The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 126

The life of Zhang Tingyu's eldest son began with such a shameful name.

Of course, now that he is still young, he doesn't know what this nickname that will accompany him for most of his life means.Even if he knew, his black-hearted mother would not feel pity for him because of this.

That's right, it's the name, and I will never change it. Whoever changes it will turn my face against him!

The child is too ugly and too fat.

When Gu Huaixiu woke up faintly, it was dark, and the fourth watch gong had just been knocked outside, the doors and windows were closed, and there was no ventilation, so he was afraid that the confinement would blow.

It was very cold outside, with gusts of cold wind, and the maids dared not sleep, so they all stayed outside.

Sun Lianqiao endured it for a while, turned out her medical skills and looked under the lamp, but she also dozed off while watching.

The second master watched the nanny take care of the child and read a book outside.

At this moment, Gu Huaixiu fell asleep and woke up, feeling comfortable all over, his stomach disappeared, and his whole body relaxed.She hoarsely called: "Qingdai..."

All the maids came to watch, and Qing Dai even yelled "Second Young Mistress is awake".

Gu Huaixiu was supported to raise half of his body slightly, but he was still nestled under the quilt, his hair was untied and tied, and his whole body carried an indescribable elegance.She raised her eyes, and saw Zhang Tingyu coming over with the child in her arms, and frowned, "I'll take a look at him."

After giving birth, I took a look at the baby and passed out. I just remembered that the kid was too fat.

Zhang Tingyu frowned slightly, and handed the child into her arms. Seeing that her movements were also jerky, he opened his brows again: "Do you really want to change your nickname?"

Gu Huaishu didn't answer him, but just looked at the face of the little baby, who was falling asleep at the moment.

The small mouth looked pink and tender, but the face was covered in swaddling clothes because of the baby's fat. Gu Huaishou poked the child's face when he stretched out his finger. The poke missed the bone, and the hand felt full of flesh...

The feeling at this moment is really complicated and indescribable.

With trembling fingers, Gu Huaixiu raised his hand to caress his forehead: "Did such a fat thing really fall from me..."

Zhang Tingyu said: "Perhaps you ate too much during pregnancy..."

"you shut up!"

She squinted at him, with an indignant look: "It is said that children are born with pink and jade carvings. I can understand that this face is wrinkled, but why are you so fat?! Are you fat, am I fat? Do you look at him again?!"

The maids in the room were all silent.

Zhang Tingyu was also speechless. He used to wrap Xiaopang and Xiaopang's mother in his arms. He didn't know whether to comfort himself or others. He just said: "Now the child is still young and the baby is fat. I don't see anything. , I think this kid has eyebrows like mine, eyes like you, nose like me, and mouth like everyone else."

Gu Huaixiu hugged the child, feeling heavy and indescribably satisfied.

She doesn't seem to be holding a child in her arms, but like holding the whole world.

After a long time, she remembered to satirize Zhang Tingyu: "The child's face has not been opened yet, you can see the facial features. From ancient times to the present, it is nonsense to say that the eyes and nose look like so and so! You are also nonsense!"

Zhang Tingyu saw Xiaopang shrunk his neck in the swaddle, and thought it was disturbing him, so he hurriedly told Gu Huaishou to stop talking, but in a blink of an eye, the child began to cry "Wow wow", and the second room was full of people. Messed up.

Xiaopang couldn't open his eyes yet, and was sleeping soundly at the moment, and was woken up by being poked in the face, so wronged, he yelled and wanted to shut them up.

Gu Huaixiu didn't hit a single point: "Baby bear, I will deal with you when you grow up!"

When I said it was not enough, when I said it, I cried even harder.

Zhang Tingyu has one head and two big ones, and hurried to carry the children: "Okay, Second Young Mistress, you should rest, just give birth to the baby and take care of it, and leave it to me to hold the baby. What do you care about with him if there is an extra baby?" .”

It's not that she wants to care about the child, it's because this kid is too fat!

The child in her fantasy should at least be beautiful, with black eyes and white face. Boys look smart and resolute, girls look cute and cute, but in the end they give birth to a big fat boy, aren't you kidding me!
Can Gu Huaixiu bear it?
She can't stand it!

But Zhang Tingyu could bear it, holding a fat ball and treating it as a treasure.

Gu Huaixiu was so angry that he shrank back into the quilt, let Qingdai help him, stared at Zhang Tingyu, looked at the "giant baby", and then looked at the way Zhang Tingyu had quickly become proficient in holding the child. But somehow shed tears.

