Chapter 887: Next Generation
No one noticed that when the child's voice came out, Shi Ke, who had just run out of breath outside the courtyard wall, leaned against the wall as if his whole body had lost his strength, and he was still holding a few strings of thickly coated sugar gourds wrapped in brown paper bags, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
The midwife in the room washed away the blood from the newborn with warm water, wiped it clean with a soft handkerchief, and then skillfully wrapped it in the swaddling clothes that had been prepared a long time ago, and then smiled happily and trotted out with her arms in her arms.
Shi saw that the mother-in-law came out, and then came back to her senses, supported her weak body with her arms, staggered over, and directly squeezed away the people who were surrounded by a place, and threw herself in front of the mother-in-law.
"Congratulations to the Third Young Master! It's a handsome little boy! The mother-in-law smiled.
The ladies of the family saw Shi Ke's figure at this time, and when they saw him smiling on his face, but he was obviously looking at the baby in the swaddling clothes, they didn't have the heart to blame him for not being by Peng's side at the critical moment, and laughed helplessly.
Shi Ke's mood was a little mixed. The child in the swaddling clothes couldn't say the word 'handsome', and it was so wrinkled that it was even a little ugly, but he somehow liked it tightly in his heart, and wanted to reach over and hug the little guy, but he didn't know where to start.
Looking at his somewhat clumsy movements, Shi Qingqian helplessly pushed Shi Ke: "Brother, the child must be safe, you go to see the third sister-in-law first!" The third sister-in-law is a ...... who has just given birth to a child."
"Oh yes, yes, yes...... Then, you can help me look at ...... first."
It was the first time Shi Qingqian saw his brother and was so anxious that he couldn't speak.
The eldest lady smiled at him and nodded: "Don't worry! Can you still run on your own when your child is just born? Let's go see how your lady is. ”
At this time, the house was filthy and bloody, and whether the mother-in-law was a concubine or a concubine, there were still some taboos, so several people did not enter the door to see how Peng's situation was, but seeing the midwife's face red and happy, if it was really Peng's big problem, she would not dare to reflect like this.
Later, Shi Qingqian naturally didn't know what was going on, but he knew that Shi Ke was doing quite well, and he was more gentle with Peng's words, but it was a pity that the sugar gourd was bought for nothing - just gave birth to a child, and the eldest lady did not allow Peng to eat these 'messy' things.
The subordinates helped clean up the house, and after resting on the bed for a while, Peng called the subordinates in and helped wipe them with warm water. A bowl of warm red date mutton soup went down, and Peng slept contentedly.
Speaking of which, Shi Qingqian also felt surprised, he was so tired that he couldn't drink anything after giving birth, let alone the rather greasy mutton soup, but Peng's was very appetizing, saying that "giving birth to a child has taken me too much effort, and I must make up for it."
Except for a few wails during her childbirth, Shi Qingqian really didn't think that there was anything about this person who looked like a pregnant woman who had just given birth.
The new little prince of the Hou Mansion was born, and the entire mansion was immediately busy. Shi Ke accompanied the Peng family to rest in the clean bedroom, the two of them seemed very calm, but the eldest lady and the Bai family outside were too busy.
After all, the nursing mothers and mothers-in-law who specialize in serving the confinement have already been prepared, and they have prepared several pieces of clothes for the newborn children, not to mention the others, the busiest thing is to arrange the work of Peng's confinement during this period, and to spread the news and say a few words to Peng's mother's family and relatives and friends (when the time comes, they can also prepare more when they make full moon wine).
After Peng's woke up, Shi Qingqian went to her to check her pulse again, and there was no other major problem except for weakness after giving birth, the only problem was that he was a little compassionate, and Peng's was not polite, pestering Shi Qingqian to tell her some things about eating and drinking, and asked his personal envoy to write it down one by one, and then let her go.
The old man and Mrs. Peng on the Duke's Mansion had also heard the news and rushed over, and after seeing their in-laws, they ran to see their daughter and little grandson, anyway, none of Shi Qingqian was with him, as long as he saw the two of them, he had a smile on his face.
After that, she couldn't take care of Shi Qingqian's affairs, and the eldest lady was busy greeting her in-laws' visits, and she only pinched Yao'er's little face in a moment of leisure. Fortunately...... The people of Peng Guogong's Mansion had no intention of staying for dinner, so after sending a lot of supplements to their daughter, they gave a few words of advice, and then left with people in a hurry.
Shi Qingqian sighed silently, worthy of being a general, never procrastinating and tangled in his actions and words, he really has the momentum of 'let's go'.
"Yao'er, come over and let my grandmother hug my little baby!"
After the person left, the eldest lady was deflated and half collapsed on the Taishi's chair. Yao'er obediently trotted over and let her knead her cheeks, while showing a very well-behaved and lovely expression.
"You'll go back after lunch." Holding Yao'er, the eldest lady pinched his soft little face twice and smiled.
"Huh? Mother-in-law, you're going to drive us back, can't you? Shen Shu, who was sitting next to Shi Qingqi, smiled on his face, originally everyone was talking in one place, waiting for news from the inner courtyard, until the Peng family gave birth safely, and the follow-up things were basically packed up and compromised, and then they went to the lobby together.
The eldest lady smiled and glared at Shen Shu viciously: "Of course, it's for the child in my girl's belly!" There are less than two months left, and you don't have to take her out to wander around in the future, it's just an unbearable temperament...... It's good that we didn't raise Yao'er to be a little splash monkey! ”
"Mother!" Shi Qingqian blushed and glanced awkwardly at the eldest lady holding Yao'er. It's really a grandson who is next generation to his own daughter separated by a mountain, I'm afraid that now in the eyes of the eldest lady, Yao'er is the Jiao'er at the top of her heart, and she has to be in the back row.
Shi Qingqian pretended to sigh helplessly and painfully, with a little annoyance in his movements: "Alas, my mother doesn't care about me now!" If you don't give birth, you won't give birth, and you will resolutely refuse to regenerate in the future, even if you give birth, you can't bring it to your mother anymore! ”
"Stinky girl! What kind of jealousy to eat with your own children! The eldest lady laughed and scolded a few times, causing the whole house to laugh, and with the joy of adding a grandson to the Hou Mansion, it was rare for the family to be in such a good mood.
Of course, Shi Ke and Peng's in Jiazhuyuan were equally happy.
