Chapter 3: Babies from Heaven

In the southwest of Dongsheng Shenzhou, there is a place called Nanshan. Among them, the river network is dense, the mountains and rivers are gentle, there are thousands of acres of fertile land, and there are countless rare and exotic beasts. has managed this treasure land for generations, and is the famous Qu family. But recently, Qu Liang, the head of the Qu family, has a little trouble, he has been married to a wife for more than ten years, and then married six concubines, but he still has no children and has never given birth.

Could it be his own problem? After a long time, the rumors also reached his ears, making him himself doubt his own ability. Tidying up his clothes in front of the mirror, Qu Liang looked at himself in the mirror, approached the mirror and touched his sideburns, and one or two silver threads were faintly visible.

"Time is urging people to grow old, and time is not waiting for me. ”

The days passed, and the wives and concubines still had no movement in their stomachs, and Qu Liang was worried at the beginning of the day.

He couldn't help but think of a year ago when he went up the mountain to pray for a son, and that night in a dream an immortal gave him guidance, asking him to find a fatherless and motherless baby to adopt as an adopted son, and soon the child would be around his knees. But he consulted with the people in the family, but he couldn't find a suitable candidate, and after a long time, he was gone.

Thinking about it today, I may have to ask someone to find it to see if there is such a suitable baby and adopt one.

Opening the door as usual, Qu Liang saw at a glance that something was placed in front of the door blocking his way. Surprised, he looked at it and found that it was a sleeping baby.

He was amazed and quickly picked up the baby. Looking around, there is nothing abnormal in his courtyard, the courtyard door is locked, and no one opens it, if someone climbs over the wall to enter, how can he not be aware of it?

Thinking of this, the shock in Qu Liang's heart could no longer be hidden, and it was all on his face. He looked up at the sky and wondered who had left this baby here, and why had he chosen to put it in front of his door?

Looking down at the baby in his arms, he was sleeping sweetly, his chubby little face was red, and he looked like a spiritual little guy. Gently unwrapping the cotton clothes wrapped around the baby's body, Qu Liang found that there was a golden lock in the baby's arms, creating a delicate one, with the word "Zhao" engraved on one side and the pattern of a bird looking back on the other.

With such an imprint, he never remembered that there was a family in the neighborhood who had it. Other than that, he could not find any other sigils to prove his origins. But he was already thoughtful: "A boy from heaven, could it be that this is my adopted son sent by God?"

However, he knew better what this son represented when he appeared in front of him, so he didn't dare to delay, and left in a hurry, and went back to the mountain.

The Qu family was preparing for breakfast, but the head of the family, Qu Liang, had not yet come, and no one dared to move the chopsticks first, even the three or four-year-old children waited obediently. Some people are a little strange, I don't know why Qu Liang will come so late today, it has already exceeded the time when breakfast started.

Mrs. Qu Ying was a little anxious, she called someone and asked her to call Qu Liang.

The subordinate nodded in agreement, and just turned around to go, he saw Qu Liang walking out, still holding a small thing in his arms. Qu Liang's favorite concubine Okra greeted her with a smile and asked curiously, "Xianggong, why is it so late today?

Qu Liang sold a pass, walked straight to his seat, and saw that the important people in the family had already arrived, so he coughed and said with a solemn expression: "Today's matter is very important, and it must not be exposed." Let's go down first, and let the children go down first. ”

Everyone else felt a little strange, and they didn't know what kind of medicine Qu Liang was selling in this gourd. But seeing Qu Liang's serious expression, he knew that he was not joking.

Qu Liang's younger brother, Qu Qian, the head of the house, said: "Everyone should do what the eldest brother says." I'll have breakfast delivered to each house. ”

After everyone was almost gone, Qu Liang slowly lifted the gauze covering the mysterious little thing. Under the gauze was a sleeping baby, much to the surprise of everyone present. Ying Ying stood up first and asked, "Husband, who is this child?"

Qu Liang signaled her not to be in a hurry, and then told in detail what happened to him this morning.

