Chapter 176 Nanzhi
"Our fat girl is only four years old. What big thing can happen to her? The old man is joking."
"Did the little girl have a weak body since she was born and didn't get better until she was two years old?"
After listening to the old man's words, Mother Lin's face that had been smiling just now suddenly turned a little pale.
When I was pregnant with Fatty, I didn't raise her well. As a result, she was as thin as a kitten when she was born. Later, when she grew up, the child acted like a fool. She didn't respond no matter how I called her, and only said "..." every day. Staring straight ahead, he neither cried nor fussed, and only grunted when he was hungry.
Until she was two years old, one day she suddenly called her "Aniang".
After that day, Fatty seemed to become a normal little baby.
But only the villagers knew about this, so how did this old gentleman know about it?
"You, you must have asked the people in the village to find out." Lin Yicheng stammered.
This old man must have come to our house to cheat money!
"Your name is Dacheng, also known as Yicheng. You are eight and a half years old. Last time, you secretly cut your sister's pigtails and lied to her that a goblin had stolen them, right? You also like the girl from the Chen family at the west end of the village. Is everything okay? You will help others feed the donkeys, right?"
The old man chuckled and said two things in a row. He still didn't believe it. If this kid didn't get spanked today, he would sleep upside down!
Lin Shougui had also sobered up some wine at this time. Listening to the old man talking more and more enthusiastically, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at his son.
"Is what the old gentleman said true? It was you who cut off Fat Ya's braids last time? I asked her why she cried from time to time in those days."
Lin Yicheng was about to cry but didn't have any tears. He wanted to run but didn't dare to run now. He could only hesitate and couldn't speak.
Seeing him like this, Mother Lin and Lin Shougui also understood that the child's behavior meant that they were right!
"Then I don't know what the old gentleman wants to do with our fat girl."
"Change the name."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Shougui and his wife looked at each other.
This all emphasizes the saying that a bad name will make a living. Generally, children will not be given a good name before they are ten years old, for fear that the child will not be able to control his good fortune.
There are so many people in the village that they just keep calling her by her nickname. When the girl is old enough to have hairpins, she then asks the elders or village elders to give her a name.
Fat Girl's name was thought up by her husband-in-law for many days, just so that she could grow up into a fat little girl according to the name.
Now it was suddenly necessary to change Fat Ya's name, and the couple were hesitant.
After all, this old gentleman can only be regarded as an outsider, and it would be awkward to name his daughter.
"This girl will look good after changing her name. She is blessed with opportunities. If she doesn't change her name, her luck and opportunities will be suppressed."
After hearing him say that her daughter would look good after changing her name, Mother Lin immediately cheered up.
"I wonder what the old gentleman wants to name our daughter?"
"Nanzhi."
The old man looked at the fat and white girl opposite with a smile in his eyes.
"Nanzhi...Lin Nanzhi..."
Mother Lin muttered a few words and thought it was good, at least better than the one named Cuihua Jinlan. Most girls in the village were named Cuihua Cuilan Jinlan, and you would meet two or three as soon as you left home.
"I wonder what the name means?"
"Don't say it." The old man's face was so deep that it made Mother Lin feel that she was talking too much.
After finishing the meal, Mother Lin asked her two sons to lead the old man to the cleaned guest room, while she took Fat Ya and Lin Shougui inside.
"What do you think of this name?"
Lin Shougui curled his lips, looking unhappy.
"Why change the name? Doesn't Fat Ya Fat Ya sound nice? As soon as I hear this name, I know that our daughter is fat and fat, how happy she is."
Mother Lin rolled her eyes at him and didn't bother to ask him again. She just lowered her head and pinched her daughter's face.
"Fat Ya, tell grandma, do you want to change your name?"
The little girl patted her head, then raised her little face and looked at her mother-in-law: "What's your name"
"My name is Nanzhi, do you like it?"
"Nanzhi..."
The little girl muttered something, and suddenly said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I want to call her Nanzhi"
In her dream, there was a sister named Nanzhi! Don't call her Fat Ya!
"Okay, let's call her Nanzhi from now on." After saying that, Mother Lin kissed the little girl's cheek again.
Lin Shougui became a little unhappy when he realized that the mother and daughter had not asked him for his opinion at all. "Why does he just do whatever he says? He is not the elder in the family, so why is it his turn to name my daughter?"
He spoke angrily, as if he had completely forgotten who brought the old man in.
Early the next morning, the three children of the Lin family were just about to ask the old man for breakfast when they saw him fully dressed and standing at the door waiting for them.
"Grandpa, grandma said it's time to eat." The little girl stood in front of her two brothers and looked up at the old man.
Lin Yicheng touched his still aching butt and said nothing. It was because he complained last night that he was spanked!
Lin Ercheng also covered his butt and said nothing, but he didn't stand next to his eldest brother as usual.
When the eldest brother was spanked last night, he gave himself up too! As a result, he was beaten several times!
Looking at the two brothers, the old man secretly laughed in his heart. Can he still handle the two little babies?
"I won't eat at your house. There was so much trouble yesterday."
After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands, but didn't want to hear the little girl speak again: "Then, grandpa, what can you thank me for?"
Seeing the little girl looking at him expectantly, the old man's face darkened. Why is this little girl a money addict?
Seeing that he didn't speak, the fat girl was about to speak when she saw the old man raising his hand, and the next thing he heard was the sound of seeds in his head thumping three times.
"Consider this a thank you gift." After the old man said that, he walked out of the Lin family yard without looking back.
By the time he realized that he had been knocked on the head, the old man had long since disappeared.
"Wow--"
The old man didn't strike hard, but the little girl covered her forehead and cried all the way.
Mother Lin, who was busy in the kitchen, saw her daughter coming back crying and her hands stopped for a moment, and she quickly put down the spatula and went to look at her daughter.
"Daughter, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you? Tell grandma quickly!" Mother Lin realized after asking. Didn't she just ask the three children to ask the old man for breakfast?
Why is my daughter coming back crying now?
"That grandpa, he, he hit me on the head!" The little girl squirmed for a long time before saying this.
"Hit you on the head?" Mother Lin was startled, why would this old gentleman hit someone?
"What about the other guy? Go ask him why he hit you on the head."
"He, he's gone——"
The little girl puckered her lips and was about to cry, but Mother Lin was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
I'm afraid the old gentleman wasn't taking revenge for his daughter asking for his money yesterday.
Lin Shougui was unwilling to change Fat Ya's name at first, but he became even more reluctant when he heard that the old man knocked his daughter on the head before leaving.
