February [-], for many people in Suzhou, is the once-a-year Flower Festival,

Girls in the boudoir, cut five-color ribbons, stick them on the flower branches, and enjoy the redness in the stomach. In the Temple of Flowers in Huqiu, they win and offer medicine to celebrate the birthday of the immortals, which is called the Flower Dynasty.

Suzhou and Hangzhou are dubbed as the southeast city and the city of the Three Wus.

The hour is not up yet, the streets are already bustling with people, from the rich and noble homes of Zhong Ding to the common people below, all want to share the auspicious day, but in the official residence of Lantai doctor Lin Ruhai, it is another scene.

Lin Ruhai's surname is Lin Minghai, and his name is Ruhai. The ancestor of Lin Ruhai once attacked Liehou, and now he is in Ruhai.At the beginning, only the third generation was enshrined, because today's Long En Shengde is far ahead of the previous generation, with extra grace, the father of Zhi Ruhai inherited another generation; , (from Dream of Red Mansions) is considered to have won the emperor's heart, and he married Jia Min, the prostitute of Rongguo's mansion, as his wife.

However, the Lin family is not prosperous and has limited descendants. Even Lin Ruhai has no heirs in his [-]s. In order to avoid other people's gossip and no successors in the Lin family, Jia Min bought a few concubines for her husband, but it was difficult to fulfill her wish. .

Fortunately, in June last year, Jia Min, the mistress of the Lin family, was diagnosed as being more than one month pregnant. The couple couldn't help but pay homage to their ancestors and gods and Buddhas many times in hopes of giving birth to a child.

And the night before the Huachao Festival, Jia Min's body started to move, struggling for two or three hours, but before giving birth, the maid came out of the room with pots of blood, and Lin Ruhai, who was standing at the door, listened. Hearing the groans of his beloved wife Jia Min, his heart fluttered, and he could only pray to the ancestors of the Lin family to protect his wife and children.

Although the situation was a bit urgent and flustered, the maid Wen Po and the others were in order, and they were not in a hurry, fearing that something might go wrong, otherwise they would not be able to take care of it.

"The birth canal has finally opened, hurry up and get the ginseng slices, otherwise the wife will have no strength later and won't be able to give birth." Wen Po hurriedly said,

Jia Min's dowry maid, Cai Ping, immediately took out the prepared slices of ginseng and fed them to Jia Min, and then wiped the sweat off Jia Min's forehead with a handkerchief, "Madam, hold on, the child will come out soon!" gone."

"Ma'am, work harder." Wen Po shouted.

As soon as Gu Lai regained consciousness, he was pushed out by a thrust, "I gave birth, my wife gave birth." Gu Lai who had just come out was picked up by Mrs. Wen, and she slapped her buttocks twice skillfully. The pain caused Gu Lai to cry aloud, and fell asleep again after crying.

"It's a daughter." Jia Min took a look at the child, felt relieved, and fell asleep.Wen Po wrapped the child in the prepared yellow brocade and showed it to Lin Ruhai outside the door.

Mrs. Wen said with a smile on her face: "Lord Lin, I have been delivering babies for so many years, and I have never seen such a fair girl from birth, a natural beauty."

"Okay, okay, take my mother-in-law down to receive the reward, and the entire family will get paid twice a month." Lin Ruhai waved his hand vigorously.

"Thank you, master." The servants around were also happy in their hearts, but they couldn't compare to the joy in Lin Ruhai's heart.

Knowing that the five generations of the Lin family are single-handed, the population is small, in order to bear him a child, his wife also took a lot of medicine, prayed to God and worshiped Buddha, and was under pressure.Although this is a daughter, it is also the flesh and blood that his husband and wife have been looking forward to for ten years.

Looking at the child in his arms, Lin Ruhai felt a bond of flesh and blood from his heart, and felt the pride and joy of being a father.

Jia Min, who also woke up, loved her daughter who was pregnant in October, and Caiping on the side also comforted her: "It always blooms first and then bears fruit. When the body is well established, the wife will have a brother sooner or later. "

"I hope so." Jia Min patted her daughter a few times, humming, and there was tenderness in her eyes that couldn't be erased.

As a newborn baby, Gu Lai obviously didn't have much energy and spent most of the day sleeping.If you are hungry or thirsty, you will hum a few words if you want to pull it.

Seeing this Caiping and Mother Wang, who is Gu Lai's nurse, both courted Jia Min and said: "The girl is a governor who loves others. When she grows up, she must be the wife's caring little padded jacket."

Hearing these words, Jia Min felt sweet in her heart, and said: "My daughter is very good." Speaking of this, he asked the master if he could choose a name.

"The master said, this name should be chosen well, no, the master has been flipping through books and classics these days."

"My husband is a talent for finding flowers, I think it will not be bad." Jia Min asked about various matters in the mansion one by one, while Gu Lai was still in a daze, thinking that this time the dream was really long.

After pondering for several days, Lin Ruhai came to Jia Min's room excitedly, and told her through the screen that after all, Jia Min was not confinement yet, so she couldn't see her.

"Min'er, would you like to take the word Daiyu for your husband?"

"Happy frown and silent, Dai's four manners. When the heart stops where it is, you can have manners. The word Daiyu is naturally good."

Seeing that his wife also agreed with his name, Lin Ruhai was also quite proud, and stroked the beard that had just grown on his chin with a smile.

And Gu Lai, who was still asleep, didn't know that he had actually given the name of the heroine in Cao Da's Dream of the Red Chamber.
