Chapter 246 Child Marriage? ?

Giving birth to a second child requires a lot of physical strength for a woman.

Zhang Guifen has practiced martial arts since she was a child and has a good foundation, but she is too young after all, she is only seventeen years old.

After giving birth to the second child, my physical strength was so exhausted that I didn't even have the time to glance at the child and fell asleep directly.

Wei Yuan personally served Zhang Guifen in the room, got a bowl of milk, and carefully put it into her mouth with a spoon.

Only some officials could afford to drink this milk. Ordinary people could drink it once in a while, which was enough.

Outside the house, at the pavilion of Chunyi Pavilion, the Zhang and Wei families were drinking and talking.

Wei Yuan was preoccupied with Zhang Guifen's health and lost the joy of giving birth. He only hoped that his wife would wake up soon, so he did not go outside to celebrate with everyone drinking.

Zhang Fu asked people to urge him several times, but he still refused to leave Zhang Guifen for a moment.

The two girls Tian Zhen and Bao Zhu were envious and said one after another:

"If Madam wakes up and knows how the Marquis treats her, she will definitely be very happy."

"Master Marquis, you should go and have something to eat. We are taking care of you here."

Wei Yuan heard it, but did not respond. He just held Zhang Guifen's hand and looked at her quietly.

Not long after, Mrs. Zhang walked in with very light steps. She came behind Wei Yuan, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Yuan'er, go have a drink with your master. Leave Fen'er to me."

Wei Yuan said: "Mom, I want to accompany Guifen."

Mrs. Zhang said: "I'm sorry to say that when a woman gives birth, she has one foot in the door of hell. Now Guifen has only lost some vitality and has had two children. She is already blessed with great fortune."

"The imperial doctors have said that you can recover as long as you rest for a while, so you don't have to worry."

Wei Yuan sighed: "How could Guifen be like this if it wasn't the second child?"

Mrs. Zhang knocked him on the head and said, "According to what you said, you don't want that son anymore?"

Wei Yuan said: "Guifen is still young, and it's not like she only gave birth to one child, but this time she gave birth to two children in succession, which greatly damaged her vitality."

Mrs. Zhang was a little dissatisfied and said: "I heard recently that you favor girls over boys. No matter what, they are my grandsons and granddaughters. You must treat them equally."

"If I know in the future that you dare to favor one person over another, I will take my grandson and granddaughter to the Duke's Mansion, and I, the grandmother, will raise them."

Wei Yuan hurriedly said: "With the words of my mother-in-law, my son-in-law will not dare to do anything that favors one over another!"

Mrs. Zhang nodded, "That's good."

A full night passed before Zhang Guifen woke up quietly.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Wei Yuan who had not slept all night.

There were also Wei Shuyi and others beside him.

Since Zhang Guifen had just given birth and needed confinement, which was quite boring, Wei Shuyi was worried that Wei Yuan would not be able to accompany her if something important happened, so he simply stayed in the Hou Mansion temporarily.

"What do you want to eat, madam? I'll send someone to Fan Mansion to buy it, or let the cook in the mansion cook it."

The moment Wei Yuan saw Zhang Guifen wake up, it seemed as if the rocks pressing on his chest relaxed.

Although he was overjoyed, he was even a little at a loss, so he quickly ordered his subordinates to prepare some great supplements.

When Zhang Guifen saw this, she shook her head and said with a smile: "Officer, please stop working. How long have I been asleep?"

Wei Shu said, "The whole night."

One night?

"Where is the child? Come and hold it for me to take a look at."

Zhang Guifen was very excited.

Wei Yuan immediately and carefully carried a baby to the edge of the bed.

"Guifen, look at how quiet Jingshu is. She doesn't make any noise even when she wakes up."

He learned the action of holding a child hundreds of times.

Zhang Guifen often joked, "A general who commands thousands of troops cannot even learn such a simple action as holding a child."

Wei Yuan didn't refute and laughed it off. After a long period of practice, he could finally pick up the baby skillfully.

After a whole night, this girl Jingshu was able to open her eyes.

