Chapter 569: A Child's Affair
When dinner time came, Xu Qing's family, cousin-in-law, and aunt sat in the restaurant to eat.
Some time ago, my mother told my uncle's family to let my cousin-in-law come to the villa to raise the baby.
Because the environment of the villa is better, and more importantly, there is a group of experts to take care of it, which can better raise the fetus.
The uncle and his family thought about it and let the aunt and cousin live in the villa, and the aunt helped take care of the cousin.
My uncle and cousin are busy with the supermarket, and although my cousin's supermarket belongs to the Future Group, it can be said that it is completely independent.
In the actual management, the Future Group is only responsible for providing goods to the cousin's supermarket, and other financial and personnel aspects, and the Future Group will not take care of it.
So my cousin felt that he had taken advantage of Xu Qing, and he couldn't always take advantage of it, so he was responsible for the decoration of the supermarket.
My cousin's supermarket rented a storefront and renovated it into a supermarket by himself.
Of course, my uncle and cousin can't do the renovation work, and the decoration of a large supermarket is not something that the two laymen can understand.
But my uncle and cousin thought that the two of them could be overseers.
The decoration team was invited by Future Group, a well-known construction company in the industry, and it is impossible and dare not cut corners.
Xu Qing felt that his uncle and cousin were wasting time, and there was no need to be overseers.
But his uncle and cousin insisted, and Xu Qing persuaded him and didn't persuade him again.
My cousin's supermarket has more than a week to decorate, and then let it sit for more than half a month, waiting for the smell of the decoration materials to evaporate and clean.
Because the decoration materials are all environmentally friendly materials, in fact, it is no problem to use them on the day of decoration, but in line with the principle of rigor and responsibility, my uncle and cousin think it is better to stand for half a month.
After sitting for more than half a month, the goods can be placed, and this process takes a few days.
After placing the goods, the supermarket can be opened, and Xu Qing will attend at that time.
After dinner, according to the convention, grandma, mother, Sophia, and cousin-in-law will take a walk in the yard, and today Xu Qing, grandpa, and dad also walked with them.
Xu Qing mainly discussed with them the name of her daughter, whose name has not yet been decided, and the Chinese name and English name have not yet been decided.
Xu Qing, Sophia, grandparents, parents and parents all have different opinions.
Choosing a name is a very important thing, because the name accompanies the child's life, and Xu Qing doesn't want to give the child a name casually.
Of course, this is also because it is a daughter, if Sophia is pregnant with a son, it would be nice to have a random name.
Choosing a good name before the birth of their daughter is the consensus of Xu Qing's family.
Now Sophia's due date is only half a month away, and the time is urgent, and the name must be unified as soon as possible.
Grandpa said to Xu Qing: "Me and your grandmother, parents think it's good that you and Sophia decide the child's name, let's just choose a nickname." ”
Xu Qing looked at his grandfather in surprise and saw the calm look on their faces.
Grandpa and Mom and Dad should have discussed, maybe they thought that everyone had discussed it for nearly a year, and they didn't discuss the name, so they still gave the child's name to him and Sophia.
After all, Xu Qing and Sophia are the biological parents of the child, and they have the most power to decide the child's name.
Sophia also said to Xu Qing: "You are responsible for the Chinese name, and I am responsible for the English name." ”
Xu Qing has no opinion, Chinese he is much better than Sophia, English Sophia is much better than him.
Xu Qing and Sophia were chatting about the name, and Grandpa was chatting about other things.
In the end, Xu Qing and Sophia reached a consensus, and their daughter's Chinese name is Xu Anyi, and her English name is Isabella.
Xu Qing hopes that her daughter can live a safe, healthy and happy life, so she named her An Yi.
Sophia wanted her daughter to receive God's eternal blessings, so she named her Isabella.
Isabella is a relatively common name in Western countries, and this is quite normal.
In terms of rich names, English names are still not as good as Chinese names.
No matter what, the daughter's name has been decided, Xu Qing is very satisfied, Sophia is very satisfied, and grandpa is also very satisfied.
Then the family discussed how to celebrate the birth of the child, whether to invite guests to the full moon wine, and who to invite, whether to go back to their hometown in Huaxia to worship their ancestors, and tell them that the Xu family had added a population.
Xu Qing's hometown told the ancestors that there was a special ritual for adding population, and the name of this ceremony was lantern appreciation, but only boys were eligible to participate in this ceremony.
The ceremony is held from the tenth to the eighteenth day of the first month of the first month of each year, and Xu Qing's hometown Xujiakeng is the thirteenth day of the first month.
With the power of the Xu family, even girls could participate in the lantern ceremony, but Grandpa and Xu Qing both felt that there was no need to do so.
Although this ritual is essentially patriarchal, and the concept of patriarchy should be abandoned in modern society, this ritual has been passed down for thousands of years after all, and Xu Qing and they don't want to destroy it.
In the end, the grandfather and Xu Qing discussed and decided that they needed to go back to their hometown and tell their ancestors that the Xu family had added a population, but they should not participate in the lantern appreciation.
Xu Qing asked Sophia if there were any customs after the child was born.
Sophia told Xu Qing a few customs, mainly the custom of baptism.
Baptism is something that almost every child born in America goes through, and it is a Christian ritual.
Xu Qing is not religious, but she will not be averse to baptism, baptism can be said to be a custom in the United States, Sophia and her parents, relatives are all Christian, Xu Qing does not need to oppose baptism.
However, it is a question of which priest to preside over An Yi's baptism, usually speaking, it is enough to invite a local priest, but with the power of the Xu family, it is obviously impossible to invite a local priest, and the more famous the priest, the better.
However, Xu Qing didn't know the famous priest, and neither did Sophia.
Although she is a Christian, she is so busy with work that she rarely goes to church to pray, and she has no time to meet famous priests.
In the end, Xu Qing felt that this question could be asked of the Addams family, who had stood in the United States for hundreds of years and must have known famous priests.
After chatting about the baptism, Xu Qing told his grandfather a way to celebrate the birth of his daughter.
Grandpa, they were dumbfounded when they heard what Xu Qing said, and Sophia looked at Xu Qing: "You're a waste of money." ”
Xu Qing said confidently: "I want to give everything I have to my daughter, that money is nothing at all." ”
Sophia only now truly realizes how much Xu Qing loves her daughter, and she can't be described as crazy.
She felt lucky for her daughter to have a father who loved her so much, and in the end Sophia did not object to the way Xu Qing said to celebrate.
Grandparents, parents and parents did not object, according to their words, 99% of the Xu family's money was earned by Xu Qing, Xu Qing could spend it however he wanted, and they would not have an opinion. (https:)
