Chapter 14: A New Life

When the lantern was in charge, the guards were full of wine and food, and some people took a basin to soak their feet in the courtyard to soothe it, after all, they had been on the road for three or four days in a row, and then they all went back to their rooms and went to bed early.

The house is very large, and there is a shortage of families, because the owner of Yanshan Horse Farm has only given the yard to Luo Yi for a year, Luo Yi has not made time to really take over and send someone to take care of it, so there are still not many people in the house.

The mansion is sparsely lit and very lonely, but for Luo Zhaoyun and Mu He, it is undoubtedly like a pure land!

Mu He instructed the servants to prepare wooden barrels and hot water, and asked people to bring soap for bathing, although this thing has the same name as the soap of later generations, but it is not the same thing, this is a mixture of soap horn and fat beads, and it is made into a paste by coagulation, which is used to wash the body, which belongs to the daily necessities of some wealthy families.

Of course, the royal family and the powerful family will use peas, algae beans, etc., combined with some herbs, mixed to make a liquid, not only has a good decontamination effect, but also has a fragrance, which is a luxury cleaning product.

Ordinary people use goat oil and vegetable oil mixed with some plant ash for washing their hair and cleansing their bodies, and poorer families use rice water or nothing at all.

Luo Zhaoyun's emaciated body, soaked in a large wooden barrel, steaming, the skin of the whole body was soaked in hot water, the warm heat penetrated the heart, making people feel comfortable, and the fatigue of the journey was suddenly swept away, especially without having to worry about life and safety at all times, the spirit was relaxed, the heart was smooth, and I felt a little fluttering.

He hadn't washed so comfortably for several months, and in Luofu, he didn't have a comfortable life, and he even took a bath and bathed very simply, how could he be so comfortable?

At this time, the door sounded, Mu He came in with a wooden basin, through a screen, took off his robe and skirt, only a pair of small shorts and a belly pocket remained, and then took the basin and towel, and came to the periphery of the barrel where Luo Zhaoyun bathed.

"Muhe, I'll just wash it myself."

Mu He shook his head and said with a smile: "Then what's the matter, now that you are a young owner, you need a servant to help you wash it, I don't worry about others, or I will come and help you wash it myself." ”

Luo Zhaoyun was a little embarrassed, after all, there is a difference between men and women, although her body is only ten years old, and she is only thirteen years old, cardamom years, but the place where she should grow is also long, and her physical characteristics are different.

Mu He used to take care of him before, so he didn't feel abnormal, first picked up the soap corner and brushed his hair, don't look at it as only ten years old, but the hair is already very long, and the ancient men's hair is no shorter than that of women, and it is more troublesome to wash and comb.

The girl was careful, and patiently combed for Luo Zhaoyun, and cleaned it several times, before completing the first part, and then, she dipped it in the warm water of the wooden bucket with a cloth towel, twisted it twice, and then rubbed his back and chest, and rubbed off a lot of sweat and mud.

Luo Zhaoyun was very enthusiastic, only enjoying the service of the little girl, there was a sense of guilt in her heart, her age was equivalent to that of a girl in the first year of junior high school, and she was rubbing herself in a bath, and she really couldn't help it.

However, according to some experts who have studied this custom, it is said that in ancient times, the maids of large families had to accompany the male host to bathe.

Sure enough, Luo Zhaoyun was still guessing, Mu He had stepped on the wooden stool, raised his legs and put them into the barrel, and was about to wipe the bottom for him.

"Stop! Now, I'll do it myself. Luo Zhaoyun hurriedly stopped her next move, otherwise her little brother would be exposed.

Mu He was stunned for a moment, looked at his shy appearance, and sneered: "What are you ashamed of, in the past two years, I scrubbed Ah Lang every time I took a bath." ”

"This, now that I've grown up, besides, I'm going to be independent, and I can't rely on others for everything, so how can I grow up to be a man?"

