Zhan Ying's third child with Luo Chong was a boy, and they named him Luo Xing, signifying the prosperity of the Han Tribe and the flourishing of the Luo family. After all, this was their second son—how could the family not thrive?
The Chieftain's household was celebrating the arrival of another family member, and the whole of Hanyang City was swept up in festive joy. Quite a few people on good terms with Luo Chong sent gifts.
The prefects of the Eight Commanderies of Hanyang were the first to hear the news. However, they held official posts and could not leave the territories they governed without Luo Chong's summons. Even so, they all sent their wives or other family members to pay a visit with gifts.
Luo Chong naturally accepted them all. It was a joyous occasion, so there was no reason to refuse.
Over the next few days, a steady stream of people came to deliver gifts. Xiao Die's mother, Shang, also sent her congratulations. As the mother of the First Wife of the Han Tribe's Chieftain, she showed sufficient generosity and even specially sent some cotton cloth she had woven herself, saying it was for use as diapers.
Many people from Zhan Ying's maiden family also came to visit, especially Qu Bing's wife's family. Qu Bing's wife had originally been matched with him by Zhan Ying through someone in the tribe. Later, she had obtained the Photo Studio business from Luo Chong, and the whole family was now doing quite well. They took this opportunity to come and strengthen their ties.
Building relationships, especially clan relationships, was the root and foundation of Han Civilization. Luo Chong would not oppose it. Although he often suppressed the great clans, suppression was suppression, and not opposing something was not opposing it.
