Han Changmu couldn't help but look into the baby's eyes, which were so dark and transparent that he felt a tremor in his heart.
Could it be that it was because the child was born with a disability and couldn't suck milk that he probably wouldn't live long enough that the barbarian would throw him alone in the carriage and let him roll around.
Maybe they wanted to torture him to death, maybe they wanted to drag him outside the city and abandon him.
Thinking of this, he turned around suddenly and ordered Jin Yu sternly: "Try that barbarian severely. As long as he is not beaten to death, any punishment can be used."
When the two wet nurses heard this, they shook their bodies, were so frightened that they almost fell to the ground.
Oh my God, they have entered some kind of realm of hell. Why are they beating and killing people at every turn?
It's too scary. Is it too late for them to say no?
When Yao Yao heard about the child's condition, he couldn't help but sigh.
She was not a medical student, so she could not diagnose what kind of disease this child had, but she knew that in this situation, even in the era of her previous life, the chance of survival was not good, let alone this child who lacked medical treatment. There are few medicines and medical technology is extremely backward in ancient times.
Moreover, even if this child is lucky enough to survive, he will probably be a cripple from now on and will be looked down upon and tortured all his life.
Everyone was silent for a while, and the penetrating cry of the baby lingered in the room.
Yao Yao couldn't bear it, so he took a step forward and asked in a low voice: "Sir, can you ask the wet nurse to express the milk and feed it with a spoon?"
Han Changmu thought for a moment and gave instructions to the two wet nurses. They both said yes and followed the guest room next to Liu's Road to clean up.
At this time, Sun Ying had carefully examined the child's whole body. Apart from the redness of the skin, the obvious blood vessels under the skin, and the natural weakness of the limbs, there was nothing wrong with him.
He explained the results of the examination one by one, and his voice paused slightly and was a little low: "But sir, this child looks much smaller than a full-term child. I can't accurately judge whether the child is in the mother's body or not." The baby was still underdeveloped and was still born before full term.”
Yao Yao had watched a lot of medical films in his previous life and had some understanding of premature babies, so he added: "Sun Wuzuo, I heard that the lungs of children less than a month old are not fully grown, and the crying and breathing are difficult." They will all be relatively weak.”
Sun Ying nodded: "That's true. So, this child's cry is so powerful. Except that he is a little smaller, how can he look like he is less than a month old?"
Yao Yao raised an eyebrow: "That's true."
Han Changmu was quiet for a moment, glanced at Yao Yao, and suddenly asked sadly: "A Yao, how do you know this? You..." He didn't say it clearly, but the meaning of his words was clear. Reveal.
Yao Yao knew that Han Changmu did it on purpose, but he was not angry at all. He just curled his lips with the same sinister smile: "Who doesn't know a few words?"
Han Changmu raised his eyebrows and smiled noncommittally. He knew that she had read a lot of informal books.
The door curtain moved, and two wet nurses walked in shyly, holding a white porcelain bowl in their hands.
The child's voice has become hoarse from crying. Although the cry is still very effective, it is not as loud as before.
Han Changmu nodded: "Go and feed him." He paused slightly and said, "If you can save this child, you two will be rewarded heavily."
The two wet nurses responded in unison,
Mrs. Li stepped forward and picked up the swaddle, while Mrs. Chen took a delicate silver spoon and scooped out a small amount, which just covered the bottom of the spoon. She carefully put it to the baby's lips and poured it in along the gap. .
The baby immediately stopped crying and smashed his little mouth. His eyes turned and he looked at the little silver spoon.
Mrs. Chen quickly scooped up another spoonful, this time a little more, and put a full spoonful into the baby's mouth.
The baby was obviously very hungry. He stared at the spoon tightly, drank it in one gulp, and then smashed it in his mouth.
Mrs. Chen was overjoyed and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Master, Master, the little Master has drank milk."
A faint smile appeared on Han Changmu's usually cold face: "Okay, okay, you both will be rewarded."
Yao Yao and Sun Ying looked at each other and saw happy smiles on each other's faces.
As long as you can swallow milk, you can live.
As long as you can survive, there will always be a way out in the future.
The little uneasiness in the hearts of the two wet nurses disappeared without a trace with Han Changmu's words of reward.
Although the child is disabled, looking at the young master's appearance, he seems to value the child very much. As long as the two of them raise the child well, they will not worry about having no money in the future.
Thinking like this, the two wet nurses fed her more carefully, one spoon after another.
Seeing that the small bowl was about to reach the bottom, the baby stopped swallowing and more than half of it flowed out from the corner of his mouth. Mrs. Chen stopped feeding, put the bowl on the table, bowed and said : "Sir, the young master is full."
Until now, Han Changmu breathed a long sigh of relief and asked calmly: "Butler Jin must have told you that working here will earn eight taels per month for each person, including food and accommodation. You must sign for a year first. If you have no objections, the body contract will be signed in a moment."
