Chapter 386 Needless to say, the He family was overjoyed to have their eldest grandson.
On the third day of the third lunar month, all the relatives were invited.
He Zijin also prepared a generous christening gift for his nephew.
Jiang Ren and Hu Wen both came over. , Governor Yu and Mrs.
Yu also arrived.
During the third bath, relatives were usually invited, and after the full moon was over, relatives and friends were also invited.
Fortunately, I was still in confinement, and my complexion was much better than the day I gave birth.
Her brows were full of joy, and she leaned on the bed and talked.
Mrs.
Yu first looked at her great-grandson and said with a smile, "It's only been two days since we last met, and the child looks completely different again."
Fortunately, I have a son, and everything is ready.
As long as I look at my son, the tenderness in his eyes seems to melt, "I can't tell if I guard him every day."
Madam He sat on the small kang near the window and said, "Every day in a child's home is the same."
The third girl, He Qi, all praised the child's good looks.
A Xi leaned over to look at her little cousin, and she told the truth after just one look, "What's so good-looking?
He's so ugly."
He Zijin smiled and said, "Don't talk about others, you are not as good as a little cousin when you were born."
Axi said, "I don't believe it."
"If you don't believe it, we have all seen it.
You were born like this."
He said.
Axi opened her mouth half-open, and then said for a long time, "There is a strange saying about women's eighteenth transformation."
It made all the women in the room laugh.
Even Yu Xing laughed so hard.
Mrs.
Shen smiled and said to her granddaughter, " Come back when the moon is full and you will know whether your little brother is beautiful or not."
Axi nodded and asked, "Grandma, does my cousin have a name?"
Shen said, "It's done.
My name is He Can."
He Zijin said, "This is the name given by my father."
Shen smiled, "Yes, your father had chosen the name half a year in advance."
He Lao Niang said, "Agong also knows that he is a grandson.
No, he chose the name in advance."
Shen laughed, "The old lady was wrong.
The master has already chosen the names of both boys and girls.
I see that he has chosen the names of all the great-grandchildren in one go."
He Zijin said, "Can means brilliant.
Our family's life is getting better and better, so this name is appropriate."
The third girl smiled, "Uncle is a good name."
He Qi also said yes.
No one can deny that the He family is now very lucky.
Although it is not a family that is waiting to fly into the sky, the He family is really prosperous.
Not to mention others, just looking at the heirs, it was originally passed down alone for several generations.
In Ah Lie's generation, there were three brothers.
Ah Lie was the eldest son, and the first born was a son.

Of course, the first birth, whether it is a child or a child, is painful.
But everyone still expects more from their son.
In fact, it is not just the He family, but also Jiang Ren and Hu Wen.
One is a single descendant and the other is a commoner.
They have no brothers.
Now the family is also prosperous.
He Qi said, "My uncle is a scholar and a learned man, so he immediately gave him a name.
Our family's two and three treasures don't even have a name yet.
I'm really worried."
Mrs.
Jiang said quickly, "I'll ask Aren to get it when I get back."
He Qi smiled, "If you don't take out Dabao's names, I won't let him eat dinner tonight."
Mrs.
He smiled and said, "The name Dabao is quite good."
He Qi said, "Look at the name Acan, which means brilliant and brilliant.
The name Ayao of the Double Ninth Festival also means brilliance.
The two characters Xiye both symbolize light.
As for my child, Dabao, two treasures and three treasures are very popular. ”
Everyone was delighted to hear this, and Mrs.
He suddenly felt enlightened and said to herself, oh, it turns out that the names of great-grandsons and great-great-grandsons have so many hidden meanings.
Indeed, they are worthy of being named by the Jinshi masters.
Thinking that both her son and grandson-in-law were so good at naming, Mrs.
He couldn't help but feel proud.
After talking to each other, the child began to moan and cry.
Yu Xing picked it up and touched it.
He didn't urinate.
He said, "Maybe he is hungry."
It's not that he is hungry, but he must be hungry.
The little guy closed his eyes and hugged his mother's chest.
Yu Xing hurriedly asked the maid to put down the curtain while she fed the child.
Mrs.
Yu also said, "Aren't we ready to have a wet nurse?"
