Chapter 1 (1/2)

Although many people still have memories of the previous dynasty in their minds, under the reform and innovation of the new emperor, the people of the whole country have gradually become familiar with the rule of the new dynasty and Some incredible laws.

In the fourth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the new emperor Zhao Pu announced a new marriage law, that is, monogamy. When a man and a woman become husband and wife, they are not allowed to remarry again.

Less than a year after the implementation of the new law, many nobles wrote against it, saying that the law was not conducive to the development of descendants of the Xia Dynasty. In the autumn of the fourth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the new emperor issued a decree that a man should not have a concubine until he was 30 years old, otherwise it would be considered illegal.

In fact, the fact that concubines were not taken up by the people and officials were not investigated. The reason why the people really accepted this new emperor was not only because he pulled down the faint monarch of the great Zhou Dynasty, but also because of his tax reduction policy, which enabled the Xia Dynasty to gradually become stable and powerful in more than ten years.

In the 12th year of Yuan Dynasty, Xili city had a rare rainstorm in summer.

Dark clouds covered the whole sky. It was noon, but it looked like late at night. The sky and the ground were almost connected in a line. The low darkness made people feel flustered. The rain fell like pouring water. There was a half foot high water on the ground. The shops on both sides of the Street had already closed their doors and windows. Only the signboard board made a splash in the gale and rain.

Xili city is next door to Kyoto City. It has always been in good weather, and there has never been any natural or man-made disaster. However, it has been raining heavily for three days. The water on the street is almost over the threshold. Seeing the weather has not turned clear, most people in the city have lost their ground.

At a time when everyone was worried about the flood, there was a small courtyard hidden in a deep lane in the north city. The family name was Guan, and the wife of Guan's family was Luo Shi. At this time, the child seemed to be frightened by the weather and had not come out of her mother's womb for three days.

Kuan Niang was almost out of breath and had little air intake. Her husband was sweating all over the outside. The arrangement of the hall was very simple. The furniture was made of ordinary wood, but it was clean and comfortable.

”My son, just sit down and wait. I'm dizzy when you walk around.” It was a woman sitting on a chair in the upper door of the hall. There was a high table between the two chairs. The hot tea on the table had cooled. The woman was about 40 years old. Her hair was neatly combed in a bun, and a silver bead hairpin was inserted in it. She was also generous and decent.

”It's been a few days now. Can't you be in a hurry?” Guan's forehead was sweating and his voice was anxious.

”Sister Guan, sister Guan...” Suddenly, a steady woman screamed in the inner room, but Guan Niang's voice became weaker.

A chill suddenly came from the bottom of Uncle Guan's feet.

Old lady Guan was also pale.

Suddenly there was a loud thunder in the sky, which made people's ears rumble.

The inner room was supposed to be the Guan Niang, who was supposed to be out of breath, and made another hoarse cry.

After a while, steady woman opened the curtain with sweat on her head and said to Uncle Guan with a smile, ”born, born!”

”Amitabha Old lady Guan read a Buddha, and the blood on her face slowly recovered.

Uncle Guan took a breath, as if to spit out the coolness, ”is it a boy?”

”A thousand gold!” Steady old woman smiles way.

Uncle Guan looked disappointed.

”I'll see my daughter-in-law.” Mrs. Guan's eyes were less cheerful, but she still went in to take care of her daughter-in-law. She had been born for three days, and the whole person had no blood. Now she was in a coma.

”It's really a blessing. It's a blessing to have a daughter safely. It's almost over just now. Thanks to the thunder, the girl's is a gift from heaven and has good fortune.” Wenpo has cut off the umbilical cord for the baby and put the baby in swaddling clothes to old lady Guan.

”Why doesn't the baby cry?” It's quiet. It's not a problem.

Wenpo took over again and patted the girl on her buttocks.

The girl babbled, but she didn't cry.

Old lady Guan's eyes are wide open. It's really strange!

Again hit two times, the girl is babbling two times, pedal legs, or did not cry.

”This is not...” Old lady Guan choked and choked, but the word ”freak” didn't come out.

”Don't worry, the girl must be a lucky person.” Wenpo has never seen a baby who doesn't cry. She can't say anything for a moment, so she has to comfort old lady Guan.

”I hope so!” Old lady Guan frowned and looked at her sleepy daughter-in-law. She still had less love for her granddaughter.

”Cook some tonic Soup for sister-in-law Guan. You should be careful at the birth. After all, it's not easy to reincarnate. Don't affect the next one.” Steady woman advised.

Old lady Guan repeatedly replied that she called her son in and handed her daughter into his hands. ”I'll cook a bowl of broth for your daughter-in-law here.”

At the end of the conversation, Mrs. Guan personally took out a stable woman from the inner room, took out a red purse from her arms and handed it over to her, ”thank you very much.”

Steady woman also did not see ground to receive in the bosom, bid farewell to leave.When Mrs. Guan went to the kitchen to cook the broth in person, he looked at the child in his arms, wrinkling and blushing, which was really ugly.

He put the child on the Kang and sat down on the chair next to him. He sighed heavily when he touched Guan Niangzi's white face. He got up and went outside.
