Chapter 59: My full name is Miaomiao, my nickname is Debao
"The name..."
When talking about naming, Tao Huilan couldn't help but blush, and her mind immediately thought of the words He Daqing said to her when he hugged her that night.
Something like repaying a favor...
"These past few days, I've always dreamed of a body of water bubbling up. Why not call her Miaomiao? Give everyone this name, regardless of whether they're boys or girls. Don't be partial!"
Tao Huilan thought for a moment, made up a reason, and said to Yi Zhonghai seriously.
After all, this is his and He Daqing's child, so he naturally has to listen to He Daqing when it comes to naming.
Maybe, whenever I call Miaomiao in the future, He Daqing next door will be able to remember whose child this is.
“Miaomiao…”
Yi Zhonghai was actually just asking casually because he wanted to name the child himself. However, his wife had finally gotten pregnant and she also dreamed of water, so Miaomiao was indeed a good name.
What's more, my name contains the character "Hai", so it's not bad to have a son or daughter with the character "Miao" in his or her name!
"Okay, then call me Yi Miao!"
Yi Zhonghai directly affirmed the name given by Tao Huilan.
"But it's not easy for us to have a child after so many years. This is a treasure sent to us by God."
Yi Zhonghai looked at Tao Huilan and said with a smile,
"Why not call him Miaomiao? And let's call him Debao. I want him to be a good person with high moral standards and also our treasure. What do you think?"
"I'll listen to you! It's a good name!"
Tao Huilan nodded perfunctorily. Anyway, the name had been decided, so she could give it any nickname she wanted. Besides, from this nickname, it was clear that Yi Zhonghai loved the child. When she was born, she would definitely be doted on by Yi Zhonghai.
"Okay, go cook, I'm hungry!"
Tao Huilan rolled her eyes at Yi Zhonghai, her face full of pride.
For so many years, because I couldn't have a child, I had to take care of Yi Zhonghai every day, and even accompanied Yi Zhonghai to drink various Chinese medicines. Now that I have a child, he is the eldest in the family, and I can finally enjoy a few days of happiness.
"No problem, I'll make it for you right away! I'll buy some delicious food and make soup for you tomorrow!"
Yi Zhonghai slapped his head and was so happy that he didn't have any food to eat when he got home from get off work.
Yes, Tao Huilan is finally pregnant now, and there can't be any accidents. Of course, Yi Zhonghai will be responsible for the small matter of cooking.
Soon, Yi Zhonghai cooked millet porridge, baked two pancakes, and even fried two eggs for his wife. The couple celebrated well.
Originally, Yi Zhonghai had planned to have another go at night, but when he thought of his pregnant wife, he had no choice but to endure it.
Well, the world is big, but children are the biggest!
The next day, Yi Zhonghai was full of energy. He finished his work at the steel mill early and went straight to a nearby store after work. He bought two bottles of Erguotou, some peanuts, melon seeds, and some nourishing ingredients.
The ingredients are prepared to nourish Tao Huilan's body. Pregnancy is not easy, and a lot of blood and energy are consumed every day, so nourishment is necessary.
The Erguotou was naturally given to He Daqing.
"Brother He, she's pregnant! My wife is finally pregnant!"
Yi Zhonghai came to He Daqing's house with two bottles of Erguotou and said excitedly,
"Thanks to your help this time, otherwise, I might have been a wretched family in this life. Take these two bottles of wine, and if you need anything in the future, feel free to tell me!"
Looking at Yi Zhonghai who was as happy as a little child, He Daqing couldn't help but feel relieved for a moment.
It was worth it that I sowed seeds with such enthusiasm for so many days, and now, they are finally bearing fruit.
"Old Yi, this is your blessing!"
He Daqing patted Yi Zhonghai on the shoulder and said with a smile,
"Since you are pregnant, you should take good care of Ren Huilan. It's not easy to be pregnant, you know?"
"I know, of course I know!"
Yi Zhonghai smiled and nodded repeatedly.
"My Huairu is pregnant too, so it can be considered as good luck in pairs. We are celebrating together!"
He Daqing grinned.
"Yes, congratulations."
Yi Zhonghai also smiled and offered his blessings. The two chatted for a few more words, and then Yi Zhonghai stood up and said goodbye.
They have been married for so many years but still have no children, and there are many people in the yard gossiping about their family.
Now that Huilan has a child, Yi Zhonghai has a successor. Naturally, he has to spread the news everywhere and tell everyone that I, Yi Zhonghai, am not extinct!
So, Yi Zhonghai took peanuts and melon seeds and distributed them door to door starting from the backyard.
"Lao Xu, my Huilan is pregnant now. Come, come, have some peanuts and sunflower seeds. Damao, come, have some!"
"Liu Haizhong, I have a child hahaha, I'll give you some peanuts and sunflower seeds. Oh, Haizhong, it's not easy to have a child, Guangqi and Guangtian are still young, and you have the heart to beat them. Come on, Guangqi and Guangtian, stop crying and eat some peanuts and sunflower seeds!"
When he went to the backyard, he happened to see Liu Haizhong educating his son, so Yi Zhonghai stopped him directly.
He didn't have any children before, and he was jealous of Liu Haizhong because he didn't even have a child, but Liu Haizhong taught his son a lesson casually, so he couldn't help but add fuel to the fire and deliberately fan the flames.
But now it's different.
I am a father now, and I finally have a child, so I must spoil him well.
"Come here, sister-in-law, my Huilan is pregnant. Here are some peanuts and sunflower seeds. I wish you guys will have a baby soon!"
After mediating the conflict in the backyard, Yi Zhonghai went to Jia Zhang's house opposite and gave them two handfuls of peanuts and melon seeds.
Well, although they already have a son like Dongxu, after all, Xu Youliang is getting married for the first time, and Jia Zhang is only in her thirties. They still have a chance to have children, and it is also good to share in the family's happiness.
"Oh, you're pregnant? Congratulations!"
Jia Zhang grinned, but her smile was uglier than crying.
Look at the family next door who has lost all their lives, but my son Dongxu looks like he has lost his soul every day and has no wife. As for Xu Youliang? There are thunder and lightning every night but no rain. God knows when he will have a child.
When she thought of this, Jia Zhang felt mixed emotions.
No, the New Year is coming soon, I have to find a matchmaker to find a wife for Dongxu. I can't let him stay depressed like this.
She still doesn't believe that Jia Dongxu can't find a wife!
As Yi Zhonghai shared his joy from house to house, the entire courtyard knew that Yi Zhonghai had become a father.
"This old Yi is amazing. After so many years of marriage, there is finally some movement."
"The sun rises from the west. How many times has Yi Zhonghai plowed the land?"
"Look how happy Old Yi is, he's afraid that people won't know he's a father now!"
A cacophony of discussions also broke out one after another.
Yi Zhonghai was immersed in people's congratulations, his face full of happiness. With his flat head, he was exposed to the cold wind, but he didn't feel cold at all, as if he was wearing a hat on his head, feeling warm.
