Chapter 2: Speak up

Spring is blooming, and everything is recovering. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe sun is shining on the earth, the grass is long, the bright red flowers are blooming, and the branches of the trees have sprouted. You can smell the scent of flowers everywhere. Yellow rape flowers, golden spring flowers; Red azaleas, and a touch of peach blossoms. Those tender yellows, novel greens, light pinks, elegant whites... Those green branches, the warm sun, the moist earth......

Today the house is very lively, and many people come. Zhang and Han's family members and friends, Zhang Baili's brothers, classmates, friends, and business partners gathered together, which can be said to be full of friends. Such a grand ceremony is for the first birthday of the little guy Zhang Taiji. When my daughter was one year old, I didn't do it like that.

Originally, I couldn't be sure of Zhang Taiji's birthday, but when I brought it, I was only wrapped in a brocade quilt, and there was only a jade pendant engraved with unknown patterns on my body, and there was nothing else! It is estimated that it is about the beginning of March, and it is impossible to determine the exact time of day. In desperation, the husband and wife specially asked someone to go to Laoshan Taiqing Palace to seek an auspicious day, so that the beginning of March must be Zhang Taiji's birthday. For this reason, he also made a grand wish to Taishang Laojun, and it will cost a lot of silver taels to restore it in the coming day. As long as the children are healthy and grow up safely, the couple feels that it is worth spending money.

The auspicious time had arrived, and Zhang Taiji was carried into the lobby by Mrs. Han and gently placed on the carpet made of wool. On the carpet are scriptures, pens, wooden swords, abacus, ingots, wine glasses, food, puppets, official seals and other items representing different meanings. If the child catches the seal first, it means that when he grows up, he will take advantage of the grace of heaven and prosper; If you grasp the stationery first, it indicates that it will be studious when it grows up, and there will be a splendid article, which can be three yuan and the first; If you grasp the abacus first, you will be good at financial management when you grow up, and you will become a Taozhu career. If a girl grabs sewing utensils such as scissors and rulers or cooking utensils such as shovels and spoons, it indicates that she has grown up to be good at housework. On the contrary, if the child grabs food and toys first, although the elders are unhappy, they cannot dismiss it as "delicious" and "playful" on the spot, but should say that "when the child grows up, he must have a good mouth and be good at having fun in time......"

Zhang Taiji naturally understood the implication, so he was not in a hurry to catch it. He looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him, some people instructed him to grab the pen, and some people pointed to him to grab the official seal............ He looked around and set his eyes on his father Zhang Baili's face! Zhang Baili looked at his cute appearance and smiled. But in the blink of an eye, his smile froze, and then his mouth opened in surprise!

I only heard Zhang Taiji shouting in a small mouth: "Daddy" and turned his head to Han Yue'e and shouted: "Mother"!

These two shouts shocked everyone present! The scene was instantly quiet, and the pins fell could be heard. Zhang Taiji occasionally screamed hoarsely before, but he had never spoken so clearly and clearly! Besides, he is too young, Ling'er is a few months older than him, and he can't speak clearly, and no one understands one or two words! There is such a clear and accurate wording!

Everybody, you look at me, I look at you with disbelief! It's incredible, isn't it? I haven't heard of a one-year-old baby being able to speak! I must have heard it wrong! Before everyone could react.

"Father, are these for me?" Another childish child's voice came out......!!!

Now the people present are blown up!

"It's true, that's right! It's true, that's right! What a child this kid is! I heard it clearly this time, and it was amazing to say so many words at once. My son can't call him daddy when he's three years old......"

All the guests were amazed, and Zhang Baili suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Zhang Taiji: "Bao'er, do you want all these things?" "Bao'er is Zhang Taiji's milk name

"Yes, Daddy. I'm going to play with my sister. Zhang Taiji said seriously.

"Haha, good! Good! Good! These are all for you" said hello three times in a row, Zhang Baili laughed and agreed, looking very excited?

At this time, the old man Han who was sitting on the main seat stood up. took out a pearl the size of a pigeon's egg from his arms, smiled at Zhang Taiji and asked, "Little Bao'er!" Know who I am? I'll give it to you if you get it right."

