Chapter Seventy-Two: The Bathroom
Zhou Hongwen saluted Yun Yao: "My brother and sister are talented, which is admirable." ”
Yun Yao hurriedly dodged sideways: "Where is my brother-in-law, it's just some small paths, they are all played in the boudoir, if my brother-in-law praises again, I don't know where to put my face." ”
Qi Jing took Zhou Hongwen's hand and let him sit down, and sat with him on the side.
The ladies and daughters of the Qi family all sat down at the other table, Yun Yao got up and helped the treasure jewel bottle to bring up the drinking food, and Qi Baobox went to the kiln to bring two jars of good wine, and everyone was full of wine and toasted together.
Qi Gu took the girl and daughter-in-law back to the house to talk after dinner, leaving Qi Laoniu, Qi Jing and Zhou Hongwen still chatting while drinking.
After entering the house, Qi Gu grabbed Qi Jinzhi and looked up and down, and saw that she looked very good, and she didn't seem to have suffered any grievances, so she was relieved.
Qi Yinzhu smiled and joked to Qi Jinzhi: "How is my brother-in-law treating you?" I see, the eldest sister is getting married, her face is much better than before, and she will definitely have a good life in the future. ”
Qi Jinzhi stretched out his hand and slapped Qi Yinzhu's palm: "What nonsense." ”
Qi Gu saw that Qi Jinzhi was shy, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "You are not tired after a busy morning, hurry back to the house and rest, I will talk to your eldest sister An Sheng." ”
Yun Yao thought that Qi Gu and Jin Zhi were afraid that they had something private to say, so they hurriedly grabbed the treasure box and pulled the treasure bell and walked out, and the silver bamboo and copper locks were also very eye-catching.
As soon as everyone left, Qi Gu asked Jin Zhi in a low voice: "How are you doing at your mother-in-law's house?" Is your son-in-law good to you? Their family didn't dislike you for being ugly? ”
A series of questions made Qi Jinzhi not know how to answer, and after thinking for a while, he smiled: "Okay, it's all good, your son-in-law is good to me, and he doesn't dislike me for being bad." He said that since I don't dislike him for being poor, he can't dislike me, and said that the two of them can't just look at their appearance, the most important thing is to see if they have the same temper, and he saw that I was a literate person, and he couldn't treat me well. ”
Qi Gu sighed with a sigh of relief and scolded with a smile: "It's still your father's old thing who was prescient, and I was shocked when I gave birth to you." The heart said that the girl's family looks like this, how can you say about the in-laws. Your father said at the time, if we don't grow up, we will be well-educated, and let them read and write. If you teach some good skills, you will always be better than the world in terms of temperament and ability, and you can block other people's mouths, and you can marry with these skills. ”
Speaking of which. Qi Gu sighed: "I said at the beginning that the girl's family was reading so many books, but now it seems that ah." Your father thinks right, in the future, whether it is a girl or a boy in our family, we have to study hard. ”
Qi Jinzhi also pursed his lips and smiled, and Qi Gu instructed her again: "The son-in-law is good to you." You should also be careful, honor your in-laws and treat your sister-in-law well in the future, and do your part. Don't let people scold our Qi family for not being educated. ”
"I'm provincial." Qi Jinzhi smiled happily: "As long as he is good to me, I will be good to his family." ”
The two of them were talking. I heard Yun Yao shouting outside: "Mother, you go to the front hall and take a look, my father is pulling my brother-in-law to drink, and my husband can't persuade me." ”
Qi Gu stood up when he heard this: "What is this going on, old thing?" ”
As she spoke, she walked out of the house in a few steps, hurriedly went to the hall, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw that Qi Laoniu was a little drunk, her face was swollen and red, and she grabbed Zhou Hongwen's hand tightly.
