"Okay, when the time comes, I'll take you with me. I thought about it for a moment, and then said.

"Uh-huh, thank you, Brother Chen. Miao Sisi nodded hurriedly in agreement.

When I got home from work and had dinner, I came to the room with Zhou Ruoyun, in addition to Zhou Yaosen asking me to go to Binjiang to take charge of my own affairs, I also talked about the issue of the child's surname.

Originally, Zhou Ruoyun was a little unhappy when I went to Binjiang, but when she heard the child's surname, she smiled awkwardly: "Husband, my dad attaches more importance to this aspect, and he very much hopes that our future child's surname is Zhou, of course, when we named the child, I didn't explain it, I'm afraid that your husband is unhappy." ”

"It's--" I smiled awkwardly.

"Husband, we are together, the child's surname is yours or mine, I don't care, really. Zhou Ruoyun continued.

"I know, I know you're normal about this, it's just my dad's side, and I've always thought the kids would take my last name. I explained.

"Why don't you take the surnames of the two of us, what do you think?" Zhou Ruoyun suggested.

"The surnames of the two people, do you mean Chen Zhou, or Zhou Chen?" I looked at Zhou Ruoyun.

"yes, what then?" Zhou Ruoyun said.

"Well, I'll call and ask my dad. I said.

Hearing my words, Zhou Ruoyun nodded.

I picked up my phone and hurriedly dialed my dad's number, anyway, I felt that I had to tell my dad about it.

"Xiao Nan, why did you call me, did your mother tell you to call me?" my dad's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hearing my dad's voice, I took a deep breath and walked to the balcony.

"Dad, Ruoyun is going to give birth in July, and my father-in-law's meaning here is that after the child is born, he will be surnamed Zhou, so I will talk to you here. I confessed.

"What, what, my grandson wants his maiden name?" my dad's tone suddenly wasn't quite right.

"Dad, what do you see?" I asked.

"What do you mean by me, our Chen family marries a daughter-in-law, how can the child have the custom of surname woman's family name, you are the only seedling of our Chen family, and the child will also be my Chen family in the future, this surname is Zhou, I went out, how to say, the child's surname is the woman's family name, doesn't it mean that my son is a son-in-law, and your son is not too young, you are not too young, you are clear about this matter, right? In the past, you and Zhang Dan got married, I don't say anything else, even if you and Zhang Dan never go home, even if you don't take our two elders to heart, but we all hope that you are happy, because the child is your surname, although there were some moths later, but at that time, at least I went out and said that the child is our old Chen family, called Chen Duoduo. ”

"But now, how do you ask me to go out and say that the child's surname is Zhou? Do I have the ability to open my mouth? You say that people ask me what my grandchildren's name is? How do I say? What should I say? Son, in the future, when your children go to school, the father and the child are not the same surname, what do people think, what do you say about your friends and classmates, what will they think of you?"

My dad continued to speak, obviously attaching great importance to the aspect of the child's surname.

"But Dad, my father-in-law's side, said that he would go out in the future, and people asked, the child is not surnamed Zhou, and he has no face, what do you say? Do you want to split up? Do you quarrel over the issue of the child's surname?" I asked.

"As a man, you have to be tough, the child's surname can't be regressed, absolutely not, at least I won't agree. My dad continued.

"Hey, I didn't call you if I knew I wouldn't have called, but now you're making it harder for me, I'm in the middle, it's really hard. I spoke bitterly.

"What did Ruoyun say?" my dad continued.

"He listened to me, of course, she thought of a compromise solution, that is, the child's surname is the surname of the two families, such as Chen Zhou, or Zhou Chen. I explained.

"Then it must be Chen Zhou, take a single name!" my dad said directly.

"Ah, is that okay?" I asked.

"Chen Zhouyan, Chen Zhoufei, it's all right. My dad continued.

"Khan, this name is too old-fashioned, it's the 21st century, what name did you choose, Dad. I was speechless.

"Okay, anyway, there must be our Chen family's surname in the name, you can do it. My dad continued.

"Dad, if you really want to do this, it is estimated that our Chen Zi cannot be placed at the front, Zhou Chen estimates that it is. I said.

"Then a single name, I'm in the countryside anyway, as long as the last two words, I won't add weeks, I want to save face. My dad said.

"I see. I nodded.

"Xiao Nan, it's not that Dad wants to be angry with you, in fact, Dad also knows that Ruoyun is good, and your father-in-law is at least a good person, but this surname should be discussed earlier, this child is going to be born, and then talk about the surname, isn't this nonsense? I always thought that the child was my surname. My dad finally said.

"My father-in-law is discussing with me today, I can't accept it today, I'm angry, but think about it carefully, we can't quarrel with my father-in-law for this surname, let Ruoyun be embarrassed, just saw Ruoyun embarrassed, in fact, I feel a little guilty, she follows me, it's not easy to follow, how can I live up to her, in fact, for me, if it's for the sake of this family, the child's surname Zhou and surname Chen, it's really not that important, anyway, ours, they will all be children in the future, this is not a separation. I explained.

"Dad knows that you are embarrassed, Dad just said some angry words, you decide, as long as you and Ruoyun can be happy together, in fact, your mother and I are really satisfied, you married such a good wife, it is really a blessing from eight lifetimes. My dad continued.

"Hmm. I nodded.

As soon as the phone hung up, I walked into the room.

"How is my husband?" asked Zhou Ruoyun.

"Just follow the surname Zhou, I don't want your dad to be unhappy. I said.

"This, will this make your dad unhappy?" Zhou Ruoyun smiled awkwardly.

"Wife, I know that your father is relatively strong, and he does pay attention to the face on the scene, since this is the case, then just listen to him, and I am indeed Gao Pan, my family's background is originally rural, I am too strong to say that the surname is my Chen family, and I am also afraid of your father, your family is gossiped about, saying that the family business is so big, and the child is not your surname. I said.

"I'll go and tell my dad, if it's a son, it's my family name, if it's a daughter, then just follow your family name, so my dad should have no opinion, what do you see?" Zhou Ruoyun thought for a while, and then smiled.

"Ahh

"Look at luck, if it's a son, then my dad's side will be, if it's a daughter, then the surname is your family name, isn't it not that she hasn't been born yet, it's good to discuss it this way, and there will be no more disagreements, husband, do you think it's good?" Zhou Ruoyun said.
