Most people don't wash their clothes at the well.

The location of the water source and the route of drainage all indicate the status of the occupants.

The location where Wang Lanling lives is naturally the best place chosen by the architect, and it is more convenient than others in various things.

The planning of the house is a meticulous and very necessary arrangement, Wang Lanling does not need to understand the benefits in detail, as long as he can enjoy a life that does not make him feel inconvenient, it is enough.

This inconvenience is tolerable, Wang Lanling can adapt to it, and Mei Niang and these people need to adapt more than Wang Lanling.

For Mei Niang, these women do have to adapt to all aspects, they are bought as gifts to Wang Lanling, and the future depends on Wang Lanling's arrangement.

"Girls! The master is here, come out and meet the master! Mei Niang shouted coquettishly to the big room in front of her.

The men and women near the house also saw Wang Lanling and Mei Niang, and they all quickly stood together at this time, waiting for Wang Lanling to pass.

"Come out quickly, the master is here!" The little ones shouted into the house, beckoning people.

In the midst of the hurry, many women ran out of the hut.

In the distance, a few men also came out of the house, and it was not only women here.

Men are mainly responsible for musical instruments, blowing, playing, singing and hard work, and are also responsible for some stages and roles.

Most of the dramas are men, and Zhao Liyang mainly knew that Yun Tiantian was going to send women to Wang Lanling, and in order to show the virtuous and virtuous virtue of his daughter, he sent a garden of children's dramas to Wang Lanling to play.

There are a total of fourteen people in the play, all of whom are women, some old and some young.

The barbarian drama in Shanzhou is nine people, mainly martial arts, and the people there like to watch fierce fights and heroic deeds, and don't like literary dramas that are just talking but not practicing, basically there is authentic fighting time in every scene.

So the brutal drama is mainly played by men, and this one has a relatively high tolerance for fighting and being beaten, but I just like to watch this over there, and no one will watch it if it's not real.

There are twelve people in Longzhou's Liyuan opera, this one is more like a TV series, there are all types, there are a lot of tricks, the main roles are so many people, and more attention is paid to the core starring personnel.

Yunzhou is a hundred operas, the standard is fourteen people, and the main performances are some famous stories and the like.

Basically, what is staged depends on the preferences of the audience, the customs are different in various places, Yunzhou doesn't like to watch barbarian dramas, especially some elderly people basically don't watch it, and they beat it too hard.

Baiju is also not liked by many outsiders, the sensationalism here is too powerful, too fake, and too verbose.

The main audience is still some old women and old mothers, as well as filial sons and daughters-in-law who accompany their mothers to watch the play.

This is also the reason why Wang Lanling is reluctant to watch the play, although it is said that it is to follow the local customs, but some customs themselves are the actual differences between people in different regions.

There are more than 20 different types of dramas across the country, including the Luo sock opera that Wang Lanling thinks is a favorite to see, but cannot watch with his family.

Luo sock opera is the kind of dance performance that wears black silk to show off her beautiful legs and figure.

"Sir!" Men and women, the elderly and children, all respectfully greeted Wang Lanling.

Wang Lanling stood in front of the room, looking at the more than forty people standing in four rows on the left and right, there were more people here than he expected.

"Why are there so many people here, all of them are from the troupe?"

Mei Niang had already put the wooden basin aside, and at this time she preemptively said: "No, there are fourteen of our girls, the rest are newly received, and there are musicians, and the rest are to repair the house and cook." ”

Wang Lanling looked around and said, "Who is in charge here?" ”

Wang Lanling is young, and his face is the kind of person who is easy to talk, so although others will not bully Wang Lanling, others should also think about themselves.

Among the women standing in the first row, several young girls had gloating expressions on their faces, obviously not pleasing to Mei Niang's courtesy.

A woman in her forties and fifties looked at Wang Lanling and said, "Master Hui, my name is Yun Niang, I am taking care of everything here, and the same is true for singing." ”

Wang Lanling looked at Yun Niang and said, "Introduce it to me." ”

"Yes." Yun Niang walked out of the line.

She stood beside Wang Lanling and began to introduce the girls opposite.

"These girls are all selected from the beautiful girls who can sing and perform, and they have no problems in terms of personality, they all know to be obedient and will not play temper."

"Among the fourteen plays, I am the oldest, forty-three years old, the youngest is seven years old, and I have been studying drama for three or four years."

Wang Lanling glanced at the youngest girl, these people were not sold to the troupe by their parents, they were people who committed crimes in the family and grew up in the teaching department with their families since they were children.

These women are not ordinary people, and each of them is an inferior person on record.

The people in the Department of Teaching Workshop, only high-ranking officials and nobles are qualified to play, and it is not a place open to those who are not qualified.