Yu Xing said, "I don't know why I'm so conceited.
I didn't have any milk on the first day, so I was fine with the wet nurse's milk.
The next day I had milk, and I felt bloated, so I fed her once.
From then on, I didn't have any more milk."
I’m willing to take the wet nurse’s milk.”
Mrs.
Shen and Mrs.
Yu laughed and said, "Yesterday, the whole family was in a hurry, so they drank A-Xing's milk once in the morning.
When lunch was about to be eaten, they started to make a fuss.
No matter how hard the wet nurse fed her, she couldn't feed her.
As soon as A-Xing hugged her, she I stopped crying, cradled him in A-Xing’s arms, fed him once, then went to sleep, and refused to ask the wet nurse to feed him again.
It was really annoying.”
He Lao Niang said, "This mother-in-law is different, she has blood to control her."

Mrs.
Yu smiled and said, "It's really strange."
For a while, I was lucky enough to feed the child, and the little guy closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
Yu Xing poked the child's nose lightly and whispered, "He will definitely be picky in the future."
Madam He said hurriedly, "Don't poke the bridge of your nose, it will poke the shorter ones."
Yu Xing hurriedly pinched her son again, as if to raise the bridge of his nose, which made everyone laugh inwardly.
The third banquet was naturally very sumptuous, and Mrs.
He, who had a great-grandson, almost ate too much wine.
After the relatives said goodbye, He Zijin helped his grandmother go to the house to rest.
He Lao Niang kept holding her son's hand and said, "Tell your father that you have a great-grandson.
This is our Lao He."
This is a great news for the family.
Tell the ancestors that I have made our Lao He family prosperous."
Although He Gong drank a lot and ate a lot, he was still not drunk after all.
Hearing his mother's long-winded words, he was not at all impatient.
He still responded patiently, "Yes, I'll go tell dad right now, too."
Tell your grandparents, don’t worry, Mom, our family is prosperous because of your blessing.”
"Although you know how to make progress, it's because I never forget to burn incense for you."
Mrs.
He was not very humble when she was sober, and even less so when she was drunk.
He Gonglian claimed so.
Mother He took her son's hand and whispered a big secret, "For this baby, I put twenty taels of sesame oil money on the Buddha and asked the Buddha to bless me to have a great-grandson.
It can be seen that the Buddha is spiritual. " He Zijin said, "Grandma, you are really looking for something far away.
You have those twenty taels.
Why don't you ask me to make a divination for you?
I will make a divination for only ten taels."
"Don't I think that Buddha is more powerful and more effective than you?"
Afraid that her girl Pian Zi would be unhappy, He Lao Niang said, "Next time, I'll come to you for divination next time if I have trouble.
The only thing is, you are not allowed to accept me.
"Silver."
She didn't know whether she was really drunk or pretending to be drunk.
Anyway, she was very clear about the money involved.
When He Zijin returned home, he told A-Nian, "It's a good thing that A-lie has a son.
Otherwise, I don't know how my grandmother would be disappointed."
A-Nian smiled and said, "It's inevitable for the first great-grandchild that my grandmother will be more thoughtful."
Ah Xi listened to her parents talking and also said, "Great-grandma's mouth is laughing to the ears."
Ah Nian smiled and scolded, "You can't use such words when talking about elders.
These words can only be used when talking to ordinary people, you know?"
Axi didn't understand her age, so she couldn't help but ask her parents, "Acan is so ugly, why is my great-grandmother so happy?"
He Zijin said, "You are also a person who has studied.
The sages say that if you judge a book by its appearance, you will lose its beauty.
Newly born children are all the same.
When the twins were just born, you said they were ugly.
Now the twins are still ugly.
Ugly?"

A Xi said, "It depends on who you compare with.
I am much worse than Dobby, but I look much better than A Can."
"You are the only one who is good-looking."
He Zijin really didn't know how her daughter grew up to be such a beauty, so she taught her daughter, "You have to judge people by their character.
What's the use of being good-looking?
If you only look good, you have no ability.
That’s called an embroidered pillow.”
"I, there is no embroidery on my pillow."
A Xi said, "Brother Dabao's pillow has embroidery.
