Ren Shijia didn't care when she heard that. She nodded and said, "Okay, when do you want to go? I'll ask Madam Lu to arrange a carriage for you."
Ren Yaoqi hadn't had much contact with Ren Shijia in his previous life. Although he didn't think she was a very powerful person, he was still relieved to see that she was so easy to talk to.
"Then let's do it the day after tomorrow." Ren Yaoqi said.
Ren Shijia nodded and asked the maid to tell Madam Lu.
After Ren Shijia finished cleaning up, someone from the old lady's side came over. Ren Shijia gave a detailed explanation to the maids and servants in the house before leaving.
Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin stayed in Shi Jia's room, looking after Xiao Lincen together with the wet nurse and maids.
The child is only one month old and is usually very well-behaved. He goes to sleep after eating without crying or making a fuss. He just sleeps more.
Lin Cen slept in the large rocking cot in the east side room, while Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin sat on the kang. Ren Yaoyin was making her tiger-head shoes, while Ren Yaoqi was reading a book Ren Shijia had the maid bring from the Lin family's study. It was a rather dry Taoist classic, but it was better than nothing.
After a while, Lin Cen woke up and cried softly. The nurse came over and felt around in the cradle, then said with a smile, "Oh, the young master peed."
So the maids began to work in an orderly manner. Although Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin were asked to look after the child, they really just watched. They couldn't help, and there was no need for them to help. The maids had been carefully trained and were very familiar with taking care of the child.
After the child's diaper and mattress were changed, he fell into a deep sleep again.
Ren Yaoyin put down the truth in her hand and said with interest: "Brother Cen is really well-behaved."
The nurse smiled and said, "That's right. The young master is the easiest child I've ever seen. He never cries or makes a fuss at night."
Ren Yaoyin asked curiously, "But he sleeps too much. Are all children like this?" The brothers and sisters of the Ren family are all grown up. Although the eldest son Ren Yiyan is married, he has no children, so Ren Yaoyin has never seen a child as young as Lin Cen.
The wet nurse said, "The child needs to grow, so he sleeps for a long time." She also felt that the young master slept more than others every day, but sleeping was not a bad thing. At least the child was always healthy, so the wet nurse didn't care.
After a while, a maid brought in a red lacquer tray with a large blue and white covered bowl on it. The aroma of food could be faintly smelled.
The nurse sniffed playfully and said with a smile, "I guess today's dish is pig's trotter and peanut soup?"
In order to ensure sufficient milk supply, the wet nurse needed snacks in addition to the three meals a day. When Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin first saw the wet nurse's appetite at Ren Shijia's place, they were shocked. The wet nurse ate more in one meal than they used in a whole day.
The maid who entered placed the tray in her hand on the table, bowed to Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin, and then smiled: "You have a really good nose."
The nurse smiled and stood up, saying, "Thank you, young lady, for bringing it to me personally."
The maid who brought in the tray was Qingliu. She had previously served in Old Madam Ren's courtyard. Ren Shijia had brought her back with him from Yunyang City. Everyone in the courtyard knew that Qingliu was a maid that Ren Shijia's family had prepared for her son-in-law. Although she had not yet been officially taken in by Lin Kun, everyone in the Lin family still called her "Miss." This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
