Seeing King Jing looking up at her, Mama Xu's voice was getting smaller and smaller, "There is a way for the women to be..."
For His Royal Highness King Jing, Mother Xu always had a kind of fear, not only because of her identity, but also because she hardly ever saw King Jing smile, and she always had a cold face. Therefore, in Xu's mother's mind, King Jing was definitely a vassal king who loved beheading people.
"speak."
Mother Xu took a deep breath and told herself that if this matter can be accomplished, it will be a great achievement, and the future prosperity and wealth will be in front of her eyes. The whole Jingzhou will definitely let her unhindered, and slowly speak her words.
"Min women have been delivering babies for a long time. In the early years, they also delivered for many poor families. Those poor families have difficulty in filling their stomachs, and they can't afford a wet nurse when they give birth to children. I see a lot of babies who are weak due to the lack of nutrition during pregnancy…”
Because what she said was too far from this matter, and words that should not enter the ears of nobles, Xu's mother hesitated more and more, and in the end she was completely silent.
How could other people not understand what Xu's mother meant, she must be afraid that what she said would make King Jing angry, or that what she said would make people unacceptable.
"Continue." King Jing said: "The solitary king forgives you."
Mother Xu knelt down and kowtowed, and then continued: "Those babies are small and big, fat and thin, the smallest one that a woman has ever seen is only one palm long, which is smaller than the young master and the young lady. In a rich family, such a baby is not easy to support, but in rural villages, most of these frail babies can grow up. After a lot of research, the women found out that these babies were born. They were all breastfed."
"The newborn baby must be breastfed. You can say that all the nurses our family prepares for the little boy and the little lady are good nurses." Fu Shun said.
"Nanny's milk is not breast milk, breast milk is mother's milk..."
Mother Xu didn't finish the rest of the words, but everyone understood what she meant, which is to let the lady feed herself.
"It's absurd, not to mention our prince's mansion, it's a wealthy family with a small wealth. After giving birth, a woman also hires a wet nurse to feed her. There's no reason to let the lady feed it herself." Fu Shun's face was full of anger.
Mother Xu was so frightened that she thumped and knelt again.
Aunt Qi said on the side, "Don't scold her, it's not unreasonable what she said."
"What's the point?" Fushun frowned and asked back.
"Which family could afford a wet nurse when we were young, they were all brought up by grandma. And those children in the village were not all raised by their own mothers."
"How can we compare with the lady!"
How can you not compare, they are all people.
It's just that at that time, the family was poor, how could they act like the rich family? First, they didn't have that kind of thinking, and second, they didn't have the conditions. Therefore, the poor family raised their children by themselves, and everyone regarded this kind of thinking as normal.
But now that the identity has changed, the status has changed, and the world they are in contact with is different. It is all about wealth and honor. The masters are served by servants in everything they do, and their babies are also fed by wet nurses, so I feel that this is the right way.
But what exactly is the right way, but it varies from person to person and from time to time.
"The slaves also think it's feasible. The reason why the wife made her so diligent in exercising when she was pregnant was because she was afraid that her physical strength would be insufficient. The poor people have no such need, because they all have to work, even during pregnancy. It can't be avoided. Moreover, in poor families, it is rarely heard that children are not easy to raise, most of them die because they are not able to raise them, but because they are sick and have no money for medical care or cannot live." He said.
Xiaohua also came from a poor background. She had too many hardships when she was a child. Although she didn't understand this, it didn't prevent her from feeling very reasonable.
"Needless to say, that's it, I'll feed it myself."
King Jing kept frowning and did not speak. After listening to Xiaohua's words, he said, "Disadvantages."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Mammy He took the lead in reacting, "Uh, Madam may have a harder time, because babies have an indefinite amount of milk, and they need to eat when they are hungry. Some wear and tear, just pay attention to make up for it. And..." After a pause, she said hesitantly: "It may damage your posture."
