Chapter Ninety-Three: Li Jing'an
(No more than 100 recommended...) Today's two more... Ask for recommendations, ask for collections....! )
At the time of the curfew, a carriage drove unscrupulously in the curfew of Chang'an City.
"Nai's... If you dare to touch the brows of labor and management, you will definitely be beaten in a minute. Jin Wuwei, who was patrolling the streets, looked at the carriage in front of him viciously and snorted.
However, just when this Jin Wuwei wanted to ride his horse to catch up and arrest someone.
was suddenly stopped by a Jin Wuwei beside him, and then the Jin Wuwei who was stopping looked at Jin Wuwei who wanted to catch up and said, "You don't want to die, that's the carriage of the Zheng family in Xingyang." ”
"Ahh It's the Zheng family... How do you know? Jin Wuwei, who wanted to chase him, was surprised.
And Jin Wuwei, who stopped him, said lightly: "Because my name is Zheng Tai...!" ”
"Are you the son of the Zheng family?" Jin Wuwei, who wanted to chase him, was surprised.
It's just that Zheng Tai said softly: "I hope I am not...!" ”
In this way, the carriage of the Zheng family continued to move forward until it came to a mansion, the carriage stopped, and a young man walked out of the carriage, the man looked at the high mansion, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he only heard the young man smile and said, "It's all mine." ”
After saying that, the young man walked to the door, and before the man, there was already a strong knock on the door.
Soon after the door, a question was asked: "Who...!" ”
"The third prince is here...!"
As soon as the third prince was heard inside, the door was quickly opened, and after the people inside saw the comer, they immediately bowed down and shouted: "The third prince is fine, why are you here so late?" ”
I saw the third prince grinning: "I'm here to get my own things, and I don't want to wait for a moment...!" ”
Saying that, this Zheng Sangongzi strode into the mansion, and directly entered the inner house.
In ancient aristocratic families, the inner house and the outer house were very clearly divided and very strict. The inner house is mainly for female dependents, and generally men are not allowed to trespass. The women, including the girls, were not allowed to go to the outer house casually, so as not to be seen by the men outside.
This Zheng Sangongzi directly broke into the inner house, which was very unreasonable.
"Third brother... What are you trying to do, this is your second brother's inner house? ”
Just after Zheng Sangongzi was about to enter the inner house, a room was lit up, and the three ladies walked out of the room, and one of the women dressed as a woman pointed at Zheng Sangongzi and questioned.
"It used to be... Not now, second sister-in-law, now this house is already my Zheng Jin's... Just now, the Zheng family's big house announced that all Zheng Tan's things belong to me Zheng Jin, second sister-in-law, do you say I can come to this inner house? ”
"What...?" The woman was surprised: "How can your big house give you everything in Zheng Tan without passing me?" ”
"Why do you want to go through you...?" Zheng Jin laughed and said: "You are surnamed Li, we are surnamed Zheng, second sister-in-law, you always can't figure out the situation, hehe... However, it is not difficult for me to serve you, as long as you are willing to serve me, I will take everything from my second brother.
You can be my concubine, and you will still live here in the future, and continue to be your young grandmother. ”
"Get out... You brute, I'm your second sister-in-law. The woman roared.
Zheng Jin was scolded here, and his face was also fierce, and he shouted: "Li Xin'an, you dare to scold me, don't think that if you have a little talent, you can see no one, and labor and management are willing to accept you as a thing or for the sake of my second brother's face, otherwise, labor and management will let you go immediately." ”
"You... You... You brute, how good your second brother used to be to you, he has only been dead for a few years, and you treat me like this, you are simply a bastard with a human face and a beast's heart. Li Jing'an trembled with anger.
"Haha...!" Zheng Jin suddenly laughed loudly: "him is good to me, he is a sister-in-law, I am a concubine, what am I, he is not good to me, he is taking pity on me, but do I Zheng Jin need mercy?"
Li Jing'an, now everything in Zhengtan is mine, you either accompany me obediently, or get out of my house immediately, there is no third way, you choose for yourself. ”
"You...!" Li Jing'an trembled when he was scolded, but he still had no way to take Zheng Jin.
"Don't say any more, if you want to follow me, immediately strip naked and go to bed and wait for me obediently, I'll come right away... If you don't want to...! Zheng Jin showed a ruthless look.
"You're dreaming...!" Li Jing'an scolded angrily, then turned around and said, "I will go... Leave right away. ”
In this way, Li Jing'an packed her luggage, and was swept out of the house by Zheng Jin without hesitation, in Chang'an, where the curfew, Li Jing'an, a weak woman, just brought some salutes, and had no relatives, she finally thought about it, and could only smile bitterly, and then slowly walked to Pingkangfang.
There is her good sister Liu Yanran there.

"Boom... Boom... Boom..."
In the morning, the drums sounded, and at last the night's curfew ended, and all the doors of the houses were slowly opened, and the first to come out was a group of women, all of whom had a wooden basin in their hands, and hurried to the canal and the well.
This is to take a place early so that you can wash yesterday's dirty clothes.
The water source conditions of Chang'an City can be said to be very abundant, and it is known as "eight rivers around Chang'an". Therefore, when the Sui Dynasty built the predecessor of Chang'an City, "Daxing City", it relied on the eight surrounding water veins to dig three canals: "Longshou Canal", "Qingming Canal" and "Yongan Canal".
After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Yellow Canal and the Cao Canal were dug again, and there were five canals running through the entire Chang'an City. Each main aqueduct then divides into several tributaries. In this way, the entire Chang'an City has become a city with an unprecedented water network. From the gardens of the imperial city to the various market squares, you can see the water canals kicking the fast. This is a strong water supply condition that has not been seen in any type of city in China before.
In addition to the canals, the well water in Chang'an City is also very developed, and there are wells in each lifang. The daily drinking water of Chang'an citizens is mainly based on well water. Moreover, in Chang'an City at that time, wells were also all over the area around the main palace, which not only provided drinking water, but also had a fire emergency function.
The water network of canals, the layout of wells, coupled with the pleasant scenery of the lake, and the capital of the Tang Dynasty with a population of one million, Chang'an, successfully solved the water supply problem and rose from the ground to become the most prosperous metropolis in the ancient Oriental world.
"Yo... Aunt Li, did you get free soap? ”
By a canal, a scream of envy sounded, and a woman proudly showed the soap in her hand and said, "Yes... I went early that day, and I got a piece, and the little shopkeeper said that he was a sincere person. ”
"Oops... I also went, but a step late, I heard the little shopkeeper say, this soap laundry is very dirty, only need to rub it, there is no need to beat it with a stick at all, if it is true, we will not only be more labor-saving in the future, but also reduce the wear and tear of clothes.
You don't know, our skin-boy is naughty, this clothes don't beat, dirty doesn't come down at all, washing is equivalent to not washing, but this hard beating, the clothes can't stand half a month, it's really sad to death. ”
"Okay for today... Aunt Li, you just hurry up and use it, if it's really easy to use, we'll buy all of them, right...? ”
"Yes...!" By the canal, a cheerful response sounded.