Just as Sun Lianqiao got up from the desk, she came in and saw it, and said, "Sit happily and don't shed tears. This time, you must take good care of your body so that the wind won't blow, and don't go outside the house." ..."

"Thank you sister-in-law for your troubles. I have been bothering you everywhere these past few months. Now..."

At this moment, Sun Lianqiao was still there, which really surprised Gu Huaishu.

Originally, she just watched Zhang Tingyu holding the child, but she never thought that seeing this scene turned out to be such a mixed feeling, if her first child could survive...

Gu Huaishu lowered his eyes and said, "I'm just happy."

Sun Lianqiao felt her pulse, and said: "Everything is fine, with the prescription I prescribed, this month, take more tonics, and eat something good. You just woke up, and the kitchen is not good." Prepare something?"

Qing Dai immediately said: "The kitchen is already prepared, and Master Shi Fang is not resting yet, Second Young Madam, let Shi Fang cook what you want to eat."

Sun Lianqiao hurriedly stopped her and said: "You have to avoid eating, you can eat whatever you make. There is a prescription next to the medical book on my desk, take it and let the cook follow suit. I will write some prescriptions one after another this month. , I just hope that the Second Young Mistress's body can be recuperated, so that there will be no future troubles."

So, Qing Dai took the prescription and went to the kitchen to collect it.

Shi Fang was still awake by the stove, but the two servants who helped him were about to fall asleep bit by bit.

He opened his eyes and looked at the sky that was about to dawn outside, thinking that the Second Young Mistress might wake up at dawn, so he decided to make some porridge.

Unexpectedly, there were hurried footsteps ahead, Qing Dai went up the steps and knocked lightly on the door, it was so cold outside that she shrank her arms and legs.

"Master Shifang?"

"Miss Qingdai?"

Shi Fang stood up and went to open the door.A prescription was handed over from outside the door, Qing Dai said: "The young lady of the Gu family told me to follow this prescription, saying it was for the second young lady to take care of her body."

After sweeping the recipe, Shi Fang said: "This will take some time, I'm afraid Second Young Mistress will have to eat something else first."

Qing Dai said: "Second young mistress just woke up, she was still talking to the second master in the room, she didn't feel hungry, it must be the half bowl of ginseng soup she drank during delivery? Come on, take it easy, I have to go back to serve you .”

"Sure, Miss Qingdai, go, I'm busy now."

Shi Fang squeezed the formula, smiled behind Liang's back in the room, and looked very happy.

Qing Dai just smiled and walked two steps, but when she looked back, she remembered something, ran back quickly, took out a handful of silver keys from her sleeve, and handed it to him: "Today is a happy event in the mansion, everyone is waiting for you."

This time, Qing Dai turns around and leaves.

Back in the kitchen, Shi Fang divided most of the handful of silver ladles among the two boys who were still dozing off, and said: "Second Young Mistress gave it to me."

The two young servants were hit by this good thing that fell from the sky. Seeing that the weight of the silver key was not clear at all, they nodded and bowed quickly.

Shi Fang walked up to the burning stove, took down a warm stone pot, and poured out the soup that had been simmering for a long time.

The servant in the back immediately got anxious: "Hey, Master Shi Fang, what are you doing with this thing that has been stewed for most of the night?"

Shi Fang said: "Make new ones."

Just follow the recipe above.

He started to gather again, but the boy behind him felt it was a pity.These two people got the reward, they all came up to help Shi Fang, and they got busy in the kitchen.

When it was about dawn, the soup was already stewed, and the maids brought it in, and Gu Huaishu had already taken a nap.

She sipped the soup and only asked, "Did Xiaoshi fall asleep?"

"When the servants went to serve the soup, they saw that they were still tidying up, and they were not asleep." The maids said.

Gu Huaishu said: "Let him go to bed earlier, and the cook will cook the food in the house tomorrow morning. Second Master is not picky, I will get up to eat again at noon."

"Yes, this servant will go and talk."

The little maid hurried to run errands.

Zhang Tingyu sat beside her couch and said, "You still favor him so much, what do you mean you don't pick your mouth?"

The soup was prescribed by Sun Lianqiao, and it didn't taste like ordinary soup, but Gu Huaishu also knew that his body was the most important thing, so he drank it with a suffocated breath, and after drinking it he was relieved, but laughed at Zhang Tingyu: "Say If you don't pick your mouth, isn't it a compliment?"

