Chapter 1150: Chapter 1150: Three Brothers with Three Different Surnames
Old Master Gu looked at the photos sent over by Lu Yichen, unable to suppress the smile on his face, “Qiaoqiao really knows how to give birth. Each and every one of them grows up so well, you just can’t get enough of looking at them.”
Lu Yichen’s lips remained turned up in a smile, “Yanyan and Yueyue have grown quite a bit, they’re getting prettier by the day.”
Old Master Gu thought to himself, if it weren’t for the vast ocean that lay between them, he would really like to go and see his great-grandsons and granddaughters.
Lu Yichen looked up and saw something peculiar in his grandfather’s eyes, “Grandpa, my second uncle and his wife are going over in a few days. They will stay there until after New Year’s before they return. Do you want to go with them?”
A glint flashed in Old Master Gu’s eyes, but moments later he waved his hand, “No, I’ll wait for them to come back.”
As they were speaking, the phone rang, “Hello, who is this?”
“Dad, it’s me, Kai Rong.”
“Kai Rong, what’s wrong with your voice? Are you sick?”
“Dad, Danli is pregnant.”
“What did you say? Say that again.”
“Dad, Danli really is pregnant. She’s just become two months pregnant. We planned to tell you after three months, but I just couldn’t keep it in. Dad, I’m really going to be a father. You’re going to be a grandfather.”
Hearing this, Old Master Gu shared in his son’s excitement, somewhat emotionally said, “How is Danli’s health? She is an older expectant mother now, she needs to take extra care.”
“Dad, she’s in good health. The morning sickness isn’t too severe, and I will take good care of her.”
“Good, good, good. It’s really a blessing from heaven, Qiaoqiao truly is the lucky star of our family.”
“Dad, you’re right about that. By the way, have you decided on names for the triplets yet?”
Hearing his son’s question, Old Master Gu laughed heartily, “Yes, they’re decided. The third one named Gu Hongrui, the fourth Gu Hongye, and the fifth Lu Hongyu. What do you think?”
“Not bad, they sound grand. When Danli has the baby, don’t forget to pick a nice name.”
“Sure, I’ll get right on it. You can pick when you’re ready.”
After hanging up the phone, Old Master Gu still felt a bit incredulous and slapped his thigh hard, “Seems like it’s real.”
Then he looked at Lu Yichen, “Your uncle just said your aunt is pregnant, right?”
Lu Yichen nodded with a smile, “Grandpa, you heard correctly, she is indeed pregnant.”
Old Master Gu muttered, “Now your grandmother can truly rest easy.”
Thinking of something, he looked up and said, “Book me a ticket to Chongqing. I want to see your grandmother. With all these happy events, I really need to talk to her and share the joy. The Gu family’s lineage is thriving.”
Suddenly he hesitated, thinking of something, then turned to Lu Yichen, “Yichen, is it okay for the fourth child to carry on the Huang family name?”
Lu Yichen was momentarily stunned but quickly responded, “I’ll have to discuss it with Luo Qiao.”
Checking the time, Old Master Gu said, “Call her now to discuss; I’ll wait here for the news.”
Lu Yichen hadn’t expected his grandfather to be so insistent, but he still took the phone, “Hello, Qiaoqiao, are you up?”
Luo Qiao was standing in front of the window, “It started snowing here today.”
“Is it cold? Dress warmly, and if it’s too cold, don’t send Yanyan and Yueyue to kindergarten.”
“Mhm, I know. The snow just started falling. If it gets heavy, I’ll keep them at home.”
After a pause, Lu Yichen continued, “Qiaoqiao, there’s something I want to discuss with you.”
Luo Qiao sensed the seriousness in his voice and replied, “What is it? Go ahead.”
“Grandpa suggested letting the fourth child carry on the Huang family name, and he wanted to know if you agree.”
This was something Luo Qiao had never considered; it was one thing for the children to take the Gu surname, but having three sons with three different surnames was really…
After a moment of silence, Luo Qiao spoke, “Okay, since Grandpa has brought it up, let’s fulfill his wish. After all, no matter the surname, they are still our sons. It’s just that having three sons with three different surnames might be quite unique in the whole country.”
And so, the fourth child, Gu Hongye, became Huang Hongye, and the three brothers each carried out their mission.
