: Round 182 Camphor tree (1)

The next day, Ji Xiaonan's servants rushed to Lishan, and Kangxi kicked him in front of An Hui without drinking any water.
He and An Hui immediately stared at each other, Ji Xiaonan thought that he was being overused, and his face was unwilling, while An Hui felt that he was making a big fuss, and his stomach was uncomfortable. The enemy started to quarrel.
But no matter how unhappy or unwilling they are, the decision is not up to them.
The most indispensable thing in this year is metamorphosis.
Therefore, the veto is invalid, and it is good to leave.
An Hui had no choice but to take Ji Xiaonan, the new assistant and bodyguard, back to the crew under the of Jing Sa.
With Ji Xiaonan's personal 'serving', Zangxuan was relieved. In order to thank Kangxi, he had to spend some time with his ears. The two of them didn't come out in the room for a long time, forcing Geng to sleep. Killing CALL made Kangxi reluctantly return to the crew.
In the next two days, calm and calm, nothing happened, and An Hui did not encounter any danger. He also nestled peacefully in Xueyuehua to raise the baby.
At the same time, Kangxi's drama was officially killed. He fled the killing feast. Under the double smoke bombs of Geng Bumei and Xiao Chen, he smoothly accompanied him to the private hospital's obstetric examination.
The test results are very good, the mother is healthy, the baby is healthier, the only thing that makes Kangxi a little bit depressed is still unable to know whether the boy in the belly is boy or girl.
However, he was already determined to be a girl, so he disregarded his disapproval after the birth inspection and just bought a bunch of baby girl supplies. When he was free, he fooled around in the room silly, and it made him sick. Soon he was brainwashed by his silly dad, and he joined the silly dad's camp without turning back.
As soon as the prospective couple was happy, even the princess bed was pre-ordered, or the kind with a floating gauze.
Well, Royal Advanced Customization, custom cycle 180 days, direct delivery to London, UK.
The two were completely immersed in the atmosphere welcoming the birth of their daughter and began to eagerly discuss the naming of their children.
There are a lot of tricks about naming children now. In order to make a good fortune, many parents will pay attention to numerology and feng shui in naming their children. Like changing fate.
Zuan Xuan is not grateful for this. The name is just a code name, so just keep it simple.
"How about Corning? What does it mean to be healthy and peaceful! It's also loud to speak."
Kangxi looked disgusted: "Not good, so ordinary."
"Where is ordinary?"
"It's just ordinary. The name of my little princess must be shocked and unique."
It is still possible to be shocked. This uniqueness may be a bit difficult. There are so many people in China. There will be several names with the same surname even for rare names.
Facing Kangxi's disagreement again, Yan Zhen was too lazy to continue arguing with him. This is already the thirteenth name. If it goes on like this, when the child is born, it may not have a name.
"Okay, you come to pick it up, whichever name you say is the best."
Facing a thick rhetoric on the table, Kangxi went through it with great effort. He didn't believe it and couldn't find a good name, but he didn't have much rest time. After the movie was killed, his next work focus was Participating in the film's publicity activities, as the protagonist, he is duty-bound, this kind of professional ethics is still required.
But the baby girl's name could not be dropped, so he took the rhetoric line, and when he was free, he found a place where no one was, and got into the ci sea, thinking of the name for his little cotton-padded jacket.
The day turned to December. At the end of the month, the snow in Lishan was flying, and the Meteorological Bureau also issued a blizzard warning. Because of the bad weather and low visibility, Lishan was once paralyzed by traffic. Nothing could be done, and the investigation of the case slowed down. .
Counting the days, Kangxi's birthday will be half a month later. Apart from nesting in Xueyuehua to support her fetus, she also thought hard about what gift to give him.
This was her first birthday to Kangxi, and it was on December 18th. It happened that the two had established a relationship for 100 days. It was of great significance. She also paid special attention to it, but she was stuck on the issue of giving gifts. .
Kangxi had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, and she was a big star. Her economic foundation was there, and she had given Father's Day gifts when she was so grown up. It was really unclear what to give him. The gift is a gift for your boyfriend.
Then be conventional, such as watches, belts, ties, cufflinks and the like, but look at the cloakroom, these things are missing in Kangxi, there are only five or six watches, and the belt, tie, cuffs are all complete, It is either a custom-made model or a limited model.
It ’s really ‘trench’ inhumane.
If he complies with his existing standards, he calculates his own deposits, and if he fails, he can only afford them with a loan.
She also thought of handmade products, such as what she did with her own hands, but there seemed to be a gap in her hands-on skills. As far as cooking is concerned, she is certainly not better than his craftsmanship.
Finally, she had to take out her major, starting from psychology, and then came to a conclusion-he stripped himself and lay a red bow on the bed, he must be happy.
Um ... she blushed, and directly blocked the idea that made people blush and heartbeat in the deepest part of her brain.
