Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 1794 No way
Cheng Tianyuan's eyes flashed slightly and he was speechless for a moment.

"...No, didn't you tell me earlier? An old relative from my hometown passed away. Mom was too sad... I guess it was caused by sadness."

Xue Ling glanced at him and whispered: "Which of us is following whom? Do you think you can hide it from me? In the evening, you were absent-minded and spoke incoherently. I knew you were lying to me at that time. We have slept together for decades, Not one or two days.”

Husband and wife have been of the same mind and have been harmonious for decades, not overnight.

There are some things and some words that you don’t need to say too much to understand the magical power.

Cheng Tianyuan smiled bitterly: "It seems that I still can't hide it from you."

Xue Ling patted his chest and asked, "What's going on? I want you to tell me everything."

Cheng Tianyuan sighed helplessly and explained in a low voice: "Mom... I wonder if the two juniors can find a surname of 'Cheng'. She is worried that if Xue Yang takes the surname of 'Xue' in the future, future generations of the Cheng family may not have a share."

"Oh." Xue Ling had clearly heard the conversation between mother and son on the way here earlier, and she didn't know that he was hiding part of it.

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head: "Ignore her. She is old, and her thoughts are inevitably old-fashioned and outdated. Since it was agreed at the beginning, it is a deal. How can it be changed overnight."

"It was not decided at the beginning." Xue Ling told the truth: "At that time, I only said that Xue Yang would take my surname. Later, when I was pregnant with twins, the third child would take your surname, and the fourth son would take my surname."

Cheng Tianyuan said "Hey!" and said: "Xue Yang is already named 'Xue', so his descendants will naturally follow his surname 'Xue'. What's the point of getting a surname 'Cheng'? The child's father's surname is 'Xue' ', my mother's surname is 'Wang', where did Cheng come from? Don't put unnecessary burdens on the younger generations. The surname is just a prefix, there is no need to involve too much."

"Since Mom likes it, let's choose a surname of 'Cheng'." Xue Ling said warmly: "She is so old, and there are still things that she can't bear to think about, so let's accommodate her. She is in her nineties, so we still have to do it. How many days do you have to accommodate her, right?"

Cheng Tianyuan was stunned, then shook his head: "No need. If the babies are our children, we still have the right to choose and decide. But they are the children of Xue Yang and Xiaoxiao, and the decision is theirs. Without their consent, How can we make random decisions?"

Xue Ling explained in a low voice: "National laws and regulations do not stipulate that citizens can only take the surname of their parents, and they can also choose the surnames of other relatives to follow. If they are ethnic minorities, they must respect their naming habits and customs and make their own arrangements. We will make arrangements later , let’s ask Xue Yang and Xiaoxiao for their opinions.”

"I don't agree." Cheng Tianyuan frowned and said: "We have always given our children enough freedom. If the two of us make a decision, Xue Yang and Xiaoxiao are both filial people and will naturally listen to us. In case they are unwilling in their hearts. , wouldn't that make things difficult for them? It's not like our family has no descendants named 'Cheng'! The eldest and the third will also get married and have offspring in the future. In the future, a lot of grandchildren will follow my surname of 'Cheng', so there is no need to worry. "Xue Ling couldn't help but remind: "We are all filial people. Your mother thinks so, can we not listen to her?"

"That's different." Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice: "When my mother mentioned this, I don't know what my father-in-law and mother-in-law thought. My father promised that the two children would be named Xue, and he agreed. My mother is more traditional and ideological. She's not high either, but she always remembers some feudal ideas of the older generation. You can't spoil her for everything, or she will be spoiled."

"Aren't I afraid that you will be in trouble?" If you are old and can’t stand your anger, please accommodate her if you can.”

"I don't agree." Cheng Tianyuan said: "If half of the children in each family are to be named 'Cheng' and the other half are named 'Xue', wouldn't it cause chaos sooner or later? What if a child only gives birth to one child, or three children? Well, isn't it unevenly distributed? Will her old man have another quarrel? My children, I can still make the decision. My grandchildren, I can't make the decision one by one. Can you be reasonable and considerate to her? Old man, what about other people? My daughter-in-law came to our house as a relative, and she can’t scold or beat her own children. We have to respect our daughter-in-law’s opinions more. Now that Xinzhi and Xiaoxin are also engaged, is it possible that they can go and give them to us? Are they making such a request? Xinzhi's father's relatives are all gone, so he inherited a surname. How dare you tell him that the surname of his future children will be 'Cheng' or 'Xue'?"

"What you said woke me up." Xue Ling sighed faintly: "I didn't think deeply about it earlier, I just felt that there was no need to piss off the old man for a trivial matter."

Cheng Tianyuan patted her arm gently and said warmly: "I know you are doing it for me too. But you really can't agree to this easily, otherwise it will be very difficult for the children in the future. The second child was asked, what about the eldest and third child? The fourth child What? She is even more different from her brothers. She is a married daughter. She has several brothers in her natal family. How can she ask her children to follow their maiden name? Wouldn't such an announcement embarrass Xinzhi and Xiaoxin? ?Why bother? It makes the juniors feel uncomfortable."

"Indeed." Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "If it is our child, we have the final say. But the grandchildren... it is really difficult to speak."

Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice: "If we ask now, Xue Yang and Xiaoxiao will probably agree. After all, they are both good children who are filial to their elders. But in the future, they will have children, and the eldest and third will also have children. How will they be divided then? ? One has the surname 'Cheng' and the other has the surname 'Xue'? What if the number is an odd number, which one is more? If we do this, all the daughters-in-law will agree? So will the son-in-law? What if the daughter-in-law also asks that half of them have her surname? More mess?"

"I was too greedy back then." Xue Ling sighed: "If there was only one with my last name, my mother wouldn't care too much about her great-grandson and great-granddaughter's surname 'Xue' today."

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head: "That's not the case. My mother is too greedy."

"It's better not to be too arbitrary about this matter." Xue Ling whispered: "When Mom wakes up, I have to analyze it carefully with her. She is not an unreasonable person, and she has to be sensible and rational."

"Take your time." Cheng Tianyuan said: "We have to let Xue Yang and the others talk to the old man themselves. The child is theirs, and we can't make the decision at will. If they refuse, what can the old man say? Of course there is nothing to say. explain."

"Okay." Xue Ling nodded: "This may be better. If we speak, the old man may be even more angry."
