"If a man keeps women guessing, they will love him more, right?"

"Hey, who told you this?"

"That's what Engineer Li said."

Ji Ling: "Does Mr. Li say this every day at work?"

"Well, I used to think these things were boring, but after I got married, I listened to them again and found them very beneficial."

Ji Ling: "You are really studious."

Zhu Weidong said, "I really loved studying since I was young."

Ji Ling: This man can't even understand sarcasm. Was that smart guy just now really him?

Husband and wife spend very little time together, from getting married to having children, and now they spend the most time together.

Zhu Weidong took a seven-day leave, but he couldn't stay too long, as he had to go back tomorrow.

The Zhu family didn’t think much of it before, but now that they see people are leaving, they are a little worried that Ji Ling will get angry.

If a woman gets hot during confinement after childbirth, it is bad for her health. She may get sick during the period and will be prone to having no milk or water.

Old Mrs. Zhu has always been a broad-minded person, and this time she couldn't help but talk about this matter with her husband.

"At first I always told him to choose a job he likes. Now he's an engineer, which sounds good and his job is respected, but the fact that he's not at home all the time is a problem."

"Xiaoling hasn't graduated yet. When she graduates, she will be assigned to the General Administration of Railways to work there. It would be nice if the couple can be transferred to work together as much as possible." Grandpa Zhu has already made all the arrangements.

But that day hasn't come yet, and he doesn't like to make it public.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu felt relieved and said, "Then let's just hold on for a few more years."

Kong Siya has begun to slowly counsel Ji Ling, "Weidong is indeed a bit busy here. The company can now give you seven days off, which is a lot. When you are out of confinement, let Niuniu drink milk powder first, and you can go to the southwest to see him."

"Mom, I'm fine, you don't have to worry. I know he is busy." Ji Ling understood Zhu Weidong.

Kong Siya was comforted, "It's good that you can think it through and not feel bad. At any time, no matter what happens, it's not as important as yourself. Do you hear me?"

Ji Ling smiled and said she understood.

At this time, Zhu Weidong was talking to his father in the study downstairs.

"Your wife's family hasn't come yet. Xiaoling will be out of confinement in a week. Has she said anything to you in private? You should persuade her more and let her relax. Maybe something happened over there and delayed her." Zhu Chuang respected his daughter-in-law and didn't say anything unpleasant when talking about the Ji family.

Zhu Weidong said, "I haven't asked Xiaoling, and she hasn't mentioned it either. You and my mother can rest assured about this. She is open-minded and can see clearly."

Zhu Chuang nodded, "Just keep in mind that we have to go back tomorrow, so you should go back and spend some time with your wife."

Zhu Weidong stood still. Zhu Chuang looked at his son in confusion, "Anything else?"

"Have you decided on Niuniu's name?"

Zhu Chuang said, "Your grandfather hasn't made up his mind yet. I'll call you when he decides."

Zhu Weidong: "The Guoxiang I married is pretty good."

"Vague." Zhu Chuang rejected it outright.

"Yufang and Jinzhi are more vulgar." Zhu Weidong did not give in. "I am the father of the child. Zhu Guoxiang is a nice name."

"Xiaoling is still the child's mother. She will decide the child's name. You can go back." Zhu Chuang's face turned fierce and he didn't talk much to his son.

For seven days, Zhu Weidong discussed the child's name with his grandfather and father every day, but always came back disappointed.

Ji Ling saw Zhu Weidong coming back and guessed, "Has the name not been decided yet?"

"Dad said it's up to you to decide."

Ji Ling smiled and said, "Let me decide. That's fine."

"Yes, when the baby was in my belly, I thought of many names. Ximei? Kewa? Xia Ning?"

Nowadays, most names given to children are related to national construction, or to poetry if they come from a scholarly family. Zhu Weidong thought about the names given by Ji Ling for a while, but had no idea what they were related to.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ji Ling asked, "Which one do you think sounds better?"

Zhu Weidong wanted to say that none of them were good, but looking at his wife's expectant face, he opened his mouth and said, "But the baby is fine."

"Zhu Kewa, then let's call her Kewa." Ji Ling had actually been waiting for this opportunity.

My daughter is the treasure of the whole family. The elders have the final say on her name, so it is not up to her to decide.

Now that the opportunity has come, how could she not seize it?

"Then go talk to Dad."

Zhu Weidong looked at his wife: There's nothing wrong with her, but something seems to be wrong.

When he went downstairs and knocked on the door of the study, Zhu Chuang saw that his son had returned again. He put down the brush in his hand and asked, "Is it not about the name?"

Zhu Weidong suddenly couldn't help laughing, "Dad, didn't you say that Xiaoling would decide the name? I just told her that she has already chosen the name for the child."

Zhu Chuang became interested, and asked while wiping his hands with a towel, "What's your name?"

"Kewa."

"Kewa? Zhu Kewa." Zhu Chuang murmured several times, his pupils slowly dilating, "Good, good name, it expresses the love our Niuniu has for you."

Zhu Weidong was puzzled, "Really?"

"Well, that's a good name. I'll go find your grandfather now." Zhu Chuang was very concerned about his granddaughter and immediately went to the bedroom to find Grandpa Zhu.

Finally, except for Ji Ling who was taking care of the children upstairs, everyone else in the Zhu family gathered in the living room.

Zhu Chuang said Niuniu's name very solemnly.

The Zhu family unanimously agreed.

This name is nice, it sounds cute and special.

Isn’t Niu Niu just a doll in their eyes?

Ji Ling didn't expect the naming issue to go so smoothly. She and Zhu Weidong looked at their daughter who was sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but poke her little face with their hands.

"Kewa, Kewa, you are my good daughter."

Zhu Weidong leaned over and said, "She looks like you."

Ji Ling turned her head to look at him, "How is he similar?"

"I remember that time when you were almost hit by a carriage on the street, and I saved you. You looked so cute and innocent when you lay on me."

Ji Ling raised her eyebrows, "You still remember it?"

"It's very impressive. I remember the panic in your eyes at that time." Zhu Weidong held his wife's face.

Everyone's face was blank and blurry in his mind, but his wife's was different. In his mind, he couldn't see his wife's appearance clearly, but there was a pair of lively eyes on his wife's face.

He would never forget those eyes, smart and panicky, like a rabbit caught in a trap.

When Ji Ling was released, she lay in Zhu Weidong's arms and gasped, "Don't kiss me in front of Niuniu all the time, she will see it."

"Okay." Zhu Wei hugged his wife tightly, "I'm going to take the bus tomorrow night. I'm sorry to leave you and the child alone again."

"Work hard. It's not your fault. You told me the nature of your job when I chose you." Ji Ling patted him.