The front is not a problem, the last one is it. After all, which woman doesn't pay attention to her body, especially in the royal environment and the identity of Mrs. Hua.
The concubine of Israel's servants, without a sultry figure, how can she guarantee her husband's favor.
"It's okay." This was Xiao Hua's voice.
King Jing turned his head to look at her, Xiao Hua twitched her eyelashes and whispered with a blushing face, "Your Highness, don't despise me..."
He touched her hair and said softly, "No."
***
So things settled down.
Later, after discussing with Mama He and Mama Xu, it was adjusted to feed the flowers by themselves during the day, and the nurse would take care of and breastfeed them at night.
After the matter was finalized, Aunt He threw away the milk-returning medicine prescribed by Hu Liangyi in advance. After breastfeeding Xiaohua, she feeds the child herself during the day.
Fortunately, although Xiaohua didn't get any major nutrition during pregnancy, Mammy He pinched very well and didn't damage her body. After breastfeeding, I found that the quality of the milk was not bad, although the quantity was not much, but now the two babies are still small, but it is enough for them to eat.
As for the future, it's better to make up more. This is Mammy He's strength.
The child's third washing was not a big deal. Xiaohua was still worried about the child when she became a mother. She held a meeting in the main hall outside the delivery room. It was hosted by Xu's mother, Jing Wang watched on, and Fushun Qi's aunt, He Mama, Lilac, etc. were all there. .
It stands to reason that after the child is washed three times, Xu's mother, who is the midwife, can leave Jingwang's mansion.
Mother Xu wondered for a few days, but she didn't see any movement. She asked Mammy He carefully, but Mammy He didn't answer her.
The next day, she was called away by Fushun, and she didn't know what to say. Since then, Mother Xu never mentioned leaving, but wholeheartedly led the West Courtyard to wait.
Aunt Qi has added a lot of well-trained palace servants to the west courtyard. Xiaohua has added five next to her. In addition to the four nurses, the little son and the young lady have added eight palace staff, and the four are waiting around like the nurse while the others are doing errands.
Fortunately, the west courtyard is big enough now, otherwise it really can't live there.
Xiaohua's confinement was slowly passed by confinement and breastfeeding the two children. In fact, it was not as hard as Mama He said. After all, there were many people around her.
The only thing that made it difficult for her to accept was that she had to eat a lot of greasy tonics, and they had no taste. After eating it for a few days, Xiaohua couldn't take it anymore, but for the sake of her body and breastfeeding, she could only hold her nose and eat hard.
As for King Jing, men in the delivery room were not allowed to enter, but the taboo was broken on the day of delivery, and when King Jing came back, no one would say anything. It's just that I still can't rest here overnight, so Xiaohua still lives in the east wing for the time being, while King Jing lives in the main room, but King Jing will come to see Xiaohua sooner or later when he is free, and accompany her to accompany the child.
King Jing came over this day, just as Xiaohua was breastfeeding the child.
It's been less than ten days, and the two little babies have changed a lot. She was still small, but her skin was no longer red but turned pale, her eyebrows and eyes widened a little, she looked much prettier than when she was born, and her cry was a little stronger.
Xiaohua deeply felt that Xu's mother said a good way, and rewarded her with a lot of good things.
As soon as King Jing came in, Xiao Hua turned away.
"Oh, Your Highness, why did you suddenly come in?"
King Jing didn't understand the meaning and approached.
"Your Highness, why don't you sit outside for a while before coming in? I'm breastfeeding my daughter."
Over there, she was twisted and shy, but King Jing realized here that she was shy
Why
"No problem." He thought she was afraid of getting in the way, but he didn't think it would get in the way at all.
King Jing said so, Xiaohua could only sit up, but her hands were still half-covered.
"Block what?" King Jing saw Xiao Hua brought a piece of tulle over to cover his daughter's face, "Don't cover it." He pulled the tulle away as he spoke.
