Chapter 140 So Obsessed
After all, her Hongyi is only so small, how much can she drink, she doesn't need four wet nurses.
Besides, she was going to feed herself.
So, she pulled her lips, and said to Madam Liu beside her, "You don't need so much."
As soon as the voice fell, the four nannies looked worried, like people who failed the interview.
"Fu Jin, elder brother is the eldest son of the mansion. The more these nannies can store, the better. The fourth master said that he would rather waste as much food as elder brother's food." Nanny Liu smiled .
He said again: "Besides, the old slave has also checked that they are well-nourished, and after drying them in a cool place, there will be no trace of scum."
"I know, but I can feed myself, so I can keep two at most," Ruoyin said.
Hearing this, the nanny in the room was shocked.
Even Grandma Liu said in amazement: "My dear Fujin, you must not do it, you have a noble status, how can you bear this kind of crime, this thing of feeding the children is done by servants!"
"But my elder brother was born prematurely. Although the future is uncertain, in order to prevent him from becoming weak, he still has to drink from me." Ruoyin insisted.
"Then this... needs to be approved by the fourth master. It's not easy for this old slave to make decisions." Mammy Liu said embarrassingly.
Ruoyin raised her eyebrows, but she didn't make it difficult for Nanny Liu.
She knew that the people in the mansion, whether they were in the backyard or the servants up and down, were all afraid of him.
"Then you go to the front yard and say that I have something to do with the fourth master, please come over." Ruoyin said, seeing the sad faces of the nannies, he said: "You go down first, no matter what, the silver will not less of you."
Hearing this, the faces of the nannies were relieved.
After Nanny Liu took them out, she went to the front yard to invite fourth master.
Ruoyin knew that the nanny here was not just a simple matter of nursing a child.
They were all chosen after giving birth.
Women from poor families have no way to make money.
After being selected, she couldn't take care of her husband and her own children.
Leading to the premature death of the nanny's own child.
Therefore, many nannies have a good relationship with the children of their employers and raise them as their own.
For wealthy families, hiring a wet nurse is a status symbol.
A lady from a wealthy family pays attention to demeanor and ostentation.
If you say that you are breastfeeding your child when showing off your child, you will probably be despised by others.
What's more, those noble ladies are all clothes, hands and mouths, how can they bear to feed their children day and night.
In this case, there is no time to compete for favor, and it will also lead to out of shape, which is not worth the loss.
For royal nobles like Ruoyin, the reason was even more cruel.
Among the princes and grandchildren, some are eldest sons and some are legitimate sons.
Some lucky ones are the eldest sons.
But there are also some people with bad fate, who enjoy the highest inheritance right, but die early.
He gave the other princes a chance.
In layman's terms, you never know which prince will be the future emperor.
As long as they have the ability and reach the appropriate age, every prince has a chance.
According to the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty, after the birth of a prince, regardless of his concubines, once the prince is born, the birth mother has completed her mission.
Their world is won immediately, and many princes exercise their bodies early.
Letting the prince and his biological mother separate is to exercise their masculinity.
Don't be indecisive and weak like a woman.
The most important thing is to prevent the imperial family's relatives from monopolizing power.
After all, throughout the ages, there are many foreign relatives who seek to usurp the throne.
As a result, many emperors took measures.
How can the hard-earned country fall into the hands of outsiders.
Just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to prevent his relatives from monopolizing power, he killed Liu Fuling's biological mother, Mrs. Gouyi.
It became a sensational incident of killing a mother and setting up a child.
However, as the incident progressed, the matter of killing the mother and setting up the son gradually changed.
By the time of the Qing Dynasty, there was already a perfect plan for raising a prince.
After the prince gave birth to the full moon, he would leave his biological mother and be raised by the nanny.
Only those who are on holidays can see each other.
Although this uniform is better than killing the mother and setting up the son.
But still a little cruel.
In the feudal ruling system, there are many measures on the issue of heirs and the issue of the country.
Invisibly led to the situation that the royal family has no family affection and the gap between mother and child is great.
Isn't fourth master the most typical example.
Although he was not raised by a nanny.
Instead, he was raised under the knees of Empress Xiao Yiren, Tong Jia.
But also indifferent to his biological mother Concubine De.
Royal ties are weak.
Love is even rarer and more precious.
It can be said to be a fantasy.
After a stick of incense, Fourth Master came to the main courtyard again in a hurry.
It's because when Grandma Liu came to invite him in the front yard, she looked anxious and embarrassed.
He thought something happened to Ruoyin.
When he saw the woman hugging Hong Yi, he asked, "Fourth Master, can I stop so many wet nurses and feed Hong Yi by myself."
He replied without hesitation: "It's such a small matter, why do you need to feed it yourself, as long as you are healthy."
"But Doctor Feng said that elder brother was born prematurely and his physique is weaker than that of ordinary children. I want to feed him by myself. In this case, it will be good for his growth." Ruoyin said seriously.
She herself has studied medicine, and she has carefully read the medical books left by Dr. Sun.
Xin Zhi From the point of view of Chinese medicine, blood is the most nutritious.
But babies can't absorb blood, they can only absorb it by turning it into milk.
Therefore, milk + liquid is realized from blood and is very nutritious.
Hearing the woman's very serious words, fourth master frowned.
No matter from which aspect, it is for her own good, why doesn't she understand?
He pulled his lips, and said patiently: "No need, after the eldest brother is full moon, he will be raised in the front yard of the master. With the nanny Xie, she will take good care of Hongyi. When Hongyi grows up As he grows older, the master will naturally pick some clever servant girls and eunuchs to be his masters, teaching him how to eat and various etiquettes."
Ruoyin has made up her mind, how can she give up easily.
The children here are not fed for a few months.
Basically, they should be fed until they are over 5 or 6 years old.
Then her own mother, isn't she the same as a decoration?
So, she said relentlessly: "I gave birth to Hongyi with all my might. I don't want him to kiss others, but treat me like a stranger. Besides, his physique is weaker than ordinary children, so I asked him to be taken care of by others." Da, let a group of servant girls and eunuchs teach him how to walk and eat, and I feel uncomfortable in my heart as if being grabbed by someone, and at the same time, I feel very sad."
Immediately, fourth master raised his thick eyebrows.
He didn't understand why she was so obsessed with feeding her child?
