Chapter 112: The Birth of the Firstborn
After bidding farewell to the reluctant "saber", Chen Zeyu immediately rushed to the Shijiazhuang railway station on the Jinghan Line after leaving the military academy......
On September 30, 1898, in the autumn of the Year of the Dog, Chen Zeyu's eldest son, Chen Xiangdong, was born.
In fact, since his wife Wu Xiatong was pregnant, Chen Zeyu knew that such a day would come, during this time, he walked lightly almost every day, and the whole person was excited all day long, and he was energetic in everything, and Chen Zeyu also thought that he was ready for everything, but when this day really came, the young head of state was still out of shape and almost made a joke.
The baby boy, who was born two weeks earlier than the due date, did not know that because of his early birth, his father Chen Zeyu almost fell off his horse in ecstasy.
Thanks to the gradually improving railway traffic in China, Chen Zeyu's special train has arrived at Beijing Railway Station in less than 5 hours.
For the first time, Chen Zeyu "sincerely" thanked Sun Wen, the deputy minister of the railway department who was a half-monk, if he had not insisted on building the domestic Jinghan line railway before the Longhai line, the head of the republic who was in a hurry at the moment would not have rushed back to the capital so quickly.
The transferred car had just driven into Zhongnanhai, and before Chen Zeyu's special car stopped in front of Haitian Pavilion, several huskies at home cheered and greeted him.
Several pet dogs that have not seen Chen Zeyu for many days are particularly affectionate, but Chen Zeyu will not have the heart to deal with them, and after sending the guards beside him to greet them, he almost galloped into the gate of Haitian Pavilion.
……
"Hanyin! Our child is so beautiful, you see, it doesn't look like a little angel. Wu Xiatong lay on the bed and said softly.
Holding the baby in the swaddling clothes with trembling hands slightly, Chen Zeyu looked at his son with wide eyes.
The body is slightly red, the two swollen eyelids are wrinkled, and the newborn baby is actually really good to see, but at this time, in the eyes of Chen Zeyu's father, the baby boy in his arms is definitely the most beautiful person in the world.
Chen Zeyu only glanced at it for the first time and immediately agreed with his wife's words, "Yes, he is the most beautiful angel!" ”
He knew that the expression on his face must be very bright at this time, he had a son!
The baby who was wrapped in swaddling clothes was sleeping sweetly, as if he was being held by Chen Zeyu and smashed his small mouth a little uncomfortable, which frightened his father and immediately adjusted his posture carefully.
Looking at the clumsy appearance of his young father, and the mother-in-law surrounding him, his mother almost laughed out loud.
"Hanyin, let me come......" Liang's mother-in-law carefully took over her grandson and said with a smile, "Look at this little face, the nose really looks like Tongtong when she was a child......"
"The face looks like when I was a child, and I must be a handsome guy when I grow up, hehe" Aunt Helen next to her said softly.
Several families on the side came around, and the youngest sister of the Wu family, Wu Yanhan, was naughtily stretching out her index finger and gently teasing the baby, making the sleeping little nephew very unaccustomed, but fortunately, she was finally stopped by her father-in-law Wu Miaoyuan before causing a howling cry.
"Han'er, don't make trouble!"
Wu Yanhan smiled and stuck out her tongue, and immediately ran to her sister's bedside and bit the root of her ear.
Chen Zeyu's sister-in-law just celebrated her 9th birthday last month, and is currently studying at the No. 1 National Primary School in Beijing.
"Grandma, why is Dongdong still sleeping, when will Anne be able to play with Dongdong?"
Anne, the little cousin of my uncle's family, was blinking her heels and looking at the baby in front of her with big eyes, and after looking at it for a while, she suddenly said childishly.
The mother hugged her grandson and said, "Annie, Dongdong is still young, it will take a few days to play with you......"
Little Anne nodded as if she didn't understand.
"Anne come to Mommy, good, Dongdong is your little nephew, Anne has to take care of the juniors, right?" Helen picked up her daughter on the ground, pinched her little face and smiled.
"Well, Anne will protect Dongdong." Anne's big eyes flashed and said in a crisp voice, and then she turned her head to Wu Yanhan beside the bed and said in a milky voice, "Sister Han, you are not allowed to bully Xiao Dongdong anymore!" ”
Wu Yanhan, who was chatting with her sister, immediately widened her eyes innocently.
"Hahaha......"
Chen Zeyu praised, "Anne is awesome! It's really not a shame that my brother loves you so much! ”
"Well, my brother has to love Anne all the time, and he has to buy a lot of toys for Anne, okay?" Anne nodded solemnly.
The immature words made everyone in the Haitian Pavilion laugh.
"Hahahaha......"
After everyone chatted for a while, seeing that Wu Xiatong was a little sleepy, they all said goodbye and went home one by one, Chen Zeyu asked the secretary to arrange a special car for his father-in-law and uncle, but there was no need to bother.
Sending the two families into the car one by one, and watching the car drive out of the trestle, Chen Zeyu turned around and re-entered the residence.
After accompanying his wife for a while, seeing her fall asleep, Chen Zeyu gave the maid on the side a look, and then quietly exited the bedroom after seeing the other party nod.
Walking into the newly established baby room next door, you can see the two parents who stayed behind are sitting inside and watching the child, Chen Zeyu walked to the two of them and looked at the little guy in the shaker gently.
Looking at the little little man in front of him who was still sleeping, Chen Zeyu's heart was suddenly filled with extremely complicated feelings, joy, expectation, pride, and responsibility, and for a while, the supreme head of the republic was a little stupid.
Father Chen Yanyou patted him on the shoulder, and the child who had never left his sight at the same time, sighed, "Time flies so fast, you brothers were the same size at that time, and in a blink of an eye, they all started a family one by one, hehe." ”
"In your eyes, I'm afraid we have always been children, haha" Chen Zeyu smiled.
"That's a good point, but among the brothers, you are the one who makes us worry the most" Chen Yanyou nodded with a smile and said, "Alas, the fourth child is still ...... have a family."
Chen Zeyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, at most one year, I promise to kick the old man into the church!" ”
"You, the third brother, are going to have a snack...... Don't say it, I'll stew some soup for my daughter-in-law," Mother Wu Youshan said happily, turned around and walked out with the maid beside her.
The father shook his head and smiled, "Hehe, your mother is not afraid to feed her daughter-in-law, this is the second meal." ”
"I don't know why, the family seems to like to drink the crucian carp soup cooked by my mother," Chen Zeyu said with a smile, "It's actually not a new thing......
"Yes, I remember that time when your mother cooked crucian carp soup, almost all four of you brothers would grab it, hehe," my father recalled.
As he was talking, the little guy in the shaker didn't know when he opened his eyes again, oh oh didn't know what to laugh at, and before Chen Zeyu could react, he yawned again and fell asleep, seeing the young head of the republic dumbfounded.
Father Chen Yanyou smiled, "Don't be surprised, newborn children are like this"
Chen Zeyu nodded, lay on the side of the shaker softly, and looked at the little thing again......
