Sister Zhang is 50 years old this year. Her daughter just gave birth to a child and is currently in confinement. Sister Zhang took care of her daughter meticulously, fearing that she would be blown by a cold breeze or get wet by a touch of cold water. Unexpectedly, after a few days, my daughter started complaining. It turned out that her daughter was dissatisfied with her sweaty body and wanted to take a shower. When Sister Zhang heard this, she was shocked and tried to persuade her daughter earnestly for several days. The mother and daughter even quarreled over taking a shower and washing their hair. Sister Zhang felt aggrieved, so she came to Grandpa to complain, and also wanted to ask if there was any way to have the best of both worlds.

While Grandpa praised Sister Zhang for her caring attitude, he also told her that living conditions are now different from before and many of the old methods can be modified. When Zhang asked how to work around it, grandpa suggested that she boil water with ginger or mugwort and use it to wash her daughter's hair, feet or give her a bath. Before washing, heat the bathroom with a heater to a warm and comfortable temperature. Close the doors and windows during the washing process. After washing, wrap the head with a towel, put on enough clothes before going out, and wear shoes and socks. After the baby is one month old, this trouble will be avoided.
