"Tiger Head, Sister Cao, Binzi, you're back!" As soon as Nie Xiaohu and the three of them returned to the fast catching room, Shi Yuning and the others greeted them, and the expression on their faces was as if they hadn't seen each other for several years.

"How's it going, what's going on, is everything okay?" , Nie Xiaohu asked with a smile.

"Everything's fine, no!" , Shi Lian Ningle said.

"By the way, here's an invitation from you!" As Shi Yuning spoke, he took out a big red invitation card from his bosom and handed it to Nie Xiaohu.

"This was sent by Luo Binghua's descendants from Luo Yuan's family yesterday."

"Huh? Little stone, what is this on your face? Nie Xiaohu asked while taking the invitation while looking at Shi Yuning's face.

"This ......"

Shi Yuning touched his left cheek with his hand, and said hesitantly, "This... This is last night when I was teasing the cat at home, I was... Scratched by a cat. ”

"Cats? I think it's a female cat, right? Mao Guangjian said with a smile on the side.

"No, it's supposed to be a tigress, right?" , Liu Zhenxiao said.

"Hahahaha!" , several of them laughed in unison.

"You talk a lot!" , Shi Wei glanced at a few people.

"I said Xiaoshi, that tigress in your family bullies you like this every day, why do you still treat her as a treasure?" , Cao Xiaohui looked at Shi Yuning with approving eyes and asked with a smile.

"Then Sister Cao, let me ask you a question!"

"Just ask!"

"You say that Lao Tzu asked why he wanted to write the Tao Te Ching?"

"This ......"

Cao Xiaohui frowned and thought about it, shook her head and said, "I really don't know this, why do you say it?" ”

"Because Lao Tzu is willing!" Shi Yuning raised his eyebrows, squinted his eyes and looked up at the beams of the room.

……

Nie Xiaohu, Cao Xiaohui, Mao Guangjian and others all pursed their lips and rolled their eyes.

"Brother Tiger, what's written on the invitation?" , Cao Xiaohui asked.

"Oh, it's Luo Yuanwai's daughter-in-law who just gave birth to a big fat boy, and three days later, that is, the morning after tomorrow, there will be a ceremony to join the family and write him into the family tree, Luo Yuanwai specially invited us to watch the ceremony", Nie Xiaohu said while looking at the invitation.

"Oh, I see!" , Cao Xiaohui nodded.

"By the way, Xiaohui, what is the origin of this Luo Yuanwai? I haven't been here for long, and I really don't know anything about this Luo Yuan. ”

"Luo Binghua", Cao Xiaohui thought for a while and said, "He was originally a hunter, and his family background was very ordinary, but five years ago, I don't know where he made a windfall, and after he came back, he started a leather business, and he is also shrewd, and he is very good at doing business, and the business is getting bigger and bigger, and now he is a well-known rich family in Jingren District." He invited you to watch the ceremony this time, just to put gold on his face! ”

"Hehe, then as he wishes, let's go and join in the fun the day after tomorrow!" , Nie Xiaohu said with a smile.

Early in the morning after tomorrow, Nie Xiaohu, Cao Xiaohui and others arrived at Luo Binghua's house around midmorning.

"Oops! Lord Nie is here, and the old man's whole family is really vibrant! Luo Binghua greeted him with a smile, followed by a man and a woman.

"I've seen my lord!" , the man and the woman said at the same time to Nie Xiaohu and the others.

Nie Xiaohu nodded: "You are?" ”

"Oh, this is the dog Luo Zhigao, this is my daughter-in-law Sun", Luo Binghua hurriedly introduced.

"Congratulations to Luo Yuan for adding Ding Jiakou and being happy to have his own grandson!" , Nie Xiaohu politely said a few words.

"Thank you, thank you! Adult, please go inside! Luo Binghua smiled happily and let Nie Xiaohu and the others into the living room.

After entering the living room, everyone sat down and had their own maidservants serve fragrant tea.

After exchanging a few polite words to each other, Nie Xiaohu said with a smile: "Luo Yuanwai, why don't you take us to see your big fat grandson?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Oh, look, I'm all old and confused, hahahaha! This way, please! Luo Binghua got up with a smile and said.

Nie Xiaohu and the others entered the inner hall under the leadership of Luo Binghua, and stopped at the door of a small room, the door was open, and there was only a plainly dressed woman who looked like she was twenty-five or sixteen years old, and the woman was sitting in the center of the house at this time, gently pushing a cradle back and forth beside her.

Seeing Luo Binghua come in, the woman slowly stood up, smiled slightly, and gently said a thousand blessings, and then took two steps back.

Luo Binghua put the middle finger of his right hand to his mouth, and walked to the edge of the cradle gently and slowly, for fear that the footsteps would wake up the sleeping baby in the cradle.

Nie Xiaohu and the others also held their breath, tiptoed in, and gathered around the cradle.

Inside the cradle, a chubby, pink little guy was sleeping soundly, with jet-black hair and slender eyelashes fluttering rhythmically with his breathing, which was very cute.

Cao Xiaohui loved it so much that she couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the baby's pink little face, and her face was full of irrepressible affection.

"It's so cute!" After leaving the room, Cao Xiaohui said in surprise.

"Luo Yuanwai, congratulations on your successor!" , Nie Xiaohu said with a smile and clenched his fists.

"Rejoice and rejoice!" , Luo Binghua returned with a smile.

"How's it going, have you chosen a name?"

"Take it, call Luo Baixiang!"

"Pepsi auspicious, all the best, good name!" , Nie Xiaohu complimented.

Luo Binghua laughed heartily again.

"Sir!" At this time, a middle-aged man pushed a cart of firewood past the yard and nodded at Luo Binghua to say hello.

"Master, I'll send a few guests to the ferry later, and the roof of the ancestral hall will be repaired when I come back!" , the middle-aged man stopped the car and said.

"Well, let's send the firewood to the kitchen!" , Luo Binghua nodded.

"Hey!" The man nodded, pushed the cart and left.

Looking at the man's back, Luo Binghua said: "His name is Hu Wanquan, and he is the husband of Yan Shasha, the nurse of the little grandson, and the woman who took care of the little grandson." He has a horse-drawn carriage, and he earns some money by transporting guests to and from the Jingren ferry on weekdays, and he also does odd jobs with me in his spare time, such as delivering firewood and repairing houses. ”

Back in the living room, many guests came one after another, and Nie Xiaohu was indispensable for socializing.

There were gradually more people in the living room, and it became a lot more lively, just after everyone was talking about it for a while, Luo Binghua suddenly clapped his hands and stood up with a smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen! The auspicious time has arrived, please move to the ancestral hall in the backyard to watch the little grandson's initiation ceremony! ”
