Traveling to the ancient harem

Today is the third day of the Huang family's eldest daughter's bath. Since the morning, the house is filled with a cheerful atmosphere. The Huang family is famous for its kindness and upright family tradition. Although the Huang family has no in-laws, the old friends of Huang Shilang and his son, the old lady Chen's family, and the two of them are close friends. The neighbors who are on good terms with them, when they heard about the Huang family's happy event, all came to congratulate them. The eldest master even ordered a big banquet to entertain the relatives and friends present.

Chen's rose garden was also filled with female relatives who came to visit her at this time. The third-day bathing ceremony was also held here. The wife of Mr. Chen, the chief academic officer of the Imperial College, and Chen's grandmother, was a well-known and respected old lady in the capital. She personally prayed for her sister's third-day bathing, which really made everyone present envious.

"Aunt, what's your little sister's name?"

Chen's niece, who looked about six or seven years old, looked at the baby who was wrapped back in the swaddling clothes with curiosity and asked her aunt.

Chen and the old lady looked at each other at the same time, both of them not knowing whether to laugh or cry. They thought that the two well-read men had thought for two days but still couldn't come up with a name for their little girl. It was really disappointing.

In the front yard, Huang Shilang was also talking about this with the male guests. Seeing how conflicted the two men were, everyone couldn't help but laugh. However, this was a private matter of the Huang family, so no one could get involved. At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Master, there's a Taoist priest outside. He heard that our family is having a baby, so he wanted to come in and ask for a glass of wedding wine."

"Please come in." The Huang family was kind and usually treated these wandering Taoists and monks with great courtesy. Moreover, today was a happy day for the whole family.

Outside the gate of Huang's house, an old Taoist priest, about 60 or 70 years old, with white hair and beard, looked at the tall gatehouse and nodded slightly. At this time, the servant who delivered the message ran out: "Grandpa Taoist, my master wants to see you. Please follow me." The old Taoist priest followed the servant to the front yard. Huang Shilang and his son came out to greet him, clasped their fists and bowed, and respectfully welcomed the old Taoist priest into the living room and sat him down.

"I am Yuan Huizi, a Taoist from Shangqing Temple in Wuyi Mountain. I came here today on a tour and encountered your family's wedding. I came to ask for a glass of wedding wine. It is also a fate between us. I wonder what your daughter's name is."

Huang Shilang raised his hand and saluted: "I was just saying this, I've thought about a lot of things, but I don't know which one is right, and I'm having a hard time deciding."

"Let me calculate." The old Taoist priest pinched a few fingers and muttered to himself, "Born in late summer and early autumn, the name is Huang, and the generation name is Zi. I am a person with great fortune. Old master, how about taking the yellow leaf?"

"Huang Ziye, one leaf tells the coming of autumn, what a good name. Thank you, Taoist priest, for the name." Minister Huang and his son were very happy. Finally, they didn't have to worry about it anymore. When the news reached the inner courtyard, the female relatives congratulated them again. Both the host and the guests were very happy and the atmosphere was naturally lively.

"Yellow cotyledons? Why do they look like yellow leaves to me, just like the yellow leaves on the trees?" Hongger whispered to his brother.

"Don't talk nonsense. My sister's name sounds good no matter how you call it." Xuan Ge'er pouted and scolded his brother. "Remember to protect your sister in the future and don't say bad things about her in front of outsiders, okay?"

"I know," Hong Ge'er scratched his head, a little confused. He would definitely not say bad things about his sister in front of outsiders. He must protect his sister. Forget it, children don't understand adult matters. He should go to his mother's house to see his sister. His sister doesn't look as ugly as when she was born. He likes this sister.
