National Tide 1980.

Chapter 427
People in Beijing are very particular about names.

From the names of people to the names of shops to the names of streets, bridges, and buildings, everything is particular.

What is the point?

What matters is name and meaning.

Because people in the capital believe in the words and precepts of their ancestors - if the name is not right, the words will not go well, and if the words go wrong, nothing will be accomplished.

That's why once a child is born, people in the capital do everything possible to give the child an auspicious name.

Take the precious grandson of the Bian family as an example, the size of this little guy is unambiguous.

That was the name that the Bian family begged Kang Shude to give him, called Bian Xusheng.

It means the rising sun.

Listen, what a boldness it is!
Although the adults in the Bian family also know that the name is just a symbol.

Know that even if you give a mouse a nice name, it can't become a cat.

But there will still be stubborn cares about naming the child.

I hope to take this opportunity to express my best wishes to my loved ones.

I hope that my children can really be as promising as this name.

The same goes for opening a store.

No matter how small the front door is, even if the house is so dilapidated that it is about to collapse.

The shop owner also had to find a way to come up with a happy, elegant, and generous name.

Otherwise, don't say that he has no heart to do business by himself, even if the customers are unwilling to come into the store to take care of his business.

Perhaps from this aspect alone, we can see the difference between Jinmen people and Beijing people.

Because the soil of the capital will never give birth to such an unlawful signboard as "Goubuli".

Here, even a small shop selling raw chickens and ducks has to be called "Judequan".

Even a box shop that sells sauced elbows has to be called "Tianfuhao".

Even a mutton bed has to be called "Jubaoyuan".

This is especially true for larger businesses, whose names are more auspicious than the last, and they all use good words.

Words like "Fu", "He", "Yi", "Tong", "Ju", "Bao", "Shun" and "Qing" are commonly used.

To put it bluntly, if the name of the store is not chosen well, it doesn't seem like that.

For the people of the capital, it was as intolerable as stepping on a muddy puddle.

As for the auspicious words, the word "spring" is also very common.

For example, there is Changchuntang in the pharmacy in the capital, Zhenghechun in the silk shop, and Wu Ruichun and Qinglinchun in the tea shop.

There are even eight restaurants in Zhuangguan with the word "spring" in their names, which are collectively called "Eight Great Springs".

I want to ask why people in Beijing like the word "spring" so much?

For nothing else, the main reason is that everything sprouts and grows luxuriantly when winter goes to spring.

People in the capital will use the word "spring" to imply the prosperity of things.

Otherwise, after the Chinese New Year, the Bian family and the Luo family in No. 2 courtyard of Shan'er Hutong are busy and rushing to find a partner for their youngest son.

After all, in this season full of vitality, even kittens and puppies are willing to join together.

This also means that the hormones of young men and women will be exuberant. At this time, blind dates have the highest probability of success in dating.

But it's a pity that even though the elders are so shrewd, they are still wise.

Because they overlooked one thing, times have changed.

This is no longer the era of parents' order and matchmaker's words.

The core of marriage is no longer as simple as "marrying a man, marrying a man, dressing and eating, marrying a wife, cooking and washing".

"It's not that a family does not enter a family", the conditions pointed to have already become harsh.

How can it be so easy to form a family relationship?
If any condition is misplaced, it will be the word "failure".

Take Luo Guangliang as an example.

It must be admitted that his sister-in-law, Miao Yujuan, who received the imperial decree from her in-laws, is extremely responsible for his affairs.

Ten days after the Spring Festival, I took a girl from the same factory who was in pretty good condition back home.

This girl wants to look good, she wants to be stylish, and she also likes to dress up.

Regardless of appearance or age, he actually matches Luo Guangliang very well.

But the problem lies precisely in the matter of Luo Guangliang's "going in".

The girl was originally satisfied with Luo Guangliang's appearance and income, but knowing that Luo Guangliang had been in, she was more concerned.

So Miao Yujuan was able to bring other girls here because she actually compromised and accommodated.

She promised the girl that she could use the matter of buying clothes as an introduction first, and let the two of them meet and talk about it later.

If the girl has a feeling, then talk about other things, otherwise it will avoid embarrassment, and there is no need to point it out.

As for this matter, in fact, it went smoothly at the beginning, and it was indeed similar to what Miao Yujuan had expected.

When she dragged her mother-in-law and aunt to the kitchen to have a chat, and created conditions for the two of them, a man and a woman, to be alone.

Luo Guangliang behaved fairly naturally in front of the girl.

It is both kind and righteous.

I am very patient when introducing clothes to girls, and the price is not expensive, purely friendly price.

In addition, Luo Guangliang was afraid of being misunderstood, so he didn't look sideways, and just honestly said what he should say.

This made the girl smile even more, thinking that he was quite honest.

On the contrary, he really had some meaning, so he took the initiative to joke with him.

"Hey, let me tell you a joke."

"Ah, a joke?"

"Listen, a praying mantis is going to introduce a female butterfly, and when they meet, they find out that it is a male spider. After meeting, the praying mantis asks the butterfly 'how is it? Got'..."

Unexpectedly, the girl purposely aimed her bright eyes at Luo Guangliang for a long time.

It turned out that he didn't smile at all, and actually said so.

"This joke is not funny. Why is the butterfly so stupid? Was it eaten by the spider or the praying mantis?"

The girl was suddenly dumbfounded and lost interest, thinking that Luo Guangliang didn't understand humor at all.

What is even more embarrassing in the future is the hospitality link.

Luo Guangliang doesn't have much experience in dealing with the opposite sex, especially young girls.

He didn't know what to say except about the clothes, so he would just sit with the girl in a daze.

He pours a bowl of tea for others in a while, and pours another bowl in a while.

Later, the girl couldn't help but ask, "How do I get to the toilet?"

When she came back from the toilet again, the girl would of course refuse to drink tea.

Luo Guangliang felt a little embarrassed, so he took out fruit to entertain.

Luo's oranges are big and sweet.

At first the girl was a little embarrassed to eat.

But under Luo Guangliang's kind invitation again and again, the girl ate the few smallest oranges on the side of the orange plate.

After a while, Luo Guangsheng came back from the outside with his son on a bicycle.

Unexpectedly, a small villain like Robin would be anxious when he saw the plate of fruit when he entered the room.

Crying and clamoring to find five small oranges as souvenirs in the orange tray.

With this coming out, how can the girl be ashamed to stay?
As an uninvited guest who ate the little orange, facing Robin's snot and tears.

The girl was full of guilt, she was so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground, she hurriedly took her leave, covered her face and left.

Not to mention that I didn't eat, I even forgot to take the clothes I bought.

Then when Miao Yujuan turned around and understood the whole process, wouldn't she be angry?

Her complexion was extremely ugly, and she scolded her son and Luo Guangliang together.

"Hey, there is no such thing as the two of you. Those who should be obedient and those who should not be obedient are all stupid."

"San'er, are you a piece of wood? What are you going to do with someone like this? One hundred percent, you have to burn the candle."
