Chapter 3
The old man asked the children and servants to leave first. His wife and three sons were the only ones in the hall.

The old man picked up the tea cup and drank the tea, then put it on the table and said: "Second brother, since the imperial concubine has sent someone to deliver the gift, it means that the palace has noticed that I, Guarjia, have twins. It’s a happy event. The children are so delicate that you should take more careful care of them. When the children are older, most of the imperial concubines will let you and your wife take the children to the palace to meet the saints.”

"It's Ama. My son knows. Wanyuan and Jing Xiang are twins. My son and Qing Ning will take good care of them." Zhui Hong said sitting on a chair nearby.

The old man nodded and then said: "Second brother, your official position is now the third rank. If you want to be promoted to the second rank, you have to work hard for a few more years. What are your plans next?"

"My son plans to wait until Wan Yuan and Jing Xiang are over one year old and their bodies are stronger. Then he will ask his superiors to be released. My son wants to go out for a period of experience to improve his political achievements. When his son returns to the second-rank position, his son's potential will be better." You must win it." Zhui Hong's eyes were full of determination as he looked at Amma sitting above him and said.

"Okay, you are a descendant of my Guarjia family. If you have the determination, then go ahead and do it. Don't be afraid if anything happens. The entire Gualjia family is behind you."

"Yes, Amma."

"Okay, sir, there's no hurry, Zhui Hong. Let's talk about Wan Yuan and Jing Xiang's capture of Zhou first." The old lady interrupted the conversation between the father and son.

After the old lady's reminder, everyone remembered the important matter of catching Zhou Zhou, and then they started to discuss it.Not only the Guarjia family paid great attention to the matter of capturing the twins, but the Tongjia family also paid a lot of attention. After all, the two children had half of the Tongjia family's blood.Moreover, both families are aristocratic families in the capital, so even a small matter will be a big deal to the outside world.

Time passed quickly, and when the day came for the baby to be born, everything had been arranged at Gualjia's house early and could be carried out as soon as the time came.Relatives from the Guarjia family arrived one after another, including people from the Tong Jia family and other aristocratic families in the Eight Banners. Even the married aunt, Prince Rui of the royal clan, Xiang Fujin, the old lady's only daughter, arrived early.Since Guarjia married Prince Rui as a concubine, she has been loved by Prince Rui for many years. She even gave birth to two sons. The eldest son was also designated as the future heir by the prince early. Therefore, this In the prince's palace for many years, the status of the Guarjia family has far surpassed that of his direct descendant Fujin.

After Wanyuan and Jingxiang changed into their auspicious clothes, Tong Jia took the children and went to the old lady's room to say hello. It happened that the children's aunt was also beside the old lady. As soon as the aunt saw the children, she always had a smile on her face, " Second sister-in-law, these are twins, look, these two children look so much like you and second brother, they are indeed the children of our Guarjia family." After saying that, he stood up and approached the two children, "Second sister-in-law, give me a hug. Hug our Guarjia family’s direct descendant, Gege, this is the first time I’ve seen such a cute girl.”

Tong Jiashi carefully entrusted the child to her sister-in-law and said with a smile: "The girl is my younger sister, her name is Wanyuan. She has been very well-behaved since she was born. Except for screaming twice when she is hungry and when she urinates, she never screams at other times." I’ve seen her cry, but it’s her brother who likes to make trouble with her mother.”

"I just like such a sensible and cute daughter, but after I gave birth to two sons, both of them were sons. I wanted to have a daughter, but God didn't give me this fate." Wanyuan's aunt is a typical Manchu woman, with the Guarjia clan Her genes are excellent, so her aunt Guarjia is also a woman with outstanding appearance. In addition, after she got married, she was pampered by a prince and gave birth to children, so she had no worries for the rest of her life. Therefore, her appearance looks younger than her actual age. many.

The old lady took a sip of tea, put down the cup and said: "You and the prince are still young. Now that you have two sons, and you are favored, if you still want to have a daughter, go and discuss it with the prince. More children will bring you blessings." "I know, my daughter, but the twins born by the second sister-in-law are very cute to look at." After saying that, he handed Wan Yuan to her mother, and then went to hug Jing Xiang to see how the boy looked.

After a while, when the time came, Tong Jia took her children and followed the old lady to the front hall.As soon as Wanyuan and Jing Xiang appeared, the guests all focused on the twins. For them, twins were too rare. Now that they had the opportunity to watch the children up close, they naturally wouldn't Don't miss this opportunity.

As the child's father, Zhuo Hong came to his wife Tong Jia's side, took Wanyuan in his hand, and together with his wife put the child on the blanket that was used to hold Zhou Zhou.There are many things inside the blanket: seals, scriptures, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, swords, jewelry, flowers, abacus, money, rouge, fans, toys, dough figures, etc.Among them, the most attractive piece of white jade to Wanyuan is a piece of high-quality white jade. Since Wan Yuan's powers are wood and water, the inside of this piece of white jade can react with Wan Yuan's water type. Wanyuan doesn't know that this piece of white jade is as big as a palm. Why did it have such an effect? ​​Therefore, Wan Yuan believed in her consciousness, crawled to Bai Yu and held on to it. Then she took the abacus and the round fan, and grabbed Zhou's things. Wan Yuan took these three items.

As for the elder brother Jing Xiang, who is one of the twins, after getting the bow and arrow, he saw the jade in his sister's hand, so he took the other jade objects and put them next to his sister.

Seeing their performance, the people around them all smiled and congratulated Guarjia Zuhong and Tong Jiashi, congratulating them on adding a Batulu to the Qing Dynasty, and praising little Gege for being beautiful and virtuous when she grew up.Zhuo Hong and Tong Jia's Qing Ning happily thanked everyone.

Soon the ceremony of catching Zhou was over. Tong Jia took the child back to her room. The old lady Tong Jia, who was the child's maternal grandfather, and her eldest daughter-in-law also came to the room.

The old lady Tong Jia was Wan Yuan's biological grandmother. She loved the twins just as much as the child's biological mother, Tong Jia Qing Ning. They said they were close relatives in the next generation. When the old lady came to her daughter's room, she took turns hugging her. Holding onto Wanyuan and Jing Xiang, they were not willing to let go for a moment.

The old lady looked at her grandson in her arms with satisfaction and love in her eyes. Then she asked about her little daughter's recent situation, and casually told her that the imperial concubine had asked her to give birth to twins for her little daughter, and that her granddaughter would be born today. Zhuo Zhou was holding a white jade, which was a special congratulatory gift from the imperial concubine.

Qing Ning, her mother and sister-in-law Fucha chatted happily, starting from talking about the children and later talking about the court and the imperial concubine.

Wanyuan stayed quietly in her grandmother's arms, playing with the white jade in her hands, and listening to their conversations from time to time.
