Ler and Buji

When a Zhuang woman gives birth to Lejiao (Zhuang language, that is, baby), her housewife should personally find a "wet nurse" to nurse her daughter-in-law. This is to let the postpartum daughter-in-law have a good rest and keep healthy. The "wet nurse" is usually taken by a woman five months after giving birth, without pay. It is a great honor to be a "wet nurse" and have the reputation of "second mother". When children grow up, they should bring gifts to the "wet nurse's house" on holidays. Four or five-year-old children are sick, so parents should look for "Buji" (Zhuang language, that is, second father) as their children's backer to ensure their health. Buji is very professional. After taking office, he often discussed with his parents, sought medical advice, and cooked in many ways to make his children grow up healthily. When children grow up, they will treat Buji like a wet nurse and do their best to be filial.
