The birth of Shen Zihan brought a lot of joy to the family, the baby seemed to grow adorably cute, day by day. Even Old Madam Shen, who was far in the capital, heard of it and sent many gifts. This time, Old Madam Shen didn"t have much trouble with Dan Yuerong. There is still the face of Shen Zihan to consider, but Shen Jingshu knows, how can Old Madam Shen easily give up this rare opportunity?
"Furen, you still have to take care of yourself, please give Young Master to nubi", Dan Yuerong was to be in confinement for two months , and yet it was only one month after delivery, so Shen Wenhua did not allow her to do anything but lie in bed. Dan Yuerong felt the warmth and yet was helpless at the same time.
"It is not a problem, the child is not heavy, I want to hug him for a while." Dan Yuerong rejected the wet nurse"s suggestion. The wet nurse was specially found by Ruan momo, naturally, she was good and from a clean family, also she took good care of Shen Zihan. The baby was rather young and was very reliant on her.
"Yes, Furen" Seeing Dan Yuerong wasn"t willing to let go of the baby, the wet nurse didn"t say anything further. But only after a few moments later, Shen Zihan started crying and Dan Yuerong was vulnerable to his cries. " Why is the child crying? Is he hungry?"
"Furen, I am afraid the baby is hungry, let nubi do it" The wet nurse picked Shen Zihan up with a smile, Dan Yuerong could only watch as her son cried pitifully, though she was reluctant to give the baby to the wet nurse, she was helpless.
"Little Master, ooo.. ooo… " (cooing sounds) While coaxing Shen Zihan, the wet nurse fed him. The wet nurse really knew how to take care of a baby, because within a short time, Shen Zihan stopped crying, happily fed and fell asleep. Seeing the sleeping baby, the wet nurse said "Furen, the little master is asleep, this servant, will take him to lay him down."(to the nursery)
"No need. Just lay him down beside me" Dan Yuerong couldn"t nurse her child, as she was in confinement, but she just couldn"t bear to let him go.
"Furen, When young master wakes up, this servant will have to feed him again. He might get noisy and disturb your sleep. Maybe this servant should take him to lay down."
"Its all right, if he wakes up in a while, I will just call you"
"Yes, Furen…." saying so the wet nurse pa.s.sed the child to Dan Yuerong. Unfortunately, not knowing if it was because he was uncomfortable or something, Shen Zihan moved about and poked out his mouth, looking like he was about to cry. Looking at this, the wet nurse said, " Furen, the young master looks like he is about to wake up, I"m afraid it will be noisy at that time, let nubi hold onto to him, so as not to disturb you".
"Alright, then you take care of him!" Although she wanted to get close to Shen Zihan, but watching her son crying, of course, Dan Yuerong couldn"t bear it, so she let the wet nurse hold onto him.
" Furen, please take some rest, after a while, when young master has woken up, this servant will bring him again" The wet nurse saw the situation and hurriedly went to hold Shen Zihan. When she went out, she b.u.mped into Shen Jingshu, "Miss!"
"Nainiang, are you taking Han-er to sleep?"
"Yes, Miss, Han-er is sleeping now!"
"This kid! He sleeps all day, long, he really loves to sleep!"
"The miss is right, young master is sleeping. Children who sleep more, will grow faster. This is a blessing for Laoye (Master) and Furen , as the baby is clever and sensible."
"Well, go on then." Glancing at Shen Zihan, Shen Jingshu originally wanted to touch the baby, but was afraid she would wake him up, so she didn"t do anything. She went in to see Dan Yuerong, "Mother."
"Here you are, Sit!" Dan Yuerong"s face was a little downcast, Shen Jingyshu looked at her quietly, and naturally wondering, " What"s wrong, Mother?"
"Sigh.., Han-er doesn"t seem to be close to me, he cried when I was holding him for a while. I wanted him to sleep beside me, but he wanted to cry again. Sigh…!"
"Mother, Don"t worry, Han-er is still young, why wouldn"t he like his mother? Mother is the best, I like mother the most."
"You child!…" After thinking about it, Dan Yuerong didn"t say anything else. Mother and daughter talked for a while, Shen Jingyshu saw that Dan Yuerong was tired, and then she left.
Now that Shen Zihan had a full moon, the full moon wine for the past few days was very grand, and many good gifts have been sent from the capital. The officials and merchants from all over Jiangnan have come to celebrate it grandly. Just…
Note:Okay, this paragraph is completely senseless. If anybody has any idea what the author is talking about, please let me know. Here is the original: 如今沈子涵已经满月了，前些日子的满月酒办得很隆重，京都那边也送来了不少的好礼物，这江南大大小小的官员和富商也都来庆贺，可见这孩子的受欢迎程度了。只是……
This one thing, Shen Jingyshu couldn"t be bothered, but she had to pay more attention.
It seems every time Dan Yuerong wants to get close to Shen Zihan, he is either crying or he is hungry. Shen Jingshu didn"t feel anything at first, but then she saw Shen Zihan crying with her own eyes, and when Nainiang hugged Shen Zihan for a while, he then immediately stopped crying. She also felt it was strange.