Mom, does Brother Dabao have an embroidered pillow?"
He Zijin has developed infinite patience since becoming a mother and said, "How do you know there are embroideries on Dabao's pillow?"
"Brother Chongyang joked about Brother Dabao, saying that Brother Dabao had an embroidered pillow, so we secretly went to take a look.
Sure enough, Brother Dabao was sleeping on an embroidered pillow."
Axi emphasized, "I have never slept on an embroidered pillow.
"The embroidered pillow will be worn out and there will be marks on my face.
My pillow is not embroidered, and I am not an embroidered pillow."
He Zijin said, "The embroidered pillow is a metaphor, which means that this person is both good-looking and useless.
Your Dabao brother is good-looking, good at studying, and can save money to live.
So, he is both good-looking and useful."
Not an embroidered pillow.”
Axi said quickly, "I am the same.
I am good-looking, can study, and can save money to live."
It was the first time that He Zijin heard someone boasting like this.
He couldn't laugh or cry at once.
He asked Axi, "How much pocket money have you saved now?"
Since the children were five years old, He Zijin would give each of them one tael of pocket money a month.
This money is not much for a big family, but it is not too little for a small family.
Once the allowance is given out, the children can spend it as they please.
As for Ah Ye, he likes to buy paper and pens.
I don’t know what his hobby is.
There are all kinds of paper and pens at home, but Ah Ye still has to go to the store to buy them with money.
As for Axi, she liked buying silk flowers at first, but later her aesthetics improved, and she didn't like the silk flowers in shops outside so much, but she would use them all if she had a monthly allowance.
It can be said that both the son and the daughter are moonlight goods.
He Zijin also heard A Xi boasting, and then he remembered to ask her about her savings.
A Xi is a little bit beautiful and a little mysterious, "I can't say it now."
"Is there anything you can't say?
I know you've run out of money a long time ago."
"Who said that about me?"
Ah Xi used to have a bad temper, but this time she held back her words, but made her mother curious.
The more her daughter kept quiet, the more He Zijin wanted to ask.
Finally, Axi couldn't stand her mother's pranks and simply said, "I'm going to pick up the twins" and ran away.
He Zijin said "chee" and said to himself, "What a mysterious thing, I don't want to know yet."
Then he saw Ah Nian smiling sullenly and asked, "Do you know?"
A Nian smiled, "A little bit."
"What the hell is going on?"

"Axi's money was used to invest in shares."
"What kind of stock?"
"We bought a shop in the Double Ninth Festival.
We don't have enough money on hand, and we don't dare to tell the third sister, so we just ask a few of them to raise the money.
Axi spends all the money on weekdays, but she has some lucky money for the New Year.
There are dozens of taels.
In addition to Aye, Dabao, and Erlang, I heard that I had three hundred silver, so I bought the shop and waited for the dividends at the end of the year. " He Zijin said, "Oh, this kid from Chongyang is so courageous.
At such a young age, he dares to get three hundred silver to go to the shop and let the third sister know that he must be punished."
Ah Nian smiled, "I'm really ordinary in studying during the Double Ninth Festival, but I have Brother Awen's cleverness in doing business."
"You are still young after all, it would be better if you study for two more years."
Anian said, "You have to look at people to study.
If you really don't have the talent, it's useless to beg for nothing.
If the child's heart is not focused on this, it's useless."
"Does Brother Awen know about this?"
"Brother Awen just turned a blind eye.
You know it.
Don't let the third sister know.
If the third sister knows, she will have to beat Chongyang."
He Zijin found it funny when he thought about it, and said, "I know."
He then asked, "Where is the shop?
Chongyang is young, so don't let others trick you."
"How can the shop diagonally across from the Ping'an Street School be bad?"
"The shop on Ping'an Street was sold for three hundred silver."
A Nian smiled, "It turned out that Wen Tongzhi's tribe was selling salt there.
Wen Tongzhi left office, and the salt business would be difficult to do in the future.
Wen Tongzhi was in a hurry to go to Jinzhong to take up his post, so Mr.
Wen I stayed here to finish the business of the shop, so Chongyang didn’t know how he got to know this Mr.
Wen.