Wang Lanling was able to buy these beautiful women from the state capital, mainly because he had fought against the county guards and was the person who the emperor took care of several times, so he enjoyed some corrupt treatment before he had not enough official titles and did not enter the circle of the state capital's aristocracy.

Wang Lanling quickly shifted his gaze and looked at the other woman.

His face was expressionless, and from these beautiful women, he realized how heavy the power of this era was.

If the struggle fails, this is the fate of the family!

Not to mention adults, even children have to suffer with it, even if it is an infant baby, it will grow up to be someone else's plaything with a heavy crime.

Whether it is the wife of an official to curry favor with the wife of a superior leader, or to grovel to the children of a leader, it is a kind of maintenance and fear of class privilege.

In the past, he felt that the struggle had failed, and that the net had broken to such an extent that it would affect the people below and make the struggle more acute.

But looking at these women at this time, Wang Lanling understood that sometimes it was really necessary to break the net.

If you can't eradicate some stereotypes and bad habits, and you can't protect your family, then the struggle will inevitably intensify!

There is no teacher department in Heishui County, and the poor people here, the landlords who have just eaten enough, and the rich wives who have only learned to use shampoo for a few years, are not qualified to experience that kind of treatment.

What happened to Reah's father is just a normal treatment in this empire.

The main one who exercises this right is naturally the Jiang family.

If you offend an official, then at most you will die violently or you will not be able to do it.

If you offend the Jiang family, then don't think about it well!

The Jiang family may have good people and good people, but this does not affect some things.

Wang Lanling gave Guo Juli face and sent Guo Juli to leave the county government with dignity, not out of kindness, but really wanting to change something!

But this kind of thing has always been normal, and people have followed precedent.

Therefore, Wang Lanling himself has to become that precedent, after fighting others, if he can forgive the other party's wife and children, he will give the other party a stable treatment, which is the so-called benevolence of women.

For himself, as well as for the atmosphere of this era and the future, Wang Lanling set a rule for himself and set a moral bottom line.

Because he thought of himself from these women, Wang Lanling was much less interested in the affairs of the hundred operas.

Yun Niang saw that Wang Lanling's eyes did not have the kind of child-in-law look in these beautiful girls, so she knew that Wang Lanling was a positive person.

Since they arrived in the Zhao Mansion, they have heard a lot about Wang Lanling's deeds.

Young and promising, kind-hearted, prestigious, and affectionate for women, he is an elegant gentleman.

Although Wang Lanling is also very playful sometimes, these praises are not too much for him, and the things he does deserve these praises.

"Master, now the girls are living in the big room at the back with me, and now we have to take care of the laundry and cleaning, the stage and things have not been cleaned up, so there are more people and messy people, and when the things are arranged, it will be quiet here."

Yun Niang, as a corner in these dramas, has been mixed in some small circles in the state capital since she was young, and she is very clear about the current problem.

The stinky men who do the hard work around don't deserve to stand here.

These people are standing here, how can the master have fun?

After Wang Lanling heard this, he said, "What do you need here, I'll ask someone to come over to help later." ”

Yun Niang quickly said: "The girls need some maids to help them work, such as buying rouge gouache, snacks, gadgets, etc., and they all need maids to run errands, so that the girls can concentrate on practicing the play, and the beautiful water is bright and listen to the master's instructions." ”

Wang Lanling found that these fourteen women were out of work again......

What a!

Of the fourteen women sent by Lao Zhao, do you still want to give each of them a maid?

Forget about Zhao Wenrou and Lu Leia, Wang Lanling is indeed obliged to support them and provide them with a comfortable life.

But eating one's own peaches and planting two acres of peach forest, in order to watch a play that may not be seen several times a year, you have to raise fourteen women and their maids and cooks, build a row of houses, and buy gongs, drums, huqins and other musical instruments for 365 days a year?

Oh, and there are luxuries like shampoos, soaps, skincare products, and other luxuries that maintain a beautiful complexion.

Wang Lanling has never had any needs for the women in this garden, but he can't refuse, but he can't excuse himself because of face.

Now he found out that it was not only a matter of fourteen women, nor of fourteen more workers in the family, but of fourteen people who had left their jobs!

Around these fourteen women, he will continue to throw money into them every year in the future!

The value of the existence of the women in this garden is to improve the quality of life of Wang Lanling and decorate a little time.

Wang Lanling knew very well that he was very busy with his time, and it was impossible to use it for a long time to get back to his capital, that would not work at all, he had more and more important things to do.

This...... What to do?

Wang Lanling showed a contemplative look, he really didn't want to raise these fourteen beautiful women.

Let these women do it themselves, have enough food and clothing, and they ...... You're going to scold me......

