The first ray of sunshine in the morning falls on the snow-covered ridges of the house. The snow slowly melts, and pure water drops drip from the cornices.
Water droplets fell into a porcelain vase about the size of a palm under the eaves, and a dull echo of "dropping waves" could be heard.
When Hao Niang got up in the morning, she stepped on the snow, and there was a "whooshing" sound under her feet. He walked over to the porcelain vase and listened for a while. After making sure that the snow water inside was enough to make a pot of tea, he picked up the porcelain vase with a smile.
The maids had already cleared away the snow from the stone table not far away, and thick cushions and mats were spread around it.
Cai Yan was sitting on the warm cushion, her hands moving smoothly, and it was always so pleasing to watch her cleaning the tea cups.
Seeing that her fingers were red, Wei B handed her the hand-warming Tang Pozi and said, "Warm it first, and then leave it to me." Hao Niang came over with the porcelain bottle and said with a smile, "Just enough to boil a pot." It's for tea." Wei B took the porcelain bottle, poured the snow water into the copper pot, and carefully placed it on the small red clay stove to boil.
Cai Yan pulled Hao Niang over, and the two beauties cuddled each other for warmth, chatting and laughing naturally. In fact, there is a briquette stove for heating indoors. If you want to drink tea or something, you can drink it indoors.
However, Cai Yan is now pregnant, and Wei B wants her to breathe more fresh air, and she also likes watching snow.
So, this morning, the three of them made an appointment to kill time by cooking tea and enjoying the snow. Today is a day off for bathing. According to the meaning of ancient people, it is a day for people to take a special day off to take a bath.
Especially in winter, some people may not take a bath once every ten days and a half. Therefore, for those who like to be clean, taking a bath is a day worth enjoying.
"Husband, I heard that the bathhouse is opening today?" Cai Yan heard Hao Niang's words, and a flash of emotion flashed in his eyes.
Not only Wei B, but also Hao Niang mentioned this because she wanted to go.
"Brother Wei designed the bathhouse. The bathhouse is so big. If you can take a dip in it, it will definitely be very comfortable!" Cai Yan is a wealthy lady herself. Others are used to taking a bath once every ten days and a half, but she doesn't care. It is a hot summer and a severe winter, so I have to shower and change clothes every day, especially in summer, sometimes I have to wash several times a day.
Hearing what Hao Niang said so vividly, how could Cai Yan not be moved. Although there is a bathtub at home, it is too cramped and pales in comparison to the bathtub.
Wei B sipped the tea, heard the words, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go?" The original intention of designing the bathhouse is actually inseparable from the first five-year plan. The development of a city is inseparable from economic growth, and the same It is also inseparable from the improvement of humanistic qualities.
I still remember that one day half a month ago, Wei B accidentally discovered the outlaw Zhang San (Zhang Fei) changing clothes without taking a shower.
The temperature was already a bit low at that time, so it wouldn't matter if I didn't take a shower for a day. But Wei B could clearly see that after Zhang Fei took off his socks, the world in front of him was a blur... It was so eye-catching!
After asking later, it turned out that Zhang Fei was not the only one like this. Xu Huang, Le Jin, Yang Feng, Hua Kun, and others, as well as the sergeants of the city guard, also took a long time to take a bath. It was not because they were lazy, but because they were simply accustomed to such a life schedule.
They are already pretty good. There are many poor people who don't even have to take a bath three times a year. If they feel hot in summer, they jump into streams or rivers and dog paddle. Anyway, there is no soap or anything, so they just dip in water.
"I want to go!" Cai Yan's eyes lit up. Recently, because of her pregnancy, Wei B had strictly regulated her schedule and daily actions. As a result, she was unable to visit many of the places she wanted to visit in person. She could only listen to Hao Niang and Zhong Chan come back to talk to her, but she was extremely envious of them.
Wei B also knew that he was a little strict all of a sudden. After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "Okay, before you eat yet, I will take you to experience it."?
??Anyi County is divided into four cities: east, west, north and south. Among them, the North City was populated by dignitaries from aristocratic families. With the Wei family's mansion as the center, there were more than twenty mansions of aristocratic families scattered nearby.
Considering many factors, Wei B built a total of ten bathhouses, including five in the north of the city.
After all, it is an item that requires money to consume. Ordinary people are not willing to spend this unjust money. If you have money to take a bath, you might as well eat more meat.
Xuanwu Avenue in front of the Wei Mansion, as the most prosperous place in the north of the city and even in the entire Anyi, naturally has a bathhouse.
And it's not far away. Just walk out of the gate of Wei Mansion and walk to the intersection. At this time, the outside of the bathhouse was already crowded with people watching the excitement.
The appearance of Wei B and the three people immediately attracted the attention of many people. Among them were the young masters who knew Wei B and hurriedly greeted him. People living in the north of the city were all from aristocratic families. They would definitely not be noisy. They had good quality. Dead.
On the other hand, the women who knew Cai Yan, or wanted to get close to Cai Yan, were much more enthusiastic. If the guards hadn't stopped them, they would have been chatting with Cai Yan for a long time.
With the help of the bathhouse owner and several waiters, the three of them entered the store first. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was in the Flame Mountain.
"Wow, it's so hot here!" Cai Yan wanted to take off his fox fur cloak because the temperature difference was too big.
There were seven or eight briquette stove-like objects placed around the hall, which were covered with black stones. Someone poured water on them, and the hot stones instantly raised a large amount of white mist. The white mist steamed, and the air seemed to become hotter.
A girl dressed as a maid next to her came forward, took the cloak from Cai Yan's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Three nobles, please come here. We have a separate room specially prepared for distinguished guests." The shopkeeper not far away was satisfied when he saw this. nod.
Of course, these procedures for receiving people and treating guests were taught by Wei B to the shopkeeper, who then taught them to these female waitresses.
The three guards and three followed the girl to a two-story wooden building in the backyard. There are a total of six small buildings in this area, and the single-story area is not large. After all, it is in the north of the city where land is at a premium, and most of the land is occupied by aristocratic families. It is good to have six separate VIP boxes.
uu看书.uukanshu. In addition to these six independent small buildings, the front area is divided into two different areas.
The area of a single area is large enough to accommodate hundreds of people entering at the same time, receiving male and female guests respectively. There is a large public bath inside, and even the masters who take the bath are middle-aged uncles and aunts.
The VIP box is different. They are all polite little girls... Cai Yan: (?_?)
"You guys go out, we will do it ourselves." Several young girls in thin clothes looked at each other, wondering what they had done wrong to make the distinguished guests so unhappy on the first day of work.
Wei B said awkwardly to the waitress beside him,
"Pay their money and let them all go out first." The waitress covered her mouth and smiled secretly, then respectfully left with a few girls. In fact, they were really just technicians who helped with bathing and massage. , the Great Sword is not provided here.
But who makes pregnant women sensitive and fragile? Wei B thought that he could come secretly next time... He just wanted to clean himself up a little bit and had nothing to do with those girls.
"Husband, let's build a bath like this ourselves."
"Huh?" Cai Yan narrowed his eyes and clenched his small fists in front of his chest.
"Why, husband, you think it's inappropriate?" Wei B laughed, hiding the little Jiujiu in his heart. Hao Niang, who was beside her, was already overjoyed. In fact, in her opinion, it was normal for men to spend a lot of time and so on. Those young men from aristocratic families were not like this. A person like Wei B, who was so clean and self-possessed, was already a good man with many good qualities.
but. Hao Niang glanced around. Is there just one bath in this house? Wouldn't that be...
