Back at the main courtyard, Zhulan took the list from her eldest son's hands, and then there was a silence. The names of the girls were indeed simple; names like Li Sanya were too common, taken according to the ranking in the family. Even if there were literate elders in the family, unless they particularly liked a girl, most names were given casually, almost like a code. To put it bluntly, they didn't pay much attention to girls, subconsciously believing that once married, they belonged to someone else's family.
Zhou Laoda asked, "Mother, are you not happy?"
"No."
Zhou Laoda noticed his mother still looking at the list and said, "The parents of these children asked if they could have their names changed when enrolling in the school."
Zhulan felt a little better, "That's fine."
Zhou Laoda saw that his mother looked tired, stood up, and said, "Mother, you should rest first."
"Okay."
