Chapter 142 Name
Chapter 142 Name
When Zhu Tingyue heard "Old Wang next door," a scene reflexively flashed into her mind—the scene when Shen Yanqiu mentioned the child's name to her!
So, Shen Yanqiu is talking about this?
Zhu Tingyue smiled confidently and patted the child lightly with one hand: "It's just a name. I've come up with a few. Take a look and see if they're suitable."
After she named a few people, she looked at Shen Yanqiu, waiting for his opinion.
Shen Yanqiu thought she had forgotten, but each of the names she uttered was profound in meaning, suggesting she must have consulted many dictionaries.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" Shen Yanqiu asked her.
"Didn't we say we wanted to give the kids a surprise? Whichever one you like, we'll use it!"
Shen Yanqiu shook her head: "You decide!"
"You gave birth to the child, so you decide!" Zhu Tingyue gave him the final say.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Yanqiu decided on the name "Zhiyang".
"The clouds and rainbows are hazy and beautiful, the jade phoenixes sing sweetly. Zhu Zhiyang, what a wonderful name!"
Zhu Tingyue interrupted him: "It's not 'Zhu Zhiyang,' it's 'Shen Zhiyang'!"
Shen Yanqiu disagreed: "We agreed before that the child's surname would be Zhu, so let's name him Zhu Zhiyang!"
"Who said that? It's my child, and I decide what to do with him. I'll give him the surname Shen!"
Zhu Tingyue moved closer to Shen Yanqiu, turned his face to face, and said earnestly again, "Shen Yanqiu, I already have someone who loves me with the surname Zhu. Let him take the surname Shen, so that I can have another person with the surname Shen who loves me, okay?"
Shen Yanqiu instantly understood what she meant.
She also has the surname Zhu. She loves herself, but no one in the Shen family loves her anymore. So, she lets her child also have the surname Shen, so that she will have a family and more Shen family members who love her!
Shen Yanqiu nodded, accepting her kindness.
His Zhu Tingyue is his moon! It will forever shine for him!
Throughout her postpartum period, Zhu Tingyue was busy taking care of everything, either hovering around Shen Yanqiu or carrying the baby back and forth.
Now, her way of holding children is so skillful that it's astonishing.
Jiang Wanjun exclaimed in surprise, "Yueyue, you really look like a mother! Look at how you hold the baby, tsk tsk, I'm ashamed of myself!"
Zhu Tingyue, without even looking up at this frequent guest of the Zhu family, said, "Of course, this is my son. If I don't hold him, who will?"
Jiang Wanyun leaned close to her ear and asked, "Oh, you're not busy with work now?"
Knowing that she was deliberately laughing at her, Zhu Tingyue glanced at Shen Yanqiu first before glaring at Jiang Wanjun and saying, "Don't bring up things that are hard to talk about. If you keep doing this, I'm going to kick you out!"
Jiang Wanyun raised her hands in a gesture of surrender: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. But I can't leave, I still need to see my godson!"
She dropped the things she had brought for the child and reached out to hug him, but Zhu Tingyue was worried and refused to let go.
"Just take a look. You have no experience, I'll hold it."
How could Jiang Wanjun possibly agree willingly?
You see, the moment she saw this fair-skinned, chubby little dumpling, she was immediately captivated by his adorable appearance and simply couldn't put him down!
The little dumpling's skin was as delicate and smooth as mutton fat jade, with a faint luster;
Her big, round eyes shone brightly like black gemstones, and her fluttering eyelashes were like two small fans.
Her rosy little lips were slightly pouting, as if she might call out "Sweet Auntie" at any moment.
Whenever Jiang Wanjun gently stroked the little dumpling's soft hair and chubby little hands and feet, her heart was filled with endless love and tenderness.
She wished she could hold this little baby in her arms every moment.
"I'm not satisfied with just watching, let me hug you."
She tugged at Zhu Tingyue's clothes and pleaded, "Yueyue, just let me hug you for a moment!"
Zhu Tingyue looked at her amusedly: "You're still acting like a child? You're not even as cute as a baby."
Taking the little dumpling from Zhu Tingyue's hands, Jiang Wanyun said proudly, "I'm willing!"
She refused to sit still while holding the child, insisting on walking back and forth, forcing Zhu Tingyue to follow her step by step.
After all that hustle and bustle, Zhu Tingyue was even more tired than if she were holding the baby herself.
"Wanjun, give him to me, you can rest for a while."
Jiang Wanjun didn't want to let go; the little guy had just smiled at her!
Zhu Tingyue threatened her, "If you don't give it to me soon, he's going to make a scene!"
Jiang Wanjun wasn't afraid at all. She had held her nephew when he was little, and he was very well-behaved.
Besides, the one in my arms is so small and cute, I've never heard him cry!
"No way! Go away! I've had my fill of it, so I'll give it to you!"
Zhu Tingyue asked curiously, "Haven't you had enough of holding your brother's kids yet?"
Jiang Wanyun got angry just thinking about her brother: "His son is naughty. Now that he's grown up, he's making a ruckus and giving me a headache."
"Then why don't you have one yourself!"
Jiang Wanjun fell silent upon hearing this, but Zhu Tingyue keenly sensed something was amiss and pressed, "Shi Yuan wants a child?"
"No, no, don't talk nonsense!"
Jiang Wanjun denied the rumors three times in a row, her voice a bit loud, which startled Zhu Tingyue, who quickly hugged the child and patted him repeatedly.
"If you don't have it, you don't have it. Why are you making such a big reaction?"
Zhu Tingyue narrowed her eyes slightly, subtly casting her gaze in her direction.
That casual glance, however, precisely captured the fleeting, barely concealed unnatural expression on her face.
Like a ripple suddenly appearing on a calm lake, though subtle, it still couldn't escape Zhu Tingyue's sharp, hawk-like eyes.
"I'm not having a strong reaction at all. I've always been like this, okay?"
She remained defiant, and Zhu Tingyue didn't refute her: "Yes, yes, yes, you've always had such a booming voice, so earth-shattering."
Jiang Wanjun glared at her, seemingly both embarrassed and angry. After a long while, she continued, "Yueyue, tell me, if—I mean, if—someone told you they wanted to get married and have a child, would you agree?"
What if Shi Yuan brings up marriage?
Zhu Tingyue pretended to think: "Is there someone who wants to get married and have children?"
Jiang Wanjun automatically added, "If, if!"
Ignoring her obvious attempt to cover up her blunder, Zhu Tingyue gave her answer: "I will not agree!"
"why?"
Zhu Tingyue was straightforward: "Because I don't know what 'if' means!"
"Zhu! Ting! Yue!"
Jiang Wanjun's anger was instantly ignited and burned fiercely.
However, out of concern for her child, fearing that her shouting would wake her sleeping baby, she had to do her best to suppress her anger and lower her voice as much as possible.
Nevertheless, the roar squeezed out from deep in his throat still carried an uncontrollable rage, like a trapped beast struggling to break free of its restraints and roar to its heart's content.
Zhu Tingyue knows everything! She did it on purpose!
