Ding Hao was in a room with Xue Liang and Feng Dazhang, and he asked for hot water at night and scalded his feet, and then went to sleep on the kang. Today, the whole inn is full, so the fire kang burns really, and as soon as the sour body lies down, the heat of the fire irons into the bones, which is very relieving. But when it came time to sleep, Ding Hao even had the heart to cry.

It turned out that Feng's snoring was too loud, in fact, the pigs were also snoring, but compared to Feng's whip, it was really trivial. Feng Dazhang's whistling not only shocked the world and cried ghosts and gods, but also snoring like singing, each snoring was not in the same key, high and low, thick and thin, this time Ding Hao's idea of waiting for the snoring to be tired of listening to the idea of falling asleep was also dispelled.

I have to hurry tomorrow morning, and it is not a way to carry it all night with such a star, Ding Hao sat up worriedly. As soon as he moved, the pig on the side whispered: "What, you can't sleep?" ”

Ding Hao was taken aback: "You haven't slept yet?" ”

The two of them were silent, both "poof" and laughed, and after a while, Zhen Zhu'er whispered, "Why don't I call Uncle Feng up?" Let him change his position, maybe the movement can be a little smaller. ”

"Don't, Uncle Feng is also very hard, don't call him." Ding Hao said, and began to get dressed, and Zhen Zhu'er asked quietly, "Why are you going?" ”

Ding Hao said: "With such a big movement, I really can't sleep, I'll go out and see if I can find a place to sleep." ”

Ding Hao walked out of the house with a cover, the kang was still hot, but this time out of the house, the air conditioning hit people in the middle of the night, how could there be a place to sleep? Ding Hao walked around the small courtyard with the bunk covered for a while, and saw the aisle in the middle from the restaurant in front to the guest room in the back, and there were many stools next to it, Ding Hao thought: "Why don't I put the stools together and make up one night here?" No, if someone goes in and out at night and sees a person lying here upright, won't it scare people? Besides, it's too cold here, and I'll get frostbite after a night's sleep. ”

In desperation, Ding Hao hugged the cover and walked back, and when he got to the porch, a figure came out, and the two of them were startled when they looked at each other. Looking closely at the red lantern under the porch, the man was the young man with peach blossom eyes that he had seen during the meal.

The man said, "Hey, what are you doing in the middle of the night, scare me." ”

Ding Hao smiled dryly: "The guy in the same room is snoring too loudly, don't I can't sleep, are you?" ”

The man smiled deliciously: "You are quite particular, don't you just tear off the corners of the quilt and plug your ears with some cotton?" When you're away from home, let's spend the night. I think the house is very good, run out of the toilet, it's cold here, the butt is about to freeze, I have to hurry back to the house to warm up, see you tomorrow. ”

"I'll see you tomorrow." After the two said hello, the man walked away, Ding Hao returned to the house, quietly tore the corners of the quilt according to his method, pulled out two small balls of cotton and stuffed them into his ears, the snoring was really small, at least it was not so unbearable. He hurriedly told Zhen Zhu'er about this method, and the two of them were reluctant, and they were finally confused.

As soon as the day dawned, Feng Da got up energetically, and also aroused Ding Hao and Xue Liang, and asked with great concern: "Did you sleep last night?" ”

The two yawned and got up, looked at each other and smiled bitterly, but said in their mouths: "It's okay, the kang is warm, it's very comfortable, it's just going out and sleeping...... Not too down-to-earth. ”

"Hehe, it's good to get used to it. The owner of this shop is a kind man, otherwise I would have chosen his shop to live in. It's good to live comfortably, get up quickly, pick up and eat, we still have to hurry. ”

The ancients had more trouble washing than in modern times, because men also had to comb their hair and tie their hair. In this era, there was already soap, which was made of goat oil and plant ash, and the cleaning effect was good, but it was too rough, it felt bad, and there was no fragrance, so ordinary people used it to wash their faces, and poorer people simply used rice washing water.

Wealthier families still use soapcorn, algae beans, or fat beads for detergents. Fat beads are also a kind of plant seeds, which are fatter than soaphorn and algae beans, so they are called soap after being made into paste, which has the same name as the soap used in modern times. A more advanced soap is a liquid made from a mixture of peas and vanilla, which is the cleaning product of large households.

There are also toothbrushes, and it is said that they came from the northern Tartars, but once they arrived in the Central Plains, the craftsmanship was more exquisite than that of the Tartars. The style of the toothbrush is very similar to that of modern toothbrushes, except that the brush is not nylon, but bristles. There are dozens of tooth powders for brushing teeth, all of which are made of various Chinese herbal medicines, each with different effects of teeth cleaning, fragrance and tooth fixing. However, Feng Dazhang Whip and Ding Hao couldn't afford it, they all brushed their teeth with a toothbrush dipped in green salt foam.

