Chapter 1178: Chapter 1178: Bai Xue is Pregnant 2

"I’ve never been to Shanghai, so I don’t know the situation, and I’m not clear if there is anyone left," Guan Cheng replied truthfully. "Whenever I have time, I’ll make a trip there. Although I don’t have any feelings for them, they are still my maternal grandparents’ family. As long as they are not like her, we should be able to get along fine. Aside from you all, Ayu and I have no other relatives. It would be nice to have one more family member."

He paused before continuing, "I did hear Granny mention once in passing that my maternal grandfather’s family had an aunt who joined the military when she was young and married a general during the resistance war. I just don’t know if she’s still alive or affected by my grandfather’s family background."

"What’s this aunt’s name?" Feng Qingxue asked.

If she was someone in the military with a bit of status, it would be easy to find out about her.

After thinking for a moment, Guan Cheng answered, "I think her name is Wang Xiangxue, ’Xiang’ and ’Xue’ as in the fragrance of snow. She’s seven years older than her. I’m not sure if she changed her name. I’ve heard that changing names during the war was quite common."

"Oh, it includes the character ’Xue’ in her name. I’ll ask around later," Feng Qingxue felt a sense of kinship upon hearing the character.

"Don’t worry about these things for now, Auntie. Take good care of yourself and leave it to fate," Guan Cheng took it easy and looked down at his little brother, who was fussing, "This little brother needs good care too, he’s much thinner than the other two. What’s his name?"

Holding her youngest son in her arms, Feng Qingxue said, "His formal name is Lu Tianxiu, and his nickname is Zhuangzhuang."

This was a decision made after discussing with Lu Jiang, and it was a nickname chosen from those suggested by the elders.

Their common wish was for their youngest son to eat well, drink well, and grow up healthy and strong.

Ayu came over to look at the sleeping youngest and second youngest, "These two look exactly the same; I can’t tell which one is the third and which one is the fourth. Auntie, which one is Lu Tianwei and which one is Lu Tianying? What are their nicknames?"

"The one with a red string tied around his left wrist is the third, Lu Tianwei, nicknamed Dundun, ’dun’ meaning honest and sincere. The one with a red string on his right wrist is the fourth, formally named Lu Tianying, with the nickname Xiongxiong," Feng Qingxue had a hunch that the troublesome fourth child would be a handful when he grew up, so she changed the imposing and magnificent ’xiong’ to ’bear,’ meaning ’xiong.’

Lu Tianzhi grinned, "Lu Tianjun, Lu Tianzhi, Lu Tianmao, Lu Tianhui, Lu Tianwei, Lu Tianying, and Lu Tianxiu."

"I’m Lu Tianhui!" Fubao exclaimed happily.

"That’s right, our Fubao is Lu Tianhui." Lu Tianzhi took out a wooden carving of a carriage from the cloth bundle. It was obviously made of red sandalwood, finely crafted, and shining like lacquer. Four lifelike horses pulled a delicate and transparent carriage. The overall length was about as long as an adult’s palm and looked very nice when placed on the kang table. "Brother Acheng bought it at the black market. The carriage is hollowed out, and I thought Fubao would like it, so I brought it here."

Fubao’s eyes curved in delight, "Wow, what a pretty big horse! Thank you, brother!"

Xibao was unhappy, chattering and bouncing around Guan Cheng, "Brother Acheng, I want one too!"

"You’re the elder brother, so would it be okay to let your little sister have the little carriage?" Out of fairness, Guan Cheng also chose something from his own purchases to bring for him: a set of Nine Rings puzzle made of white jade. The jade wasn’t of the highest quality, but it was pure white and looked to be made from Hetian jade’s ’mountain stream’ material. "I’ll teach you how to solve the Nine Rings puzzle before bed."

"More fun than a carriage!" Xibao, with an eye for fun, cheered and then eagerly pulled him off to sleep.
