979 Ascended to the Father's Rank
An Lushan's marriage is just a small episode, and the second phase of the Changluo Highway project has been carried out in an intense and orderly manner.
Every day, a large amount of iron ore is dug out of the mine, the iron-making high-speed railway in Wangniudun has purified molten iron every day, driven by the river water, a large number of high-quality rails are available every day, and on the Changluo Highway, there are a large number of workers digging ditches and piling sleepers to lay railroad tracks every day, everything is busy and orderly.
God appreciates the face, in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the country and the people are safe, and the aftermath of the destruction of Tubo has been carried out, and the tribes and countries around the Tang Dynasty are very respectful to the Tang Dynasty, and the envoys who call the ministers and tributes are more and more year by year, and the Tang Dynasty is not only rich in food and clothing, the waist pole is high, and the speech is also confident, and the demeanor of the Heavenly Empire is increasingly revealed, which can be said to be a veritable prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Zheng Peng can say that there are many happy events, the general environment has improved, and the business is becoming more and more prosperous, the performance of Sanbao and the winery has repeatedly reached new highs, and the glass is selling crazy, not only selling glass mirrors, but also launching series such as glasses, glass bottles, glass lamps, glass ornaments, etc., making him full of money, and he can meet the huge expenses of the governor of Luolu without going into debt.
As the famous saying goes, it is too early to become famous and to make money.
June 16, the twenty-sixth year of Kaiyuan, is a big day worthy of honor for Zheng Peng, because this day is the day when Lu Shu is about to give birth.
Since Lu Shu became pregnant, she has been under key care, Cui Yuan is more concerned than Zheng Peng, and every once in a while he invited the imperial doctor from the palace to take the pulse of Lu Shu, and the daily meals are handled by experienced chefs.
Zheng Peng has been bent on Changluo Road recently, and he doesn't care enough about Lu Shu and Lin Xun'er, how dare he have an opinion at such an important moment, so he returned home on June 12, and waited for the arrival of a new life while accompanying Lu Shu.
"Ouch, it hurts..."
"Ma'am, use a little more force, yes."
"Inhale, exhale, yes, yes, yes, that's all, calm down first."
"Madam, the first time you give birth to a child is to suffer a little sin, don't be afraid, there are too many children to be delivered by the slave family, and they have a lot of experience."
The door was closed, and Lu Shu in the room was working hard for Linban, and from time to time he heard Lu Shu's painful screams, and outside the room, Zheng Peng and Cui Yuan were so anxious that they were about to turn around like a big enemy, and while turning, they pricked up their ears to listen to the movement inside, and when the two of them turned in circles, they occasionally bumped into each other.
In the past, Weng Son-in-law would have to say a few words, but today is different, Zheng Peng has no time to care, and Cui Yuan is too lazy to deal with Zheng Peng.
After waiting for half an hour, there was no movement inside, Zheng Peng said a little uncontrollably: "Why hasn't there been any movement, what are those midwives doing?" ”
Cui Yuan said angrily: "Isn't Lu Shu suffering for you?" Those midwives are the best midwives in Chang'an, why don't you invite yourself? I want to be a shopkeeper and bury it, and I still want to play prestige in front of the old man? ”
"Isn't this busy, at that time I said that I wanted to invite a midwife, it was the eldest father who took the initiative to say that it was wrapped up in you, why did you talk about this matter again?" Zheng Peng replied unceremoniously.
Less time with him does not mean that he does not care, but no matter how busy he is, Zheng Peng takes time back to live for a day or two every ten days, although the husband and wife cannot meet often, but they have been writing letters, which makes it more emotional.
"I will be busy, I won't see a promotion, I won't get rich, but I will spend my own money like reclamation."
"I earn the money myself, so I don't need to ask you how to spend it, right?"
Seeing Zheng Peng and Cui Yuan arguing, the subordinates looked at each other, and didn't know what to do for a while, Cui Yuan's henchman Huai'an gently pulled the housekeeper Cui Er and said: "Second housekeeper, Lang Jun and Uncle are quarrelling, do you want to go up together to persuade Erju?" ”
Huai'an is Cui Yuan's confidant, Cui Eryuan is Cui Yuan's second housekeeper, Lu Shu came over when she got married, and helped take care of Miss's property, both of them are Cui's house slaves, they grew up together since childhood, although they are the main ones, but the relationship between the two is good.
Cui Er shook his head and said: "Lang Jun values Miss the most, he has been in for so long, and he even drank the medicine to induce labor, and he has not moved for a long time, and he is irritable and has a few words, that is, to vent his emotions, don't look at the quarrel, in fact, they are all restrained, look, as soon as there is movement inside, they will stop immediately, if they don't let them mix a few words, maybe they will be even more depressed, if you take us out, are you happy?" ”
"That makes sense." Huai'an nodded, subconsciously tilted his head, and pretended not to see it.
Just as the two were arguing about the smell of gunpowder getting heavier and heavier, there was a "wow", and a cry suddenly came from the room.
This cry was loud and crisp, just like Huang Zhong Da Lu, who was full of the philosophy of life, for a while, there was a little sword crossbow Zhang Zheng Peng and Cui Yuan, and they immediately died down, and both of them showed an inexplicable joy in their eyes.
