Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2217

Chi Shuang guessed several times but failed to guess it.

Ma Chuyang stopped playing tricks on me and put away his smile, becoming unusually serious. "When you have a child, I'll give him your last name. I've already picked names for him: if it's a boy, I'll call him Chi Tang, and if it's a girl, I'll name her Chi Shu Yue. What do you think?"

Chi Shuang was stunned, and after a long while she asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's true," Ma Chuyang touched the top of his wife's head, "We will continue the Chi family's legacy. Whether it's for Chi Yue or for you, I'm willing to do it."

When the couple returned from their new house, Chi Shuang's eyes were red.

Qin Fangfei saw what was happening and was about to scold her son when she was stopped by her daughter-in-law.

"Mother," Chi Shuang said, "I only regret one thing: not becoming your daughter-in-law sooner."

The years have been wasted in vain...After saying this, she hurried into the house, as if shy.

Chi Shuang was afraid of death and had decided not to have children. But after getting married and staying with her husband in the army, she gradually changed her mind.

Ma Chuyang seems to be a wild and imaginative person, but in fact he is a very gentle and considerate person.

At first they were in a relationship where he chased her and she ran away, then gradually it became that he was demanding and she was reluctant to resist, and finally they became passionate and happy with each other.

Chi Shuang is now very attached to Ma Chuyang. Just thinking about being separated from her husband during the period of pregnancy is very difficult for her.

But she never expected her husband to be so thoughtful of her. The child's last name was Chi... something she had never dared to imagine.

She had always thought that the Chi family would be extinct. This Chi was her father's pond and her brother's pond.

Now her husband gives her hope.

Chi Shuang stroked her pregnant belly and wanted to smile with her eyes closed, but tears slowly flowed down her face.

The world is not deceiving her. The hardships she endures in her early years will turn into sweetness in the rest of her life.

On this side, Ma Chuyang said mysteriously to Qin Fangfei, "Mother, I have something to discuss with you."

The mother and son strolled in the sea of ​​colorful flowers in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, and talked about the child taking the mother's surname Chi.

Qin Fangfei didn't say anything, just listened to her son explain the reasons and necessity in detail.

Finally, Ma Chuyang asked cautiously, "Mother, why don't you say anything? Don't you agree?"

Qin Fangfei squeezed her son's wrist and shook her head. "I'm just... a little excited."

She was proud that the son she raised could have such a mind. However, "As a military commander, your child must take your father's surname. The Ministry of Personnel must register the succession! How can the court allow your offspring to change their surname at will?"

Northern Wing laws required officials of the fifth rank and above to report their children's names to the Ministry of Personnel for record-keeping purposes. Children were required to take their father's surname; violators were subject to severe punishment. Those who arbitrarily changed their mother's surname were considered to be instigating a family disorder, a crime tantamount to rebellion.

At that time, when Qin Fangfei shouted "Qin Chuyang" on the boat, she was just doing it for fun and never thought that she really had the ability to change her son's surname.

In this way, General Ma's defense was broken on the spot.

Now, this is a serious request to let grandchildren take the mother's surname. Will the court agree? If everyone follows suit, what will happen?

Ma Chuyang said, "Since I dared to promise Shuang'er, I must be sure. I just hope mother doesn't have other thoughts in her mind."

Qin Fangfei smiled and approached her son. "What can you do? Can you change your last name to mine?" She raised her hand and touched her son's shoulder. "I don't want such a good son of mine to be taken advantage of by the Ma family."

Ma Chuyang laughed, "In my heart, I have never been a member of the Ma family. Mother, don't worry."

With that, the matter was settled. This was because Ma Chuyang had previously agreed with Emperor Wenxuan that when the child was born, the court would directly issue an imperial decree, allowing the child to take the mother's surname, Chi.
