Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog
Chapter 136 3 Baptisms
Seeing his overflowing fatherly love, Grandma He didn't care anymore.
It’s not a bad thing anyway.
Just ask the maid to keep a close eye on her and make sure her precious great-granddaughter doesn't suffer any harm.
But after two days, she found that He An really took good care of the child.
Burping, changing the diaper ring, coaxing the baby to sleep...
Step by step, although I was a little unfamiliar at the beginning, I soon got the hang of it.
Later, when the child was in his arms, he would hum comfortably.
Grandmother He was amazed when she saw it.
Therefore, on the third day of the baby's birth, she went to entertain Su's mother and left with peace of mind.
After coming out, he couldn't help but show off this to Su's mother.
After hearing this, Su's mother was even more shocked than He's grandmother.
After the shock, there is comfort in the heart.
She was also worried that her daughter would give birth to a daughter and her son-in-law and in-laws would be unhappy, so she brought some extra things to support her.
I didn't expect that my son-in-law loved the child so much and did everything himself.
After Grandmother He went to entertain the others, Mother Su found Father Su Erlang and whispered in the corner, "…The granddaughter is so pretty, and the son-in-law is very caring, and he doesn't want to let anyone else hold her."
After hearing this, Father Su also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was not appropriate for him to enter his daughter's room, so he could only listen to what Su's mother said when she came back.
Fortunately, the news is all good news.
Su Erlang, however, had a look on his face that said, "You are worrying too much. I told you this morning that my brother-in-law loves the child so much that he wants to hold the child even when he goes to the toilet!"
Mother Su: "Go away, go away, you are everywhere. No matter how much you say, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, how can I be at ease?"
Father Su: "He doesn't have a daughter now. When he has one in the future, he will know how it feels."
Su's mother agreed repeatedly, "That's right, when you give birth to a daughter tomorrow, I wonder if you will still say such sarcastic words!"
Su Erlang was scolded by his parents together and couldn't even raise his head.
He wasn't saying anything sarcastic!
He is just telling the truth!
But Su's father and mother ignored him and continued talking to themselves in low voices.
Father Su looked at the endless stream of people around him and said, "My in-laws also value this child. I just took a look around and saw quite a few people coming."
After listening to this, Su's mother looked around and nodded with satisfaction.
It’s such a big event, so we should pay more attention to it.
Seeing that everyone has arrived, it’s almost time.
Grandfather He said a few polite words, then had the child brought in and the ceremony began.
The midwife came over and poured hot water made from locust twigs and mugwort leaves into the copper basin, and placed other ceremonial items aside.
At this time, Grandmother He stepped forward and carefully took the child.
Grandfather He picked up the incense and lit it, saying, "Thank you, Goddess, for blessing my family with a baby boy. I hope you will continue to bless the child to grow up healthily and safely in the future."
He bowed three times to the Goddess of Childbirth on the incense table, inserted the incense into the incense burner, picked up the wooden spoon on the table next to him, and added a spoonful of water into the copper basin.
Then put the small golden beans that had been prepared long ago into it.
The midwife was staring at the baby with her eyes wide open. When she finally realized what was happening, she was so happy that her teeth were showing. The money in the basin would all be hers later.
I didn't expect the host to be so generous, so I shouted loudly, "Long water flows, smart and clever; gold and jade fill the house, rich and auspicious."
Here, Grandmother He also held the child and bowed three times to the statue, then went over to add water and put in a small piece of silver.
The midwife was even happier, and she said a lot of good things, "May your fortune be prosperous and money will come from all directions!"
Then it was Su's father and mother's turn. They had never seen such a scene.
It is rare for country people to even perform the three-day bath, let alone such a tedious and detailed procedure.
Fortunately, Grandmother He had told them about it early in the morning, and Grandpa and Grandma He had also prepared a proof.
They also stepped forward and worshipped the gods first, then added a spoonful of water.
Then take out the prepared copper coins, red dates and longans and throw them in.
