There were a total of six hot water buckets, all of which were large wooden barrels painted with tung oil, and Su He moved them into the small cubicle next to Qin Yao's bedroom one by one, where there was a space separated by a screen, and inside was a larger wooden barrel with eighteen oak blocks with curves.

Yes, this is Qin Yao's big bathtub.

This is something that Qin Yao has always dreamed of having when he was still in the Qin Mansion, Qin Yao spent a long time saving his own money to find someone to do it, but after doing it, the tragedy found that there was no place to put this thing in the Qin Mansion at all, if Qin Fu knew, he might split it into firewood, so he kept it in the woodware shop. The owner of the wood shop often chattered, thinking that things were too big and occupied space to affect his business, and later wanted to move the dowry to the Second Prince's Mansion, so Qin Yao secretly brought this big wooden basin.

At that time, when I moved into the Second Prince's Mansion, because the goal was too big, everyone thought that Qin Yao had brought him a bed, but when he saw the real thing, many people thought that Qin Yao had a hobby of making kimchi, and wondered why it was a bit of a waste to make kimchi in such a big pot, and there was a lack of a lid.

The hot water of the six wooden barrels, Su He is a strong man in his bones, and he moved them all in, and then poured them into the bathtub, and after a while, the inside of this compartment was steaming. In fact, this big basin needs at least eight buckets of water to hold about it, and six buckets into it, it is estimated that Qin Yao will have just enough water to reach his waist when he sits in it.

The little girl was guarding Qin Yao in the house, in fact, it was said that she was guarding, it was better to say that the little girl was observing Qin Yao, after all, the legendary first concubine of the Second Prince's Mansion, the little girl was also seeing it for the first time, but ...... Qin Yao's current appearance is really sorry for the identity of the second prince and concubine.

Qin Yao's face is no longer as red and swollen as it was at the beginning, and now the bruises are revealed, and a large white bath towel is wrapped in a colorful girl, the key is that this girl's original appearance is not very memorable, but the current appearance is definitely unforgettable.

The little girl was stunned for a moment, and forgot that she should salute Qin Yao, Qin Yao saw that the little girl was so tall, with such thin arms and legs, and she had to carry hot water, and she was a little embarrassed, although now was not a good time to chat, but after all, this idea of affinity and Datong was more rooted in Qin Yao's mind, so Qin Yao felt that she was coming, let's talk together.

Qin Yao showed a smile that she thought was full of friendship and affinity, she forgot that her face was geometric now, so it should have been made by aligning the corners of both mouths and upturning this smile now, there is no affinity, friendliness, making people close or even close relatives, intuitively it is incomprehensible, strange, and a little scary.

The little girl was a little scared, Qin Yao smiled crookedly, she was even more nervous, thinking that she didn't ask for peace at the first time, was Qin Yao angry, and when she was afraid, she knelt down directly: "Second princess, I didn't mean to, I, I served the second princess for the first time, I, I forgot to salute." ”

The little girl knelt on the ground, her head bowed tightly, her shoulders thin, cowering and trembling.

"Su He! Suhe! Suhe! Qin Yao called Su He in a loud voice, Su He had just moved out of the six big empty buckets one by one from the small cubicle, and now he was standing at the side door of Qin Yao's big room with his waist crossed and panting, when he heard Qin Yao call her, his first reaction was that Ye Qinghong and his foolish attendant must have come back again, and he turned around and dragged a flat pole carrying water to the house.

"Miss, don't be afraid, I'll tell you, whoever bullies you again, I'll sweep them out." Su He dragged the flat pole into the house with both hands, and saw the little girl kneeling on the ground, and Qin Yao pointing at him with his mouth open.

"What about the second prince, and that person, don't be afraid, Miss has me."

Qin Yao was very helpless, Su He's flat pole dragged on the ground was at least as thick as Su He's two arms together, and Su He just dragged the flat pole here, it is estimated that it is impossible to lift it, just this weapon, and sweep others out?

Su He looked around the house, only the three of them, relieved, threw the flat pole on the ground, and asked while rubbing his arm: "Miss, why are you calling me, I just prepared the water, who is it, you have to go to the kitchen to boil the water, this water is not enough." Six more barrels, and if you can't move it yourself, call a few more people to help you. ”

The little girl was still shrunk on the ground, she didn't dare to raise her head, Su He looked at Qin Yao, and the eyes of the two of them glanced at each other very tacitly in mid-air, "There is something wrong with this matter" came to such a conclusion.

Qin Yao was unable to move, so she was still sitting there as a big ornament, Su He took a step forward, lifted the little girl up and asked, "Who wants you to bring water from the kitchen of the East Courtyard?" ”

The little girl trembled and said: "It's Mother Wu, Mother Xie, who is in charge of the kitchen in the East Courtyard, said that I can't do anything well, and I should have sold it a long time ago, Mother Wu couldn't stop Mother Xie, I was afraid that she would beat me, so I asked me to deliver water, Mother Xie said that I was not worthy, and later said that this is a good opportunity to get close to the second princess, such an opportunity can not be touched by others, this life is pointed out to me, so I can only send it myself." And if I want to keep an eye on it, no one else can help me. The little girl's eyes turned red as she spoke.

Although Qin Yao is not a maid, but the twists and turns of the inner house in the Qin Mansion have seen and heard since the day she woke up, she knows that there is a mother Xie in the kitchen of the East Courtyard, or Ye Qinghong was in charge of the kitchen of the Second Prince's Mansion before marriage, this person should be the person assigned by the Internal Affairs Office when Ye Qinghong opened the mansion, in other words, the kitchen housekeeper assigned by the Internal Affairs Office to the Second Prince's Mansion, whether it is the owner of this mansion, she is the manager of the second-class kitchen in this mansion, and she really belongs to the "official family." "That's it. And like her, she is a person who is configured with the government and managed by the internal affairs office, and there are many people in the Second Prince's Mansion, most of whom hold their own identities, and feel that they are not ordinary servants, and most of them are doing light housework, and most of them are in charge of other people's affairs.

Su He has been looking at the little girl's knee since he lifted the little girl from the ground, and found that the little girl's legs were not standing straight, so he reached out and poked the little girl's knee, but he didn't expect that just like that, the little girl knelt down again, no, it should be said that she fell directly to the ground.

"Miss, Miss, I didn't make any effort I didn't bully her, Miss, what's going on?" Su He was startled when he saw the little girl's road, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the little girl, and the little girl had a headache with beads of sweat.

"Su He, you lifted her skirt and looked at her calves." Qin Yao's voice was a little muffled because of her swollen face.

"Oh, what is this!" Su He lowered her head and lifted the little girl's skirt and found that she was only wearing an outer skirt, and the inner skirt was short, and it was already worn, and it was stained with blood. The little girl's calves are scars similar to whips and bamboo sticks, and her knees should be wounds caused by broken bricks or broken tiles from kneeling. Coupled with the fact that she had been carrying the bucket hard, these wounds were in a state of congestion.

In other words, in front of Su He Qin Yao, this little girl, this is a little girl who helps the cook in the east courtyard of Ye Qinghong's Second Prince's Mansion, a child less than ten years old who was beaten with injuries on her legs and her knees.
