Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 388 Grandchildren's Name
Early the next morning, Li Xin and Guan Wen said they were going back. Although Mrs. Liu was reluctant to let her daughter go, she also knew that they had to take care of their small family. Talk to her.

"You have to remember what I told you, tonics and so on should be taken as soon as possible, don't begrudge the money, it is the right way to spend it, no matter what else, the most important thing is to hurry up and have a baby matter."

Li Xin just smiled softly, and said back to Mrs. Liu, "Understood, mother."

"Don't take it seriously, you have to hurry up and do the important things that mother told you." Mrs. Liu stretched out her hand to hold Li Xin's collar and said, "Ah Wen is five years younger than you, There are not many fathers at his age, and Yang'er is not his own. He is the eldest son, how can he not carry on the family line? This task must not fall on your shoulders? It's okay if the time is short, and the time is long. What did the three aunts and six wives say? Both."

Li Xin could only nod slightly: "Mom, I understand, I will continue to drink the tonic."

Mrs. Liu sighed and said, "Don't blame your mother for forcing you. There are two major things in this woman's life. One is to marry and the other is to have children. Having a man who loves you is the first, and having a son who is filial is the second. It is said that raising a child will prevent old age. If you don’t have one yourself, what do you think is missing? If you pay more attention to your body, your mother will be your daughter, and you have all grandchildren and grandchildren, so you are just waiting to hold your grandson.”

Li Xin laughed, nodded and said softly, "Mother can't hold her grandchildren right now."

Mrs. Liu touched Li Xin's head, and sighed softly: "In a blink of an eye, that pink and tender girl is taller than your mother."

Li Xin just laughed.

Guan Wen was talking to the three brothers Li Dalang over there, while Li Houzhong was talking to Shan Zi and Yang Er with a smile.Mrs. Liu led Li Xin over, Guan Wen stopped talking, looked at Li Xin and asked with a smile, "Can we go?"

"Yeah." Li Xin nodded slightly, called Yang'er and said, "Farewell to Brother Shanzi, we are going home."

This time, Shan Zi and Yang Er didn't seem too reluctant, Shan Zi patted his chest and said proudly, "Brother Yang Er, come over next time you are free!"

Yang'er also nodded solemnly, making Li Xin and Zhang Shi laugh.

Mrs. Zhang scolded Shanzi as "a clever ghost", hugged Xiaodou in her arms and said, "It's more leisurely to go out on the road at this time, stop and go, hurry home and have lunch."

Mrs. Liu pushed Li Xin and said, "If you want to leave, don't dawdle, just leave now."

Guan Wen and Li Xin left Lijia Village, and asked Guan Wen on the way: "I didn't know what to talk about with Big Brother last night, and today we are together again, what are we talking about?"

"I didn't say anything, it was about my father-in-law and mother-in-law building a house." Guan Wen replied, watching Yang'er run to the front, and walking slowly on the country road with Li Xin: "It's true that a house has been built. There may be a shortage of manpower, and I can help."

Li Xin let out a "huh", and Guan Wen said: "It's been a month since Feizi mentioned the house, and this month I rushed to dig the cellar in the courtyard, at least I got a prototype, and then I will tell my second brother about it." The trail has been paved, but the stones have been laid, and the ground can be laid on.”

Li Xin nodded, thought for a while and said, "Rabbits are not easy to feed. You caught them from the mountains. You can catch them all and sell them when you have time. I don't want to serve those little things wholeheartedly. Chickens are fine." Hey, recently a batch of chickens were getting old, they were caught and sold, and some chicks were hatched and raised."

Guan Wen naturally had no objection: "You decide."

"By the way, how does the lotus root grow over the lotus pond?" Li Xin asked, remembering this.

Guan Wen replied: "There is no big problem in the lotus pond. The lotus root is growing very well at the moment. I have seen it every now and then. The fish are also growing well. There are some big ones, but most of them are still medium in size."

"Take a chance and catch big fish." Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Most of them are grass carp and crucian carp, right?"

"Correct."

"Catch a few small crucian carps and steam them for Yang'er to nourish his body."

Li Xin smiled and looked at Yang'er who was running in front of him, feeling emotional in his heart, and said in his mouth: "When I saw Yang'er for the first time, Mrs. Wei was yelling at him, look at him The shrunken look still makes me feel uncomfortable when I think about it now."

"Right now, Yang'er is eating well, dressing warmly, and gradually letting go of his temper, which is a good thing." Guan Wen also sighed, and said to Li Xin: "This is all thanks to you."

"There are many children in the family, but Yang'er is not noisy, and he is also well-behaved."

After a pause, Li Xin said: "My mother said that she is going to send Shanzi to school for enlightenment. He is five years old...Although it is a bit early, but I think Yang'er and Shanzi are about the same age, why not let Yang'er go too School enlightenment, right?"

Guan Wen immediately raised his head and said, "Is it too early?"

"Earlier enlightenment, children will mature sooner..." Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Besides, there are many older children in the school. I don't worry about anything else. I'm afraid that others will be young and make faces again. Being bullied. In addition, it is also a question of which school the teacher runs."

