At four o'clock in the afternoon, the child finished feeding and fell asleep again.
The two little guys are very well-behaved. As long as they are full, they don't cry at all. They sleep most of the time, twenty-four hours a day.
As soon as the child fell asleep, Li Zijuan urged Xu Zhiyi:
"Quick, girl, don't look at the baby. While the baby is asleep, hurry up and fall asleep too.
When they are hungry at night, you have to get up to feed them. Even if you have a confinement nanny, you still have to do the feeding. You have to get up almost every two hours, and you have to pay two at a time, which is enough to make you tired.
The days are going to be long in the future. If you can't sleep well, you won't be able to recover well during the confinement period. If you fall ill, it won't be better. Be obedient and lie down to sleep. "
Xu Zhiyi lay still beside the child's nap bed, staring at the child and muttering dissatisfiedly:
"Mom, I don't want to sleep now. Please let me watch for a while. During the day, everyone is rushing to take care of the baby. Except when breastfeeding, it is not my turn to hold the baby.
This will finally allow me to watch the baby quietly for a while.
Mom, why do you think my baby is so cute?
Really like two beautiful little angels.
Octavia and I can't get enough of it. "
Li Zijuan came over and looked at the child with her. Her eyes were full of unconcealable love and she couldn't help but admire:
"To be honest, Mom has never seen a prettier baby than these two. Don't tell me. The more I look at these two babies, the more I feel that everyone is right. They have inherited the traits of everyone in the Mingxu family. Advantages, can it not be beautiful?”
Xu Zhiyi's eyebrows arched and she nodded in agreement, "Yeah, yeah, that's right, Mom, why do you think my childbirth skills are so good? I even admire myself."
Li Zijuan was made to laugh by her and glared at her, "Listen to what you are talking about. Okay, stop reading, drink the fish soup, go to bed, go to bed."
At her urging, Xu Zhiyi stood up reluctantly, walked to the small table, took the fish soup brought by Li Zijuan, wrinkled his face, held his breath, and drank it in one gulp.
In order to produce milk for her child, she drank everything from crucian carp soup, black-bone chicken soup, pig's trotters soup, squab soup, whitebait shredded pork soup, etc.
On weekdays, I never stop taking supplements such as bird's nest, abalone, and donkey-hide gelatin, but I can't eat too much. If I eat some of them, my child will have diarrhea.
After drinking the crucian carp soup, Xu Zhiyi returned to bed and said worriedly:
"Mom, you said that if I eat like this, my milk supply has not increased much. The baby is still in confinement and has never had a full meal. What if the baby is older and it is not enough?"
Li Zijuan smacked her tongue, pointed at her breasts and said in confusion:
"It's also strange. It looks big and round, but why does it have no milk?
Hey, it’s okay. It’s not that there’s nothing we can do. It’s really not possible. It’s not like we can’t afford it if all the children are fed milk powder.
Let me tell you, instead of leaving it like this, the baby won't be able to eat enough, and you have to get up at night to feed the baby, which makes it uncomfortable to drop both ends. It's better to wean the baby off early, so that you don't have to get up several times in the middle of the night to feed the baby. Neither slept well.
Once the milk is weaned, the baby will be taken care of by the confinement nurse at night. The most important thing is to sleep well and take good care of your body.
A caesarean section will take longer to recover than a normal birth, but you need to be careful. "
Xu Zhiyi said in shock: "Weaning? How can this be done? No, the child is not even one month old yet. I want to breastfeed the child."
Li Zijuan shook her head helplessly, "I'm just saying casually, how can it be broken so easily? Okay, girl, go to bed quickly."
After waiting for Xu Zhiyi to fall asleep, Li Zijuan stood in front of the two babies, studying them with a grin on her face.
Even though the Ming family invited a confinement nanny, Li Zijuan still felt uneasy and insisted on coming to the Ming family to serve Xu Zhiyi during the confinement period.
She doesn't have to worry about the child, her main concern is Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi also wanted Li Zijuan to come, not that she needed to do any work, but she felt at ease with Li Zijuan around.
Zhou Lan is actually quite worried.
But she had only raised one child, Octavia, and she didn't take care of him much after her maternity leave. She really didn't have much experience in taking care of babies.
He is also someone who has been in the officialdom for many years and is not used to doing things at home. He is really not good at assisting in raising children.
Except for the conductor, of course.
Besides, she is the mother-in-law after all, and there are some things that are difficult for a daughter-in-law to say to her.
It's nice to have my own mother here. If you have any needs, you can tell me directly and you won't feel awkward.
The confinement nanny is very professional, and combined with the confinement nanny’s modern parenting experience, it is not that difficult to take care of the child.
After all, it was still a problem with her milk.
The baby will be one month old in five days.
Considering that the child is still young and Xu Zhiyi's body is still weak, the Ming family did not plan to make a grand celebration of the child's full moon. Instead, they just gathered the direct relatives of the family to celebrate briefly.
