Good morning Mr. Zhongtang

Chapter 61

Tong Wanrou didn't know what Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wu talked about, but after meeting her mother-in-law, she felt some headaches, so she lay down to rest.

Hearing that she was not feeling well, Mrs. Li hurriedly asked the doctor in the mansion to come and feel her pulse, saying that she had a headache caused by impatience. Mrs. Li stayed by her side for a long time and said many words of comfort to her, before Tong Wanrou fell into a deep sleep with gratitude go.

Two or three days before the ten days agreed with Fu Heng, Fu Heng came back from Shanxi.It gave Tong Wanrou a big surprise.

Mrs. Li also felt that the current situation in the mansion was not suitable for Tong Wanrou to raise children. On the day Fu Heng came back, he didn't keep them much, so he arranged everything for them and let them go on the road.

Sitting in the carriage, Tong Wanrou looked at her husband's running around in the past few days, seeing that she had lost a lot of weight, and caressed his cheek with some distress. Fu Heng was indeed a little tired because of his busy schedule and several times of rushing. , lying on Tong Wanrou's soft bed, the two embraced each other and fell asleep.

The longer the couple has been together, the more Tong Wanrou feels that there is no need to speak between the two, they can have a lot of tacit understanding, understand each other's thoughts, and then give silent support and understanding.

In order to take care of Tong Wanrou, the carriage did not travel as fast as riding a horse, and it took a full three or four days to arrive at the governor's mansion just like when they came back.

After returning, Fu Heng returned to the Yamen without stopping.

Tong Wanrou heard from him on the road that he already knew about the things here in Shanxi, and from the end of this year or the beginning of next year, he will be able to walk in the military plane, and maybe have a chance to enter the cabinet.

Tong Wanrou didn't understand the affairs of the officialdom, so she could only support him silently and try her best to take care of herself so as not to burden him with unnecessary worries.

Fast forward to mid-June.

The weather in June was already extremely hot. After Tong Wanrou got up in the morning and ate some fruit, she felt her stomach was swollen. Xiaocui and Xiaodie helped her to walk around the yard. There was a slight pain.

Tong Wanrou counted the days, and it was probably coming soon. After returning to the room, she asked Xiaocui to call the two Granny Wen to come over for a checkup. When she saw that she was about to give birth, the whole house became busy.

Tong Wanrou only felt that her stomach didn't hurt that much, so why was she about to give birth?
She was carried to the delivery room by Granny Wen. On the way, Tong Wanrou was still asking:

"Didn't you say that giving birth is painful? Why do I feel a little pain?"

One of the Granny Wen smiled helplessly at Tong Wanrou and said, "My dear wife, are you in pain yet? You have to hold on for a while."

Tong Wanrou thought to herself, if it was only this degree of pain, she thought she would still be able to live on, Dang even nodded her head to reassure her: "Don't worry. Even if it hurts a little more, I'll be fine."

"..."

However, after more than an hour after saying this, Tong Wanrou began to regret it!

A horrific scream was heard in the mansion, and Fu Heng rushed back anxiously when he heard Tong Wanrou's horrific cry, he immediately panicked and wanted to rush into the delivery room to see what was going on.

Stopped by the housekeeper: "Master, Madam is giving birth, you can't go in."

Fu Heng was a little out of place: "If she is called like this, no one will take care of her inside?"

The butler was reprimanded by Fu Heng face to face for the first time, and he didn't react. After a while, he pulled Fu Heng and said:
"My lord, this is how women give birth. The two old ladies you invited are very safe. They are inside, and Madam will be fine! Just wait outside."

"..."

Fu Heng's hands were folded together, and his tense posture was clearly visible. He kept tapping the back of the other hand with his fingertips, pacing by the door as if he was suffering more than the people inside.

About half an hour later, the screams in the room suddenly increased several heights. Fu Heng couldn't stand anymore, and walked up the stone steps with his clothes in his hands. Just as he was about to break in, he heard a voice from inside. There was a loud baby cry.

This cry made his heart, which had been dry for a long time, tremble, and it injected into his heart like a stream of sweet springs, and an emotion called moving surged up his nose and eye sockets.

The hand that was about to push the door was put down, and Fu Heng just lay on the edge of the door, as if he wanted to listen more carefully to the voice inside.

In fact, he also understands that the mother is not allowed to open the door when she is giving birth. Leaving aside the saying that the blood is inauspicious, the wind from opening and closing the door may make the mother catch a cold. Shout, he won't be so impulsive anymore.

After a while, there was a gap in the delivery room, and a small head was sent to the door. It was red and wrinkled and ugly, but Fu Heng liked it very much. Down.

Granny Wen held the child and said to Fu Heng through the crack of the door:

"Congratulations, my lord, mother and child are safe, my wife gave birth to a young master!"

Now Fu Heng no longer cares whether Tong Wanrou gave birth to a young lady or a young master, he only needs to hear that the mother and child are safe.

As soon as the mother-in-law's words came out, all the servants of the governor's mansion also saluted Fu Heng and made congratulations: "Congratulations, my lord, congratulations, madam."

He told Mrs. Wen again: "Be good and take care of Madam."

"Yes." Wen Po answered and closed the door again.

Fu Heng's heart sank in mid-air, and only then did he remember to ask the butler to prepare the red envelopes.

Fu Heng could only step in after the delivery room was tidied up.

After entering the door, she saw Tong Wanrou lying weakly on the bed, with one hand under her head, leaning sideways, staring at the small ball lying beside her.

Fu Heng walked over, first leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, and said to her, "Thank you for your hard work."

Tong Wanrou smiled softly, then turned her eyes on the child again, as if she couldn't get enough of it, Fu Heng said:

"I'll give him a hug."

Tong Wanrou nodded, and Fu Heng straddled his body, as if he was holding a treasure, and stiffened his body. The clumsy appearance made Tong Wanrou want to laugh, but when he smiled, he moved his lower body and groaned uncomfortably. , Yin.

Fu Heng hurriedly put the child back on the bed, and asked her, "What's the matter? Is it still hurting?"

Tong Wanrou shook her head: "It doesn't hurt much anymore. I just feel tired."

Fu Heng stroked her cheek and said with a smile, "Go to sleep when you're tired."

Tong Wanrou shook her head again: "Wen Po said to hold on as much as possible and breastfeed later."

"Go to sleep if you can't hold on any longer. I'll go find a nanny now, so I won't be afraid to starve him."

Surrounded by Fu Heng's gentleness, Tong Wanrou felt that her whole body was immersed in the ocean of happiness, and she had long forgotten the pain before.

When the two were looking at each other, Wen Po came in and told Fu Heng to go aside and wait for a while, they were going to milk Tong Wanrou.

After tossing and tossing for another half an hour, the little baby finally ate it.

When breastfeeding, the baby's face turned redder, as if she had used a lot of strength, because Tong Wanrou had just given birth, so the amount of milk was not enough, and the baby could barely fill her stomach after eating two sides.

After finally waiting for him to finish eating, Tong Wanrou was too tired. After the mother-in-law wrapped the child in a thin cloth, she still placed it beside Tong Wanrou, letting them fall asleep together.

On the tenth day after the child was born, Mrs. Li sent a lot of things, including the child's clothes and shoes, and all the things the adults would use during the confinement.

Tong Wanrou can only stay in her room every day. The temperature in June is already very hot, but she can't go out. Fu Heng can only ask someone to put ice cubes around her room every day. Curtains were hung in front of the windows, so that the windows could be opened for ventilation, and Tong Wanrou would not be locked in a closed and stuffy room.

Thanks to Fu Heng's considerate measures, even though she was confinement in the sweltering heat, Tong Wanrou didn't feel too hard. Instead, she was resting well, her face became more rosy, and she was healthy. The baby's milk source is sufficient, but after more than ten days, the baby's face is not as red as when it was born, but gradually turned into a pink jade bracelet, which is extremely cute.

Fu Heng named him Fu Ling'an, just like Tong Wanrou, he didn't want the child to be successful, but he only hoped that he would grow up safely.

Although Fu Heng arranged all the affairs in the mansion properly, he himself didn't have much time to come back to accompany Tong Wanrou, because there were a lot of affairs in the yamen, and he had to deal with them at the same time, and he also had to deal with the assessment in Beijing. A lot of the information that has been sorted out has been listed as a reference by the Military Aircraft Department, and there are many additional things in the Military Aircraft Department that require his assistance.

Tong Wanrou was accompanied by her child, so she didn't feel too lonely, but sometimes it was very late, and she and the child had fallen asleep, only to see Fu Heng come back from the outside in a daze, and then the next day when they were still awake, He went out again.

After more than a month, Tong Wanrou was officially allowed to go out for a walk. On the same day, she asked someone to draw the curtain in the garden, and she sat in the yard and played with Ling'an in her arms. Although Ling'an was still very young, she didn't understand anything. , but Tong Wanrou still talked to him happily. Ling'an's small body just obediently fell on Tong Wanrou's shoulders, and her chubby face was very cute.

Mrs. Li wrote, saying that she wanted to come to Shanxi at the end of the year to celebrate the New Year with them.

But Fu Heng wrote her back a letter, saying that they will return to the capital this year, so she doesn't have to come again.

As a matter of fact, it is true. Fu Heng's proposal aroused repercussions in the military aircraft department. The cabinet admired his military insights and talents very much. walk everywhere.

This result was beyond Tong Wanrou's expectation.

Although Xianggong told her that he would not stay in Shanxi for too long, she never expected that in just over a year, Xianggong would be promoted from the governor to the cabinet. This speed of promotion is simply too shocking. Surprised.

After expressing her thoughts to Fu Heng, Fu Heng said indifferently: "I just seized the opportunity of the transition between Manchu and Han and did these things."

Although what he said is very ordinary, only Tong Wanrou knows that in order to do those things, he writes at his desk all day long, and only gets up when the oil lamp is off. In order to deal with official documents, he often forgets to eat and sleep. Silk.

His efforts are always invisible to others, so when his achievements are revealed, others will only say that he is lucky or extremely talented, and no one will explore at all. what an effort.

In the 11th year of Qianlong, Fu Heng officially became a member of the Military Aircraft Department, entered the cabinet, and became a minister of state affairs.