It stands to reason, aren"t children the closest to their parents? Although Dan Yuerong hurt her body and didn"t have any milk, so she couldn"t feed Shen Zihan, but she would hold Shen Zihan every day and would stay with him.
Before, she used to hold him less, due to physical reasons. But now Dan Yuerong was gradually recovering. Why does it seem as though Shen Zihan was repelled by Dan Yuerong but is so close to Nainiang?
Shen Jingshu felt very strange and secretly took care. On this day, she saw the wet nurse holding Shen Zihan for a walk in the courtyard, and she quietly walked over, “How is Han-er today? Good?”
"Young Miss, young master has always been well-behaved. Look at this appearance, and he fell asleep again! ” The wet nurse was very experienced as she had seen a good number of children. Shen Zihan was sticking to the wet nurse so closely, and when Shen Jingshu calmly saw it, she nonchalantly said, " Well, where is wet nurse from? I listened to your accent, and it doesn"t sound like a local!" Nowadays, the more she looked at the wet nurse, the more suspicious she seemed. Though she knows that the wet nurse was personally found by Ruan momo, and Dan Yuerong had seen her, it does not mean there is no problem.
Even though Ruan Momo had performed well, Shen Jingshu is still calm and alert.
"He he, nubi was in the north before moving here after I married into my husband"s family."
" I heard that nurse"s family name is Zhao, is it?"
"Yes, Miss"
"Is nainiang"s family coming to work in this house now?"
Although Nainiang did not understand why Shen Jingyshu was suddenly interested in her family, she answered, "Thanks to the grace of Laoye and Furen, nubi has the honor to take care of the young master, my family members have also entered the house."
"So how many people are there in your family?"
"This servant has four members in her family, myself, my husband and two children."
"According to Mother, she has said that you have done a good job and are willing to stay here permanently, but is this Nainiang"s intention?" It is better to be a servant of the big families than be exposed to the vagaries of living outside. Not to mention the treatment, it"s also very tiring. Nainiang is naturally willing to do so. "It is this servant"s blessing" she agreed.
"Nainiang should do your job well, the Shen family will not treat you badly."
"Yes, Miss!" Inexplicably, Shen Jingshu asked a lot of questions, and it wasn"t until she quietly left that the nanny finally felt relieved, only to feel a little thrilled.
Fortunately, she left no loopholes, or it would be troublesome.
At this moment, Shen Jingshu who had walked far, quietly and suddenly turned to see Nainiang, with a little worry in her eyes, she finally left.
This Nainiang, I"m afraid there is a problem, she will have to quietly look it up!
“Chunmei, keep an eye on how this Nainiang takes care of Han-er in the future, Han-er seems to have lost weight recently.” She was just making an excuse, but Shen Jingshu didn"t know how to bring up children, so she didn"t know what method Nainaing used to make Shen Zihan so reliant on her, she had to find a way.
"Yes, Xiaojie!" Young master is obviously chubby, what losing weight? Although, Chunmei was puzzled, she didn"t say anything.
Whatever the master and young miss say, as long as they were subordinates, they should do the matter well, and they do not need to care about other things.
As Nainiang"s affairs were quietly taken care of, Dan Yuerong wanted to get closer to Shen Zihan and hugged him frequently. Everyday, Nainiang brought Shen Zihan to Dan Yuerong and in this way, Shen Zihan was supposed to get used to Dan Yuerong"s embrace. But every time she tried, something happened, either Shen Zihan was hungry or he was wetting himself. In this way, Dan Yuerong couldn"t hug her son well, though she watched him quietly, she felt the hurt in her heart.
This day, baby Shen Zihan had wet himself again, Nainiang just wanted to ask Dan Yuerong to give the baby to her when Shen Jingshu frowned, "Mother, why is Didi always wetting himself? Every time I visit Didi, Didi is always wetting himself. Does he eat a lot?" Of course it was intentional, Shen Jingshu wanted to wake Dan Yuerong, she was still too young, it wasn"t easy to do a lot of things.
"Zhao shi, why does Han-er always pee? Is he not feeling well? ” Being reminded by Shen Jingshu, Dan Yuerong now thought back and realized whenever she was holding Shen Zihan, he was either wetting himself or pulling away. What is going on? Is the baby not well?
Dan Yuerong was a bit worried, Zhao shi who was listening, got worried that Dan Yuerong might have doubts, so she said " Furen, rest a.s.sured, the babies are always like this, not to worry, let nubi change his diaper!" After speaking she wanted to hold the baby, but Shen Jingshu continued to speak, saying quietly, "Mother, I haven"t seen Didi"s diaper change, would you change the diaper for Didi, I want to watch. If younger brother knows, I am sure he would be happy!" Like Shen Jingyshu would let the wet nurse get her way. This way, wouldn"t the relationship between her brother and mother definitely get closer?
This is what a child does. Whoever he comes in contact with, is close to him. Now that her younger brother is obviously sticking to his nanny, he doesn"t have any feelings about his mother!
Didi is the one the family would have to depend on in the future, she wasn"t going to let anyone alienate him.
