"Wife, let me explain!" He threw down the towel in his hand, knelt down, and grabbed Tang Shu's leg.
Tang Shu gave a half-smile.
"Oh?" She adjusted her posture, crossed her legs, leaned back with her hands supporting her weight, and glanced at Gu Jin with a faint smile in her eyes, her tone indifferent: "Go on, I'm listening."
Gu Jin immediately coughed.
What to do? What to do now?
"I didn't mean to keep the truth from you. I was just afraid that if I told you, others would find out. If Ning Jingqiu found out that this was a setup, not only would all of Qin Zheng and my efforts be wasted, but Ning Jingqiu would definitely try to bribe her, and Qin Zheng and I might really be killed!" He said pitifully, "Wife, you don't want to really become a widow, do you?"
Tang Shu smiled again, "How have I been living like a widow these past few days?"
This...this...
Gu Jin panicked.
"But your man is back!" He quickly came up with a plan, grabbing Tang Shu's foot and cradling it against his chest, smiling ingratiatingly, "Wife, I just want us to have a peaceful future..."
Tang Shu chuckled.
Gu Jin chuckled along.
Tang Shu stopped smiling and beckoned to him with one hand, "Come here."
Gu Jin immediately stood up and snuggled up to her face like a lapdog, "Wife, what do you want to say?"
Tang Shu stared at his face for a moment.
Just as Gu Jin thought Tang Shu was about to pinch his face, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his lower back and abdomen, causing him to involuntarily gasp.
That's the spirit, it's fucking awesome!
...
Ye Yun gave birth to a son, and because he was born on the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Zheng wanted to name his son Qin Shiba (meaning "Qin the Eighteenth").
What a fine Qin Shiba!
Ye Yun was so angry she wanted to punch him.
Qin Zheng said, "It's good enough that a brat has a name. What kind of nice name do you expect?"
It's his good fortune to be able to be named after his sister.
Hey, this made Ye Yun laugh in exasperation.
Other families name their boys with grand and impressive names, but for him, a simple name is enough.
Qin Zheng then said, "Qin Ye."
"What?"
"Qin Yezhi is a good friend," Qin Zheng said, his expression very serious.
Ye Yun's eye twitched.
“I understand.” Gu Jin raised her hand and interjected, “Your surname is Ye, and Qin Zheng’s surname is Qin. This kid is playing romantic with you.”
Ye Yun: "..."
Gu Jin then added, "Tang Shu, let's name our child Gu Tang from now on!"
Tang Shu raised her hand and gave him a flick on the forehead.
Listen to it yourself, do you think it sounds good?
Alright, Gu Jin covered his head and behaved himself.
Qin Zheng clicked his tongue, giving Gu Jin a look of sympathy but not pity and a sense of righteous indignation, before turning to Ye Yun and asking, "Wife, what do you think?"
Ye Yun was bewildered, "What do you mean, how?"
"name."
"Not very good!"
"Actually, it has another meaning."
What does it mean?
Qin Zheng leaned closer to her, repeating with a serious expression, "Are you ye or not? Are you ye or not?"
"..."
Not at all, not quite.
Ye Yun raised her hand and gave him a flick on the forehead.
"Phonetic pun, deduct money!"
Mu Jingsheng, standing next to him, was frantically flipping through the dictionary. Compared to Qin Zheng and Gu Jin, who were both unreliable, the older generation Mu Jingsheng took the matter of naming their children very seriously.
Mu Jingsheng didn't name Xiao Chuqi back then, and he deeply regrets it.
Mu Jingsheng always felt that the name Xiao Chuqi was too casual, and he gave Qin Zheng a good scolding. Later, when he learned that Ye Yun had chosen the name Xiao Chuqi, he immediately gave a thumbs up: "Good, well chosen!"
But he absolutely cannot let them name this little guy however they want anymore.
Perhaps he was taking it too seriously, which made Mu Jingsheng feel that no matter which character he looked at, he couldn't stand it and that it was not worthy of his beloved grandson.
Gu Jin muttered to herself.
"Gu Tang, Gu Tang, Gu Tang bone broth..."
Uh, I'm a little hungry.
Tang Shu slapped his face in annoyance, "What are you muttering about?"
Gu Jin immediately stopped muttering.
Tang Shu reached out and smacked him across the face again without any mercy. "Why aren't you muttering anymore?"
Gu Jin: "..."
Pregnant women are not to be trifled with. Let's just kill him and add some excitement!
"Qin Ye, Qin Ye... I've got it!"
Suddenly, he sprang to his feet, his eyes sparkling, and exclaimed, "Qin Yue!"
Qin Yue?
It took everyone a moment to react.
With a loud bang, Mu Jingsheng slammed his hand on the coffee table and exclaimed, "The character 'Yue' is wonderful! Yue means to surpass, to go beyond, it's a word that represents continuous progress! It's also the name of the Zhou Dynasty, which happens to be my hometown, so it's like tracing my ancestry on another level. Excellent, this character is wonderful!"
"Xiaoyun, what do you think?"
He didn't forget to seek Ye Yun's opinion, after all, Ye Yun was the one most qualified to decide on the name.
However, he really liked the name.
Yue, the Ming state during the Zhou Dynasty, whose territory extends to the present day, is exactly where Yue's ancestral home is.
He always felt indebted to Ye Yun and always wanted to establish an indelible relationship with her.
Unfortunately, time cannot be turned back.
If the little guy can use this word, this word that can represent him, does that mean he has established an indelible relationship with him?
Does Ye Yun think of her father every time she calls the little guy's name?
Looking at the expectant light shining in Mu Jingsheng's eyes, Ye Yun pursed her lips slightly and nodded gently, "This name sounds very nice."
Mu Jingsheng's eyes lit up. "You agree?"
