After giving birth to triplets, Shu Shu warned herself not to be partial.
But she discovered that people's hearts are still biased.
Just like this morning, the Ningshou Palace was busy for a long time. The old grandmother took a bunch of grandsons and daughters-in-law, and the granddaughters were enjoying themselves.
Shu Shu thought of Mrs. Bo in her heart.
Eni has Amma and sons, and in the future there will be daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and granddaughters.
Mrs. Bo only has herself.
Madame Bo is ten years younger than the Queen Mother, but she looks almost the same.
She came over to accompany him.
In Ning'an Hall, Mrs. Bo's voice was full of joy: "Ni Guzhu is so powerful, he can even stand up."
Ni Guzhu was holding on to the window sill, grinning and drooling, with a bit of pride in his little eyes.
Shu Shu stood at the door, which was different from the deserted loneliness she imagined.
Nigu Zhu was on the kang, which was messy and scattered with various small toys of Nigu Zhu.
"Ah, ah..."
Hearing the movement at the door, both the old and the young looked over.
Ni Guzhu immediately stopped holding on to the window sill, shouted, and crawled to the edge of the kang on his hands and feet.
Shu Shu quickly walked a few steps to catch her and held her in her arms.
It's meaty and hot, and feels like a small stove in your arms.
Ni Guzhu was not honest and reached out to touch her arms.
Shu Shu hurriedly held down her little arm and looked at Mrs. Bo.
"Amu, haven't you already been eating complementary foods? Are you still hungry so quickly?"
Mrs. Bo glanced at the clock and said, "I just ate at noon. It's only been an hour. Let's feed it again."
The nanny was waiting next to her, and she took Niguzhu in her arms and went to breastfeed her.
Mrs. Bo looked at Shu Shu and said: "I was about to tell you, should I add two milk nannies to Ni Guzhu? The same goes for Feng Sheng and Akdan. There are chickens and fish every day, but this milk is not enough."
It’s been a year, so it’s thinner. I’m almost hungry these days..."
Nowadays, when raising a child, weaning is required at the age of three, and sometimes it is delayed until the age of six in the palace.
Shu Shu was a little numb and had never thought about the change of nanny.
Previously, I thought about adding complementary foods at six months and weaning off milk at one and a half to two years old.
These nannies are all selected from women who are two to three months postpartum.
We inquired about the background, character, and behavior in advance, and then carefully selected them.
As soon as she fell silent, Mrs. Bo's face became serious and said: "How to raise a child, you must follow the old rules. Don't think about what comes out. Back then, you were weaned on your birthday, and your body was not strong. You can't say it."
It’s because of early weaning.”
Shu Shu said honestly: "Listen to A Mou, I just regret that I didn't think of this. I will discuss it with Master Jiu in the evening and choose a few more from the Baoyi population."
Mrs. Bo looked better now and said: "Ni Guzhu looks strong, that's all for looking at. You should be more careful. The same goes for Fengsheng and his brothers."
Children born with multiples are born prematurely, which is different from children born with singletons.
Shu Shu has no objection.
She remembered that children at the age of three could drink fresh milk.
Until then, just use the nanny if you can.
At this time, it is very important to have a good physical foundation.
If you are not in good health, you may die in your teens or live a short life in your twenties.
After a while, Ni Guzhu came over after finishing feeding.
No one needs to be coaxed, the little guy is really happy again on his own.
She no longer needed to be hugged by Shu Shu, she quickly climbed onto the kang, supported the window sill, stood up unsteadily, and then patted the window sill to attract the attention of Shu Shu and Mrs. Bo.
Mrs. Bo cheered and said: "Ni Guzhu is so amazing, he can even stand up."
Ni Guzhu chuckled, showing four millet teeth, and looked at Shu Shu again.
Shu Shu looked at her triumphant attitude and felt that she looked very familiar.
"Yeah..." Seeing that Shu Shu didn't respond, Ni Guzhu shouted.
Mrs. Bo hurriedly patted Shu Shu and urged: "Hurry up and praise me, I'm waiting for you to praise me..."
Shu Shu could only imitate Mrs. Bo and praise her.
"Giggle, giggle..." Ni Guzhu smiled happily. Not only did he stand, he also moved his little feet and held on to the window sill to walk.
I just lacked strength in my legs and feet, so when my calves were crooked, I sat down and squatted on my butt.
Mrs. Bo was startled and rushed forward to hug her.
Ni Guzhu had already stood up again, holding on to the window sill, and was competing with himself.
Madam Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
Shu Shu was by the side and couldn't help but mumbled: "It's all meat, what do you have to worry about? Does it still hurt?"
Mrs. Bo looked at Shu Shu and said, "It doesn't hurt. It's painful to be frightened."
Shu Shu couldn't remember when she was young. She just looked at Ni Guzhu's face and said, "Has this habit of listening to good words just followed Master Jiu?"
Mrs. Bo snorted softly: "I still have the nerve to rely on Master Jiu. I will ask you later if Eni is the same as you were when you were a child!"
Shu Shu didn't quite believe it and said, "Did Ah Mou lie to me? Why do I think I've always been sensible and well-behaved?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Bo couldn't help but smile and said: "I guess he was four or five years old. He was like a young adult. He had to be reasonable before he started to become quieter. His temper before was very domineering. He deserves praise. With Fusong
, even if we are together, we should praise you first and praise you more before we can praise them again."