Qi Gu's face was ugly, he strode over, and patted Qi Laoniu on the shoulder: "Dead old man, if you drink too much yellow soup, you should go to bed and take care of the corpse, what is the competition with your son-in-law here, I didn't let the juniors see the joke." ”
She looked at Qi Jing again: "Why don't you send your father to the house quickly." ”
Helping Qi Jing carry Qi Laoniu on his shoulder, Qi Gu smiled at Zhou Hongwen: "Your father is happy, you don't know that in previous years, every day on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he was greedy when he saw other people's girls and sons-in-law coming to the door, and now he also has a son-in-law, and he doesn't know how to be happy." ”
Zhou Hongwen also hurriedly smiled: "I know my father is happy." ”
"That's good, that's good." Qi Gu was also worried that Zhou Hongwen was angry, thinking that Qi Laoniu had no identity, and explained with a smile: "This dead old man doesn't drink easily, the amount of alcohol is not good, and he gets drunk every time." ”
"Daddy should drink less in the future." Zhou Hongwen was a little worried: "In the end, it's not good to drink too much, so my mother will persuade me more in the future." ”
Qi Gu smiled dryly and replied twice, he didn't know what to say, and it was embarrassing to stand there with his hands in his hands.
Fortunately, at this time, Qi Jing sent Qi Laoniu back to the house and came over to accompany Zhou Hongwen, which solved Qi Gu's dilemma.
After Qi Gu's left, Qi Jing and Zhou Hongwen sat and chatted for a while, seeing that it was not early, Zhou Hongwen said that he wanted to go home early, and Qi Jinzhi reluctantly said goodbye to Qi Gu.
When Qi Jinzhi returned to the door before, he hired an ox cart, at this time the person left early, Zhou Hongwen also wanted to hire another car to go home, but Qi Gu's was stopped by Qi Gu's family, Qi Gu's distressed daughter was afraid that she would not be rich in the future, so she wanted to help Qi Jinzhi save money, and asked Qi Jing to set up the family's ox cart, and loaded half a cart to return the gift, Qi Jing drove Zhou Hongwen and Jin Zhi back to Zhou's house.
Qi Jing did things neatly, and after a while, he put the car on the set, loaded the car, and waited for the two of them to get into the car, and went on the road with a wave of the whip.
After sending Jin Zhi and his family away, Qi Gu's family could be considered relaxed, and she went to the house to rest by herself, and asked Yinzhu to take a few sisters to clean up the house and wash the dishes.
Yun Yao wanted to help, but Yinzhu didn't worry about her, so he took her back to the house to rest.
Yun Yao returned to the house and was a little lonely, so she simply took out a needle and thread to do the work.
Now that it is getting hot day by day, most of the time she wears single clothes, Yun Yao thinks about the hot weather in summer and the frequent change of clothes, so she thinks about making more clothes for Qi Jing.
She found a fine muslin cloth to make a middle coat, and turned out some soft cocoon silk to make a robe for Qi Jing.
This middle coat Yun Yao cut is very different from what ordinary people wear, the top has no sleeves, just like a shoulder, and the pants under are made of several strips, there are long pants and shorts.
The trousers were meant to be worn when Qi Jing went out, and the shorts were worn when he was at home to rest in the cold.
By the time Qi Jing sent Jin Zhi back, Yun Yao had already made five or six clothes, looking at Qi Jing, Yun Yao happily dragged him over to try it. Qi Jing put on the sleeveless shirt and shorts, tugged at the clothes, and frowned: "What does this look like, I wear it like a wrestler, it's a joke." ”
Yun Yao burst out laughing: "Who told you to wear it when you go out, this is to wear at home, you don't have to meet guests and don't have to go out, you just put it at home and wear this cool." If you want to go out, you just have to change your body. And say something like that, wrestling? Which wrestler is as handsome as you. ”
Qi Jing, who was blocked by these words, couldn't speak for a while, and after a long time, he said, "That's done." So be it. ”
Yun Yao smiled while packing up her clothes: "What else can you do if you don't do this, you dare not wear my clothes?" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." Qi Jing hurriedly waved his hand, approached Yun Yao and kissed her lightly on the forehead: "It's hot." You've also been busy all day and I'm afraid you're not feeling well, so I'll go fetch some water. You take a good bath. ”
"Done." Yun Yao agreed: "You are dirt and ash on your body, you should also wash it well." ”
Speaking of this, Yun Yao frowned: "It's hot every day in the summer, and I will definitely have to take a bath every day in the future." If we carry water and boil water for bathing every time, it will be more laborious, and we have so many families. How much water to boil per day. ”
Qi Jing was a little helpless: "What else can I do, who didn't come here like this." It's also our family to pay attention to some, regardless of the winter and summer bathing is diligent, you don't look at many people in the village, the family makes a bucket of water to bathe, after bathing, the water is like mud porridge, in winter, in order to save some firewood, you can not take a bath in winter, as soon as the sun comes out, many people are sitting under the wall to catch lice. ”
Yun Yao felt disgusted when she thought about that picture, and quickly waved her hand: "Don't say it, it doesn't make me feel crooked." ”
She went out of the house with Qi Jing, Qi Jing carried water, and she walked around the house a few times, and after the turn, Yun Yao had an idea.
