next to her also thought that the name was good.
While he was talking, the delivery room had been cleaned up, and Li Xiu rushed in with an arrow at the moment, only to see Princess Pingyang holding the child at the head of the bed, and when she saw Li Xiu, she couldn't help but show a bright and a little tired smile and said: "Husband, come and see our child!" ”
"Xiuning, you've worked hard!" Li Xiu also hurriedly stepped forward at this time, and after speaking, he gently picked up the child from Princess Pingyang's arms, only to see that this little guy with a wrinkled face was sleeping soundly, and his little mouth was closed one by one, and he didn't know if he was dreaming?
"Sister-in-law, I have already named the child outside just now, and they all think it is good for the eldest brother, do you want to listen to it?" Qi Niang rushed in the second one after that, and as soon as she saw Princess Pingyang, she immediately asked her for credit.
"Qi Niang, your name?" Princess Pingyang couldn't help but show a surprised expression when she heard Qi Niang's words.
"Yes, the name I chose is good, and it is very meaningful, so I will call it Li Luo...... Qi Niang said and told the meaning of the name Li Luo again, but Princess Pingyang was also greatly admired after hearing it, and immediately nodded without hesitation, "It's called Li Luo's name!" ”
"Don't be in a hurry, maybe I can think of a better name in the future." Seeing that Princess Pingyang did not hesitate to set the child's name, Li Xiu said a little sour at this time, although the name made him very distressed, but as a father, he also preferred to give the child a name himself, after all, this name will accompany the child for a lifetime.
"Husband, if you have a good name, you might as well say it now, and then we will compare it, if it is really stronger than the name chosen by Qi Niang, the concubine will definitely choose you!" Princess Pingyang smiled a little teasedly at this time, she didn't believe that Li Xiu would think of any good name, not to mention that he was so busy during this time, I am afraid that he had no time to think about it at all.
"This ......" Li Xiu hesitated when he heard Princess Pingyang's words, and then said with a serious face, "I think the name taken by Qi Niang is still quite good, it is better to call this name for the time being, if I have a better name in the future, it will not be too late to change it!" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, husband, you can't change your name!" As soon as Li Xiu's words fell, Yi Niang retorted that there is indeed such a custom in Chang'an, and after a person's name is determined, it is generally easy to change, otherwise it may have a bad impact on people.
"That's it, the eldest brother likes to talk nonsense, the name of the little nephew is Li Luo, don't forget to tell him in the future that this name was given by his aunt!" Qi Niang first criticized Li Xiu, and then said triumphantly, naming her little nephew, which is also a matter of great significance to her, maybe this little nephew will be very close to her in the future.
Princess Pingyang gave birth to a son, this is not only a major event for the Li family, but also a major event that can shake Chang'an City, if it is placed in normal times, Li Xiu will definitely do a big job, but now it belongs to a special period, because Princess Pingyang is still in the filial piety period, it is impossible to hold a banquet for the child, before the eldest grandson queen gave birth to a princess, and it was also not done.
However, Li Xiu felt worthless for his youngest son, because Li Yuan was obviously still alive, but Li Luo couldn't hold a banquet when he was born, as soon as he thought of this, Li Xiu couldn't help but be full of resentment towards Li Yuan, but unfortunately Li Yuan had already gone to America by boat, with his age, it was estimated that it would be impossible to come back, and Li Xiu would never see each other again.
Although the banquet could not be held, Li Xiu still arranged the affairs of the financial supervisor, and then gave himself a few days off to accompany Princess Pingyang and Li Luo's mother and son at home. The newborn child is red and wrinkled, and looks like a big mouse, but as long as it is raised for a few days, the child will grow up like a balloon, and soon the skin will become white and tender, and the eyes will be opened, and it will look much more beautiful than before.
It's a pity that before Li Xiu could enjoy a few days of family fun at home, Zhang Shiyi suddenly came to visit on this day, nominally to visit Xiao Li Luo, but in fact he came to say goodbye to Li Xiu, after all, he was also preparing to go back to the south, and Qu Yi was also pregnant.
Li Xiu also set up a banquet for Zhang Shiyi in the hall to see him off, but after three rounds of drinking, he saw Zhang Shiyi say very solemnly: "Brother Li, I'm leaving tomorrow morning, you should have read the letter from my father to you, I don't know if there is a reply to him?" ”