It's better not to have such a compliment.

Thinking about Gu Huaixiu's mouth, Zhang Tingyu was really furious.

He sighed, seeing that it was still early, he just said: "Go to sleep for a while, I will show the baby to the nanny later, and go back to catch up on sleep."

Seeing that the second master's eye sockets are blue, he knows that he is also extremely tired.

She nodded, returned to the quilt, closed her eyes and fell asleep easily.

Zhang Tingyu carefully handed the little fat man to the nanny, then lightly touched Gu Huaixiu's smooth and full forehead, got up and went.

There were not bright lights on in the room, it was dim and warm yellow.

Zhang Tingyu only thinks that this time is good, everything is quiet, and his heart is also peaceful.

Gu Huaishu had been in confinement for quite a while, and the gifts from the Zhang residence really came in like water.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for Gu Huaisui to conceive, and she felt that her whole body was brittle. She got up and stretched indecently, and then she heard that annoying little fat man crying.

The nanny coaxed the little fat man, and Gu Huaixiu's head grew dizzy when he heard it: "Hold the child here and let me have a look."

As a result, the nanny had just brought the baby in, so Gu Huai's hands sank, and she almost lost her hug: "You must be coaxing me, saying that the baby was born at a weight of seven pounds and six taels, why do I think he is the least It has to be ten catties?"

The nanny sneered: "I have never seen ten catties in my mother's womb. This..."

This is of course a joke.

The charcoal fire in the room was warm, Gu Huaishou was wearing a thin jacket with silver flowers on a white background, with water red trim, it looked bright and bright, no makeup was applied on his face, but his skin was jade-like.

As soon as the person came out of the confinement period, his whole complexion straightened up. It used to look like there was always a faint sickness, but now it has disappeared.

As soon as she hugged the baby, he stopped crying.

The little fat man's eyeballs have been opened, they are black and big, even if they are squeezed by the fat on his cheeks, if the place is too small, the eyes are too big and it is troublesome.

Gu Huaishu couldn't help complaining: "I just said why I was hungry so fast when I was pregnant, most of it was eaten by this kid! The five sense organs are all good when taken apart, and when they are put together Why am I so worried?"

This time, the nanny didn't dare to answer.

Although the chubby young master is a bit fatter, he is still cute to look at, especially his eyes are so beautiful and clever, he will laugh when people come, see what master, old lady, uncle, fourth master, young mistress, etc. Yes, I laughed so sweetly.

A one-month-old doll seems to be able to tell who is closest to him, saying that this child is very smart.

Someone said again that the child born from the combination of the Second Young Mistress and the Second Master, who have twists and turns in their stomachs and don't know how much thought they have, will definitely be a little ancestor.

What the little fat man will be like in the future will only be known later.

Right now, Gu Huaishu is only worried about one problem.

How to lose weight for children?

Now he drinks milk when he is hungry, and cries when he is not fed, and he cannot be persuaded by crying at the top of his throat.

Sun Lianqiao also said that the child is growing now, so I advise her not to think about trying to lose weight for the child, unless the child is not her own.

Thinking of Sun Lianqiao's disgusted and twitching expression, Gu Huaishu was also depressed.

I heard that other people's children look fat when they are just born, and become thinner when they grow up. Girls change eighteen times, and boys change eighteen times. The more they become cuter, that's the reason!
Gu Huaishu, who comforted himself psychologically, sat at the kang table and teased the child.

"Can you call me mother? I am your mother, open your mouth... yes, open your mouth..."

"Yeah, woo, woo, woo..."

What a messy sound...

Gu Huaishu poked him in the face: "Why aren't you a genius? My genius baby can talk in two months, and you'll be a mischievous bastard if you die!"

"Why are you poking him again? Turn around and poke your face, let's see where you cry."

Zhang Tingyu had only just finished his work outside, so he hurried back home to hug his wife and son. Who would have thought that when he entered the door, he would see Gu Huaisui's pointy fingers sticking out to poke the child, and then pinch the little fat man's face. Speechless.

"Am I his mother or are you his mother? There are quite a few pieces of meat..."

No, it would be great if poking less meat...

A lot of cruel ways to lose weight for infants and young children had already appeared in Gu Huaishu's mind, but as Zhang Tingyu tapped her eyebrows and asked her to put down the claws holding the child, this series of magical methods followed like this Zhang Tingyu gave a finger like a flying fairy to...

