Chapter 147 Giving Birth to a Child



"Dad... Dad didn't mean that."

Old Man Tian explained, his voice a little hoarse, filled with fatigue and helplessness, "What I mean is that you should leave as soon as possible, as far as you can go. Your mother and I are old, and our health is not as good as before. We are useless, just a worthless life. If it really comes to that, I will fight them to the death."

"Dad~" Tian Xueni knew that although her father did not have any special abilities, he was by no means a bad person, and his love for her was sincere and deep.

"I'm your daughter. How can I bear to see you suffer for me? What's more, if I leave and I can't win, the whole village will suffer."

"Mother said that after the third day of the bath, she planned to take Bao Ge'er to Xuanhe Hospital for care."

Fu Zhiyao said this to Wen Zhu gently.

Upon hearing the news, Wen Zhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that this meant her child would grow up under the direct care of her wife.

Although she still felt a little lost, as a concubine she could not raise her son herself, and it did make her feel more at ease to leave her son in the care of his wife.

Obviously, Mother Su had already told her about praying for the Medicine King's birthday.

My wife has always believed in Buddhism, so she probably loves this eldest grandson even more because of this.

After all, in Buddhism, the birth of every child means new hope and blessings.

Since my wife believes in Buddhism so much, she will definitely love this grandson very much.

As a concubine, Wen Zhu was unable to raise her son personally. She knew that handing Baoger over to his wife was the safest option.

She also hopes that under his wife's care, Baoger can grow up healthy and safe.

What's more, even if Fu Zhiyao gives birth to other sons in the future, the first child who grows up with his wife will have a higher status and will receive more attention.

Thinking of this, Wen Zhu's uneasiness gradually dissipated, and he felt extremely relieved.

After learning about these arrangements, Wen Zhu completely relaxed and felt better.

Before I knew it, I felt tired and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing that Wen Zhu was settled, Fu Zhiyao asked Su Yue and Su Qin to take good care of her.

He picked up his pen and wrote a letter, telling the Duke of Anguo in detail the good news of the addition of a new baby, and asked him to give the newborn child a name.

In the letter, he described the birth of his baby in detail, hoping to receive the blessing and guidance of Duke Anguo.

Wen Zhu gave birth to a baby successfully, and the entire mansion was immersed in joy.

To celebrate this good news, the government gave some extra silver to Dr. Qin and the midwife who delivered the baby, thanking them for their help at the critical moment.

Not only them, but everyone in the mansion received some rewards to share the joy.

The rewards received by the people in Chunhua Academy were naturally even more generous, and everyone was filled with happy smiles.

Wen Zhu also gave Mother Su a bracelet to express his gratitude.

This bracelet was finely crafted and very precious. When Mother Su first saw it, she wanted to refuse it.

But Wen Zhu said sincerely: "This bracelet is far from enough to express my gratitude to you. Without your help and support, how could I have successfully given birth to this lovely little life for the prince? Please accept it, this is also my heartfelt token."

After hearing this, Mother Su was deeply moved, tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally accepted the gift.

From then on, Mother Su became more considerate and attentive towards Wen Zhu and his mother, taking care of them wholeheartedly and making them feel particularly warm.

Afterwards, the Duke's wife and Fu Zhiyao each gave her generous rewards.

From then on, Mother Su took even more meticulous care of Wen Zhu and his mother.

She poured more love and care into their daily lives to ensure that both mother and son received the best care and protection.

Baoger is a well-behaved baby. Most of the time he just eats and sleeps, and rarely cries or makes a fuss, which saves the family a lot of worry.

Mother Su told Wen Zhu that this was because the wet nurse took very good care of her.

Every time after Baoger finished feeding, the wet nurse would gently place him on her shoulders, pat his back gently with her hands, help him burp, and make sure that he had completely digested the milk before putting him in the cradle, for fear that he would feel uncomfortable.

In order to thank the wet nurse for her hard work and careful care, Wen Zhu often gave her some extra pocket money and specially prepared some high-nutrition supplements for the wet nurse, hoping that her body could be well maintained.

As a result, the wet nurse's work enthusiasm was even higher, and she took better care of Baoger.

Thinking of all this, Wen Zhu felt very emotional: Just as his mother once said, when others truly appreciate the benefits you give them, they will become more proactive in doing things.

On the day of the baby's third bath, according to custom, Bao Ge'er was taken by his family to Xuanheyuan for the ceremony.

There were many visitors to the house that day, and everyone came to visit the birth celebration of this little life to express their blessings.

Although Bao Ge'er was only three days old, the red marks on his face that were common in newborns have basically disappeared. His skin looks healthy and fair, and there are no symptoms of jaundice. His little body looks very strong and round.

Those bright and clear eyes were wide open, observing everyone around with curiosity, as if trying to understand the world.

"How come such a tiny baby looks stronger and more sturdy than a full-moon baby?"

A guest asked curiously.

"This may be because Bao Ge'er stayed in his mother's womb a little longer, thus absorbing more nutrients."

The Duke's wife responded with a smile on her face.

Her words were met with unanimous nods of support from several guests present.

Another noble lady, the wife of a certain prince, joked, "It's really unexpected. Wen Zhu's body shape didn't change much during her pregnancy, yet she was able to successfully give birth to such a chubby and adorable child."

"That's true. Wen Zhu has always had a good physique, so of course the baby she gave birth to will be healthy."

The Duke's wife smiled, her tone full of affirmation and appreciation.

She nodded slowly and looked at the little life in the cradle with loving eyes.

In order to prevent the children from catching cold, several charcoal braziers were lit in the hall to keep them warm.

A warm atmosphere spread throughout the room, bringing with it a sense of peace and tranquility.

After the locust tree branches, cattail and mugwort water are prepared for baptizing the newborn, the third day baptism ceremony officially begins.

According to the rules, the female guests came forward one by one and put various items into the copper basin filled with fragrant and sweet water - shiny gold and silver coins, plump red dates, small chestnuts, and longan with good meaning, etc., and kept chanting various auspicious blessings.
