The next day
If you breastfeed your baby, you usually feed once every three or four hours. Although it is very tiring, Yang Haiyan can still rest in between. So the ones who are really tired are those who keep an eye on time, such as Qin Fang.
In the early morning, Yang Haiyan woke up, and Qin Fang fell asleep snoring in the crib.
"Madam, are you awake?" Nanny Lian asked outside, but her voice was very soft, for fear that the people inside would not wake up and be woken up by her.
Yang Haiyan said, "Awake, come in quietly, don't wake up the general."
Nanny Lian came in quietly, helped Yang Haiyan brush her teeth and wash her hair, and then brought out the tea. It was tea made from Cordyceps sinensis. Yang Haiyan bought it from the platform because there was no Cordyceps sinensis in this world and no one knew what it was. Yang Haiyan also gave it to the elders of the Qin family and told them to make tea with it, one stick a day. So in the eyes of the Qin family, they thought it was just a herb for making tea and they didn't know its nutritional value.
Yang Haiyan drank a cup of warm tea and had breakfast, and Nanny Lian took the things away.
It doesn't mean that women can't get out of bed during confinement, but it's best not to get out of bed on the first day. However, you still have to get out of bed to go to the toilet.
Yang Haiyan just lay in bed, her eyes never leaving the baby. She also touched the baby's face from time to time. Of course, she was very, very light.
Maybe it's because the filter is too big, which is probably what all mothers have. She feels that the baby is cuter and cuter the more she looks at him.
Babies get hungry very easily because they don't drink much milk each time. Generally speaking, formula feeds are more frequent, about once every two or three hours, while breastfeeding is about once every three or four hours. Yang Haiyan is a new mother. Whenever the baby hums a few times, she will touch the baby's lower body to see if he has urinated.
Look, the baby hums now. Not only does he hum, but he also opens his eyes. Babies are just born, so their eyes are not very flexible. They open their eyes for a while, then hum and cry again.
Yang Haiyan hurriedly spoke to comfort him: "Good baby, mother is here, don't cry, don't cry..." As she spoke, she picked up the child and fed him. In fact, she didn't know if the child was hungry.
Speaking of which, it is actually very tiring for a mother to hold a child, but when a mother sees her child, she seems to feel no tiredness at all. The baby opened his mouth and began to suck milk, and his eyes that had just opened closed again. Yang Haiyan looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "What a little baby."
"Do you want to change your diaper?" Qin Fang walked over with a hoarse voice.
The child has never peed since he was born. Qin Fang heard the child's humming and was worried that his wife would be too tired to change diapers, so he just came over.
Yang Haiyan said, "No, he..." She untied his diaper and took a look. "He pooped." She didn't know when he pooped. She didn't even know. Yang Haiyan was worried. "Husband, the baby pooped. The color of the poop is a little green. Go ask Miss Li."
Qin Fang ran out when he heard it.
After a while, Miss Li came. She went to the bedside, looked at the diaper that Yang Haiyan had taken off, and said, "Don't be nervous, Madam. This is feces. It usually takes two or three days or three or four days to finish."
Hearing what Miss Li said, Yang Haiyan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, but it doesn't smell at all."
Before Yang Haiyan got pregnant, Miss Li knew nothing about mothers and babies. She started to learn after Yang Haiyan got pregnant. Because Yang Haiyan was pregnant with her first child, as a member of the general's mansion, she also valued it very much, so she learned a lot. After ten months, she had learned almost everything she should learn. Hearing what Yang Haiyan said, she smiled and said, "The fecal matter doesn't smell. I'll go get some warm water to wipe the baby."
Yang Haiyan said, "Excuse me, let my husband do it."
Nanny Lian said from outside, "The warm water is here." She had been paying attention to the situation inside, and the warm water was on standby twelve hours a day.
Qin Fang said, "I won't wipe it."
Yang Haiyan raised her eyebrows.
Qin Fang explained, "Although she is a lady, she is still young, but there is a difference between men and women." Although he himself didn't mind, he didn't want to affect the reputation of the lady.
In ancient times, daughters and fathers often had to avoid each other.
But... Yang Haiyan, Miss Li and Nanny Lian looked at Qin Fang in surprise. Miss Li and Nanny Lian were stunned. The wife gave birth to a little boy, so why did the general think he was a concubine?
"General..." Nanny Lian wanted to explain.
"Madam..." Yang Haiyan interrupted her, "You come and wipe the baby's body. The general didn't sleep all night. Let him rest for a while during the day, and he will be tired at night."
Nanny Lian didn't think much about it. She said, "Why don't I keep watch for the wife at night so that the general can rest at night?" Although she said so, she didn't stop changing the baby's diapers and wiping the body.
Yang Haiyan said, "No need." Men must participate in the hardship of women giving birth and taking care of children. "Your general is reluctant to leave his daughter to someone else to take care of."
Nanny Lian: "..." Madam is deceiving the general.
