The first time in history

Lu Shishi thought for a moment, "Like the cradle, the one we're using now is a bit old, and the child always feels unsafe when sleeping in it, so we need to buy a better one, preferably made of top-quality wood, with a soft and comfortable cushion. Also, as for the child's clothes, although we have an embroiderer in our house, the child grows fast, so we have to prepare new ones frequently, and the fabrics must be the softest, so as not to hurt the child's delicate skin."

Qian Mingduo nodded and said, "Madam, you have thought it through. We will do as you say. Just tell us how much silver is needed. By the way, how is the wet nurse? Is the baby's milk sufficient?"

"The wet nurses are carefully selected, and they have plenty of milk. But the living quarters of the wet nurses also need to be improved. They take care of the children day and night, and they cannot do without good rest. They need to be arranged with more comfortable and quiet rooms, closer to the baby room, so that it is easier to take care of them." Mrs. Lu replied.

"Well, you go and arrange this matter. What about other aspects? Are there enough servants in the mansion?" Qian Mingduo asked again.

"There are enough servants at the moment, but the kitchen is a bit busy. In order to help Li Shishi and Xiao Cui recuperate, the meals are carefully prepared. Fresh fish, tender chicken, nourishing herbs, etc. are all necessary every day, so we need a few more clever maids to help.

Lu Shishi paused, "Also, in the laundry room, the children's clothes must be washed separately, and a special maid is needed to be responsible for it, so as not to mix them with other people's clothes in the mansion and get contaminated with bad things." Lu explained in detail.

Qian Mingduo pondered for a moment and said, "These arrangements are very reasonable. Madam, you are so thoughtful about these things, it is really a blessing for the Qian family. As for the expenses of the family, have there been any changes recently?"

Lu Shishi opened the account book, pointed at the account and said, "Master, look. Since the birth of the child, the expenses have increased a lot. In addition to what I just mentioned, there are also various tonics and medicinal materials, all for Li Shishi and Xiao Cui to recover as soon as possible. Things like bird's nest and ginseng are expensive, but we can't save money. In addition, the amount of charcoal used in the mansion has also increased. We have to ensure that the rooms of the children and the two new mothers are warm and comfortable and not exposed to the cold."

"Madam, don't worry too much about money. As long as it's for the peace of the mansion and the health of your family, you should spend it. But you must also be careful not to give your servants the opportunity to embezzle it." Qian Mingduo reminded.

"Don't worry, sir. I've been keeping an eye on it. I arrange trustworthy people to purchase these things, and I check the accounts carefully every time." Lu Shishi said confidently.

"I feel at ease with my madam here. By the way, the safety of the mansion cannot be ignored. The child is our treasure now, and we have to make sure he is safe." Qian Mingduo frowned.

"I have thought of this. I have already told the guards to step up patrols, especially at night. Special protection must be given to the area around the baby room, and there cannot be any slackness. Also, the access control in the mansion must be stricter, and all entries and exits must be recorded." Lu Shishi said.

"Very good, ma'am. Now that you take care of all the affairs in this mansion, I can focus on handling matters outside." Qian Mingduo said with relief.

"Master, it's not easy for you out there. I'm just doing my job and I just hope that our family can always be harmonious and happy. These days, I've been thinking about finding a suitable nanny for the two new mothers to teach them some parenting experience. Although there are many experienced maids in our house, we still have to hire a nanny who specializes in teaching newborn care." Lu Shishi continued.
