"When I was pregnant with your eldest brother, your father gave him many names! Although none of them were used in the end. Your generation in the Cheng family is the Min generation, and your father wrote a whole page of names for boys and girls."
Jiang's way.
"Why not? If I did, should I be called Cheng Minyue?"
Cheng Yue asked curiously.
"Actually, it was used at first. Your eldest brother was originally named Cheng Minwen. But then he became ill and his brain became unstable. So your father removed the "Min" character from his name! He also told me to keep the names simple in the future."
"When I was pregnant with Wu, the fetal movements were quite strong. Your eldest brother was ten years old at that time. Your father thought that if this naughty baby in the belly was born as a boy, he would name her Wu, and if it was a girl, he would name her Jiao."
"Originally, I was too old to have Wu. We thought we wouldn't be able to have any more children. We thought we would raise Wu well and teach him to be good to Wen. By raising Wen, we wouldn't have to worry about him even after he passed away. But when Wu was two years old, you were born."
"You were born on the 16th. Isn't it said that the moon is full on the 16th of the 15th? The day you were born was July 16th, and the weather was hot. I had an attack on the morning of the 15th, but you just wouldn't come out. It was dragged on until the 16th. I thought I was going to die."
"Who knew? You were born safely. I was a little tired, but nothing serious happened to me. Your father was beaten in the yard by your three uncles, but he was saved after hearing your cries."
"Hahaha, your father said at the time, let's call you Yue'er! Because the moon was especially round that day. Later, she liked you much more than you and your two brothers, and thought you were the treasure of our family, so she added a "Wang" to your "Yue" character. It's said that your "Yue" character has a very good meaning, like a bead used by gods, a treasure!"
"Look how casually your father named your two brothers, and how good his name is for you!"
Now the household chores are taken care of by the servants, and Ning Wazi has been taken out to play by Cheng Shun. Jiang is happy to talk about the past with Cheng Yue.
"Hahaha, I just remember that Dad was always disliked by my uncles. Mom, how did you convince my uncles to marry Dad?"
Cheng Yue covered her mouth and laughed.
"Why bother convincing your uncles? You think your grandparents can't be the head of the family! I just saw your father because he's handsome and a scholar. I also think that your uncle ran away with the money, which was really a blessing from heaven. Otherwise, with the conditions of our Jiang family at that time, how could he be a match for your father!"
Jiang said with a smile.
"Mom, you look very beautiful now, and you must have been even more beautiful when you were young. Why can't you match my dad? There are three of us siblings, and if you weren't my mother, we probably wouldn't be this tall!"
Cheng Yue said disapprovingly.
"Hehe, of course. When I was a girl, I was also the most beautiful girl in our Dalinzi Village!"
Jiang smiled and told Cheng Yue a lot of stories about her youth.
Cheng Yue listened with great interest.
The mother and daughter were still talking until Cheng Shun came back with the child for lunch.
"Shanshui isn't coming back for lunch?"
There were only four of them eating lunch together, and Cheng Shun felt a little lonely, so he asked.
"He told us not to wait. He hasn't come back yet. He must be busy with something."
Cheng Yue said.
"I don't know if this brat has found someone for you? Anyway, we won't let you go out until he finds someone!"
Cheng Shundao.
