Chapter 315 Naming the Third Child
Ye Qingchen's three newborn sons gave Gu Mochen a lot to think about. He racked his brains day and night, hoping to give the three little ones names that were both pleasant to hear and meaningful, but no matter how he thought about it, he felt that no name could perfectly meet his expectations.
After much deliberation, Gu Mochen finally decided to stop worrying alone and instead seek help from the Emperor Emeritus, the Eldest Princess, and the Medicine King. After all, they were all experienced and highly respected elders who would surely be able to come up with a good name.
At this moment, the elders were bathing in the Medicinal Spirit Spring. This Medicinal Spirit Spring was no ordinary spring; it possessed miraculous effects. Since they came here to recuperate, even Grandpa Lu had become much younger. Although, apart from the Emperor Emeritus, none of the others had taken any rejuvenating pills, the nourishment from the Medicinal Spirit Spring and the large fish in the deep pool had greatly improved their health.
In this tranquil and mysterious medicinal spring, the elders thoroughly enjoyed the comfort and pleasure brought by the water. The spring water was crystal clear, shimmering in the sunlight, seemingly containing endless vitality. Large fish swam freely in the deep pool, adding a touch of life and energy to the entire scene. In addition, everyone loved the fish because of their medicinal and edible value. These fish grew at an astonishing rate every year and produced many smaller offspring. For their safety, special fish-proof nets were set up to prevent the larger fish from interfering with their bathing.
Although the princess did not know martial arts, Ye Qingchen deeply understood the importance of health and hoped that she could have a healthy and long life. Therefore, after careful consideration, Ye Qingchen decided to teach the princess a set of health-preserving yoga.
This set of yoga postures is gentle and soothing, suitable for someone like the princess who has no martial arts background. Ye Qingchen explained the key points and benefits of each posture to the princess in detail, and personally demonstrated them to her. The princess learned very diligently and quickly mastered the basic yoga postures.
To enhance the health benefits, Ye Qingchen suggested that the Princess practice yoga before soaking in the medicinal spring. This would help her move her body, improve blood circulation, and allow for better absorption of the spring's medicinal properties. The Princess readily accepted this suggestion and practiced daily.
Two years have passed, and the princess's health is improving steadily. She not only feels energetic, but her skin has also become smoother and more delicate, even showing signs of regaining her youthful appearance. This makes the princess very happy, and her gratitude towards Ye Qingchen is overflowing.
After benefiting from this health and youth, the eldest princess didn't want to keep it all to herself. She thought of her ever-present nanny, Han, and decided to start practicing yoga with her. Han was initially hesitant, but seeing the princess's transformation, she too was tempted.
Under the Princess's patient guidance, Granny Han gradually mastered the techniques of yoga. As time went by, Granny Han's body underwent significant changes. Her wrinkles diminished, her skin became firm and elastic, and she radiated health, appearing as if she had become ten years younger.
Now, the Princess and Granny Han practice yoga together every day, enjoying the happiness that health and youth bring. And all of this is thanks to Ye Qingchen's careful teaching and that magical health-preserving yoga routine.
When everyone learned that they were going to name their grandchildren, the people who were enjoying their baths seemed to be frozen in place, their bodies stiffening instantly, even their movements slowing down. It was as if naming their grandchildren was more important than bathing, allowing no room for carelessness.
So people quickly put down their towels, dried themselves, dressed, and returned to their courtyards. They then eagerly began rummaging through drawers and cabinets, searching for books and classics. The books were piled high, ranging from ancient texts like the Book of Songs and the Analects to modern dictionaries and encyclopedias. People stared intently, carefully turning each page, afraid of missing any potentially good name.
In this process, everyone fully utilized their imagination and creativity, racking their brains to give these lovely children names that were both pleasant to hear and meaningful. Some names were poetic, some had profound meanings, and others combined family traditions and culture.
After much deliberation, the Emperor Emeritus finally settled on a name—Gu Wenshuo. The character "Wen" represents culture and knowledge, while "Shuo" signifies brightness and brilliance. The Emperor Emeritus hoped that this child would have a brilliant future and become a talented and accomplished person.
Not to be outdone, the eldest princess named another grandson Gu Wen'an. The character "Wen" also represents culture and knowledge, while "An" symbolizes peace and stability. The eldest princess hoped this child would live a peaceful and safe life, far from troubles and suffering.
Finally, the Medicine King also displayed his unique creativity, naming his third grandson Gu Wenyi. The character "Wen" still represents culture and knowledge, while "Yi" embodies elegance and exceptional talent. The Medicine King hoped that this child would not only possess outstanding talent but also refined manners and temperament.
And so, the names for the three babies were settled, and everyone praised them highly, complimenting Ye Qingchen on her ability to have so many children. Indeed, apart from Chenchen and Xixi, the other children all looked different, as if Ye Qingchen had given birth to many children at once. Faced with so many children, Ye Qingchen couldn't help but exclaim that their family was treating her like a sow, having given birth to a full 10 children in one go!
For some reason, a movie Ye Qingchen had seen many years ago suddenly flashed through his mind—"Ten Brothers." It was a fantasy film about an ordinary family who accidentally ate ten magical beads, resulting in the birth of ten children with different appearances and special abilities.
The scenes from the movie kept flashing through Ye Qingchen's mind; she could almost see the ten children vividly displaying their special abilities on the screen. And at this moment, looking at the first seven children before her, Ye Qingchen felt a strong intuition: these three unnamed children would also be very special.
This intuition was not unfounded, but stemmed from Ye Qingchen's observation and understanding of the children. She noticed that each child had a unique personality and talent. Whether it was the clever and quick-witted eldest child, the lively and adorable third child, or the taciturn fifth child, they all showed a different side in their respective fields.
Perhaps these three unnamed children will possess amazing talents and abilities, just like the ten brothers in the movie. They might have extraordinary strength, able to easily move heavy objects; or magical healing abilities, able to heal the wounds of others; or extraordinary wisdom, able to solve complex puzzles.
It is precisely because of this trust and expectation in the children that Ye Qingchen does not care about their future prospects. She believes that every child has unlimited potential, and as long as they are given enough love and guidance, they will surely be able to create their own wonderful lives.
