Time Travel: The Noble Family-Chapter 1104 - 466: An Zhichen’s Assignment Away from Home (Part 3)

Xiang Wei was not polite at all and ordered twenty dishes at once, all of them were Kitchen Maid’s specialties, and also Xiang Wei’s favorites. Unfortunately, Yueyao cut four-fifths of them, only allowing the Kitchen Maid to prepare four dishes: "Making so much at once, you can’t finish it all. It’s better to have these dishes alternated."

Xiang Wei thought Yueyao was stingy: "Fine, then I’ll go take a bath first. If you can’t wait, you can read my notes. If you can, I’ll tell you about it slowly after I’ve rested."

Yueyao was naturally not in a hurry: "I’ll wait for you." Xiang Wei’s eloquence was excellent, and her storytelling ability was top-notch. Listening to it from Xiang Wei was more compelling than just reading the notes.

After Xiang Wei was full and satisfied, she started telling everyone about her experiences in Shandong and Hebei. The listeners, Xi Yu, Xi Juan, and Nanny Hao, all shed tears.

Yueyao didn’t cry, but listened intently, and afterward, she dashed straight into the studio. During this time, Brother Ningning was crying with hunger, but Yueyao didn’t hear, being completely absorbed in her painting.

Xiang Wei stopped Xi Yu and said: "Remember Kexin started eating solid food at six months, and now this Xiao San is nine months old, give him solid food to tide him over." Xiang Wei had seen a lot of life and death, and she herself wasn’t afraid of them, but what she saw and heard on this journey left her deeply moved. She brought supplies to help those people, and their sincere gratitude melted Xiang Wei’s cold, hard heart.

At bedtime, Yueyao emerged. As soon as Brother Ningning saw Yueyao, he burst into loud cries again.

Xiang Wei disdained: "Where is this boy, clearly this is a delicate girl. Hmm, Kexin wasn’t this delicate at that time." Crying at the drop of a hat, isn’t that just a crybaby!

Yueyao felt it was truly wonderful that Xiang Wei had returned; with Xiang Wei’s energetic voice, the mansion wasn’t so quiet anymore: "Be careful that when Ningning grows up, he won’t recognize you as his aunt."

Xiang Wei hurriedly asked: "Is the child on the family register yet?"

Yueyao didn’t know why Xiang Wei asked such a random question: "No, An Zhichen said to wait a couple of years, why?"

Xiang Wei breathed a sigh of relief: "It’s good it’s not. Ningning sounds like a girl’s name, are you planning to raise Xiao San as a girl? Change the name, it must be changed."

Yueyao was somewhat reluctant: "This Ning is quite nice."

Xiang Wei insisted: "Sometimes a name can influence a person’s fortune. You’ve given Xiao San such a feminine name, he’ll surely be just as delicate when he grows up." That he cries now is just a sign of being particularly delicate.

Yueyao didn’t quite believe this, but under Xiang Wei’s insistence, Yueyao smiled and said: "You say Ningning is not a good name, then you pick one!"

Xiang Wei did not refuse: "Let me think carefully." Naming a child cannot be done casually, it requires serious thought.

Yueyao originally thought Xiang Wei would take some time to come up with a name, but she didn’t expect it to be settled in just one day: "Call him An Xu, what do you think?"

Yueyao thought for a moment and laughed: "Xu, as in the rising sun, it’s a good name. Fine, from now on, Brother Ningning will be called An Xu."

Xiang Wei stared: "What, didn’t we say call him An Xu, why are you still calling him Ningning."

Yueyao chuckled softly: "Ningning can be Xiao San’s nickname then!"

Xiang Wei pursed her lips.

After listening to Xiang Wei’s story and reading her written notes, Yueyao spent more than half a month painting three pictures according to her imagination.

After looking at them, Xiang Wei commented: "Regarding the paintings alone, they are indeed very nice. But unfortunately, you haven’t seen the situation of those disaster victims personally, and couldn’t capture the feeling in the paintings." Simply put, Xiang Wei felt Yueyao’s artworks failed to elicit any resonance from her."

Yueyao sighed slightly, she indeed wanted personal experience, but she could never take the risk. For the sake of her child, she couldn’t go to dangerous places.
