Chapter 38 Choosing a nickname
After she took out all the pen, ink and paper, Gu Anning picked up the brush and wrote a prescription for her, and then advised: "You follow this recipe to grab a few pieces of medicine and come back, and when you boil the medicine, you can boil two bowls of water into one bowl of water, and you can recover within three days."
The middle-aged woman accepted the prescription, and then took out the two taels of silver she had prepared and stuffed it into her palm, and said gratefully: "An Ning, thanks to you this time, thank you for saving my daughter-in-law and granddaughter, this is the only little heart our family can do, please accept it, don't refuse."
"Okay, I'll take the money." Gu Anning knew that if she didn't accept the silver, they would not be at ease, so she accepted the silver.
Seeing her accept the silver, the middle-aged woman and the old Cheng Liang clan suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
"An Ning, the child was rescued and delivered by you personally, and her name is yours." Cheng Liang said gratefully to the little benefactor in front of him. His face was flushed, and it was clear that he was overjoyed.
Gu Anning shook her head slightly when she heard this, and said with a smile: "The child's name should be given by the parents, and it is not appropriate for me to give it a name."
When the elder Cheng Liang heard this, he laughed and patted his chest and said: "You will take the child's name, there is nothing wrong with it, and please ask the benefactor to take it."
"That's it, my father-in-law is right."
Listening to the two of them, Gu Anning still shook her head with a light smile, thought for a while, and then took a step back and said, "I can't afford to have a big name, but I'll give her a nickname."
The two elders of the Cheng Liang clan glanced at each other, thought for a moment, and then nodded, with a full smile on their faces, and said, "Good, good, good."
The people in the courtyard listened to their conversation and looked at them in shock.
Tonight's events can be said to be very shocking for them. It's enough to keep them chatting for days.
……………………
In the hall, Gu Anning pondered for a moment, then looked at them, and then slowly spoke: "Xiaoju, removing the wooden character is auspicious, I don't know what you think?"
"Tangerine, Ji, Tangerine, Ji, this nickname is good, and in the future, the baby's nickname will be called Xiaoju. Thank you! ”
It was Cheng Liang clan elder who spoke, and he saw that his cloudy eyes were full of gratitude to her, and his heart was extremely happy.
"No thanks, now that the matter has been settled, Xiaole is still at home, I can't stay here longer, so I'll leave first." Gu Anning packed up her things, and then looked at them.
What I said is right, Xiaole is still at home, and with the yard at home that is not protected at all, she is really a little relieved.
Cheng Liang and the others nodded when they heard this, and after listening to her words, they both understood in their hearts, so they didn't want to stay.
"Okay, okay, An Ning, it's hard to walk in the dark, I'll send you."
It was a middle-aged woman who spoke, and the person opposite was not only the lifesaver of her own family, but also a little girl, walking at night in the dark, which always made people feel uneasy.
For her kindness, Gu Anning shook her head and said with a smile: "No need aunt, this place is not far from my house, I'll just go back alone."
For her words, the aunt raised her face and said seriously: "Now in the middle of the night, you are a little girl, how can I, as an aunt, rest assured that you will go back alone."
When Gu Anning heard this, she couldn't cry or laugh in her heart, thinking that she had learned a lot of martial arts since she was a child in the 21st century.
So far, let alone three men, even if six men come, they are not their opponents.
However, this is all a piece of people's hearts, and it is not easy for him to refuse again, so he nodded and responded: "Okay, then it will be troublesome aunt."
"Look at what you say, what's the trouble." The aunt glanced at her and said.
With that, she looked at the darkness outside, and then she turned and walked into a room.
After a while, when she came out of the room, she carried a lantern in her hand, and a basket in her other hand, which felt heavy when she looked at it, and she did not know what it contained.
"Alright, Anning, let's go!" When she came to her, the middle-aged woman laughed and said loudly.
Gu Anning nodded, then nodded slightly to the elder of the Cheng Liang clan on the side and left.
The villagers surrounding outside saw that there was no better play, so they dispersed and went home to sleep.
The courtyard, which was originally still lively, suddenly quieted down, and the elder Cheng Liang in the hall experienced this thrilling thing tonight, as well as the joy and fall of the mood. When he was cleared, he felt that his old legs were a little trembling, so he quickly sat down on the chair and rested against the chair.
On the other side, less than a quarter of an hour later, Gu Anning returned to her courtyard. The middle-aged woman stuffed the basket she was carrying into Gu Anning's hand, and said, "Anning, these are some eggs, not worth a few dollars, you take them to the child and you to replenish your body."
Gu Anning stuffed the basket in her hand back into her hand and said, "I have already received the silver, you can take these eggs back." My sister-in-law has just given birth, so you cook these children for her to eat, so that she can make up for them. ”
I visually inspected the basket of eggs just now, and there were about twenty or thirty eggs in the basket.
In the village, eggs are a precious thing.
Moreover, so many eggs can be stored for a long time. They were reluctant to eat it, just so that they could sell it for a few bucks. Now, she actually gives all these eggs to herself.
But the middle-aged woman in front of her shook her head after hearing this, and said, "I still have them at home, so you can take these."
The principled Gu Anning naturally refused to accept it, she had already received the silver she deserved just now, and she couldn't accept these eggs now.
"Auntie, I can't take these eggs, I'm going to be angry if you go on like this."
The aunt on the other side was slightly stunned, looking at her with a straight face, and then feeling the momentum emanating from her, her heart suddenly shrank, and then nodded.
"Okay, auntie is not reluctant, don't be angry." The middle-aged woman took back the basket, looked at the room through the door and saw the oil lamp still on, and said, "An Ning, it's not too early now, you hurry back and rest, it won't be dawn soon."
After hearing this, Gu Anning nodded and responded, "Okay, then you can go back early." With that, Gu Anning walked towards her room.
Seeing the door closed, the middle-aged aunt turned around and left with the lantern.
