Chapter 243 Two sons a day

Before entering the house, Xu Ping saw a man sitting on the steps in front of the door from afar, shaking his head and flirting with his clothes, which was extremely indecent.

After looking closely for a while, Xu Ping said to Tan Hu beside him: "Look at the person sitting at our doorstep, are you the supervisor?"

Tan Hu put a pergola in his hand for a while and looked surprised: "Yes, it's the supervisor who is sitting there! It's strange. He knows the supervisor himself and has always only known that he is steady. When have he seen this? Could something happened in Xijing?"

Xu Ping did not dare to neglect and hurriedly urged him to step forward.

Xu Chang saw Xu Ping and his group coming, jumped up from the steps, and walked up quickly.

Most of the guards accompanying him have been with Xu Ping for many years. Who doesn’t know the butler of the Xu family? He dared not stop him and gave up the passage and let Xu Chang reach Xu Ping’s horse.

Xu Chang stepped up and pulled Xu Ping's reins, which scared Xu Ping.

"Dalang, a great happy event! The wife and Xiuxiu gave birth on the same day and gave birth to two Lin'er! The Xu family has a descendant!"

Xu Ping looked at Xu Chang in front of the horse and looked at him with big eyes tightly. He was a little confused for a while. After a while, he realized and grabbed Xu Chang's shoulder: "Okay! OK! Can mother and son be safe?"

Xu Chang said loudly: "Mother and son are safe!"

"Just be safe! Just be safe!" Xu Ping muttered a few words, feeling his thoughts were chaotic, and he didn't know what he should do for a moment. He just was stunned when riding on the horse.

Tan Hu whispered: "Officials, we are close to our home, so it's better for us to go home and talk."

"Okay, go home! Go home!" Xu Ping said, turning over and jumping off the horse, pulling Xu Chang's arm, and stroking towards the door.

After entering the house, he was stunned on the stone bench under the big tree for a while, and then Xu Ping came to his senses and said to Xu Chang: "Master, thank you for your hard work on the road. Let's wash your face. When we come back, we will talk!"

Xu Chang got up with a smile and thanked him, and went to wash his face. When the child was born, he confirmed that the mother and son were safe, so he rode on a fast horse and rushed to the capital. He had almost no rest along the way, so he wanted to tell Xu Ping the good news as soon as possible.

The two daughters are well-behaved and sensible, but they are daughters after all. Although Zhang Sanniang doesn't say anything, she hopes to hold her grandson every day. Xu Ping is the only son, and the incense of the Xu family is to be passed on. How can you do without a son?

This kind of thing seems to be contagious. Xiuxiu and Lin Suniang were not pregnant at the same time, but gave birth on the same day. Zhang Sanniang pulled her husband's two families back and forth in one day, but she didn't know how many times she had traveled back and forth. Her shoes were worn out, but she didn't feel tired at all. When she knew that she had two grandchildren in one day, Zhang Sanniang's mouth had never closed, and her face was as happy as if she was blooming on her face.

After a while, Xu Ping slowly digested the news brought by Xu Chang. He felt that the surprises were mixed, and his whole body felt different. This was not that he favored boys over girls. When his two daughters were born, they did not report him good luck at the first time. When Panpan was born, he was thousands of miles away. Needless to say, when his second daughter An An was born, the family was different from what he thought and did not pay so much attention. It was not until Lin Su Niang brought him to Luoyang that he got the exact news. This kind of thing relies on the impact of the first time. When it was too late, the kiss was still the same, but there was a missing surprise.

After coming back to his senses, Xu Ping called Liu Xiaoyi and took out a handful of money and silver from his body. He didn't look at how many, and said to him: "You go to reward the people in your family, no matter who they are, as long as they are from our family, you will be rewarded!"

Liu Xiaoyi turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xu Ping and said to him: "Also, all the breathing creatures, horses and cows at home will be added tonight! You can also prepare some incense and candles to burn the world!"

Xu Ping never prayed to God and worshiped Buddha in his previous life, and he didn't care whether there was a God or not. Today, he only felt that he had nowhere to release his joy. He thanked everyone who could thank him one by one today.

Liu Xiaoyi had just taken two steps and was called back by Xu Ping. He touched himself without money and said to him: "Get some money in the account, don't ask how much, just collect it from too much! Buy some good wine and good dishes, and we will celebrate at home tonight!"

Liu Xiaoyi agreed to the promise, but this time he refused to leave, and said to Xu Ping: "Officials, I have something to tell you together, so I can do it together. It's not that I'm afraid of hard work, but I'm afraid of delaying my skills."

Xu Ping smiled and waved his hand: "No more, just these things, you can do it. Oh, there is another thing. Go to the Grand Marshal Li's mansion, one is to report the good news, and the other is to invite Li Zhang to come and drink with me. Forget it, the supervisor is back. Let the supervisor do this matter, just go and do something else!"