She seemed to be looking at the people around her curiously. When her eyes fell on Wei Yuan, she was neither crying nor fussing, and was very peaceful.

The moment I saw Zhang Guifen, a very warm and familiar feeling seemed to come over my heart, and it was like opening my little mouth and laughing.

It was exactly the same as when he first met Wei Yuan.

Zhang Guifen gently touched Jingshu's cheek with her fingers and smiled sweetly. There were also two small dimples, which seemed to have thousands of charms standing out.

As a first-time mother, the maternal love that shines through every frown and smile is already beyond words.

"Jingshu is so beautiful."

"Jingshu, do you know who I am?"

"I am your mother"

"Jingshu."

After teasing Jing Shu for a while, Zhang Guifen remembered her son's affairs.

"Before I fell asleep, I heard from the midwife that there was another male, Qiji? Where is he?"

She had long known about the emperor's naming.

When the child was mentioned, Wei Yuan became furious.

"If it weren't for this child, how could you have slept for a night? I have sent someone to take care of him, so don't worry."

Zhang Guifen frowned and said, "What does it have to do with the child? Bring him over quickly and let me take a look."

Wei Yuan said: "You should have a good rest first."

Zhang Guifen shook his head, "Brother Wei, go quickly."

If she needs Wei Yuan to do something, Wei Yuan is unwilling or unwilling to go.

So just hearing her call "Brother Wei" would make Wei Yuan's heart melt, so how could he not do it?

After hearing this, he slowly stood up from the bed and went to hug Wei Qiji.

A moment later, Zhang Guifen heard a cry of a baby in the distance. She felt extremely uncomfortable when she heard it. She couldn't help but want to get up and stay down, worried that Wei Yuan wouldn't hold the child properly.

Wei Shu knew what she was thinking and said, "Just rest, I'll go take a look."

Just as he was about to walk out of the house, he saw Wei Yuan coming here casually holding his child. Upon seeing this, Wei Shuyi said quickly:

"How can you hold a child like this? Give me your little brother quickly. This is the only heir of our Wei family. How can you be so negligent!"

With that said, he snatched it from Wei Yuan's hand, and while coaxing Qiji, he walked towards Zhang Guifen,

"Auntie is here. Don't cry when you are sick. Don't cry."

After coaxing him for a while, Wei Qiji really stopped crying.

Wei Shuyi glared at Wei Yuan again,

"Guifen is lethargic, and it's not Qiji's fault. If you have any grudges, vent them on me. Why would you do this to a child?"

"If you really don't like this child, just do as your mother-in-law said and send the child to the Duke's Mansion."

She also said this in anger.

After all, if you think about it carefully, how can a father not love his children?

Perhaps it is because of love that you have to pretend to be indifferent whether in front of your own family or outsiders.

After all, he was the youngest commander of the Imperial Palace since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty.

After Wei Ruyi said sorry, Wei Ruyi also stepped forward and hit Wei Yuan a few times and said:

"Don't do this from now on."

Afterwards, Wei Shuyi put Qiji on the other side of Zhang Guifen.

Zhang Guifen looked at Qiji, who was also trying hard to open his eyes and look at her.

For some reason, the two women laughed in unison.

Zhang Guifen also carefully kissed Qiji's forehead and murmured:

"Our family Qiji has been so handsome since he was a child. I don't know how many women he will harm in the future."

Hearing this, Wei Yuan snorted coldly: "If you dare to harm another girl, break her legs!"

Perhaps the child Qiji 'felt' his father's severity, so he burst into tears suddenly.

Wei Ruyi was upright and kicked Wei Yuan directly, saying: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will break your legs first!"

Even Zhang Guifen couldn't bear it anymore, "I used to think that the officials were just joking. If the officials don't like men, they don't need to have someone from the Wei family to inherit them, just leave first."

"Qiji was just born and I never provoked you. Why are you so harsh?"

Wei Yuan was silent, and he was very particular about his acting.

After Zhang Guifen finished speaking, he coaxed Wei Qiji to

"Don't be afraid, mother is here. If your father dares to say anything again, mother will not spare him!"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Qiji stopped crying.

