Becoming a literary master starting from the story of Minglan

Chapter 51 Nickname
Zeyutang.

In Madam Wang's courtyard, Sheng Hualan, holding little Mengyue, approached Wang Ruofu and said with a smile, "Mother, come and see Xiaoqi!"

"This child is so beautiful!"

Sheng Hualan greeted her mother with a smile, seemingly oblivious to the displeasure on her face.

"Humph!"

Madam Wang was somewhat displeased.

"Hua'er, why did you bring this child here?"

"How can I, as the legal mother, be worthy of raising these illegitimate children?"

Wang Ruofu, in a fit of pique, made sarcastic remarks, completely oblivious to the fact that she, as a mother, was throwing a tantrum like a child.

"Oh dear! Mother!"

In front of Madam Wang, Sheng Hualan was much more relaxed and started using more intimate terms to address her.

After all, they are mother and daughter, not father and daughter.

"Mother~"

Seeing that Wang Ruofu still looked arrogant and angry, Sheng Hualan had no choice but to step forward and bring Xiao Mengyue to Wang Ruofu's side.

"I'm not your father, why are you arguing with me?"

Sheng Hualan pretended not to know and pointed out Wang Ruofu's thoughts, saying, "Besides, there's no one else in this courtyard, Mother, why don't you come and take a look!"

"Humph!"

Wang Ruofu felt embarrassed by her daughter's words, but she also felt that her actions were indeed inappropriate. After all, how could she involve children in adult matters?

However, out of consideration for her mother's dignity, Madam Wang was too embarrassed to say anything and could only let it go.

"Alright, alright, I'll just take a look!"

Madam Wang said rather reluctantly, "I'll only take one look!"

Although she said that, Wang Ruofu was actually quite curious and wanted to see just how good-looking the child was. After all, most women, except for a very few, are overflowing with love.

Wang Ruofu just glanced at it!
"Yo!"

"He's really quite handsome!"

Wang Ruofu was immediately stunned when he saw the exquisitely beautiful little dumpling!

"How come this kid is so tall and handsome?"

As a mother of three, Wang Ruofu naturally knew the laws of child development and understood that a newborn baby could not get rid of previous marks and become beautiful overnight, which is why she was so surprised!

"hehe!"

"Mom, I knew it! Xiao Qi really is very good-looking!"

Sheng Hualan pursed her lips and chuckled to herself, without revealing Madam Wang's earlier decision to "only take a look".

"I must say, this child is really good-looking!"

"Who knows how many women he'll charm in the future?"

Looking at the soft, cuddly little dumpling in front of him, Wang Ruofu couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, Xiao Mengyue, who had been being carried around, finally understood his situation and knew who the person in front of him was.

"It seems that I'm most likely to be raised by her."

Looking at his stepmother in front of him, Xiao Mengyue quickly made a judgment.

"However, given my current awkward position, I don't know what kind of person this is, or if he's like Lin Qinshuang?"

Xiao Mengyue harbored doubts in his heart, but dared not show them on his face. In fact, he even opened his mouth to show goodwill to Wang Ruofu.

"No matter what, the most important thing right now is to make a good first impression. We'll figure out the rest later!"

Xiao Mengyue made up her mind and didn't delay. She immediately twisted her body and made "ya ya" noises.

"Eeya! Eeya!"

Little Mengyue innocently struggled out of his swaddling clothes and reached out to Madam Wang for a hug.

"Yeah!"

"Yeah!"

"Oh! Mother!"

Sheng Hualan was also taken aback!
"Look, Xiaoqi wants you to hold her!"

"Yo!"

Wang Ruofu was also secretly delighted!
"Hmph! You've got good taste, kid!" Madam Wang had a smug look on her face as she happily took little Mengyue from her daughter's arms. She held him skillfully with one arm and reached out with the other to touch the child's little face, feeling its delicate smoothness.

"Sigh! You three siblings were just this young once too!"

"In the blink of an eye, they've grown so big!"

Looking at her daughter in front of her, Wang Ruofu's heart churned.

"Hua'er, it seems you're about to become a wife and bear children!"

"Mother...Mother...I can't bear to part with her!"

When the topic of separation came up, Madam Wang's eyes reddened, and she almost burst into tears!
"Mother~"

Hearing her mother say that made Sheng Hualan feel a little uncomfortable, but to avoid everyone being in tears, she quickly changed the subject.

"Mother, why are you bringing this up?"

Sheng Hualan reached out to wipe away her mother's tears, and said with a smile, "Isn't this how we girls all go through it?"

"Besides, even if our daughter marries into the Yuan family, isn't she still your daughter?"

"In the future, if you miss me, just send someone to let me know. No matter how far away you are, your daughter will come back as soon as possible!"

Sheng Hualan held back her tears and continued, "However!"

"If my daughter's future children are as good-looking as Xiao Qi, that would be wonderful!"

Sheng Hualan deliberately steered the conversation towards Xiao Mengyue in an attempt to improve the atmosphere, and Wang Ruofu saw this and understood what she meant.

So she followed up on her daughter's topic, laughing and scolding, "You silly girl, how can you talk like that?"

"The betrothal ceremony has just ended, and the wedding hasn't even taken place yet, and you're already thinking about having children. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"

"Mother, didn't I just say that to you?"

Sheng Hualan shook Wang Ruofu's arm affectionately, acting like a spoiled child.

"Alas! Alas!"

"okay!"

"Stop shaking!"

Wang Ruofu turned around, easily shaking off Sheng Hualan's clutches, and shouted a warning, "Be careful of the child!"

Despite Wang Ruofu's apparent displeasure at the birth of these illegitimate sons, she was kind-hearted at heart. Though she complained, her actions betrayed her true feelings.

"hehe!"

Seeing her mother like this, Sheng Hualan couldn't help but smirk.

"Oh, right, Mother!"

"Dad also asked you to give Xiaoqi a nickname!"

Seeing that Wang Ruofu's mood had improved, Sheng Hualan quickly began to explain the task to her father, Sheng Hong.

"what?"

Wang Ruofu, holding the child, turned around and looked at her daughter, saying, "Let me name her?"

Seeing Sheng Hualan nod, Wang Ruofu thought for a moment and then figured out the meaning behind it.

"What? You've remembered now..."

However, Wang Ruofu stopped abruptly as soon as he uttered those words, remembering what his daughter had said earlier.

After all, when it comes to adult matters, one must always be mindful of the occasion.

"mother!"

As if she hadn't heard those words, Sheng Hualan stepped forward calmly and said, "Look, Xiao Qi is so cute, it wouldn't hurt to give him a nickname!"

Sheng Hualan kept persuading her mother: "Besides, in the entire Sheng family, apart from Grandmother, aren't you the one who is most suitable to name Xiao Qi?"

"Does that mean you won't get up, and instead have Father go and call the people from Linxi Pavilion to choose a name?"

Sheng Hualan deliberately provoked Wang Ruofu into revealing the person she hated most.

"Is she worthy?"

As if someone had stepped on her tail, Madam Wang spat out in a sharp voice.

"I am the rightful matriarch of the Sheng family!"

I owe two chapters, I'll make them up tomorrow...
