Chapter 5 People are in good spirits at happy events

The Zhao family has not added a male to the mansion for a long time, and Zhao Xiaozhao's birth is a great joy for the entire Zhao family.

At the moment of birth the night before, Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Kuangmei wanted to see the newborn baby. Because in ancient times, men were respected and women were inferior, when women gave birth, they felt that women gave birth to children and the filth was too heavy, and men could not enter the delivery room, and it was unlucky to see red blood, because the ancients superstition said that men entered the room, afraid that the men in the family would be affected, and there would be a bloody disaster in the home.

Therefore, on the night of childbirth, men are not allowed to enter the delivery room.

So the next morning, I couldn't resist my curiosity, and after the two got up, they washed up briefly, and hurried to the backyard after breakfast.

"Who's out there?"

"Sister-in-law, it's me and Kuangmei, we're coming to see the children." Zhao Kuangyi said outside, and Zhao Kuangmei next to him directly pushed the door open and entered.

A few hours after he landed, Zhao Xiaozhao woke up from the chaos as if he had been asleep for centuries, in fact, he was woken up by the sound of the door being pushed open.

"It turned out that the third uncle and the little uncle were here! It's windy outside, come in. Zhao Heshi, who was lying on the bed, said.

"What a cute boy, you see he looks really like his brother and sister-in-law!" Zhao Kuangyi picked up his nephew from the maid next to him and looked at it carefully, Zhao Kuangyi was still a little boy at this time, not the black-bellied man in the future.

And Zhao Kuangmei next to her couldn't hold back her curiosity, and also came to Zhao Kuangyi's side, "Third brother, I also look at the child born by the second sister-in-law." ”

Zhao Guangmei saw the baby in the third brother's arms, and said with a pout: "The child is so ugly, not beautiful at all......"

"Ache...... Who's talking bad about me? At this time, Zhao Xiaozhao, who was in Zhao Kuangyi's arms, heard this sentence and expressed strong protest, so he cried.

"You little monkey, say that the child is ugly, look at the child crying......" Zhao Kuangyi couldn't wait to go up and beat the little brother at this time, but he was still holding the child in his arms, so he hugged the child to the maid next to him.

Zhao Kuangyi knocked the fourth brother on the head, "You were also wrinkled when you were born...... Ugly to death. ”

"Is the child hungry? Or is it wet? Zhao Kuangyi asked the maid Yuan'er.

Yuan'er looked at the child's condition, he didn't get wet, and Fang Cai had already fed Naishui, so he coaxed the child in his arms, "My little person, grow up quickly!" Obediently, oh oh oh! Then hearing a woman's voice, Zhao Xiaozhao began to stop crying.

Seeing that the child in Yuan'er's arms stopped crying, Zhao Kuangmei stretched out her arms and wanted to go up and hug her, "The child won't cry, the second sister-in-law will let me hug ......"

"Kuangmei, will you hold the baby?" The third brother next to him, Zhao Kuangyin, expressed great doubts.

"Who said I wouldn't......"

"Hold for a while."

Zhao Kuangmei took the child from Yuan'er......

"Nephew is ......" Zhao Kuangmei also coaxed the child like Yuan'er, patting the child's side with her little hand.

Maybe Zhao Kuangmei's action range was too large, and the child in her arms woke up, waving her little arms and legs and twisting uneasily in Zhao Kuangmei's arms. Zhao Xiaozhao listened to the voice of a little boy around him at this moment, and tried his best to open his eyes, but it was dark all around, and he couldn't do it no matter how hard he tried, but he couldn't open his eyes, but he could still vaguely hear some surrounding sounds.

After a long time, I just gave up.

With a snort, Zhao Heshi on the bed laughed when he heard his little uncle's words.

"Poof, little uncle, how can you hold the child like this, you see that the child has been woken up by you!"

"Sister-in-law, don't make fun of Kuangmei, I haven't held a child yet! I don't know if it's like this. ”

"Actually, you're a kid too!" Usually, Zhao He always jokes with his little uncle.

"Yes, sister-in-law! I--I was embarrassed by my sister-in-law. Zhao Kuangmei smiled shyly and embarrassedly.

"Where is this! How are men and women talking! What sister-in-law and uncle, and how do I feel like being held in my arms, who am I lying in, it's so uncomfortable. Zhao Xiaozhao let out a series of sighs, thinking inexplicably in his mind.

"I remember that I didn't fall off the stone wall, did they take me to the hospital, I'm not dead now, but how do I feel very tired, did I bleed a lot, I didn't have any strength at all, how was my injury? Uh-" Zhao Xiaozhao yawned, and then began to sleep again under his heavy eyelids.

"Well, I don't know if Bianliang knows?" Zhao He looked forward to the news arriving in Bianliang as soon as possible.

Zhao Kuangyi heard what the second sister-in-law said and replied: "Sister-in-law, the people in the house have hurried to Bianliang City, and at this moment, my father and brother must have heard the good news." ”

"Yes! Really? Then I'm relieved. The woman on the bed agreed, perhaps thinking of the past, thinking of the child who died young, Zhao He coughed heavily, and hoped that the child could grow up peacefully, unlike his eldest brother.

……

At that time in ancient times, the news from Luoyang to Bianliang was snatched quite quickly!