Don't look at people who are criminals, they are inferior people, but their living treatment is like that of superior people.

When it comes to being a plaything for the superior people, their psychological tolerance is not weak, but also very strong.

But if it is said that marrying inferior people, such as those surrounding country men, or being a village woman who dumps dung and cultivates the land and burns the fire, it is probably the real punishment for them.

"I'll open a vegetable garden here, and bring some cattle and sheep, and you will ...... from now on Let's farm and raise cattle. ”

Is Lord Xiao Wang afraid of offending people?

In the face of practical interests, Xiao Wang is always Xiao Wang!

The girls were struck by thunder, and they had never thought of such a thing, so much so that they thought they had heard it wrong.

Their best expectation is to be favored by Wang Lanling and become Wang Lanling's concubine, although this is a very statusless status and is very bullied at home, but it is better than those maids, and they will have to rely on it in the future.

Even if it's a little bit, at most, it doesn't get Wang Lanling's like, just an ordinary play.

However, this young man actually asked them to farm and raise cattle and sheep?!

What's the difference between this and sending them to the frontier?

In this era, even if it is a prostitute, even if it is the plaything of the powerful, it is countless times better than a peasant!

A woman in the first row looked at Wang Lanling with teary eyes, "Dare to ask the master, where did we make you unhappy?" Why do you do this to us who are miserable? ”

As she spoke, she began to cry, as if Wang Lanling had done something heinous.

Wang Lanling decided that whoever gave a woman to himself in the future would not be able to accept it, unless he brought his own living expenses or could work.

One woman cried, and the second woman was not far from the crying line.

These poor women can always cry easily, and they all look at Wang Lanling sadly, very aggrieved.

"Lord Wang!" A man who was carrying things clasped his fists with both hands and said solemnly: "It is said that you love the people like a son, and when you see it today, it is really a little inconsistent with the rumors!" ”

"Alas......" Wang Lanling sighed, man.

He slowly said to the man who spoke, "I won't ask your name, and I won't embarrass you, but now answer your question." ”

Wang Lanling explained: "They are free. ”

It's time to act out things you don't like again, maybe that's life.

Although I know very well that this is very false, some systems are indeed leading and worthy of the system of a big country.

"I ask you, would you rather be a canary plaything in a cage, or an eagle soaring in the sky outside, a horse galloping across the vast grasslands?"

Everyone knows that in multiple-choice questions, only the prescribed answers are correct.

The man froze, and then said decisively: "Of course it's the eagle horse!" ”

In this era, we can't talk about democracy, but we can talk about freedom.

In fact, the kind of policy of ignoring the people, the kind of capitalist system that provokes the struggle of the lower classes, is really very suitable for the current environment.

The empire's territory was already too large to manage, and with its waning power of control and increasing control costs, it was too much to maintain.

But neither the first emperor nor the current old emperor had that kind of thought.

Wang Lanling didn't have that kind of idea, but when nationalism did not awaken and the lower classes could not unite together, that kind of system did have incomparable superiority.

These knights who knew martial arts were about the same as the cowboys who wielded muskets and horses in the old days.

Wang Lanling said: "That's right, of course, freedom is more valuable, and I just hope that they will master some folk survival skills and have a foothold in the future." ”

Wang Lanling's explanation is not convincing at all, and people in the feudal era did not have too many extravagant hopes for freedom.

The weeping woman raised her head, and said with pear blossoms in the rain: "We are not going anywhere, we just ask the master that you can enjoy the food." ”

"Master, can't we be accommodated here for those of us who are wretched? Then we might as well be dead......"

Wang Lanling felt the gaze of the rest of the people, it was useless for him to say anything today, as long as these women kept crying, it would be Wang Lanling bullying weak women.

Woman, what a nuisance.

Wang Lanling thought of Su Shi, the ancients who had no money if they were not officials, and gave women to others.

Wang Lanling suddenly realized his stupidity, these women are plays, and if they let them farm, it would not be good for their reputation.

If you are stingy with some money, you will have a bad reputation, which is not a good thing for yourself.

For example, the Rona girl in the imperial capital who took the initiative to donate money to herself, her reputation is not only useful among the people, but also plays a role among some women, such as those singers and dancers.

Careless!

Wang Lanling never thought that Lei A could still represent the queen of sinners, and also represent some of the classes that had been reduced to inferior people because of the emperor's relationship.

I'm afraid that Rona and the rest of the girls are willing to give themselves money, not mainly because they do things for the people, but because they are good to Rea.

After these actors in front of them are also sinners, they are afraid that what they think about is the status of a concubine like Leia.

Let these women farm the land, it is notorious, and it will offend some opera and dancers that may be met in the future.