"Mother, okay okay.. Look he pees everytime you hold him, but you don"t change the diaper for Didi. Didi definitely wants you to change the diaper for him, otherwise why would he wet himself as soon as you hold him?" Holding Dan Yuerong"s hand, she did not let Dan Yuerong hand the baby to Zhao shi.
"Furen, this is absolutely impossible, the diaper is dirty, it is not good to stain your lady"s hands." In fact, many ladies do not bring up the children in person. Many things are left to the nannies, so when the children grow up, they tend to be very close to their nannies, and distant from their biological mothers. But, Dan Yuerong does not want to see this happen. "It does not matter, how can your child"s diapers be dirty. You bring the diapers here!" Dan Yuerong had a difficult birth in this time"s delivery. She wanted to give all her love to her children, it"s just that her body was powerless, so she could not help it.
But now that she is much better, of course, she would take care of her own children, so that when the children grow up, they will know her. Dan Yuerong is very clear on this.
"Furen, this…" Zhao shi hesitated, She had always changed the diaper, but this time Dan Yuerong was going to do it, she couldn"t wrap her mind around this.
"Go!" Dan Yuerong saw Zhao shi hesitating and was somewhat annoyed. Shen Jingshu quietly said, "Nainiang, Mom is Didi"s mother, why can"t she change his diaper? Or do you not want Mom to change Didi"s diaper?
"Naturally not. I just worry about Furen"s hand." Hurrying to explain, Zhao shi did not want any misunderstandings.
"Is it? Then why aren"t you going?" Seeing the unwillingness in Nainiang, of course, Shen Jingshu knows, this nanny was afraid that if mother will do everything, she would not have any status here.
Hmph, Didi is mother"s son, Is it possible to get so close to a stranger? Not to mention this stranger"s bad intentions.
"Go! Zhao shi, my children are very good and I can still do this much, I am not that delicate" Dan Yuerong was originally unhappy, after listening to Shen Jingshu"s words, she was even more dissatisfied with Zhao shi, she felt like this Zhao shi was thinking very carefully,(thinking too much) and she did not want to see this.
"Yes, Furen!" Seeing that Dan Yuerong insisted, there was no other way for Zhao shi, and she had to hand over the diapers. When she returned, she carefully watched as Dan Yuerong started to change the diaper.
But Dan Yuerong was really not familiar with changing the diapers. After all, the matter of changing a child"s diaper, she really hasn"t done it before. Zhao shi stood to the side, looking like she was watching a show, with no intention of guiding Dan Yuerong. Shen Jingshu hurriedly spoke, "Mother, you haven"t done this before, let Nainiang teach you, otherwise Didi will cry more." Seeing the awkward movements by Dan Yuerong, Shen Jingshu knew of course that this would not happen if the wet nurse was changing the diaper. But today, she just wants to prove something and incidentally remind Dan Yuerong, so she must let Dan Yuerong do it herself.
The more her mother touches the baby, the more closer she will get to him. Shen Zihan is Di son of the house, he is the one the family is relying on, So Shen Jingshu was not going to let anyone alienate him from his family.
"Well, Zhao shi, What should I be paying attention to?" As she was changing Shen Zihan"s diaper for the first time, Dan Yuerong was a bit frustrated. However, the reminder before from Shen Jingshu also let Dan Yuerong know that she really had less contact with this child, so Shen Zihan was not close to her.
Previously, she was not well, but now she is slowly recovering. Naturally, she has to bring up the children more.
" Furen, You should use a light hand, to not hurt young master, and…" Originally, watching a show, Zhao shi wanted to overwhelm Dan Yuerong, and turn to her, but she did not expect Shen Jingshu to remind Dan Yuerong to get her help.
Under the guidance of Zhao shi, Dan Yuerong was finally able to get busy changing the diaper. Fortunately, Shen Zihan was very obedient, although it was uncomfortable, he was changed into a new diaper, and when Dan Yuerong held him, he didn"t cry and stayed comfortably in Dan Yuerong"s arms. He even seemed very sleepy.
"Mother, look look at Didi, he is so comfortable and at ease. It seems Mother should change some diapers for him in the future. Look, he is not crying now, he looks very cute!"
"En, Zhao shi, you can leave first, Han-er is sleeping right here, I will call you later when he is hungry!"
"Furen, Will this not disturb you? The young master will wake up in a while, and Furen has to have lunch in a while!"
"No problem! You go! I will look after him!" Her son was being so good, how could not take advantage of it?
Seeing that she couldn"t take Shen Zihan, Zhao shi felt a little uncomfortable, but in the end she left obediently. When she left, she saw Ruan Momo, who saw that she came out alone. Looking at her face, she murmured, "Zhao shi, what about young master?"
Knowing why she asked the question, Zhao shi replied, "Momo, the young master fell asleep, and Furen asked me to leave."
"Furen is not well, and you are the child"s wet nurse, you should take more care of the child, how could you let Furen get tired? Now that Furen needs more a.s.sistance, how could you leave young master by her side?"
"Momo, I know, just that the young master fell asleep, Furen let the young master stay, this, what could I do!" Hearing Ruan Momo"s words, Zhao shi remembered what Ruan Momo said to her before she came to Shen household, and she is inevitably worried.