At this moment, the voices of Chen Daniu and others suddenly sounded from Chunyi Pavilion,

"I heard that my sister-in-law gave birth to Linzi and Linnu yesterday, and my brothers and I are here to congratulate them."

"Brother, let us see our nieces and nephews."

"."

Hear the words.

Before anyone else could say anything, Zhang Guifen frowned slightly and said softly:

"Officer, please go out and ask them to keep their voices down. Don't let them scare the child."

Wei Yuan nodded.

As soon as he left, Wei Shu said seriously:

"My little brother just feels that the birth of Qiji's child has affected your vitality, and I feel a little unhappy. It's also out of my love for you."

Zhang Guifen nodded slightly, sighed, and said nothing. She only had eyes for the two children beside her.

Today Chen Daniu and others came, all clamoring to see Wei Yuan's two children.

Since the child had just been born, Wei Yuan did not agree to their request and planned to wait until the full moon wine day.

The news that Zhongyong Hou had given birth to a son and a daughter spread like wildfire, and soon, all the nobles in Bianjing City knew about it.

However, the Hou Mansion was a little quiet, with only some military generals who had a good relationship with Wei Yuan coming to congratulate him.

However, the British government has already been trampled to the ground.

They all planned to let Zhang Fu lead the way and arrange a baby marriage with the two children of the Hou family.

After all, Wei Jingshu is the eldest daughter of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion. In the hearts of Chen Daniu and others, she is no different from the princess of the royal family.

Not surprisingly, Wei Qiji, the eldest son, will inherit the Hou Mansion's family business in the future.

Which family wouldn't want to get married to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion?

One evening.

Zhang Fugang sent away Duke Fu.

Mrs. Zhang slowly appeared in the main hall and asked, "Fu Guogong always goes to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. Why is he here?"

Zhang Fu stroked his beard and said, "Didn't Qin Zhen's child give birth to a boy last year? In the future, he will inherit the title of Duke of Fu."

"Brother Qin heard that Yuan'er gave birth to a daughter, and he wanted Qin Zhen to marry Yuan'er."

relatives by marriage?

Mrs. Zhang, who was already sitting at her seat drinking tea, suddenly lost her composure. She even knocked the tea cup over to the ground, slammed the table, stood up suddenly and said:

"My precious granddaughter has just been born, and the Qin family comes here to make plans? Are you ashamed?"

Zhang Fu said quickly: "Please keep your voice down, our family and Duke Fu's family are considered family friends."

Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang felt bad and said angrily: "You agreed?"

Zhang Fu shook his head, "How dare I agree? If I agree, not to mention Yuan'er, I'm afraid that girl Guifen will fight for me."

Mrs. Zhang just breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I am only a granddaughter. If you dare to sell my newborn granddaughter for the sake of the marriage between your martial arts, I will fight with you!"

She also lost her temper rarely.

Jingshu is a very quiet girl. She doesn't cry or make trouble on weekdays. Every time the old lady sees her, she feels very fond of her. She thinks that Jingshu is more obedient than Guifen when she was a child. She will definitely be loved by everyone when she grows up. .

If her life-long events were decided at this time, the old lady would definitely not be able to do as she wished.

"In the past few days, in addition to their brothers, there are also many clan members who are also asking about it, hoping to get in touch with Yuan'er."

"This girl Jingshu has just been born, but she has attracted so many distinguished people to flock to her. I really don't know what she will do when she grows up."

Zhang Fu believed that Wei Jingshu would be even more famous than his daughter Zhang Guifen in the future.

After all, Zhang Guifen was not treated like this when she was a child, and powerful people often wanted to marry her to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

The reason can be explained in just a few words - the eldest daughter of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

The weight of these seven words is in no way inferior to that of the only daughter of a British prince, including the former only daughter of a brave prince.

"It's just for others. When I went to court today, I heard from people in the palace that the officials also specifically asked about how this girl Jingshu looked like when she was born."

