After hearing this, Liu Ying's expression changed, and she rubbed her crutch and turned away.
Xue Ling was busy thinking of a name for the child, but he didn't realize that the old man's expression had already changed.
Xue's mother didn't notice, so she said to herself: "I don't know if I can name it with a single word now. Think of a few words quickly, and when Yangyang and his wife come back, you can discuss it with them. They are the parents, it's their turn
Just make the decision and nod."
"That's right." Xue Ling nodded: "I'm just making a suggestion. Their parents have to make the choice."
Mother Xue looked at the sleeping little one and urged: "Take her back to the room to sleep. The autumn wind has begun to blow outside, so don't take her out."
"I know." Xue Ling obeyed.
Liu Yingze stood up thoughtfully and walked toward the gate with a cane.
Xue's mother thought she was going for a walk and shouted: "Sister Ying, do you want me to accompany you?"
"No, no, no," Liu Ying whispered absently, "I'll wait for Ayuan outside and walk around."
The old man waited beside the garage for more than half an hour before Cheng Tianyuan's luxury car arrived.
"Mom, why are you standing at the door of the garage?" Cheng Tianyuan slammed the car door and asked in confusion: "Who are you waiting for?"
Liu Ying frowned and lowered her voice: "Waiting for you."
Seeing her worried look, Cheng Tianyuan ignored her briefcase and hurriedly stepped forward holding the keys.
"Mom, what are you waiting for me to do? Come on, let's go back to the living room and talk."
Liu Ying was startled and hurriedly stopped.
"Don't... you can't go over there and talk. Ayuan, just the two of us, don't let anyone else know."
Cheng Tianyuan asked funnyly: "What's wrong? You're still mysterious? Mom, why do you look so worried?"
"Don't laugh." Liu Ying glared at him and whispered: "I'm asking you something very important. You have to answer me properly."
Cheng Tianyuan didn't dare to laugh and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, mom, tell me."
Liu Ying turned her head and looked around a few times before lowering her voice and asking: "Yangyang's two children also have the surname Xue? Right?"
Cheng Tianyuan was stunned for a moment and suddenly guessed the purpose of the old man's question.
"Mom, Yang Yang's surname is Xue, so naturally his child should also be surnamed Xue."
When Liu Ying heard this, her expression became even worse.
"Why is his surname still Xue? When he was born, he agreed to give Lingling the surname 'Xue', but he didn't say at all that his child would have to take the surname 'Xue', right?"
Cheng Tianyuan chuckled helplessly: "Mom, Xue Yang's surname is 'Xue'. This was agreed upon at the beginning. He had just been born at that time, how could we talk about such a long-term matter."
"It's enough that his surname is Xue." Liu Ying hesitated: "In the future, my grandson will have to take your surname...Cheng. They are all descendants of our old Cheng family. This is a fact!"
Cheng Tianyuan was slightly embarrassed and whispered: "Mom, these have been agreed upon, how can we change our minds now? We have Ran Ran and the third child, and their children will be named Cheng from now on. The fourth child's surname will be Xue, but if she gets married, the child will not
Maybe they will follow her surname. The only one left in the Lingling family with the surname Xue Yang is 'Xue', how can we let them follow her surname 'Cheng' again."
"Why can't you?" Liu Ying whispered with red eyes: "The second child's surname was 'Xue', and I was reluctant at first. Your dad was still there at the time, and he nodded in agreement. I also felt sorry for Ling Ling's hard work.
, she was the only daughter in her family, so she didn’t dare to say she didn’t agree, so in the end she had to agree. I only agreed to let Yang Yang’s surname be Xue, but I didn’t promise that my grandson would also have the same surname for the rest of his life!”
"Mom, you can't say that." Cheng Tianyuan shook his head helplessly and lowered his voice: "Yangyang's surname is 'Xue', and his children will naturally also have the surname 'Xue'. Lingling is the only daughter in her family. If we don't agree with Yang Yang's
If the child takes his surname, then Lingling's family will have no heirs. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are very kind to us. They are still alive, how can I say such a thing."
Liu Ying burst into tears and explained: "I didn't say that far, just Yangyang. What? If that's the case, wouldn't our family be missing another lineage?"
"No less." Cheng Tianyuan frowned and said: "Yangyang is also our child, so you can't say that. Mom, I am the only male in our family. I will have two children to inherit, which can be regarded as spreading."
Liu Ying became angry unknowingly and said harshly: "It's all your dad's fault! When I told him that I couldn't agree, he didn't listen! Even if he didn't mention it, the old Xue family wouldn't dare to take the initiative to make such a request!"
"What are you talking about!" Cheng Tianyuan quickly made a hissing gesture and whispered: "Mom, you can't be too excited, and don't be angry."
Liu Ying poked her crutch and said: "How can I not be angry! This is our family's great-grandchild, the first great-grandchild - but they have to follow Lingling's surname of 'Xue'?! How can that be done!"
Cheng Tianyuan was a little irritated and advised: "Mom, we shouldn't be too greedy in life and work. Since it was agreed upon at the beginning, then it should be as promised. Now that it has changed at the last minute, how can I say anything?"
"If you can't speak, then I'll go." Liu Ying said angrily: "I told Lingling directly that Yangyang can share the same surname as them, but not the great-grandchildren! I'm not greedy, they are!"
"No!" Cheng Tianyuan refused without thinking, holding down the old man's hand, "Mom, don't be angry, and don't speak impulsively."
If you mention this now, wouldn't it go straight to the heart of your father-in-law and mother-in-law?
Not only the father-in-law and mother-in-law, but also Lingling will be very sad.
"Mom, you shouldn't be so greedy." Cheng Tianyuan frowned and persuaded: "I am the only male in this generation in the family. It is good enough that I can have the eldest and third eldest son to pass on the 'Cheng' surname. They will have two children in the future.
Three children, four or five together, our lineage quickly flourished. Besides, we haven’t returned to Chengjia Village for so many years. Some backward old ideas should be abandoned as soon as they should be abandoned, and we should not always remember them. Old traditions
Why do you need so much for that? Living a good life is the important thing, it doesn’t matter what your last name is. You should enjoy your old age and mind your own business."
"What?" Liu Ying was really angry now and shouted angrily: "This is called idleness? This is a big deal for our old Cheng family! It doesn't matter what your last name is?! What are you talking about?! Are you crazy?!"
Cheng Tianyuan was startled and quickly changed his words: "Mom, I didn't mean that. Don't get me wrong."
"I don't misunderstand!" Liu Ying slapped his leg with a cane and said harshly: "What nonsense are you talking about! Listen to yourself! Listen to yourself! I don't care, I don't agree with it anyway! This can't be done
Do it!”
Cheng Tianyuan didn't dare to hide, he stood upright and couldn't help coaxing: "Okay, okay, don't get excited after the beating. If you want to be beaten or scolded, it's up to you. Mom, is it okay? Don't beat me? We have something to say.
ah."
"I've said it all!" Liu Ying shouted angrily: "Did you hear it?! Why didn't you listen?! I warned you! I can agree to other things, but not this matter!"
