Chapter 345, giving birth to a daughter
When the guests of the Yang family were leaving, unexpectedly, Shurui and Shuyan led Yongzhang to block the door, and said to the two children: "Little brother, you seem to have forgotten to leave the things in your hands, this is my younger brother Yongzhang's favorite, he is still young, if he will not see these for a while, he will cry." ”
When the two adults heard this, they were immediately a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I was negligent for a while, I forgot, I forgot." With that, he hurriedly asked the two children to take their things out.
"Don't forget a few more in your pocket." Shuhiko added.
As soon as the guests left, Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Yongzhang doesn't even want to eat well without these toys, I don't know how to speak, I didn't expect our Shurui to be quite powerful, and I know who is near and who is far." ”
"Shurui is like when I was young, my nephew is like an uncle, I protected you like that when I was a child." Zifu said with a smile.
Everyone made a few amusement words, but they didn't take it to heart.
After Ziqing got home, she asked Shurui: "Rui'er, why did you think of asking for those things for Yongzhang's little brother?" ”
"Mother, that was originally Yongzhang's little brother, grandma didn't say, the little brother left those, even the food is not fragrant, I saw my grandmother and the third uncle always look at those wood carvings, but embarrassed to speak, think about it, grandma and the third uncle also want to stay, since you adults are embarrassed to speak, we children can only speak. Didn't my mother also say that we are all a family, and we must help and love each other. Shurui said.
Ziqing was about to praise Shurui's carefulness, but she didn't expect Shuyan to say: "Mother, I really don't understand you adults, it's obviously your own things, and they were snatched away by others, and they are embarrassed to ask for it back." Could it be that when someone came to the door to ask for something from our family, my mother obviously didn't want to give it, so she didn't squeak and take it with him? ”
Ziqing was stunned when she heard this, she hadn't done this before, and she obviously didn't want to give it. But because of face and reputation, people still take advantage of it.
"Then what should I do according to you?" Ziqing asked.
"If you want to give, you can give, if you don't want to give, you won't give. It's as simple as that. Shuyan hurriedly said.
"It depends on the situation, however, I think that when it is time to refuse, we must also refuse, if we will not refuse, over time, will it not promote the greed of others?" Shurui said.
Ziqing really didn't expect it. Such a simple truth can be said from the mouths of two children, which shows that sometimes his two lives are not as clear as his two children.
On this day, because Kangzhuang was preparing for spring ploughing, Zifu and Zixi followed Lin Kangping to Zhuangzi and visited Kangzhuang's workshop.
At dinner, Zifu said to Ziqing: "Qing'er, I think you can buy a few more pieces of wasteland to grow some potatoes and sweet potatoes." That has a large yield, and you can expand your workshop. I mean to open a few more now, and you can also open it in the capital. After a few years, everyone will understand that after all, there is no technical content, and it is similar to making rice noodles. ”
Ziqing thought for a while and said, "Big brother, why don't you open one in Changzhou, really, you also know that there is no technical content, and there is also a little four, and you can also open one in the capital." Now there are potatoes and sweet potatoes everywhere. I can't keep myself busy, and besides, I can't earn enough money, so I have other ideas. ”
"I'm not going to open it, I'm just busy with the glass factory, and the glass factory is busy. I have enough money for a year. If you don't let the eldest brother, second brother, and third brother open it, you can open it in your own village in the capital, and you don't have to let it go to me. Zixi said.
"My school can also make us barely survive, and the income of the restaurant, my annual expenses are enough, plus the dividends of the glass factory, I can also buy some fields and shops for a few children to keep, otherwise, I don't bother to worry about it, with this energy, I might as well practice calligraphy." Zilu said.
"Second brother, do you still practice calligraphy? Your handwriting is good enough, by the way, second brother, you can help me write a picture of "The Story of Yueyang Tower", I see that the eldest sister's study also hangs several of your words, which is still a bit interesting. Zixi said.
"Okay, you have to like it, I have a lot of study, and I don't do anything else at home this New Year, just writing." Zilu said.
"Little Er, why don't you open a shop, sell books, sell calligraphy and paintings, you see, the students you teach also want to buy books, right? Your words can be sold for a few taels of silver, right? Big brother thinks it's really good, a little bit of style, it can be seen that you are more talented than me in writing, of course, it is inseparable from your hard work. Zifu said.
"The second brother can also open it, I will also do some carving, put it in the second brother's shop and sell it on consignment, and also earn a few pocket money to try, as for buying wasteland to open a workshop, I don't have this mind now, let's talk about it after I finish the exam." Zishou said with a smile. In his spare time from reading, he would pick up a carving knife and change his mind.