He went back and forth, and Mr.
Wen also looked at our family.
Face, besides, he didn’t own this shop in the first place.
It was the Huo family who flattered Wen Tongzhi to go his way and respected his shop.
Mr.
Wen did it as a favor before he left.
This guy Chongyang was also clever and let Ah.
Brother Ye Jun sat with him several times, and Mr.
Wen was very clever in this matter.
He made a price of three hundred, half sold and half given away, so he bought the shop on Chongyang Festival
.
"
He Zijin was quite emotional and said, "You are such a villain.
Chongyang is only so old, but he already knows how to use tiger skin to make a big banner."
Chongyang may not have much dignity, but Ah Ye and Brother Jun are different.
One is the young master of the Tongzhi family, and the other is the young master of the Wenzheng family.
These children, He Zijin was filled with emotion when he thought about Chongyang's tricks of pretending to be powerful.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
He couldn't help but said, "This man is too stupid, but don't be too clever.
If you get used to taking advantage of others, you will not be practical in the future.
Chongyang put I'm afraid I'll make more than three hundred taels if this shop changes hands."
Anian said, "He didn't do it for the purpose of changing hands.
If he wanted to earn the money from the change of hands, he should have beaten him.
The family is not short of money, so why should they come forward and ask people to half-sell and half-give it away?
This face is too worthless.
Chongyang has already made plans to open a bookstore. " He Zijin smiled, "I learned this idea from Brother A Ren."
A Nian smiled, "I guess so.
Brother A Ren is currently focusing on the grain and grass business, and he can't take care of the bookstore.
Here in Chongyang, the capital is limited anyway, and if you open a bookstore opposite the government school, you can't at least lose money. ” He Zijin said, "There are already two bookstores opposite the Fuxue School.
This one on Chongyang Festival is Xuan."
A Nian smiled and said, "Anyway, Ah Xi and Ah Ye have invested all their money in the bottom of the box.
It's good to make a profit, and it doesn't matter if they lose.
Let's learn a lesson.
Don't think that business is so easy to do, and you think that opening a business is easy."
The money comes from the shop.”
He Zijin laughed out loud when he thought about the failure of his business and the loss of his children's private money.
Putting aside the children's business for the time being, He Can's full moon wine has not yet arrived, and the imperial court's decree to allow Governor Yu to serve as an official has finally arrived.
The imperial court is not aggrieved to this old governor who has worked in Beichang Mansion for more than 20 years, and the reward is quite generous.
It was generous, and as Beichang officials expected, Governor Yu's successor would direct farmland and participate in politics to fill the vacancy of the governor.
After the handover, Governor Yu could return to the imperial capital with his family.
In his entire life, Governor Yu was born into a family of officials and had excellent qualifications.
However, his career as an official was bumpy in the first half of his life.
As soon as he was elected, he returned home to observe filial piety for more than ten years.
After that, when he became an official, he chose people like Beichang Prefecture.
A bitter cold place.
Along the way, from county magistrate, general magistrate, tongzhi, magistrate, tutor, political participant, and governor, I basically went through all the officials in Beichang Prefecture, and spent decades working on this land.
Although there were two chances of becoming an official, Governor Yu couldn't help but get wet in his eyes when he received the order to become an official.
However, he has been in Beichang Prefecture for decades.
Under his governance, Beichang Prefecture has not only been smooth and peaceful, but it has also been said that Beijing Pass was captured by bandits a few years ago.
General Xiang, the general of Beijing, He died in battle, and under the auspices of Governor Yu, Beichang Mansion was not attacked by the bandits, keeping the entire city safe.
Therefore, despite the sadness in his heart about aging out of office and the nostalgia for leaving this land, Governor Yu still has no regrets.
Tian Shenzheng personally helped the old man up.
Even though he was happy about being promoted, he was also reluctant to say goodbye.
Most of the officials in the governor's yamen couldn't bear to part with this old man.
This old man was said to be incorruptible when he was in office, but he would never wrong them.
His rule was clear and the people lived in peace.
Although he was a little big-hearted, he said at this time.
Speaking of this old man, I have to say that he is a good official.
The decree has been issued.
In fact, what should be handed over by the Yamen has already been handed over.
