Chapter 311: The Giving of Names

From Anyang City to Chang'an, day and night, it takes at least five days to go back and forth, and Yu Yu wrote back to inquire about Li Tai's news.

Not long after, he received a reply from Jingzhong, detailing the disappearance of a group of soldiers and horses led by Li Tai in the Great Sand Sea attacked by a dust storm.

It was not easy to send a message to Chang'an during the march in the Great Sand Sea, and ten messengers were often sent, and seven or eight would die on the way, and the first-hand news about Li Tai's disappearance was delivered to Chang'an in late May, but the time when Li Tai's leading troops were in distress in the Great Sand Sea occurred in early April.

As soon as he calculated this, Yu Yu felt cold in his heart, Li Tai had been in distress for two months, in the desert of death where there was no village in front of him and no store in the back, he had lost contact with the army, and there was no supply of military supplies, how could he survive these two months.

Although she repeatedly comforted herself, maybe Li Tai and the others had joined the army and got out of danger in the past two months, but the news had not yet come back, but Yinxiao's delay in returning made this hypothesis very weak.

So much so that in the days after receiving the letter from Chang'an, she couldn't sleep every night, and even if she fell asleep, she would keep dreaming.

Lu Shi looked at Yu Yu's anxiety in his eyes, and was glad that the birth of Xiaoyudi could distract her attention to some extent, so that she could put half of her heart on the little guy's body, so that she did not collapse.

Xiaoyudian's mouth is very tricky, Yiyu fed her for a few days, Lu thought that it was inconvenient for her to feed every day during the month, thinking that the child was willing to eat milk, so he gave it to the nurse to feed, but the little guy still refused to eat.

Lu Shi starved her fiercely for a long time, and the little rain was consumed with her, allowing the nurse to put her chest up, no matter how she stuffed it, she refused to open her mouth, and when she was very hungry, she opened a pair of dark eyes to look back and forth, and she didn't care if she could see people, she opened her throat and cried as soon as she flattened her mouth, her voice was not loud, and her voice was like a light rain, but Lu Shi couldn't stand it, and immediately took people to Yu Yu to feed.

Yi Yu looked down at the little guy lying on his chest snorting and sucking milk, and there were still a little tears in the corners of his eyes, and he couldn't help laughing:

"Send the nurse away, I'll just feed it, her mother has it, and she asks her to eat someone else's, no wonder she's not happy."

"Alas, this squeamish yo," Lu Shi said with disgust, but he still understood the meaning of the jade, "The nurse will send one back, and leave one behind, one day you will not feel well, and you will not starve the child." ”

As the two were talking, they heard a crisp sound of "hiccup".

Xiaoyudian was hungry all morning, she was choked when she was in a hurry, she hiccuped, and a few white milk foams appeared at the corners of her mouth, so Yu Yu quickly picked her up and patted her back gently.

Pingtong spoke outside the house:

"Master, there are a lot of gifts in the Governor's Mansion this morning, and Sun Dianjun has sent a gift list, do you want to take a look?"

When Yu Yu heard this, he knew that the news of his birth had spread in the city, "Look at it, if there is any inconsistency to go back." ”

Since the day Dai Liang's case fell, the local big family in Anyang City has been afraid of the widow, after all, no one has one or two improper deeds under their hands, and no one wants to be dragged to the court one day to lose their old face, and lose all their belongings and inheritance by the way.

This was to be careful, and as soon as he heard the wind and grass, he asked his wife to go to the Deng County Decree Mansion to inquire, for fear that if he inadvertently offended the Yu Yu, he would be unlucky.

Yi Yu understood the thoughts of these people, and was happy to see them restrain their inferiority, so he deliberately did not give them a good face.

Xiaoyudi was full and yawned frequently, and Yiyu was reluctant to let her daughter out of sight, but the confinement room was not ventilated, so it was really not suitable for her to stay longer, so she asked the Lu family to take her out and sleep elsewhere.

When Yiyu was six months pregnant, she drew drawings when she had nothing to do, and asked the craftsman to create two complete sets of small beds, small baths and small wardrobes according to the drawings, and specially cleaned up a sunny room for Xiaoyudian to use.

During her pregnancy, the Lu family did not allow her to do needlework, nor did she ask the tailor on the governor's mansion to make clothes, and single-handedly took over her grandson's clothes, belly pockets, small clothes, pants and socks, all of which were sewn and embroidered by herself, picked bright colors, embroidered all kinds of childlike fun, embroidered the embroidered surface of small fish and ducks, and made both male and female babies.

It was still June, the weather was hot, Lu put the light raindrops into the small bed, touched the fine sweat on her neck, then untied her small clothes, and asked Pinghui to go to the cabinet to get a clean little pocket out, and he turned the smooth little guy in the bed, and threw the prickly heat dough on her back.

"Old lady, my uncle is outside."

Hearing the report from the people outside the door, Lu Shi didn't stop, "Let him come in." ”

Han Li was allowed to enter the house, "I have something to say to you." ”

"Well, wait."

He saw that Lu was busy with his hands, so he leaned over to look, it was the first time that he had come so close to see a little baby.

Xiaoyudi was sleepy, lazily lying on the small pillow, tossed and turned by her grandmother, occasionally kicking the calves, the baby of ten days has been very different from the appearance of the newborn, the white and tender skin is a little ruddy, and the small hands and feet are delicate as if they were white-faced dolls, which are rare.

