Next Chapter

Others cross, they all have the halo of the protagonist, with a system, with a computer, there is nothing to buy in the system, there is no technology to find on the computer, and they soon became popular and famous all over the world. Only Zhao Chongyang's crossing is different, from a young man in his twenties to a baby, if it weren't for the chance to meet a good family, he would regret crossing once......

It is said that at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, dozens of miles outside the city of Nanjing, there was a village called Zhaojiazhuang, there were more than 300 households in the village, more than 1,500 people, it was a famous village.

According to the genealogical records of the Zhao family, when the grandfather raised troops to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty, in order to avoid the war, the ancestors of the Zhao family fled to this place with their clansmen to build a village and established Zhaojiazhuang. Later, some people with foreign surnames came one after another, and everyone worked together to cultivate the land here. After more than 100 years of reproduction, the Zhao clan and other villagers intermarried with each other, became in-laws and neighbors of each other, and the relationship was extremely harmonious.

Due to the fact that it is not far from the river, most of the residents in the village make a living by fishing and farming, except for the family of Zhao Wuji, the owner of Zhao Village.

For generations, the Zhao family was dominated by commerce and handicrafts, and spinning, weaving and paper making were the three pillar industries of the Zhao family. The courtyard of the owner of Zhao Zhuang is the largest in the village, and the land is the most in the village.

However, no one in the clansmen or other villagers was jealous of his family. One is that the owner of Zhao Zhuang is kind and charitable, often helping orphans and helping the poor, and the people in the village have almost received the favor of his family. Second, Zhao Zhuang's generation has no sons, only two daughters, and is a standard "desperate" family. Although there is a family fortune, there are no direct descendants to inherit. However, the house of the owner of Zhao Zhuang is a single transmission of five generations, and it is impossible to raise a son from the near branch to inherit the incense. Therefore, if there is no one to inherit the big family business, why is it rare?

Everyone talked about it in private, and they couldn't help but shake their heads when they talked about his family: "People are good people, and they have been great good people for generations." Why doesn't God have long eyes and wants to let such a person be the last one? The tone was half sympathetic, half schadenfreude. The elders said that there are very few people in the world who have two fortunes. Most of them are making people without getting rich, and getting rich without making people. It seems that there is some truth in this. Some people also comforted Lord Zhao like this.

For this reason, Mrs. Liu of Zhaofu did not ask God to worship the Buddha, and kowtowed to the night of burning incense.

On this day, the hall is filled with smoke and the incense candles are about to burn out. The goddess of mercy on the throne is solemn, with a kind smile on his face. The baby in Guanyin's arms looks like a son in a dream between his eyebrows.

Liu Yuzhen, the owner's wife, looked at it, she didn't feel stupid, she couldn't help stroking the baby, and muttered in her mouth: "Son, where are you?" Mother misses you! ”

"Yuzhen, why are you here again?" With the sound of pushing the door, Zhao Wuji walked in.

Zhao Zhuang is forty miles away, middle and upper height, with well-defined facial features, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, with the calmness and ability of people who work hard in the business world, white and handsome skin, which makes people feel close at first sight, and he must be a handsome guy when he is young.

Mrs. Liu did not speak, but bowed to the statue of Guanyin a few times, her eyes slightly closed, and her mouth continued to tell Guanyin Bodhisattva her request.

With a helpless wry smile on his face, the owner of Zhao Zhuang persuaded: "Fate is sometimes self-deserved, and don't force it when there is no fate." The Bodhisattva sent us two clever daughters, which is already a great love. What's more, when my ancestor of the Zhao family was buried, my great-grandfather asked Mr. Yunyang, the yin and yang feng shui master at that time, to look at the yin land, and he asked the great-ancestor at that time: 'Do you want to strike first and then die, or first and then die.' The great-grandfather replied, 'You must do it first.' Mr. Yunyang clapped his hands and laughed at the time: "First kill and then strike, put it to death and then live." Survive in a desperate situation, shine! Good! Good! Good! Therefore, both my grandfather and my father took to heart the teachings of my great-grandfather: 'It is better to be a widow than to take a concubine.' 'When it comes to my next generation, it will be the critical time to go from extinction to hair, please be patient. ”

Due to the difficulty of childbirth when giving birth to the second lady, it took three days and three nights to give birth, which exhausted the hostess's lifelong essence, energy, and spirit. As a result, the hostess was no longer pregnant after the age of 32. Later, after being diagnosed by Hu Tianyi, the first miracle doctor in Nanjing, he said that he was powerless, and Mrs. Liu's sunflower had been exhausted and had been sterilized.

