Stealing Your Heart Chapter 476

Lin Xinyan found it necessary to inform them that their names had been changed.

After rehearsing in her mind, she said to the children in a soft voice, “Our country has a long history of five thousand years. Since ancient times, there has been a tradition whereby the children follow their father’s last name. I didn’t have time to tell you before, but your daddy and I have changed your last names.”

Glancing up at her, Lin Xichen chewed his food carefully and swallowed it before saying, “So this is what you wanted to tell us?”

Lin Xinyan nodded. Noticing that he did not seem surprised at all, Lin Xinyan asked, “You knew it already?”

No one’s supposed to know about this.

How did he find out?

Lin Xichen took another piece of steamed cake and put it into his mouth. “No, I didn’t, but I know that it is just a matter of time before we change our last names. I’ve also found out that everyone is using their fathers’ last names. Only Ruixi and I are the special ones. But now we’re not special anymore, and no one will think that Daddy is in a matrilocal marriage.”

Lin Xinyan was rendered speechless.

How is he so well-informed that he even knows about matrilocal marriage?

Hearing Lin Xichen’s words, Lin Ruixi, who had been eating, blinked her eyes and asked curiously, “What does a matrilocal marriage mean?”

Without the need to think, Lin Xichen answered in a serious manner, “Usually, it’s a woman who marries into a man’s family, as in it’ll only be normal for Mommy to marry into Daddy’s family. But in a matrilocal marriage, it’s the other way around. For example, Daddy married into Mommy’s family, so Daddy is in a matrilocal marriage.”

Lin Ruixi was confused. What man and woman? Who marries whom? Shaking her head, she did not bother to make sense of it but just asked, “Does that mean we no longer have ‘Lin’ as our last name now?”

“Of course.” Lin Xichen raised his chin and continued, “You can ask Mommy.”

Lin Xinyan stared at her son in amusement. Where did he hear all this from?