"Yo, Ah Lang is going to be a man, Na Cheng, I'll just wash these for you every time, wait a minute, I'll put on new clothes for you." Mu He jumped out of the barrel with a smile, the water had already moistened her underwear, revealing her slender body, like a budding bud, green but vibrant.

After half a pillar of incense, Luo Zhaoyun finished bathing and changing, and under Mu He's service, he changed into a clean pale cyan narrow-sleeved robe, with black pine lines rusted at the round neck, and his hair combed high behind, tied with a silk knot, and shining in the bronze mirror, he found that his temperament seemed to have changed somewhat, his eyes were shining, his forehead was crystal clear, and his demeanor was calm, not like the stability of a ten-year-old child, and the crazy and stupid appearance of a few days ago, it was even more different.

"It's true that people rely on clothes and horses and saddles!" Luo Zhaoyun smiled faintly, and was not satisfied with this comfortable life, but decided to start using the boxing techniques taught to him by Luo Yi tonight to exercise his body, and get a first glimpse of the door one step earlier.

The room where Luo Zhaoyun lived was very large, with an outer room and an inner pavilion, separated by a wall and a screen in the middle, and a curtain hanging from the door.

There are more than 100 square meters in the outer room alone, the layout is neat, the furnishings are simple and elegant, there are floor-to-ceiling bronze lampposts, animal stoves spitting sandalwood, round tables and stools, a row of exquisite rosewood shelves, there are a lot of porcelain and jade, white porcelain figurines, pan pots, tall plates, blue glazed vases, white glazed lotus pattern jars, etc., so that the room is antique.

These valuable furniture were much more noble than the simple room where Luo Zhaoyun lived in Luo's mansion.

Mu He took off the lampshade veil, lit three candles with a fire fold on the tray of the bronze lamppost, and then covered the lampshade back, and suddenly the lights in the room turned on, and water poured all over the room.

"Wow, it's so beautiful, it's time to catch up with the room of Duke Luo and the eldest lady in Jixian County." Mu He was very happy, and since then he has been free from the clutches of the devil, and he is as happy as a little lark who has just been freed.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at those porcelain vases, and sighed with emotion, they are all genuine products of the Sui Dynasty, and they are priceless in later generations, but they are just homely decorations here.

The economic prosperity of the Sui Dynasty has promoted the development of porcelain, and there has been a "kiln" called the porcelain concentration place, Sui porcelain at this time according to the characteristics of "south green and north white" said, the south is rich in blue glazed porcelain, mainly concentrated in the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the craftsmanship is excellent, the glaze color is light and pleasant, clear as ice, the representative is the kiln.

The north is famous for manufacturing white glazed porcelain, the fetus is hard and hard, the tire and the glaze are white, the glaze layer is thin and uniform, the surface of the vessel is like mutton fat white jade, it is crystal clear and warm, mainly concentrated in Guanlong, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Hedong area, the representative is Xingyao.

When Luo Zhaoyun was studying at Liao University, he took an elective course on archaeological craft appreciation, and he usually turned over a lot of books, and he was considered an introduction to the identification of antiques, so he could see these basic characteristics at a glance.

However, these ancient artifacts in life have no meaning to him, and when they come back, these things have passed the freshness period, so it is not strange.

"Mu He, I'm going to practice in the house in a while, you help me control the wind outside, if someone comes to our small courtyard, you cough and warn me and inform me."

Mu He heard that he wanted to practice, and he seemed to understand something, nodded and said, "Cheng, I'll go out and control the wind." After the little girl finished speaking, she turned around and lifted the corner of her skirt and was about to go out.

"Wait." Luo Zhaoyun shouted.

"Oh, what else?" Mu He turned around and asked suspiciously.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at her wearing only a narrow sleeved green Luo shirt, and a thin pleated skirt of the same color underneath, and said softly: "Put on my robe, the night breeze is getting cold, beware of the wind and cold." ”

Mu He was stunned for a moment, listening to Luo Zhaoyun's careful care, for some reason, his nose was a little sour, tears swirled, he nodded with a smile, lifted a robe from the table, draped it on his body, and walked out of the house.
