Hearing her ask this, Jiang Junmo couldn't help but laugh, "My grandfather only gave me a name. The rest of his grandchildren's names were not given by him."
Without waiting for Lu Xia to ask, he continued, "There were originally four children in my uncle's family. My eldest cousin was born early. At that time, my eldest aunt was still working as a resident doctor in the local army. After giving birth to her, my eldest aunt didn't want her to be constrained because she was a girl, so she named her Chengzhi. Then my eldest cousin was named Chengcun. The children after that didn't need to be named specifically. They were named Chenggao and Chengyuan."
Lu Xia was surprised to hear this. She remembered that there were only two children in his uncle's family.
Jiang Junmo also sighed and continued, "My eldest cousin died unexpectedly during a mission. She was only 18 years old at the time and hadn't started a family yet. As for my third cousin, he died of illness when he was five years old. So now only my eldest cousin Jiang Chengcun and my cousin Jiang Chengyuan are left in my aunt's family."
"Oh, so that's it!" Lu Xia sighed when he heard this.
Jiang Junmo paused for a moment, then continued, "As for my parents, they gave birth to my eldest sister and second sister as twins, and my third sister and fourth sister as well. They gave birth to two pairs of twins in a row, and the family was very happy. My grandmother even named them herself, Jiarong, Jiarui, Jiaxin, and Jiamin.
Because of giving birth to twins in succession, my mother's body became weak and she thought she would never have children again. Unexpectedly, she gave birth to me unexpectedly.
After I was born, I wanted to be named after my sister with the Chinese character Jia in it, but my grandfather insisted that my grandmother had chosen the name before, and he wanted to choose it this time. My grandmother couldn't persuade him, so she had to agree, so he named me Junmo. "
Lu Xia nodded, wanting to laugh when she thought of Jiang Junmo's grandparents arguing for the right to name their grandchildren.
"Your sisters' names are all very nice. Grandma can tell from the looks of it that she is a cultured person."
...
...
"Yes." Jiang Junmo also nodded, "My grandmother's family was a scholarly family during the Republic of China. She went to a girls' high school and had the opportunity to go to college, but she decided to join the army and met my grandfather.
Even though she always said that she looked down on my grandfather because he was a rough man, in fact, she got along very well with my grandfather. For decades, my grandfather had always doted on my grandmother.
Even after grandma passed away, grandpa almost died with her. But after everyone persuaded him, and because the family situation was very bad at that time, grandpa barely managed to pull through.
Fortunately, I have let it go now and my health has improved a lot.”
Lu Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had heard from Jiang Junmo before that her grandfather's generation got married early, so they had children early as well. Now they have great-grandchildren, and her grandfather is only in his seventies this year.
In fact, grandma had more than just two children, Jiang Junmo's father and uncle. She also had two daughters, but they both died unexpectedly. Together with Jiang Junmo's father, only one is left out of the four children. How sad she must be!
It was at that time that his health was damaged and he died early.
Having said enough, let’s get back to the present.
After looking at these three names, both of them were a little hesitant and didn't know which one to choose.
"Which one do you like?" Jiang Junmo asked.
Lu Xia thought for a moment and said, "The first two, Chen An and Qi Chen have more profound meanings and are not so straightforward. What about you?"
Jiang Junmo is the exact opposite of her, "I like the last one, Lu Ming."
"Oh? Why?" Lu Xia was curious.
Jiang Junmo smiled and said, "The first two are good, and the meanings are good, but the third one is not bad either, not to mention that the third name has the word 'lu' in it, which sounds the same as your last name. I think grandpa probably chose this one for this meaning.
So I wanted to choose this name.
Kang Kang is our first child, I want him to have our names in his name..."
When Lu Xia heard this reason, her eyes became hot and she almost cried. She turned her head away and calmed down before saying nonchalantly: "Very good, you decide. If you like the third one, choose it, Jiang Luming, it's also very nice and loud!" M..
Jiang Junmo smiled and pretended not to notice her strangeness, "Okay, then it's decided. Kang Kang's name will be Jiang Luming!"