The Children's Day is going to be a big deal.
Before six o'clock, Octavia came back from get off work.
It was already dark outside.
It was cold and when he got home, he was afraid that the air-conditioning on his body would hit the child, so he washed his hands carefully, stayed in the living room for a few minutes, waited for the air-conditioning on his body to dissipate, and rubbed his hands to warm them before going in to see the child.
When they entered, the confinement nanny was assisting Xu Zhiyi in breastfeeding the child.
Li Zijuan, Zhou Lan, and Feng Xiaoyu were all present.
The one who is sucking milk is my sister.
My sister took big gulps of milk for a while and was enjoying her meal. But she ran out of milk and couldn't suck it out. She was so anxious that she opened her little mouth, exposing her pink gums, and cried loudly.
My brother's reaction to this situation is different. He will cry, but not as impatiently as his sister. He will just moan softly.
From this point alone, we can see that there are two children, one is impatient and the other is chronic.
Seeing her sister crying, the confinement sister-in-law quickly took the prepared bottle and put the pacifier into her mouth.
The feeling of the pacifier was different from that of breastfeeding. When she put it in her mouth, she pushed it out with her little tongue, and then continued to curl her little tongue and cry.
Repeated this several times, but wouldn't eat.
My sister seemed angry and her face turned red from crying.
Xu Zhiyi looked distressed, looked at everyone, and said helplessly: "Every time I change the baby's pacifier and drink milk powder, they both cry like this. It doesn't taste good. What should I do?"
Of course they knew about this situation and were worried about it.
The two-month-old sisters-in-law each held a child and coaxed them, and continued to try to get them to eat milk powder.
Li Zijuan saw that the child had been tortured so much and that her girl was so tired that she was sweating profusely. Thinking that she still had wounds and seeing everyone there, she simply said:
"I think we should let Zhiyi wean the baby off the breast. Everyone has seen that she can't produce much milk no matter what she eats. It seems useless.
From now on, the child will only eat milk powder, so that the child does not have to toss back and forth. Zhiyi does not have to get up at night to feed the child. He can sleep well and recover quickly. What do you say, Octavia? "
Li Zijuan knew this because of Octavia's attitude.
Octavia became a father for the first time, so he had no experience and was trying to figure out many things.
Director Feng suggested that breastfeeding is most conducive to the healthy growth of the child. Even if the mother has less milk, mixed feeding is better than feeding with milk powder alone.
Xu Zhiyi also wanted to feed the baby by herself, so she never considered weaning.
In the past twenty days, Xu Zhiyi had to get up several times at night to feed the baby. It didn't matter if he could finish the feeding peacefully. Every night he would be struggling like today.
The torment made her wife and children tired.
Especially her wife, who was already weak after giving birth and couldn't sleep well at night. How could she recover if she continued like this?
He was actually thinking about this matter these days. When Li Zijuan said it, he immediately made a decision:
"Mom, you are right, I agree with you."
With that said, he sat next to Xu Zhiyi, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said:
"Honey, start weaning your child now. We won't be guilty of this. The child won't be so noisy after he gets used to eating milk powder.
Milk powder is also very nutritious. Children will not have any problems if they just eat milk powder. "
Xu Zhiyi looked at Feng Xiaoyu with a look of remorse.
She wanted to be a good mother to you and wanted her baby to grow up drinking her own breast milk, but she was too disappointed.
Feng Xiaoyu and Zhou Lan looked at each other, stepped forward to hold Xu Zhiyi's hand, and comforted:
"Granddaughter-in-law, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault for weaning your child.
Let me tell you, your aunt also had a caesarean section when she gave birth to Hua Yun. After Hua Yun was born, she didn’t get a single bite of her milk. She had no milk at all.
Hua Yun grew up eating milk powder. Can't you see that she looks good too?
Your mother is right, taking good care of your body is the most important thing.
Listen to grandma, stop it, stop it now, and you can sleep well from tonight on. "
The two confinement sisters were also happy when they heard this.
When the child makes such fuss every night, it would be easier for them to take care of it alone at night and only feed him milk powder.
Xu Zhiyi glanced around the crowd and suddenly patted his leg boldly, "Okay, off, I don't want to drink those soups and water anymore. I want to take a beauty sleep and start exercising to lose weight and skin care. I want to be as beautiful as before. I am considered ugly. enough."
Octavia couldn't help laughing and scratched her nose, "You are already a mother, and you still act like a child."
Her milk supply was low, and the lactation period passed without much discomfort.
On the day when the child was one month old, Feng Xiaoyu and Ming Liang officially named the child.
The elder brother's name is Mingcan, and the younger sister's name is Meiliang, which means that the child is as bright and bright as the sun.
Everyone said it was a good name.
After the child was one month old, Li Zijuan went back.
There is no need to feed the child at night, and her girl can have a good rest. As a mother, she has nothing to worry about, and there is no use staying in the Ming family.