When the others heard this, they were all shocked. Qu Mansion, which they regarded as the safest home, had people who could come and go freely, and they also coincidentally left this child in front of the door of the head of the Qu family without realizing it. No matter how you think about such a thing, it is not easy to think of it.

"Is that the husband going to do this with this child, and will he be handed over to the Fuzhong family for adoption?"

Qu Liang shook his head lightly, not in a hurry to answer, but asked, "I don't know if you remember that a year ago, we went up the mountain to pray for blessings, and I had a dream that night. In my dream, an immortal came to me in front of me in the clouds, pointed me out, and told me that as long as I adopted a fatherless and motherless child, I would soon be able to have children around my knees. I talked about this matter with my wife, second brother and third brother that day, but the search for my son was fruitless, so I couldn't do it. This morning I remembered it again, and it so happened that this child appeared at my door, and I think this son is destined for me, and I want to adopt him as an adopted son, I wonder what you think?"

Qu Liang's words surprised everyone present. The head of the Qu family brought a baby of unknown origin early in the morning and said that he wanted to adopt him as an adopted son.

Ying Ying was also the first to object, she said: "Husband, the immortal instructs, if you can really get a son, it is blessed by God, even if it is fruitless, it is a happy event to be able to have an adopted son." It's just that the origin of this son is unknown, and he is a master who placed him in front of the husband's door, presumably his life experience is quite complicated, we rashly accepted him as an adopted son, will it be unfavorable to the Qu family in the future? ”

Qu Liang's younger brother Qu Bei also stood up and persuaded: "Big brother, what the sister-in-law said is extremely true, this matter is very important, and you need to be cautious. If this son must be burdened with great enmity, it will inevitably harm our Qu family in the future. This is a risk that cannot be taken. The younger brother thought that the eldest brother was just a joke, so he didn't bother to look for it. If the eldest brother really wants an adopted son, the younger brother should find an innocent, well-behaved son for the eldest brother. ”

Qian Ying also said: "Husband, the third brother is right, you have to be careful about things that are not good for the Qu family. can put this son in front of Xianggong's door, although I don't know who the master is, but it must not be something that our Qu family can provoke. Such a high man cannot take this son in, and we must not adopt him. I will find someone to take him in, raise him well, and give an account to the senior master. ”

was persuaded by his wife and third brother left and right, Qu Liang was also shaken, what the two of them said was indeed reasonable, he didn't have to adopt this son.

But at this moment, the baby, who had been sleeping soundly, woke up. He opened a pair of big jewel-like eyes and looked at the strangers surrounding him in front of him, and was a little surprised, is it daylight now? Where is he now? Where are the two beautiful big sisters last night? Three questions in a row cannot be answered, and he can only act on the opportunity.

Qu Liang also looked down at the baby in his arms, and the two looked at each other for a while, and the baby suddenly reached out and gently pulled Qu Liang's clothes, and then grabbed his little sheep's beard.

Qu Liang was a little surprised, he didn't expect this child to wake up without crying or making trouble, but to be so intimate with him. This made him decide in his heart, and he decided to adopt this son as an adopted son.

After he announced this decision, Qian Ying and some Qu family members still persuaded him, but Qu Liang did not accept it, and only left a sentence: "The Great Elder has agreed to this matter, and he will preside over the adoption ceremony for me in the near future." This matter must not be said to the outside world, and everyone knows the benefits and harms. ”

As soon as they heard the Great Elder, the opponents were dumbfounded. Who is the Great Elder, that is the most respected person in the Qu family.

Although Ying Ying has always opposed adoption, her husband has decided, and she has no choice but to obey, and takes the child under her knees, and personally names it "Yi", which means that she wants to fly high.

is not just a coincidence or the fulfillment of the guidance of immortals, after Qu Liang adopted Qu Yi, less than a month, Qian Ying became pregnant, and less than a month later, Qu Liang's concubine okra was also pregnant. Three joys are coming, in order to repay the wish, Qu Liang took his wife's concubine and adopted son Qu Yi to the mountain again.
