Mo Qishen nodded, "Yes, it’s the poem by Tang Taizong, ’Smoke deep, distant shores hidden’. This way, the nas of our family of five are all included in it."
The na sounds nice, but unfortunately, it’s completely unusable.
Three darling daughters, how could they possibly use this boy’s na?
Ni Yang said, "This na isn’t bad, it has a lot of aning."
Li Ronghua laughed and said, "Scholarly types are different, unlike us. We gave our child an ordinary na. When we visited relatives in our hotown this year, we found out that three of our relatives’ children share the sa na as Chaochao!"
Li Ronghua and Wu Daming’s child is called Wu Chao.
Ni Yang said, "Sister Ronghua, if you think the na doesn’t sound nice, you can change it! While the child is still young, there’s still ti to change it."
"I want to change it too, but my mother-in-law says that the na’s already in the family genealogy, and changing it might not be good for the child in the future, so I’m hesitating."
Ni Yang said, "The elderly have a point, maybe you shouldn’t change it. The word ’Chao’ is actually quite nice, aning extraordinary and refined."
"Yangyang, hearing you say that makes feel much better."
In the evening, Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui ca to deliver als.
Adelle and Shangguan Xu ca along too.
"Sis, how are you feeling now?" Adelle served a bowl of chicken soup to Ni Yang.
Ni Yang smiled and said, "Just like a normal person, nothing special." Even though triplets could arrive early at any ti, she didn’t feel anything unusual at the mont.
"This chicken soup is quite delicious, who made it?" Ni Yang continued.
Adelle’s eyes lit up, "I made it! How is it, not bad, right?"
With those words, Adelle turned to Shangguan Xu, "Just now, this person was worried that my chicken soup wouldn’t be drinkable!"
Shangguan Xu closed the lid of the thermos with a gentle smile, "If I weren’t directing beside you, would your chicken soup be drinkable?"
Adelle wrinkled her nose at him, "Hmph!"
Shangguan Xu chuckled.
In fact, Ni Yang was quite interested in how things were progressing between those two.
It was obvious that Adelle really liked Shangguan Xu.
And Shangguan Xu was incredibly indulgent towards Adelle.
Yet, the two had never broken through that barrier.
Not sure which part had gone wrong.
Ni Yang thought while drinking chicken soup.
Zhao Yu counted on his fingers, "Today is the eleventh of the first lunar month. School starts on the nineteenth, so I wonder if the three little sisters will be born by the eighteenth."
Ni Yang smiled at Zhao Yu, "How do you know they’re three little sisters?"
"My dad said so!" Zhao Yu continued, "Pretty lady, didn’t you notice? My dad bought all these clothes in pink!"
If Zhao Yu hadn’t ntioned it, Ni Yang really wouldn’t have noticed.
Except for the baby items sent by others, all the baby stuff Mo Qishen had prepared himself was pink.
Pink bottles, pink towels...
Ni Yang slightly raised an eyebrow and looked at Mo Qishen, "Brother Mo, how are you so sure they’re three daughters?"
Ni Yang was a doctor, and she couldn’t even guess whether there were three sons or three daughters in her belly.
Mo Qishen was a bit too confident.
Mo Qishen smiled faintly, "Yangyang, how about we make a bet?"
"Alright, what are we betting?"
Mo Qishen said, "You set the terms of the bet."
Ni Yang thought for a mont, "If they aren’t three daughters, you’ll take over Aunt Zhao’s work and wash dishes for a month."
"Sure, no problem." Mo Qishen continued, "And if you lose?"
Ni Yang said, "If I lose, you can make any request you like."
"Deal."
The reason Mo Qishen was so confident wasn’t only because Ni Yang had craved spicy food throughout her pregnancy, but also because of the shape of the belly.
He’d heard from a midwife with twenty years of experience.
A pointy belly ans it’s a boy.
A round belly ans it’s a girl.
Ni Yang’s belly was very round, definitely three little ’cotton-padded jackets’ (aning daughters)!
Zhao Yu on the side said, "Then I’ll be your witness. If anyone cheats, they’ll be a ’little flower dog’."
"You think your dad is you?!" Mo Qishen tapped Zhao Yu’s head, "Always glib-tongued and cheating!"
"Dad, you’d better not say that about ."
"Hmm?"
Zhao Yu glanced at Mo Qishen, then quickly hid behind Ni Yang, poking his head out and saying, "Because if the upper beam isn’t straight, the lower beam is crooked."
"Zhao Xiaoyu! You look like you need a good talking to again!"