Liu Xiaoyi smiled and shook his head helplessly. He could feel the joy in Xu Ping's heart, and took the money to reward people first. He started as a servant in the Xu family. For more than ten years, he has become the supervisor of many industries. Speaking of life, Liu Xiaoyi also has a big house, and he hired slaves and maids at home, and even asked for a concubine. If he put aside his identity in the capital, he was also the first-rate wealthy man. Not everyone can meet this kind of life experience. Xu Ping's family is his home, Xu Ping's relatives are his relatives, and he is also happy from the bottom of his heart.

After Xu Chang washed his face, he came back. Xu Ping asked him to sit beside him and asked in detail about the physical condition of Lin Suniang and Xiuxiu. He heard that the childbirth was smooth and everything was fine, so he completely relieved. He asked the two little guys what they looked like, whether they looked like father or mother, how much they were.

How could Xu Chang say this kind of thing? He could only wait far away for a woman to give birth, and then he followed Zhang Sanniang back and forth, running around with his legs. As for what the two young men looked like, he really didn't see him.

Xu Ping was a little regretful and asked again: "Who two ladies, which one gave birth to the eldest brother and which one gave birth to the second brother?"

Xu Chang said: "This matter is not careless at all. The elders and young people are orderly, and there is no room for any mistake. The wife's childbirth is recorded according to the carvings of the family. Xiuxiu had a long time ago, and she gave birth to her elder brother."

Xu Ping nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, no matter who is big or small, he will still love him."

This is a little bit different.

At this time, the clan concepts in society were quite weak, and the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children and young children were not clear. Without a big family, there would be no one in charge. Everyone had their own affairs. When the elders were there, the affairs of the family were managed by the elders. If the elders were gone, they would be separated. Li Zhaoshu's family was not divided for seven generations, and the only one in the capital was passed down as a legend. But by Li Zhaoshu's generation, the status was far different. His own family was obviously better than other families, which was equivalent to a division of families. In a clan, when the elders were there, they would look at whoever they liked, and who had a higher status. When the elders were gone, they would look at who was the higher official position, who had more money in the family, and who had greater power, and he would speak more effectively in his own family. Even the royal family, the Song Dynasty did not follow the principle of establishing legitimates and establishing eldest sons, but chose virtuous people among the sons to become crown princes.

Lin Suniang and Xiuxiu were originally separated. There was no difference between the Xu family who gave birth to the eldest brother and the second brother.

Whoever grows and who is young is the difference between the genius. With Xu Ping's status, the descendants will of course be the official. According to this system, the genius will start from the eldest son. As the official position becomes higher and higher, the number of places increases, extends to other descendants. Similarly, as the official position becomes higher and higher than the younger brothers, the starting point is higher. Moreover, the eldest son participates in various etiquettes and has more opportunities.

The kindness only concerns the age of the elders, regardless of legitimate and illegitimate. In fact, there is no big family in society, and legitimate and illegitimate have been downplayed.

After asking about various details, Xu Ping finally calmed down and said to Xu Chang: "Master, I will work harder and go to the Grandmaster Li's mansion to report the good news, and the other one invites Li Zhang to come over and drink two glasses of wine with me. Today's great joy, I just feel that if I don't drink two glasses, I can't sleep."

Xu Changyingnuo, so he got up and went to the Li family.

Li Zhang married Ying'er, nominally Lin Wensi's adopted daughter, and he was Xu Ping's brother-in-law. The Xu family's serious relatives in the capital were only like this family, so of course they had to come over to have fun with him. As for Hu Zi, because Xiuxiu is not a family member, she is Xiuxiu's relative, but she is not a relative of the Xu family. Xu Ping himself may not care about this, but in social interactions, he must abide by the rules of this era.

Xu Chang and Liu Xiaoyi both left, and Xu Ping sat alone in the yard, looking at the red sunset in the distance through the dense branches and leaves of the trees, feeling a lot of emotion. Before he knew it, he had two children and two daughters, and a big family took shape. If there were no accidents, his own branch would bloom and become a big family of all ages.

In ten years, I have really changed a lot. In this world, I have raised a small sky. I have parents, lovers, children, all kinds of friends, and countless bonds. I have dissolved into this world and changed this world. Due to these bonds, Xu Ping has become more and more proactive and has to take the initiative.

The framework of political reform has been opened. What Xu Ping needs to do now is to carefully protect the reform and not deviate from the correct track. As for some small bumps, it is inevitable and there is no need to pay too much attention. The most important thing is to summarize experience and learn from the lessons. After all, Xu Ping himself is also learning while doing, and is not an omniscient and omnipotent prophet. Does anyone know whether it is his knowledge of the past life that is correct or is it the people of this world summarized it correctly?

As long as you are still in the reform camp and keep moving forward, all problems will be solved in practice.
