Chapter 113: Paper
led Qiuyue to Lao Cao's courtyard, and along the way, he listened to the muttering of the two priests' shopkeepers.
"Tian Shenu, I have never seen such a difficult person to serve, there must be thirty or forty people before and after, I am stunned that none of them are eye-catching, just looking for a maid, and I still want us to get Mrs. Hua Rui of Hou Shu?"
"Who says it's not, this shopkeeper Cao looks like a kind person, and his reputation is also good in Kaifeng City, why is this happening."
Sun Yue thought for a moment and interjected, "Are all of what you are looking for beautiful?" ”
The two little officials were startled when they heard this, they didn't see Sun Yue just now, so they hurriedly bowed and saluted, after all, it was quite embarrassing to say bad things about the proprietor behind their backs.
Sun Yue waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let me ask you, are all the girls you picked for Uncle Cao beautiful?" ”
"That's natural, all the people who came to your home today are carefully selected, whether they are good looking or smart, they are all one in a hundred."
"Hmm...... You try to put on something old and ugly. ”
"Huh?"
"My Uncle Cao is afraid of guilt, if your maid is too beautiful, he won't dare to accept it, and he is embarrassed to say it clearly for the sake of face, if you try it according to my method, it will definitely work."
The two little officials looked at each other, maybe they were really given by Lao Cao and had no tricks, and they really brought in a girl who was originally going to be a cook and sell it, but it was a strong woman with a big butt and a round face, who was generally thick and short legs, and looked like a pig standing up.
Lao Cao stared at it dumbfounded for a long time, and asked in disbelief: "This special mother is the maid who serves Lao Tzu?" "I thought, this is to serve my mother, I'm afraid it's too rough.
As soon as he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, Zhang slapped the table and said, "This girl is good, she fits her eyes at a glance, what is the origin, I want it." ”
Lao Cao was about to cry: "Madam, think twice! I...... I know what you mean, but you're a little bit more across. Then he secretly leaned in Zhang's ear and whispered: "I can't stand up looking at her, this will affect our husband and wife life."
Zhang was overjoyed when he heard it: "Really? Great, it's her and I want it, isn't there no maid in Xiaoqing's house, this will be given to her, outsiders in the province say that I, the housewife, are mean to her. ”
Lao Cao: "............"
Sun Yue looked at it on the side for a while, but it was really a happy situation, so he went to Cao Wan with a smile.
"Sister, how is it, do you have a pick?"
Cao Wan turned around and saw that it was Sun Yue, so she had to smile bitterly and said, "Not yet, the key is that I'm still not sure what Lu Lang will like." ”
Sun Yue smiled: "Oh, I'll bring you one, this woman is good, the eldest brother will like it, if there is really a concubine who dares to compete for favor in the future, I can also help you clean her up, have you seen it?" ”
Cao Wan smiled: "Since it was Brother Yue who said it, it must be appropriate to think about it, so let's settle it like this." ”
"How's Big Brother doing?"
"Reading, studying, managing the gymnasium, what was the case before and what is still the case now, it's okay."
After talking again, I saw Cao Jun running over, and said with a laugh: "Brother Yue, sister, look at you, how is my maid, hahahahaha." ”
Sun Yue turned around, and saw that there was a little black girl standing behind Cao Jun, who looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old, older than Cao Wan, although she looked delicate, but she couldn't get along with beauty, flat chest and thick legs, and no buttocks, Sun Yue really couldn't understand what kind of aesthetic he was.
The little girl was a little shy, bowed her head and saluted: "Ping'er has seen Young Master Sun, and I have seen Miss." ”
Cao Jun patted Ping'er's shoulder excitedly, patted it loudly, and said: "How about it, it's good, among these girls I saw today, she can fight with him, her father was still a military general before she fell into a lowly position, just now the two of us had a fight, I almost didn't beat her." ”
Sun Yue was speechless: "That...... Brother Jun, this is looking for a big girl, not a sparring partner, do you know what a big girl does? ”
Cao Jun said: "Of course I know, my mother told me that in addition to taking care of my daily life, the big girl is also responsible for playing wrestling games with me. ”
"Well, that's how you understand wrestling, wait, you said she was hurt?"
Cao Jun pointed to the middle of Ping'er's legs and said, "No, you see, there was a lot of blood just now, and it all seeped outside." ”
“…………”
Seeing that Ping'er's face was so red, Cao Wan couldn't sit still, so she couldn't help but hit him with something and scolded: "You have wood in your brain, when will you be able to open your mind, our Cao family is still pointing to you to pass on the ancestry." ”
Cao Jun looked confused, not understanding why he was scolded, but Cao Wan ignored him and led Ping'er to deal with the menstrual affairs.
When Cao Wan came back, Sun Yue couldn't help asking, "Has my sister already come to Tiankui?" I really don't know. ”
Cao Jun said: "What is a sunflower?" ”
Cao Wan blushed, glared at him and said, "One is not ripe, and the other is mushy, what kind of brother do I have on the stall." ”
Sun Yue smiled and said, "Don't make trouble, there is nothing we can say about our sister and brother." ”
Cao Wan said angrily: "If you understand, hurry over to help, and get some grass and wood ash with me." ”
"Grass and wood ash? What are you doing with this? ”
Cao Wan glanced at him and said, "Don't you understand, what else do you ask?" ”
Sun Yue was really stunned, what did he understand?
Cao Wan said angrily: "Of course it's wrapped in a strip of cloth." Saying that, even if he had already taken Sun Yue as his own brother, he couldn't help blushing.
"Wrapped in strips of cloth? Yes! You're probably using it to suck blood. ”
Seeing that Cao Wan was eager to pinch him to death, Sun Yue had no choice but to say timidly: "That...... Why not use paper? If you wrap paper in a cloth, it should be better than plant ash, and it is relatively hygienic. ”
Cao Wan was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Sun Yue with a smile.
"That...... You've never thought about using paper. ”
“…………”
This is Sun Yue's ignorance, women in ancient times, in fact, did not use the place to buy menstrual events, this thing has always been passed on by word of mouth, make your own, and paper began to spread to ordinary people's homes, in fact, it is a matter of the past few years, and it is expensive to die, so people use the most is grass and wood ash, even if the rich and noble families began to use paper after the middle of the Song Dynasty, Cao Wan's method of doing menstrual affairs is naturally taught by the Zhang family, so although their family has long been able to afford paper, but they really didn't think so.
"You really don't know you can use paper?"
Cao Wan nodded helplessly.
"Then you come with me, I'll teach you to make a good thing, it's much better than the moon belt."
Cao Wan said angrily: "Which one is taught by you, won't the old lady do it herself?" You understand this kind of girl's things, you get out of the old lady! ”
