Chapter 27 part 2
And the two talked about other things for a while, coaxed the child, cleaned themselves up, and went to sleep.
After lying down, Lin Nianyin suddenly remembered and asked, "Wei Mingchuan, what is your daughter's name?"
Wei Mingchuan: "..."
Wei Mingchuan was silent and said, "You don't like what I said before."
Lin Nianyin said: "Because it sounds ugly."
Wei Mingchuan: "..."
This was the first time Wei Mingchuan had trouble coming up with a name. He had already considered it a lot while on the production team, but Lin Nianyin didn't like it. Some were extracted from poems, and she didn't want to hear them either.
Wei Mingchuan looked at the dark room and thought, "How about calling it Xiaoxiao, Dawn Break? This should be fine. It has a good meaning and sounds good when you read it."
Lin Nianyin smacked her name for a while, "Xiaoxiao, Wei Xiaoxiao, Wei Xiao, Wei Xiao, it's still a little strange."
Wei Mingchuan suddenly said: "Lin Xiao, She will take your surname."
"Ah?" Lin Nianyin subconsciously turned her head to look at Wei Mingchuan; she saw a dark scene and a vague outline.
Lin Nianyin asked: "Why do you suddenly want our child to have my last name?"
Wei Mingchuan said: "Isn't it good to have your last name?"
Lin Nianyin: "... It's not bad, just good. Why do you suddenly talk about this?"
Wei Mingchuan said: "I am not a qualified father. I am worse than my surname..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lin Nianyin grabbed Wei Mingchuan's hand.
Wei Mingchuan held Lin Nianyin's hand with his backhand and squeezed it in his palm. After a while, he spoke again, "I don't want her to be named Wei, so let's call her Lin Xiaoxiao."
Lin Nianyin: "...Lin Xiaoxiao doesn't sound good."
Wei Mingchuan: "...Then I'll think about it again."
Lin Nianyin said: "Lin Xiao is okay. My nickname is Xiaoxiao, and my first name is Lin Xiao. Otherwise, children may find the overlapping names a bit strange when they grow up."
Wei Mingchuan: "It's up to you."
Since then, the name of Lin Xiao's child has been determined again.
The next day, Wei Mingchuan got up early in the morning.
He washed all the clothes he had changed at home yesterday and left a note for Lin Nianyin before leaving.
On the way, the other men in the car couldn't help but look at Wei Mingchuan with strange eyes.
Wei Mingchuan looked at each other calmly, not feeling that there was anything wrong with him at all.
However, several men felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Wei Mingchuan.
-
The military area where Wei Mingchuan was located was huge, and many people were there. Cars were provided because the family area was quite far from the camp area.
Almost every cadre at regiment level and above has one.
To save resources for the country and save gasoline, several people use one car to get to and from work, and the other vehicles are usually kept in the army for other purposes.
Otherwise, everyone would drive to and from work, and this foreign style would be unfamiliar, but it would be wasteful.
The people in the car today are all colleagues of Wei Mingchuan.
We are all grown men. Anyone who has not adopted machismo and has never washed their clothes would be too embarrassed! This is the first time I see a man doing laundry. Wei Mingchuan is a well-known top student and needs to be easier to get along with. Isn't it strange?
Therefore, not long after Wei Mingchuan arrived at the camp, many people knew that he, a grown man, got up early in the morning to wash clothes.
Don't think that men don't gossip. Men gossip even more than women.
When Wei Mingchuan returned from his vacation, the people he met on the road always stared at him with meaningful eyes.
Wei Mingchuan frowned.
He returned to his office and began to deal with matters during this period.
It took nearly a month from when he returned home to when he came back, and there was a lot of backlog in the group.
While he was busy, there was a knock on the door.
Wei Mingchuan: "Come in."
Several soldiers led by Yang Duozhi came in.
When they arrived, they naturally reported the business matters first. When they finished discussing business matters, several grown men suddenly lost their severe previous appearance. They winked at Wei Mingchuan and said: "Captain, I heard that my sister-in-law is at home asking you to do the laundry?"
"Sister-in-law is so powerful, she can actually control our leader!"
"What the hell are you talking about? You haven't seen that our sister-in-law looks like a fairy. If it were me, I would be obedient. Washing clothes doesn't matter. I am willing to make clothes!"
"Really or not, can my sister-in-law be as good-looking as Liao Tingting from the art troupe?"
"Much prettier than Liao Tingting!"
…
Wei Mingchuan put down his pen, looked at the chattering old men before him, and frowned, "Is everything okay?"
"It's gone. Our group just went out a while ago. It's not our turn to do any tasks now. We just finished talking about the business." Some people were not aware of the danger.
Wei Mingchuan closed the pen cap, covered the document, stood up, straightened his military uniform, put on his hat, and said: "Since everything is fine, let's go practice. I will be the referee. Whoever loses will know what to do."
Everyone: "..."
Everyone: "!"
It's all our fault for being mean-mouthed and thinking we could see the group leader's jokes!
Not to mention the bustle here, Lin Nianyin followed Wei Mingchuan as soon as he got up.
She looked at the child first, helped her change and wash her, and then cleaned herself up.
