Chapter 53: Naming a Child Seriously and Casually
"No, Yunqi is about to produce milk. If I don't feed her, she will be blocked and she needs to be unblocked. Besides, milk powder is so expensive. It will take a long time for the baby to eat. How many cans of milk powder will she need? It's too expensive. Let Yunqi try to feed her."
Su's mother, who was outside the curtain, was anxious. The milk powder that Lu Zhao bought was a rare item brought back from the provincial capital. It was extremely expensive. Although the store they opened could make some money, the cost of buying land, building houses, and purchasing goods was too high. It was estimated that they had not yet made back their investment.
With such a sudden huge expense, they were afraid that they would not be able to afford it. It would be better to save the money to buy Yunqi some more delicious food to nourish her body. It would only be a little painful when she was breastfeeding, but it was bearable.
"Ooooooooooooooo."
I'm hungry. Dad, Mom, can you move faster?
New account, new account, don’t try it, or you’ll have to be reborn!
The kid kept crying and moved closer, wanting to try again. Children just can't stand being hungry, and when they are hungry they can't help crying.
"Okay, then Lu Zhao, hurry up."
Su Yunqi listened to her mother and had to wipe away her tears. She straightened her back and asked Lu Zhao to help her clear the way.
Lu Zhao held it in his mouth carefully. He didn't dare to use force at first, but the little brat slapped him directly on the face out of hunger.
Damn dad! If you go any faster, your son will starve to death!
Lu Zhao had no choice but to harden his heart and sucked hard a few times. Su Yunqi bit her red lips and whimpered a few times, and the milk came out.
Without waiting for Lu Zhao to go to the other side, the kid came over impatiently. He waved his little hands, pushed Lu Zhao's big head away again, climbed up himself, and occupied the source of food.
Although Lu Zhao originally wanted to get up, he still felt the strength in the boy's hands.
"Didn't you say you were hungry? You still have so much energy. I suspect you did this on purpose to torment me and your mother."
Lu Zhao patted the kid on his butt.
The little guy didn't indulge him. He kicked his legs while drinking milk, looking very aggressive, which made Su Yunqi laugh.
“It’s really not a loss.”
She burst into laughter and felt much better after the milk came out. But the kid was in a hurry to drink milk, and when Lu Zhao got close to him, his calves started kicking non-stop as if they were equipped with propellers, and when Lu Zhao got close to him, his little feet slapped him in the face.
"Let's go to the other side later."
The other side has not been sucked by the little guy yet, so it is not so swollen and painful, so I can wait for a while. But the little guy is so hungry, so just let him go.
Although she is a new mother, Su Yunqi is still very conscious of her role as a mother.
I don’t know if it’s because she has enough milk or the baby has a small appetite, but he was full after drinking just one side.
He was very smart. When he was full, he moved and turned his head away. Su Yunqi asked him to continue drinking, but he kept his mouth closed and refused to open it, which meant he was refusing to be fed.
Lu Zhao took the baby, who had eaten and drunk his fill and was beginning to feel sleepy, out and asked Su's mother to hold him, while he came in again to help Su Yunqi deliver milk from the other side.
Su's mother told Lu Zhao to suck away the other side so that Su Yunqi would not feel uncomfortable and it would not overflow.
So Lu Zhao ate the kid's rations with a red face, and Su Yunqi held his head with his face red and bleeding.
Her parents and children are still outside.
"Wipe your mouth."
Su Yunqi blushed and reminded Lu Zhao that there was still milk stain on his lips.
"Ahem, yeah."
Lu Zhao and Su Yunqi smiled at each other, their faces blushing.
They were just trying to let their milk flow out, one was in pain and the other was anxious, so they didn't think too much about it. But now they were both obviously embarrassed, and they didn't draw the curtain afterwards. Su Yunqi didn't want to look at other people, it was too embarrassing!
Su Yunqi had to stay in the hospital for a few more days and would be discharged when his body was almost recovered. The baby was growing bigger and bigger day by day and his complexion was getting whiter and whiter. Su Yunqi finally felt that the child was not ugly anymore.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought we would give birth to an ugly baby. Fortunately, we can still have the baby."
"We haven't named the baby yet, what should we name him?"
Because the child was so ugly, Lu Zhao and Su Yunqi were not in the mood to name the child and tacitly ignored the topic.
Su's father and mother were all concerned about Su Yunqi's physical condition. Everyone kept calling the child "baby" and forgot to ask about naming him. Now that Su Yunqi mentioned it, they remembered that they had not yet named the child.
"If you can't remember a full name, you can pick a nickname first. Something like Ping An An, Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan, these are all good names."
Chen Cuilan suggested cheerfully that today she made crucian carp and tofu soup, stir-fried pork, steamed shrimp, egg custard, and stir-fried loofah for Su Yunqi.
She cooked different dishes for Su Yunqi every day. Usually, she would have chicken soup one day and fish soup the next, so that she could change the taste every other day and not get tired of it. The other dishes were also very rich and all edible.
There were many kinds of food, and she had to give the leftovers to Lu Zhao to clean up when she couldn't finish them. Now Lu Zhao eats Su Yunqi's leftovers every day, but the leftovers are also rich in nutrition. Su Yunqi might need to be breastfed, so the nutritional consumption is relatively high, so Lu Zhao doesn't have to do anything. Therefore, during the seven days of Su Yunqi's confinement, he actually gained three kilograms.
"It seems like they all have the same name. There's a name called Ping'an'an in our village, and there seems to be one called Tuantuanyuanyuan as well. How about we change to one that no one else has used?"
Su's mother didn't want her child to have the same name as someone else.
Just look at the name Su Yunqi and you will know that she specially spent money to find someone who was good at reading to give her the name. You have to know what the environment was like at that time. Even scholars had to sleep in sheds. But she was still reluctant to give Su Yunqi such ugly names as Cui and Fang, so she secretly spent money to find someone to give her the name.
A name follows a person throughout his life!
"That makes sense. I don't know how to name it. I'll leave it to you. You can name it whatever you want."
Compared to Su's mother, Chen Cuilan had a much simpler way of naming her children. Only Lu Zhao's name sounded better, and it was chosen with the help of a relative. His brothers were named Lu Jun, Lu Di, and Lu Tian Lu Cao.
The main reason is that there are too many children and they are not well educated, so I couldn’t come up with any names no matter how hard I racked my brains, so I just gave them whatever I wanted.
"How about a nickname like Xiaoyao? It sounds bright and sunny, so positive and optimistic."
Su Yunqi was only half-baked at studying, so she thought hard and came up with the idea of "sunshine dazzling". But it must be said that the word "dazzling" actually has a good meaning. Lu Zhao made the decision immediately.
"Then let's call him Xiaoyao as a nickname and Lu Yaoguo as a full name. It's simple and nice."
"puff."
Su's mother is about to vomit blood.
"No, no, no, just call him Lu Yao. Calling him Jianguo has too many names. We won't do that!"
Su's mother simply couldn't stand having her grandson called this name! Although Yaoguo is very popular and authentic, it is not unique at all! As a result, her child is no longer the prettiest one in the crowd!
When you call Lu Yao, you hear that he is a handsome guy, and when you call Lu Yaoguo, you hear that he is a middle-aged man. No way!
