"How long have you not eaten?" Mei Ya frowned as she watched him devour the food. "Aren't you afraid of hurting your stomach?"
"You haven't woken up yet. How can I eat?" Zhong Mingwei drank the last mouthful of soup, burped and said to Mei Ya, "Girl. You have been unconscious for a whole day, you scared me to death."
"One day? I slept for so long?" Meiya was stunned. She looked out the window. It was gray outside, so it should be dark before dawn. She frowned and asked, "Is today the tenth day of the lunar month?"
"Yes, it's not the tenth day of the lunar new year," Zhong Mingwei said. He wiped Meiya's sweat with a towel. He also wiped himself, "You have been sleeping since early yesterday morning. If Mr. Gu hadn't told you to just sleep, I would have woken you up a long time ago."
"Then why don't you go to the morning court?" Mei Ya paused. Suddenly, she frowned and looked at Zhong Mingwei. "If you don't go now, you will definitely be late for the morning court."
"Girl. How can you be like that? You're thinking about the morning court the moment you wake up?" Zhong Mingwei laughed dumbly, looking at Mei Ya's serious face. He hurriedly explained, "Girl, we have a son and a daughter. It is naturally a great joyous event for everyone to celebrate, so I have ordered a half-month break from court, so you don't have to worry about the morning court anymore."
"But...is this okay?" Meiya was a little worried, "Won't the court officials point fingers at us?"
"The Grand Tutor has nodded, so of course it's okay," Zhong Mingwei said hurriedly, leaning over to kiss Meiya's cheek, and then smiled and said, "Even court officials have three days off when they have a child. Why can't I, the emperor, do the same?"
"That's good," Meiya finally breathed a sigh of relief. She leaned into the man's arms and said lazily, "I really want you to stay with me for a few more days."
"Of course," Zhong Mingwei nodded hurriedly, like a chick pecking at rice. "I've thought about it. I'll bring back all the memorials I can't finish reviewing, so I don't have to stay in the imperial study and think about you all the time."
"Only thinking about me?" Meiya glared at him and pouted, "Don't you think about other things?"
"Of course I miss our Ruier and Tiantian." Zhong Mingwei laughed.
"Tiantian?" Meiya frowned and asked, "When did you name Nannan? Which Tiantian? Is it the Tian in Gantian? Or the Tian in Tianran?"
Mei Ya naturally knew the name Rui'er, but it was the first time she heard the name Tiantian. Of course, she could guess that this was the name given to the princess by Zhong Mingwei, but she didn't know it before.
"Neither, it's the Tian in Lianye and Hetiantian," Zhong Mingwei said softly, "Girl, do you like this name?"
"I don't like it," Mei Ya grumbled, "Lian Ye and Tian Tian, these names sound earthy! How can I name my daughter like this? Listen to the title that the tutor proposed for the princess, Zhen Li! This is the name I like! I don't want Tian Tian!"
"But I think Tiantian sounds pretty good, elegant and catchy," Zhong Mingwei said with a complicated expression. He paused and said hesitantly, "Besides, don't you like the song Lianye He Tiantian?"
"Then I still like to sing Little Nun, who is only 28 years old! Why don't you just name your daughter Little Nun?" Meiya was unhappy, and kept glaring at Zhong Mingwei, "Besides, your last name is Zhong! Zhong Tiantian means farming! Even farm girls don't want to be called this crappy name, okay?! Humph! I don't care! My daughter must not be called this crappy name!"
Zhong Mingwei: “…”
"Why did you insist on giving our daughter such a name?" After being so angry, Mei Ya felt a little bit sorry to see Zhong Mingwei so frustrated, but she was still unhappy. She squeezed the man's hand and asked with a hum, "Aren't you good at naming? Look how nice the name you gave me is. I thought you could definitely give our daughter a noble and refined name, but it turned out to be Tian Tian." At this point, Mei Ya couldn't help but pout and looked at Zhong Mingwei with dissatisfaction, "This is just like falling from the eyes of the clouds into the dirt with a plop. The gap is a bit too big, isn't it?"