Wei Mingchuan left a note saying he had gone to work, and there was porridge in the pot for her to eat first. He also said that he would return at noon and bring food from the canteen, so she should stop cooking.
Lin Nianyin put the note away and ate first, then started thinking about things after eating.
There is nothing at home for now, and there is nothing to take care of now.
The child is too young and sleeps most of the time. When she wakes up, she rarely makes trouble and is very well-behaved.
She didn't need to do any other work. Lin Nianyin took out the drawings she had drawn yesterday and continued designing.
Let's get the house decoration done first.
Speaking of which, the place where Wei Mingchuan served belongs to the southwest, almost close to Yunnan, with four distinct seasons. The sunshine is very long in summer and not very cold in winter, saving the trouble of making a bed.
If it were like Xiao Qingshan, she would have to consider the bed. Otherwise, it would be uncomfortable to sleep at night.
She let it go because she didn't want to freeze the child.
But speaking of children, whether Cen Wangsu is brought over in the end or not, the two children are young and only need a few things. There is no need to install anything special in the other two rooms for the time being.
Anyway, she and Wei Mingchuan have no relatives now, and no one will come over in the future. Just leave it empty. When the children are older and can sleep alone, it will be too late to make beds, cabinets, etc. for them; otherwise, they will wake up early. It was also placed there.
Just thinking about it, by the time Wei Mingchuan came back, Lin Nianyin had almost finished everything.
After eating, Wei Mingchuan hurriedly left in the car.
Lin Nianyin coaxed the child for a while, but when she saw that she didn't want to sleep, her brows furrowed tightly. She couldn't help but feel happy, so she hugged her and walked outside.
She had yet to set foot here in her previous life, so this time, she would like to visit some places first and become familiar with the road.
Lin Nianyin wrapped the child in her arms, locked the door, and started walking around.
As I said, the houses here are built door to door, with an avenue in the middle.
At the end of the corridor is a ninety-degree road connecting every avenue.
Lin Nianyin had never been here in her previous life. Looking left and right, she needed to find out where the different roads lead.
Just when she was about to choose a direction, the door of a house opened, and a middle-aged woman sitting at the door took the initiative and said, "Are you a family member of the regimental commander of the 785th Division?"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "I am, I didn't know you were..."
In fact, generally speaking, when you meet people here, you basically call me sister-in-law.
But Wei Mingchuan said before that many people living here are the first batch of family members eligible to join the army. The positions in each family are not low, and the family's age is also there. In this case, Some people may not necessarily like the sound of sister-in-law.
This was Lin Nianyin's experience in her previous life, so she did not speak rashly.
The woman put down the soles of her shoes, stood up, rubbed her eyes, and said, "You definitely don't know me. My man is from the 932 Division. His surname is Han, and my surname is Yang. I look to be more than twice your age. What do you call me?" Sister-in-law is not suitable either, so call me aunt."
Lin Nianyin said quickly: "Hello, Aunt Yang; my name is Lin Nianyin."
"Lin Nianyin." Aunt Yang slapped her mouth, "Your name is quite difficult to pronounce."
Lin Nianyin smiled, and Aunt Yang seemed to say it casually, then stretched her head to look at the child in her arms, "Is this your child? A boy or a girl? It looks like it's not even three months old, right?"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "It's a girl. She was born in April, just over a month old."
Aunt Yang asked, "Have you given a name?"
Lin Nianyin: "I'm up. My big name is Lin Xiao, my nickname is Xiaoxiao, the dawn of dawn."
Aunt Yang was stunned but didn't notice the second half of what Lin Nianyin said. Instead, she said in surprise: "What did you say? Your name is Lin Xiao, and your surname is the same?"
Lin Nianyin nodded.
She didn't know Aunt Yang's specific temperament and didn't want to say more about it. It wouldn't look good if she was forced to teach her a lesson again.
Lin Nianyin said: "Our family, Wei Mingchuan, said that our surname is mine."
Aunt Yang clicked her tongue, which took her a long time to react. There was still a look of surprise on her face, "Good Lord, I've grown so big that I've been half buried in the earth. This is the first time I've seen a child take his mother's surname."
She didn't know what she was thinking, but her expression changed. She moved closer to Lin Nianyin and said, "Is it possible that the married woman in your family is a bride-in-law? I've only heard that only married-in-laws will take their mother's surname."."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
She shook her head, "That's not true. I want the child to take my last name."
After a pause, she added: "Besides, it doesn't matter whether the child has the father's surname or the mother's surname."
"The difference isn't that it's the boss; men want to carry on the family line." Aunt Yang answered subconsciously.
Lin Nianyin: "..."
Lin Nianyin discovered for the first time that the future life was perfect.
The popularization of nine-year compulsory education and the high development of the Internet and information technology are the most significant progress and feats.
Although there are still many people who still retain the so-called old and rigid ideas, naturally thinking that men should be superior, more girls have stood up.
Although the future generations will not be equal between men and women, it will constantly improve.
But now, she can't explain the so-called equality between men and women to a woman in her forties or fifties who was deeply poisoned by feudal ideas in her early years. She can't change her long-established idea of passing on the family line and let her suddenly come to the other side.
Maybe she will think she was sick.
