I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

105 The Day Of The Big Show

The people in the village heard the noise and came out to take a look. They happened to see Madam Wang pulling her hair into the courtyard while punching her.

As a result, some inquired about the situation, some came to stop the fight, and some stood by the side gloating. In an instant, the entire village became lively.

Mo Ruyue also heard the commotion outside, but she wasn’t someone who liked to join in the fun. As long as it didn’t happen to her, she wouldn’t care even if the sky fell. So, she just heated up the food and called for the babies to eat.

During the digestion time after dinner, Mo Ruyue gathered the babies together. She had a question that she had been thinking about for the whole day, and now she could finally ask the babies. It had been so long, but she still didn’t know their names.

This was outrageous. A mother, even a stepmother, actually didn’t know the name of her stepchild.

It was a good thing that the magistrate had not confirmed the babies’ name with her today. Otherwise, Mo Ruyue felt that she would have been exposed on the spot.

“Mother, why did you call us here? Don’t you have night classes later?”

It was San Bao who popped the question. He had the most positive attitude towards martial arts practice. Apart from Da Bao, his learning speed and degree of acceptance were the fastest.

“Mother did not see the accusation today. Aren’t you all ignorant? Mother wants to teach you to start from the name. In the future, when you’re going to study in a private school, it’s not good if you don’t even know how to write your own name.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t come up and say that she didn’t remember the babies’ names. Instead, she made a turn and let the babies say their names themselves.

“Mother, do you not remember our names?”

Er Bao suddenly asked. Suddenly, all the babies looked at Mo Ruyue.

“No, I wanted to teach you how to write your own names. I remember that you guys followed the names written by the lawyer. Now, I will teach you how to write your own names step by step, isn’t that good?”

Mo Ruyue immediately found a suitable excuse and used this to dispel the babies’ doubts.

“The note is with me. It’s the only one with our names written on it.”

After Er Bao finished speaking, he carefully took out a piece of paper from his arms. The names of the five babies were written on it neatly.

When Mo Ruyue saw the five names, she suddenly fell silent.

“Qin Qingyan, Qin Qingduo, Qin Qinghong, Qin Qinghao, Qin Qingting…”

It took a long time for her to read out the names of the five babies one by one. These were five really good names. Each name represented a beautiful blessing, and she only knew it now.

“If it was not for Mother’s accident this time, we have not heard people call our names for a long time.”

Er Bao said sadly. However, Tang Tang mumbled her name and looked very excited.

“Mother, Tang Tang’s name is Qingting. It’s so nice to listen to!”

Among the five babies, she was the one who stuck to Mo Ruyue the most and also the one who loved to act coquettishly the most. At this moment, she was nestled in Mo Ruyue’s arms and her fingers were scribbling on the paper. However, she was pointing at San Bao’s name.

“This is Qin Qingting. Look, not only does your name sound nice, but the characters also look nice. Tang Tang, do you want to learn?”

Mo Ruyue held Tang Tang’s hand and pointed to the correct name, asking in a soft voice.

“Mm! I want to learn!”

Tang Tang nodded her head vigorously and agreed very happily.

“We also want to learn. Mother, which one is my name?”

“Qin Qinghao. My name must be very nice too!” San Bao also chimed in.

“Alright, I’ll point them out to you one by one.”

“This is the eldest baby, Qin Qingyan. This is the second eldest, Qin Qingduo. This is the third eldest, Qin Qinghong. This is the fourth eldest, Qin Qinghao. And this is the youngest, Qin Qingting.”

“Each of your names has a very beautiful meaning. It symbolizes the blessings of the person who gave you the names. So tell me who gave you these names?”

Mo Ruyue had just finished her sentence when the originally excited babies suddenly fell silent.

“Our names were given to us by the people in the neighboring village. When Tang Tang was still in Mother’s stomach, Father left. At that time, we gave two names for a boy and a girl. In the end, Tang Tang was given Qingting when she was born.”

Da Bao was the one with the most memories of the past among the children, so he was also the one who explained to Mo Ruyue.

“So that’s how it is. In that case, your names are the best gift your parents have given you.”

Mo Ruyue could understand why the babies suddenly became gloomy. It was because their names were the last things their parents left for them.

“These are such great names. It’s also the hope and blessing they placed on you.”

“Mother, please teach us how to read. I want to learn how to write my own name.”

Er Bao changed his usual cheeky appearance and pleaded with Mo Ruyue very seriously.

“I’ll learn too!”

“I also want to learn!”

“Tang Tang also wants to learn!”

“And me!”

The rest of the children also expressed their opinions. Their solemn expressions were even more serious than when they had asked Mo Ruyue to let them study.

“Okay, I was going to teach you anyway. So, before we learn to write your names, let’s learn the basic strokes.”

Mo Ruyue got up and went to get the pen and paper that had been prepared in advance. She gave each baby a set.

Mo Ruyue was really not used to such soft brushes.

Fortunately, she had already thought of the future when she would need to write for business and had secretly practiced it. Now that the master had asked her to write well, it was more than enough to teach a few babies.

The babies’ names were nice to hear, but the strokes were also very troublesome.

Mo Ruyue didn’t ask them to immediately start copying the entire character in a hurry, but to learn it stroke by stroke.

In order for them to lay a good foundation, Mo Ruyue had also specially bought some copies of the beginner’s books and let them start copying according to the instructions on them, gradually beginning to practice controlling the pen.

With the example of practicing martial arts, the babies had a deep understanding that laying the foundation was a very boring thing, but they were very used to this kind of boredom and did not feel that it would be hard to practice.

After practicing the strokes for an hour, Mo Ruyue let the babies do the evening class. It was good for them to study both civil and martial arts. It could enrich their minds and knowledge, and also strengthen their bodies and have the ability to protect themselves.

The babies also understood this principle, so each of them cherished such an opportunity. When they could learn and exercise, they would put in all their effort.

The next day was the day of the big market. Mo Ruyue took the babies to the city to play again. She felt that if the babies started to go to school in the future, there wouldn’t be many opportunities for them to play. Before that, she wanted them to seize the time and play.

Mo Ruyue also took the opportunity to inquire about the situation in the city’s academy. It was already summer, so it was impossible to transfer classes. They could only wait until autumn. However, the babies were of different ages and had not been enlightened. The youngest baby could successfully enter the academy, but it was difficult for Da Bao and Er Bao.