After another two days, the weather in Lishan improved, no longer dancing in the snow, and the sun finally appeared.
Jing Sa got a search permission from the Du family. When the weather was good, she immediately notified him. After a phone call, he called Xiao Chen, and Jing Sa embarked on the road to City Y again.
This time also accompanied by Cao Zhen.
The village where the Du family is located is located at the junction of cities and towns in City Y. It is neither too prosperous nor too remote, because of its geographical location, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is unique.
The tomb discovered more than forty years ago was also not far from the village. Climb up the mountain and walk for 30 minutes to see it. However, because the public facilities could not keep up, the protection of the government was not enough. The tomb has long been very depressed. No one cares about it, and only one loess pile can be seen. Even if someone comes to visit, it will be a walk and a glance.
Xiao Chen originally wanted to drive the RV directly into the village. However, the road was narrow and the car could not get in at all, so he had to give up.
He and others walked into the village on foot.
Here, like Lishan, there have been heavy snowfalls in recent days. Several main roads outside the village have been cleared by snowplows, but there are no paths to enter the village. Thick snow is paved on the road. A deep pit will make a creaking noise when walking.
Stepping on the snow over his knees, Liao asked, "How far is it?"
Jing Sa looked at the map in his hand and said, "Turn left and walk another ramp in front."
Xiao Chen also went into the village with Xu Zhen because he was not at ease. "This snow is so thick, how could there be no one to clean it? What if the person who walked fell?"
The queen of his family can't afford to fall.
Knowing that he was worried about himself, Xuming said, "The snow is so soft that it doesn't hurt to fall."
Jing Sa quipped back: "Xiao Chen, would you like to learn from the eunuchs in the court drama and put a hand to support him? Look at you nervous."
Xiao Chen really wants to take a hand out, but the key is to be willing, sometimes he really admires the queen lady of his family, other women are very clumsy in walking, but she is walking vigorously. Strong men do not lack exercise at all, and they can't keep up.
He quickened his pace, "Queen empress, go slowly."
"Don't worry like Kangxi, it's not a mountain cliff, I can move."
"No, it's right to go slower!" But he was expecting to wait and serve.
The group walked for ten minutes, and only met a few sporadic elderly people.
"Why didn't you see anyone?"
They set off early in the morning because the snow was slippery and Xiao Chen was driving slowly. It was already noon here, so no one should come out for activities at this time.
Cao Zhendao said: "The younger generation has gone out to work. Most of the people left in the village are old people and children. Usually they take care of their own one-acre three-point field. It may be due to heavy snow recently and the weather is bad. Didn't come out here. "
This is what happens in many second- and third-tier cities or small villages. There are few opportunities to make money in their hometowns. Young people go to big cities to find work. If they make money, they will send some living expenses to their hometowns. Okay, if you get out of Daming Hall, you will stay in a big city and never come back. If you do n’t get mixed, you will come back without a face.
Therefore, there are more and more empty nest elderly and left-behind children in places such as small towns and mountain villages.
There is a lack of young people in the village, only old men and children. In the cold weather, the old people and children can not stand the cold, and they must be nested at home, so it is not surprising that the outside looks deserted.
Jing Sa walked at the forefront, turned a corner, and a group of people walked forward. They walked up a hillside trail, not too steep, but the weather was cold, and they wore thick, bear-like, thick snow. , It is a bit inconvenient to walk, so I have to walk slowly.
At the end of the ramp is the Du family's house. The traditional courtyard house style is a large house in the village. The pattern is a courtyard. The house is built on all sides. It consists of a main room, east and west rooms and a inverted room. The courtyard is surrounded by the four sides. , Gray walls and green tiles, looks very simple, but because no one has lived for a long time, no one to pack up, and it has been broken after years.
There are two camphor trees in the yard that are quite eye-catching. The height and stoutness of the camphor trees are estimated to be decades old. They stand upright in the yard and can smell the unique fragrance of camphor trees.
The strange thing is that although the two camphor trees are generally tall, the branch on the left is very lush and spread like a big umbrella, but the one on the right is very thin, and I do n’t know if it is sick or not.
Xu Zhen curiously said: "It is rare to see anyone planting camphor trees at home."
Cao Zhen smiled and said: "You grew up in the United States, you may not know that planting camphor trees is a customary tradition. Generally, when a daughter is born, they plant seedlings, and when the daughter grows up, the tree also matures and waits for the daughter. When you get married, you will cut the camphor tree into a camphor wood box as a dowry. This custom is preserved in many places. It is not surprising, but it is mostly rural. After all, in a big city, where can there be such a large tree in the house. "
Xiao Chen heard and said, "We also have this custom in our hometown. Good camphor wood is valuable, and some people will pay attention to the craftsmanship when they make boxes. They will have this custom in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. If the ancestors of the family left such a box, it would be valuable now. It is definitely an antique and has a price of 100,000 to hundreds of thousands. "
He did not understand these things, and after listening to them, it was very interesting.
