Chapter 48 first quarter

The day when He Ruohan gave birth was the last day of the first lunar month. The newborn was a white and fat boy, weighing a full eight catties. According to the measurement rules of sixteen taels a catty at that time, it was exactly one hundred and twenty-eight taels. Lucky number!Cheng Hanru and his wife were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths shut. Last year, they adopted a son and married a daughter-in-law. This year, they had a grandson in their arms. For the old couple, these three things are more exciting than Lianzhong Sanyuan.Mrs. Cheng Er had the opportunity to sing the leading role once, and she dominated the whole family, young and old, and she was too busy.Han Yutiao also became an important person, guarding in front of He Ruohan's bed, urinating and excreting, working very hard.After the San San day, Cheng Hanru took a "Perpetual Calendar" and carefully checked the four pillars and eight characters of his grandson. The result was: Gui Chou, Jia Yin, Ding Hai, and Yi Mao. Went to Yaowang Temple and asked Elder Zhiyuan to see it.Elder Zhiyuan told that in the horoscope, 20% gold, 20% water, 40% fire, and lack of soil and wood, he suggested that when naming the name, make up wood and soil, and take into account the phases of stems and branches, conflicts, punishments, crossings, and fleeting fortunes. Life theory and so on, and finally the hexagram is: "Numerology is ups and downs and hardships, life is hard and lonely, although there are noble people to help fame, the sunset and evening scenery are wasted."

Hearing the hexagrams of Elder Zhiyuan, Cheng Hanru was very disappointed. Elder Zhiyuan comforted him and said, "Second Mister, don't be too depressed. Although this son has suffered a lot of hardships, he has merit and fame that can honor his ancestors. He is considered a precious son. Ordinary people can get it." After hearing this, Cheng Hanru turned his worries into joy, thanked Elder Zhiyuan and left. Elder Zhiyuan looked at Cheng Hanru's back and was filled with emotion. He blurted out and sang: "Cheng is the King of Hekou, he was destined to grow food, but he chose to be a bird in the apricot forest, and the grass under the forest is hard to beat!"

Cheng Hanru had just walked not far, when he heard Elder Zhiyuan's libretto, he turned around and asked Elder Zhiyuan: "If the elder wishes, will the Cheng family be safe if they dismiss the doctor and return to the fields?" Elder Zhiyuan said: "The word 'He' is covered with the word 'He'. As long as the heart is willing to be romantic, the apricot forest will be destroyed by the wind, and the forest will be destroyed by the wind." Cheng Hanru thanked Elder Zhiyuan again, and left disappointed.When he got home, he only said the words "Glory to the ancestors with fame and glory", without mentioning "toughness and tribulation" at all. The family happily asked him and Cheng Shaobo to quickly name him as "replenishing wood and earth".He Ruohan heard the news and said to Han Yutiao: "Shaozhong left an order before leaving, saying that it is called Xingpu, and it can be used for both boys and girls. I wonder if this name can be used?"

Hearing He Ruohan's words conveyed by Han Yutiao, Cheng Shaobo immediately agreed: "The apricot garden is very good! It not only mended the wood, but also filled the soil - the garden is also a garden, and it contains the meaning of soil. Fill wood and soil." Han Yutiao said, "It sounds nice." Mrs. Cheng Er said: "I think it's okay, so let's do it according to Shaozhong's idea. What do you think?" She asked Cheng Hanru. On the way back from the Yaowang Temple, Cheng Hanru made up his mind not to let the child study medicine again. Now when he heard the word "Xing" again, he felt a little disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't express his reasoning, he just said: "... ...It's just...is the word 'Xing' okay?"

Mrs. Cheng Er immediately said: "Why not? The word 'Xing' has been added to the wood again, and it has the meaning after Xinglin. I think it is very good." After hearing his wife's explanation about Xinglin's queen, Cheng Hanru also felt that it made sense—whether to be a doctor or not, this child is also a descendant of Xinglin's family, which is right, so he murmured: "It's fine if you agree. " Han Yutiao immediately ran to tell He Ruohan, pointing to the newborn lying on the kang, and shouted repeatedly: "Xingpu wow, Xingpu wow, you obediently kiss Xingpu wow!"

