"Grandpa Du, what brings you here?"
Xia Lan greeted Du Wenqing with a smile. Du Wenqing looked at her and saw that she looked so energetic that she didn't look like a woman who had just given birth.
"Looking at you, I can't tell at all that you're a new mother..."
Du Wenqing walked over with a smile, and Qin Yu stood up and gave his seat to Du Wenqing.
Du Wenqing sat down by Xia Lan's bedside, looking at the two sleeping children in her arms.
"This...this is so..."
Du Wenqing was about to say that the child was being raised well, but after seeing the smaller child next to him, he swallowed the words back.
"This little guy was squeezed into a corner by his sister, which was a pleasant surprise."
Xia Lan smiled easily at Du Wenqing.
She hadn't forgotten that the most famous policy of this era was family planning, which was apparently established as a national policy this year and will be gradually strengthened and implemented.
She had heard from older people that back then, if you were discovered, even if you wanted to pay the fine voluntarily, you might not be able to save your life. Some women were even nine months pregnant and would be forcibly taken to the hospital to have an abortion.
She's finally free of worries now, with a son and a daughter; she managed to have twins in one pregnancy.
"No, that's not it! You need to take good care of yourself!"
Du Wenqing smiled and nodded.
He took a red envelope from his pocket and placed it in Xia Lan's hand.
"Grandpa Du?"
"master?"
Xia Lan and Qin Yu looked at Du Wenqing.
"Don't look at me. This is a gift from my great-grandfather to the two little ones. It has nothing to do with you! Don't glare at me!"
Du Wenqing pointed confidently at the two adorable little ones in Xia Lan's arms and said.
He used this reason, and they had no right to refuse.
"..."
There's really no way to refuse.
Qin Yu and Xia Lan exchanged a helpless glance.
"Alright, alright, you're great-grandfather! You're the boss, you get to decide!" Xia Lan let him have his way seeing how happy he was.
Upon hearing Xia Lan personally acknowledge that he was her great-grandfather, a bright smile spread across Du Wenqing's face.
"Do you want a hug?" Xia Lan asked with a smile, seeing that he wanted to touch her but was too afraid.
"...No, please! I'm afraid I'll fall."
Du Wenqing whispered.
I really want to, but I'm also afraid of getting involved.
"bring it on!"
Xia Lan saw the longing in his eyes and gestured for Qin Yu to pick up his eldest daughter and give her to him.
Qin Yu carefully picked up his eldest daughter and stiffly placed her in Du Wenqing's arms.
Du Wenqing looked at Qin Yu's awkward expression and gave him a funny look.
Suddenly, the little girl opened her eyes and looked like she was about to cry. Qin Yu panicked.
Du Wenqing smiled and glanced at Qin Yu, then got up and skillfully took the child from Qin Yu's arms, letting her lie comfortably in his embrace and gently rocking her.
The little girl was about to cry, but Du Wenqing's actions actually made her stop crying obediently.
Its big eyes darted around before settling on Du Wenqing's face.
She revealed a sweet and lovely smile.
"bang~"
Du Wenqing was immediately captivated by her smile.
"Little cutie, you're smiling at your great-grandfather!"
Du Wenqing smiled happily at the little girl.
"It seems the child is destined for you."
Xia Lan found this scene quite strange.
However, she had heard that if a child smiles at someone, it means that the child is destined to be with that person.
Have you chosen a name for the baby yet?
Du Wenqing looked at Xia Lan, and Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu.
"My parents have already chosen my formal name, but I haven't decided on a nickname yet..."
Qin Yu touched his nose. He had thought of many names, but Xia Lan was not satisfied with any of them.
He didn't dare tell the truth!
Seeing Qin Yu's expression, Du Wenqing chuckled, roughly understanding what was going on.
In the village, they all had lowly names, such as Gou Dan (Dog Egg), Hu (Tiger), Niu (Ox), Lv (Donkey), all of which were based on animals like dogs, horses, cows, sheep, pigs, cats, and rabbits.
Otherwise, it's all about wanting to have a son for the family. Girls are called things like "Zhao Di" (招弟), "Pan Di" (盼弟), "Yin Di" (引弟), "Lai Di" (来弟)...
Or it could be something like small flowers or grass.
How about a complete reunion?
Du Wenqing, holding the child, asked with a smile.
"The one in my arms is called Tuantuan, and the younger brother is called Yuanyuan."
Xia Lan's eyes lit up.
"Tuantuan Yuanyuan, what a wonderful name!"
Seeing that Xia Lan liked it, Qin Yu immediately nodded.
"Then let's call it 'Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan' (meaning 'Reunion')."
I absolutely won't object; just listen to your wife.
After deciding on a name, Xia Lan smiled as she looked at her son in her arms.
"From now on, your name will be Yuanyuan. Grow up quickly and catch up with your sister!"
As if in response to Xia Lan, Yuan Yuan gently grasped Xia Lan's fingers.
Du Wenqing held the child for a while, then had to rush back to work. Reluctantly, she put the child back in Xia Lan's arms and left, turning back to look at him every few steps.
When Xiao Yuqin and Qin Jun returned, they brought Xia Lan a lot of food.
"Lanlan, your dad and I asked the doctor, and they said we shouldn't give you anything too oily. So I prepared some vegetable porridge for you, and I also added some minced meat and small shrimp. Would you like to try it?"
"I know you like vegetables, so I specially stir-fried some vegetables."
Xiao Yuqin took out all the dishes and placed them in front of Xia Lan.
Looking at the dishes that were almost overflowing, Xia Lan smiled at Xiao Yuqin.
"Thank you, Mom!"
"Oh, you silly girl, why are you being so polite? It's what I should do!"
"You hurry up and eat! I'll hold the baby for you!"
Xiao Yuqin happily took the child from Xia Lan's hands.
"By the way, Mom and Dad, Grandpa Du just came over and gave the two kids nicknames! The older sister is called Tuantuan, and the younger brother is called Yuanyuan. I think they're great, what do you think?"
Xia Lan ate while laughing.
"Great! This name is wonderful! It perfectly embodies the idea of reunion!"
Xiao Yuqin and Qin Jun exchanged a glance, then looked at Qin Yu. The name was perfect.
The family is finally reunited, a perfect reunion.
The nickname was settled happily, but Qin Jun was troubled by his formal name.
When he found out they were twins, he felt that the names he had prepared beforehand were no longer suitable.
Twins should have names that complement each other, and Qin Jun racked his brains but couldn't come up with any good names.
"Dad, there's no rush for their name. We can decide when they register their household registration!"
Xia Lan smiled at Qin Jun.
"good."
Qin Jun nodded, determined to come up with good names for his two darlings!
"Oh dear! How could it be a girl! Didn't I say it would be a son? What kind of lousy master is this? He actually cheated me out of my money. I'll tear him apart when I get back!"
The old woman's sharp and sarcastic voice rang out from outside the door. Xia Lan and the others looked up and saw the woman who had just been beside her being pushed into the delivery room.
The old woman behind me walked along, cursing and swearing, cursing the new mother, the charlatan, and the child.
The baby was a girl, and the disgust on his face clearly showed that he didn't like the girl.
The man behind her, holding his daughter, glanced at his mother but didn't dare to speak up for his wife.
He carefully carried his daughter back to his wife's side.
