Chapter 56 Taking the Mother's Surname



As soon as Zhao Yi and Tian Rou entered, they were taken to Tian Rou's side.

Tian Rou seemed to be in good spirits, and smiled as soon as she saw Zhao Yi and Jiang Bai, revealing two dimples: "Sister, brother-in-law, you've come."

She stood up, and Jiang Bai quickly went over to help her. She took Jiang Bai's hand and said, "Let me show you the child."

The three people moved to the cradle.

This child is very beautiful; you can already see some signs of it.

Both Tian Rou and Jiang Cheng are good-looking, so no matter who the child resembles, he won't be ugly. Jiang Bai looked over and saw that the baby was glowing white and sleeping soundly, undisturbed by the surrounding noise.

She turned to Tian Rou and said, "The child looks like you."

Tian Rou looked down at the child, her eyes overflowing with tenderness, and said, "Thank you for your kind words, sister."

It seems they are well aware of Jiangcheng's unreliability.

Jiang Bai pulled his hand away from hers, took a jewelry box from Zhao Yi, placed it next to the baby, opened it, and said, "Your brother-in-law and I couldn't think of anything to give as a gift, so we made two sets of gold jewelry. This set is for him."

Inside are gold necklaces, gold bracelets, gold anklets, and other items specifically for children, which look very heavy.

She handed another set to Tian Rou: "This set is for you. Childbirth is very taxing on the body, you've worked so hard."

Tian Rou took it and saw that it was much richer in content than the previous set. There were two gold hairpins, as well as gold earrings, gold bracelets, and so on. The styles were novel and the value was considerable.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she said in a sob, "Sister, this is too precious, I can't accept it."

Jiang Bai took her hand back: "Take it if I give it to you, do you like it?"

"I like it." Tian Rou closed the box with one hand, nodded vigorously, and smiled shyly. "This is the first gift I've received today."

After having a child, the new mother is easily overlooked, which is why Jiang Bai prepared this as a gift.

The three of them stood silently for a while, waiting for Tian Rou to recover her mood. Then they called Tian's mother to put away the two boxes of jewelry. With people coming and going, they were afraid that the gold was too valuable and that someone might have ill intentions.

Seeing Zhao Yi looking down at the baby in the cradle, Tian Rou suddenly said, "Brother-in-law, the baby doesn't have a name yet, why don't you give him one?"

Zhao Yi was taken aback.

Actually, this is inappropriate. Not to mention that the child's parents are present, his grandparents are also alive. If Jiang Cheng hadn't married into the family, Zhao Yi, as the brother-in-law, would still have the right to speak.

Jiang Cheng is now married into the family, and the child takes Tian Rou's surname. Therefore, it is truly improper for Zhao Yi to name the child at this time.

Just before he came in, Jiang Bai's words at the door made Zhao Yi realize something. He knew that Tian Rou might have just said that to please him, so he waved his hand and said, "It's not appropriate."

Tian Rou wasn't angry when she heard this, and continued in a soft voice, "We have thought of a few names, but we haven't decided yet. Why don't you help us pick one, brother-in-law?"

She named several names: "Tian Fugui, this was given by my father; Tian Jinsheng, this was given by my brothers; Tian Wenyu, this was given by Jiang Cheng; and the last one is Tian Huaiqian."

The child's surname is indeed Tian.

Zhao Yi asked, "Is the last one what you thought of?"

Tian Rou smiled shyly: "Yes, I want him to always be humble."

“Good name.” Jiang Bai nodded. “Let’s call it this. Your brother-in-law and I both think it’s good.”

"Okay." Tian Rou's dimples reappeared.

On the way back, Zhao Yi couldn't help but ask, "Why did you choose a name for the child for Tian Rou?"

Jiang Bai didn't even glance at him; this man truly had no understanding of women's thoughts.

Zhao Yi pressed him again before Jiang Bai finally said, "Which name do you think sounds better?"

"Of course it's Huaiqian." Of these four, only Tian Rouqi's name has any real talent.

“Tian Rou didn’t want the child to be named Tian Fugui, but she couldn’t win against his father, so she simply used our names as a shield to decide on the name she wanted,” Jiang Bai explained. “We just went along with it. At most, people will say a few bad things behind our backs, but so what?”

She also didn't want her nephew to be named Tian Fugui.

Seeing that Zhao Yi had shut up, Jiang Bai closed his eyes to rest.

This person wouldn't survive an episode of a palace intrigue drama.

After attending Tian Huaiqian's full moon celebration, Jiang Bai's life returned to normal.

She sits in the milk tea shop every day, and customers like to talk to her, not to take advantage of her, but to get closer to her.

"Boss Jiang, do you know? Old Liu's wife over there has been drinking your milk tea every day for half a month, and she's pregnant."

This family is also known for their infertility. They spent a lot of money seeking medical treatment in the past two years. Last year, they started praying to gods and worshipping them. They became very superstitious. When the wife finally met her lover from another family, she poured out all her bitterness, saying that she had to drink three bowls of talisman water a day.

When Jiang Bai opened his medicinal cuisine restaurant, his family got the news late, and since they didn't have much power, they couldn't get a reservation number at all, and only managed to eat there twice.

Of course it's useless.

Later, Wang Zhongyi and his wife took over the medicinal cuisine restaurant. There were fewer customers, but the couple went there to eat every day. They ate there for half a month and spent a lot of money, but they still couldn't get pregnant.

Just as Lao Liu was about to force his wife to continue drinking the talisman water, Jiang Bai's milk tea shop opened. Now, to appease his wife, Lao Liu promised: "If you drink a bowl of talisman water, I'll buy you a cup of milk tea."

After doing this for half a month, yesterday when I drank the talisman water, I felt nauseous and dry heaved, vomiting up everything in my stomach. When the doctor came over and took a look, he immediately congratulated me.

Both of them burst into tears.

After seeing the doctor off, Old Liu's wife asked tremblingly, "Do you think it was the talisman water or the milk tea that made it work?"

"Of course it's milk tea," Old Liu answered without hesitation.

If the talisman water were truly effective, the children would be running around by now.

The guest who was talking to Jiang Bai was living next door to Lao Liu. He had heard Lao Liu talking about it in a rambling way early this morning and couldn't help but come over to share it with Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai modestly said, "It's probably because I drank milk tea, which improved my mood, and I relaxed and got pregnant."

She certainly doesn't want milk tea to be mistaken for a cure for infertility, and she's hoping to sell more to children!

The guest shook his head, disbelieving.

Seeing that Jiang Bai didn't want to admit it, he didn't press him. He just whispered, "Master Jiang, tell me this in secret, and I won't tell anyone."

Why aren't you telling anyone? Your neighbor just told you this morning, and you immediately came over to tell me.

Jiang Bai didn't reveal what he was thinking, but simply asked, "What did I tell you?"

"Tell me, are you the reincarnation of Guanyin, the Goddess of Mercy who grants children?"

The more the man looked at Jiang Bai's face, the more likely it seemed. Aren't all Guanyin statues this beautiful?

Thinking of this, he put his hands together and bowed three times to Jiang Bai.
