Zhang Ting and Wu Xinxin are both not young, and the two families do not want to delay, so the wedding date is scheduled for next spring.

This date was decided after the discussion between the two families, and by next spring, Huo Roufeng would have a full moon, although they thought it was unlikely, but the two families hoped that Huo Roufeng could go to have a glass of wine.

Of course, this is just the private thoughts of the two families, and they can't say it, so as not to be laughed at.

Zhang Ting worked as a servant for Huo Roufeng, although Wu Xinxin was Huo Roufeng's handkerchief, but her father was not only a merchant, but also a concubine, her identity couldn't even enter the circle of everyone's ladies, so she didn't dare to ask Huo Roufeng to drink happy wine.

When the Wu family sent the dowry list over, Huo Roufeng asked Zhang Shengping to come and take a look, and saw that the dowry given by the Wu family to Wu Xinxin, excluding the silver in the box, was also worth five or six thousand taels.

She immediately felt that Zhang Ting was too poor, so she thought about buying something for Zhang Ting, and after Zhanhuai heard about it, she said: "Manly husband, if you want to let the Yue family take a look, you still have to fight for yourself, no matter how much you give him, he is still your little servant in the eyes of others." ”

Huo Roufeng looked at him with blazing eyes: "What? General Zhan Wu wants him to be an official? ”

Zhan Huai smiled: "Why not? This time he went to the capital to contribute a lot, if he has a military position, he can also ask for merit, and I want to keep him by your side in the future, and I will always give him a serious official position. ”

Huo Roufeng was overjoyed and said, "Then wait a little longer." ”

In the blink of an eye, it was another month, Zhanhuai received an urgent letter from 600 miles south of the Yangtze River, so he called a few staff members to discuss, and at noon, he returned to the back house to accompany Huo Roufeng to dinner.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Huo Roufeng walking around the house.

"What's wrong?" Zhanhuai asked.

"I don't know, it's just ...... I just feel uncomfortable sitting and standing, and I may have eaten too much. Huo Roufeng pointed to the honey peanuts on the table.

Zhan Huai saw that there were only two little girls in the house, but he didn't see them, and he was immediately displeased, Xiao Jiu was about to give birth, and he had already said that there should be people around him at all times, why were there only these two little ones?

Just thinking about it, Zhanhuai's eyes widened, yes, Xiao Jiu is about to give birth!

At this moment, there was a hurried footstep outside, and Zhu Cui led the two Wen Po to trot in, and when she saw Zhan Huai, she said: "The two old ladies have all told you, if the fifth lady is not feeling well, let Wen Po come and take a look." ”

Zhanhuai breathed a sigh of relief, his daughter-in-law is inexperienced, but fortunately, the girls are sensible.

These two Wen Po were brought over from Fujian by Mrs. Zhong, not only the grandchildren of the Zhan family were delivered by them, but even Zhan Huai.

The two saw that Zhanhuai was still standing there, and blasted him out without saying a word: "Fifth master, if you are not at ease, just wait outside the door, if you are at ease, go to the front and get busy, here we are." ”

Zhan Huai immediately understood in his heart that Xiao Jiu might really be about to give birth.

He hurriedly went out, and after a while, a stable woman poked her head out of it and said to Zhu Cui, who was also blasted out: "The fifth lady has a seizure, go and tell the two old ladies quickly." ”

The people around Huo Roufeng have been told many times before, and they all know what to do, and when Zhu Cui gave an order, all the maids inside and outside the door ran out, sending letters, boiling water, and inviting doctors.

Four other stout mothers-in-law dragged the four corners of the quilt and carried Huo Roufeng into the delivery room that had been prepared a long time ago.

Zhan Huai stood there stupidly with his hands open, what should he do? Should he go in and accompany Xiao Jiu?

But as soon as his hand touched the carved wooden door, he was stopped by Mama Liu, who had just rushed over.

"Fifth general, I can't help it, don't blame the old woman for overstepping, you are leading the troops, and you have been on the battlefield again, and there is a bad aura on your body, the fifth lady and the little boy are weak at this time, and they can't stand it."

Zhan Huai was stunned, retreated and avoided three zhang away, and bumped into Mrs. Zhong, who rushed to hear the news.

Mrs. Zhong was hit by him and almost fell, and she was helped by the people around her to barely stand up.

Mama Liu couldn't imagine that she was killed, and what she said not only frightened Zhanhuai, but also Mrs. Zhong and Xie Honglin.

Mrs. Zhong and Xie Honglin looked at each other, both of them had blood on their hands, although they were not as good as Zhanhuai, but they should also have evil spirits.

Mrs. Zhong smiled bitterly: "No wonder I haven't been looking forward to a daughter all these years, not even my granddaughter, I was born with some stinky boys, it turned out that there was a bad spirit, and the little girls didn't dare to come." ”

In Xie Honglin's life, whether she killed her own hands or died because of her, she doesn't even remember how many lives she has on her hands, but didn't she also give birth to a daughter?

She will be skeptical, but she will not dare to come forward, this kind of thing is to believe in it rather than believe in it.

But after doubts, Xie Honglin also understood one thing.

She glared at Mrs. Zhong and asked, "In-laws, do you want to hold your granddaughter?" ”

Mrs. Zhong smiled wryly and pointed inside: "As long as it is born to the two of them, I want to hug my grandchildren." ”

Xie Honglin snorted coldly in her heart, it was my daughter who worked hard to give birth to a child inside, and your son didn't have to suffer with it, of course you wanted to hug it.

The corners of Mrs. Zhong's mouth moved, fortunately, she reacted quickly enough, if Xiao Jiu really added a son to the Zhan family, wouldn't it make Xie Honglin think that she, who was a grandmother, would be disgusted?

At this time, a mother-in-law asked, "Fifth General, what's wrong with you?" ”

The two in-laws remembered that there was a show next to them, and the two looked at it together, and they were all startled.

It has passed the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sky is getting cooler, but Zhanhuai is sweating profusely.

"Pengju, are you alright?" Xie Honglin asked with concern.

Zhan Huai stared at the two closed wooden doors in front of him, his eyes did not blink, and when he heard someone ask him, he just shook his head: "It's okay." ”

Madame Zhong only glanced at him and looked away.

biological son, of course she, a mother, knows what's going on.

Of course he's fine, he's just nervous.

They are all people who have become generals, and they are nervous when they hear that their daughter-in-law has a child, if they let the old man in their own house know, maybe they will give him a few military sticks, which is too embarrassing.

However, she still didn't look at it, spicy eyes.

Soon, the Qianjinke doctor of the Four Seasons Hall also came, Xie Honglin asked Caihe to go in to help, and after a while, a mother-in-law who served in it came out and said to everyone with a smile: "The two ladies let the slave maid come out and say, the fifth lady is in good health, and the fetal position is also correct, don't worry, it will be smooth sailing, it is the first child, it will inevitably take a little longer, please don't worry about the two old ladies." ”

Xie Honglin breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled at Mrs. Zhong, her daughter must be the best.

But when the two of them went to see Zhanhuai again, they found that the silly boy was still the same as just now, staring, sweating, and clenching his two fists, as if he was ready to smash the two doors and rescue his daughter-in-law.
