Ruyu came over. "Madam, I have prepared your bathwater for you. It's still best to go and wash. It's so hot today, and with your current condition, you are sweating even without moving." Jinghan now bathed at least three times a day, simply for some relief from the heat.
Mrs. Qian had matched some herbs to mix into the bathwater, which made it feel more comfortable. Additionally, these herbs were good for the skin, to prevent blemishes from remaining on the body after childbirth. While Jinghan was not particularly vain, she still could not tolerate having many flaws on her body.
Fortunately, the hot days were not too many, and there was still plenty of rainfall here. By July, after several bouts of rain, the weather no longer felt so oppressively hot.