From the moment he was given the chance to become an official, Governor Yu only took care of the general affairs of the magistrate's office, and other detailed matters were left to Tian Shenzheng.
Mrs.
Yu has already started packing things, and today the decree has been issued, which is nothing more than a formal handover procedure.

Furthermore, the imperial court rewarded Governor Yu with a thousand taels of silver for his hard work and merit.
This was not a lot of money, but it was very honorable.
Governor Yu was not short of money, so he immediately used it in the government school to share with Du Ti.
Xuedao said, "This year is the year of autumn, and next year is the year of spring.
This money is not much.
When students go to the supervising yamen to apply for the spring examination, each student will be given a few taels.
Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is also my heart."
Du Tixue was moved and said, "My lord cares for them so much.
If we don't achieve something in the spring next year, I will be sorry for my heart."
When everyone saw that Governor Yu had used the imperial court's silver reward to fund the project next spring, they couldn't help but flatter him.
Governor Yu patted Du Tixue's hand, smiled slightly and called Tian Shenzheng to come forward, asking Tian Shenzheng to prepare to hand over the work with him immediately.
The He family knew about Governor Yu's intention to become an official on that day.
Yu Xing couldn't move during confinement, and felt a little anxious.
Half of her joy at having her son was gone, and she said to her husband, "I thought my grandfather would be able to survive this year.
It's such a cold day, and it's two days."
Old man, how do you get started?"
Ah Lie said, "Don't be anxious.
I'll go over and see my grandma.
Although the imperial court has allowed him to serve, my grandpa is still the governor of a place.
At least he can't leave office until he has settled the matters in hand.
If you're not in a hurry, why don't you invite me?"
The two old people are coming to live in our house and they will leave in the spring next year. " After hearing this, Yu Xing smiled and said, "That's what I mean.
Go quickly.
If there is anything to take care of, help take care of it."
"I know, you are so worried about your son, so don't be anxious.
My grandfather has already announced his official appointment twice.
At this old age, it is appropriate for him to become an official.
It's a bit cold now.
Let's leave our grandparents at home to celebrate the New Year.
Old man Why don't you take a look at Ah Can when you're free?"
Ah Lie said.
Yu Xing became even more happy and asked the maid to find some clothes for her husband to change into.
Ah Lie said, "My body is quite good."
Yu Xing said, "It's okay to stay at home.
Since my grandfather is an official, there must be a lot of visitors at home.
My grandfather has to be busy with the yamen.
When you go, you must help with the entertainment."
He ordered the maid to serve.
While her husband was changing his clothes, Ah Lie was impatient with the maid's service, so he put on his robe and went out.
Buddha's Hand also said, "My uncle is really hot-tempered.
Every time he can't hold his clothes properly, he goes out and wants to be seen by outsiders.
Wouldn't it mean that grandma didn't take care of my uncle's clothes well?"
After giving birth to a son, the love between the couple became even stronger.
After hearing this, Yu Xing just smiled and said, "My husband is very impatient, so there is nothing we can do about it."
Ah Tian smiled, "It depends on the person.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
In the past, grandma would take care of the uncle herself.
How could the uncle become impatient?
The uncle is impatient because he is also impatient with us.
It is extremely rare for an uncle to be as respectful as our uncle."
Buddha's hand said hurriedly, "Isn't it?
I heard that Miss Wang from Jinning's family used to compete with other girls.
Miss Wang married the second son of the Li family, the minister of the Ministry of War.
It was said that it only lasted a month.
Then, The second young master took the wife as his wife, so he really paid attention to the Wang family girl. " Yu Xing said, "Why don't I know when it happened?"
Bergamot said, "This is what my parents told me when they returned to the imperial capital last year to give New Year's gifts.
At that time, the girl had just found out that she was pregnant, so I was so busy that I forgot about it."
Yu Xing sighed falsely, "She has always been a high-minded person.
Because her aunt married Jingnan Gong, she had to be from a famous family.
The Li family is said to be a close branch of Yong'an Marquis.
However, who doesn't know that Mrs.
Li is a She is a pampered son.
She is just trying to show off, and this can be regarded as benevolence."