It's really hard to ride a tiger!

Wang Lanling himself is not a witty person, if he had understood this matter earlier, he would not have made such a mistake.

He has always dealt with officials, where would he think about this before!

These women have little to do with Wang Lanling, and Wang Lanling really doesn't need to be careful about this.

But if the reputation of this place is ruined, those women under the princely and powerful may stand opposite them and talk coldly.

He got some good fame for a poem and made a good impression on women.

Accepting women and playing with women is not a bad reputation, even if a person has many women, there is an emperor as a role model, as long as he can afford it, he is capable and capable.

It's nothing bad for women, and it's the age of men after all.

can arrange for the woman sent by others to farm in the past, which must be a bad reputation.

Wang Lanling realized that he was facing an era, and those who were ahead of the times had to face resistance from the times.

At this time, it was difficult to ride a tiger, Wang Lanling quickly said: "My colleagues in the county invited me to watch the play in a few days, you have to be in shape, delicate and dignified, and you have a beauty in your eyes, but I don't know much about you." ”

Mei Niang quickly asked, "Master, how do you want to know about us?" ”

This topic is a bit vulgar, but Wang Lanling's original intention is like this, he just wants to jump out of the previous topic quickly!

"I'll talk about this later, you are all from Yunzhou Mansion, Heishui County is a small place after all, I also want you to understand that this is not a good place, but it is a stable place to live for a long time with food and drink. Those who are willing to stay, I am naturally welcome. ”

When the rest of the girls heard Wang Lanling's words, they were much more relieved.

As long as Wang Lanling is interesting to them, there is hope.

Seeing that Wang Lanling didn't really want them to farm and shepherd sheep, the woman with pear blossoms in the rain who was crying just now looked at Wang Lanling pitifully.

"We have been in that illusory and flashy place for a long time, and we all hope to have a safe home, and when we hear that we are going to come and serve you, our hearts are happy and nervous, but you are slow to come to see us poor people, master."

Lord Xiao Wang nodded, "Let's do this today, I understand what you mean, it's really been idle for a while, come to me tomorrow to perform a dance, let me see." ”

"Yes!" The woman quickly agreed, and at the same time said, "Wan Niang knows." ”

Wang Lanling has already blacklisted all the women in this row, and the so-called summons are just perfunctory.

In addition to these women, the men here also made Wang Lanling feel bored.

"It's not suitable to live here, there are too many people coming in and out every day, so the fourteen of you will go to the guest room for the time being."

These women have more men around them every day, and it is really easy to find things for Wang Lanling, and there is no shortage of licking dogs in any era!

Wanniang and the others were all happy, and they were able to live closer to Wang Lanling, which is a good thing!

"Yes!"

These people themselves are Wang Lanling's people, and how Wang Lanling deals with it is his own business.

As for the person who spoke for the girls just now, Wang Lanling asked him not to use it in the future.

Returning to his bedroom from the temporary room of the troupe, Wang Lanling sat on the sofa and drank wine, very unhappy.

After wanting to do more, Wang Lanling found that he was becoming less and less free, as if he had been kidnapped, and he had to be confined to that box when he did things.

If you have no desires and no desires, then you can deal with those people as you want today.

If they are willing to farm here, they will farm, and if they are not willing to farm, they will leave by themselves, so Wang Lanling does not want to keep raising them.

There are many things in my heart that I can't say to others, I can't say it to Lei A, I can't say it to Zhao Wenrou, and I can't say it to those subordinates.

No one can understand Wang Lanling, as long as he thinks that he is so lonely, Wang Lanling feels that this life is even more boring.

Originally, the amount of alcohol was not good, and it was drinking when he was sulking, and soon Xiao Wang fell on the sofa in his bedroom.

Fortunately, Jin Ji was watching by her side all the time, and after seeing Wang Lanling drunk and falling to sleep, she helped Wang Lanling take off her clothes and carried him to the bed.

After I don't know how long, Wang Lanling felt that someone touched his underneath, so he closed his eyes and shouted, "Do it again for me to do...... This society...... Kidnapped my chicken......"

Zhao Wenrou looked at Wang Lanling strangely, and then looked at Lu Lei'a who was sitting next to him, "What are you talking about, husband?" ”

Lu Leia also couldn't hear the words of the liquor ghost, and said, "It's a dream, let's sleep well today." ”

Zhao gently nodded and agreed.

Rarely, Wang Lanling took a day off.

***

If you don't like it, you won't do it, Wang Lanling didn't go to work the next day, she sat on the sofa with two big beauties in her arms, and watched the beauties dancing lightly two meters away.

Just look at these women, if they want to damage Lord Wang's body, it is wishful thinking!
