According to current customs, women who have given birth to children mostly stay in the delivery room for confinement. After the confinement is completed, they will move back to the original house.
The Xie Mansion is now a new wealthy man in the capital, and the situation in the mansion is far better than before. There are also more people serving in the inner house than before.
Mrs. Sun has not given birth yet, but the house has already prepared two wet nurses with sufficient milk supply. There are also six maids to serve her.
However, Mrs. Sun couldn't bear to part with her daughter and insisted on feeding her herself. In the next two or three days, the nurse took the baby into the delivery room and took her away after she was full.
It is considered unlucky for a woman to have her period of confinement. In some more sophisticated families, men are not allowed to go near the delivery room during this month...
Of course Xie Yuanting is not included in this list.
He was personally present during the entire delivery process, and entering the delivery room was nothing.
Anyway, he is a useless person, he can't pass the imperial examination and can't be an official. It doesn't matter if he is beaten to death or something.
Xie Yuanting's leg is not too lame, but he always walks slower than ordinary people. He is also used to a slow and lazy pace. When he went to see his daughter, he walked very fast in excitement. He didn't care about his ugly posture.
.
Mrs. Sun is in good health and recovered quickly after giving birth. On the third day, she was already able to sit up on the bed. She held the baby in her arms and the baby licked her little mouth very enthusiastically.
Sun felt a little stinging, but more so she felt the joy and happiness of becoming a mother for the first time. Her delicate and delicate face, which was slightly indifferent, was also particularly charming because of its tenderness.
Xie Yuanting pushed the door open and saw this scene.
Such beautiful scenery is mesmerizing.
Xie Yuanting stopped subconsciously and stared at his wife and daughter silently, feeling tenderness in his heart.
He has always been afraid of the Sun family like a tiger, and he has sworn many poisonous oaths in private. He must be patient and wait for the opportunity to completely suppress the fierce Sun family. It would be better if he could divorce her and marry a gentle and beautiful wife...
Now, for the sake of Mrs. Sun’s ten-month pregnancy and hard work in giving birth to her daughter, let’s forget about the idea of divorcing his wife! As long as Mrs. Sun calms down and be a good wife and stops beating and scolding him frequently...
Sun raised her head and glared at Xie Yuanting: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you come over quickly?"
This fierce tigress!
Xie Yuanting snorted deeply in his heart, with an attentive smile on his face: "Okay, okay, I'll come right away."
…
Sun's milk supply was sufficient, and the child was full quickly.
Xie Yuanting carefully took the child from Sun's hands. He was clumsy at first, and after holding it for three days, he is now more familiar with the posture. Xie Yuanting specially adjusted a comfortable position to make the child lie more comfortably in his arms.
The child opened his mouth, squinted his eyes, and slept soundly.
The more Xie Yuanting looked at her, the more he liked her. He grinned and praised, "Look at my daughter, how white her skin is, how big her eyes are, how plump and beautiful she is."
How can you tell how beautiful a baby girl is when she is only three days old?
Mrs. Sun listened happily and agreed with a smile: "That's right. My daughter is born like you, with a good appearance. I just hope that my daughter will be smarter and smarter, and her brain will not follow yours."
Xie Yuanting: "..."
Xie Yuanting twitched the corner of his mouth and silently recited "A man should not care about women" several times.
Mrs. Sun didn't notice Xie Yuanting's anger at all, and even if she did, she wouldn't take it to heart. She smiled and said, "When the child is one month old, it's time to decide on a name."
Xie Yuanting came back to his senses: "I have already thought of a name, let's call it..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Sun: "I have thought about it, and I will ask the Queen to give me a name!"
Xie Yuanting: "..."
Xie Yuanting silently recited "A man should not care about women" several times in his mind. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and angrily resisted: "Why should my own daughter be named by someone else?"
Mrs. Sun glared at her and said, "How honorable and honorable it is to be given a name by the Empress. It will be a blessing for our daughter to tell people about it in the future. Everyone will look up to our daughter. What name do you choose, can you be as good as the Empress?"
?”
Xie Yuanting's handsome face turned red with anger: "You are really unreasonable!"
Sun continued to glare: "I'm just unreasonable. What's wrong? Did you hear what I said?"
Xie Yuanting said angrily: "I heard it."
…
Half a month later, Mrs. Xu handed over the notice and went into Jiaofang Hall to pay her respects.
Xie Mingxi saw Xu's face full of joy and asked with a smile: "Grandma is so happy, could it be that there is another happy event in the house?"
Mrs. Xu smiled from ear to ear: "Isn't that right? Yuan Zhou wrote a letter back, saying that Mrs. Zhou is pregnant again and the fetus is stable. Two days ago, Mrs. Yu also diagnosed her happy pulse."
The addition of a new child is of course a happy event.
The Xie family has no foundation in the capital and no clan members, so it can be said that the number of people is small. Fortunately, the two daughters-in-law of the second wife are very good at it.
A few months after Yu Wan entered the family, there was good news. The Zhou family had given birth to two sons, and maybe this year the Xie family would have another heir.
Xie Mingxi actually doesn't care about her natal family. However, it is always a good thing that Xie's family is prosperous.
Xie Mingxi smiled and said: "Grandma is a blessed person, and the second wife of the Xie family is even more likely to be prosperous."
She was a prostitute who was born in the market. She fell in love with Mr. Xie's handsome face, so she married Mr. Xie and had a second marriage. She never thought that she would be as prosperous as she is today.
Xie Ming changed his surname when he was young and is now the serious Mr. Xie. Yuan Zhou and Yuan Wei are both promising and good sons.
Mrs. Xu stretched out her old face and grinned: "This is all thanks to the Queen's blessing."
After joking for a while, Mrs. Xu laughed in a low voice and said: "Actually, I came to the palace today because I was entrusted by my grandson's wife. In ten days, the child will be one month old. There is always a full moon wedding banquet in the palace."
"The Queen is one of the most blessed people in the world. Mrs. Sun wanted to ask the Queen to name her child. I also thought this was a beautiful thing, so I came to the palace shamelessly."
Xie Mingxi smiled and agreed: "Okay, I agree to this matter."
Give the Xie family some dignity, you can do it by raising your hand. Xie Mingxi will not be stingy.
The prerequisite is that the Xie family should be honest and peaceful and not be too greedy.
Mrs. Xu was overjoyed when she heard this and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you so much, Queen."
On the day when the child was one month old, the Xie Mansion was packed with guests, including some respectable people in the capital, all came to congratulate him. It was extremely lively.
This time, Princess A Luo did not come to the Xie Mansion in person. However, Queen Xie gave generous rewards and personally named her niece, which also made the Xie family very prosperous.
The only person in the Xie family who was dissatisfied was Xie Yuanting.
Xie Yuanting held his daughter, who was just one month old, and complained angrily:
"Xie Zijin! What's so nice about this name? It's not as good as the name I gave you. This girl's family is full of treasures, so it would be nice to call her Xie Baozhu!"