About noon, in Bianliang City, a hundred miles to the east, after a night and a half of fast horses, Zhao Hongyin and Zhao Kuangyin on the Zhao Mansion in Bianjing finally waited for the news.

In the end, the news is important, Zhao Xin followed a few guards, and the group was out of breath, holding their breath, and the pig liver face, which was as red as Guan Gong, quickly rushed to the Zhao family's mansion in Bianliang City.

Chariot chariot, Ma Xiaoxiao-

When the guards of the Zhao Mansion saw Zhao Xin and the guards in front of him, plus the big things that the lord and Erlangjun had been talking about in the mansion in the past few days, they probably guessed something.

"It's a big deal--go and inform the master and Erlangjun, the young lady is born...... ...... born," and the guards hurried to the main hall.

At this time, Zhao Hongyin and Zhao Kuangyin were both in the hall, and the two were chatting in the hall just after lunch, when they saw the guards at the door come in to pray.

"Master, Erlangjun, Zhao Xin just came from Luoyang's house, I'm so happy! Young lady, mother and son are safe! This is a family letter, and my subordinates are happy to the two adults! After speaking, he handed the letter to Zhao Hongyin.

"It's wonderful! Mother and son are safe, go to the housekeeper with Zhao Xin and them to receive the reward! Zhao Hongyin waved his hand, and the guard fartfully begged for a reward.

People are in good spirits at happy events, this sentence is true.

For the elderly in their fifties, the most important thing is to be able to enjoy their grandchildren at home and share the joy of family life in their old age. This grandson was too pleasantly surprised for his old man, and he had had one earlier, but it was a pity. But now that the mother and son are safe, Zhao Hongyin hopes that his grandson can grow up safely and inherit the Zhao family's family business as soon as possible.

"Li Yuanchang, go and inform the people in the house to hurry up and buy some gifts and dishes, and I will treat my relatives and friends to a good meal in the evening."

"Yes! Master! ”

"Dad, I'm going to take a walk around the city now and see what is suitable for the kids?" Zhao Kuangyin left the mansion and walked towards the market with two guards.

The market is some distance from Zhao's mansion, and Zhao Kuangyin will definitely not go to these places in person on weekdays, but today's news is too gratifying, Zhao Kuangyin has a son, and he has to go there himself anyway.

The banks of the Bianhe River are densely populated, and there are many houses, all over the tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, silk villages, hotels, butcher shops, temples, public houses and so on. They were piled high and low next to each other, and every now and then you could see smoke wafting from the chimneys of the houses, and the smell of life made people almost drunk. On the streets, all kinds of merchants, scholars, eunuchs, and tourists shuttle through the crowded crowd. Shinong industry and commerce, three religions and nine streams, everything, can be described as very lively.

Across the Bianhe River is a large-scale wooden arch bridge, which has an exquisite structure and beautiful form. In the poet's pen, it is like a flying rainbow, so it is called "Hongqiao", and the symbolic building in Bianjing may be none other than it.

Zhao Kuangyin and his entourage walked across the bridge, and they caught a glimpse of the merchant ships coming and going from the north to the south sailing on the Bianhe River, listening to the shirtless slender man humming the horn vigorously, and they were pulling the rope along the riverbank. However, this is rarely seen thousands of years later.

The street market in Bianliang City is always the most lively, and the streets are lined with small vendors.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this rattle?"

"This military master, this one is three cents a piece, and the one over there with a good-looking style costs ten cents a piece."

"Alright, give me the best! That paper kite, bamboo dragonfly...... All children's homes are the same! ”

Zhao Kuangyin took the items to be purchased and said, "How much money are these things worth in the store?" ”

"Good class, military master! A total of three taels and three dollars! ”

"This is five taels of silver, don't look for it" Zhao Kuangyin took out a good ingot of broken silver from the guard.

"Thank you, Master Jun, Master Jun will come next time!" The shopkeeper smiled and accepted it.

After walking around the market, the three of them were carrying all kinds of children's supplies in both hands, but Zhao Kuangyin originally planned to buy some children's supplies, but his hands couldn't be freed at all.

Zhao Kuangyin and the three of them were about to return home, when they saw a burly man walking over on the side.

"Brother Zhao, you are carrying big bags and small bags, what are you doing here?" Then he looked at Zhao Kuangyin and the guards around him, and the three of them were full of things for children, "Is it my sister-in-law!" It's a boy or a girl! ”

"Keep your word, your sister-in-law gave birth to a little Langjun with a handle for my eldest brother. Your kid has just been promoted to the Marquis of Yu, the personal guard of the forbidden army, and I wanted to inform you later, but this is not just right, I have already informed Cao Bin's other brothers, and we will go to my brother's house for a drink together in the evening, and the brothers will have a good gathering and have a lively and lively atmosphere! Zhao Kuangyin smiled.

"Congratulations, brother! I can't help this rough man, brother, you can divide the things for me! Shi Shouxin said.

"You broken stone!" Zhao Kuangyin sneered, "Let's go to my brother's house together!" ”

"Then the little brother is respectful, it is better to obey his fate!" Shi Shouxin arched his hand, but the pretended appearance even made him feel funny.

In the evening, the Zhao Mansion in Bianjing was very lively, and the family and guests were all happy, all celebrating the old Zhao family having a grandson. That day, Lao Zhao and Xiao Zhao were drunk.