At this moment, Mrs. Qin came to report that more than 200 households in Bajiaotai Town had sent representatives to plant apricot trees. Cheng Shaobo went out to see that seven or eight big men were digging tree pits outside the apricot forest.Two carts were filled with apricot saplings.When the leader saw Cheng Shaobo, he rushed forward to say hello, claiming to be recommended by more than 200 households in the town, and thanked the imperial doctor Cheng for giving free medicine last summer, which cured the town of influenza.I wanted to plant apricot trees last fall, but I was afraid that the survival rate would not be as high as in spring, so I delayed until today.Although it was planted one winter late, everyone has not forgotten the kindness of Cheng Yuyi, please don't blame Cheng Yucheng.

It was only then that Cheng Shaobo remembered that Fan Xiaojin had donated medicine for free at Bajiaotai on the day Fan Xiaojin had the accident, and he had controlled the flood of influenza in Bajiaotai town in time.Afterwards, he had already forgotten.No, the beneficiaries were so obsessed with it, and they took advantage of this early spring to plant apricot trees, which warmed his heart, and he hurriedly asked Mrs. Qin to make tea and water for everyone, and let him cook.The leader refused to accept his resignation. After planting more than 200 apricot trees, he drove away in his car. As soon as the tree planter left, Mrs. Qin reported that someone was looking for her outside, saying that she had just returned from the United States.As soon as Cheng Hanru heard that the United States had come back, he hurriedly asked him to come into the room, saying repeatedly: "This is such a coincidence, I just sent a message to Shaozhong, telling him that he has a son!"

Fang Zhiwu came in.He and Tang Renjie were escorted out of the country by the US Immigration Service on February 1.A week ago he broke up with Tang Renjie in Shanghai, and when he returned to Peiping three days ago, he specially hired a wooden-wheeled gondola to go back to Fengtian via the Yaowang Temple. After entering the door, he was surprised to see Cheng Shaobo at first, and then he realized that it was Cheng Shaozhong's twin brother, so he calmed down. After sitting down, he drank a cup of tea first, and then took out a card to meet Cheng Shaozhong on the day he went to Washington's former residence. The group photo said: "I am a friend of Cheng Shaozhong, an international student who went to Fengtian, and I teach Cheng Shaozhong English, so the relationship can be said to be the best." Then, he took out a photo of Sophia holding Cheng Shaozhong's neck and said: "Later, he To marry this American girl, I told him that he left his family and career in order to study, he shouldn’t be busy marrying a foreign woman before he finished his studies, but he didn’t listen, and then they broke up.” After finishing speaking, he handed the photo to Cheng Hanru.

"Is he really married?" Cheng Hanru glanced at the photo and asked eagerly. "Married. Because of marrying this American girl, they drove to New York to play, and there was a car accident when they came back, all..." Fang Zhiwu stopped on purpose. "What's the matter?" Cheng Shaobo felt that the matter was serious and asked anxiously. "It's all crashed to death!" Fang Zhiwu said and wiped his eyes pretendingly. "Ah! They were all killed?" Mrs. Cheng couldn't believe her ears. "The car crashed and people were killed!" Fang Zhiwu said, "Because this American girl is the daughter of Mrs. Brown, she is afraid of telling your family the real news immediately and being blamed by your family, so she doesn't want to let your family know the truth so quickly. I am graduating this time. When he returned to China, he specifically asked me not to talk about it, but I felt that my friend should not talk about it once, so I made a special detour and passed by the Yaowang Temple to tell your family that the car is waiting for me outside, and I will leave immediately.” After finishing speaking. , stood up and walked out.

At this time, Cheng Hanru and his wife were paralyzed and in a trance, not knowing what to say or what to do.Cheng Shaobo told Han Yutiao to be optimistic about the two elders. Although he was also upset, he still wanted to put a few dollars in his arms for Fang Zhiwu to express his gratitude, and sent them outside the door. Before getting into the car, Fang Zhiwu said to Cheng Shaobo: "I am a friend of Shaozhong, and I have something to say. Shaozhong's wife should make other arrangements earlier." Cheng Shaobo nodded his thanks repeatedly, and watched the wooden wheeled open car gallop away. , and stood for a long time.

At this moment, Han Yutiao rushed out the door and shouted, "Quick, Second Aunt has passed out."