Crying means that the child has been delivered successfully, crying means that the two have grown up for another generation, and crying also means the arrival of a new life and the succession of blood.
Hearing the child's cry, Zheng Peng and Cui Yuan were happy, but the two didn't dare to relax, and stared at the door of the room together.
In ancient times, the level of medical care was not high, the survival rate of giving birth to children was much lower than that of later generations, there was no fetal examination, it was not clear whether it was a male or a female, whether the child was healthy was not known, whether adults and children were safe was not sure, and neither of them dared to celebrate in advance before getting the letter.
Fortunately, the two of them didn't have to wait long, and the door??" The squeak was opened, and a beautiful figure rushed out, Lin Xun'er said with a smile: "Congratulations to the husband, congratulations to Cui Lao, Sister Lushu gave birth smoothly, and the mother and son are safe." ”
When it came to the back, Lin Xunyi deliberately accentuated his tone.
Mother and child are safe!
These four words weigh as much as a thousand catties and are as expensive as ten thousand gold, Zheng Peng's original hanging heart suddenly relaxed, immersed in the joy of being a father.
Peace is enough, whether it is a man or a woman.
"Good, good, great!" Cui Yuan trembled a little when he spoke happily: "Shu'er is really good, one is a son, a hero, a great hero of the two families, good, good, great, the old man is also a person with great-grandchildren, hahaha." ”
Cui Yuan has worked hard all his life, enjoying the glory and wealth of the world, but unfortunately his children and grandchildren are thin, just a son, and only a granddaughter after his son ran away, which made him very regretful, when he woke up to the fact that his family was more worthy of his own cherishment than power, he was already powerless, and now he sees his great-grandson, no, his great-grandson was born, which is also the continuation of the bloodline, and his heart is ecstatic.
After returning to old age for a hundred years, Jiuquan saw that his son could also be served.
"Mrs., mother and son are safe, I wish the champion Hou Xi a noble son, and I also congratulate Cui Lao on his promotion to great-grandfather."
"Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master."
"Finally looking forward to the little master, great, congratulations to the young master."
This is the maidservant, the guard, and the subordinates have stepped forward to congratulate, Zheng Peng has already prepared, and shouted loudly: "Second housekeeper, reward, everyone has a share, never fail, add wine and tea tonight, and the monthly money will be doubled this month." ”
The atmospheric reward attracted a voice of gratitude.
Cui Yuan on the side was so happy, he personally rewarded the congratulatory subordinates, Zheng Peng gave a happy bag, he was happy, gave two, and got a congratulatory and grateful voice.
After the reward, Zheng Peng wanted to go in to see the child, but he was told to wait for a while, Lu Shu was feeding the child, and the maid said that the little master was eating milk and eating happily, for fear that someone would disturb him, so Zheng Peng was asked to wait for a while, Cui Yuan on the side was in a hurry to see his great-grandson, and he was silent when he heard it, even if it was Lu Shu's father, it was not good to break through while feeding.
Standing in front of the door and thinking about it, Zheng Peng called Cui Er over and asked him to send someone to deliver a letter to Yuancheng's hometown, and send the news of the happy son back to his parents, they were looking forward to this day, I don't know how long they have been looking forward to it, and they should be happy.
While waiting, Cui Yuan coughed dryly twice, and said casually: "Feiteng, you are also a person who does yes, have you thought of the child's name?" ”
Zheng Peng nodded and said: "I've thought about it a few, but I've been busy, and I haven't discussed it with Lu Shu, don't worry, Father, I'll listen to Shu'er's opinion and decide as soon as possible." ”
"Oh, can you check the ancient books for the name, and quote from the side?" Cui Yuan suddenly asked.
"It's all in my head, and it's inconvenient to be on the construction site, and I rarely read the classics."
Cui Yuan squinted at Zheng Peng, frowned lightly and said, "Do you have any research on the Book of Changes, and do you have any experience in the heavens and the earth?" ”
"Back to my father's words, no."
"Do you know the names and taboos of your ancestors?"
“... No. ”
"Do you have any experience in naming your birthday?"
"Nope."
Cui Yuan shook his head with some disappointment and said: "As soon as the old man heard that you got your name early, he felt that you were unreliable, you really had no hair on your mouth, and you couldn't do things well, as the old saying goes, one life, two luck, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue and five reading, six seven phases and eight gods, nine nobles and ten health, it is very important to give a good name, not only means auspicious and positive, must be taboo, pay attention to the complementarity of the five elements, what are you doing with your eyes staring so big, these are the most basic, forget it, I can't count on you for naming this thing, the old man is a great ancestor's troubles, Let's find someone who can start one. ”
Zheng Peng just wanted to say yes, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother the eldest father, I'll do this matter." ”
His own son, how can he let others do it for him with such a glorious name, Zheng Peng disagreed.
Cui Yuan, an old boy, said so beautifully, but in fact, he changed his law to fight for the right to take fame, and Zheng Peng was not fooled.
"Naming such an important thing, it must be the elders in charge, Feiteng, you are not here, you call the old man to be the father, and besides, aren't you busy building roads, although you are busy, with the father here, everything is not a problem."
"Come and get Sun Le when you are old, just look at the child more by the father, this kind of nerve-wracking thing, you can't be lazy to be Aye, it's better for the younger generation to come." Zheng Peng said confidently.