Of course, the two wet nurses had no objections and quickly agreed with smiles, fearing that Han Changmu would regret it if he was too slow to respond.
You know, you can search all over Chang'an City, but you can't find a wet nurse with such a high monthly salary. If a big family can give you five taels, and a small family can give you three taels, it's considered good.
Han Changmu nodded and told Mrs. Liu: "Pack a room for them to live in. You can sleep with the child at night and let them take care of it during the day."
After deciding the matter, Han Changmu walked out. There was also a barbarian locked up in the cell. I don't know if he vomited or not.
Ms. Li, who was holding the baby in her arms, was wiping the baby's mouth when suddenly her hands shook and she let out a shrill scream.
"Ah, ghost teeth, ghost teeth, there are ghost teeth." She was so frightened that her face turned pale, her hands loosened, and the swaddling clothes fell straight down.
The screams frightened everyone in the room and froze. The swaddling clothes fell in front of Yao Yao's eyes. She rushed over and quickly stretched her hands under the swaddling clothes.
Although the baby was not big, it was still heavy despite the thick swaddling clothes. It hit Yao Yao's arm, and the arm sank downwards. There was a look of pain on her face, but she was still stable. Caught the swaddle.
The baby was obviously startled and started crying again with a cry of "Wow".
Yao Yao glared at Mrs. Li and said fiercely: "What are you doing, do you want to throw this child to death?"
Mrs. Li also knew that she was in trouble. She knelt down with a thud and pointed at the baby fearfully. Her voice was so trembling that she could no longer form a complete sentence: "He, he, he has grown."
Gui Ya, Gui Ya, this child is, is a scourge, cannot be wanted, cannot be wanted. "
Yao Yao frowned: "What ghost teeth?"
"There are no ghost teeth." Sun Ying sneered, stepped forward, opened the baby's mouth, and pointed to the two small white dots on the baby's lower gums: "Did you see it? This is it."
Yao Yao suddenly realized that this was a ghost tooth. It was obviously the birth tooth shown in medical movies, which is the premature eruption of normal deciduous teeth.
She looked at Mrs. Li sarcastically: "This is because the child's deciduous teeth came out too early. What kind of ghost teeth are they? It's just an alarmist."
Mrs. Li refused to believe it, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "No, no, this is Guiya. It's unlucky. My maid, I'm quitting. I want to go home. I want to go home."
Mrs. Chen next to her was obviously very scared. Although she was shaking violently, she still managed to keep her balance and knelt on the ground without losing her legs.
Han Changmu pursed his lips and glanced at Chen: "Ms. Chen, what are your plans?"
Mrs. Chen shook three times, her lips trembling and unable to speak.
She felt that after seeing the secrets of a wealthy family today, even if they wanted to leave, they might not be able to leave.
In this case, it is better to have a good attitude and put yourself in danger to survive.
She tried her best to control her voice so that it wouldn't tremble too much: "My lord, my maid, I am willing to stay and take care of you, my young master."
Han Changmu raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, but nodded expressionlessly: "Okay, then you will stay and take care of this child." He turned to look at Mrs. Liu.
Ms. Liu nodded slightly and left, dragging Ms. Li who kept begging for mercy.
Han Changmu breathed a sigh of relief, walked to Yao Yao, opened the baby's mouth, and saw two tiny deciduous teeth that had just emerged from the lower gum bed. He didn't believe in the "ghost teeth" theory, but this baby had There are many mysteries in the world, or the two prematurely grown deciduous teeth can be an opportunity to clear up the mysteries. Thinking of this, he asked Sun Ying with a serious face: "From what you see, what causes the deciduous teeth to look like this?" Grow it early?"
Sun Ying was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Beizhi has only seen this kind of situation in books, never seen it with his own eyes. This child is the first one Beizhi has seen."
Yao Yao lowered her head, looked at the fed baby, smiled with her mouth open, and her heart softened.
She remembered that it was shown in a medical movie in her previous life. This kind of early eruption of deciduous teeth is rare and the reason is not clear, but it is more or less related to excessive calcium supplementation.
But in the ancient times she lived in, most people tried their best to stay alive, so how could they bother to supplement calcium.
In other words, no one knows what calcium is at all, so how can we say that calcium supplementation is excessive?
"Yao joins the army, Yao joins the army, what do you think of this matter?" Yao Yao was in a trance when she heard Han Changmu's low voice next to her ear. She suddenly came back to her senses and said, "What did you say, sir?"
Han Changmu's eyes flashed, and he smiled meaningfully: "A Yao, what do you think of this situation?"
Yao Yao thought for a moment and considered: "The premature growth of deciduous teeth means that the mother usually eats very well and has excessive nutrition."
Han Changmu smiled meaningfully: "Is it also written in the book?"
Yao Yao smiled nonchalantly: "Yes, yes, it's all written in the book."
