Night falls, the first night that the fairy tale is separated from the child.
Although Qin Zun is working from home now, he sometimes works until late at night. When Qin Zun returns to the room after finishing his work in the office, he thought Tonghua had already fallen asleep, but he found her staring at the moonlight outside the window in a daze.
Qin Zun leaned over and gently kissed Tonghua's forehead, and said in a magnetic voice: "It's so late, why don't you sleep?"
"I couldn't sleep without you coming... Tell me, is the child asleep now?"
Tonghua was worried that the child would not be able to get used to it at night without her around, but she didn't know if it was because the villa's soundproofing was too good. She listened quietly in bed for a long time but didn't hear any sound of the child crying.
Qin Zun had no choice but to lie down on the other side of the bed after kissing Tonghua. In order to avoid pressing on Tonghua's wounds during sleep, although they were sleeping in the same bed, they were covered with two different quilts. There was a long distance between them, and they had to listen carefully to hear each other's voices. "The fact that the servants didn't come to find us means that the child is fine. Don't worry too much."
"Can your mother really take good care of the child? She hasn't taken care of a baby in such a long time. What if..."
"There's no such thing as an emergency. You need to rest well now and recover as soon as possible so that we can take the child home sooner. It's late now, go to sleep."
Qin Zun turned off the lights. Although Tonghua was still a little worried, she knew that what Qin Zun said was right. Even if she took the child over now, she would not be able to take care of the child herself, so she had to suppress her worries.
But the more Tonghua tried to suppress this emotion, the more worried she became. She was so worried about her child that she didn't sleep well that night. It was not until the next morning that she fell into a deep sleep.
When Tonghua woke up, it was almost eleven o'clock.
When Tonghua woke up, she subconsciously looked at the baby cradle, but didn't see the baby in it. She was a little panicked.
At this moment, Mrs. Li found that she had woken up, so she quickly turned around and prepared to bring out the ginseng chicken soup that had been prepared in the kitchen.
"Sister Li, wait a minute, why isn't my baby with me?"
"Madam is pushing Miss for a walk in the garden. She wants the child to go out for some fresh air."
Hearing that the children were playing outside, Tonghua didn't ask any more questions.
After she finished her meal, when Mrs. Li was clearing the dishes, she estimated that it was almost twelve o'clock. Tonghua suddenly asked, "When did you feed the baby this morning? Isn't it time to bring the baby home to feed him now?"
It seemed that she had indeed slept too deeply in the morning and didn't even notice when she had fed the baby.
Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Madam has invited a wet nurse to come over, so..."
"Nurse?! When did we get a nanny in the house?"
The child was just born and had always been fed with fairy tales. Suddenly a wet nurse appeared in the house and she had no idea about it?
Hearing Tonghua's tone, Sister Li carefully considered her words and said, "I think Madam invited them this morning, saying that she didn't want to disturb your rest..."
Tonghua really didn't expect that such a big thing was not discussed with her, so she asked her to call Qin Zun over.
As soon as Qin Zun entered the room, Tonghua asked straight to the point, "Did you know that your mother hired a wet nurse for the baby?"
To Tonghua's surprise, Qin Zun said calmly, "I know."
"Why did you hire a wet nurse? I'm already feeding the baby, right? And you didn't even discuss this with me?"
"It's just a wet nurse. Just hire her so you can focus on healing. There's nothing wrong with that."
In Qin Zun's mind, it was rather strange that his wife chose to feed the baby herself instead of hiring a wet nurse after giving birth. After all, all the children in their entire family were born with wet nurses. It was not only for professional reasons, but also for some women to keep their figures in shape.
Before the child was born, he and Tonghua had had a disagreement about this matter, but because Tonghua strongly requested to feed the child herself, Qin Zun agreed to her request.
But no one expected that Tonghua would give birth prematurely due to an accident, which led to her current weak body. Every time Qin Zun saw Tonghua having to press the pain on her wound in order to feed her child, he felt extremely heartbroken.
So when his mother suggested finding a wet nurse for the child this morning, Qin Zun immediately agreed.
Tonghua felt helpless about her current situation. She knew Qin Zun was doing it for her own good, but she was still worried about leaving her child with someone else. However, because of her injury, she couldn't even sit up properly to feed the child, which made it easy for the child to choke while feeding.
Tonghua originally thought that she would endure it for a while, and wait until the wound on her back healed a little, so that she could change her position and feed the baby properly. But now that she had hired a wet nurse at home, she had no choice but to do this.
Thinking of this, Tonghua still asked with some concern: "Where is the nanny from? Is it okay?"
"Don't worry, this person was personally selected by my mother. He is healthy and has a clean family background."
Although Tonghua still felt a little awkward about letting an outsider feed her child, seeing the expressions of Qin Zun and the others, who seemed to be accustomed to this matter, she let go of the barrier in her heart and convinced herself that this was the best way for the child.
Finally, the baby now lives in Song Yiru's room at night, and is taken out every two hours during the day when she is fed. The rest of the time, the baby stays with Tonghua.
Originally, this decision was a good way to have the best of both worlds. It allowed the child to be cared for by professionals, and also allowed Tonghua to have a good rest and not be too tired.
But as time went on, the baby stayed in Tonghua's room less and less during the day. Whenever Tonghua urged someone to bring the baby over, Song Yirou would say that the baby was still breastfeeding and asked her to wait a little longer.
After the nanny finally finished feeding the child, she sent the child to Tonghua's room. Before Tonghua could spend much time with the child, Song Yirou sent someone to take the child away, saying that she wanted to give the child a bath, take the child out for a walk, etc.
Now it has basically become a fairy tale. I can only see my child twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, and each time is not long.
Tonghua sensed something was amiss and told Qin Zun about it, but she couldn't explain it clearly. Qin Zun comforted her and said that she hadn't been out for a long time and was bored, which led to her bad mood. After she was out of confinement, he would drop everything and accompany her to travel abroad.
Tonghua also thought that he was overthinking.
Until her best friend Tang Shiyao came to see her.