Hearing Old Man Han's words, Zhang Taiji hesitated slightly, and then respectfully kowtowed to Old Man Han. At the same time, he said: "My grandfather is above, and my little grandson has seen my grandfather." Thank you grandfather for the reward. "Coordinated movements, respectful demeanor with childish eyes, a little adult look!

"Okay, good, what a sensible baby! Come on, come on, take the ......" Old Man Han was happy and said hello three times in a row, and handed the pearl to Zhang Taiji. Don't forget to pinch his fat little face twice!

Mrs. Han has always been in poor health and usually doesn't come out much. I am happy today, too. Sitting on the chair, he greeted Zhang Taiji: "Bao'er, Bao'er, come and show your grandmother"

Hearing this, Zhang Taiji trotted towards Mrs. Han. If you walk too fast, you don't cry if you fall, get up and keep walking! It's funny, it's indescribably cute. He walked up to the old lady, hugged the old lady's leg and said, "Grandmother give me a gift, give me a gift." ”

When children reach the age of one year, it is also a custom for elders to give gifts. But other people's families must have been collected by their parents! Who can have Zhang Taiji so naughty? Asking for it yourself?

Old Lady Han took a golden longevity lock from the maid's hand, and asked softly in a fake angry voice on her face: "Why did you see your grandfather making a big gift, but when he came to me, he directly asked for a gift?" ”

"My grandfather is majestic, and I am afraid to see him! My grandmother is kind, I feel close when I see you, so I am not formal" Zhang Taiji blinked his eyes and replied innocently.

"You little monkey, your little mouth is very sweet and well-behaved."

"I'm a little Bao'er, not a little monkey. The baby monkey is in a cage! Zhang Taiji continued to be coquettish and cute.

The Zhang family has eight brothers and sisters, five boys and three girls, Zhang Baili is the eldest in the family, and his parents have both passed away. Since Zhang Baili has been living in the Han family since marriage, Zhang Taiji is not very familiar with his aunt and uncle.

When I saw Mr. Han and Mrs. Han, they all gave gifts. Friends and family also sent gifts of different values. Of course, Zhang Baili did not refuse to come, accepted all the orders and took Zhang Taiji to introduce them one by one, and thanked the elders for their rewards!

After thanking him, Zhang Baili ordered the banquet to start, everyone sat down, and the dishes came up like water. Four cold vegetables crispy walnuts, boiled cloud beans, honey jujubes, fan noodles bamboo shoots. Six hot dishes braised pork trotters, steamed live fish, celery and shrimp, roast duck with fruit wood, baked noodles with carp, and stir-fried vegetables with three threads. Ten dishes on one table are perfect, and these dishes are all prepared by local celebrity chefs.

The wine is the best Jimo old wine. Jimo Laojiu is one of the classical Chinese liquors, a treasure among rice wines, and its brewing history can be traced back to more than 2,000 years ago, and there are official records that it was first brewed in the Northern Song Dynasty. Its flavor is unique, nutritious, the wine color is reddish-brown, the cup is not overflowing, crystal pure, mellow and refreshing, it has the effect of relaxing muscles and invigorating blood, replenishing qi and nourishing the spirit, and has won the praise of ancient and modern celebrities.

At this time, most of the alcohol was not high, about the same as the current beer. That's why there are 100 poems by Li Bai, and the restaurant in Chang'an City sleeps. And drink like a long whale sucking a hundred rivers, holding a cup of music and calling the sage. This heroic drinking verse appears.

At the banquet, everyone pushed their glasses and changed their glasses, and the atmosphere was warm. Old man Han is not good at drinking when he is old, and the toast at each table naturally falls on Zhang Baili's head......

Zhang Taiji was carried back to the room by Mrs. Han early, today he is in the limelight, I believe that it will not be long before the news that the Zhang family has a prodigy will come! Maybe someone added oil and vinegar to it, and I don't know what it will become. These are all carefully considered by Zhang Taiji, and with his advanced knowledge accumulation, the name of a prodigy is still deserved.
