Chapter 446: Confinement(1/2)
Ding Haiyang's family is now in a state of chaos.
It was more than half a month since the child was born, and he was full of energy. When Ding Haiyang opened the door, he was crying at the top of his lungs.
The room was filled with the smell of children's milk, feces and urine, coupled with the airtight smell of fermentation, which made him frown, and he couldn't even breathe smoothly now.
no way.
It was the coldest month of winter when I gave birth, and there was no collective heating in Jiangzhou. In previous winters, their family always turned on the electric heater.
Now the electric heater has been moved to Bai Xiujuan's bedroom. On the thin stand in front, three or four slightly yellowed diapers are hung one after another, and they are hardened by the heat.
"The smell of this house is too unpleasant..."
Ding Haiyang said a little depressed.
…
As soon as he finished speaking, an older lady came out of the kitchen and said with a confident smile:
"What do you men know? This is what you need to do during confinement. You can't just be exposed to wind. You will get sick when you get old."
Now that I’m done, I’d like to ask one more question:
"Isn't there another girl in your family? Isn't this the first time you've given birth to a child? I didn't have any impression of it at first?"
"If I don't come, you won't be able to do well during the confinement period, and you won't know how many diseases you will suffer from when you get old..."
As he said that, he took the empty milk bottle that had been placed on the table for some time, poured some boiling water, shook it up and down, rinsed it, and then it was done.
The movements of his hands were quite nimble, but Ding Haiyang looked at him, why was he so uncomfortable?
…
In the kitchen, the simple cannon that smokes oil fume is turned on and the fan is whirring. The other end is still chopping vegetables, and the air is vaguely filled with the smell of pig's trotters soup...
They did their job really well.
Ding Haiyang had no choice but to sit on the sofa and plan to watch TV.
After all, the house is in a mess, and out of sight, out of mind, you need to quickly divert your attention.
He wanted to see his son, but his son was crying so hard that it was a headache. Bai Xiujuan was coaxing him inside...
He thought about waiting until the child stopped crying before watching.
Looking at the eldest sister working in the kitchen, Ding Haiyang actually doesn't like her very much -
But there was nothing I could do.
He paid a thousand yuan a month. This was the nurse she found directly from the nearby ward when Bai Xiujuan was hospitalized. People thought the hospital was too dirty, and something happened...
Although the salary here is not high, the work is easy, just cooking and helping out...
The eldest sister is also used to it, so she came over after thinking about it for a while.
…
Nowadays, there are massage, lactation, and confinement nuns in hospitals. Although they are not popular, they are still available.
Otherwise, having a nanny who specializes in taking care of children is more or less professional.
But unfortunately, the eldest lady hired to save money is over fifty? Her behavior is completely like that of the older generation.
Not only does it treat mothers? It also applies to children.
At first, Bai Xiujuan felt sorry for her son. She wanted to buy a few packs of diapers.
As a result, the eldest sister refused and kindly brought the diapers that her grandson used when he was a child? You are lucky to be like this...
Her grandson Bai Xiujuan has also seen the photo, she is white and fat.
Just a little too fat.
A kid? Those fat, white arms that look like lotus roots.
Their child? He has a round body like Michelin.
But these days, no one thinks that children are not lucky if they are fat when they are young. If they are fat when they are young, they are not called fat, but when they grow up, they will be fat.
All in all? Confused? Anyway, he just took office.
After all, the eldest sister is used to doing work, and she is doing her best to serve this elderly mother--
The windows cannot be opened and the heating cannot be turned off.
Wash your face, brush your teeth, wash your hair, take a shower?
Don't even think about it.
Don't ask, it's just something passed down from the older generation, there's nothing wrong with it.
Not paying attention for a moment? You will suffer when you are old.
She was particularly enthusiastic and carefully adjusted the child's sleeping position, trying hard to make him sleep with a flat head that has been passed down from generation to generation.
Of course? A salary of one thousand yuan can only cover so much.
Don’t live at home? Come over in the morning and help with cleaning? Wash diapers or something? Make two meals by the way.
Something else...
What kind of bicycle do you want for a thousand yuan? I’m afraid you’re just thinking nonsense.
…
As a result, the consequence of trying to save money is that if Bai Xiujuan doesn't do the remaining work in the house, Ding Haiyang will have to do it.
The couple can never escape.
So much so that Ding Haiyang had only been home for half a month, and he felt as if a chunk of his head was going to be bald - why didn't he think there were so many things going on in this house before?
If the eldest sister hadn't made a fuss and shouted in the toilet that day, Ding Haiyang wouldn't have even known that he was still cleaning the toilet at home!
Simply!
He is a big old man...
However, the old man was no match for the majesty of the nanny, and in the end he had to work in silence.
You can't think about this. When you think about it, Ding Haiyang feels like he has a heart attack.
He sighed while touching the TV remote control with his fingers.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the eldest sister poked her head out of the kitchen again.
"Brother, please help me peel these potatoes."
Ding Haiyang frowned, he couldn't bear the thought of having to do this job——
This is too much!
Yesterday I only let myself choose garlic sprouts, but today I have to peel potatoes. Do I have to cook by myself tomorrow?
He can't do it.
We must not condone nannies like this who are sneaking around and testing the bottom line of their customers step by step!
…
Ding Haiyang then spoke righteously:
"Sister Wang, didn't we agree that you would help with the cooking? Why now, day by day, I have so many things to do? I even have to peel the potatoes myself."
Even when Bai Xiujuan was pregnant, Ding Haiyang had never touched the kitchen.
Why do I still have to work after giving birth to a child?
The eldest sister was not happy either.
I originally thought that the gentle people in this family were okay, but who knew it was so unclear...
…
If you are unhappy in your heart, of course you have to vent it out.
Just listen to the eldest sister knocking in the kitchen at the moment, and she can still speak out in a loud voice——
"Oh, that's incredible. You can use me as a long-term laborer for a thousand yuan a month."
"Brother, it's not me who is cheating... You ask around and ask around. You need one thousand yuan to cook and clean, and you also need to help you take care of your children and wash their diapers. Who else will do it besides me?"
My aunt is used to working as a caregiver, and the prices are clearly marked, so she also knows how to care about her labor force.
She will pay whatever price her employer gives her for her labor.
Bai Xiujuan said anxiously that she would be paid one thousand, so of course she would work for one thousand.
It’s true that she doesn’t cheat, and her daily guidance is quite detailed – it doesn’t take much effort anyway.
But anything else?
That's sorry.
If it weren't for an old lady who was a regular customer at the hospital and asked her to take care of her, she would be wiping feces, peeing, and turning over to serve her every day. It would be too tiring.
