farmer's wife

Chapter 114 Naming
As the days went by, the Xiao family gradually became more cheerful and laughing.

At the end of February, Fu Yan was about to give birth.

Xiao Lie's cautious mood made the whole family tense up.

Every day after school, Xiao Jian would go to Fu Yan to make sure that she and the baby are doing well before finishing their homework.

Although Xiao Lie suppressed his emotions, he didn't want Fu Yan to feel his nervousness and pressure.

But as the person next to her pillow, how could Fu Yan not notice it.

That night, Xiao Lie lay on Fu Yan's stomach to feel the baby's little movements, and at the same time told the baby a little story in a low voice.

Fu Yan lay half down and looked at him: "Brother Alie, the baby will meet us soon, have you figured out his name yet?"

Find something to distract him.

Xiao Lie froze, and sat up straight after a while.

Fu Yan pursed her lips and looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Lie had been choosing a name for several months. Seeing that he was looking forward to it so seriously, Fu Yan let him think about it.It's just that this is about to happen, and Xiao Lie hasn't decided on a name yet.

Everyone has always called the child in Fu Yan's stomach "baby" and "baby".

Xiao Lie sat upright in the middle of the bed, cleared his throat and focused on Fu Yan's stomach, but did not turn his head to look at Fu Yan.

"This matter of naming should not be sloppy! The name will accompany the child's life, and I need to think about it carefully."

Fu Yan suppressed her smile, pretending to be wronged and complained: "You have been choosing for more than seven months! You haven't figured it out yet, do you not care about our baby?"

Fu Yan said too much that the baby would hear outside voices, Xiao Lie took it seriously, and read to the baby for a while every night.

Hearing Fu Yan slandering him so much at this time, Xiao Lie quickly covered Fu Yan's mouth, then lay down on Fu Yan's stomach and explained anxiously:
"Baby, don't listen to what your mother said. Dad cares about you! Dad has been waiting for you to be born safely, so naturally you should choose a name with a good meaning."

Coincidentally, Fu Yan's stomach bulged a bit, as if the baby raised his little feet in response to his father.

Fu Yan: "Oh! The baby kicked me, he must have heard it!"

Xiao Lie eased his anxiety, smiled and stroked the area on her stomach: "It's fine if the baby hears it, we won't kick mother!"

Fu Yan was half lying down, watching their father and son interact gently.

Xiao Lie got up and got out of bed, and took two pieces of paper over.

The corners of the paper have been wrinkled and rolled, presumably because they are often flipped through.

Xiao Lie sat back beside Fu Yan again, and showed her the paper.

"I've thought about it, but I haven't decided yet."

Fu Yan took it curiously: "Let me see."

A lot of words were neatly written on the two sheets of paper, one with a strong meaning suitable for a boy's name, and the other with a softer meaning.

"Xiao An, Xiao Yun, Xiao Zheng, Xiao Minghong..."

"Xiao Bei, Xiao Jun, Xiao Ying, Xiao Xiangyi..."

They are all words with good meanings, Xiao Lie pointed to them one by one to explain where they came from and what their meanings are.

Listening to his words, Fu Yan knew how much effort Xiao Lie had contained in these two thin pieces of paper.

"A Yan, which one do you want to choose?" Xiao Lie looked at her expectantly after explaining one by one.

These are all carefully selected and preserved by him. He sees that this one is suitable and that one he likes. He really doesn't know how to choose, so he hasn't made a decision until today.

Fu Yan looked at these words very well, if she was asked to choose, she would not be able to choose for a while.

Seeing Xiao Lie's expectant gaze, Fu Yan yawned lazily: "Oh, I'm so sleepy all of a sudden...Brother Alie, I'm going to sleep."

Fu Yan stuffed the two pieces of paper back into Xiao Lie's hands, buried her face in the quilt and laughed snickeringly: "I think these are all good, I have to work hard to choose one, brother Alie. Time is running out~"

Xiao Lie stared helplessly and connivingly at the little hillock on the bed.

What can he do if his daughter-in-law doesn't care?
Come on, think about it slowly...

After being reminded by Fu Yan, Xiao Lie held a book and looked through the records carefully when he was free.

The rest of the family knew that he was naming the baby, so they couldn't come to see him and give some advice from time to time.

Being busy with things, for a while, the family was not as tense as before.

February 24th is Xiao Lie's 21st birthday, the family didn't have much to do, so they only invited Master Sun Changming over to celebrate.

Fu Yan was inconvenient to move, and Xiao Lie refused to make her work too hard.

For Xiao Lie's birthday this time, Fu Yan only personally prepared a set of underwear, which was soft and comfortable.It took her two or three months to make it slowly.

In addition, Shi Yang was asked to help her pick out a few military books from the bookstore.

I heard Xiao Lie say that his master taught him martial arts to hunt before, and he also mentioned some stories in the military book.Xiao Lie also told the baby the story of the wise plan that he remembered.

Seeing that he was interested, Fu Yan thought about buying two copies for him to read.

Brother's birthday made Xiao Jian think of the delicious hot pot meal on his birthday, so she proposed to eat hot pot this time.

Xiao Jian looked at them helplessly, as if she hadn't eaten for a long time.

In fact, since that time, the family has occasionally eaten it once or twice.

Seeing his small appearance, Fu Yan agreed with a funny face.

"Grandma Shi! My sister-in-law said we'll have hot pot tonight, and I'll help you!" As soon as Fu Yan agreed, Xiao Jianjian ran to the kitchen to tell Granny Shi.

"I know, Granny Shi is ready now!"

For dinner, I only dipped a little bit of Fu Yan in the spicy pot, and the bone soup made by Grandma Shi became more and more delicious.

Today's birthday, everyone reunited to celebrate, Xiao Lie was also happy, and drank some wine with Master to cheer up the fun.

Even Shi Yang was taken to drink by them.

Shi Yang only tried two sips, his face flushed and he coughed, and he quickly drank a big bowl of tea.

Sun Changming smiled heartily: "You can't do it, you still have to practice!"

After the lively dinner was over, Sun Changming was left by them to live with Xiao Jian.

Sun Changming nodded and hugged Xiao Jian: "Then I'll take Ah Jian to wash up."

On the branches of the moon, in the quiet courtyard of the Xiao family, there was a sudden cry of pain.

Fu Yan grabbed the quilt and woke up with a stomachache.

As soon as she made a sound, Xiao Lie woke up startled.

"A Yan, what's wrong?"

"Hoo hoo... Brother Alie, I... have a stomachache."

Seeing her crying out in pain, Xiao Lie immediately sat up and lifted the quilt.

The quilt under Fu Yan was already soaked.

Amniotic fluid broke...

I'm going to give birth!
Xiao Lie was at a loss, he forced himself to calm down with red eyes.

Ah Yan is still in pain, he can't be messed up, he wants... yes!Shout out!Please be careful!
Xiao Lie covered her again with the quilt, hugged Fu Yan and touched her forehead, said in a low voice, "Ah Yan, don't be afraid, I'll call someone right away. Don't be afraid!"

"Huh...Okay, let's go."

Xiao Lie stepped on the cold ground without shoes, ran out to open the door and shouted: "Grandma Shi! Ah Yan is about to give birth! I'll go ask for Mrs. Wen, Ayang, go and ask for the doctor!"
