The name had not been decided yet, and Gu's father had to go back to work. The night before leaving, he wrote down a name he thought was good on a piece of paper and gave it to his wife.
"Name your grandson this way. Don't worry about our father."
Mother Gu leaned under the light bulb and unfolded the note in her palm. Three names appeared on it.
Gu Lingxiao, Gu Lingchuan, Gu Lingchen.
"What do you think? This is a name I came up with after thinking hard for a long time. I hope our grandson will have lofty ambitions and the courage to embrace all things." Father Gu's words were full of boasting.
"Not very good." After saying that, Gu's mother crumpled the note in her hand into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
This name is not as good as the one she gave. Her name is the best for her grandson.
The dumbfounded Gu's father bent down without thinking and picked up the paper ball thrown in the trash can, complaining in a low voice: "How could you throw it away?"
Mother Gu gave Father Gu a cold look, and Father Gu immediately shut up.
If time permits, he really wants to wait until his grandson is named before leaving.
All Mr. Gu's coaxing and nagging throughout the night was in vain. In the morning, he kissed each of his grandchildren one by one and went back to work.
Grandpa Gu has retired and can stay here openly. When he saw that his stupid son finally left, his eyes narrowed into slits with smile.
Now, he has one less competitor.
After a fierce battle, the Gu family finally decided on a name, which was given by Grandma Gu.
The eldest is called Gu Zhiting, the second is called Gu Zhiyun, and the third is called Gu Zhiyan.
Grandpa Gu's mouth was pouted so high that an oil bottle could be hung on it. Although he was not satisfied with the result, he had to admit that the name he chose was indeed much better than his.
In fact, the most important point is that Grandpa Gu was afraid of his wife and had to bend down and surrender. He didn't want to kneel on the washboard at such an old age. If this were to get out, his reputation would be ruined.
The Shen family on the other side also decided on the name, which was given by Grandpa Shen.
The fourth child is called Shen Mingshu, the fifth child is called Shen Mingda, and the sixth child is called Shen Mingli.
Shen Yunshu, who was bad at naming, was very satisfied with the new names of his children, and Gu Jiuyan, who only had his wife in his eyes, had no objection. His wife's attitude was his attitude.
On the ninth day after the cubs were born, they finally had their own new names.
Gu Jiuyan, the father, has never held his children in his arms since they were born. He used to be jealous of others, but he finally realized that he was incompetent as a father.
Gu Jiuyan adjusted his attitude and began to learn how to hold a baby.
Grandma Gu and Mother Gu provide hands-on teaching on the spot.
One of the most common ways to hold a newborn is to place the baby's head in the crook of your left arm, then carefully protect the baby's head with the junction of the upper arm and forearm, the left wrist protecting the baby's back, and the left hand protecting the baby's waist.
Gently stretch your right hand over the baby's body to protect its legs. Of course, our right hand cannot be idle either. At this time, we should gently support the baby's waist and back.
This can better protect the spine on the baby's back.
Mother Gu looked at her son's clumsy appearance and was quite worried: "...Be careful, if you dare to accidentally drop my grandson, I will kick you out of the house."
Gu Jiuyan was speechless: "Mom, he is your grandson, but he is also my biological son. I know it well."
"I'm glad you know."
Gu Jiuyan clumsily and cautiously held little Laoliu in his arms. It was his first time holding a baby and he was so nervous that his palms were sweating and his whole body was stiff and he dared not move.
When he went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, he was not so nervous and afraid.
Shen Yunshu noticed Gu Jiuyan's discomfort and encouraged him, "Gu Jiuyan, relax. You'll get used to it once you get used to it."
Facing his wife's clear and encouraging eyes, Gu Jiuyan's uneasy heart seemed to be ironed out. After practicing more, he was able to hold the crying baby in his arms and comfort him with complete proficiency.
Suddenly, Gu Jiuyan felt something sticky on his hand. He freed his hand to look and saw a yellow, thin substance.
His big, icy face darkened instantly when he realized what was in his hand.
This brat really deserves a beating... But the moment he lowered his head and saw the smiling face of the little guy in his arms, Gu Jiuyan's expression softened a lot.
The brat isn't that... annoying.
Other people in the room also noticed that Xiao Laoliu had pooped on Gu Jiuyan, so Gu's mother quickly stepped forward to take Xiao Laoliu from Gu Jiuyan's hands and cleaned him up.
Gu Jiuyan went outside to change into clean clothes, and consciously took the basin of changed diapers and changing pads beside the bed to the well and washed them.
The little kid has to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep. After so many days, Gu Jiuyan has lost count of how many diapers and changing pads he has washed.
After cleaning up everything, Gu Jiuyan cleaned the old hen he brought back from the cafeteria, put it in the pot, and simmered it over low heat.
Liu Meiling was so annoyed by her youngest daughter Jiang Shuyao that she could not resist her pleading and took her to Gu's house with two crucian carps in her hands.
As soon as they arrived at the Gu family's door, Jiang Shuyao started making a fuss and wanted to get out of her mother's arms.
Liu Meiling thought of her little daughter's boisterous personality and habitually said something ugly upfront: "Auntie just gave birth to a baby and needs to rest. If you make a big fuss, Mom won't bring you here next time."
"...Don't make trouble, sister Piao Niang and brother..." Jiang Shuyao said in a baby voice.
"This is mommy's good baby." Liu Meiling put her down.
Jiang Shuyao ran towards the yard with her short legs. Little Tuanzi passed by Gu Jiuyan and stopped politely to say hello:
"...Hello, uncle..."
Gu Jiuyan looked at the soft and sticky little ball in front of him, his heart softened. He bent down and held Jiang Shuyao in his arms, speaking softly:
"I'll take you to the house to find your aunt, okay?"
Jiang Shuyao shook her head like a top, her lips pouted high: "...It's not Auntie...it's Sister Piao Niang..."
"It's my aunt." Gu Jiuyan corrected with a straight face. In short, there couldn't be a generation gap between him and his wife.
“…Mom…the bad uncle bullied…me…” Jiang Shuyao started crying out of grievance.
A trace of helplessness flashed across Gu Jiuyan's face as he couldn't coax a child.
"Captain Gu, this little girl has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Just leave her alone. Let her cry for a while and she'll stop." Liu Meiling said, handing over the two crucian carps in her hand: "Take this to make soup for me, and then this thing will be good."
He also took his daughter from Gu Jiuyan.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Gu Jiuyan glanced at Jiang Shuyao guiltily and ran to the kitchen at full speed.
"If you cry again, we'll go home." As soon as Liu Meiling finished speaking, Jiang Shuyao stopped crying immediately. She pointed to the snot running down her mouth:
“…Mom… rub…”
She is a clean little baby.
