Chapter 464: Peaceful Years (I)
The people outside the door breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the child crying and the news that Su Wan was safe.
As long as mother and child are safe, they will feel relieved.
The midwife brought the baby out and showed it to everyone. Mother Su could tell at a glance that she wondered how good-looking her little grandson would be when he grew up.
His parents have very good genes, and he will inherit their advantages. If he is not good-looking, who will be good-looking?
I had just given birth, so it was not convenient for my brothers to come in to visit, so my sisters-in-law came in to see me.
Su Wan was so tired that she fell asleep holding Jiang Yu's hand. The child cried a few times when the umbilical cord was cut, and he never cried again after that. The wet nurse also fell asleep after feeding him. He was such a good baby that made people worry-free.
After Su Wan fell asleep, Jiang Yu looked at the little ball in the cradle next to him, with tenderness in his eyes.
The child's name was chosen by the great-grandfather. In order to see him, he came to Kyoto specially to fulfill the old man's wish.
The grandfather had been thinking about the child's name for a long time, and he had chosen a backup name for both the boy and the girl.
If it's a boy, he'll be named Jiang Chengyi, and if it's a girl, she'll be named Jiang Wanning.
There is no doubt that Su Wan gave birth to a boy, and his name was Jiang Chengyi.
What a good name! Su Wan felt that his grandfather was worthy of being his grandfather and the name he chose was indeed a good one.
That's right, this stroke is a bit too much. Not to mention that the child may complain when learning to write in the future, it will take her a long time even if she is asked to write it.
Su's mother said that she would have to stay in confinement for forty days, which meant that she was not allowed to go out during these forty days. This was simply a death sentence for Su Wan.
She was sweating all over after giving birth, but she was not allowed to take a shower or wash her hair. She felt uncomfortable all over.
The most important thing is that her milk is swollen...
Very swollen, the kind that hurts.
During her pregnancy, she could clearly feel the changes in her body, and a milky scent lingered around her.
However, she had already hired a wet nurse, and the child could not eat that much. The main reason was that wealthy families hired wet nurses and would not take care of their children themselves.
Moreover, wet nurses are experienced and definitely know more than her, a new mother.
But it was really uncomfortable. After drinking a bowl of fish soup in the morning, I felt even worse.
Seeing how miserable she was, the nanny gave her an idea.
She whispered in her ear how to relieve the pain. After hearing that, Su Wan couldn't help but blush.
Jiang Yu was learning to hold a baby, and the nanny was teaching him how to hold such a small child so that he wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Yuxue was so serious that he didn't notice the look Su Wan was giving him.
Finally, little Chengyi fell asleep again. Jiang Yu turned around and looked at Su Wan. Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and she seemed to be uncomfortable.
"What's wrong, Wanwan? Are you feeling unwell?" he asked her with concern.
Su Wan suddenly found it difficult to speak, because the nanny had just told her that she needed Jiang Yu to help her...
She was really feeling uncomfortable because of the swelling. If it wasn't treated in time, she might get inflammation, which would be difficult to deal with.
So, she pulled on his sleeve and shook it, bringing him closer to her.
Although she was embarrassed, her eyes became confused after she said that.
After Jiang Yu heard this, his Adam's apple rolled subconsciously and even his breathing became rapid.
The temperature in the room continued to rise.
Su Wan also knew that this was not a solution, so he asked someone to find his second sister-in-law Sun Ling'er to ask if there was any way to alleviate the situation.
My second sister-in-law had just given birth not long ago, and she must have the same worries as her. Moreover, her medical skills are also very good, so there are many things that are not easy to ask my second brother, so I can ask her.
Sun Ling'er seemed to have guessed that she would ask, so she asked someone to prepare a prescription and send it over.
Let her take this medicine according to the prescription. After a few days, the symptoms will be relieved.
This really helped a lot. Su Wan followed the prescription and got relief. At the moment the blockage was cleared, he felt so comfortable.
Little Chengyi also changed day by day. After just a few days, the redness on the little baby's body had faded, and his skin began to become whiter, and he looked more and more delicate.
Especially when he was sleeping, he would always smile from time to time, and then reveal two dimples, which would always make Su Wan, his old mother, blush.
Su Wan always likes to hug her and kiss her little face constantly.
During the confinement period, Jiang Yu's vacation ended and he returned to the Ministry of Justice to take charge.
Su Wan was in confinement after a few days, but she finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked someone to get her a hot bath. As long as the temperature in the room was warm enough and she dried her hair immediately after washing, it would be fine. It wasn't the coldest time of the year anyway, so what was there to be afraid of?
Nowadays, people pay attention to scientific confinement and focus on their own comfort. In ancient times, it is better not to continue some bad habits.
Time passed slowly and it was October, and Su Yi and Luo Xizhu's wedding was about to begin.
Because I was still in confinement after giving birth, I could only listen to the loud noise of gongs and drums outside, but I couldn't join in the fun.
There were sounds of firecrackers outside, which meant the bride had been brought back. Today everyone was busy with the wedding of the fifth brother and his wife.
Su Wan stayed in the room alone, playing with little Chengyi and looking at the sky outside. It was one of the few sunny days in October, and he really wanted to go out and bask in the sun.
Kyoto gets cold early, and the weather starts to change in late October.
Meanwhile, at the Su Mansion, Su Yi had just finished his wedding ceremony with Luo Xizhu.
Because Mr. Qi An has many friends, most of whom are literati and elegant guests, they all came to the Su Mansion to attend the wedding banquet today.
Su Yi's reputation in Kyoto has skyrocketed in the past two years, and almost everyone in the literary world can say that they know him.
Some people finally took this opportunity to meet this young and talented painter, so they all gathered around him. Some who were learning to paint kept looking for him to discuss things.
The groom certainly had to drink, and Su Yi's alcohol tolerance was average, so he soon felt dizzy.
Seeing this, Su Yun asked someone to help him go down to rest, and then asked someone to make him two bowls of sobering soup to drink.
He knew how important the wedding night was, and he couldn't let his brother get into trouble because of drunkenness.
This is also a rare tacit understanding between the two brothers.
The Su Mansion was bustling from morning to night. Jiang Yu only returned to the Duke's Mansion after all the guests had left.
Because he blocked a lot of wine for Su Yi, he drank a little too much. When he came back, he hugged Su Wan and refused to let go. Su Wan asked him to take a shower, but he dragged his feet like a child.
Su Wan felt helpless, but in fact, she had always hoped that such peaceful days could continue forever.
But everyone knows that this calm will not last long.
There will still be a fierce battle in Kyoto, it just depends on when the opportunity arises.
