Han Yunqi was still casually telling her about the funny things his brothers did when they were little. Children's happiness is always very simple. The Han family's tradition of family reunion on the first day of the Lunar New Year has continued for many years. When Han Yunqi was little, this day was the happiest day of the year because he had four cousins of similar age to play with him. No matter what the relationship between the adults was like, the innocent children still liked to play with their peers.
Moreover, all five of them are mischievous boys, and when they get together, they're more likely to tear the roof off.
However, I don't know when it started, but the brothers started talking less and less when they met, and they became more and more polite and distant.
Even when joking, they can only talk about trivial things and dare not go into deeper conversations.
As he spoke, Han Yunqi's voice became somewhat low.
Tang Xiaoxiao understood his thoughts perfectly; she had so many memories from her past life. Han Yunqi was very sentimental, and he found it ironic that his blood relatives had fallen to this point, which made him even more averse to these superficial annual gatherings.
However, Tang Xiaoxiao didn't feel there was any need to maintain relationships with his cousins; things were fine as they were.
Children are like blank slates, pure and lovely, but even the most beautiful childhood memories are ultimately just memories; everyone changes as they grow up.
In his previous life, when Han Shiping had an accident, the elders of the Han family and several of Han Shiping's sworn brothers were busy for several days helping to deal with the aftermath of the car accident. However, Han Yunqi's cousins of this generation did not even show their faces. Instead, several of Han Yunqi's childhood friends and classmates put aside their work and business to come and stay by his side to encourage and comfort him.
Only after the police allowed the family to take the body back for burial did the cousins attend the funeral and offer incense, going through the motions like other less close relatives and friends.
Not to mention that they haven't been back to see their grandmother even once since Grandpa Han passed away.
Instead of wasting time and effort trying to build a good relationship with these distant blood brothers, he should focus his energy on his childhood friends.
However, these were all things from his past life, and Han Yunqi knew nothing about them now. Tang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but changed the subject, touching her belly and saying, "I wonder when these two little ones are going to come out. This belly is really too inconvenient."
Sure enough, these words immediately diverted Han Yunqi's attention, and he began to discuss the name of their future child with Tang Xiaoxiao.
The Han family has a genealogy, and the next generation should have the character "Hao". Although the whole family is hoping for a little girl, according to the Han family tradition, girls cannot be named according to the character order in the genealogy.
Tang Xiaoxiao was speechless at this blatant discrimination.
Feudal dregs.
However, since it was a rule passed down from the Han family since ancient times and it wasn't directed at any particular person, she didn't say anything, because it wasn't worth making a big fuss over such a small matter.
According to Han Yunqi, when he was a child, only the men in the Han family could eat at the table; the women and children had to hide in the kitchen to eat.
As society became more open-minded and women's status rose, this rule in the Han family gradually disappeared.
Her twins, a boy and a girl, will definitely be named "Han Hao X", while the girl will be named whatever she wants.
She also felt that the character "皓" was not suitable for a little girl, and it would be difficult if her daughter's name insisted on having it.