"oops… "
Helpless, the whole situation can only be presented in the eyes of King Jing.
Bai Bai Chuan was a big ball of pink, and was held in half by someone's hands because it was too bulging. The daughter Bai Bai's small face, small eyebrows and eyes, and a small mouth that was not too big tried to suck.
"It's so big." King Jing's eyebrows were half-twisted, his mouth seemed to sigh and murmur, but there was no fluctuation on his face.
Xiaohua blushed, as if she was about to drip blood. She was still holding her free hand with her free hand, for fear that her breasts would be too big to block her daughter's breath. Her whole body was stiff.
King Jing was still a little unconscious, and looked closer, "Daughter Bai, just like you."
Xiao Hua froze and looked down, it was the same.
After a while, the little girl smashed her mouth twice, spit out the nipple, and some milk overflowed from her small mouth.
Lilac, who was standing beside her, also had a blushing look, and felt that His Highness was so reckless when he spoke. Seeing this, he quickly took a clean cotton kerchief and wiped the little lady's mouth, and handed it to Ding Lan to hold it.
Now, the three personal palace servants next to Xiaohua are very familiar with holding their children, because Xiaohua does not want others to be present when she is breastfeeding. Only these three people who serve her closely can get close.
The little girl was very obedient, and continued to fall asleep after feeding without crying. These two babies are very obedient and rarely cry, probably because they are too young.
After feeding the little girl, it's the little boy's turn. At this moment, Xiaohua can completely forget about the psychological obstacles. It's not that he hasn't seen it anyway, and it will only happen more in the future. Be shy every time.
King Jing originally had no distractions, but his eyes deepened when he looked at it, feeling a little jealous of his son.
"He eats so much." After a while, he seemed to explain, "My daughter only eats that much."
Seeing that he had been studying his son's feeding, Xiaohua was very speechless and explained in a low voice, "When you didn't come in, my daughter ate some."
King Jing snorted and said nothing.
After finally feeding, Xiaohua hurriedly stuffed her son to Lilac, and she didn't want to let go as usual. Instead, he pulled up the placket, touched the head cloth wrapped around his head, and touched his face.
"Mother He doesn't let me take a bath, I feel like I'm all dirty."
"Listen to Mother He."
Seeing that his attitude was natural and he didn't show any disgust, Xiao Hua could only nod his head while pretending to be okay.
"have a look."
King Jing took a piece of paper out of his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Hua.
"what?"
"Didn't you say it's inconvenient not to have a name? Ye, the meaning of Ming, the meaning of the rising sun. Yi, the meaning of beauty."
Hearing this, Xiaohua knew that it was the name for her son and daughter.
She looked at it, and recited it several times in her heart. She felt that it was very good, and he got it all well, so she nodded with a smile.
She suddenly remembered that she still did not know King Jing's name, and asked, "What's His Highness's name?"
King Jing took her hand and wrote in her hand, "Jing, Luo Jing."
Xiaohua squeezed her palm and smiled, and pulled King Jing's hand over to draw on it.
"Tao, Tao Xiaohua." After speaking, Xiaohua had the urge to cover her face. Compared with King Jing, her name was really earthy.
"It's a little dirty," she said sternly.
"No soil." He touched her face, "Little flower, little peach blossom."
Xiaohua's cheeks are like fire, and her heart is shy and sweet.
Who said King Jing was clumsy? Who said His Highness was not good at words? Why every time he said something made her happy.
This is also a kind of love story!
Especially every time he said this, his face was always stiff, although it made people feel a little unbearable, but he was full of confidence that he was not a lie.
This man, the way he expresses is so different from other people, but what should she do if she likes it so much? !
The author has something to say: ps: hehe, the name of our female protagonist is soil, but the male protagonist likes it (proud face)
The name is incompetent, and a relative said that Yi is good, then Yi. As for Ye, he thought about it face to face, taking the meaning of the rising sun, →_→ King Jing's ambition.
