Qin Tai has been a little busy these days because his wife is about to give birth. As a first-time father, of course, like most fathers, he was a little nervous. Not only Qin Tai's father-to-be, but even Qin Tai's parents, that is, the grandparents of the future child, and the grandfather-to-be grandfather of Zhanxiao's godfather and old drunkard, everyone is a little abnormal. Qin Tai's mother has to check the spare things several times a day, what kind of children's clothes, and things for the child's mother to show a little nourishment, etc., for fear of missing something. Qin Tai's father prepared firecrackers and the biggest incense early. According to local customs, if a boy is born in the family, firecrackers must be set off, and incense should be offered to the ancestors. Qin Tai's father secretly took Qin Tai and Zhan Xiaoxiao's eight characters to tell fortunes many times, each of them said that Qin Tai had a son, and Zhan Xiaoxiao was a good daughter-in-law who gave birth to a son, according to their words, Qin Tai and his wife would have many children, most of whom would make boys. The old drunkard also has something to do, although he can't decide on the child's name, but he can suggest it. So as early as when Zhan Xiaoxiao had a child, the old drunkard master secretly chose the child's name. Anyway, Qin Tai and they won't have only one child, so the old drunkard master thought about it a lot. Preparing to wait for the child to be born, the old drunkard master told Qin Tai's parents in one go. Choose the best one for the child, and the other names for the other children in the future. The old drunkard came up with nearly twenty names at once, all of which were for boys. There are also more than a dozen names for girls. Of course, Zhan Xiaoxiao didn't know about these things, otherwise she would definitely make a big fuss. If she wants to give birth to so many children, don't say it's true, even thinking about it will scare her to death, the heroine of the year.

Not only the Qin family attaches great importance to it, but even Zhanxiao's parents also attach importance to it. Since the family moved to Shanxi, Zhan's father, who didn't like to drink much, fell in love with Fenjiu. The two father-in-law were together, just to drink some wine, and gradually the two half-old men became a pair of drinking friends, drinking and bragging together all day long. After a long time, they talked about Zhan Xiaoxiao, the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Qin family, and Zhan Xiaoxiao's father, who was drunk, bragged more than once, saying that all the women in their family would give birth. Zhan Xiaoxiao's mother and Zhan Xiaoxiao didn't know that their Zhan family still had such a good thing. According to Zhan's father, there is no shortage of men in the Zhan family, and in the history of the Zhan family, there are more than ten pairs of twins, seven triplets, and two quadruplets. Zhan's little great-grandmother is a mother of many children, and she gave birth to eight sons in her life, plus six daughters. When her old man was 80 years old, the number of children and grandchildren exceeded 200, and the scene of giving out red envelopes every year was spectacular. Every time Zhan Xiaoxiao heard this, he just stared wide-eyed and imagined this scene, which could no longer be described as spectacular, it should be quite terrifying.

The lady of the Qiu family not only went to the Qin family to help herself, but also repeatedly told her husband Qiu Min to try not to let Qin Tai go to the county office. If there is anything Qiu Min's father and son do by themselves, it's a big deal to hurry up, work overtime at night, and try to let Qin Tai accompany his daughter-in-law at home. is worried that Zhan Xiaoxiao, who is going to be a mother, will not adapt to her current identity. Besides, Zhanxiao's due date has arrived, and there will be a possibility of giving birth at any time. In ancient times, it was a common thing for a woman to give birth to a child, and of course, it was also a thing with a high accident rate. Zhan Xiaoxiao is a martial arts practitioner, so there should be no problem, but it will be safer to have Qin Tai by his side. Qin Tai is not only Zhan's husband, but also a person who is proficient in medical science. If Qin Tai is not an official, he is definitely qualified to be a doctor. Such a husband can reassure everyone by the side of his wife who is about to give birth.

But it was such a coincidence, when everyone was busy with the birth of Zhan's little child, an unexpected thing happened. "Ma Sandao", who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, was in big trouble, at least he felt that something tricky had happened. For this reason, he didn't have time to write a letter, and he was worried that people would know about it, so he had to tear off a piece of clothing on his body, bite his finger and write only the words "urgent" and "rescue". And ordered a trustworthy subordinate on the side to take this piece of clothing and a small bag of marching rice to the mountain * Xiping * Yao to find Qin Tai.

The so-called marching rice refers to the soldier's rations. Generally speaking, during the rush march, in addition to eating the food prepared by the fire head army on the first day, the soldiers will receive a bag of marching rice per person every day. This bag of rice is not much, it is about a soldier's ration for a day. Why don't you send more? It was the fear that the soldiers would escape with the rice, which was a common occurrence at that time. Besides, the officers were also worried that some of the "Madahar" soldiers had lost their rations. The reason why we want to issue military rice to everyone is actually more symbolic than practical. In order to reassure everyone, we will not let everyone go hungry. So almost every soldier will have a marching bag on his body, which serves as a self-soothing himself. Some soldiers did not have food in their marching bags, but first-aid medicines or snacks they had collected. However, what the "Ma Sandao" threw to his subordinates and gave to Qin Tai was a marching bag, which was really the food that the soldiers ate every day.

