Chapter 257 Naming the Daughter
Yun Xiangye smiled softly after hearing what Gu Yan said, "Nuonuo is not so greedy. She will be extremely happy if you come back."
Gu Yan hooked Yun Xiangye's hair and said, "That's right. I'll think of a way to make her some candied haws to appease her later. Nuonuo is really the most food-loving child I've ever seen."
Yun Xiangye smiled faintly and said, "Nuonuo likes to eat, isn't that just like you? When you were a child, you loved to eat more than Nuonuo."
Gu Yan said: "Why do you follow me? When I was a child, I didn't like eating as much as Nuonuo."
Yun Xiangye raised an eyebrow and looked at Gu Yan and said, "Then why did you follow that little sister just for a bunch of candied haws? Are you going to be her brother?"
Gu Yan said: "How could I do such a thing?"
Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "My mother said so."
Gu Yan said: "My mother is just making it up. How could I just follow someone else just for a string of candied haws?"
Yun Xiangye said: "Mother is not making this up, have you really forgotten about this?"
Gu Yan said: "It's not that I forgot, but there is no way I would follow some young lady just for a string of candied haws."
Seeing that Gu Yan did not admit it, Yun Xiangye said with a little disappointment: "So you forgot about it."
Gu Yan asked, "What's wrong?"
Yun Xiangye shook her head and said, "Nothing, I just feel a little sorry that you forgot the day we first met."
Gu Yan said: "What do you mean? Didn't we first meet on the day we were boating on the lake?"
Yun Xiangye took the rattle next to the pillow and asked, "Do you still remember this rattle?"
Gu Yan said: "I remember, I had it when I was a child. You said this rattle is yours..."
Gu Yan paused, stared into Yun Xiangye's eyes, and slowly said, "So you are the young lady who tricked me away with the candied haws?"
Yun Xiangye chuckled, "Do you remember?"
Gu Yan shook his head and said, "I was too young at that time, I really can't remember this incident, but no wonder you looked familiar to me when I saw you while boating on the lake..."
Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "I was too young at that time. When I woke up, I found that the little brother I brought back was gone. I didn't even notice that you took my rattle away."
Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's hand and turned the rattle with her, then he kissed Yun Xiangye's red lips again.
Unexpectedly, he and Yun Xiangye already had such a bond. Fortunately, he did not lose Yun Xiangye.
Gu Yan hugged Yun Xiangye tightly, "So we have slept in the same bed since we were little?"
Yun Xiangye whispered, "Yeah."
Gu Yan smiled and said, "So we are destined to be husband and wife. In such a huge city like Yongxing, we can meet each other again and again. What a fate..."
Yun Xiangye said: "Even if we are destined to be husband and wife, if you dare to betray me one day..."
Gu Yan said: "How dare I betray you? I am so terrible, I will not coax you again."
Seeing Gu Yan's appearance, Yun Xiangye smiled gently and took the initiative to hug Gu Yan's neck.
At noon, Yun Xiangye and Gu Yancai got up and went to the bath. After bathing, washing and dressing, it was already afternoon.
Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye first went to the next room to pick up the two children, and then went to Madam Gu's courtyard to visit her.
When Madam Gu heard the news that Gu Yan had returned, she hurriedly stood up and walked to the door to greet Gu Yan and said, "Yan'er, you are finally back. Grandmother has been very worried for a while."
Gu Yan knelt down holding Shun'er in his arms and said, "My grandson is unfilial and has made my grandmother worried."
Madam Gu smiled and helped Gu Yan up, saying, "Hurry up, hurry up. You've been away fighting, and it's not easy for Xiangye to be pregnant with two children. You must not let Xiangye down in the future and be as irresponsible as before."
Gu Yan smiled and said, "Grandma, I will certainly not let Xiangye down."
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes and smiled at Gu Yan.
Madam Gu looked at Shun'er in Gu Yan's arms and said, "This child looks like you when you were a child."
Madam Gu took Xinxin from Yun Xiangye's arms and said, "Now that you are back, it's time to give your little daughter a name."
Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "You should still come up with the name. Whether it's Yun or Gu, you decide..."
Yun Xiangye glanced at Madam Gu and smiled faintly, "It's enough for Nuonuo to have the surname Yun. Xinxin and Shunshun are brother and sister, so it's not appropriate to have two surnames. I named Nuonuo, and you can name Xinxin."
When Shun Shun and Xin Xin were born, not only did Xie Zhixuan give 30,000 taels of silver, but Mrs. Gu also took out two pairs of small gold bracelets and small gold locks, and gave the farm to the two children.
There was no need for Yun Xiangye to just cling to the Yun family's surname.
Gu Yan gave his son to Yun Xiangye and took Xinxin from Madam Gu. He looked at Xinxin's face, which resembled Yun Xiangye, and said with a faint smile, "Let's call her Gu Yunnian. When she was born, you and I missed each other. She is also Nuonuo's beloved sister."
Yun Xiangye smiled softly and touched her little daughter's face and said, "Xinxin, your name will be Yunnian from now on."
Madam Gu said, "The name Yunnian is inappropriate. It clashes with Wei Xi's name. You should change it. Nuonuo is called Yunran. There were many rumors outside that the name Ran was given because of Fu Anran."
Gu Yan listened to Madam Gu's words and explained to Yun Xiangye: "I can swear to death that I named Xinxin Nian. I never thought of Wei Xi. If I had thought of it, I would definitely not name her like this. I just thought of Xinxin Nian Nian."
Yun Xiangye heard Gu Yan was afraid that he would misunderstand her, so she couldn't help but smile and said, "Gu Yan, I'm not as petty as you think."
Yun Xiangye then said to Madam Gu, "Grandmother, Wei Xi was given poisoned wine and died. It is not necessarily a bad idea to use the same pronunciation but different characters. Nuonuo is called Yunran and Xinxin is called Yunnian. These two sisters' names match well. I think Yunnian sounds pretty good."
Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "I'm glad you have no objection."
"Madam Gu, Madam Wei wants to see you."
When Gu Yan heard the rumors from outside, he took Yun Xiangye to the inner room.
Yun Xiangye was not very familiar with Madam Wei, having only met her once or twice. It seemed that the Queen's biological mother did not come out often either.
Madam Gu went outside to support Madam Wei and said, "Sister-in-law, if there is anything, just ask the maid to tell her. You are not in good health, so you don't have to come in person."
Madam Wei burst into tears and said, "Sister, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling to leave Zhan'er with even one last bloodline."
Madam Gu said, "According to reason, Wei Qian should have been given poisoned wine and died last year. His Highness gave Wei Qian a chance out of your kindness, allowing his concubine to leave a bloodline for him. It has been almost a year, and Wei Qian cannot let his concubine get pregnant. He cannot spare her life by showing mercy."
Madam Wei said, "Wei Qian has already known that he was wrong. Sister, this is the only blood of your brother and your nephew. Can you bear to see your brother's bloodline cut off here? The Queen doesn't listen to me, her biological mother. You are her aunt, and she listens to you. The Queen has spoken, and Qian'er's life will definitely be saved."
Madam Gu sighed and said, "The Queen is also my brother's daughter, and the Crown Prince is your and my brother's grandson. However, Wei Qian and Wei Xi are determined to kill the little grandson. The bloodline of the Wei family is killing each other. I really can't go and plead for mercy anymore."
