Chapter 6: The Power of the Little Water Gun

Ling Lingqi was stained with the light of the young master of the Zhao family, and the 100-day banquet of the two of them was held together. Since Zhao Xilu was also a county lieutenant, on the day of the 100-day banquet of Zhao Youju and Ling Lingqi, there were many officials and gentry who came.

The county lieutenant and the archers under his command were another armed force in the Song Dynasty that maintained law and order at the grassroots level and symbolized centralized power. It is mainly to deal with local public security affairs and control grassroots society.

The county lieutenant is equivalent to the deputy county magistrate of a county, and is the chief assistant official of the county order with the county magistrate, and the grade is from eight to nine according to the size of the county.

The 100-day banquet has been popular among the people since the Northern Song Dynasty, because the mortality rate of newborn babies is relatively high at this time, and it is not easy to grow up, just like the emperor Ning Zong at this time, he had 8 sons, but they all died before they reached adulthood. Turning 100 years old is another important etiquette in the process of infant growth.

It is recorded in "Tokyo Menghualu": "The 100-day meeting for giving birth to a child is called a hundred times." "Dream Lianglu" also said: "When a child is born for 100 days, that is, 100 days, a feast is also held to celebrate." Since then, the custom has flourished. On this day, relatives and friends congratulated each other with clothes, food, and 100 locks. Hundred-year-old clothes are also known as "hundred family clothes", by the baby's grandmother in the child after the birth of the neighbors to ask for all kinds of cloth, made into clothes to wear on the baby's body, commonly known as wearing a hundred family clothes, symbolizing the elimination of disasters and auspiciousness.

A hundred-day-old baby grows up very fast, especially Ling Lingqi, his mother has plenty of milk, and under the nourishment of breast milk, this guy is white and chubby, very cute. In contrast, Zhao and Ju are not so good, perhaps because of the inheritance of the ancestors of the Zhao family, and many of the descendants of the Zhao family have not grown up well. The same is true of Zhao and Ju, who only look like a two-month-old baby.

Zhao Xilu was busy greeting the guests who came to Zhao's mansion to congratulate him, almost all the neighbors came, the Zhao family had a good reputation in Shanyin County, Zhao Xilu also had the reputation of a great benevolent person, and many neighbors on the left and right had received his help and help.

Among the guests who came were also gentry and officials, and when they saw that the Zhao family had two children sitting on the table at the same time, they were puzzled, how could this Zhao Xitong have only one wife, how could there be two babies of average size? Could it be twins?

Shanyin County made Liu Wencai say in surprise: "Brother Zhao, your lady gave birth to two sons?"

Zhao Xilu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Liu, you misunderstood." One of them was the son of my housekeeper, but the two children were born on the same night, less than an hour apart, don't you think it's strange?"

Liu Xian Ling said with a smile: "This is indeed rare. Brother Zhao is really sympathetic, and even this 100-day banquet was held together! But when I look at these two babies in your family, it seems to be different. The white and fat one is bigger, the eyes are dark, and he looks very smart, he will be a masterpiece of a generation in the future, and the baby must be Brother Zhao's son, right?"

Zhao Xitong just smiled bitterly and didn't speak, a small official next to him pulled Liu Xianling's sleeve and whispered in his ear: "My lord, that white fat baby is the son of the Zhao family, you just reversed!"

Liu Xianling smiled awkwardly, then rolled his eyes, and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhao, you look at my old eyes and dizzy, but the other baby is even more amazing! In particular, the back of his skull is high, with edges and shapes, which is called jade pillow and jade ring in the art of physicism. The Lord lives a long life and is good to nourish, and the Lord is rich. Congratulations to Brother Zhao for his joy! This kid will definitely soar to the sky in the future!"

It turned out that this Liu County Ling knew a little bit about the art of getting along, but what he had learned was only a little bit of skin, which came in handy at this time. After all, Zhao Xilu is a descendant of the clan, royal bloodline, if he is not praised, if he grabs the handle, he may even be arrested.

Zhao Xitong was also very happy when he heard it, although Liu Xianling said everything he could, but good words always sounded pleasing to the ear. In fact, they didn't pay attention to the fact that Zhao Heju, who was just more than three months old, had swirl hair on his forehead, and physiognomy, a child with whirlwind hair on his forehead would be harmful to his parents.

Ling Lingfa has also been busy, and he is responsible for recording how many congratulatory gifts have been given by the guests who came to congratulate him. From morning to noon, a total of more than 300 guests came to congratulate, of course, the congratulatory gifts sent by the guests were also for the Zhao family, there was no him, he was just a subordinate. Despite this, Ling Lingfa was still very happy, because he heard it very clearly, and the guests who came to congratulate were all talking about which of the two babies was the child of County Captain Zhao, but most people looked away, they thought that the fat and well-behaved one was County Captain Zhao's child.

Now that the guests have arrived, it's time for the ceremony. First of all, he has to recognize his uncle, but Ling Lingqi doesn't have an uncle, this time he can only follow Zhao and Ju together. The whole family is a rich family, so Quan's brother Quanli, that is, Zhao Heju's uncle, is very generous, and the gift is also a very valuable longevity golden lock, of course, it is for Zhao and Ju.

Although Zhao Xilang has never regarded Ling Lingfa as a subordinate, but as a diner of the Zhao family, that is, similar to the taxi raised by the princes in the Warring States Period.

Under Zhao Xiling's notification, Quan Li also prepared a gift for Ling Lingqi, but this gift was very ordinary, just a long-lived copper lock.

Although Quan Li was reluctant to be the boss in his heart, he couldn't help but listen to his brother-in-law's words, after all, Zhao Xitong was a descendant of the royal family. So Quan Li had to pick up Ling Lingqi with an unhappy face, but when he picked up the baby, he found that something seemed to be wrong, the three-month-old baby actually sneered at him, although it was only for a moment, he thought that he was dazzled, and he didn't care.

When Quan Li hung this long-lived copper lock on Ling Lingqi's neck, Ling Lingqi was very dissatisfied, this lock was copper and was completely bought from the stall, and the old guy looked at him with contempt, this old guy looked down on people, so he had to be punished. What should I do? The little guy's dark eyes rolled, and he immediately thought of a solution.

Hmph, can't I cure you? Ling Lingqi said in his heart, then let you taste the power of the master's little water gun! When Quan Li picked up Ling Lingqi with both hands and raised it to his chest, Ling Lingqi finally activated his little water gun at this time. At this time, it was already March 15, and the weather was starting to warm up, so Ling Lingqi's small clothes were not very thick, and she was wearing open crotch pants.

The small water gun aimed at Quan Li's face was a water dragon, and suddenly Quan Li's white and chubby face was full of child urine, and a lot of urine entered his mouth, which made Quan Li angry and embarrassed, at this time, he couldn't do anything in front of so many people, if there was no one, he would definitely throw the baby to the ground. This baby is so angry, why did he pee at this time? No, when Quan Li closed his eyes just now, he seemed to see a smug smile on the baby's face. How is this possible? How can such a big baby still be a whole person?

The little water gun successfully hit Quanli, Ling Lingqi was extremely proud in his heart, he looked at the face of the boy who was still holding his Quanli, and giggled.

The guests also burst into laughter when they saw this scene. This baby is so funny, not only did he sprinkle the whole family's face with a child's pee, but he was also having fun there.

Zhao and Ju next to him also giggled, and the two babies made everyone lean forward and backward. Ling Lingfa hurriedly picked up a towel and ran to Quan Li's side, helped him scrub it, and apologized: "Master Quan, I'm really sorry! Xiao'er probably drank too much milk today, that's why I let you do this, you must take it to heart!"