Fly away.

Gu Huaixiu rolled his eyes towards the sky, and let Zhang Tingyu carry the child. Perhaps it was his son who was close to his father. The boy squinted his eyes slightly when he saw Zhang Tingyu. His little hands didn't have the strength yet, and he only knew that there was no meaning in mid-air grip.

The cheeks are bulging like buns, so ugly.

Gu Huaixiu almost fainted when he saw it, and Zhang Tingyu was still playing the piccolo by his mouth to cultivate his son's noble sentiments.

Let him tease the child over there, Gu Huaishu only opened a letter on the kang table, picked up a tube of small brushes, and wrote a few words on it.

"November 37, [-], Er Fat is as ugly as before, and his obesity has not diminished. His facial features are put together to make him even uglier. Thinking about his future appearance, there is no solution. Alas, his father loves him very much. [-]. I have learned the secret method of losing weight today. When my son grows up, he will look at his appearance. If he is fat, he will lose a penny of beauty. If he is very fat, he will be unbearably ugly. I have reached the limit of my patience. This son is very ugly, even ugly!"

After finishing writing, Gu Huaixiu went to flip through the front. The whole notebook started roughly on the third day after she gave birth to the little fat man. Ugly", "Er Fatty's father has no eyes", "Er Fatty's route is completely different from his mother's imagination", "Er Fatty needs to lose weight"...

A book written by Er Fatty, with crooked handwriting, doesn't look like it was written by a lady from a scholarly family.

Zhang Tingyu saw that Gu Huaishu was writing again, his face was half darkened, and he said speechlessly: "If the little fat man turns back your words, he will definitely be ridiculed by his son for the rest of his life!"

"Bah!" Gu Huaishu snorted coldly, "I don't think he's ugly yet."

His mother is a great beauty, although his father doesn't say that he is handsome all over the capital, he is also of Yushu Lin's style, so why shouldn't he give birth to such an ugly son?
"Could it be that the legendary thing goes against its limits?"

Gu Huaixiu muttered a few words, and finally threw his letter to Zhang Tingyu, grabbed the child into his arms, and said: "Go and copy my letter again, and change it to a nice font. I will hold the child first." ..."

The little fat man yelled "Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" and squinted at Zhang Tingyu in his mother's arms.

Resigned to his fate, he took another spare notebook from the side of the kang table, and used his beautiful lowercase letters to copy the things written by Gu Huaixiu, "I've never seen a mother like you, looking back and waiting for the daytime wine." , let me see how you face so many guests!"

There are still more than 50 days before the day, so Gu Huaixiu is not in a hurry, it will be after the Chinese New Year anyway.

Presumably her son won't grow sideways...

Hey, no, it’s not right to say this, good spirits are not spirits and bad spirits.

Zhang Tingyu copied his notes, and at the end of the day, he changed the style of the pavilion and said, "It's time to practice calligraphy."

Gu Huaishu said angrily: "The child is born, and you are just a juren."

"Juren is already very good, okay?" Zhang Tingyu was helpless.

In ordinary people, a scholar can be superior.Tongsheng did not sit with Shang, and no one dared to beat a scholar when he entered the county government.When he got to the point where he raised people, no one dared to punish him even if Da Lala pointed his nose at the magistrate in the Jiangning government office.If you want to beat him up, you have to report to every level, and only the teacher can beat the palm of your hand, let alone any blame.

It's just that in the Zhang family, a small Juren is really nothing.

Zhang Tingyu could only hold back his breath, and increased the strength of his handwriting. When he wrote the word "ugly", there was a smell of silver hooks drawn on iron, and he said: "Although I haven't participated in the test yet, I will My son is already number one in the second class..."

No. [-] in the second class?

Gu Huaishu froze for a moment, then looked at Zhang Tingyu.

But Zhang Tingyu realized that he had slipped his mouth, so he just smiled and said, "No. [-] in the second class is not bad, don't dislike it. The top three in the first class are too eye-catching, which is not good for our family."

"..."

Gu Huaishu lowered his head, and said: "You've finally made it through, it's fine if you don't suppress you."

So what if you won the last few places?

Now the life of the two is safe and secure, and the new road is already under their feet.

In a blink of an eye, it was the hundredth day of the child, and Zhang Tingyu sent invitations widely, inviting everyone he knew to come.