Zilu hesitated a little when he heard this, and asked, "Wouldn't it take a lot of energy, and I can take care of the school?" ”
Ziqing thought for a while and said: "Second brother, why don't you frame the written words and put them in the lobby and private room of the restaurant, in this way, not only will it enhance the taste of your restaurant, but some guests who like to be elegant and intellectual will want to buy it when they see it, so that you don't have to open a shop alone, as for the works of the junior, they can also be placed in the private room or lobby, but the things are sold, and the guys are just a few pennies of hard work, isn't it better than opening a single shop?" Horizontal and vertical you are also just playing, so there is no pressure and utilitarianism, maybe the words written are even stronger? Ziqing said.
"Qing'er's method is good, and it is more suitable for Xiao Er." Zifu reacted first and said. Zilu really has no talent for business, and there are too many chores involved in opening a single shop.
"I also think my sister's method is good, I listen to my sister." Zilu was also busy, Ziqing's status in Zilu's heart has always been not low.
Shen and Zeng Ruixiang listened to it and smiled with satisfaction, at their age, what could be more gratifying than watching their children help each other, be friendly and beautiful?
On the third day of the first month of March, Ziyu gave birth to a son, and the Xia family set up a banquet for two days, except for Ziqing, they all went to the banquet, and the Shen family came back and said that Mrs. Xia really loved Ziyu as her own family this time, and Ziyu was also a blessing.
On March 15, Ziqing moved into Nuanxiangyuan to give birth, on the first day of April, Ziqing finally gave birth to a girl in everyone's expectations, on the second day of April, from Xia's house after eating full moon wine, Zifu Zixi and Lin Kangping left together, and the filial piety ended.
As soon as Lin Kangping left, the Shen family was going to move into Qingyuan, Ziqing was worried that the Shen family was too tired, and the Yang family's child was only more than half a year old, and he couldn't do without people over there, so he said that this was his fifth confinement, and there were so many maids and women at home. When Shen heard this, he had to give up, and turned his head and arranged for someone to pick up Ziyu and go back to his parents' house to live for a few days and change the child's nest.
Five days later, Ziqingsheng's little girl grew a little bigger, her skin was pink, her little eyes were black and shiny, and she was always gurgling, as if she could see things. The hair is still a little naturally curly, it really looks like a doll, and it is very cute. Every time Ziqing looked at this child, her heart softened.
Shuyu and Shuwei gather around the little sister every day, and when Ziqing is not paying attention, they poke the tender face of the little girl with their fingers, or pinch the tender skin of the doll, Shuyu looks at the changes of the little sister every day, and is also surprised, always grabbing Ziqing and asking: "Mother, my sister is more beautiful today than yesterday, why?" That sister was born ugly, and I like this sister. ”
Shu Rui and Shu Yan must be the first stop when they come back from school every day, especially Shu Yan, as soon as they get on the pontoon bridge, they hear him shouting: "Sister sister, my brother has come back from school to see you." ”
Shu Rui knew how much his father and mother were looking forward to this little sister, and for this reason, his mother was beaten for the first time, so in his heart, he already had the idea of protecting this hard-won little sister.
"Rui'er, what do you say is the best name for my sister. Your father is not around, and there are many books you read at home, so you can choose a name for your sister. Ziqing looked at the four sons gathered around the kang and asked with a smile.
"Mother, I can too, well, the sister of the big dog in the village is called Xiaomei, and our family is called Xiaomei." Shuyu hurriedly said.
"Go, what name do you see, that's also a name? Can the big dog's sister compare to our sister? How beautiful our sister is, let's let the eldest brother take it. Shuhiko said.
"Mother, you see that my sister is so good-looking with a smile, as if she understands the words of the second brother, she smiles and smiles, why don't you call her sister Yanran." Shurui said.
"Qiaoxiao Yanran, Yanran, yes, my mother has decided, our girl's name is Lin Yanran, remember, you are a family, what about the family?"
"A family should love each other, help each other, take care of the little one, and listen to the big one." The four children said in unison.
Ziqing smiled and nodded, hugged the four children and kissed them again and again.
When Shen came over with Ziyu, Shuyan shouted: "Grandma, auntie, my sister has a name, her name is Yanran, which means that she smiles very well." The name taken by the eldest brother. ”
Shen Shi looked at Ziqing, touched Shurui's head, and praised: "Our Shurui is really smart, this name is really good." ”
Shu Rui saw that the adults had something to say together, so he took the initiative to take his three younger brothers out to play, and here Shen asked, "The child is breastfeeding, is your sister-in-law here?" ”
"No, I didn't send her a letter. She hasn't been to my house since the New Year.
Presumably, it is also to let our father be quiet and quiet, or there are too many things at home. Ziqing said.
"It is said that there are many things at home, and most of them are afraid that your father will not feel comfortable. Your father has been depressed all the time. ”
"When the moon is full, does my sister also prepare a few tables of banquets, please invite them and a few uncles? After all, grandma's affairs have nothing to do with my aunt, I don't know if my father is willing? Ziyu asked. (To be continued.)
