Chapter 284: Getting a Son
The concept of preference for sons over daughters was very serious in ancient times. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although men and women are equal now, in that era of male supremacy, if you give birth to a son to your husband, then your status will be improved a lot.
Mother is more expensive than child, that's what it means.
Shi Xuan has reached the age of not being confused this year, and under the influence of the habit of early marriage in ancient times, he now has a group of children under his knees...... But what is more helpless is that there are groups of children here, all of whom are their grandchildren.
Shi Xuan has married a total of three wives so far, and Sanfang is also very competitive, each of them gave birth to him, but they gave birth to daughters, no sons
Without a son, this means that the Shi family is going to be the last one, and his wives also understand Shi Xuan's desire for a son
But unfortunately, due to age, or maybe other factors, Shi Xuan's road to seeking a child is not visible at all, and even being pregnant at that time was a problem.
In this regard, Shi Xuan did not have any way except to secretly say a few words about the ladies' stomachs.
Although he was busy with officialdom, Shi Xuan's eagerness to ask for a son slowly cooled down after a period of time.
And at this time, it seemed that his usual fasting and recitation of Buddha had an effect, and he came home drunk ten months ago, which made Shi Xuan experience the mood of being a father
Shocked, unbelieving, beginning to accept, to the end of the madness.
After seeing his wife's belly getting bigger day by day, Shi Xuan's mood became more and more complicated
"If it's still a daughter this time, what should I do?" The worries caused by this question would haunt Shi Xuan after he returned home every day.
Expectations and fears to visit him every day, accompanied by all kinds of uneasiness around him
And today, the ten months of unrest have finally come to an end, and now everything is settled in dust.
Born, and a son!
After learning the news, Shi Xuan also wanted to go home immediately, he wanted to experience what it was like to have a son
After Fang Tang saw that Shi Xuan was restless, he was also ready to let Shi Xuan go back first, after all, the significance of such a thing as his wife giving birth to a child was too significant
At the same time, it is also because although Shi Xuan's body is staying here now, his mind has actually run back a long time ago, and there is not much need for him to continue to stay here in this situation
But Shi Xuan's kindness to Fang Tang, Shi Xuan refused
"Xia Guan is a young eunuch of the Datang Firearms Bureau, although the official rank is not high, but he is also one of the officials of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what the reason, he can't do such a heinous thing as he dared to leave!"
Shi Xuan's righteous words made Fang Tang gasp, although what he said was right, it was reasonable, and his head was the way, but for some reason, Fang Tang felt that his face hurt so much, that kind of pain was like himself, he had been slapped dozens of times, and he grinned in pain!
"Supervisor Fang, don't get me wrong, the lower official didn't say you again." After seeing Fang Tang looking at him with a complicated expression, Shi Xuan also felt as if he had said the wrong thing
But when these words came out, Fang Tang felt like he had been slapped again
"I know you don't mean that, but why do you say it? What about your moral bottom line? Eaten by a dog? ”
"Young Eunuch Shi is really a real person." Fang Tangpi praised with a smile, and after Shi Xuan, who felt guilty, heard it, he also responded
"Fang Jianzheng is not far behind."
Fang Tang: "......"
……
When the time to get off work arrived, Shi Xuan hurried towards Chang'an City like a wild horse on the loose
Looking at Shi Xuan, who was already far away, Fang Tang didn't dare to imagine what he would be like if he became a father one day.
Fang Tang thought of this at this moment, and Guo Bai's figure suddenly appeared in his mind
Thinking back that he hadn't been to Guo Bai for a long time, Fang Tang also felt that he should almost ask how the production progress of the Heart Erosion Antidote was
………
"Where's Madame?"
Shi Xuan, who returned to his mansion, asked anxiously as soon as he came back
Shi Xuan's urgent appearance was the first time that the subordinate had seen it, but thinking back to the happy events that happened in the mansion, the subordinate also expressed understanding.
"Madame is resting in the room now," the servant responded, and Shi Xuan continued to ask quickly after hearing it
"How's the kid doing? Did he cry loudly? ”
"Don't worry, the little master is very strong, and even the young lady is a little difficult to pick up."
The response of the subordinate made Shi Xuan breathe a sigh of relief, and along the way, Shi Xuan didn't know what the situation was with his unmasked son
Whether he is heavy or not, the crying voice is not loud, everything about him Shi Xuan wants to know, and the birth of this child made Shi Xuan experience the feeling of being a father for the first time at that time, and even stronger than ever this time, the reason is still that one, he is a boy
"Where's Steward Wang? Let him go to the account office and pay a hundred taels of silver, which can be regarded as a gift from the young master to you. ”
Shi Xuan's generosity made his subordinates look happy, his hard work for a year was only a few taels of silver, although Shi Xuan's one hundred taels had to be divided equally, but it would also be a lot of income in his hands.
The subordinate appeared again and again at this moment, but when he thought that he hadn't replied to Shi Xuan's words, he also quickly suppressed his thoughts and responded
"Master, Steward Wang is not in the mansion now."
"Not in the house? Then when he returns, you tell him about it."
"Yes, sir"
After the order, Shi Xuan began to meet his son for the first time, and at this time, Wang Ping, the housekeeper of his house, knelt down in a dilapidated room, ignoring the filth on the ground.
"My lord, my wife has given birth to a son and is a son, so should you release my sister as agreed?"
When Mrs. Shi Xuan was about to give birth and gave birth to a boy, Wang Ping also came to the agreed place as soon as possible, waiting for the arrival of the guards of the King of Chu.
About half an hour later, he came, and when he told him the news, Wang Ping had been anxiously waiting for him to release his sister.
"My lord, please, please let us brother and sister go!"
After Wang Ping saw that the guards were indifferent to what he said, he had a bad feeling in his heart, and in order to let his sister return safely, he immediately knelt down at this time, regardless of any face, and kowtowed hard in front of the guards
Gradually, gray stains appeared on his forehead, and his strength grew larger and larger after seeing that the guards did not reply
"Please, please, please" Each opening was accompanied by several kowtows, and just as he was about to speak for the fifth time, the pain in his neck made him never finish the words that came to his mouth
"Knock"
Wang Ping's entire body fell to the ground lazily and weakly, and after wiping the body of the long sword in his hand on Wang Ping's body a few times, the guards put it away and left here expressionlessly......... (To be continued.) )
