Chapter 386: Qi Guanxiong also supports the search for relatives
In this hierarchical society, the lower classes did not even have the right to have their own names.
In fact! This was not only the case in the Zhou Dynasty, but also in later dynasties. Even in modern society, in the countryside, in some places, in some families, this is still the case.
If your name is the same as someone else's elder name, although it is not a surname, but the person is a strong person, you are required to change it. Otherwise! Will slowly pick you up until you change your name.
After listening to Confucius's explanation, Da Nizi and Wolf Sister were both paralyzed with fright.
I thought to myself: My son finally asked his husband to come up with a good name, and it turned out! If you meet a strong person, you have to change? What's going on?
What if it changes to Ji's surname in the future?
Come to think of it! The mood of the two of them improved a little.
In Le Ge's heart, he also thought the same: If Lao Tzu is the son of the Great Zhou Tianzi, Lao Tzu is Ji! Lao Tzu's son is also a royal family. When the time comes? Who would dare to change my son's name? It's pretty much the same for my son to have someone change his name.
Thinking of such a beautiful thing, Le Ge couldn't help laughing.
Of course! Not laughing out loud, but! With a smile on his face.
Regardless of whether there will be a name change in the future, the names of the two children have been decided: one is called Le Yingle You, and the other is Le Jian Le Pingyi. The son of Da Nizi's family is called Le Ying Le You, and the son of the wolf sister is called Le Jian Le Pingyi.
After the name was determined, Mr. Min Shigong Min's work was not finished, and he had to write down the name and write it on the bamboo slips. It's not just a simple name, it's a simple description, and then your own name.
Equivalent to credentials: This name was given by Min Shigong!
In the future, if the little baby has a future, the gentleman who named it will have the same reputation. The little baby will be developed in the future, and he may be grateful for the good name that Mr. gave him.
Someone said! Half the success comes from names! So! Naturally, I would like to thank the gentleman who came up with the name.
There are many parents and elders who don't know how to read, and if you don't write your name, people don't know what the name is. Word! There are polyphonic words and homophones! It's easy to get confused.
Once the name is written, the name is finished.
Min Shigong hugged the two babies separately, one was to tease the little baby to play, and the other was to kill time. After the name is chosen, the host is going to entertain you. Other than that! I also want to wrap a red envelope for you! When you leave, you should also give gifts. Wealthy people, in particular, thank you for various reasons.
Confucius also picked up a little baby and talked to Min Shigong while teasing the little baby.
Unless you are in a hurry, force people to walk. Otherwise! You can't leave! The host won't let you go. If you are forced to walk, people will be careful. Will you wonder: Is there less money to give? Or is it a bad name? He's afraid of revealing his stuffing, so he runs quickly?
As the head of the family, Lege accompanies him. In his arms, leaning on the hole carp.
Qi Guan's family, Wolf Sister, and Da Nizi are all gone, and no one can take care of women's affairs. What's more: Da Nizi has to go to the kitchen to arrange. Joke! The family invited the husband to name the baby, can you not entertain it?
Because the name has been prepared for a long time, the kitchen has also been prepared, and the dishes have been bought a long time ago. Some dishes have already been prepared in advance.
For example! The slaughter of pigs and sheep was prepared yesterday. Today! The main task of the chefs is to cook.
If Fei Qing is here, not only these few people, but also invite others to eat on the grounds of naming the baby.
Inviting someone to dinner is not only about accepting red envelopes and gifts from others, but also about building a good relationship.
For rich people and people who love face, after receiving red envelopes and gifts, they will only be returned to others in disguise. This dinner is just a diplomatic and exchange mission, and the goal is to build good relations.
For people who are greedy for money, inviting people to dinner and so on is just a one-time and a means of collecting money, and receiving red envelopes and gifts is their goal.
Da Nizi's family is not short of money at all, and it is impossible to accept red envelopes and gifts from others. But! If you don't accept it, you can't do it. So! Their family has developed a habit: as long as they encounter something, they will take the opportunity to invite guests to dinner or something. Accept other people's red envelopes and gifts first, and then find a reason to return them or double them.
The reason why the Fei family was able to make the business bigger and stronger is here. People are not greedy for money, and gentlemen love money and take it in a good way. The money earned by people is all legal income, and it is within the scope of reasonable profits of businessmen. It's not profiteering, it's not a monopoly.
Because of good popularity, no one dares to blackmail or blackmail. Because of good popularity, even if someone comes to blackmail or blackmail, someone will come forward to help you settle it.
Because of the good popularity, the business is basically repeat customers. These repeat customers are not here to take advantage, but! Support your business. They are embarrassed when you give them special offers.
Because of the good popularity, the Fei family's business will only increase on the basis of old customers and repeat customers.
Although the Fei family did not come to Qufu City for a long time, their business soon surpassed others and became the largest wholesale and retailer in the city.
Because Fei Qing is not here, so! Da Nizi didn't invite business partners and related households to come over, just invited Confucius's family. But! In terms of etiquette, the same. It's just that! Didn't invite others to be less in the number of people.
The dishes and so on in the kitchen are made to the highest standards.
Furthermore! The space of the warehouse is small, and if too many guests come at once, the family will not be able to entertain them. So! Da Nizi didn't invite too many people.
If you invite too many people, you can only invite people to eat outside.
These people in business, everyone loves face. If you invite them to eat at home, they may think that the grade is too low.
And also! Fei Qing's guests are also graded! There are poor and there are rich! If you're having a banquet together, it can be embarrassing.
So! Da Nizi, who thought about it for a long time, still decided: treat you in batches. Today's name is just a name, and in the future, the baby will be treated in batches on the grounds that the baby has a name.
After a while, the big dish in the kitchen was ready, ready to be served.
Da Nizi, Wolf Sister, and Qi Guan's three appeared in the living room again, preparing for the meal. Because the space in the warehouse is too small, the living room is the dining room, and the desk is the dining table, which will be used.
After Min Shigong and Confucius sat on the seat, Da Nizi gave Min Shigong another red envelope. Confucius, as an invited staff officer, naturally also had red envelopes.
Red envelopes are gifts! Other words! He also gave small gifts to Mr. Min and Confucius as a thank you.
Meal! The same is a gift! Before leaving! It's even more like a gift!
Most people don't give gifts after dinner, but just give some when they leave.
But Da Nizi's family is different! People give different gifts at different times. There are also after-dinner gifts, for example! Exquisite gifts such as embroidered handkerchiefs to wipe the face. These things are not worth much, but they have face, which makes people have to accept it.
These are the ornaments that the nobles usually display (pretend to be), which are equivalent to props in filming. Just like women in modern society who go out with bags, people are pretending to be more than showing.
Businessman! Some are ways to give gifts to others.