Probably because he was disturbed by Lu Shi and couldn't sleep, fortunately he opened his eyes, and his black eyes couldn't see people clearly, but they were very good-looking, and he waved his small fist twice, stuffed it into his mouth, chirped, and blinked at the adult next to the bed.

Rao is a ruthless character like Han Li, and at this moment, he can't help but feel a little gentle, his heart is itchy, and he stretches out a finger to pull the finger that Xiaoyu holds in his mouth.

Grabbed by the slimy little hands, his back stiffened, not because he was unclean, but because he was close to the child for the first time, and he couldn't adapt to this soft little guy.

But he soon put this uncomfortable back, because Xiaoyudian lost interest, let go of his fingers, and continued to stuff the little fist into his mouth.

Han Li raised his eyebrows, reached out and pulled her fist out, watched her stuff it back again, and then pulled it out, this old and young man were very stubborn, no one would let anyone, one insisted on eating fingers, and the other insisted on harassing to the end, so back and forth a few times, but forgot that the Lu family was still on the side.

Seeing Han Li's rare stubbornness, Lu couldn't help laughing, laughed out loud, put away the dough, and said to Han Li, who was a little embarrassed to withdraw his hand:

"It's fun, you can be regarded as Xiaoyudi's uncle, you have to hurt her more."

Uncle? Han Li was not very satisfied with this title, but he still made a happy look and nodded:

"Naturally, it's your granddaughter, and it's my Han's granddaughter."

Lu Shi didn't hear that he was taking advantage of himself, and he was afraid that the light rain would catch a cold, so he quickly tied a small green belly pocket embroidered with a shepherd boy playing the flute to his granddaughter, spread out the small quilt to cover her, and softly patted her to sleep.

Xiaoyudian was very honest when he slew, and after a while, he quieted down, and Lu asked Pinghui to guard on the side, and led Han Li to the next living room to talk.

"What do you want to say?"

Han Li worded for a moment, "I once told you that when my family fell in the middle of the road and went to the Northwest Trade Road, do you remember?" ”

If he hadn't been targeted by the people of Hongzhuang, he would still be the master of Duyun Village.

"Well, you said that."

"The imperial court sent troops to crusade against Xichang at the end of last year, and I knew that after the King of Wei was appointed, I kept a heart," Han Li said this, paused deliberately, and saw that the Lu clan sat up straight before continuing:

"There are often dust storms in the great desert leading to Xichang, and many caravans die every year, and they may not die for a while when they are buried in the sand, but the people who are lost in the sea of sand do not have enough water to give, and they can only live for seven days at most.

Lu's face changed, and Han Li sighed, "Alas, I'll tell you first, just to let you have a number in your heart, the current situation, if something happens to King Wei, without his protection, Yu'er's mother and daughter will not be able to be good in the future, Chang'an has become a tiger's den, and Anyang will not be safe, the best plan is to let me take you back to Nanzhao." ”

"It's too early to say anything," Lu Shi listened to Han Li's words, not only was he not moved, but there were faint signs of anger, "When the time comes, I want to kneel down and beg you, and I also want to keep their mother and daughter safe."

Han Li smiled bitterly, "What did you say, why do I need you to beg me, the day we went to the flower market, didn't I understand enough, at this age, I don't ask for anything, I just hope to accompany you to the end of my life, even if I want to become a dog in the next life, it's okay." ”

Lu's face softened slightly, "Don't talk nonsense, can this vow be messed up." ”

Han Li was reproached by her, but his heart was useful, and he was about to say something to her again, when he heard a rush of footsteps outside the door, and after a while, someone ran to report:

"Old lady, there is another person in the capital, waiting in the front yard to read the decree, the master is packing up and preparing to get out of bed, please go to the front yard first."

Lu Shi and Han Li glanced at each other, and the former got up, "Got it, let's go." ”

"There is a decree in the saint, I heard that Princess Wei gave birth to a daughter on the fifth day of the sixth month, born in the summer, accompanied by rain, coinciding with the drought in the north, looking forward to blessings, giving the name of Lingyu, I remember it, and call to return to Beijing in August, and enter the palace to meet."

This holy decree was announced, the emperor wanted to see his granddaughter, and ordered the relict jade to return to Beijing in August, the Lu family and the relict jade had a sudden break in their hearts, the Lu family just listened to Han Li's reminder, and the relict jade had already planned.

Zhou Li said, "Marriage and birth in three months and the name is added", that is, the newly born child will be named and recorded in the family tree after three months, because many children are prone to die prematurely in the newborn stage, and it is meaningless to obtain a name too early.

However, in the emperor's decree, it is clear that the name was given to Xiaoyudian in advance, not only is it so, but it is also a name that is inappropriate to listen to, Ling Yu, Li Lingyu, Kan Ling Fengyu, so strong, how is it suitable to be put on the head of a royal baby girl.

It is conceivable that the news of this name will attract the eyes of many people.

Regarding the emperor's intentions, Yi Yu was faintly aware, afraid that Li Tai had gone wrong, and he wanted to pick another target to prick people, which happened to choose her daughter, otherwise, why would he recruit them back to Beijing at this time.

Thinking about the holy will, Yi Yu couldn't help but be indignant in his heart, and a sense of powerlessness arose in his heart, Li Taishang couldn't resist the holy will, and the emperor had been dealing with him for all these years, and now that he was away, how should she protect their daughter.

The widow did not sit in the full moon, and when he came out of the house for a long time, he saw the wind for a long time, and he was worried in his heart, and in the evening, he actually started a fever.
