10 Cruises(4)
Lin Yilong and Amy were just boating in Hailong Bay, except for Amy's regular time of practice and eating, the two of them spent all their time from Hailong to the Lion City in the cabin, although the fun was a little ridiculous.
"See you in Santorini?" took Amy to the airport, and the two separated at the customs exit.
"That's right. Lin Yilong replied, "You haven't been to the Aegean Sea either, have you, just go there to continue the romance?"
"Okay. Amy's cheeks were like rouge, and she ran into the waiting area.
(Security checks at Changi Airport at the boarding gate)
Back at the docks, Enzo was packing his luggage.
"I'm sorry you can't continue with us to South Asia and the Middle East. "If you need anything, please feel free to contact us." β
"Aha, it's nothing, the main reason is that once I go to these places, it's always a little inconvenient to go to other places. Lin Yilong replied, "Every time you enter other places, the customs and your insurance company always ask you for 100 pages of explanatory documents, which is too troublesome." So, my strategy is not to get into that trouble. β
When he got off the boat, Lin Yilong took out two 50-pound bills and gave them to Enzo, and took out a 100-dollar knife and asked Enzo to give him to the cleaner in his room.
So, after 5 hours, Lin Yilong returned to the airport and returned to London.
After getting off the plane, Lin Yilong did not return to the Bracken Forest Farm, but went to Kingston upon the River Thames.
Katie, who has already begun to show her pregnancy, is exactly when she needs him the most. As soon as they met, Katie bit Lin's lip indulgently.
"It's okay, it's okay. Lin Yilong touched Katie's back, although the two of them video chatted confidently from time to time, it was still more secure to be face-to-face.
Even when she is pregnant, Katie attends debates and votes, and meets with voters in her office on Saturdays. As for Sundays, she went to church as a "traditional English woman". The schedule is full, so naturally he has no time to accompany Lin Yilong to engage in his "Eurasian Voyage".
I haven't seen her for nearly a month, and Lin Yilong hugged Katie in a tacit "princess hug" posture and sent her back to the bedroom.
"Really. Forty minutes later, Katie still had a flush on her face, and said angrily, "Don't call before you come back?"
"I wanted to surprise you. Lin Yilong took the Japanese-style matcha powder and matcha cream roll he bought at the Lion City airport and handed it to Katie, "However, Katie can remain calm, and great joy and sorrow are not good for her daughters." β
Katie couldn't hold back her curiosity these days, so she went to the New Merdan Hospital to check the sex of the child, and then there was some surprise - she was pregnant with twin girls.
Now, it's time for the two of them to bother with the child's name.
In the precedent of the Yeon sisters, Katie knew that it was impossible for her daughter to bear the surname of Lin Yilong.
"I prepared oriental names for my daughters. Lin Yilong said, "It's just a little too boring." β
Lin Yilong was born at the end of the planned economy, from elementary school to university, and the names he heard seemed normal to him, but later, whether he heard the names of his classmates' children or the children of relatives and friends, he was a little too interested in Xindaya, and as a result, he lost inspiration when he asked him to name his daughter.
"I remember you said, what Poliselli, just call these two names!" Lin Yilong had a flash of inspiration. Because of Katie, he didn't want his daughter to sound like a casual name, so he said Katie's name casually.
"Sounds like someone on the other side of the pond. Katie grumbled.
"I'm talking about nicknames. Lin Yilong corrected, "It's Mary and Sarah." β
Just as Katie is a nickname, Katie's Christian name is actually Catherine, but she often abbreviates herself to Karen at work. Polly is usually referred to as "Maria", mostly as a shorthand for Mary, while Cellly is usually a nickname for "Sarah", which is also shorthand for Sara (Jane goes to an H).
Both of these names appear in the classics, which is quite decent, but the problem is that on the other side of the pond, I don't know if the English language level is not good, they just use nicknames as their Christian names. According to English language habits, if you don't have a middle name, then only a combination of first name + last name is fine.
"Sounds a little rustic. Katie glared at Lin Yilong.
"Don't you often use Polly and Cellly as examples of unspecific girls' names, so you might as well just call them these two names. Lin Yilong replied, "This is similar to what men often say about Tom, Jerry, and Jamie when they give examples." β
"Is there any other way?" Katie began to seek Lin Yilong's inspiration.
"Then Mary and Elizabeth?" the names of the well-known sisters flashed in Lin Yilong's mind, and he began to exhaustively.
"Two queens!?" Katie asked.
"Or, Alexandra and Dagmar?" Lin Yilong added to the royal sisters, who were most famous in the nineteenth century by marriage.
"Where is the Prince of Wales now, and where is the Grand Duke of Russia?"
"Olivia and Joan?" are the two Oscar-winning actresses.
"Sisters who don't get along with each other?"
"Charlotte and Emily?" the BrontΓ« sisters were famous, and it was impossible for an educated English speaker not to know the BrontΓ« sisters' reputation.
"I don't want my daughters to be too weak. β
......
couldn't stop Lin Yilong's brain, Katie looked helplessly to the other side, let Lin Yilong take the mobile phone to find the name of the well-known sister, and then continued to veto.
"You have such a weak name?" asked Katie.
"I can't be as casual as Cicero's parents who named their son chickpeas. Lin Yilong replied, "Anyway, what remains now, in addition to the name of the place or occupation, is the name of the saint and the classic person." β
"If you don't want to use Katie, you can give your opinion, after all, it's all in the discussion. Lin Yilong persuaded Katie, "Even if it's a personal preference." β
Katie was stunned, Lin Yilong said it reasonably, no matter how random the choice was, it could be regarded as naming her daughter. It's true that I can't find a suitable one for a while.
"Or maybe it's Polly and Cellly?" Katie thought of a number of things, like Christina, Charlotte, or Victoria, and found that most of the names she was interested in were classic names like Maria or Rebecca. The reason why Katie likes these two names even more is that she chose them.
"If you don't object, you can. Lin Yilong smiled, "However, I really didn't expect those two names to be successful at the beginning." β
"I thought you were going to give your daughters oriental names. Katie said.
"The name has been chosen. Lin Yilong said, "But after all, the masculinity in the name is too strong." β
So, for fear that others would overhear, he whispered two names in Katie's ear.
"What do you mean?" asked Katie, of course, who didn't understand.
Then, Lin Yilong said the meaning of the name he intended to add.
"Isn't that the same as us?" said Katie, "for example, Victoria means victory, and Helen means torch, which I know very well. It's better to say that people who feel rusty are better off having problems with their heads. β
"Please call me Mr. Drako-Fide-Wood in the future, just call me Mr. Wood. Lin Yilong quipped with his own name.