For a long time, Mrs. Liu did not accept this fact, on the one hand, she asked God to worship Buddha, and on the other hand, she persuaded Zhao Zhuang to take a concubine, and she was more willing to give. Build bridges and repair roads, help orphans and poor, and never lag behind in disaster years.

But no matter how his wife persuaded him, Zhao Wuji always kept in mind the family mantra of "putting death before life, deciding first and then attacking, and living in a desperate place", and resolutely disagreed with taking a concubine. Now, his wife has been sterilized for five years, and in two or three years, she will be forty, that is, a normal woman, and there are few pregnancies in this era.

From a normal point of view, in the current situation, if they don't take a concubine, their Zhao family will definitely be "absolutely". Now Zhao Wuji just wants to see how God arranges it to realize the proverb of "Never survive and shine".

……

Or "sincerity, gold and stone are open", or "thinking about the day and dreaming at night".

It's been five years, exactly five years and five months, and for the first time, Mrs. Liu dreamed that Guanyin Bodhisattva put a baby in her arms. Therefore, when she worships the Bodhisattva today, she worships more reverently.

After worshipping herself, Mrs. Zhao Zhuang pulled the owner of Zhao Zhuang over again: "Master, why did you dream that Guanyin Bodhisattva put a boy into my arms and let me take care of it." Today, you will also come to worship the Bodhisattva and make my good dreams come true. ”

Lord Zhao Zhuang's heart moved, and he said secretly: "Could it be that the proverb of Yunyang Old Dao is about to come true?" So, he simply obeyed his wife's wishes and knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva and kowtowed.

It's strange to say, it's also strange. A few days later, Mrs. Liu's menstrual affairs that had been interrupted for several years showed signs of recovery. The couple hurriedly took a boat to Nanjing City and went to find Dr. Hu Tianyi to recuperate his wife's body.

After Dr. Hu took Mrs. Liu's pulse, he asked the couple about their daily life and some physical matters of Mrs., and then asked, "Has Mrs. been practicing the 'Baduan Jin' I taught her?" ”

"Yes, it never stops." Lord Zhao replied. It turned out that after Mrs. Liu gave birth to the second miss, her health was extremely poor. In order to let his wife's body recover as soon as possible, in addition to prescribing Chinese medicine to recuperate for her, Hu Tianyi also taught her a set of Baduanjin, so that she could practice diligently and strive for an early recovery.

Doctor Hu said to Zhao Wuji: "Looking at Madame's current physical condition, she is gradually recovering her fertility. I prescribe three pairs of Chinese medicine for my wife to eat, and after eating, if the menstrual period returns to normal, it is entirely possible to conceive a baby again. ”

"If so, thank you very much." Zhao Wuji said.

When she returned home, Mrs. Liu followed the doctor's instructions, and after taking the medicine, she was able to run the palace normally in the first month. Two months later, Mrs. Zhao became pregnant.

During the Chongyang Festival in the following year, Mrs. Zhao successfully gave birth to a son, and the successor was named Zhao Benchuan, whose scientific name was Chongyang.

After Xiao Chongyang was born, Zhao Wuji picked up his powdery and jade-like son and looked left and right, and couldn't put it down. The husband and wife cried with joy and shouted: "Our family has a son, and our old Zhao family has descendants!" The owner of Zhao Zhuang immediately instructed the housekeeper to reward the subordinates, and each person was rewarded with 300 tattoos. gave the midwife a red envelope of 20 taels of silver, which is the midwife's income for two years. He also sealed a red envelope of 100 taels of silver for Hu Tianyi and asked the servant to send it on a special trip. It is also to donate 1,000 taels of silver to the Puji Temple not far away, so that people can reshape the golden body of the Guanyin Bodhisattva in the temple.
