Chapter 294: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad

December 25, 2757 (1916).

Whether it was the Germans' lack of preparation and did not launch an attack, or Wilhelm II's desire to let the officers and soldiers at the front have a good holiday, or some other reason, the Hans who landed on the ground had a happy Christmas Eve and did not bother the frightened cattle at all.

But even if the Germans didn't move, the British couldn't be calm. Dover is only a few dozen kilometers away from London, and it can be said that the morning and evening are coming, and the nerves of the British are not so thick.

But the dignified British Empire will not be so cowardly, the second German son just occupies Dover, just drive them into the sea, it is not a big deal, but for now London must be kept first. As a result, the British government frantically mobilized all the troops to reinforce London, built fortifications on the one hand, and mobilized all the citizens of London to defend London with arms. King George V himself gave a speech on the radio, claiming that the British Empire had reached its most dangerous time and demanded that all British citizens do their duty.

As the No. 1 empire on earth, the British at this time were also very high-spirited, and this blow was not enough to demoralize them. After the king's speech, all Londoners were mobilized, and many of them spontaneously participated in the construction of the defensive line, and the British government opened the arsenal and distributed a large number of weapons to the people.

The people of London were outraged, the dignified British Empire was actually invaded by people, or was it invaded by such a small and deflated country as Erdezi, and it was really unbearable! Everyone took up arms and the Germans angrily!

However, although they were full of morale and confidence, they had too little time left. Moreover, there are not many building materials in London here, and it is not an easy matter to build fortifications on frozen land.

At 8 o'clock London time on the 25th, the German army, which had rested all night, officially launched an attack on London.

The experience of intimidating the world for a hundred years, and the history of not being attacked by foreign countries for 800 years, greatly reduced the vigilance of the British, who had never imagined that their own country would be invaded. There weren't many ready-made fortifications around London, and even the forts were centuries old. And in just two days, it was not enough for them to build many fortifications.

As a result, now they are paying for their paralysis. Under the blows of German aircraft artillery, the Germans advanced very quickly, and the antique fortifications did not hinder them much, and by three o'clock in the afternoon, the Germans had broken through the outer defenses of London, Maidstone and Chatham, and the German vanguard was less than thirty kilometers from London, and they could even see the bell tower (Big Ben) of Westminster Abbey.

The whole world was stunned by the actions of the Germans. Global public opinion is in an uproar, and everyone has a feeling that the three views have been subverted, and of course, it is more of a pleasure to watch the fire from the other side. For the vast majority of people, there will be a kind of schadenfreude when they see a usually high-ranking and invincible overlord suddenly fall into the clouds. If it is a person who is usually bullied by this overlord and holds back his belly, this sour feeling will rise geometrically.

The masses of people on the planet have said:

", Niu Niu, you also have today!"

"Let you be a cow, make you noble and cold, now it's a fool, waka ka kaka......"

"I deserve it!" This is the most joyful thing I've heard this year!"

Well, it's pretty much something like that. Except, of course, for the British themselves, who are now going mad.

Hanjing No. 1 Public Hospital.

Just when the eyes of the whole world were attracted by the "Battle of London", the vast number of Chinese people did not have time to care about the broken things in Europe, and their attention was attracted by this hospital.

Reporters from various government agencies, the military, enterprises and institutions, non-governmental organizations, and major media outlets have surrounded the hospital since yesterday evening. The square outside the hospital was crowded with people who had organized themselves spontaneously, not only residents of the capital, but also many people from other places. These people all stared at the hospital with nervous and expectant eyes.

At this time, Wen Desi, who was in the conference room of the hospital, looked at the crowd outside, sighed very embarrassed and said: "Hey, I really don't understand, what does it matter to them that my wife has a child? Look at their expressions, how can they make it more nervous than me......

"Tradition, tradition, this is the traditional habit of our country...... Xinghai, you grew up abroad, and you may not know much about the importance that Chinese people attach to the inheritance of their children, so it is normal for them to react like this. Yuan Shikai said with a smile. In today's China, there are only a few people who can call Wen Desi "table character" in person.