In fact, Yu Xing had quite a bad relationship with Miss Wang when they were in the boudoir, otherwise Foshou wouldn't be able to tell Miss Wang's jokes.
Fortunately, I listened.
Fortunately, I married into the He family at that time, and my marriage also caught up with Miss Wang's marriage.
Now that I heard that Miss Wang married such a playboy, and that I had given birth to my eldest son safely, I didn't want to worry about it.
The three masters and servants gloated over their misfortune, mainly because I was lucky that everything was going well now, so they relieved the sadness of leaving their grandparents to return to their hometown.
After hearing the news, Mrs.
Shen came over and said a lot of words of relief to her, and also had lunch with her.
Fortunately, she had her rival, the Wang family, to compare with her, and she realized more and more that although she married into a small family, she was living a good life.
Nothing goes as planned.
Ah Lie went to visit his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, and he really helped a lot.
As Yu Xing said, there must be many people who want to visit.
Governor Yu is now going to hand over the political affairs to Tian Shen.
Mrs.
Yu is a female dependent, and these people are socializing Things are much cheaper if Alie is there.
Ah Lie didn't go home until evening, and Mrs.
Yu wanted to keep him for dinner.
Seeing that Mrs.
Yu looked tired, Ah Lie said, "Grandpa has been busy at the Yamen all day and is tired.
Grandma takes care of everything at home.
I can’t come over for dinner anytime.
You two have a good rest today, and I’ll come back tomorrow.”
Mrs.
Yu said, "Autumn is approaching now.
You should study at home.
Don't delay."
Ah Lie smiled and said, "Studying has always been accumulated over many years.
If you study in one or two days, you can't afford to delay it.
Don't worry, grandma, I know it well."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
When Mrs.
Yu talked with Governor Yu, they both felt that this grandson-in-law was considerate.
Ah Lie was not only considerate, he also went to his sister's house and said to her, "My daughter-in-law is having her confinement period and she can't leave the house.
Our mother still has to take care of the housework and we can't leave her.
My grandmother is getting older.
I look at her mother."
My mother-in-law is really tired, and we are not outsiders.
Sister, if you have time, go over tomorrow and later, and help entertain those who sent people over to talk and ask my mother-in-law to have a rest.
Otherwise, I'm really afraid that she hasn't left yet, so first Tired and sick."
He Zijin smiled and said, "It's easy.
I'll go tomorrow.
I have nothing to do at home.
Originally, I was thinking about her, so I told her to go over and have a look."
Since the He family got married to the Yu family, He Zijin Jin also knew some of the rules of a wealthy family.
In fact, the mistress of a wealthy family did not have to do physical work.
She only had mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law, and maids, and the main thing was to worry about them.
Especially if you have a lot of things at home, and people often send people over to say hello, deliver messages, talk, etc., your family must have someone to support you.
Such a person cannot be a slave, otherwise it will be a slap in the face.
Therefore, Mrs.
Yu has to take care of the affairs of the Yu family's inner house.
In the past, it was nothing if there were less things.
Now Governor Yu is about to leave office.
Governor Yu has been in Beichang Mansion for decades and is very good at being an official.
Now he is leaving.
Ren, not to mention that the officials of Beichang Prefecture have to do their best, even if they have some relationships with them from the past, they have to come to talk to them.
The two families were originally in-laws.
Not to mention that Yu Xing was now well, even if he was still as dazed as before, He Zijin would not fail to help if he could.
He Zijin agreed, and Ah Lie smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll come over tomorrow and pick up my sister on the way."
He Zijin originally said that she could just go there, but then she thought, since Ah Lie asked her to go, it would be better to let the Yu family know about Ah Lie as a favor, so he smiled and said, "You come earlier, I guess There's a lot going on at my in-laws' place, so I have to go there early and talk to my in-laws first."
Ah Lie responded with a smile.
He Zijin smiled and said, "I won't let you eat anymore.
I am thinking of A Xing and A Can."
Ah Lie stood up and said, "As soon as she heard about the imperial court's decree, she felt uneasy and urged me to come over.
If I don't go back and tell her now, she will still remember it."
He Zijin smiled and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, very happy that they were getting along well as a young couple. gd1806102:
