Chapter 38 Zhao Wan
Chapter 38 Zhao Wan
Grandmother He had been in contact with her for half her life and knew her preferences.
It was difficult to say anything in front of the younger generation, so I just followed her force and walked forward.
Grandma He Qi naturally had to go with them, and as if to show something, she deliberately asked Zhao Wan to come over and support her as she walked.
But she didn't let Zhao Wan walk side by side with her. She just let her lag behind one step and keep her head down, just like a real maid.
Su Yan felt a little uncomfortable and thought that she might have caused trouble for Aunt Jiu.
When Grandmother He saw this, she stopped smiling and the corners of her mouth drooped.
I wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, it was someone else's family affair, so I didn't want to say too much.
Grandma He San didn't notice it. She talked excitedly along the way about how well-behaved and considerate her great-grandson was.
Su Yan was curious. How could a child who was only three days old be well-behaved and considerate?
But when I actually met her in person, I realized that Grandma He San was not exaggerating.
The little baby was white and chubby. He squinted his eyes and looked around, chewing his hands from time to time. He didn't cry or make a fuss and was very well-behaved.
This person is today’s protagonist, the eldest son of Uncle He’s eldest son.
The couple had been praying for a child for many years, and this time they finally got what they wanted. Not only did they feel relieved, but Uncle He Qi and Grandma He San also felt relieved.
All the sons from the second branch have run away, and there is no sign of them from the first branch yet.
How can this not cause worry to the elders?
Therefore, this was the birth of the eldest son and grandson, and the eldest wife's wish was fulfilled, so the third-day bathing ceremony was held in a grand manner.
However, the solemnity of the outside world is only for the outside world and has nothing to do with the little baby lying on the bed now.
Su Yan saw that he was so small with pouting lips, he was so adorable.
She wanted to reach out and touch it, but was afraid that her hand would be too heavy.
For a moment, I didn't even dare to move my hands.
At this time, a voice came from the side, "Go ahead and touch him, it's okay, Jun Ge is very well behaved and not shy at all."
The others also stopped talking and looked over here.
Su Yan looked up at Mrs. He lying on the bed and felt a little embarrassed.
Grandma He San also testified, "Yes, I have never seen such a well-behaved child. He doesn't cry at all except when he is hungry or wet. "
Grandmother He: "This is a caring thing. Yanyan, be careful when you touch it, and share in the good fortune."
The others looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
Thinking of something, Su Yan became even more shy, and a blush appeared on her face.
She didn't waste any time in moving her hands. She carefully reached out to Jun'er's little hand and touched it lightly. It was so small.
Suddenly, Jun Ge opened his little hands and fiercely grabbed Su Yan's fingers. His strength was not strong, but Su Yan was still stiff and did not dare to pull his hands away.
This is too small, the five little fingers look like figures.
Su Yan didn't know what to do, so she turned around and looked at Mrs. He for help.
Mrs. He covered her mouth and held back her laughter, but the people around her did not have the same concerns as her.
Everyone clapped their hands and laughed, and Su Yan suspected that the sound could be heard in the outer courtyard.
Among them, Grandma He San laughed the most exaggeratedly. She clapped her legs while laughing. Her unrestrained appearance made Su Yan even more shocked.
In the end, it was Mrs. He who came to the rescue of Su Yan and asked the wet nurse to come up and take Jun Ge'er away.
Jun Ge'er didn't cry when he was taken away, and he was taken away obediently.
Very well behaved indeed.
Su Yan let out a long sigh and touched his fingers carefully.
There was another burst of laughter all around.
Although Su Yan felt that there was nothing shameful about this, it was normal to have never seen such a young child.
But even until the meal, I was still a little afraid to speak.
The seats had been reserved by the He family long ago, and Su Yan was led to a position neither too front nor too back. Coincidentally, Grandma He Qi's daughter-in-law was also there.
The two had just met and were now seated at the same table, surrounded by strangers.
We started chatting naturally.
During the conversation, Su Yan discovered that his previous impression of Aunt Jiu was somewhat wrong.
Although she was indeed brought up as a lady from an ancient family, this can be seen from her every frown and smile.
However, she did not follow the rules like a real lady, and her behavior was flexible, generous and calm.
There were some modern ideas about gender equality in her words. Su Yan guessed that this might be related to her family.
Her parents must have loved her very much, so they hired famous teachers to teach her, but they also valued her very much, so her behavior was calm and confident.
The more they got along, the more Su Yan felt that this Aunt Jiu was to her liking, and so she became more and more excited as she talked.
Zhao Wan was even more so. She hadn't had such a happy chat for a long time. It was as if she had met a true confidant.
After a meal, they came out holding hands.
Even Su Yan, who was fast, felt it was a bit strange, after all, she was a slow person.
But just like when love comes, nothing can stop it, friendship can also make people lose control sometimes.
When you meet like-minded people with similar personalities, you will only feel that you have met them too late.
Therefore, after returning from the baptism ceremony, Su Yan went to see Grandmother He to ask about Zhao Wan's situation.
It's not that I want to investigate her or anything, I just want to find out more.
Grandmother He was very surprised. She didn't expect that Su Yan and Zhao Wan could get along so well.
But he didn't take it too seriously. Zhao Wan wasn't someone who couldn't face others. On the contrary, she actually had a very good reputation.
However, her experience is indeed a bit complicated, and she is quite famous in the county.
Zhao Wan's ancestors were poor, and her family, like most people, relied on farming to make a living.
By the time of Zhao Wan's father's generation, the family had enough land and land, so there was no problem for the family to have enough food and clothing.
However, Zhao Wan's father was a flexible man. He did not want to work on the land all his life, so he took his wife and parents and went around doing business.
The couple was lucky. After saving some money over the years, they used their connections to open a cloth shop and settled down in the county.
Later, the couple managed the business well and it gradually grew bigger. They also slowly involved in some other industries, but the cloth shop was still the main focus.
At this point, the couple can be said to have made a comeback. They should have nothing to regret and can now retire.
What they regret most is that they have no children.
When I was young, I worked hard but didn't have children. When I got older, I wanted to have children but couldn't.
Zhao's mother tried countless folk remedies for this purpose, and the threshold of the temple was even lowered by his family.
In the end, there was no other choice, so Zhao's father believed the folk saying and brought a boy back to act as an inducement.
I don't want to do anything against the law, I just want to take him home and raise him as a child.
This child will become the catalyst to bring offspring to the family.
I don’t know if it was really the effect of the child or if Zhao’s mother’s prayers to God worked.
Half a year after the child was brought back, Zhao's mother became pregnant as she wished.
