The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 1248: clean
Chapter 1248 Clean
“Don’t worry. Yesterday, we said that the two children vomited milk and didn’t eat. That was all told to outsiders! Although the two children are weak, especially Kang Le, they will definitely get better with Doctor Huang here.” Dong patted the children in her arms and whispered to Bai Qing, “Doctor Huang prescribed some warm tonic medicine and medicinal food for the two children’s nurses. He will slowly regulate the bodies of the two children with **. I think this method is very good.”
Bai Qingyan looked at her sleeping daughter’s face, feeling distressed, and gently put her on the bed.
“Mother, let the two children sleep with me tonight!” Bai Qingyan said.
“The child has just been born and needs to be fed several times a night. You won’t be able to rest well if you leave him next to you! Have you forgotten what you promised A Yan, that you would take good care of yourself for A Yan!” Mrs. Dong knew that Bai Qingyan was worried about the child, so she whispered to him, “Listen to your mother and have a good rest. The wet nurse will take care of the child in the side room. After you have completed the two months of confinement, your mother will have no objection to you taking care of the child yourself.”
“Mother, can we just do it tonight?” Bai Qingyan couldn’t bear to leave her two children.
Dong stared at Bai Qingyan, but after a long while her heart softened, thinking back to when she had just given birth to Bai Qingyan, she was reluctant to let her wet nurse take her away.
“Okay! Okay! Just for tonight and one night…” Dong carefully placed the sleeping Xile in her arms next to Bai Qingyan, and reminded Nanny Tong and the wet nurse to stay alert at night.
After Dong left, Bai Qingyan leaned against Yinnang and looked at the two children sleeping in the bed. She didn’t know whether these two children looked more like her or Xiao Rongyan.
Later she remembered a saying that nephews resemble their uncles. She could no longer remember what Ayu looked like when he was just born.
She pulled the quilt for the two children, and her heart was heavy again. She didn’t know whether A Yan, A Qi, Jin Xiu and the others had rescued A Yu and Xiao Qi.
Newborn babies wake up frequently at night to be fed…and have their diapers changed.
Bai Qingyan was the first to wake up as soon as the child started crying. When Nanny Tong and the wet nurse came in, they saw Bai Qingyan already holding the child in his arms.
When one of the twins woke up crying, the other one followed suit.
The wet nurse took the two children to feed and change their diapers. Nanny Tong advised Bai Qingyan to lie down and sleep for a while, but just as Nanny Dong expected, Bai Qingyan was awakened and could not fall asleep again.
The baby was slow to eat milk, so Bai Qingyan waited for a long time… and couldn’t help but worry about the war situation in Xiliang, so he said to Tong Mama: “Mama… please get me a map of Xiliang.”
Tong Ma Ma looked embarrassed and said, “My dear, please don’t embarrass me. The Madam asked Butler Hao to move all the maps and books away from your room, fearing that you might damage your eyes during the confinement period.”
Dong, who couldn’t sleep at night and was worried, was about to open the curtain to come in when she heard Bai Qingyan asking for a map. She stepped into the room, opened the curtain and walked in, and said to Bai Qingyan with a stern face: “What map are you looking for? You have to be careful when you are in confinement. You can’t hold the baby too long, or you will get wrist pain in the future!”
Seeing the wet nurse bring the child in after feeding, Dong quickly took over, held the child and sat beside Bai Qingyan’s bed.
Bai Qingyan also took his son from the wet nurse.
“Mother, I’m just used to it, so I asked Tong Mama to help me find a map of Xiliang!” Bai Qingyan was still worried about the battlefield in Xiliang… worried about Ayu and Xiaoqi. She glanced at the daughter in her mother’s arms, “Mother, you’re still blaming me, but you came here in the middle of the night and held the child tightly.”
“There’s a saying that goes ‘you’d rather hold your grandson than your child!’” Mrs. Dong looked at her little grandson with a doting smile on her face, and turned to persuade her daughter, “You promised me not to have any random thoughts and take good care of yourself during the confinement period. Besides… you have to believe that Qi and the others can rescue Yu and Xiaoqi! I believe that with Yu and Xiaoqi’s intelligence, they will definitely be able to turn the danger into safety.”
Dong paused and continued, “You must also believe in A Yan!”
Bai Qingyan raised his eyes and looked towards his mother: “Mother… do you believe in A Yan?”
“Mother believes it! Even A-Yu believes in his brother-in-law, why doesn’t Mother believe it?”
Mrs. Dong has let go of what happened in the past. Although she was angry with Xiao Rongyan for making her daughter pregnant, Xiao Rongyan later went to Jiangzi City to rescue her daughter. Thinking of what Murong Yan said to Bai Qingyan, and looking at the pair of lovely grandchildren in her arms now, how could Mrs. Dong not like Xiao Rongyan?
She recalled the look of longing for family affection in Xiao Rongyan’s eyes when he called her mother. She felt heartbroken when she thought about it now. Without his mother at such a young age, Xiao Rongyan’s life… must have been very hard!
Mrs. Dong couldn’t help but feel sorry for her son-in-law. She thought that when her son-in-law came back, she would be a good mother to him.
“At a young age, he left his motherland to work for it, traveling to various countries. With his humble identity as a businessman, he was able to move freely among the nobles of various countries!” Mrs. Dong heard about her son-in-law and admired him. “Ayan is amazing! But what I like most is… his feelings for Abao!”
A smile appeared between Bai Qingyan’s eyebrows.
“Look, your brother and sister…your husband are leading troops on the front line, what do you have to worry about? Mother also needs to learn to be at ease and trust you children!” Mrs. Dong said with a smile, “Mother knows that you are the eldest sister and have always taken it as your responsibility to take care of your brothers and sisters. You have done a good job, and mother is very pleased!”
Bai Qingyan nodded.
Dong lowered her eyes and looked at her granddaughter in her arms. She whispered, as if she was talking to Bai Qingyan, or to herself: “When your father was alive, he was always worried about you rushing around on the battlefield. No matter how powerful you were… he was always worried! Later… because you chased after General Pang of Shu alone, your father got angry and ignored you. It was your grandfather who advised your father that baby birds will eventually grow up. If you don’t let the baby birds fly, how can you know that they can fly higher than their parents!”
“The same goes for you, Abao… You should let all your brothers and sisters, including Ayu and Xiaoqi, gain experience and spread their wings on their own. And you should believe that they will fly higher and more steadily than you expect! Don’t worry too much! A Niang has always told herself this.”
“Mother, I’ll remember it!” Bai Qingyan said seriously to Dong.
As soon as Bai Qingyan finished speaking, Nanny Qin came in through the curtains and whispered, “Madam, the eldest lady… Madam Wu sent a message saying that someone has moved in the palace!”
She raised her eyes and said in a cold voice: “It’s better if they move. I’m just afraid that they won’t move!”
This time, Dong took the little grandson and the little princess out of the palace and lived in Bai Mansion. Dong and the fifth wife Qi also took advantage of this incident and wanted to clean up the palace.
