Tears burst out of Mrs. Shizi's eyes instantly. The worry and anxiety of the past few days seemed to be soothed. She nodded with tearful eyes and said in a choked voice: "The child always cries day and night. I'm afraid that he will cry to death." ." This is the eldest son of the Crown Prince.
Jiayin reassured her: "It's okay, let me take a look."
She saw that the child's face was not jaundiced and guessed that the newborn might be insecure or bloated.
The room was heated with silver charcoal, and the baby's swaddling clothes were not very thick. She stepped forward and gently took the baby from the nanny's hand. The baby was so small that she seemed cautious, but her method and appearance of picking up the baby were similar to those of ordinary people. It was different. After taking it over, she let the baby lie on the back of her hand. People in the room felt their hearts rising to their throats when they saw her hugging her like this. How could a newborn baby be so delicate and delicate?
Sha Shi stepped forward and was about to speak. What was strange was that when the child was in the hands of the fourth girl, she patted her back and the crying became quieter. She squatted up and down a few times and the child stopped crying.
Everyone in the room opened their eyes in surprise, and the Crown Princess sat up in shock. The rumor that Miss Ning Si’s medical skills were so miraculous turned out to be true when she saw it today!
Mrs. Sha's mind went back and forth. This Ning Si was really evil. How could a thirteen-year-old girl hold a child so skillfully yet be so strange?
When the wet nurse saw that the child had stopped crying, she wanted to step forward to catch the child. Ning Jiayin returned the child to the wet nurse. The strange thing was that the child started crying again in the wet nurse's arms.
Ning Jiayin gently took it again. This time she didn't let the child lie on her arms. She untied the hem of the child's swaddling clothes, untied the bag that tied the child's legs, and curled up the child's two calves. He got up and hugged the child with the back of his hand. The child gradually stopped crying.
At this moment, everyone in the room was shocked: Did Miss Ning cast a spell?
Mrs. Shizi showed a smile that she had not seen in the past few days. Her son was saved this time and no longer had to cry every night. She was so happy. However, she didn't know what method Miss Ning used and what she meant by holding him like this.
She picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, and asked happily: "Fourth girl, what method did you use? Can the Master teach us?"
Shashi still had a trace of anger in her heart just now. She remembered how Ning Si looked so arrogant when she first met him. She had never been so angry before, let alone a concubine from a poor family. But now she couldn't be angry like this for her legitimate grandson. If you don't swallow it, if something goes wrong with this child, it will be someone else who can take advantage of it.
She calmed down her emotions in her heart and made the smile on her face look more natural: "Fourth girl, it's better to hear it than to see it. I heard a while ago that you have great medical skills. Today, it's really extraordinary when I see you. Fortunately, I invited you here.”
He turned to the maid next to him and ordered: "Hurry and serve tea to the fourth girl."
Mrs. Shizi is dissatisfied in her heart. You didn't invite the person. When I asked you to invite her, your face was more important than your grandson. Now you are talking nice words here.
But she knew her mother-in-law's temper and she didn't say anything after all.
Ning Jiayin still looked calmly towards Mrs. Sha: "Mrs. Sha, you don't have to be polite."
This alienated and yet polite look made Mrs. Sha completely exasperated. Such a temperament of repaying every flaw is really rare among our young ladies. She must at least pretend to be dignified and generous on every face. But this Ning Si didn't even bother to put it on.
Ning Jiayin was holding the child in her arms. To be honest, it was a bit difficult for a thirteen-year-old girl to hold the child. After all, her arms were not that long and not that strong. So she handed the child to the woman just now, maybe because Ning Jiayin After holding her for a longer time, the child actually fell asleep. In fact, the child during confinement eats and sleeps, and sleeps and eats.
Looking at the smiling face of the sleeping child, the nanny was so moved that she almost cried. She and the other nanny had been taking turns holding the little master in their arms for the past few days, and they almost couldn't hold on anymore.
"Newborn children are very delicate. When you hold them, you cannot shake them back and forth with your arms. Doing so will damage their brains over time," Ning Jiayin told the woman.
Mrs. Shizi immediately asked worriedly: "This child has been crying for a few days, and the wet nurse has been holding him and shaking him for a few days. Is it possible that his brain has been damaged?"
Ning Jiayin understood that as a mother, she would not be willing to do anything even if there was a slight accident or mistake, so she carefully checked the child's condition and comforted her: "The child is fine at the moment. If something goes wrong, he will He will fall asleep."
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Shizi felt relieved.
Mrs. Sha warmly invited Ning Jiayin to sit down. Mrs. Shizi also said, "Four girls, please sit down and have a cup of tea."
Ning Jiayin sat down, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The nanny asked, "Girl, why does the baby stop crying when you hug it?"
Ning Jiayin explained patiently: "This is because there are many reasons for newborns to cry, but most of them are because they are hungry. But if they cry after eating too much, it is because they are bloated. If you hold him as usual, he will not cry." Faqi’s stomach felt uncomfortable, so he cried, but I let him lie on my arm. This action would help him expel the gas, and his stomach felt comfortable, so he stopped crying.”
The nanny listened very carefully, nodding and sighing in her heart: This girl Ning explained in such detail that she didn't treat them as servants at all.
Ning Jiayin stood up as she spoke. She slowly took the child from the nanny's arms again, and demonstrated while saying: "You see, if I pick up the child like this, his trachea will be blocked and uncomfortable, so we are picking up the child." Sometimes let her neck stretch a little, support her spine and lumbar vertebrae with both hands to protect her spine and lumbar vertebrae from being damaged, let her two calves squeeze her belly, and the adult's hands support her little feet and butt. This posture can both Letting the baby pass gas also makes him feel that he is in the mother's belly. When he feels safe, he will stop crying. This is called a group hug. Another position of the group hug is to turn the baby over and let him lie on our elbows. , the head should be high and the feet should be low, so that the hug will have an immediate effect and he will stop crying immediately."
The nanny's head was nodding like a chicken pecking at rice. They had just seen it. It was amazing.
The maid and mother-in-law next to her also listened attentively. Whoever's family doesn't have children yet, or whoever has children, will always need it.
Ning Jiayin put the baby on the bed next to Mrs. Shizi and continued to explain: "When picking up the baby on the bed, we should hold the baby's head, neck and shoulders with one hand, and hold the baby's butt with the other hand. Don't move the hand holding the butt. , and then place it directly clockwise at an elbow joint on the outside. One of the baby's hands is under our armpit. Our forearm is stretched a little and grabs one of the baby's buttocks, so that the baby's hand and the whole body are touching. Follow us, if the baby is still fussy, you can pat his shoulder to comfort her. You can squat up and down like this or rock him, but the adult's body should be rocked to drive him, rather than putting his head on his arms and rocking him. "
