Grandpa is very happy to have a grandson. Sometimes he uses his grandson’s age as his grandson’s name to commemorate it. For example, Jirentai was born when his grandfather was sixty years old. “Jiren” is in Mongolia. It means sixty in Chinese. Mrs. Dalin was born when his grandfather was seventy years old. "Dalin" means seventy in Mongolian. People can judge the age of their grandson by the age of their grandfather, and they can also infer the age of their grandfather by the age of their grandson.
