When Xiao Lanlan saw that everyone was laughing at her, her face turned red and she felt very unconvinced.
"No, what are you laughing at? Don't these two nicknames have bad meanings? They are just baby names, so there's no need to be too particular about them. You'll still have to call them by their full names when they grow up."
"Okay, that's good. Let's call him Ping An An. My brother's name is Tuan Tuan, which doesn't sound too heroic. Ping An An An is good, and the meaning is good too!"
Zhou burst into tears quickly. She felt that her two children had been so pampered since birth, and she was already very satisfied. It would be great if they could live in peace and grow up safely.
"Yeah, I also think it's better to be peaceful and flat. The brother is called Pingping and the sister is called An'an. Let's call them that for now!" Xiao Mian advocated that the wife should follow the husband's lead.
Fortunately, her second brother and sister-in-law gave her face, and Xiao Lanlan hurried down the stairs.
The birth of a new life represents joy and hope, and now the Xiao family has something to do.
After Jiang Sui and Xiao Hechuan returned, they began to discuss what name to give the child. It had to sound nice, be easy to pronounce, look like a pair of siblings, and have a good meaning.
Xiao Hechuan let her think and express herself freely.
Jiang Sui supported her head with a pen, her eyes rolled around, and she muttered An An's nickname. Inspiration suddenly came to her.
So she wrote two names on the paper.
A timely banquet, a timely occasion!
"Husband, come and take a look at these two names." After Jiang Sui finished writing, she looked at Xiao Hechuan with the same look of anticipation.
Xiao Hechuan picked up the paper, looked at the two names written neatly on it, raised the corners of his lips, and said:
"The sea is peaceful and the river is clear, and the times are harmonious?"
"Exactly!" Jiang Sui thought, you really understand what I want to express.
But, did she forget that she should hide her incompetence in front of him? It seems that she has forgotten her own personality again.
Xiao Hechuan raised his eyebrows, and at the same time he was thinking in his heart that his family was full of literary talent. Most people would not be able to think of these two names, especially the deep meaning behind them.
"Great! Let's use these two names. My second brother and his wife will definitely like them."
Jiang Sui received the affirmation from the future Prime Minister, and his expression became proud, as if he was waiting for praise, and there seemed to be a few words written on his face:
“Am I awesome?”
"Sui Sui is really amazing!" Xiao Hechuan praised generously.
But as soon as he said this, Jiang Sui's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, are you afraid that you are the worm in my stomach?
Ever since she fell in love with him, she seemed to have gotten used to being open and honest in front of him, always unintentionally showing off her talents.
He understood it all in his heart, he knew everything and had some guesses, but he was unwilling to ask actively. He liked the endless surprises and amazement she brought him!
The two of them immediately took the two names to report. Xiao Mian and his wife did not expect that these two people were so efficient.
Jiang Sui told them that from now on the brother would be called Xiao Shiyan and the sister would be called Xiao Shiyi.
The sea is peaceful and the river is clear, may the times be peaceful and prosperous!
Xiao Mian and his wife didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but just hearing the two names made them feel good. They were nice to hear and easy to pronounce. Most importantly, as soon as they heard them, they made people feel that the brother and sister must be from a scholarly family and the people in their family must be very cultured.
How can one describe the word "elegant"?
May the world be peaceful and everything go well. What a great and beautiful wish!
After getting the names, Xiao's father took the two names to the government office to register the two children's household registration documents.
Regarding the question of whether to hold a full-month banquet or a hundred-day banquet for the two children, the final result was to hold a hundred-day banquet.
Because the 18th of the twelfth month is Uncle San's big wedding, if they hold a full-moon banquet, the interval between the two events will be too short. Firstly, they will be too busy to handle it, and secondly, they don't have a sense of quality, and there are still relatives and friends who keep coming to their house to show their favors, right?
So let’s hold a hundred-day banquet, which will be after the New Year.
Jiang Sui was asked by Xiao's mother to hire a wet nurse for Zhou. Since she was the first child, her milk was only enough for one child, so it would be impossible not to hire a wet nurse.
The only big event for the Xiao family now is Xiao Yi’s wedding next month, and both families are making intensive preparations.
After discussing the issue of the bride price, the Liang family said that they should just give a random amount as long as it would save face for both families. On the farm, no one would hold a particularly grand wedding ceremony for a daughter or daughter, and they were not a wealthy family. Marrying a man would provide clothes and food, and they should do what they can, and there was no need to pretend to be rich.
Xiao's mother prepared a betrothal gift of 88 taels of silver, which was a very large number for the farm. It was said that the daughter of a family on the farm married the richest family in the flower farm, but they only gave a betrothal gift of 66 taels of silver. This was talked about for a long time.
It is not known how much dowry the Liang family has prepared. Anyway, Xiao's mother doesn't care about the money. It all belongs to the young couple. Originally, marriage is about two big families helping a small family!
…
Xiao's mother has to take care of Zhou's food and drink at home every day. Jiang Sui is in charge of the store. After the new products are launched, customers come in an endless stream. Moreover, this clay pot noodles is more troublesome to produce as there are more ingredients in it. She is also researching desserts such as double skin milk and ginger milk.
When the time comes, I can set up a small dessert station, which will be another source of income.
Nowadays, all the noodle shops in the two snack streets of West Street and North Street are almost ruined by Xiao Ji. All the business has been taken away by them. They want to learn from them but cannot grasp the essence of the business. They can only make ends meet every day.
Jiang Sui has achieved her dream of taking over the West Street and North Street snack streets.
Next year, she will open a shop on South Street and take over the entire market of Jeju City.
I thought my peaceful life would always be peaceful, but there would always be some unexpected incidents in the middle.
On this day, Jiang Sui was counting his accounts when suddenly a female beggar with ragged clothes and disheveled hair came to the door. Winter was almost approaching and the wind blowing on the face was already very cold, so people had already put on thick clothes.
This female beggar was leaning on a crutch and didn't even have a pair of shoes. Her feet were covered with wounds and were red from the cold. She came to Xiao Ji to beg for food pitifully. She stared at the pancake and dumpling stall at the door and kept swallowing her saliva.
There were a few beggars who came to beg at Xiaoji every day. Jiang Sui had instructed his subordinates that if they saw any beggars, they should be given a pancake and a bowl of water to send them away, which could be considered as doing good deeds.
Many beggars saw that Xiao Ji had food, so they came to ask for food on a regular basis every day. However, Xiao Ji was not stupid. He only gave pancakes to the elderly, the weak, women and children. He did not give pancakes to those young people who had hands and feet but still had to beg on the streets.
The waiter saw the old beggar, who must be over fifty years old, so he followed the rules set by the boss and gave her a pancake and a bowl of hot water:
"Old man, you must be hungry. Take it to the side and eat. We still have business to do. When you finish drinking the water, just put the bowl on the steps. I will collect it later!"