Wen Desi said a little depressedly: "Even if it is important, it is also my private matter, is it worth coming from so far to see?

Tao Chengzhang said with a smile: "Hahahaha, Xinghai, this kind of thing is a private matter for others, but you are the head of state, so it's different." The masses are concerned about this matter, which shows that the people want it......"

Wen Deji himself knows that if you want to tell the Chinese of this era that "I am not the emperor, and my son is not the prince, so you don't have to be so nervous" or something, it is all nonsense, and thousands of years of customs are so easy to change.

Not to mention ordinary people, even high-ranking officials of the Science and Technology Socialist Party and the government, aren't they also very nervous? Before Gu Xiaolu was admitted to the hospital, the boss asked several of his wives to come over to help. In this conference room today, most of the central high-level leaders have not gathered.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with a cult of personality, as long as it is not done on purpose. Many of the so-called "anti-personality cults" are nothing more than talking about grapes and saying that grapes are sour. What's so bad about being loved? Do you have to be indifferent to it, even hated by God, to be a qualified ruler?

At this time, the taxi with the "Hongyun" logo printed on the door of the three cars stopped next to the hospital square, and a big fat man squeezed out of the car with a sweaty head, he looked at the crowd in the square that still seemed quiet, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The driver also got out of the car and said to him: "Boss, look, Gu Niangniang is not born yet." It wouldn't have been so quiet......"

Shen Minlong hurriedly instructed the people who got out of the other cars: "Well, it's okay, it's okay, Xiao Liu, Xiao Wang, quickly, take out the gifts...... Jia Laosan, bring the incense candle to ......"

Shen Fatzi came by airship from Guangzhou overnight, and his Hongyun Company also had a branch in Hanjing, specializing in taxis. Before he got on the airship, he immediately made a long-distance call to inform the branch office to send a car to pick him up at the airport.

There were too many people near the square, and Shen Minlong's group of people were carrying large bags and small bags and shuttling through the crowd with difficulty.

"My mother, have all the people from Hanjing come here?" Shen Minlong was already sweating profusely in a few minutes, and couldn't help but complain.

A man in a suit said dissatisfiedly: "Fatty, what are you squeezing? Don't you see that there are people here? What if you bump into an old man or a child? If you want to see a doctor, go through the side door or the back door, and there is no one there." ”

Shen Minlong's fat face was immediately filled with a smile: "Hehe, this brother, I'm sorry." I'm not here to see a doctor, I'm here from Guangzhou, congratulations to Mr. Wen for his ......"

When the man heard this, his expression improved: "You are not the only one who came to congratulate, look at here and there, they are all ...... I don't think you can squeeze in like this, so just wait here. Just now, Vice Premier Yuan has already told everyone that the hospital will send someone to announce as soon as there is news......"

Shen Minlong looked at the crowd in front of him that was crowded like sardine cans, and then estimated his figure, but still gave up the plan to squeeze to the front.

At this time, a policeman came up, looked at them, and said, "Hey, why do you still have incense and candles? There are rules here, you can't light these things, it will affect the patients in the hospital." He also knew what these people were doing, and added: "It's also bad for mothers and newborns......

"Okay, okay, don't order, don't order......" Shen Minlong hurriedly agreed.

After he stopped where he was, he started chatting with the person next to him.

"Hey, you say, did the president's wife give birth to a little boy or a little miss this time......"

"Of course, it's the best dragon and phoenix fetus!"

"Cut, that's a cunning answer!"

"Didn't Mr. Wen himself say that having children and daughters are the same? ”

"It's almost the same to say this kind of thing when you have all the children! Now it's the first one in Mr. Wen, and the eldest son is different!"

"You're old in the old way. Even if it's a little princess, it's not bad, anyway, Mrs. Gu is still young, and the other ladies haven't moved......"

Shen Minlong couldn't help but say: "Mr. Wen is so wise, of course he is the little prince!"

At that moment, a crowd of people who looked like college students questioned: "This gentleman, what does it have to do with having children in this life and whether you are wise or not?"

Shen Minlong glanced at him, and said confidently: "How can it be okay? Seeing that you are also a scholar, King Wen of Zhou knows, right? That is a saint, he gave birth to a hundred sons! Mr. Wen is not worse than him at all, of course he gave birth to a son......