After all, it was his first son. The people in the house refused to change the child's nickname because of Gu Huaishou's life and death. He only called him "Fat Brother". It should have been extremely festive to do something like a hundred days, but they were so young. The young master is called "Fat Brother", isn't that funny?
If you want to tell others, our young master is called Fat Brother, you must think we are teasing you, right?

But our young master is really called Fat Brother.

Yes, you heard that right, Fat Brother!

God knows what mood Zhang Tingyu was in when he wrote the invitation...

Anyway...hehe, Second Young Mistress is quite happy.

This aunt spends all day thinking about how to lose weight when the child grows up. The poor fat boy has been rich since he was a child. When he grows up, recalling the hard times when he was a child, she really has a snot and a tear, lamenting that she can live It's all thanks to my loving father!

On the first day of the week, there were a lot of guests, and Gu Huaixiu also put on light makeup, looking alluring.

Now she is very powerful, she has a child, her husband does not take concubines, and she is the first in the Jiangning Township Examination. Needless to say, she looks like this, and Zhang's family has to listen to her instructions for everything...

Up and down, there is nothing worse than others.

The wives who came to see her were either worse than her, or not as good as her, women and women had to care about it.

Perhaps, their only consolation is that the fat guy is uglier.

But how many months is this child?
Even if they comforted themselves with the fat man's ugliness, when they looked at the fat man's dark eyes, everyone felt guilty and dared not say anything.

The gate of Zhang's mansion was full of cars and cars, so it was very lively.

one?The sedan chair with a navy blue velvet cloth stopped not far away, Zhong Heng shrunk his hands, it was not long after the new year, and the weather was still cold: "Are you going in?"

The gift has been delivered first, but why stop on the way?
Shen Qi sat inside picking out a fan, and only smashed a handful of fans, stepped on the bottom of his feet, and said: "The fat guy is a strong boy, so don't go in and see, Jiangnan is in a hurry, go to Tongzhou Wharf .”

Zhong Heng sighed silently, but still followed.

Inside the mansion, Gu Huai was in a beautiful manner, treated people, greeted them and sent them off.

It was not until Zhang Ying and Zhang Tingzan came back from court that the centenary banquet officially began.

Zhang Ying served as the chief examiner of the examination, and he was a great Confucianist in the dynasty. How good the Zhang family will be in the future. When children from other families go to school, they will specially invite their husbands to enlighten them. When they arrive at the Zhang family, how many Jinshi will a father and son have?

When the fat guy needs to be enlightened, Zhang Tingyu should also be a Jinshi...

People have said that at that time, I am afraid that I will have to invite a champion to enlighten the fat guy.

The child still has lanugo on his head, and he walked over without any danger in the first hundred days.

Fat guy is much smoother...

Zhang Ying didn't even change out of the court clothes, so she came in directly. There were candy and peanuts on the table, but the guests were all around the children.

When Gu Huaishu saw Zhang Ying coming in, he saluted with everyone.

Zhang Ying quickly waved his hands, while Gu Huaixiu hugged the fat boy to Zhang Ying. Zhang Ying touched the fat boy's forehead with his rough and old palm, and watched the child smile at him, revealing that he was still The toothless two rows of gums also laughed happily: "Good boy, you really don't have stage fright!"

The guests also laughed, and then saw Zhang Ying hug Fat Brother over and sit down.

The lanugo has not been shaved, and the barber has come to shave off the child's hair, leaving only a pinch on the back of the head.

The barber said that the fat guy is good-looking and rich, and he will be a lucky man in the future.

Gu Huaishu smiled awkwardly.

The child shaved his head and left a bunch of centenarian hair, which meant a long life.

After seeing it, the chubby doll was just like the one in the New Year picture. Everyone laughed and said congratulations repeatedly.

How did the fat guy know that? He was startled and cried by everyone's voices.

The world in the eyes of children is so bizarre that they don't understand what the adults are shouting at all.

Zhang Ying was already very excited: "This child's hands were heavy when he was born, and now he has some weight in his arms, and he will definitely live a long life."

Zhang Tingyu naturally agreed, "It's my son, he should be strong."

Gu Huaishu's eyelids twitched, and he was speechless again.

Everyone looked at Fat Guy dressed thickly, wrapped in little red clothes like a ball, crying with anger, his mouth was wide open, and he started dropping golden beans when he raised his face, laughing so hard Even more powerful.

When Gu Huaishu heard what Zhang Tingyu said, he just stood beside him and pinched Zhang Tingyu's waist quietly: "As expected of your son, you are so ugly..."
