The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to
Chapter 432: The First and the Last
The lady of the mansion and the ladies of each room were all there watching the two children taking a bath.
Gao, the soft-hearted wet nurse, was inevitably nervous. The sight of the Sixth Miss crying made her even more flustered. "Madam, I think the Sixth Miss is hungry..."
Gu Jinchu took the cotton bath towel beside him, wrapped up the naked Nuonuo, and put on clean clothes for her while coaxing her softly.
After taking a bath, Nuonuo put on a dress made of embroidered silk with a cross collar, right lapel and a belt. It looked a bit like the monk's clothes in the temple, which was easy to put on and take off, and also easy to change diapers.
Whether they were children from ordinary families or princes and princesses in the palace, they all wore this simple style of clothing when they were young.
The material for the clothes that Nuonuo was wearing was not only gifted to Concubine Shu by the late emperor, but was also sewn by Concubine Shu herself.
Gao wiped the water off her hands and hurriedly reached out to hold the baby to feed him.
Nuonuo had just nestled in Gu Jinchu's arms, and after changing arms, her little hands were still clinging to her mother's sleeves.
It was obvious that it was very hungry, but it didn't want to leave its mother. Its face was flushed red, and it looked like it was about to cry again, which was very pitiful.
Seeing his daughter sobbing, Gu Jinchu felt so soft-hearted that he said, "Feed her here."
After saying this, he motioned to the wet nurse to turn aside. Although there were only women in the room, they still gave Gao some respect.
Gao quickly agreed and immediately opened her clothes to feed the sixth young lady.
Madam Jiang was supported by Liu and sat down on the Luohan bed. She talked to Gu Jinchu, "If the two little guys start to make a fuss together, it will be too tiring."
"Doctor Wu said that you were physically exhausted during childbirth... If you can't recover in one and a half months, you'll have to sit for two months!"
Gu Jinchu smiled and said, "It will be midsummer in a month. If you let me lie down until then, I won't be able to hold it in."
Fortunately, the temperature is not too hot now.
This is already making people feel unbearable.
Old Madam Jiang looked at her grandson and granddaughter who didn't cry or make a fuss after feeding, and said with a smile: "You have raised these two little ones so well, but you have lost a lot of weight."
Gu Jinchu knew that he was just losing weight and his body was almost healed.
Ever since she was able to get out of bed and walk, she would walk around the house for a while after every meal.
Otherwise, those constant supplements would probably make her gain a lot of weight.
Wu Ye said that she was too thin before, and he liked her now that she was a little rounder.
But when she looked at the extra fat on her body and thought about the clothes that no longer fit her, she felt uncomfortable.
Liu looked at Gu Jinchu and said, "Although the fifth sister-in-law has lost some weight, she looks very healthy. She looks even prettier than before she became a mother!"
Gu Jinchu shook his head: "Second sister-in-law must have seen how miserable I was when I gave birth...I can't even wear the summer clothes I made last year."
Seeing that Nuonuo was full, Gu Jinchu took the child, held her in his arms and coaxed her.
Mrs. Jiang held her granddaughter's hand and said softly, "Our Nuonuo can't stand being wronged at all."
My granddaughter’s little fist is only the size of a walnut and as tender as a piece of tofu.
When Mrs. Jiang touched her, she was afraid that her already rough skin would make her granddaughter feel uncomfortable and unhappy.
The women in the room all laughed, and Li said, "Sixth Miss is the daughter of our Duke Dingguo's Mansion. She will not tolerate any grievances wherever she goes..."
Zhang pushed the food plate in her hand to her and said softly, "Didn't Third Sister-in-law say the other day that she wanted to eat this snowy green bean cake...Looking at our other rooms, none of them are as delicious as Fifth Brother's wife's."
Li's words were interrupted, and her eyes moved from Zhang's face to the mung bean cakes on the plate. She suddenly realized that her mother-in-law would definitely feel uncomfortable after hearing what she had just said.
The Duke had five sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter was born out of wedlock, and the youngest daughter was born of a legitimate wife.
The eldest illegitimate daughter married far away. When the late emperor was still alive, the eldest brother-in-law returned to the Kang family because of a funeral in the family and observed mourning according to the rules.
It was originally planned to return to Shengjing City on New Year's Eve to report to the court, but the previous emperor passed away. To make matters worse, another elder of the Kang family passed away.
This time he left Beijing again due to mourning, and it would be three years before he returned. I don't know what the situation would be like by then.
The legitimate daughter was the Shu Taifei in the palace. Although she enjoyed great glory, she could only see her father a few times a year. To use an extremely disrespectful word, she became a widow in her prime years.
Therefore, the girls who got married out of the Jiang family were somewhat unsatisfactory to the two aunts.
Gu Jinchu saw that Li looked a little uncomfortable, but Madam Jiang didn't show it and said with a smile:
"If Third Sister-in-law likes it, ask Jin to make some and send it to Lanyuan. This snow skin is not difficult to make. Mung beans, red beans, and chestnuts can all be stuffed in it."
"Fortunately, that greedy little Zhu Jie'er didn't come over, otherwise she would have asked for food again when she got back." Liu stood beside the crib, looked at Tuanzi, and stood up and said.
Seeing Liu speak, Wang turned slightly and said to Madam Jiang at the top:
"Shuhui has been married for almost four years, and she is a very kind person. Mother, I plan to let her help manage the household and train her slowly for the time being."
Shuhui, whom Wang mentioned, is the eldest daughter-in-law of the first wife.
After the Crown Prince inherits the title in the future, the eldest son and his wife will be the Crown Prince and Crown Lady of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
After all, when it comes to succession to the title, the eldest son or the legitimate son has always been the heir.
Madam Jiang smiled and nodded when she heard this: "Shuhui is a good child. It is a blessing for her that you, as her mother-in-law, think so carefully about her. You can teach Yurou slowly if she has any questions."
Wang's hands clenched into fists under her sleeves.
Does the mother-in-law really not understand, or is she avoiding the question?
Ever since she asked her second brother's wife to help her with the household management last time, the servants in the Jiang family have gradually split into two factions.
How could she, the Crown Prince's wife, cope with this?
