The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

Chapter 587 Named Yichuan

Seeing this, Ni'er, who was standing by, quickly took out a small mirror from the house and handed it to her mother.

Yan Zi took the mirror and looked at her eyes carefully.

This sight scared her - her eyeballs were covered with bloodshot and blood spots, which looked very scary.

"I overexerted myself just now and my eyes are bleeding a little, but it's okay, I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Yan Zi pretended to be calm and spoke to Niu Li, trying to make her tone sound more relaxed.

After hearing what his mother said, Niu Li felt a little relieved, but he was still a little worried.

He turned to look at his sister, hoping to get a more definite answer from her.

The elder sister seemed to see her brother's worry and comforted him with a smile: "It's okay, I've checked it for you, it's just a minor problem, don't worry."

Yan Zi smiled and looked at Ni'er and the other two, then said softly, "Come on, let's give him a name. Both of you were named by your grandma before, so this time we will choose one ourselves."

After hearing this, Nier couldn't help but think of the names that her grandma had given to herself and her brother.

Grandma looked down on my father, so she also looked down on his children and gave them some nice names.

The people from my eldest uncle’s and second uncle’s families are named Fugui and Manguan respectively, how auspicious!

But my younger brother's name sounds like a laborer.

Not only that, Nier also thought of the names Niu Jinshui and Niu Xiuli. She thought both names sounded nice.

Looking at my own name again, it is so perfunctory.

At this time, Niu Li asked in surprise: "Mom, are you really going to let us name it?" He seemed a little unable to believe that this was true.

Yan Zi smiled and nodded, and answered affirmatively: "Of course, this time I'll leave it to you two siblings to pick it up."

Niu Li knew very well the importance of naming, and he felt a heavy burden on his shoulders.

"Mom, I only know a few words and it's hard for me to come up with a good name!" Niu Li said to his mother with a worried look on his face.

The third brother looked at his son's embarrassed look and couldn't help laughing, then shook his head.

"It's good enough to be able to read, kid. Look at our entire village, the number of people who can recognize ten words can be counted on one hand."

"You and your sister are the only two people in our family who can read. If I don't let you choose the name, who else can I let it be given to?" The third brother patiently comforted Niu Li.

Niu Li listened to his father's words and felt that it made sense.

Although I am still young, I can recognize a few words.

However, he still felt a little unsure, after all, he didn't know much about many of the rules and taboos.

"Mom, how about this? My sister and I will write down the names first, and then show them to Dad and you, and you can decide."

Niu Li thought about it and felt that this method was safer.

The third brother nodded in agreement.

So Niu Li picked up the pen and began to think seriously about the name.

Nier sat aside, her brows slightly furrowed and her lips tightly closed, obviously also racking her brains to think.

Time passed minute by minute, neither of them spoke, only the sound of pen sliding on paper.

Finally, Nier broke the silence. She whispered, "I thought of a name. How about you listen to it?"

Niu Li raised his eyes, looked at Ni'er and nodded.

Nier went on to say, "Niu Yichuan means standing like a mountain and being tolerant like a river. It has both the stability of a mountain and the open-mindedness of a river. I think this name is pretty good."

Niu Li listened, nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "I thought of two names, one is Niu Zhiqian and the other is Niu Yubei."

Nier thought for a moment and said, "Zhiqian is a good name, as it means modesty."

Niu Li shook his head, "But in comparison, I still prefer the name Niu Yichuan."

“It is not only majestic, but also has profound meaning.”

Nier smiled and said, "This name comes from the poem 'Kawahara stands tall and proud'."

Niu Li also laughed after hearing this and said, "Sister, you know so much."

Then, Niu Li looked at his brother who was sleeping soundly and sighed, "I think my brother is really lucky. He came here just after our family reclaimed the wasteland and moved into a new house."

Nier said with a smile on her face: "Yes, he is a blessed child."

Yan Zi listened quietly to the brother and sister discussing the name enthusiastically, but her thoughts gradually drifted away.

She couldn't help but think of Ni'er and Niu Li's names, and a feeling of helplessness and sigh welled up in her heart.

"How great it would have been if I had found a literate teacher to name them!" Swallow thought to herself.

However, she knew in her heart that this was just an unattainable wish.

The old lady would never agree to such an approach. She has always been stubborn and has her own ideas about naming.

The news of Yan Zi's birth quickly spread throughout the village.

When the second son's wife heard the news, she felt even more depressed.

She thought of her past experiences. If it weren't for the second child, her child would have been born long ago.

"But it's better if the baby isn't born." The second son's wife consoled herself with a wry smile, "It's not like the third son's family. Their children have everything they want, but my child will only suffer if he is born."

She shook her head helplessly, her heart filled with envy for the third brother's family and dissatisfaction with her own life.

We are all born of the same parents, so why do other people's lives are so sweet while my life is so miserable?

The more the second son's wife thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, and her dissatisfaction with the second son became stronger and stronger.

"The more I look at the second son, the more annoying he becomes!" The second son's wife grumbled angrily, "If it weren't for him, my child wouldn't have ended up like this..."

At the same time, the old lady also heard that the baby was named Niu Yichuan.

This name made the old lady so angry that she stamped her feet. She felt that this name overshadowed her two precious grandsons.

"Does their child deserve a good name? And Niu Yichuan, with such a big name, aren't they afraid of not being able to keep it? It's not as good as our family's wealth and grand prizes!"

The old lady's face was full of jealousy and a flash of hatred.

"That kid is lucky, but fortune changes, and his family can't always be rich. I want to see how long their prosperity can last!"

The old lady recalled what she had heard before about silver growing in the fields of the third brother’s family.

Before that, she sneaked into the third brother's field and dug when no one was paying attention, hoping to find the legendary silver.
