The first time in history

"Well, this is a good idea. The child's upbringing cannot be careless. We need to find an experienced and well-behaved nanny. Madam, do you have a suitable candidate?" Qian Mingduo asked.

"I have asked someone to inquire about it. I heard that there is a Nanny Zhang in the west of the city. She is very famous in this field and has taken care of many children from wealthy families. Once we find out clearly, we will invite her here." Lu Shishi replied.

"That's good. Madam, I always trust you to do things. With you in this mansion, it's like having a stabilizing force." Qian Mingduo praised.

Lu Shishi smiled slightly: "Master, you are too kind. Oh, there is one more thing. This house hasn't been lively for a long time. When the two new mothers recover, can we hold a small banquet to celebrate the birth of the children and liven up the atmosphere in the house. Let the servants also share in the joy."

"This is a good idea. However, don't be too extravagant, just keep it simple and lively. You can invite relatives and friends and everyone can get together." Qian Mingduo agreed.

"I understand. We'll set up a banquet in the garden and make it festive. And let the opera troupe perform a few good plays. Everyone will be very happy." Lu Shishi's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

The two chatted for a long time, ranging from the maintenance of flowers and plants in the mansion to the adjustment of monthly wages for servants, from the children's enlightenment education to the handling of interpersonal relationships in the mansion.

Lu Shishi told Qian Mingduo her ideas and arrangements in detail, and Qian Mingduo listened carefully and offered his own opinions and suggestions from time to time.

Before we knew it, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the inner hall, dyeing the entire room golden.

"Master, look at the time, it's almost time for dinner. Are you going to have dinner at home today, or do you have other social engagements?" Lu Shishi asked.

"I'll stay at home with you, my lady, today." Qian Mingduo said with a smile.

"Then I will go and tell the kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes." Lu Shishi stood up and prepared to leave.

Qian Mingduo also stood up, held Lu Shishi's hand again and said, "Madam, you have worked so hard. The Qian family can be so peaceful today, thanks to you."

Lu Shishi looked at Qian Mingduo, her eyes full of tenderness: "Master, this is what I should do. We are a family, and for this family, everything is worth it."

Qian Mingduo held Lu Shishi in his arms, stroking her back. He said softly, "Shishi, I want to live in your yard during the time I'm in the mansion."

"Okay!" Lu Shishi's face suddenly turned red, "I wish the master could stay here with me every day!"

"Wait until you give me a son or a daughter in the future. Then I think Madam Yi and Xiaocui will take care of you just as attentively as you take care of them now."

"We three sisters have a very good relationship. We are not jealous of each other like other ladies in other families." Lu Shishi looked up at Qian Mingduo. "We all know that the master belongs to all of us, not just one person."

"You can think this way. I think Qian Mingduo is happy enough." He sighed.

"Master, please have some tea first. I'll go to the kitchen to make some arrangements." Lu Shishi walked to the door and turned back to say, "Do you want to drink some wine today? I'll accompany you!"

Seeing Qian Mingduo nodded, Lu Shishi turned around and left to arrange dinner. Qian Mingduo looked at her back, his heart full of warmth and gratitude. In this complicated life in the mansion, he felt extremely lucky to have a good wife like Lu Shishi.
