Gu Jinyan directly asked Tian An to live with her. Tian An wanted to refuse at first, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, she started to play tricks and said that Tian An disliked her, so Tian An had no choice but to agree.
After dinner, Gu Jinyan asked her maid to cleanse their faces, do skin care and wash up, and then she took Tian An to sleep in the same bed.
She had originally wanted to have a candlelit night chat with Tian An, but unfortunately, Tian An was too tired and went to see Zhou Gong before saying a few words. Gu Jinyan had no choice but to turn off the lights and go to bed.
In the middle of the night, the anesthesia wore off and Mrs. Gu could no longer bear the pain. The nanny had no choice but to go to Gu Jinyan's yard to ask Tian An for help.
After they quickly put on their clothes, they went to Mrs. Gu's room together. After the acupuncture was completed, they went back to sleep.
Tian An slept until dawn, and when he woke up, Gu Jinyan was already dressing up.
When the maid saw that she had woken up, she took the clothes that had been prepared long ago and helped her change.
Tian An took a look and said in confusion: "This is not my clothes!"
The maid bowed and said, "My lady, your clothes were stained with blood yesterday and have been sent for cleaning. My lady ordered the needlework shop to make them for you overnight."
Gu Jinyan heard the noise and stood up and came over. "An An, you don't like it? Then what kind do you like? I'll ask them to change it."
Tian An shook his head: "No, this dress is very beautiful, the color and style are nice." It is indeed beautiful. Although it was made in a hurry, the material is very good and the workmanship is very delicate.
After she changed her clothes and washed up, Gu Jinyan pulled her to the dressing table and asked the maid to comb her hair. Then she took out a jewelry box and placed it in front of her.
"An An, these are all new, feel free to pick whatever you like."
Tian An looked at the jewelry box in front of him. It was filled with gold, silver, jade, pearls, agate, earrings, hairpins, bracelets, and everything else.
He shook his head and said, "These things are too troublesome. I'm not used to wearing them."
Gu Jinyan thought Tian An was embarrassed, so she took the jewelry box and wanted to choose for her personally, "If you don't want to choose, then I will help you choose!"
She picked out a few and showed a jade bracelet to Tian An, "An An, this jade bracelet is transparent and has fair skin, so it will definitely look good on you."
Although Tian An didn't know much about jade, she knew how to compare! The jade bracelet in her hand was the best in the entire jewelry box, and the color really suited her.
But, "Sister Jinyan, I can't wear a bracelet on my hand! Wearing a bracelet will affect my acupuncture for my aunt."
Gu Jinyan was stunned, "Oh! I didn't think it through." Then she put the bracelet back and picked out a pair of pearl earrings.
Tian An looked at the earrings in her hand and said embarrassedly, "Sister Jinyan, I can't wear earrings either! I don't have pierced ears!"
Only then did Gu Jinyan look carefully at Tian An's ears and found that there were indeed no ear holes, so she could only put the earrings back.
Then, without giving up, she looked Tian An up and down, and then carefully picked out two pearl flowers.
This time Tian An did not refuse. After the maid was done with her, the two of them went to Madam Gu's room together.
Mrs. Gu was in good spirits. Tian An asked her if she had passed gas, but the result was no, so he could only ask her to continue waiting.
Then they asked her to endure the pain while they massaged her stomach. The anesthesia hadn't worn off yet, so she didn't feel any pain.
Later, when Tian An changed the dressing on her abdominal wound, Gu Jinyan, the nanny and several maids beside her were scared to death.
Looking at the long, red cut on her mother's belly, Gu Jinyan burst into tears of heartache.
Tian An was busy disinfecting and dressing the wound when she heard Madam Gu comforting her: "Don't be afraid, Yan'er. It doesn't hurt."
Gu Jinyan didn't say anything, just covered her mouth and nodded, but her tears became more and more uncontrollable.
It was not until Tian An finished her work and turned around that she embarrassedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Afterwards, Tian An taught several maids the techniques step by step and asked them to massage Madam Gu's legs twice a day.
After a busy day, it was time for lunch.
After lunch, Zhao Yiming came over and brought some clothes and daily necessities for Tian An. He told her not to worry about home and to send someone to bring him a letter. After that, he went to see County Magistrate Gu and then went back.
After he left, Gu Jinyan smacked her lips and teased, "Mr. Zhao is such a jerk! He even came all the way here to give you something. Is he worried that I'm treating you poorly, or is it because you've been away for so long?"
He looked up at the sky again in a pretentious manner and said, "It hasn't even been a day yet!"
Tian An blushed for a rare moment. This was the first time she had stayed away from home since she came here!
By the afternoon, Mrs. Gu had passed her gas and started to eat her first meal of lotus root powder.
Then, after dinner, Tian An examined her and, after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he removed the catheter. He then had the maid and the nanny help her walk around.
The nanny looked at Madam Gu lying on the bed and said with some concern: "Miss An An, how can Madam walk with such a big wound in her abdomen?"
Tian An explained: "You don't need to walk too much, just get out of bed and walk a few steps to move around. This will increase blood circulation and help the wound heal after childbirth. It can also help the body expel lochia as soon as possible and restore the uterus.
Please help me get down from the ground and walk slowly. Be careful not to stretch the incision on my stomach, otherwise it will cause pain.
It’s a little hard the first time, but no matter how hard it is, you have to endure it and try to move more so that you can get better and better.”
Madam Gu looked gentle and kind, but in fact, she was strong inside. With the help of two maids, she slowly got off the bed.
After walking a few steps, he comforted everyone: "Actually, standing up and walking is not as difficult as you think, and the wound is not as painful as you think."
The nanny took the opportunity to change the bed sheets while she was getting up. Tian An saw that most of the people had left and asked her to go back and lie down.
As soon as Mrs. Gu lay down, the wet nurse came in holding the baby.
Tian An went over to check him out first, and then he and Gu Jinyan teased him together.
Since he was taken out directly from the belly without being squeezed by the birth canal, his little head is very round.
When the two were teasing each other, he looked at them curiously with his pair of black eyes, spitting out saliva bubbles from the corners of his mouth from time to time, and occasionally he could even force a smile, which was simply adorable.
"This little guy is so annoying at such a young age. What will he be like when he grows up?" Tian An sighed.
Then he looked at Gu Jinyan, "Sister Jinyan, the same thing. This is probably what it means to be so beautiful that it can topple a country!"
Gu Jinyan blushed at the compliment, "You little girl, you're actually starting to tease me."
"No way, what I said is clearly the truth!"
The two of them were joking around, and the house was filled with joy. Before they knew it, another day had passed.
