I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

Chapter 341: Washing Three Dynasties

Song Jin woke up in the evening.

After waking up and eating, I felt much more energetic.

The room had been cleaned up by Yin Long and others, and the bed sheets and quilts had been changed. There was no smell of blood, only a faint fragrance of plants and trees. This made Song Jin feel a lot more comfortable.

"Is the young lady awake?"

Yin Long said in surprise, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, it's fine."

This was not the first child, so Song Jin adapted quickly. She looked around the room but didn't see the child.

"In his grandmother's house."

As soon as Yin Long finished speaking, she saw Li holding the child in her arms. After greeting her with concern, Song Jin took the child and fed him. The baby in the swaddling clothes was just a small ball, but it made her heart melt. After the child was full.

Put it beside the bed and keep it with her.

Song Jin lay on his side and looked at the child, his eyes and brows extremely gentle.

Qin Chi sneaked in and immediately saw his wife's rare gentle side. He took a few big steps forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked down at Song Jin.

Just then Song Jin looked up at him.

He subconsciously reached out his hand and tidied Song Jin's hair, his movements were extremely gentle, "My lady, you have worked hard."

Song Jin pursed her lips and chuckled, "My husband loves me?"

"Yeah, it hurts."

Qin Chi admitted it generously for the first time.

This made Song Jin slightly stunned, and then his smile became even more intense, "My husband, please pay more attention to the family matters."

"Will do."

"That matter of the third day bath."

"You just need to take care of your health, and leave the rest to us." Qin Chi will try his best to acknowledge his father's responsibilities.

He was particularly concerned about the birth of his second son.

The baby was three days old.

Qin Chi got up early and accompanied Li to pick fresh tea leaves, fresh orange leaves and fragrant mugwort that were cut and dried during the Dragon Boat Festival of the previous year from the mountain. They put them in a basin, brewed them with boiling water, and then wiped the baby's body off the placenta, blood, feces, etc.

In Huizhou, it is commonly known as "washing the three days".

Song Jin, the mother, watched quietly at the side.

After the child washed and dressed, a bench was brought over and he was allowed to crawl over.

"What does this mean?" Song Jin was surprised.

When the twins, a boy and a girl, were born, she never got out of bed and did not carefully watch her mother-in-law baptize the children.

Li's eyebrows curved and she said happily, "Drill through a dog hole."

Song Jin was speechless for a moment.

Qin Chi at the side also laughed, "My son crawled into a dog hole just three days after he was born."

Li looked up and rolled her eyes at him, "You also went through it when you were a child. How dare you laugh at your son?"

Seeing Qin Chi being humiliated, Song Jin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Yin Long watched from the side and couldn't help laughing, "Next, my son-in-law will go to deliver the wedding wine."

"That's right. I will definitely do it beautifully."

Qin Chi took the child from Li's arms, held him for a while with unfamiliarity, and then reluctantly handed the child to Song Jin.

Everyone is very happy.

Only Song Jin's smile unconsciously faded a little when he heard the wedding wine being delivered.

From the day of the third day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the father will go out to send wedding wine, usually to the child's maternal grandparents, and then to other relatives, such as the eldest and second aunts.

When Qin Chi went to the kitchen.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lin had just prepared the wedding wine.

Generally, eggs are fried into poached eggs, commonly known as fried chicken eggs, and then mixed with rice wine and sugar and cooked.

The wedding wine was served in a large teapot.

If a boy is born, cypress branches or green bamboo leaves should be inserted into the spout of the pot. If a girl is born, just put a piece of red paper under the lid of the pot.

Qin Chi was about to set off.

"Hey, Dalang, wait a minute, when sending wedding wine, you have to bring wedding eggs too!"

Xiao Liu quickly reminded loudly.

Lin brought out a basket of red eggs.

Qin Chi took it and took a look. There were twenty-four red-dyed hard-boiled eggs.

Except for the child's maternal grandparents, who accept two eggs, the rest of the relatives usually do not accept any. When the child is one month old, all relatives who have received wedding gifts must send eggs as a return gift. In addition to eggs, the relatives usually also ask for two kilograms of cakes and a certain amount of sugar, sesame oil, and soybean oil.

The maternal grandparents would send eighty to one hundred eggs, various cooking oils and old hens, as well as three to five "nest clothes" for the children.

This is a local custom in Huizhou.

However, the child's maternal grandparents were not there.

Qin Chi thought about sending it to the pharmacy.

Song Jin is close to the Xing and Zhou families. She never says it, but most of the time she treats these two families as her own family.

The last time we had a wedding with twins, the wedding banquet was sent to these two families.

Lin couldn't help but remind him again, "Da Lang, the wedding wine should be distributed by bowl. One chicken egg and a little rice wine and sugar water make up one bowl. Each relative who comes to meet will have one bowl."

"Thank you for your hard work, Second Aunt and Third Aunt." Qin Chi said gratefully.

Little Liu waved her hand and said, "Why are you being polite? We are all family."

"Da Lang, what you said is unorthodox." Lin followed up.

Qin Chi smiled and said something again, then he carried his things and went out.

There was a carriage parked at the door.

This is to make it convenient for Qin Chi to deliver the wedding wine.

Outside there was not only the driver, Old Li, but also a handsome young man, the grown-up Sanlang. It was he who took the initiative to ask to accompany his elder brother to the wedding banquet today.

Sanlang said with a smile: "Brother, you are in high spirits when you are happy. You look even more handsome."

"When did you learn to be so smooth-talking?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows.

As he spoke, he got into the carriage.

"I mean this sincerely, from the bottom of my heart."

Sanlang followed and sat on it.

Old Li drove out of the village, and Qin Ba came out from nowhere and jumped onto the shaft of the car.

They were outside the carriage.

I heard Sanlang and Qin Chi chatting.

The topic ranged from the daily life of Qinjiagou, to the major and minor events in Yi County, and then to the experiences in Huizhou, etc. Sanlang kept talking, and he talked a little bit nonstop.

Qin Chi has also gained some knowledge.

Qin Ba and Old Li outside also gained some new insights. In fact, Old Li was still feeling emotional.

"It's delayed, it's delayed!" Old Li murmured.

Qin Ba raised his eyebrows, "What delayed you?"

"A good candidate for gathering intelligence."

Old Li didn't say it explicitly, but Qin Ba understood.

Qin Ba smiled and whispered, "I'll go back and suggest to the young master to take the boy to the capital. It will definitely save us a lot of trouble."

"That's really good." Old Li thought it was worth mentioning.

The carriage left Qinjiagou and went farther and farther away.

The villagers now all know that Qin Chi has a second son, also a big fat boy.

The wedding banquet went smoothly.

In fact, when Qin Chi went to see him off personally, no one dared to look at him coldly. On the contrary, everyone was very enthusiastic.

Qin Chi originally thought that he could stay with his child until the full moon, but then news came from the capital.

The Liu and Yang families were gone, and the Yuan family also fell into decline.

But compared with the previous two families, the Yuan family is slightly better.

Emperor Mingcheng had some affection for Yuan Shangshu after all, so he only confiscated 90% of his wealth and asked him to resign and return to his hometown. As for the other members of the Yuan family who were imprisoned, they would be sentenced according to the law.

In addition, it is said that Emperor Ming Cheng asked about Qin Chi at the court meeting.

Yan Xianqing said he went back to his hometown to visit his relatives.

According to this situation, Qin Chi would have to report to the Dali Temple in a month at most. Counting the days, excluding the time on the road, he would not be able to stay in Huizhou for long.