From then on, Xu Zhiyi began her "spoilt" life of raising a baby.
It’s so nice to not have to breastfeed the baby.
It is really worry-free to have a confinement nanny to take care of the children.
There are many elderly people in the family. You help me and I help you, so she doesn’t have to worry about anything at all.
She had plenty of time to do some physical conditioning.
Octavia hired professional postpartum rehabilitation personnel to provide her with regular postpartum care and guide her in scientific exercises to help her recover as quickly as possible.
On the 100th day of the child's life, the Ming family hosted a banquet for guests. She must lose weight and become beautiful again, and stand beautifully in front of everyone.
She wants to make her ugly appearance a thing of the past as soon as possible.
Leisure and comfortable days always pass quickly.
The two babies thrived surrounded by love, and their little looks became more and more beautiful. As long as they eat well and sleep well, they smile when they see people.
Not to mention how likable it is.
Children who have been raised by multiple people do not recognize their own children. Although one of the two little guys is anxious and the other is slow, they are both cheerful children at first glance.
At three months on time, the older brother will turn over first, and three days later, the younger sister will also learn to turn over.
Feng Xiaoyu was overjoyed and sighed, "They say children flip over, sit up, and crawl. My great-grandson and great-granddaughter are really tough. When the time comes, they will be able to do everything. Well, at first glance, they are amazing children. Like their mother, blessed, blessed.”
A week later, on March 31, the Ming family held a grand 100-day banquet for the two babies, which was still held in the Little Red Mansion.
All invited guests were present to congratulate.
Xu Zhiyi's figure has recovered very well. She has been staying at home and rarely going out. Her skin is so white and tender that she can pinch water.
After giving birth to a child and becoming a mother, her eyebrows have a mature charm, which is particularly charming.
Director Feng's medical skills were superb, and her caesarean section left no scars on her.
However, there are still some stretch marks on the abdomen. After 100 days of recovery and maintenance, they have faded a lot. It will take at least half a year to continue to fade.
Even if it's like this now, it's still within the range she can bear.
She originally thought that this was just a hundred-day banquet held for her and Octavia's baby, but she didn't expect that Feng Xiaoyu gave her an even bigger surprise.
At the hundred-day banquet, with the relegated relatives and in-laws of the Ming family and the relegated relatives and in-laws of the Xu family present, Feng Xiaoyu asked Ming Liang to read her will on her behalf on the spot.
"I, Feng Xiaoyu, now 82 years old, took advantage of the 100-day banquet held by my great-grandson and great-granddaughter to read out my will to everyone. A hundred years from now, the following properties will be inherited by my grandson-in-law Xu Zhiyi:
1. The property rights and accessories of Xiaohonglou:
2. The list of all jewelry is as follows..."
Xu Zhiyi was stunned for a moment.
She never expected that Xiaohonglou would be Feng Xiaoyu's personal property, and she would give Xiaohonglou to her just like that.
There was a huge uproar as soon as the will was read out, and it took a long time for the voices in the banquet hall to calm down.
After the 100-day banquet, Feng Xiaoyu was in particularly good spirits, with a kind smile on his face.
Her appetite is also particularly good at night.
At the end of March, it was warm but still cool. At night, the temperature dropped, but she didn't want to go into the house. She lay on the deck chair in the yard and looked at the sky.
Zhou Lan felt uncomfortable because of the incident in Xiaohonglou. Seeing Feng Xiaoyu alone in the courtyard, she walked over and sat next to him, wanting to talk to Feng Xiaoyu.
Feng Xiaoyu turned his head, glanced at her, and smiled calmly:
"Daughter-in-law, I know what you want to say. Xiaohonglou, I gave it to Zhiyi. She has brought me too much satisfaction and joy in my old age. I am happy to give it to her. Don't argue with her.
Also, I know that you want your nephew Zhou Zijun to take over the position of president of Zhou Fengzhou Real Estate. I tell you clearly that it is not suitable. For this position, I want Zhiyi’s brother Xiao An to take over. You can probably tell that, I He is being groomed.
You should take more care of him in the future, treat him well, and help him. "
Hearing this, Zhou Lan lost her temper and stood up angrily, "Mom, Xiaohonglou, you announced on the spot that Zhiyi will succeed you, so I won't argue, but why should the president of a nearby company let Xu Zhian succeed?
Can he compare with Zijun?
Xu Zhian has a high vocational education, and Zi Jun is a master's student who graduated from a 985 college. He has always been managing the company with his father. From the perspective of conducive to the development of the company, he is the most suitable candidate.
Just because you like Zhiyi, you can't lose your mind.
No, I don’t agree, I firmly disagree! "
After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and left.
Feng Xiaoyu sighed and looked at the sky again.
The city lights were too bright, and the weather was so good that there were no stars. It reminded her of the starry sky at night in Micheng when she was a child.
It's so beautiful.