As soon as he said this, the man immediately knelt down. A bunch of people around them all showed expressions of "he said so reasonably, I was speechless".

There was a lot of talk about the newborn.

About half an hour later, the hospital still didn't move. Everyone was a little anxious, and they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

"Jia Laosan, is the technology of this hospital good?" Shen Minlong couldn't help but ask the manager of the branch.

"Boss, this is the best hospital in Hanjing......" Jia Laosan hurriedly replied.

Because there are too many high-level central officials waiting in the hospital today, and there are too many onlookers outside the door. For safety reasons, the main entrance is closed, and those who want to see a doctor and run errands are changed to the side and back doors. Just when everyone was a little out of breath, the originally closed main entrance of the hospital opened.

A middle-aged man in a white lab coat walked out with a happy face.

"Oh, that's Dean Liu coming out, there should be news...... someone who knew him immediately said.

Dean Liu picked up a microphone and said to everyone, "...... Citizens and compatriots, I am the President of this Academy, and I would like to announce good news to you. Our president's wife gave birth ten minutes ago, ...... said, as if he was deliberately selling off, pausing for a moment.

"Is it a son or a daughter?" someone immediately shouted.

"Ahem...... Dean Liu lowered his eyes, cleared his throat and said, "...... He is a little boy, weighing eight pounds and six taels, and he is a healthy and healthy fat boy! Mother and son are safe! Mother and son are safe!"

"Oh......" The square suddenly resounded with a tsunami-like cheer.

"Hahahaha, it's really the little prince! I'll just say! How is it?" Shen Fatty's face was full of fat and trembled with excitement, and he shouted to the people around him: "I'm right! Sure enough, it's the little prince! Hahahaha......

At this time, the man in the suit who was the first to talk to him next to him suddenly shouted: "In order to celebrate Mr. Wen's happy son, all customers who come to my Hetian Hotel today will have free drinks!!" I'm happy to see your magpie mouth, I'm in for a treat today, and if you don't go, you won't give me face......"

As soon as Shen Minlong heard this, he hurriedly said to Jia Laosan beside him: "Quick, go and inform me, all those who take the car today are free......!

In the hospital room.

Wen Deji looked at the baby on the bed, and his face was full of uncontrollable laughter.

"Xiaolu, it's really hard for you......" Wen Desi held Gu Xiaolu's hand tightly and said very sincerely. With 23rd-century medical technology and medical equipment, it is almost impossible to have a baby, but it is impossible not to be nervous. Now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, it's good that the child is safe......" Gu Xiaolu was still very weak, she looked at the baby next to her with motherly eyes, and smiled happily. "Oh, husband, what's the child's name?"

"Oh, I haven't decided yet, I've thought of a lot of names, I don't know which ......one to use," Wen Deji said with a confused expression.

Yuan Shikai said with a smile: "Xinghai, don't rush this big name, just pick it slowly, use the nickname first!"

"Nickname? Well, it's okay, anyway, it's within a week to get a hukou, and I'll think about it slowly in the past few days. Wen Desi nodded and said, "What is the nickname...... This year is the Year of the Dragon, so let's call it the Dragon Dragon......"

"Okay, good, this nickname is good! loud, catchy......" everyone said yes in unison.

While the British were fighting bloody battles to defend London, the whole country was celebrating on the Chinese side, and the masses everywhere spontaneously organized various celebrations. What is even more surprising is that the new territories of Korea, Ryukyu and Vietnam, and some old and young people who were reluctant to be Chinese, all died down and even changed their course after the news of the birth of Wen Deji's son.

For some time afterward, officials in the president's office were worried about a raft of gifts, but the government and the military complied with the rules, sending congratulatory messages instead of gifts. But this regulation can not restrict the people, many non-governmental groups and individuals have sent congratulatory gifts, although they also know the rules, do not send too valuable things, most of them are some local products and folk traditional gifts, but can not stand more. Seeing the gifts that have filled more than a dozen warehouses and are still increasing, the officials in the office are going crazy.
