  Chapter 178 Snuff bottle

   "Looking at his eyebrows, he looks very much like your second brother!" Zhao Lanhua hugged her chubby grandson, and bent her eyebrows with a smile, "This ear looks like your second sister-in-law, she is a lucky one!"

   "Mother, hasn't the second brother come back yet?"

   "I received the letter yesterday, should I be on my way now?" Zhao Lanhua glanced at the sky outside the house, "It's difficult to travel at night, I guess he won't be able to come back until tomorrow morning."

   "Mother!" Just as Zhao Lanhua's voice fell, Shen Erlang had already stepped into the house, "Has my wife given birth?"

   "Here, I was born a quarter of an hour ago, and gave birth to a fat boy for you!" Zhao Lanhua greeted cheerfully.

   "Really, let me see?" Shen Erlang grinned excitedly, and rushed into the back room, but before his hand even touched the swaddle, he was slapped hard by his wife!

   Hiss!

   Shen Erlang sucked in the pain, raised his head rather puzzled, "Mother, what are you doing?"

"You are heartless, and you don't know how to visit your wife? In order to give birth to a fat boy for you, she has been in pain for two hours!" Zhao Lanhua glared at him angrily, "Still doing it in a daze What? Hurry up and see your wife!"

   "Hey, I'll go right away!"

   Watching this scene, Ji Zhao raised his lips silently;

  Her mother-in-law is the best mother-in-law in the world.

  The next day, Ji Zhao took a bath and burned incense early in the morning.

She knelt devoutly in front of the statue of the Lord of the Earth, and prayed sincerely: "The Lord of the Land is coming again, the believer girl Ji Zhao has something to ask, and the believer wants to find the Immortal Crane as soon as possible, and I hope the Lord of the Land can secretly protect the believer girl. She will be very grateful if she has achieved her wish!"

   Shen Yao, who was about to enter the house, happened to hear Ji Zhao's prayer.

  He gently raised his brows, his lowered eyes covered the emotion in his eyes.

   "A Tao?"

   "Shen Yao?" Hearing the voice, Ji Zhao quickly turned around and walked in front of him, "Why are you here?"

   "Second brother and second sister-in-law want me to name their child. I don't have any idea yet, so I want to discuss it with you." Shen Yao smiled lightly and explained the purpose of coming softly.

  Ji Zhao thought about it carefully, she remembered that in the original book, Second Wife Shen also gave birth to a fat boy, and it was Shen Yao's name for him, if she remembers correctly—

   "How about Tao?"

  What the two of them didn't expect was that they said this sentence in unison.

   "Hide your strengths and bide your time, the word tao means to hide your sharpness, low-key and introverted; the so-called Wentao Wulue, the word tao is excellent." Shen Yao analyzed with a smile, "A Tao, I didn't expect that we have a good understanding of each other?"

   "This shows that we are destined to be together in this life!" Ji Zhao suddenly took a step forward, looking up into his eyes, with curved eyebrows and eyes, delicate and cute.

   "Yes." Shen Yao nodded lightly, and nodded her nose affectionately.

  After Shen Yao's explanation, Shen Erlang and his wife naturally thought the name was excellent!

  The Shen Family Courtyard welcomes a new member, Shen Tao;

   And Zhao Lanhua also gave her precious grandson a nickname, Zhuangzhuang!

   "Look at this kid, his small arms and legs are so thick, this is really worthy of the name!" Zhao Lanhua said cheerfully, holding Zhuangzhuang reluctantly to let go.

   Soon, the Shen family ushered in Xiao Zhuangzhuang's third baptism.

   What surprised Ji Zhao the most was that Second Sister-in-law Shen actually proposed to let her carry Xiao Zhuang Zhuang to the third party. Ji Zhao was deeply suspicious of this, "Me? Second Sister-in-law, did you make a mistake?"

"That's right," Second Aunt Shen said with a smile after finishing a large bowl of chicken soup, "A Tao, I think you are the luckiest person around me! So, hold Zhuang Zhuang and wash three, It couldn't be more suitable!"

   "Besides, when I was strong, if you hadn't been with me and told me stories, I wouldn't have given birth so smoothly!" Second Aunt Shen said seriously.

   "But the second sister-in-law, I... I am not a blessed person, I don't know the identity of my biological father and mother, I..."

   "But now you have us!" Second Aunt Shen waved her hand indifferently, "Don't worry about those details! A Tao, this matter is settled like this."

  Ji Zhao returned to the house, although he was a little surprised, but more joyful.

   After all, when she first came to the world in this book, the original owner had already completely offended the two sister-in-laws of the Shen family. Thanks to her efforts to turn the tide, she exchanged her sincerity for their forgiveness.

  Now the two sister-in-laws of the Shen family have completely regarded her as their relatives, and so does she.

  In order to organize Zhuang Zhuang's three banquets, Ji Zhao asked Shen Yao to accompany her into the city and bought some needed items.

   "Shen Yao, I think we should buy a carriage?" Ji Zhao and the others rushed into the city near the end of the day. After all, the speed of the ox cart was too slow.

   "It takes a lot of silver to buy a carriage." Shen Yao pointed out the established facts soberly, "Besides, you donated two hundred taels of silver to rebuild the Earth Temple before, and now I am afraid that there is not much left."

   "Shen Yao, accompany me to a place!" Ji Zhao showed a mysterious smile, and then brought Shen Yao to a pawnshop on Qinghe Street, Dingyuan County.

   "Do you want to be something?" Seeing the banner cloth with the word "Dang" written on it, Shen Yao was extremely surprised and felt confused.

   "It's not buying things, it's buying things." Ji Zhao blinked at him, such a charming smile made Shen Yao's heart flutter.

   After walking into the **** shop, Ji Zhao directly showed the one hundred taels of silver notes, and said with great wealth, "Did the shopkeeper receive any good items recently? Show them out for us to see?"

   "Success!" Seeing the bank note, the pawnshop keeper's eyes lit up with vigour, "I wonder what the two guests want to see?"

   "Snuff bottle." Ji Zhao said straight to the point.

"Snuff bottle?" The shopkeeper of the **** shop was quite surprised, "Guest officer wants to see the snuff bottle? The old man just received a snuff bottle yesterday. Isn't it a coincidence? The enamel colored one that the old man received yesterday The snuff bottle, not only is the painting on it bright, but that snuff bottle is even more delicate and small, very pretty!"

"Shopkeeper, don't just say you don't want to practice fake moves! Why don't you quickly take out the things for us to see?" Ji Zhao said happily, "It happens that we also want to open our eyes, shopkeeper, you'd better hurry up and show the things. Take it out!"

   "Come on, you two wait a moment!"

   After waiting for a cup of tea, Ji Zhao finally saw the snuff bottle;

  Folded edges, neck girdle, shoulders, bulging belly, foot ring, gilt semi-circular engraved cover; mouth edge and bottom edge painted with gold color, abdomen painted with pictures of ladies playing with girls, vivid expressions of characters, and elegant colors of painting.

   It was exactly the same as the snuff bottle she thought of.

   "I don't know what price the shopkeeper is willing to offer?"
