Chapter 144 Diapers
"There's no Lu family," Lu Xiangyang said. "I don't know about the Song family; you'll have to ask Mom."
"Why don't you call and ask?"
Jiang Jianni pondered for a moment: "Never mind, let's wait until she comes back."
Calling someone's family specifically to ask if they've ever had twins is a bit perverted no matter how you look at it.
And that's not important either.
She then thought of Tang Tian: "Tell me, what will happen to my second brother and sister-in-law after their confinement period? Who will take care of the baby?"
The navy is different from other branches of the military.
The navy needs to go out on patrol frequently.
The time spent away could be as short as half a month or a month, or as long as several months or half a year.
How can you raise a child in such a long time?
Lu Xiangyang hadn't thought about this question: "Didn't Mom bring Aunt Liu's relatives with her?"
Jiang Jianni: "But the child is so young, we can't just leave everything to the nanny every day, can we?"
The key point is that we are no longer in the feudal society of the past, where wet nurses and the like were all domesticated.
In order to prevent their family from being beaten to death or sold, they dared not treat the master's children poorly.
Nannies are just hired helpers. If the child's parents are not home for a long time, it is hard to guarantee that the nanny will always treat the child well.
It's not that Jiang Jianni is pessimistic; it's just that people's hearts are treacherous.
There are indeed cases of nannies who neglect their care for children or even abuse the children of their employers. There is also a type of toxic nanny who is said to specialize in dealing with difficult elderly people in their employers.
If anyone dislikes an elderly person in their family, or if the elderly person is too unethical, they can hire a toxic caregiver. In a short period of ten days to a maximum of two months, the caregiver will be sent to their death, and the caregiver can finally have some peace and quiet.
Lu Xiangyang was dumbfounded: "Wait, where did you hear all this nonsense? I've never heard of it before."
Jiang Jianni chuckled: "You read political, military, and international news, while I read social hot topics. We have different focuses, so it would be strange if you hadn't heard of it."
Since moving out, Lu Xiangyang has subscribed to several newspapers.
Lu Xiangyang had certain conditions for reading newspapers, but Jiang Jianni would read anything with words on it.
This is a habit formed in a previous life.
When she was in elementary school, there weren't many children's books available, and her family wouldn't buy them for her. However, her father liked martial arts novels, and they had a few martial arts books at home.
Her first extracurricular reading was "The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants".
Watching it in conjunction with "Justice Bao" is an absolutely wonderful experience.
From then on, things spiraled out of control.
During my school years, I spent almost all of my pocket money, New Year's money, and meal money on buying or renting books.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have started writing novels during his university years and achieved some success.
It was because I read too many books at a very young age that I built such a solid foundation.
However, Jiang Jianni's reading is limited to just reading; she can't extract important information from the news like some people do.
Her specialty is taking news stories, rewriting them, and incorporating them into her novels.
Lu Xiangyang: "...I'll also read more social news in the future."
Jiang Jianni: "Do you think Mom will bring the child back?"
No matter how you look at it, bringing the child back to raise is the safest option.
At the very least, you should raise your child until they start elementary school, right?
In the future, children can choose whether they want to live with their parents or continue living with their grandparents.
Lu Xiangyang: "...Why are you thinking so much? This is something for my second brother, second sister-in-law and our mother to consider. It has nothing to do with us."
He cupped Jiang Jiani's face in his hands and turned her face toward him: "They only have this one child, so they can arrange things however they want."
"There are two of us."
"Why don't you think about how we'll take care of the two of us then?"
"Didn't you hear what the doctor said? Two children are not easy to take care of. You should pay more attention to them."
Jiang Jianni immediately thought of those postpartum women who suffered from depression because they were not properly cared for during their confinement period.
It's okay if postpartum women can recover slowly in the later stages of depression, but the worst thing is that various pressures and harsh treatment can lead to mental breakdowns, and some even jump off buildings with their babies.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jianni immediately shuddered: "How about we ask my mom to lend a hand?"
I've heard that babies don't sleep during the day but do at night, and if one cries, the other two will cry together. You have to soothe one and then the other cries, and so on. Taking care of them is even more difficult than taking care of a singleton.
Lu Xiangyang doesn't seem like the type to abandon the mother and child just because he's annoyed, but we still need to be careful.
She's never had a child or been a mother, so it's better to prepare all the necessary warnings in advance.
If only Dudu weren't here. If Dudu weren't here, even if Aunt Lu had to take care of Lu Erge's child, Aunt Jiang could take care of her instead.
But the thought was quickly dismissed by her in a panic.
Has she lost her mind?
She actually wanted Yang Yuemei to take care of her.
She's seen how Yang Yuemei takes care of Dudu before.
If someone were to come and take care of her, they'd probably be driven to the brink of collapse by all the nagging.
You might not be driven to depression by your children, husband, or mother-in-law, but by your own mother.
She shook her head repeatedly, terrified by her own imagination. Lu Xiangyang frowned: "Are you cold? Why are you shivering? Do you have a cold?"
He then reached out and touched her forehead.
Jiang Jianni grabbed his hand: "No, no, I just remembered something."
“We used to think it was just one person, so we only hired Aunt Liu.”
"With two children now, I'm afraid Aunt Liu won't be able to take care of the three of us, mother and children. How about we find someone else to help us later?"
"Should we ask Aunt Liu if she has any family members who can take care of children?"
Lu Xiangyang: "...Finding someone isn't the priority right now. I think what we need to do is prepare an extra set of everything the child needs."
Previously, it was thought to be for one child, so when Lu's mother, Yang Yuemei, helped prepare things, she prepared the amount needed for one child.
Now that one has become two, it's clear that the previous preparations were somewhat inadequate.
The first thing to be affected is diapers.
Jiang Jianni wanted to scream to the heavens: "Ah, when will the diapers finally come out?"
Lu Xiangyang was taken aback: "Diapers?"
Jiang Jianni looked at Lu Xiangyang eagerly: "Honey, do you know any wealthy friends who want to start their own businesses? I have a great money-making idea that I'd like to share with them."
Thankfully, we have sanitary napkins now.
Although it's ridiculously expensive, thick, doesn't prevent side leakage, doesn't have little wings, isn't very absorbent, and is terribly ugly.
However, using sanitary napkins with toilet paper can also reduce some financial expenses.
Jiang Jianni is most grateful for this era.
Otherwise, if we go back another ten years or so, she really wouldn't know how to solve the problem of menstruation.
She herself couldn't produce these things, nor did she have the ability or funds to do so, but others could.
The sanitary napkins she buys now are made in China. Although they are sold in small quantities and are expensive, it shows that there is already a production base.
All she needs to do is provide some ideas.
If we can get diapers out as soon as possible, will there be diapers or disposable diapers available when she gives birth?