"Prince Zhao Xi. Alas, how many days has Jingshu been born? She has already caused so much trouble. If she grows up, she will be blamed for it."

Zhang Fu was quick to talk for a while.

Mrs. Zhang glared at him fiercely, "Bah, bah, bah!"

"How can you tell me how your granddaughter is doing?"

"If these words get out from your mouth, will our granddaughter's reputation be lost?"

Zhang Fu quickly changed his words and said: "I am saying that our granddaughter will be so beautiful that she will conquer the country and the city in the future."

Only then did Mrs. Zhang give up.

At this moment, Tian Zhen, the maid from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, hurriedly came over.

"Master, madam, something bad is going on!"

"The master of my family got into a fight with General Qin Zhenqin, the young prince of the auxiliary family."

"My master also said that he would kill General Qin."

ah?

Hearing this, Zhang Fu immediately frowned and said, "Qin Zhen, this kid, won't go to the house to arrange a baby kiss with your master, right?"

Tian Zhen nodded, "This time General Qin even brought the betrothal tokens, and even brought the young master he gave birth to, and General Qin's wife also came."

Before Mrs. Zhang could get angry, Zhang Fu was already furious.

"What a great auxiliary prince! This is a plan to catch a duck. If such a commotion occurs, how will my granddaughter be said by outsiders?"

"Come here, bring me my knife. I'm going to chop up Mr. Fuguo!"

"Tell Yuan'er to chop the Qin boy to death!"

——

at the same time.

In the mansion of Zhongyong Hou.

Zhang Guifen and Mrs. Qin stood outside the door of a house and kept saying:

"Official, stop fighting, lest you damage the peace between the two families!"

"Stop fighting, why are you still standing there? Hurry and separate the young master and the marquis!"

"."

However, no matter what Zhang Guifen said, the servants in the Hou Mansion remained unmoved.

It’s not that I don’t move, it’s that I really don’t dare to move!

The Marquis even took the Guan Dao given by the official family. He wanted to kill the young master of Fuguo's family alive!

"Amicable? So damn angry!"

"My precious daughter has just been born, so you're here to make plans, right?"

"You don't even care what your son looks like. How dare you covet my precious daughter? If I don't kill you today, I won't be called Wei Wudi!"

Wei Yuan was really angry.

At first, in the house, he was holding Wei Jingshu, Zhang Guifen was holding Wei Qiji, and the family of four was enjoying themselves. What a wonderful scene!

As a result, Qin Zhen came, just come, and he brought his son with him.

Without saying a few words, he took a Pisces jade pendant and broke it in half in front of Wei Yuan, saying it was half Jingshu and half his child.

Wei Yuan asked what he meant.

Qin Zhen said, "Our two families are so close, so it's not too much to have a son and a daughter, right?"

Not too much?

Wei Yuan went crazy on the spot.

Why do you have the nerve to say these words?

Damn it, stop living!

At this moment, Qin Zhen was hiding around, and Wei Yuan almost knelt down and kept saying hurriedly,

"Brother Wei, just think I'm joking. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it."

"Brother Wei, I was wrong, I was so wrong."

"I'll punish myself with three drinks later. Brother Wei, don't be impulsive!"

Having said that, if Wei Yuan had not appeared and Gu Tingye's fortune in the original drama had not been achieved, the future figurehead for Wu Xun would probably have been Qin Zhen, the future auxiliary prince.

At the same time, the eldest son of Prince Wu, who had come all the way from the south of the Yangtze River not long ago, was standing outside the gate of the Hou Mansion with his three-year-old child, intending to follow his father's wishes and come to 'congratulate' Wei Yuan on his joy. One son and one daughter.

As a result, the guard guarding the door said that Wei Yuan was chasing Qin Zhen, the eldest son of Duke Fu. After asking the reason, the prince of Wu trembled quickly, got into the carriage with his child in his arms, and left. ,

"Quick, quick, get out of here, quick, quick!"

When the carriage set off, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his child, and murmured:

"My son, don't blame me for not fighting for you, father. Father really hasn't lived enough!"
