Chapter 202 Naming
Gu Heng didn't know why Li Yuan was crying.
The servants and maids in the second house all felt that the second lady was being a little too pretentious.
Everyone in the Marquis's Mansion attaches great importance to it, the princess is taking care of it, and the second master is also busy running around.
Mrs. Li stayed with the second wife until she gave birth, and only left after she had given birth.
When the Second Madam cried like this, others thought that someone in the Marquis' Mansion had bullied her.
Seeing Li Yuan crying like this, Gu Heng also felt that it was inappropriate.
"Wipe your tears first. The princess is outside and will be coming in soon. It's really inappropriate for you to cry like this."
Li Yuan nodded and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
Yun Qiao knew that Li Yuan had no ill intentions. She herself felt uncomfortable for a long time after giving birth. During that time, she often caused trouble with Chen Jingyan and had some wild thoughts.
During that stage, the hormone levels in pregnant women drop sharply, and some emotions are simply out of their control.
"It's normal to cry, but don't cry for too long, or you'll damage your eyes."
Yun Qiao heard Li Yuan sobbing outside. When she entered the room and saw that her eyes were very red, she said something gently.
Gu Heng spoke before Li Yuan, "I'm sorry to make the princess laugh."
"We are a family. It's very polite of you to say that, second brother."
Gu Heng nodded, and seemed to be going out to make room for Yun Qiao and Li Yuan to talk.
Yun Qiao took a look and walked inside. The maid moved a chair and took a pillow. Yun Qiao sat on the chair and talked to Li Yuan who was sitting on the bed.
There are words of concern everywhere.
When the conversation was almost over, she mentioned the old lady's intention.
"Grandma, let me tell you. This matter depends on what you two think. You decide what the child's surname will be. As for the name, I'll give you two characters: Yang."
"You can call her Yangyang. If you like, you can choose her. If not, we can give her another name."
Li Yuan frowned and said, "I don't mind. I was thinking about asking the Second Master, but then I forgot."
"However, my mother insisted on giving the child the surname Chen. I think that since he is the Second Master's child, he should have the same surname as the Second Master, Gu."
Li Yuan thought so, but her mother told her privately that the child must have the surname Chen.
"Then I'll go back and ask the Second Master what he means. However, I have an idea. Can you listen to it?"
As Yun Qiao spoke, Li Yuan looked at her eagerly.
"Sister Qiao, please tell me..."
"I thought of naming this child Chen Yang and told your mother this name, but when it comes to the Gu family tree, the surname Gu will be added, and he will be called Gu Chen Yang."
"Of course, I'm just making a suggestion. You can think about it again."
Li Yuan immediately smiled and said, "Sure, I think it's okay. We can call him Chen Yang and put him in the Gu family tree. This way, we can explain it to both the Chen and Gu families."
"Come back, close the door, and discuss this properly."
"Grandmother said she respects your wishes. Wait a few days and have Second Master take the child to see the old lady. The old lady is always thinking about this child."
The old lady doesn't like to move and now she doesn't even want to go out the door.
I used to like watching plays and my family also had a troupe of actors. Now, the troupe just tunes up their voices in the other courtyard and they haven't come to the marquis's mansion for more than half a year.
The old lady used to hold a banquet every now and then.
Whether it's a poetry recitation, camellia party, or a new song opening ceremony, they always find a reason to gather some people together to make it lively.
She wasn't trying to build any relationships, she just liked the fun.
She was happy to spend money to treat people to a meal.
Now that I’m not feeling well, I don’t have the energy to do that anymore.
She was also worried about Li Yuan giving birth and didn't want to go and see her, but she told Yun Qiao to just mention it when she came and wait a few days before bringing the baby over.
Yun Qiao then told Li Yuan about it.
After finishing speaking, Yun Qiao looked at the child. The little boy was still quite energetic and was sleeping soundly with his fists clenched.
Yun Qiao gave the child a longevity lock made of pure gold and inlaid with a ruby.
Li Yuan looked at it and said quickly, "Sister Qiao, this is too precious."
Yun Qiao smiled and said, "It's okay. I see the kids like it too. Besides, you've given the triplets plenty of things."
What Li Yuan gave was not cheap, but it was not that valuable either.
What Yunqiao gave me is probably one-of-a-kind, and you won’t be able to find a second one.
"You should have a good rest. If you need anything, please let the maid come and tell me..."
She was just thinking of asking the maid to ask when Maidong would be back.
She really devoted herself to running the restaurant. For the sake of the restaurant's business, she even learned cooking herself.
A few days ago, Yun Qiao sent someone to tell the restaurant owner that if he saw the young lady, he should let her know and ask her to return to the Marquis' Mansion as soon as possible. However, three or five days have passed, and no one has returned, and no word has been received.
When Li Yuan gave birth to a child, a full-moon banquet had to be held.
The full moon banquet is not held after the full moon, it is usually held in advance.
There is also a theory about this. It seems that some families are poor and are afraid that the mother will not have enough nutritious food to eat after giving birth, so they usually give birth in advance, and the time of birth for boys and girls is different. This is so that relatives and friends can send some food to the mother so that the mother can feed the baby well.
The wealthy families in the marquis' mansion naturally have no shortage of food and drink.
The time was calculated based on the child's birth date.
It was set twelve days after the child was born.
Hold a full moon banquet.
It takes someone to notify friends and family and prepare ingredients in advance.
Yun Qiao thought about calling Maidong back to help her.
Yun Qiao had just returned to the East Courtyard and sat down to drink a cup of tea when she saw Xiao Tao coming back from outside.
"Princess, I found her! Miss Maidong has just returned from the cook's house. She's making braised beef in the restaurant and she said she'd bring you a piece."
It is forbidden to slaughter draft cattle privately, but beef cattle can be eaten.
But it is only for the rich and powerful to eat, and ordinary people eat less of it, after all, the price is there.
The restaurant originally did not have the dish of braised beef in soy sauce, but now with this new dish, we think it will attract a lot of customers.
I have to say, Maidong is really smart.
There is a saying that goes, it is easy to conquer an empire but difficult to keep it.
It is easy to open a restaurant, but it is quite difficult to keep it well and make its business better.
On this point, Yun Qiao admired Maidong very much.
Smart, capable, smart, and able to use his brain flexibly.
"It's all good that I can come back today. I've been out for almost two months. If the Marquis knew about this, he would definitely blame me for not taking good care of her."
"Okay, prepare a hearty lunch and eat it in the East Courtyard."
"Xiao Tao, go call Doctor Zhang over. I have something to ask her."
The old lady has had a poor appetite recently, so Yunqiao accompanies her for breakfast. However, the old lady eats little for lunch and dinner. She was also afraid that Yunqiao was too busy to go, so she didn't let Yunqiao go over to accompany her.
The medicinal food that the old lady eats is all made by Zhang Rou.
Yun Qiao thought about asking.
