“Son, remember her . She's the smartest auntie… She's much smarter than your mommy… She's a genius…” Wei Liao teased .
“I'm not that smart anymore . I've gotten a lot stupider after getting pregnant…” Huo Mian said with a smile .
Jiang Xiaowei immediately added, “Me too . I don't know why . Maybe it's because I didn't get anesthesia for natural birth… I just feel like I don't know where I'm going and my memory has gotten worse . From the looks of it, I can't go back to work at the Municipal Public Security Bureau . Maybe I should go bribe Director Gao some time…”
“Oh yeah, where is Gao Ran and his wife?”
“Gao Ran finally took a vacation so he and Lingling went to Tibet,” Huo Mian said with a smile .
“Yeah . She sent me a WeChat message saying that she'll be back tomorrow night and will go to the celebration,” Jiang Xiaowei said .
“Did you guys come up with a name for him yet?”
“Yeah, Weiwei chose already,” Wei Liao said .
“What's he called?” Su Yu asked curiously and came over .
“Wei Yunchu…” Jiang Xiaowei said slowly .
“Wei Yunchu . It's a bit strange for a name . What does it mean?” Su Yu asked with wonder .
Before Jiang Xiaowei could respond, Huo Mian said while cradling the little baby, “Climbing up on a high tower made me remember my sorrows and grieves . Reeds and willow trees were everywhere . The clouds were floating above the river while the sun was setting behind the tower . This rising wind was foreboding the coming storm…” (TL Note: That's an ancient Chinese poetry the name is related to . )
“Such a good name… Yunchu will be a wonder when he grows up…” Huo Mian explained the ancient poem that inspired Jiang Xiaowei's naming for her baby .
Jiang Xiaowei gave Huo Mian a thumbs up . “I don't really admire just anybody but I really admire you . I knew you would know . I loved ancient poems from the Tang dynasty when I was still in college . I did quite a bit of research on them . I especially like this poem called 'East Building of Xianyang City' by Xu Hui . I love the last two lines the most: The clouds were floating above the river while the sun was setting behind the tower . This rising wind was foreboding the coming storm . That was why I came up with the name Wei Yunchu when I saw him . ”
Huo Mian smiled and didn't say much more . She seemed to understand what Jiang Xiaowei was feeling .
“Uh… I don't understand what they're saying…” Tang Chuan hated studying so he was very confused .
“Ordinary people won't understand the conversation of geniuses . You just need to listen,” Wei Liao chuckled .
“Oh yeah, I suddenly recall something . Hey Yu, where's my son's gift?” Wei Liao turned around and looked at Su Yu .
Su Yu took out a key from his pocket and put it on the table .
“Oh damn… A Lamborghini… Su Yu sure threw in a lot of money this time…” Tang Chuan jumped over .
“Don't worry . When you have a son, I'll get you one too…” Su Yu said as he looked at Tang Chuan stilly .
“I knew Su Yu was a generous man . He doesn't need extra work or money…” Tang Chuan praised .
Then, Su Yu's next sentence shook everyone in the room…
“When I have a son, you two can give me a Bugatti each in return…”
Tang Chuan: “God damn…”
Wei Liao: “God damn…”
“A Lamborghini costs three million but a Bugatti was worth over 20 million… Su Yu, you sure know your math…” Wei Liao chuckled .
“All businessmen are mercantile and cunning . ”
“Guys, let's eat first . Let me hug the baby . You guys can go eat,” Mrs . Su came over and said .
“Auntie Su, it's alright . I can do it myself,” Jiang Xiaowei said politely .
“No, no . I love children . It's great to see such a big cute baby… Let me hug him . You guys go eat,” Mrs . Su said . Then she picked up Wei Liao's baby with a gentle smile and love in her eyes and walked towards the living room .
Tang Chuan was in awe when he saw Mrs . Su carrying the baby . He suddenly said, “When Su Yu has his child, then the Su Family will probably be celebrating everyday . Yu, when are you planning to get married and have kids . Don't let Uncle and Auntie Su wait too long…”
Everyone looked at Tang Chuan with slight amusement after he said that .
