Chapter 285: Count Your Acquaintances

Even if Li Shu didn't say it, the first thing Zhu Ping'an did when he came back was to take a bath.

But I don't know why, when I see the barrel, I always think of Sima Guang, even though he smashed the cylinder.

In ancient times, baths were bathed in wooden barrels, and in ancient times, bath barrels were made of wooden barrels, which were made of dry wood at first, and then soaked in water after completion, so that the wood would not leak when it expanded. The more you use the barrel, the less likely it is to leak. The production process of wooden barrels is quite complicated, in ancient times, there was a profession called hoop cooper who specialized in making barrels, a wooden barrel from the selection of materials to the finished product to go through dozens of steps, quite durable, and will brush a kind of oil to maintain.

The water in the wooden barrel was steaming, and Zhu Ping'an went in to take a hot bath while it was hot.

However, when Zhu Ping'an washed for a while and was about to take the towel, he touched a pair of small hands, which startled Zhu Ping'an's whole person, and he turned his head suddenly to see the little girl with a red face and a bun that wanted to lower her head to her neck.

"Auntie, little, miss, she asked me to come in and rub your back."

The little girl with the bun had a trembling voice, and her hands trembled as she held the towel and rubbed it on Zhu Ping'an's back tremblingly.

"Don't, I'll come by myself, you can go out first."

Zhu Ping'an took the towel from the little girl with the bun, and then waved his hand speechlessly to signal the little girl with the bun to go out.

In costume dramas, there are indispensable pictures of beauties or noble sons bathing and changing clothes, and the masters are all under the service of the maid into a large wooden barrel, bathing in a hot soup full of petals, because in ancient times it was not the shower at home now, it was very convenient, and it was cold to heat the water at that time, and it was not convenient to sit in the bucket to take things, and finally rinse and wipe it has to be served. If it's a bath like a master, the interest comes, and there may be few inappropriate shots.

Although Zhu Ping'an is also a little yearning, but now he has no such bad taste, and he is only how old he is now. The body does not allow it yet.

In addition, he and the black-bellied girl Li Shu are just acting on the spot now, and the marriage in the future is countless. In ancient times, they all paid attention to marrying maids, and this bun maid was Li Shu's marrying maid. Why bother with it.

Li Shu, a black-bellied girl, sent her dowry maid over, but she didn't know what her idea was!

Therefore, Zhu Ping'an sent the little girl with buns out.

"But, Miss Uncle, Miss Miss." The little girl with the bun behind the tub blushed. Hold the corners of your clothes and make an ostrich shape.

"It's okay, let's get out." Zhu Ping'an waved his hand again.

Because of Zhu Ping'an's insistence, the little girl with a red face and an ostrich-like bun was like being pardoned, and retreated to the door with her head bowed with a red face, and almost hit the pillar.

Seeing the little girl with the bun go out, Zhu Ping'an exhaled. Really, there are too many temptations in this evil old society.

"One, two, three, four, five, six"

Li Shu looked at the door of the inner room expressionlessly, counted silently, and when she counted to ten, she saw the little girl with a red face and walked out of the bedroom with her head down.

I saw the little girl with the bun that came out. Li Shu had a satisfied look on her face, and muttered in a low voice, You know each other.

"Miss, my aunt won't let me wipe my back." The little girl blushed shyly, and she stammered because of the nervousness of the scene just now.

"Oh, just forget it." Li Shu said lightly.

After the episode of the little girl with buns, Zhu Ping'an hurriedly took a shower, dried his body, and came out with his clothes on. 、

"Ah, why are you wearing this rag again?" Li Shu looked at the clothes Zhu Ping'an was wearing. The old man with a small mouth pouting.

"My mother did it herself, and she stayed up all night to make it. In my mind, this is the best clothes. Zhu Ping'an glanced at Li Shu and said lightly.

"But. Do you know where we're going? Li Shu stomped her foot angrily, "There are some eyelids in the old mansion, facing the high and stepping low." ”

"So what, I'm a cloth kid." Zhu Ping'an hooked the corners of his lips slightly.

"Hello, I admit that I didn't speak right just now, and I shouldn't dislike the clothes made by my aunt." Li Shu glared at Zhu Ping'an hard. Then the boss was reluctant and apologized to Zhu Ping'an in a low voice.

belch

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ping'an really didn't expect Li Shu to apologize to such an arrogant and stinky girl. The probability of Li Shu's apology feels lower than that of the sun coming out of the west, it is simply an impossible event, but now this girl has apologized, although she has no sense of apology in her attitude and expression, but she really apologizes.

So much so that Zhu Ping'an was a little stunned when he heard this.

"Uncle, I'll help you change your clothes." The little girl with the bun came at the right time, and then ran to Zhu Ping'an's side, and helped Zhu Ping'an change his clothes very diligently.

Because underwear is also worn inside the costume, it will not be embarrassing to change it.

By the time Zhu Ping'an reacted, the little girl with the bun had already diligently helped Zhu Ping'an change his coat again. The robe is fine silk, embroidered with ink bamboo, tied to the waist, covered with an eggplant fox fur jacket, tight inside and loose outside, and the clothes are inexplicably fitted properly, as if they were tailor-made.

The hair was also dried with a towel by the little girl with a bun, re-combed, tied in a bun on the top of the head, and wrapped a net towel around the head to fix the hair.

"Miss, you see, my uncle is more energetic when he puts on his clothes." After the little girl with the bun cleaned up for Zhu Ping'an, she sighed with a sense of accomplishment.

Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an was a little speechless, I put on clothes and felt more energetic? This girl is talking as if I didn't wear clothes before.

Li Shu glanced at Zhu Ping'an, her eyes lit up slightly, but her mouth was flattened and said, "No matter how good the clothes are, they also have an earthy smell." ”

Zhu Ping'an put the clothes made by his mother Chen in his bag and put them away, packed up his other things in the room, and then went downstairs at the urging of Li Shu.

The shopkeeper who was busy downstairs saw Zhu Ping'an's dress, he was not much surprised, he felt that Zhu Ping'an should have been such a wealthy child, when Li Shu came to the inn just now, the shop guy had this idea, and now it has been confirmed, and his attitude towards Zhu Ping'an is even more respectful.

After leaving the inn, I got into the carriage again, and the carriage went all the way to the direction of Xicheng, to the old mansion in Li Shu's mouth.

From the direction of the carriage, Zhu Ping'an deduced that Li Shu's family was really extraordinary.

There is a folk proverb in the capital: "The east city is rich, the west city is expensive, the south city is poor, and the north city is poor", this proverb can be confirmed by the width and narrowness of the alleys in the urban areas of the capital. Because from the width and narrowness of the alley, you can judge the degree of wealth and poverty, power and humility of the household, where there is a palace, an official residence, commonly known as the door of the mansion, the alley shall not be narrower than one zhang (about two meters), is to facilitate the first four and the last four of the eight carry the sedan chair in and out. Most of the alleys in the east and west cities are spacious and straight, and the alleys in the south and north are mostly narrow and curved, the former must be particular because of the entry and exit of the sedan chair, and the latter is sloppy and casual because the citizens walk.

Therefore, Zhu Ping'an will infer this. (To be continued.) )