Ding Hao was bending over to brush his teeth in the yard, Miss Ding walked in neatly, she was carrying a horse whip, still dressed as a man, and when she saw Ding Hao, she showed a shallow smile and said, "Dumb, is Feng Dazhang whipped?" ”

Ding Hao hurriedly rinsed his mouth, got up and said, "Let's get up, we are about to have some food and go to find the eldest lady immediately." ”

Ding Yuluo said: "I went out before, I didn't bring so many people, Deacon Liu and they don't have much experience, thanks to Feng's big whip, I had too many things to settle down last night, but I ignored Old Man Feng, I didn't come to see him early in the morning, and along the way, I had to give more guidance from the old man." ”

While the two were talking, a door opened with a "clang", and a teenager hurriedly snatched it out from inside, with five bright red fingerprints on his left face, and opened his mouth and shouted: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, hurry up, my master's things are lost." ”

Many people in the yard were washing, and they all looked at him stunned, only to see that this person was wearing a small coat, not dressed neatly, with a frightened look, and then another person paced out of the room, this person had big ears and eyebrows like heavy ink, it was the middle-aged man who dined in the restaurant last night, his clothes were not neatly dressed, he was grinning, and the dark clouds on his face seemed to be blowing away from the wind.

The shopkeeper hurriedly ran over when he heard the news and asked hurriedly, "Guest officer, what did you lose ......?"

Before he finished speaking, the young man grabbed him by the collar and shouted angrily: "Look at your shop is quite clean, how can there be a small man, my master's important things are gone, and you, as the shopkeeper, can't get out of it." ”

The shopkeeper's surname is Qiu, his name is Qiu Laoshi, and he is indeed a loyal and honest person, he immediately panicked when he heard this, and quickly brushed it off: "Ouch, this little guest officer, you can't talk nonsense." My small shop, a small business, just for the north and south of the guest officers to have a place to eat and sleep, you have to take care of your own things, this is only a night of hard work you said that you lost something, in the end what do you have, and what you lost, I don't know this store, and I can't bear that responsibility......"

"Hey, you're clean, there's no way, you can't get things back, you old thing has to go to prison!"

As he was talking, Feng Dazhang Whip walked out of the house, Ding Yuluo casually glanced at the master and servant who were arguing with the shopkeeper, greeted Feng Dazhang Whip, hugged his fists and said, "Old Man Feng, you have worked hard these days." After breakfast for a while, I have to bother the old man to help Zhang Luo get up, the sooner we go, the better. ”

"Hehe, Lao Feng eats this bowl of rice, it's not hard, the owner has instructions, call someone to inform you, how dare you work your big driver, I'll go to Zhang Luo in a while."

"Stop!" The middle-aged man suddenly spoke in a gloomy voice, looking at his eyes, faintly red: "Before I find my things, who dares to leave?" All the people in this store, leave them for me! ”

Deacon Liu, who was following behind Ding Yuluo, sneered when he heard this: "You lost something and did our?" You say you can't go, you can't go? It's really a fairy fart, so big, I missed the big event of our family, and I can't get back the capital if I cut you off and sell meat. ”

The middle-aged man was furious, and before he could speak, the little boy who was waiting for him had already stepped forward, pointed at Liu Shiyi and shouted, "Presumptuous! Hello big bold! My lord is the county lieutenant of Linqing, and he took office immediately, but he was touched by the official seal in this thief shop, what a big deal is this? No matter how important your business is, it is bigger than my master? Before the official seal is recovered, everyone will be involved, and you will stay there honestly for me one by one, and whoever dares to leave will be a thief. ”

When Ding Yuluo heard this, he almost sweated, the county lieutenant is second only to the official of a county, that is a county magistrate in charge of judicial security, criminal and prison proceedings, his official seal is lost, what is it? It is true that the Ding family is powerful, and the local officials also give face, but does this mean that they can override the local officials? Since the other party is the county lieutenant of Linqing, I am afraid that it will not be possible to force him to leave, if this official seal cannot be found for a while, will the Ding family's grain team be trapped in this Qingshui Town?

The county lieutenant was also really anxious, the loss of the official seal was a big deal, and it was a big deal that was not easy to publicize, and he was looking forward to solving this matter quietly, and he didn't want that little guy to be unaware of the stakes, so he made it public. This can't be concealed, and it is certain that he has lost a big face before he takes office, but it is related to his own future, and he can't scruple so much at this time, so he turned his heart sideways at the moment, and said: "Liu Xiao, you take my notebook and go to summon the township service elders of this town, let them bring some people to maintain order here, and then hurry to Linqing County, explain the situation to the county lord, and ask him to send a head to arrest a team to arrest the thief here." ”

After a while, the local lieutenant Baozheng, the head of the household, the township clerk and other small officials heard that the county lieutenant had lost his official seal here, so he led a group of people who were urgently summoned to run here, and the water around the Changfeng Tavern was impassable.
