Chapter 445: Three Days of Washing (2)
"Your Majesty has arrived, and Niang Niang has arrived." Seeing that the time to wash the third was coming, there was a loud announcement from the subordinates outside, it seems that Li Er and the eldest grandson came in time, otherwise it would not be so coincidental.
Yang Heng, and even a group of visitors, welcomed Li Er in together.
"Xuewen, what about my grandson?" As soon as the eldest grandson came in, he spoke, "Niangniang, please come here with the minister." There was no way, Yang Heng had no choice but to send the eldest grandson into the room where Changle was again.
"Everyone, come together, and the three baptisms will begin soon." Because this is winter, as a child's baptism, the child naturally can't be taken out of the house, no matter how strict the various warm facilities are, Yang Heng is not willing to take this risk, after all, the medical treatment in this era is still not possible, so it is directly placed in the middle of the house where Changle is resting, and this middle room is large enough.
"I have seen the queen mother, please forgive my son for not being able to get up." Changle is about to fight. "Ah, good girl, sit down, sit down, the queen mother is not the kind of unreasonable person, this is my little grandson, look at these eyes, they are really bright, just like the good girl when you were a child?"
"Ah, the queen mother, the concubine has been waiting for a long time, and I haven't seen this doll open her eyes, as soon as the queen mother arrived, she opened her eyes, it seems that the queen mother's face is still big." Just now, when the eldest grandson came in, all the ladies wanted to salute, and the eldest grandson stopped them directly, so now they spoke, but this yang heng really doesn't know when his son woke up, is it really as these ladies said, but. Look at Changle's eyes. It seems to be true. I saw that his son was staring, only looking at the eldest grandson, and I didn't know if he really saw it or not, but it was said that the newborn couldn't see far at first, so Yang Heng preferred to believe that it was a coincidence.
"Alang. Whether to start the three baptisms of children now. At this time, a stable woman came in and saluted Yang Heng and asked.
"Cheng, it's okay, Niangniang, ladies, let's all go out too." So, everyone walked out with Yang Heng, although there were not too many people, and it was not such a room that could sit down, so. Everyone stood and watched, and then again. This ceremony was not long, and everyone had a blessing here, so they stood.
When everyone began to find a seat in the room, in the middle of the room, there was already a large copper basin where it was placed, and even there was some hot water in the basin, and there were some medicinal herbs in it, these medicinal materials are some medicinal materials that are beneficial to the child's body, and it is okay to put some when the child takes a bath.
And now it is the baptism ceremony that starts before lunch, that is to say, when the baptism is over, everyone eats again, so as to avoid the harassment of some drunks, and also let all the visitors see today's little master, that is, Yang Heng's son.
According to the description in some novels in his previous life, Yang Heng has slowly plumped up this baptism ceremony over the years, first of all, before the baptism of the three ceremonies, the main family should prepare a variety of items for washing three purposes, such as, picking umbilical hairpins, pot cloth, dim sum, millet gold and silver bills, etc., these, also based on Yang Heng's conjecture, and some people followed up with ideas, so they slowly made up for it, to be honest, Yang Heng really hadn't seen the baptism three rituals in his previous life, but he had seen it from the novel, the description in the novel, But you may not be able to truly understand whether the real thing is right or wrong.
Besides, the people who baptize the three rites, generally speaking, are just some of the nearest relatives of their own family, but today, Yang Heng's family is not a matter of relatives, but a lot more people, that is to say, today this Wen Po who does the Baptism Three Rites will receive a lot of property, however, this Wen Po receives so many things, it should be, why, because this Wen Po is one of the two god-level technology of the Yang family, so, some people will deliberately give more, in fact, this is for Wen Po, and a gift for Yang Heng, Everyone has already brought them and handed them over to the butler and his subordinates who are welcoming the guests today.
"Here, our little master is coming out." Wen Po shouted inside, and directly hugged Yang Heng's son out naked, and then came to the edge of the copper basin, tested the temperature of the water with her hands, and then slowly put the doll into the basin, held it with her hand, let the doll sit inside, and began her washing ceremony.
However, at this time, Wen Po is no longer called Wen Po, but called the birth of Grandma, in fact, to say that the three washes began, in the admission of Grandma, just after asking Yang Heng, it began, in the outhouse, that is, in the room where everyone stands, the Admission Grandma has begun to offer what to give birth to Niangniang, send the child Niangniang and other thirteen gods, as well as a variety of worship things, and even some things dedicated to washing, after the admission of Grandma worship, it is to take the doll out, and then put it in the basin, and then, Some important family members began to add pots first, that is, they each poured some water into the basin, and put some copper coins, gold and silver, etc., but the rules of the Yang family are that the unity is a special silver bill, however, these are not placed in the basin, but in the groove on the edge of the basin, that is, what Yang Heng thought, in order to be clean, not to let these things come into contact with children, naturally, there are also some lychees, red dates, peanuts, chestnuts and other happy fruits, this is a must, in order to please.
Then the visitors added pots to it, and these were all rich, all of them were made of gold bills, and some of them were made of gold beans, and when the pots were added. The midwife's grandmother also began her ceremony, stirring it into the basin with a mallet, and said: "One stirring, two stirring and three stirring, the elder brother leads the younger brother to run, seventy children, eighty children......" After such a fuss, the doll began to cry, however, this crying is a good thing, called the ringing basin, which is an auspicious thing, and then continue to wash, continue to chatter, what, wash your hair first, be a prince, etc., there is no taboo here, because the washing of thousands of households is the same sentence, and they have formed a fixed etiquette, And the most important thing in this is to bathe the child, that is, the first bath after the birth of the child, in some of the etiquette formulated by Yang Heng, it is mainly based on this wash, and the others are regarded as a performance for the guests, and even give the main family a centering fruit.
The next step is for the maid to walk around in front of the visitor with the doll in her arms, and then to return the doll to his mother, and this ritual is truly completed.
"Your Majesty, uncles and uncles, and brothers, let's take a seat." All the male visitors went to a living room under the leadership of Yang Heng, while all the female dependents stayed in this room, accompanied by the old lady and aunts.
It should be said that Yang Heng's baptism ceremony this time is the most perfect one, why do you say that, first of all, these female dependents enter the room of Changle and the doll, when they enter the main room, they will take off their coats, and they have left the cool air brought from the outside on the coat and put it into a separate room, when they enter the inner room, they have no cool air on their bodies, that is, they have no impact on the baby, and Changle who is still confined.
And when the third is washed, all the people are watching the ceremony, that is to say, all the male guests have already raised the temperature of their bodies in a room, even if they pass through a courtyard, they will not soon have a cool air, so in the winter of the three washing ceremony, no matter who can make any bad influence on the doll, and the other is the three baptism rites before eating, so no one has any taste of food on their bodies, the smell of wine, they are very clean, so, everything, It is the safety and health of the baby, and the etiquette should not be lost before the visitor.
Therefore, in Yang Heng's previous life, in the three baptismal rites of thousands of years, will there be many accidents, and this etiquette designed by Yang Heng today will definitely not have anything happening, Yang Heng is very satisfied. (To be continued......)
