Before the government test, Lou Xiao's son's full moon wine arrived.
Two days before going, Zhang Jin specifically asked Yuan Zhe about the customs here, prepared the corresponding gifts, and rushed to the town with Yuan Hong in a carriage.
Li Mingyin and Lou Xiao have made many friends in the town, and because of their "Xiao Zhai" relationship, the two are not small in the town. When Zhang Jin and Yuan Hong arrived, they were already full of guests.
The two of them are little-known people in the town. Although Yuan Hong's name is well known to everyone, few people really know him.
Most of the guys who helped in Lou Xiao's store were actually servants of Lou Xiao and Li Mingyin, including Uncle Wang. Therefore, in addition to helping in the store, these people are usually busy in the inner house.
Like this Full Moon Hotel, the business in the store was handed over to the two guys to watch, and the others came to help entertain the guests. The guys are all very familiar with Zhang Jin and the others. As soon as the two of them appeared, someone helped them lead the carriage and took them directly to meet Lou Xiao, Li Mingyin and the others.
When it arrived, Lou Xiao and Li Mingyin were both teasing the little doll, and the family of three looked so warm.
"You guys are here!" Li Mingyin raised his head with a smile at the corner of his mouth, and happened to see Zhang Jin and Yuan Hong who were brought in by someone.
"Well," Zhang Jin stepped forward, "I'll take a look at the little baby." After
a month's absence, the baby has grown a lot. The eyebrows and eyes are longer than before, although I can't tell who he looks like, but he will definitely be a very handsome little boy in the future.
Zhang Jin clenched his little fist lightly, and asked, "Have you got a name now?"
"It's called Li Muxu, nicknamed Dumpling."
"Hello, little dumpling." Zhang Jin smiled and said hello to the little doll.
"By the way, how long do you have left?" Lou Xiao asked, looking at Zhang Jin's stomach.
"Three months to go"
"Then you have to be careful, don't eat too much. I was hurt by Li Mingyin, and I ate so many dim sums! This dumpling weighed 5 pounds when it was born, and it cost me half my life!" Lou Xiao Bai glanced at Li Mingyin beside him.
Li Mingyin smiled awkwardly and said to Lou Xiao, "Madam, don't make trouble."
This place is no different from another world, where newborn babies of six or seven pounds are common, even eleven or twelve pounds. But it's different here. Maybe it's because of the structure. The weight of newborns here is generally not too heavy. A child like five pounds is already very heavy here.
After listening to Lou Xiao's words, Zhang Jin's face stiffened. In fact, in his heart, he was still very afraid of the arrival of the day of childbirth.
It didn't take long for the guests to arrive, and Zhang Jin and Yuan Hong entered the table together.
Li Mingyin and Lou Xiao attach great importance to their children's full moon wine, which can be seen from the dishes in the banquet. There are 18 dishes on one table, including twelve meat dishes, and several of them are expensive. The drinks are all ordered from the most famous tavern in Chang'an Town. Such a table of meals can at least be worth the cost of several months of ordinary people. It seems that these two are really rich.
When the crowd was staggering, suddenly there was a commotion at the gate.
A man in his 50s appeared in front of everyone. His clothes were low-key and inconspicuous, but he couldn't hide his exquisite workmanship and high-quality texture. His temperament is restrained, his face sinks like water, and his steps are steady. He is an existence that cannot be ignored.
"His martial arts is not low." Yuan Hong said in Zhang Jin's ear. From the first time he appeared, Yuan Hong knew that he was a trainer, and his martial arts must be good.
Hearing this, Zhang Jin looked at the person who suddenly appeared more curiously.
"Butler Xu?!" Lou Xiao couldn't help but blurt out when he saw the visitor's eyes widen.
"The Lou family in the capital came to celebrate the full moon of Young Master Li!" Butler Xu bowed to Lou Xiao and Li Mingyin.