When Qi Jing prepared the water for Yun Yao to take a bath, he looked at Yun Yao sitting at the table and drawing something, he looked over twice and didn't understand: "What is this?" ”
Yun Yao raised her head: "Take a bath, it's much more convenient to take a bath after you do this." ”
While speaking, Yun Yao dragged Qi Jing out of the house and pointed to a vacant lot in the backyard: "Build a small house here, build it with a flat roof, and I'll give you ideas when you build it, and install a thing to dry on it, which is also made of leather and iron, and then prepare two pipes, one for the upper water pipe and one for the sewer pipe......"
Yun Yao told Qi Jing one by one, Qi Jing understood after a while, and clapped his hands with a smile: "This method is good, it will be really convenient to take a bath in the future." ”
It's just that Yun Yao was a little stunned after speaking, and patted her head after a while: "I forgot something, this is going to be put aside at noon, when the sun is strong, I'm afraid the water is hot, if there is no cold water, I can't take a bath at all, I have to think again." ”
As soon as she said it, she wanted to go back to the house to continue designing the drawings, but she didn't succeed, and was pulled by Qi Jing: "Take a bath first, and let's think about it together after taking a bath." ”
Yun Yao thought that it would not be bad for the past two days, so she responded with a smile.
After the two of them took a shower and changed into clean clothes, Yun Yao and Qi Jing discussed for a while and came up with a solution.
Early the next morning, Qi Jing began to prepare bricks to build a hut, because it was only one room, and there were many Qi families, it didn't take much effort to dig the foundation, and deliberately left a sewer in the ground, and the upper house was built faster, and when it was dark, the house was almost capped.
The next day, the big beam was put on this hut, and Yun Yao made something similar to something called cement in the Middle Ages to seal it, and the roof was painted with waterproof paint, but in two or three days, this small house was already finished.
At Yun Yao's request, Qi Laoniu made a whole piece of cowhide, and the copper lock helped to nitrate, Yun Yao strengthened the outside of the cowhide to prevent water leakage, and painted it with black paint, which was conducive to more heat absorption.
As for how to use cool water, there is no other way but to use the oldest method of water pressure.
A tall wooden barrel was erected in the house, and a pipe stretched out from the barrel to connect with the hot water pipe side by side, Yun Yao used her mental power to make a screw buckle fixation, and spent half a day to make a faucet to control hot and cold water, and the rest was easy to get, nothing more than to install these things in one place.
The Qi family followed Yun Yao to work hard for four or five days to get this thing that was said to be a bath, and finally, Yun Yao stepped on the Dengzi to install the shower head, and under the stunned and unknown gaze of the Qi family, Yun Yao clapped his hands: "It will be much more convenient for us to take a bath in the future." ”
"Oh!" Qi Gu nodded stupidly: "How to use this?" ”
She shouted wildly, this object looks so complicated, so tall, why is the daughter-in-law so powerful and capable? It doesn't matter if it's good, what can I do if I can't look down on my son in the future? No, you have to urge your son to study hard and take the test for fame, otherwise it will be too late for such a good daughter-in-law to cry.
Yinzhu and Qi Gu's thoughts were similar, and they also made up a lot of brains for a while.
The youngest Qi Bao Box looked at Yun Yao with starry eyes: "Sister-in-law, how do you use this?" Tell me about it, I'll take a shower with this tonight. (To be continued.) )>