Guan Wen paused for a moment, then said after a moment of silence, "Anyone is fine, don't consider Mr. Zhang Zishan's school."

This is naturally what Li Xin thinks too. A gentleman who eats, drinks, and scrapes students' oil and water to help students bribe students to cheat in politics, even if he has real talents in his belly, it will definitely be detrimental to Yang'er's growth.Asking Yang Er to study is not to hope that he will have a great future in the future, but he should always learn the basic principles of life from his husband.If Zhang Zishan's intentions are not righteous, if Yang'er studies with him, he will definitely be affected.

Guan Wen suddenly said: "Did mother-in-law say that Shan Zi should go to a private school?"

Li Xin shook his head: "My mother just mentioned this, and I didn't ask about the specifics. But if I send Shanzi to a private school, I think it's the private school run by Mr. Gu. Since I'm an acquaintance, I can usually take care of him. Everyone is familiar with Mr.'s character and character, and you can trust him."

Guan Wen nodded.

Li Xin looked at him: "Do you want Yang'er to go there too?"

Guan Wen didn't say yes, but he didn't say no, he just smiled.Li Xin thought for a while, frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Gu's place is a bit far from our place. If Yang'er goes, it will take more than an hour to see him off."

Guan Wen sighed and said, "There are no other private schools nearby."

Li Xin thinks about it too, otherwise why did he choose a gentleman like Zhang Zishan to send Guan Zhicheng to study?Not to mention the high fees, there are still problems with character.Immediately, he could not help persuading softly: "It's not urgent. Even if Shanzi really wants to go to school for enlightenment, he probably won't be able to do it in the near future. There are too many things on his parents' side, so he can't manage it, so he has to talk less. We will not seriously consider Shanzi's matter until the matter of the house is on the right track."

He said with a smile: "But if Shanzi and Yang'er can really be enlightened in the same school, they can be regarded as a companion."

Guan Wen nodded, and suddenly smiled and said: "I forgot to say something. Today, I heard my mother-in-law asked Mingzi to give Shanzi a name. I asked him a question, and I found out that Shanzi was not his name, but his name." My son's name is Li Hang."

"You just know?" Li Xin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Usually you are called Shanzi and Xiaodou, but I never noticed it. I thought Shanzi was called Li Shan and Xiaodou was called Li Dou."

Li Xin said happily with a "puchi": "My natal family has a student who studies in a private school, so he must worry about his nephew's name."

Guan Wen couldn't help but also smiled, and asked: "Then why are they called Shanzi and Xiaodou? Like Yang'er and Xiaokang, why not just take one of his names?"

Li Xin chuckled and said, "I heard from my mother that when Shanzi was born, the grandchildren of my uncle's family already had Dajiang from my cousin's family and Dahe Dahu from my second cousin's family. Uncle heard that my father had a grandson." , insisting that my father name their grandchildren, of course my mother was not happy, saying that their names were not pleasant, and asked my third brother to choose a good one. The third brother had just entered school at that time and could not read well. Not much, I picked up a complicated word 'hang' that my husband said had meaning for my mother, and my mother took this as Shanzi's name and called it Li Hang. In order to deal with the uncle and grandma, I had to give Shanzi a nickname, Famous Mountain, but I didn’t want to ask my uncle’s family to call him “Da Shan” instead of calling him Shan Zi.”

Guan Wen laughed: "Mother-in-law is really a strong person."

"Yes." Li Xin laughed.

"Then why didn't you deal with your uncle when you got to Douzi?" Guan Wen asked again.

Li Xin laughed again and said: "My mother also said this, she said that the grandchildren of the uncle's family were named according to 'rivers, lakes and seas'. It was supposed to be called Chuanzi, but my mother thought it didn’t sound good when she pronounced it. At that time, Xiaodou was born with pockets on both sides of her face, bulging, very cute. My sister-in-law called Xiaodou accidentally, and my mother took it and called it. .”

Li Xin said: "Hurry up and ask the third brother to give Xiaodou a name. The third brother has also studied for more than two years at that time, and he knows more words. Thinking of my brothers, I still stay next to each other. Shanzi's word for "hang" was taken from the character "ge" as the name of Xiaodou. The names of Li Hang and Li Ge were settled, and Xiaodou's nickname was also called that. The family has always been That's what it's called."

"Uncle, do you have any objections?"

"At first uncle had objections because grandma had objections. After all, Shanzi is father's eldest grandson. Xiaodou is not the eldest grandson, and grandma never asked about it. Naturally, uncle has no reason to talk to us about what we have or not."

Li Xin spread his hands: "Speaking of which, the names of the grandsons and granddaughters of the uncle's family are indeed quite simple. Boys are older, and girls are younger. They can be clearly distinguished. The girls in the village are also called like that. That’s right. Mother just wanted Shanzi’s and the others’ names to sound more connotative.”

Li Xin said with a smile: "You know my mother's temper, she won't admit defeat, even cares about her name."

Guan Wen laughed: "I don't think it's bad. After all, the names of Shanzi and Xiaodou sound better than those of Dajiang and the others."

Li Xin nodded, then looked at Guan Wen and asked, "I forgot to ask you, did the third brother tell you what name was given to Shan Zi?"