Qin Fang said, "No need, I'll take care of her."
Yang Haiyan was telling the truth. First, Qin Fang was worried about leaving his daughter to someone else to take care of her. Second, his wife had just given birth and he was taking care of her. Third, even if he couldn't do this or that, he was happy to live in the same room with his wife.
But at this moment, he really wanted to catch up on his sleep: "I'm going to wash up and catch up on my sleep. You guys take care of Madam during the day."
Nanny Lian: "Yes."
After Qin was released, Nanny Lian put the baby, who had already wiped his butt, changed his diapers, and eaten and fell asleep, away, and said to Yang Haiyan: "Madam, the general doesn't even know that you gave birth to a little boy."
Miss Li also looked at Yang Haiyan.
Yang Haiyan said: "You don't have to tell him. I want to see when he will find out."
Nanny Lian agreed with a smile. Miss Li felt that this Madam was quite childish.
Grandma Qin and Qin's mother came over together. They didn't dare to come too early, for fear of disturbing Yang Haiyan and her son, but it was almost time, so they came over.
Yang Haiyan was also in high spirits. When she heard them coming, she asked Aunt Lian to invite them in.
After Grandma Qin and Mother Qin came in, they first asked about Yang Haiyan's health. They were relieved when they heard that she was fine.
Yang Haiyan knew that they were here to see the child, so she said, "Grandma, Mother, do you want to hold him? He just ate a lot and had feces. Now nothing can wake him up."
Hearing that the child had just finished eating and fell asleep, Grandma Qin said, "Don't hold him anymore. The child has just finished eating. Don't bother him." Although she said this, she still looked at the sleeping baby, "This child looks like you, Yanyan." Good-looking.
Yang Haiyan said, "The eyes are like your husband. Just now, I was hungry, and the little guy cried and opened his eyes."
Mother Qin said, "The child is yours, and he looks like both the father and the mother." No matter whose child it is, you can always find the father and the mother in his facial features.
The two looked at the child and left. They knew that Yang Haiyan was tired, so they didn't bother her too much. Anyway, they lived together and there would be plenty of time to watch the child in the future.
After returning to Liuxin Courtyard, Grandma Qin saw Grandpa Qin walking around in the yard and said, "Old man, what are you doing?"
As soon as Grandpa Qin saw Grandma Qin coming back, he hurried over and said, "Did you see the child? How is it?" It's not that Grandpa Qin doesn't care about his grandson-in-law Yang Haiyan. How can such a wise old man only care about his great-grandson and not his grandson-in-law? It's just that even if there is a generational difference, there is still a difference between men and women, so he didn't ask.
Grandma Qin said, "I saw it. Afang's wife is in good spirits. When we went there, the little baby had just fallen asleep and looked fine."
Hearing him say this, Grandpa Qin was relieved. Speaking of which, he also wanted to see his great-grandson, but after all, it was the yard of his grandson-in-law, and it was not easy for an old man like him to go there. "By the way, I haven't thought of a nickname for the baby these days."
Speaking of this, Grandma Qin warned: "Don't give the baby a name like puppy or calf."
Grandpa Qin said: "How could that be? Our baby is the young master of the general's mansion, so I naturally won't give him such a nickname." If the baby was given such a nickname, he would be laughed at by others when he went out in the future. Grandpa Qin didn't think he was that stupid.
Grandma Qin: "What nickname will you give the baby?"
Grandpa Qin thought for a while: "The baby's full name is Qin Linyang, why not call him Little Sun?"
Grandma Qin thought for a while: "This nickname is too good, too high. It's better to
give the baby a nickname that's a little bit mean. If it's too high, what if the baby can't handle it..." There is such a saying in the countryside that a child's name can't be too high. If the name is too high, the child will be taken away. The nickname of Sun is a bit high.
Grandpa Qin, as a grandfather, doesn't understand this very well, but Grandma Qin is a Buddhist, she believes in this, so she doesn't agree with the nickname given by Grandpa Qin. But when Grandpa Qin heard her say this, he agreed. He didn't want his great-grandson to have any mishaps: "Then... what's a good name?"
Grandma Qin thought for a moment and said, "Then call it..."
"Wait..." Grandpa Qin interrupted her, "I named the baby, you can't take it away. I see, you did it on purpose."
Grandma Qin pouted, "How could I do that on purpose? It's obvious that you don't know how to name, so you asked me. You old man, I just want to name my great-grandson, so what?" Grandpa
Qin insisted, "No, then wait until Afang's wife gives birth to the next baby and then you can name it."
Grandma Qin snorted, "Then why don't you give it a nice name." Grandpa
Qin was not convinced, "Didn't you say you wanted a bad name? Am I not thinking about it?"
Grandma Qin: "Then you should choose it quickly. The child has already been born, and you, the great-grandfather, haven't even thought of a nickname. How dare you?"
The couple who had been in love for a lifetime quarreled over the baby's nickname.
