1175 Naming the Children

“But it’s so uncomfortable here. I eat the same tasteless food every day. I want to eat spicy food! I want to eat something with strong flavors! I don’t want to eat such bland food anymore! If I eat any more of this, I’m going to turn into a rabbit!” Qiao Mei complained.

“If you eat whatever you want, the surgical wound on your stomach will feel uncomfortable. Don’t cry out in pain next time. Also, you won’t look good if it leaves a scar,” Feng Hua said, trying to scare her.

Although Qiao Mei could take her time to apply the medicinal wine on herself when she got home, just like how she treated Zhang Miao’s wound back then, she could not tell Feng Hua about this. Even if she did, Feng Hua would not believe her.

Ever since Qiao Mei got into an accident right under Feng Hua’s nose, Feng Hua had been fully focused every day. She took care of Qiao Mei wholeheartedly and did not leave Qiao Mei’s side at all. Even when Qiao Mei went to the toilet, she would stand beside Qiao Mei with her back facing Qiao Mei to make sure that Qiao Mei was safe.

Even when Qiao Mei was sleeping, Feng Hua would keep an eye on her and did not dare to relax at all. During this period of time, Qiao Mei’s complexion had become much more rosy after giving birth, but Feng Hua had lost a lot of weight.

“Sister Feng, you’re really too worried about me. It’s been a long time since you returned home, right? Get my grandfather’s helper to come and take care of me for a couple of days. You should go home and rest. Otherwise, if you keep working so hard, I’m afraid that you’ll collapse from fatigue,” Qiao Mei said with heartache.

Feng Hua firmly objected to what Qiao Mei said. Even after Qiao Mei was discharged and they all returned to Qiao Mei’s house, she would stay by Qiao Mei’s side and not let any villain do anything bad again. She must protect Qiao Mei and the two children well.

“I’m fine… Have you thought about the children’s names? The two children don’t have names yet!” Feng Hua said.

For the past two days, they had been addressing the children as “elder brother” and “younger sister”. The children did not even have nicknames and they were simply being addressed by their birth order.

“That’s right! I haven’t asked my grandfathers yet! I wonder if the two of them are up already,” Qiao Mei said.

Qiao Qiang and Xia Jun had been thinking about the children’s names. What Qiao Qiang wanted was for Xia Jun to name the boy and for himself to name the girl. The two of them would then ask for each other’s opinion.

That was the crux of the problem! They both did not like any name the other person came up with.

“I want to name the boy Xia Guo! Why don’t you agree! What’s wrong with this name!” Xia Jun said unhappily.

“Can’t you come up with a better name? What kind of lousy idea is this! Think again!” Qiao Qiang roared.

Xia Jun could not hold back his bad temper anymore. He smacked the table and shouted, “Do you think the name you come up with is any good! What kind of names are Xia Juan and Xia Yan! Those are the names of those old women who live in the alley! They’re not even half as good as what I come up with!”

“You didn’t even go to school and you still have the cheek to criticize me! At least I went to a private school!” Qiao Qiang roared.

“That private school of yours is nothing! The names you come up with are not even as nice as the names of the trash collectors on the streets! Think again! Don’t say so much useless stuff!” Xia Jun waved his hand and said impatiently.

When Feng Hua saw that there was an argument next door again, she quickly came back to report to Qiao Mei and told her everything in detail. After Qiao Mei heard the names, her first thought was that the names the two old men came up with were not even half as good as what Xia Zhe had in mind previously!

Sigh… She should think of a way on her own.

After thinking for a long time, Qiao Mei muttered to herself, “Xia Fan… Xia Xing…”

“What?” Feng Hua looked at Qiao Mei in confusion.

“Yes! Let’s name them Xia Fan and Xia Xing! Sister Feng, what do you think of these two names?” Qiao Mei looked at Feng Hua expectantly.

Feng Hua was not educated, but she knew that these two names sounded cultured. They were different from the names she had come across in the village and seemed to be nice names.

“Not bad, not bad. But what does it mean?” Feng Hua asked.

Qiao Mei looked out of the window and said, “I hope these two children will be as dazzling as the stars in the sky. I also hope that the two of them will always support each other.”

“That’s a very good meaning! Do you want me to go and tell the old masters now?” Feng Hua said excitedly.

“Pass this message to them. ‘Gather like a ball of fire, scatter like a sky full of stars’. Just say it like this,” Qiao Mei said with a faint smile. She felt that Qiao Qiang would understand what she meant.

“Sure, sure, sure! I’ll go tell them the good news now and make them happy!” With that, Feng Hua ran to the ward next door.
