“Grandpa.” Chen Meng’er was quite surprised to see Elder Liu and the others.
Ever since she was discharged from the hospital, the three old men had not shown their faces many times in order to not disturb her rest. Chen Meng’er often heard the voices of the three old men hugging her three little babies and coaxing them.
“Why are you here? Do the babies need milk?” Chen Meng’er asked subconsciously. However, she thought that something was wrong. These three little guys had just finished drinking milk, and they were carried away to sleep by their great-grandmothers.
“No, they have already been put to sleep. The three of us, seeing that you haven’t slept, came to discuss something with you.” Elder Liu was always the leader.
“What is it?” Chen Meng’er asked curiously. “The matter of the full-moon banquet? Didn’t I already tell you all about it? I’ll leave this matter to you, Grandpa. You can do whatever you want.”
Speaking of this matter, Chen Meng’er originally didn’t plan to hold a grand full-moon banquet for the children. She didn’t like to be too high-profile, but the old men had gotten great-grandchildren. They were eager to let everyone know about this matter.
Therefore, the old men wanted to hold a big banquet.
Chen Meng’er was a filial child. After discussing with Yuwen Jing, she decided that this matter would be handled by the old men as they saw fit.
“It’s not this matter,” Elder Qu waved his hand and said.
The three old men had already thought about this matter. They wouldn’t bother Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing. In any case, it was rare for them to want to be high-profile. Who would stop them from doing so?
“Then what’s the matter?” Yuwen Jing could not help but ask.
“It’s about their names. They are already two weeks old, and their names have not been decided yet,” Yuwen Hou said.
“Didn’t we agree long ago? Grandpa, you can each choose a name for one child.” Before Chen Meng’er gave birth, this matter had already been settled.
Choosing a name was never something that could be carelessly done.
Originally, the choice of a name was decided by the elders in the family. Therefore, the names of these three babies were naturally decided by the three old men.
Moreover, Chen Meng’er had already discussed this matter with Yuwen Jing and reached an agreement.
Chen Ping had full faith in Elder Liu and the others to name his grandchildren. However, Qu Yaobing was stubborn and wanted to pick a few names.
“Grandpa, you came to look for Jing and me today. It seems that you have already thought of some names, right?” Chen Meng’er asked.
“Yes, that’s why we are here. You can also express your opinions,” Elder Liu said.
“However, I think the names we chose are pretty good.” Elder Qu was hinting that they were very satisfied with the names they chose.
Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing exchanged a look. They both understood that their three children’s names had probably been decided. It was probably useless even if they wanted to give their opinions.
Chen Meng’er said silently in her heart, “Babies, if you don’t like your names in the future, you can’t blame your parents. You can only blame your bad luck for letting your three grandfathers pick these names. But don’t worry, your parents will give you a pleasant nickname.”
“The eldest will have my surname, the second will have Elder Qu’s surname, and the little princess will have Elder Liu’s surname.” Yuwen Hou said as he glared at Elder Liu with dissatisfaction.
In order to have the right to name the youngest, the three old masters almost fought. In the end, the two old ladies were the judges and said that they would draw lots to decide. Elder Liu’s luck was extremely good. He won the draw.
At that time, Elder Liu was so happy that he was about to jump up and down. Elder Qu and Yuwen Hou were so angry that they grit their teeth.
However, one had to admit defeat. They could only watch the little princess get Elder Liu’s surname.
Chen Meng’er did not expect that her babies would not carry her name. This made Chen Meng’er quite upset. She was the one who gave birth to them.
However, she could only protest in her heart. She would not say it out loud.
She was the one who asked them to name her children. She could not go back on her word.
“Do as you see fit.” That was all Chen Meng’er could say.
Yuwen Jing did not care about their surnames. However, when the elders of the Buyano family found out, they would probably pitch a fit. Unfortunately, they did not know what had happened yet.
“The eldest is called Yuwen Xichen, the second is Qu Xilei, and the little princess is Liu Xiyi. What do you think?” It was not easy to choose their names. They kept arguing for hours.
In any case, without Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing knowing, the three elders had fought a lot over these names.
In the end, Elder Liu won the verbal battle with Elder Qu and Marquis Yuwen with a slight advantage.
The names of the three little babies were also decided.
They asked Chen Meng’er what she thought. Chen Meng’er felt that the simpler the name, the better. However, Chen Meng’er did not dare say this to her grandfathers. She could only nod and say, “Very good, not bad.”
“In that case, the names of the little babies are decided.”