The reason why "Ma Sandao" did not write a letter was that he was worried that outsiders would know about it. Second, I am worried that someone will use this matter to deal with Qin Tai. The third is because "Ma Sandao" is not very literate, and he is afraid that he will give Qin Tai a wrong judgment if he talks too much. Fourth, "Ma Sandao" didn't want Qin Tai to come over immediately, but only hoped that Qin Tai would have the opportunity to investigate carefully in the future, rehabilitate "Ma Sandao", and return "Ma Sandao" an innocence.

But "Ma Sandao" was wrong, and the people around him were also Tan Lun's people. His trusted subordinates are the people Tan Lun sent to spy on him. This cronie handed over the marching bag and the corner of his clothes to Tan Lun, who held the thing and thought for a while, and gave a strange order. I want this cronie to travel day and night and rush to Qin Tai as quickly as possible. It is imperative that Qin Tai rush here as soon as possible and let him personally take over the handling of this matter.

Just when Qin Tai was accompanying Zhan Xiaoxiao at home and explaining Zhan Xiaoxiao's precautions again and again, the most relaxed person was only Zhan Xiaoxiao. At this time, Zhan Xiaoxiao is much richer than more than half a year ago, and it is no wonder that she eats so many things every day, and she is not allowed to move around freely, and it is difficult not to get fat. However, Zhan Xiaoxiao did not give up exercising, although he couldn't practice by luck, but the basic activities were still done secretly. So when everyone was worried, Zhan Xiaoxiao was not worried at all.

At this time, Qiu Xiaoqiu, who was supposed to be on duty in the yamen, suddenly appeared. Although he took great care to wash his body and put on clean clothes before coming to Qin's house. But the careful enemy still found that her son forgot to change his shoes, which is very undeserved. But she didn't blame her son right away, because she knew something was wrong. Otherwise, the enemy people would not have asked Qiu Xiaoqiu to come to the Qin family at this time, to find Qin Tai, who should not be looking for him. The lady of the Qiu family asked the girl to invite Qin Tai out, and at the same time asked her son to take off his shoes and wait outside the door barefoot, not allowing Qiu Xiaoqiu to enter the small room. And she went to get shoes for her son, just as she was making a pair of shoes for her son, and it was almost finished and just happened to change them for Qiu Xiaoqiu. As for the shoes worn by Qiu Xiaoqiu, they couldn't stay in the Qin family, and they couldn't be taken out again, so they had to be taken to the kitchen and burned. It's a bit of a shame, but it's a must-do.

As soon as Qin Tai saw Qiu Xiaoqiu, he knew that something was wrong. Qiu Xiaoqiu has never seen "Ma Sandao", and he doesn't know much about "Ma Sandao". But the enemy knows the person "Ma Sandao", and he knows where "Ma Sandao" went. "Ma Sandao" wrote a blood letter asking for help, there must have been something big going on there, so he immediately asked Qiu Xiaoqiu, who was an apprentice and son, to go to Qin's house to find Qin Tai to come to the yamen. The enemy is worried about bad news. So I didn't dare to let anyone go directly to Qin's house, let alone let Zhan Xiaoxiao know. The relationship between Zhan Xiaoxiao and "Ma Sandao" is not simple, and Zhan Xiaoxiao has always regarded "Ma Sandao" as his brother. Once the accident of "Ma Sandao" is known to Zhan Xiaoxiao, what should Zhan Xiaoxiao do? Therefore, Qiu Min only asked Qiu Xiaoqiu to invite Qin Taihui Yamen, and did not say anything about the actual content. But this is the case, which also surprised Qin Tai. It may be that these days have passed relatively smoothly, and Qin Tai seems to have forgotten about the crisis. Qin Tai lost his usual calm and composure, and it took a while to control his emotions.

Qin Tai found an excuse that he was not very satisfied, left Zhan Xiaoxiao, left the Qin family, and rushed back to the yamen with Qiu Xiaoqiu. Qiu Xiaoqiu didn't even have time to put on his shoes, and rushed to the yamen with bare heels behind Qin Tai. When the Qiu family lady chased to the door with her shoes, Qin Tai had already run away with Qiu Xiaoqiu. The lady of the Qiu family held her shoes and stood at the door in a daze. Although she felt that something was wrong, she was not ready to say it for the sake of everyone and the overall situation. After the husband comes home in the evening, he will ask the husband about the truth of the matter.
