After his mom passed away, in this world, the one who replaced her to give him motherly love was his auntie.
The one who nurtured and raised him was his grandfather.
It’s the same for Jane Sampson.
Brooke Black’s affection for Jane Sampson greatly compensated for the maternal love Jane lacked during her childhood.
Old Master Black taught Jane Sampson like a strict elder.
Moreover, his marriage with Jane Sampson was actively pushed forward by Old Master Black and Brooke Black; the two elders contributed a lot to their marriage.
If it weren’t for Old Master Black and Brooke Black, there wouldn’t be the James Black today, nor the Jane Sampson today, and they wouldn’t be the loving couple they are now.
James Black deeply respects them, so as long as Jane Sampson has no objections, if the two elders are willing, James Black is very supportive.
"Grandfather will definitely be very happy to know this!" Jane Sampson hugged James Black, "I suddenly feel like I still don’t know you well enough, so I need to work harder to understand you better."
James Black changed his clothes and took Jane Sampson out to the dining hall to eat. Before he went out in the afternoon, he instructed the dining hall to prepare some light dinner suitable for pregnant women. So when James Black arrived at the dining hall, he went straight to get the pregnant woman’s meal for Jane Sampson. Because of James Black’s instructions, everyone at the base naturally found out about Jane Sampson’s pregnancy.
However, James Black had told them not to spread the news, so nobody talked about Jane Sampson’s pregnancy to outsiders.
When James Black brought the fish soup for Jane Sampson, he saw Peter Gingery running towards Jane Sampson. Their heads were almost touching, as they were both looking at Jane Sampson’s mobile phone, chatting about something. Peter Gingery laughed so hard that his teeth seemed about to fall out of his mouth.
"This is fish soup specially made by Old Martin for you. The fish was caught from the nearby reservoir, so it doesn’t have an earthy taste. Eat more this evening." James Black placed the bowl in front of Jane Sampson, saying, "Put down the mobile phone, eat first."
"Jane is discussing the baby’s name with grandfather in the WhatsApp group. Old Master Black is saying it’s rare for you to seem so decent, and he’s so thrilled in the group, constantly sending emoticons." Since Peter Gingery hadn’t brought his mobile phone, he was huddled over Jane Sampson’s phone.
He spoke, retracting his head to sit by Jane Sampson and start eating, saying, "Old Master is thrilled, but I don’t understand why. Naming is such a daunting task, if it were me, I wouldn’t want to do it."
"Why?" Jane Sampson asked curiously, "Don’t you think naming the little baby is particularly interesting?"
"Interesting how? Nowadays, internet buzzwords emerge one after another. The same two words used to sound proper, but now many words have become connotative words and sensitive words through the internet realm. If the name isn’t chosen well, later the child doesn’t like it, isn’t happy, it really offends the child."
Peter Gingery has a very strong desire to survive, "Remember there was a girl at our school whose name used to sound very poetic, and then a new line of sanitary products for girls came out with her exact name, and ever since, her name’s been a joke?"
"Charlotte Armstrong..." Jane Sampson chuckled somewhat mischievously, "When I first met her, we were in elementary school. During self-introductions in class, I thought her name sounded lovely, but now at work, everyone calls her by her English name. Her family calls her by her nickname; no one uses the name Charlotte anymore."