Shu Shu sneered, this is all dark history, we can turn over it.
At Shenchu, Ni Guzhu was tired from playing and wanted to take a nap.
Mrs. Bo was also a little weak in energy, so Shu Shu came back from Ning'an Hall.
Previously, there were six nannies for the three brothers and sisters. If they wanted to replace them, six would be the best, and at least three would be the minimum.
Shu Shu called Aunt Xing and said she wanted to choose Aunt Xing again.
Aunt Xing responded and said: "Fu Jin, would you like to call one of my nuns over here..."
Her family was raising Xianglan's children on her behalf, and they arranged for two nannies to come directly from the Prince's Mansion.
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "No, the nanny can still be used at the moment, but Niguzhu eats a lot and gets hungry easily. I'm thinking of changing to a nanny. The juice can be thicker. You don't have to choose whether it's a boy or a girl. It's not the first time."
That’s fine, the age can be relaxed to under twenty-five.”
Aunt Xing understood what Shu Shu meant. As long as it was a new mother, the rest could be relaxed.
She responded, and without any delay, she took a carriage and headed to the imperial city. She went directly to the two left collars and an internal steward who were under the name of Ninth Prince to lead the family.
They have a population booklet of the left leader and principal leader.
By looking at the booklet, you can know which house has pregnant women.
Coincidentally, within three months, several women actually gave birth.
In addition to the two older mothers in their thirties, and a 16-year-old new daughter-in-law who gave birth to her first child, there are four more mothers, one of whom is in confinement, and three of whom are postpartum, two months after delivery.
to March.
It was getting late today, so Grandma Xing did not go to those women's houses, but went back to the Prince's Mansion with the information.
Brother Jiu has come back. Hearing that Niguzhu's milk was not enough, he immediately felt distressed and said, "What about goat milk and deer milk? Can I drink it?"
He knew that children should not drink milk because they would have diarrhea.
Shu Shu said: "It's not as good as human milk, so I'd better switch to a breast milk..."
This will also prevent the nurse from wearing out her baby and causing her to grow bigger in the future.
Brother Jiu also thought of Nanny Liu and said, "If they are released, they will be rewarded with money. The nanny will use what she has now, so don't let them be nannies."
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Well, when the new nanny gets the hang of it, she will let her go."
Most of the people who live in prison are assigned officials according to the left collar or the leader.
Therefore, that night, several families with pregnant women knew that the Prince's Mansion was going to choose a new nipple.
For the women in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the royal nipple is a pros and cons.
The annual salary is twenty-four taels of silver, twenty-four tons of rice, five bolts of silk and satin, and six bolts of cotton and linen.
In addition, twelve taels of silver were given to them to hire a wet nurse to take care of their children.
In this way, after one year, it will be thirty-six taels of silver, which is the same as the annual salary of the Eight Banners vest.
All four families have expectations.
The next day, Grandma Xing came over to choose someone.
I looked at the people living next to me. They were all young wives in their twenties, but they were all clean and tidy.
None of the men from this family committed any crime.
Grandma Xing told the mother-in-law of the woman who was in confinement: "Confinement well, take care of yourself carefully. When it's two months old, go to the Prince's Mansion to try out my job with me."
The mother-in-law happily agreed.
Aunt Xing took the other three people back to the Prince's Mansion.
It just so happened that Imperial Physician Jiang came over today to ask for Ping'an pulse at the Prince's Mansion, so he asked him to see three women. They were all healthy and had no other diseases.
Although the new nanny was chosen because of Ni Guzhu, when they were assigned, there were still three brothers and one sister each.
You need to try feeding for two days to see if the children get used to it.
I couldn't find six at the moment, but I had three replacements, which was enough for the time being.
After the New Year, another nipple comes in, and you can just give Niguzhu directly.
There are already complementary foods to follow, and one nanny is enough for Fengsheng and Akdan.
After three days, Mrs. Bo and Aunt Qi both nodded and said it was okay.
Fengsheng and Akdan are not obvious here, but Niguzhu is very obvious.
In the past, when I woke up, I would be able to breastfeed within an hour, but now it can be delayed to one and a half to two hours.
Shu Shu changed the people around the children, selected one of the two previous nannies, and released one.
The one who was released from Ning'an Hall, but the milk supply could not be supplied, and had already asked for the milk back, was rewarded with forty taels of silver and four pieces of cloth.
The two released from the back room had some minor flaws in their character.
One was Fengsheng's nanny. Because Fengsheng was the eldest son, she became a little frivolous and had to be taught a lesson by Aunt Qi before she became honest.
The other was Akdan's nanny, who hid Akdan's toys secretly.
The three of them got the reward and came over to kowtow to Shu Shu.
Shu Shu was not seen.
The one who went out from Ning'antang was a Manchurian. He spoke Manchu fluently and acted honestly.
Shu Shu has already made a note of this person. If she has a child later, she will choose this person as a nanny and come in as an errand.
Forget about the other two, they have bad hearts and cannot enter the house again.
How can anyone hide the happenings in the imperial city?
Within a few days, all the mansions got the news. They knew that the Ninth Prince's mansion had to replenish its nipples and could not find a suitable one among the servants, so it was dealing with the servants.
Yes, according to the royal requirements, two of the three new nuns who came in were unqualified. One was a second-time pregnant woman, not a third-time pregnant woman; the other was twenty-two years old and was too old.
In everyone's eyes, this is too much to deal with...
