Chapter 1792 Congratulations
All the major families also knew about this, and they had to send their wives to give gifts and congratulate.
According to the custom in Anze Prefecture, only a few close relatives and good friends will attend the third-day bath, and everyone will come to eat the wedding noodles during the full moon banquet.
But during the confinement period, gifts will be given to the mother, and the mother will be visited at her home to congratulate her, talk to her, and see the baby. On the day of the banquet, there is no need to bring gifts. The host family will prepare gifts in return, usually wedding noodles and wedding eggs.
Therefore, each family began to prepare gifts, inquire with each other, and three or two families made an appointment to visit each other to give gifts and congratulate.
Mrs. Guan learned early in the morning that Qiao Xuan had given birth in the middle of the night. The delivery process was very smooth. It was a full-term boy, and he was very healthy.
Mrs. Guan suddenly felt uncomfortable.
She wasn't so vicious as to hope that Qiao Xuan and the child would die, but she was hoping that Qiao Xuan would suffer a lot during childbirth, preferably tortured to the point of being half dead, and then give birth to a girl, causing Lord Shao to despise her and causing the couple to have dirty affairs. That would make her happy!
Who would have thought that the birth would go smoothly! This was the first child! Not only were the mother and child safe, but it was also a son. Lord Shao suddenly had his eldest son. It would be strange if Madam Guan could be happy.
No matter how unhappy he was, she lived so nearby and was the wife of the governor, so he had to visit her as soon as possible to show his concern.
The gifts had been prepared long ago. After getting up and washing up in the morning, Mrs. Guan took Nanny Ding and Zhenzhu to the East Courtyard.
Qiao Xuan had also woken up at this moment. She had just become a mother, so she was always excited. How could she sleep too long? She woke up after regaining some energy.
Just as she drank a few sips of water and some millet porridge, the child woke up. The wet nurse and Caiming, Caiyun and others were changing his diaper and swaddling clothes. The baby probably felt uncomfortable and cried loudly. His voice was so childish and fragile that it made people feel very distressed.
Qiao Xuan could vaguely hear what was happening through the partition and screen, so she quickly asked Lixia to go over and tell her to bring the child over.
The baby was instinctively attached to his mother. When he was in Qiao Xuan's arms, she held him, patted him gently, and coaxed him softly. After hearing his mother's voice and heartbeat and smelling his mother's scent, the baby soon stopped crying. His beautiful eyes were still filled with tears, and he looked at Qiao Xuan with watery eyes, which almost melted her heart.
This is her son, such a cute little thing!
After feeding the baby milk, he soon fell asleep soundly again.
Qiao Xuan carefully handed the baby to the wet nurse, who held the baby and placed it in the cradle.
Upon hearing that Mrs. Guan was coming to visit, Qiao Xuan asked Lixia and Liqiu to help her put on a piece of clothing, tidy up her hair, and then told her to come in.
Babies are so fragile. They have just come out of the safest mother's womb and have just started to come into contact with this new and unfamiliar world, which is also a world full of various bacteria. It is difficult to guarantee whether the baby can adapt to it.
The medical conditions were so poor that Qiao Xuan didn't dare let the baby come into contact with outsiders, for fear that he would not be able to bear it.
It will be a gradual transition, at least 10 to 20 days before you can see outsiders.
Otherwise, if something happens, I won’t even have a place to cry.
Mrs. Guan saw Qiao Xuan lying on the bed with a smile on her face. Except for her face looking a little pale due to blood loss during childbirth, everything else was fine for her.