When the midwife saw this, she thought it was a good omen and immediately shouted out the auspicious words she had prepared long ago, "May you have a son soon (Zhao) and may you have many precious (Gui) sons!"
The relatives and friends who were invited later added more bowls in order of seniority.
Close relatives who have some money, such as Uncle He's family and Uncle He's family, would add some silver.
Families that are not well-off will add some peanuts, eggs, dates, chestnuts and other items with good meanings.
Every time a baby was born, the midwife would say some auspicious words to bless the child.
It was very lively for a while.
It is worth mentioning that the second branch of the He family sent He Peng’s wife to add the basin.
In the past, Grandma He would probably be angry again, but after what happened during the Dragon Boat Festival two days ago, she didn't want to care about it anymore.
As for the second brother's family, unless it is a matter of life and death, the rest is up to them.
After everything was added, the midwife looked at the contents of the copper basin calmly.
I knew that a wealthy family like this would prepare a large copper basin.
The small copper basin can’t hold so many things!
She secretly withdrew her gaze. Since the host was generous, she naturally worked harder.
The midwife came forward, picked up the pestle and stirred the basin, singing as she did so:
"One stir, two stirs, three stirs, the elder sister leads the younger brother to run. Seventy-year-old, eighty-year-old, crooked-haired, naughty, they are all here!"
Then he took the child from Grandmother He and carefully placed him in the copper basin.
The baby suddenly touched the warm water from the cradle and started crying loudly, his voice very loud.
Friends and relatives around laughed in good faith, and one even said, "This voice is full of energy, and you can tell from the sound that this is a healthy child."
Grandpa and grandmother He were also happy. The louder the child cried at this time, the more blessed he was.
The midwife scooped up some water and sprinkled it on the child's head, "Wash your hair first, and become a king;"
Then he scooped up some water and sprinkled it on his waist, "Wash your waist later, and each generation will be taller than the last!"
Every time we wash a place, we sing a blessing.
After washing, wrap the child up.
Then he picked up the etiquette items that had been prepared on the side and placed them carefully on the child step by step, then took them back.
As always, every time one of them is played, a lucky phrase is sung: "One is smart, two is clever!"
"A small weight can weigh a thousand gold!"
"Grow up, head tight, feet tight, hands tight!"
...
When everything was over, the midwife carefully handed the baby over to the host family.
Grandfather He then waved his hand and said, "Let's eat!"
Everyone happily sat down to eat.
Su's mother was watching in amazement, but she was sitting at the main table, in the public eye, so she couldn't say anything.
I’m afraid that if others hear me, they will say I’ve never seen the world.
Therefore, he could only hold it in and find Su Yan to talk about it after the banquet.
She used gestures to describe today's scene to Su Yan.
“…You didn’t see it. It was sung line by line. It sounded so beautiful! Our little baby has these blessings right after he was born. He will definitely have great fortune in the future.”
Su Yan listened with great interest.
To be honest, she has never seen the ancient version of the third day bath!
I didn't know there were such procedures.
I felt a little regretful for a moment that I didn’t see it with my own eyes because I couldn’t get out of bed!
After Su's mother finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, "Oh, I forgot to ask you, have you named the child? What's his name?"
Su Yan was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that she had forgotten about this.
But the child is still young, so it’s okay to give him a nickname first.
It’s not too late to think about your name slowly.
"Toot?"
He An said in surprise while holding the child.
Su Yan nodded, "Yes! I told mom this afternoon that my nickname is Dudu."
As she spoke, she looked down at her swaddled daughter and said, "Look at this child, so fair, tender and chubby. Calling her Dudu is so appropriate!"
He An also looked down.
Well, small, with chubby cheeks.
It is indeed very appropriate.
"Okay, let's call it Dudu!"
After saying that, He An rubbed his face against his daughter's little face, "Dudu, Dudu, do you like your nickname?"
After rubbing, he couldn't help but kiss his daughter's little face.
