Chapter 224 Confinement
Xu Qingmeng's milk is not enough, and everyone is a little anxious.
The midwife thought that maybe the milk supply had not yet been released, so she kicked Gu Yunyi out and started trying various methods.
Of course, the most important thing is to let the child absorb more, and it also taught Xu Qingmeng a lot of knowledge.
Xu Qingmeng's face turned red when she heard this. She listened to the midwife's words with gritted teeth and nodded casually.
The midwife left only after she saw that Xu Qingmeng had listened carefully.
Before leaving, one of the midwives walked up to her ear and whispered, "There is actually another method that is simple and effective."
"What?" Xu Qingmeng asked subconsciously.
"Mr. Gu." The midwife said with a smile.
Xu Qingmeng: “…”
She didn't want to be a woman who understood things immediately, but she said it so obviously.
"Really? This is how many women give birth for the first time. If it doesn't work, let Master Gu try. We are husband and wife, so what's the big deal?"
“Ahem.”
Xu Qingmeng felt embarrassed at the moment. Even though they had a child now, it was only that one time between them.
The midwife looked at the shy Xu Qingmeng and said nothing and went out.
After the midwife left, He did not stay either. She asked someone to go to the kitchen to prepare hot water. The handkerchiefs, diapers, clothes and other things all needed to be ironed with hot water. There were many things to do.
There was no one in the room, so Gu Yunyi went in.
Xu Qingmeng was holding the child and working hard at this time.
Unfortunately, although I understood the theoretical knowledge, when it came to actually putting it into practice, it seemed like a different story.
When Gu Yunyi came in, he saw Xu Qingmeng's anxious expression.
"Meng Niang, don't worry. I just said I was going to prepare hot towels."
"But we still have to wait a long time, and the little guy is already very hungry."
Gu Yunyi looked at the two children and frowned.
"No, go find a wet nurse!"
Xu Qingmeng shook her head. He had mentioned the idea of finding a wet nurse before, but she had refused. She still felt that if she fed the child well, the child would be closer to her in the future.
The method the midwife had mentioned rang in his mind, and he looked up at Gu Yunyi, then said, "The midwife just mentioned a method, how about you try it?"
"What? Why am I?" Gu Yunyi looked over with a puzzled look on his face.
The corners of Xu Qingmeng's eyes flushed slightly, and her expression was full of shyness, but she still nodded firmly.
······
A moment later, He came in with a bowl of pig's trotter soup, and Xinting followed behind with hot water and a towel.
"Meng Niang, what's going on? If it doesn't work, don't bother yourself. Find a wet nurse first. You may have to wait for two more days." He said.
Before Xu Qingmeng could speak, Gu Yunyi spoke up: "Mom, my sister and brother have eaten and fallen asleep."
"What? It's connected. That's great." He felt happy.
"How did this work? I was thinking of waiting a few more days."
Xu Qingmeng looked embarrassed, and Gu Yunyi also looked uncomfortable, and subconsciously smacked his lips.
How could He not know the truth when she saw the two of them? After all, she was an experienced person, so she did not ask any more questions. Only Xinting looked at them with a puzzled look on her face.
"Well, it's good that it's unblocked, it's good that it's unblocked. This is the pig's trotter soup that Xinting stewed. It's good for lactation, but the taste is a little bland. Eat it first, and I'll think of more dishes later."
Xu Qingmeng nodded. This was the first time for this young lady to get into a sedan chair. She didn’t think the confinement meal was anything special, as she herself was a light eater.
Fortunately, after the lactation, the milk supply is still sufficient, even if the two children need to be fed many times a day, it is enough.
My brother is stronger and eats relatively more.
My younger sister is not so good. She eats little, her voice is weak and delicate, and everyone feels sorry for her when they see her.
In this way, Xu Qingmeng began her confinement days. Fortunately, one day, she was able to get out of bed, but everyone disagreed and even hoped that she would stay in bed for a month.
Whenever she wanted to get out of bed, Gu Yunyi and He would start nagging her, saying that if she didn't take good care of herself during the confinement period, she would suffer from all kinds of pain in the future.
He had experienced it personally, while Gu Yunyi had been given many instructions and warnings by the two midwives, so he took the matter seriously.
Fortunately, it is winter now. If it were summer, Xu Qingmeng would not be able to stay here.
He was teasing the child at this time. Xu Qingmeng looked up and saw that the door was slightly opened. Yun Sheng and Yun Mo were secretly looking at her from the door.
Xu Qingmeng smiled and said, "What are you doing? Why don't you come in?"
The child had just been born and there were a lot of things going on at home, so He asked someone to look after the two of them and not let them come in to cause trouble.
Yun Sheng, although Yun Mo knew that his sister-in-law had given birth, he had not seen her yet.
Hearing this, He looked at the two of them and waved, "Come in quickly and close the door. You can't let your sister-in-law get away with it."
When the two men saw that He didn't say anything to them and let them in, they quickly closed the door and ran to the cradle.
The brother and sister had just finished eating and were in high spirits, especially the brother. Maybe because he was strong, he obviously didn't sleep as much as his sister.
The brother was babbling at this time, and Yun Sheng and Yun Mo's attention was quickly attracted by their brother.
Yun Sheng looked curious: "Mom, is this my nephew?"
"Well, this is your eldest nephew, and the one in red is your eldest niece." He explained.
"Second brother, you see, what you said is wrong. We have nephews and nieces." Yun Sheng said with a smile.
Yun Mo was absent-minded. Just as he was about to reach out to touch his brother, He quickly slapped his hand away, "What are you doing? My nephew is still young, how can you touch him casually?"
"Oh." Yun Mo withdrew his hand with a look of regret.
Although they didn't touch each other, they were so cute! The two of them soon started playing with them like their brother, babbling. They were so immersed in the fun that they were comparable to He and Gu Yunyi.
The two children did not stay in the house for too long. Firstly, they were children and were not careful of their condition. Secondly, Meng Niang could not catch a cold, so she went out early to avoid getting hurt.
The two little guys still felt it was a pity, but since He was watching them, they didn't dare to act rashly.
It was about time for the school to close for the holidays, so Gu Yunyi asked Zhou Yuanjia to ask for leave for him and stayed at home every day.
Before, the child was not born. Now that the child is born, he still doesn't want to go to school. Every day he lies in the room, squatting beside the cradle, looking to the left, then to the right, and from time to time looking at Xu Qingmeng.
"Why are you looking at me? You haven't taken a shower for a long time. You look so ugly." Xu Qingmeng glared at him and her temper gradually became irritable.
Although it is winter now, Xu Qingmeng has to wrap her head every day, and is not allowed to take a shower or get out of bed. She is a simple person, but now she feels uncomfortable everywhere and is in great pain.
