When Zhang Li sewed a few new quilts, Xiao Wangzhi's birthday also arrived.

Early in the morning of April 18, Han Yan rode down the mountain, first, to buy the things that would be used in tomorrow's banquet, and second, to buy things for the week.

In Han Yan's view, Xiao Wangzhi's identity determines the path he will take in the future, whether he catches Zhou or not, or what he catches, it doesn't really matter.

But since you have entered the township, it is inevitable that you will have to follow the customs.

Moreover, he didn't want Xiao Wangzhi to miss the important Zhou Rite in his life because he was on the run.

If the eldest sister has knowledge, she must also hope that Xiao Wangzhi will be like other children, and there will be no shortage of important rituals in life.

Shu Yu stayed at home to take care of Xiao Wangzhi, and by the way, he helped Zhang Li's Zhang Luo to eat for tomorrow's banquet.

Zhang Orion went to each house to borrow trivial things such as benches, tables, and dishes.

After a busy time, when everything was cleaned up, it was already the slanting sun dissolving and the clouds faint, and the afterglow was half the sky.

After dinner, the family sat around and gossiped, Shu Yu asked with a casual smile: "Brother Han, have you prepared those Zhou gifts for Xiao Wangzhi?" ”

Han Yan paused slightly, the hand on his side tightened, but he smiled casually on his face: "It's just some books, pen and ink, bows, knives and arrows and the like, things that are usually used to catch Zhou." ”

If it weren't for the fleeing exile, as the only heir of Emperor Yuanjia, Xiao Wangzhi's grasp of Zhou Li was also a jade seal, where would it be like now.

"Hmm." Shu Yu nodded, and the secret way was only these, which was much more grand than the Zhou ceremony of other children in Badger Village.

However, Han Yan's identity is not as good as theirs, so it is also appropriate.

But when he caught Zhou the next day, when he saw the calligraphy and paintings on the table, Shu Yu was still a little shocked.

The book was not originally used to teach her "Three Character Classic", but "Zizhi Tongjian"; There is also a famous green landscape painting "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" - of course, it is just an imitation of a fake, and the pen is not enough, the drawing is rough, and even its shape is difficult to paint, let alone Xiao seems to be a god.

As for bows, knives and arrows, they are common things, and every boy in Badger Village will use them when they catch Zhou.

The rest, such as the Four Treasures of the Study, are also decent and very ordinary.

Shu Yu's eyes fixed on "Zizhi Tongjian" and "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" for a while, before he looked up at Han Yan and didn't make a sound.

What is the meaning of such a carefully selected gift of grasping the week?

Xiao Wangzhi was very happy, crawling around on the table of the Eight Immortals, touching this, looking at that, he was very happy.

Every time he grabbed something, someone complimented him.

For example, if you take a sword, bow and arrow, some people will say auspicious words such as "When you are young, you will dance with guns and sticks, and when you grow up to defend your family and the country, you will definitely become a famous general in the future"; After taking the book and ink, they said, "I have been dedicated to learning since I was a child, and when I grow up in the future, I will definitely be a talented person, a rich man, and a Zaifu......

In short, no matter which one Xiaowang chooses, there will be a great future in the future.

Han Yan thanked them one by one with a smile, but he didn't take it to heart.

Catching Zhou is just an auspicious intention, as a qualified emperor, civil and military affairs are indispensable.

Xiao Wangzhi observed for a while, and finally locked his eyes on the "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", crawled over with his hands and feet, took the scroll to unfold, sat on it and clapped his little hands and giggled, obviously liking it tightly.

Han Yan's eyes lit up.

Shu Yu felt that there was nothing surprising about this.

Although this "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is a crude fake, and it is only a copy of one of them, all the continuous mountains and mountains and the vast rivers and lakes in the original painting, as well as the pavilions, cottages, water mill bridges, fishing, boating, traveling, birds, etc., are all depicted one by one, the picture is rich, and in the middle of the green and blue, the color is also brighter than the ordinary light ink landscape map, it is normal for children to like it.

It's like a color TV is better than a black and white TV.

As soon as I saw that Xiao Wangzhi chose "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", someone immediately smiled and praised: "I actually chose a painting!" It seems that Xiao Wangzhi will definitely become a master of calligraphy and painting in the future, and it is really Brother Han's lineage! ”

Everyone else laughed and chimed in.

Han Yan thanked him again and again, but he was thinking in his heart that Xiao Wangzhi knew that he was "sitting on the country" at a young age, and he would definitely be able to "draw" the peaceful scene of the Great Zhou Dynasty with his own hands in the future!

Suddenly, a wave of pride and ambition gushed out from my heart, and it seemed that no matter how many frosts and thorns there were, there was nothing to fear.

……

Until the banquet was dispersed, the surging heroic feelings in Han Yan's chest did not dissipate.

"Thank you Uncle Zhang, aunt, and Sister Shu Yu for organizing this birthday banquet for Xiao Wangzhi." Han Yan bowed his hand and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"You're welcome!" Zhang Orion raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Although we are not a family, we are better than a family!" Between my own family, thank you like this, how angry! ”

Han Yan smiled and said yes again and again.

On the side, Zhang Li took out a red envelope and handed it to Xiao Wangzhi, who was sleeping and yawning in Shu Yu's arms.

"You can't do that, auntie." When Han Yan saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "I already have a lot of favoritism for you, how can I let you break the bank again." ”

"What's the cost? This is for Xiao Wangzhi, not for you! Zhang Li raised his hand to avoid Han Yan's obstruction, and pretended to be displeased and said, "Xiao Wangzhi is one year old, and we as elders give a red envelope to 'press the year' to express our hearts, isn't this what it should be?" ”

As he spoke, he was about to stuff the red envelope into Xiao Wangzhi's hand again.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Han Yan wanting to stop him, Zhang Li simply raised his head and glared, set up a shelf to make a killer move, and said, "Unless, you don't treat us as a family." Then I'll put this red envelope away! ”

Han Yan was most afraid of this move, and when he heard the words, he could only give in as usual.

"Then thank you for your kindness." Han Yan smiled helplessly, seeing that Zhang Li handed the red envelope to the sleepy little Wangzhi's arms, he hurriedly taught, "Wangzhi, quickly say 'thank you'." ”

Xiao Wangzhi, who was stunned, glanced up at Han Yan, muttered and thanked him indistinctly, his little hand squeezed the red envelope loosely, and he didn't even have time to open it and take a look, so he couldn't support it and closed his eyes, and fell asleep deeply.

I'm so tired after playing all morning......

Don't make any noise, let him get a good night's sleep!

Looking at Xiao Wangzhi, who was obediently nested in a small group in Shu Yu's arms, quiet and beautiful, everyone couldn't help but smile, and the tone of their speech was unconsciously lowered a lot.

"Put him on the kang and put him to sleep." Zhang Li chuckled, and as he spoke, he went to tie up the curtain first.

Shu Yu smiled and nodded, hugged the sleeping Xiao Wangzhi, and entered the west room lightly.

Time flies so fast, and before I know it, the weak and thin little baby has grown into such a strong and intelligent appearance as it is now.

Just thinking about it, my heart is as soft as a cloud in the spring breeze, ironing and gentle.