Lou Xiao was in a hurry to say anything when he suddenly stared at the door in disbelief, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground in pieces. "...Mother...Father..."
At this time, the scene at the door caught everyone's eyes, and there were several luxurious carriages parked outside the door. The noble man was helped down from the carriage by the handsome servant, and was slowly entering the courtyard gate.
When Lou Xiao saw the person who came, tears fell, and he burst into tears, "...Mother and father..."
Everyone was surprised.
It turns out that this is actually Lou Xiao's mother and father, and the origin must be extraordinary! Back then, when Li Mingyin brought Lou Xiao back, everyone thought that Lou Xiao was someone who was rescued by Li Mingyin while he was rushing for the exam in Beijing. Because Lou Xiao was dressed in tattered clothes and looked in a trance at the time, and looked like he had experienced a great disaster. He didn't expect that it might not be the case...
Lou Xiao's mother and father came to him with a complicated expression , but there was difficulty in his eyes. Covering his moving face, a thousand words turned into just one sentence "Xiao Er". Lou Xiao burst into tears on the spot, unable to restrain himself.
"Let's go in and talk." Seeing that Lou Xiao couldn't help himself, Li Mingyin took him into his arms and said.
Mrs. Lou nodded and agreed, and entered the inner house with Li Mingyin and Lou Xiao.
The full moon ceremony is handled by Uncle Wang. People in Chang'an Town are not so particular about it. Most people come here with gifts and give them directly to the person who receives them, and some of them will be packaged. But I've never seen one who wrote a gift list.
Butler Xu handed a long gift list to Uncle Wang, and then let him carry all the things in. This scene is very shocking, the Lou family in the capital must be very rich, and there are 20 boxes of this full moon ceremony. There are countless children's clothes and shoes, and all kinds of cloth toys. Even the children's gold and silver jewelry was placed in a small box.
The whole audience was deeply shocked. Uncle Wang had never encountered such a scene before, so he couldn't react at the time. After he regained his senses, he immediately asked people to put everything away.
After such an appearance, everyone's thoughts about eating have faded a lot, and their attention has been attracted by these housekeepers and servants in the yard, and they are all curious about Lou Xiao's life experience.
Towards the end of the banquet, Lou Xiao and Li Mingyin came to the courtyard, apologized to everyone, then said goodbye to the guests, and asked the buddies at home to send everyone 8 red eggs to take back.
Zhang Jin and Yuan Hong also came forward.
"Thank you for your hospitality today, we are leaving." Zhang Jin said.
Lou Xiao smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's rare for you to come here."
"It's okay, I'll come to see you later. I'll take my leave."
After leaving Lou Xiao's house, Yuan Hong took Zhang Jin to visit again. In the hospital, the doctor gave them a detailed explanation of what to pay attention to afterward, and the two drove home in the carriage.
Two days later.
"Madam, what's the matter with you?" Yuan Zhe asked Zhang Jin in a daze.
"Ah, it's nothing." Zhang Jin continued his work again, he was trying to make a set of children's clothes. After a while, Zhang Jin couldn't help it, "That, Yuan Zhe..."
Yuan Zhe looked up at Zhang Jin, "Madam, tell me."
"...You know about having children. Is it?"
"It turns out that Madam is afraid of this. I haven't given birth, so I don't know very well. However, a person I knew before told me that it was easy to have a baby, and it came out all at once."
"Really?" Zhang Jin Of course, he knew that Yuan Zhe wanted to comfort him, but when he thought of the day Lou Xiao gave birth, he couldn't help but bring himself in. If he was Lou Xiao, would he be able to hold on at that time?
When she first became pregnant, Zhang Jin was not afraid at all. But as my belly gets bigger and bigger, I don't know why I can't help but feel a little anxious. Zhang Jin defended himself, and felt that he was simply looking for trouble and was unfounded.
Zhang Jin pondered to find some fun and relieve fatigue for himself, so as not to think wildly...
