"Jiang Baiyu." Looking at the name he was pointing to, Lin Wangshu slightly parted her lips and read it aloud.
It sounds nice, but I don't know what it means. Lin Wangshu couldn't help but look up and ask him, "How did you come up with this name?"
Jiang Weidong shook his head calmly and recited: "What is there in the sky? White elms are planted everywhere."
“The white elm in this poem refers to the stars. I thought to myself, if you are the moon, then our daughter is the star, isn’t she?”
As he spoke, Jiang Weidong pinched Lin Wangshu's soft cheek and said with a smile, "When the time comes, I'll be content holding Little Moon in one arm and Little Star in the other."
Seeing the smile on his face, Lin Wangshu couldn't help but tease him: "What if you have two sons? Then you won't be able to use the name you came up with."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Weidong's expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly said, "Quickly say 'Pah, pah, pah!' How can you be so unlucky? No matter what, you should have a daughter, right?"
He longed for a daughter like Lin Wangshu, who would call him "Dad" in a sweet and gentle voice.
But if it were two sons, Jiang Weidong would think of the trouble he and his older brother caused when they were kids.
Back then, the two of them were always teasing each other and causing trouble. Now that he thinks about it, he even despises himself.
If he had two sons who looked like them, Jiang Weidong felt like the sky was falling just thinking about it.
Seeing Jiang Weidong's serious expression, Lin Wangshu, urged by him, could only laugh and spit a few times.
After glancing at the names on the paper, Lin Wangshu noticed that most of them were girls' names. She couldn't help but sigh, "There are at most two girls. You've come up with so many names, but you won't be able to use them."
"Besides, you need to come up with two boy names as a backup, otherwise when the time comes, you won't be able to think of any good names."
Jiang Weidong looked at the nice-sounding names on the paper and sighed regretfully. These were good names that he had come up with after reading through many poems, but unfortunately he couldn't use them all.
Jiang Weidong closed the notebook, frowned in thought, "Then I'll flip through it again and come up with two more names for these brats."
Before he could even come up with a name, the child had already impatiently come up with one.
One day, Dehua helped Lin Wangshu take a walk downstairs, and the two chatted casually.
When talking about funny things from her childhood, Lin Wangshu couldn't help but laugh, her body trembling, but suddenly she felt a pain in her stomach, which made her hiss and frown as she gripped Dehua's arm tightly.
Dehua was startled and quickly steadied her, asking, "What's wrong? Were you laughing too hard?"
At this moment, Lin Wangshu felt waves of pain in her stomach, making her unable to speak. She could only groan and shake her head.
With his extensive experience, Dehua asked again, "How does it hurt? Does it come in waves?"
Lin Wangshu was feeling much better at this moment, and said weakly while biting her lip, "Yes, I feel a little better now."
As she was talking, she felt a warm liquid flow down her thigh.
Seeing the puddle of amniotic fluid on the ground, Dehua knew exactly what was going on. He stamped his foot and said anxiously, "My goodness, you're about to give birth!"
Lin Wangshu took a deep breath and pulled Dehua seriously, saying, "Aunt, go home first and call Weidong to inform him, then come to our room. There's a red bag in the closet; take it and come down."
"Okay, you can sit here and wait." Dehua panicked for only a moment before calming down, taking off his coat and placing it on the steps, then helping her sit down.
As soon as Dehua left, Lin Wangshu felt another wave of pain. She gritted her teeth and, following the instructions in the book, slowly adjusted her breathing to get through the pain.
After a while, Dehua came down the steps, carrying a package, taking two steps at a time. "Wangshu, just bear with it a little longer, Weidong will be here soon."
Lin Wangshu wasn't worried; the base was very close to the family compound, only about a five-minute drive away.
So she forced a reassuring smile at Dehua through her pale lips, "I'm fine, don't worry, it doesn't hurt much anymore."
Although Dehua had delivered Anjie's baby and had given birth herself, she still couldn't help but feel flustered when she saw Lin Wangshu's appearance.
After all, in her heart, Lin Wangshu was still a child, and she was always worried that something might happen to her.
"Why is Wei Dong so slow?!" Dehua felt like every minute was an eternity. Only a minute had passed, and seeing that Jiang Wei Dong was still nowhere to be seen, he couldn't help but complain to him.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the sound of a car accelerator was heard. Dehua exclaimed in surprise, "It's Weidong! He's here!"
A sharp screech of brakes rang out, and Jiang Weidong got out of the car anxiously, taking a few steps to Lin Wangshu's side. "Little Moon, I'm here, don't be afraid."
After saying that, he put his arm around her waist, picked her up, and quickly walked to the car, carefully placing her on the back seat.
Seeing Jiang Weidong return, Lin Wangshu finally felt scared. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she grabbed his sleeve, her voice trembling as she said, "Weidong, I...I'm in so much pain."
Jiang Weidong's eyes were almost overflowing with heartache. He grabbed her trembling hand and gave her a comforting kiss on the lips. "I'm with you. I'll take you to the hospital right away."
After seeing Dehua get into the car, Jiang Weidong didn't dare to delay. He squeezed her hand again, hardened his heart, and turned to the driver's seat.
Suppressing the stinging in his eyes, Jiang Weidong pursed his lips tightly, stepped on the gas, and sped towards the hospital.
Dehua, ever thoughtful, brought out peach shortbread and bread when he left home and handed them to Lin Wangshu, saying, "Eat something quickly, you won't have the strength to give birth!"
Lin Wangshu nodded, taking small bites and forcing herself to finish the whole peach shortbread.
