Jia Yun introduced: "Qiong Yu, the youngest son of Bachelor Qiong Hua, is well-versed in food, drink, prostitution and gambling. He is also ranked high among the dandies in the capital."
"And this Qiongyu also has another problem. He likes to torture girls. He has tortured more than a dozen maids in his family to death."
"Daughters from good families are unwilling to be sold to their families as maids. Therefore, if Qiongyu wants to buy a maid, she will often send people to the countryside to buy her, and sometimes she will go there herself."
"If he meets someone he likes, Mr. Qiongyu, he will buy it forcibly. His father is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, so the people have no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow blood, but there is no trouble. Things come up.”
Hearing this, Jia Huan couldn't help but order: "Brother Yun, go to Lijia Village and find out who the most handsome village girl in Lijia Village is. Then lead this Qiongyu to Lijia Village."
Seeing the slight change in color on Jia Yun's face, Jia Huan explained: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu has a great background. Besides, I will never sit back and watch the village girl fall into the tiger's mouth. I can ensure that nothing happens to her." "
Jia Yun said quickly: "Yes, Third Uncle, I will make arrangements right away."
…
Let's say that after the prince had eaten, he came to Lao Litou and expressed that he wanted to take a bath.
Old Li Tou led the prince into the courtyard, pointed to the water tank and said, "No, Mr. Liu, the bath is right here."
The prince asked in astonishment: "Old man, there's not even a bathtub here, how can you take a bath?"
Old Li Tou chuckled and said: "I, the common people, take a bath. Where can I find a bathtub? Come on, San'er, come and teach Mr. Liu how to take a bath."
Li Sanwen said angrily: "Okay, Dad, I'll come right away."
Li San strode over, first carrying a bucket of water, then stripped naked a few times, and poured the water on himself.
The prince quickly turned his face away and shouted that he was uncultured.
Next, Li San rubbed his body vigorously for a while, then watered it twice, and then he finished the bath.
Old Li Tou chuckled and said, "Master Liu, you see, this is how you take a bath."
The prince asked in disbelief: "In this courtyard? So naked? This..."
Old Li Tou chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Master Liu. My daughter-in-law won't go out at night, so you can just wash her."
Hearing what Old Li Tou said, the prince couldn't help but be speechless.
Is this what I'm asking?
Next, Lao Li Tou, Li Da, Li Er, and even Tiedan and Gangdan all took a bath.
The prince was very tired at this time and just wanted to lie on the bed and have a good sleep.
But I felt so sticky and uncomfortable.
In the end, the prince couldn't bear it any longer, so he had to take off his coat in a hurry while there was no one in the yard - he even kept a piece of clothing for his sinuses.
Then he followed Li San's example, rubbing hard for a while, and then watering again.
After washing, he put on his coat and hurriedly fled into the house.
Old Li Tou's house has five rooms, three main rooms, and the last two rooms were built later.
Lao Li Tou's eldest son's family lived in the two main rooms in the middle, and Lao Li Tou lived in the main house on the east.
The remaining two rooms are for Li Er and Li San.
Now that Mr. Liu is here, Li Er moves in with Li San and gives up his house to Mr. Li.
When Mr. Liu entered the room, he smelled a strange smell that was damp and stuffy.
He endured the discomfort and lay down on the bed.
It turned out that the bed was very hard, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
But today, he was so tired that he quickly fell into a drowsy state and dozed off.
At this moment, a buzzing sound of mosquitoes sounded.
Not long after, he felt pain in his arm, and he suddenly woke up.
Snapped!
The prince slapped the mosquitoes to death, but he couldn't sleep for a while.
However, the mosquitoes never stopped, and no matter how many he killed, there seemed to be no shortage.
After a while, he broke out in a sweat.
I was so groggy that I couldn't sleep well all night.
It was almost dawn, and the mosquitoes seemed to have had their fill of blood. They finally stopped for a while, and the weather became cooler.
The prince then fell asleep soundly.
"Mr. Liu, it's time for breakfast!"
However, Lao Li's first shout woke him up again.
The prince walked out of the door yawning with big dark circles under his eyes.
Breakfast was steamed buns and porridge again. Although the steamed buns were still hard to swallow, the prince didn't find it that bad today.
He struggled to eat the steamed buns and drank two large bowls of porridge.
After dinner, Old Li Tou said honestly: "Mr. Liu, our conditions in the countryside are poor. I'm afraid you didn't sleep well yesterday, so don't go to work in the fields with us today. This kind of work is not what it is. Your young master did it."
This time, the prince did not refuse.
Because he was sleepy, tired, and in poor physical condition, he suspected that he would die in the ground if he went to the ground today.
After Lao Litou and his family went to work in the fields again, the prince went back to the house and took a nap.
When he first lay in bed, the prince was still thinking about the role of culture and education.
After yesterday's day's work and Old Li Tou's answer to happiness, the prince suddenly felt that the role of culture and education was not as great as imagined.
He didn't even know if there was any culture and education in this village.
After just a moment, the prince stopped thinking because he was too sleepy and fell asleep soundly.
I don't know how long I slept, but the prince was woken up by someone.
After listening carefully, I found that it was the screams of pain coming from the Li family.
It turned out that Li's family was about to give birth, and they had already felt unbearable abdominal pain just now.
After hearing the news, the prince did not dare to neglect. He hurriedly ran towards the fields of Lao Li Tou's house.
After a while, the prince, who was sweating profusely, finally ran to the edge of the field and shouted loudly.
Not long after, after hearing the news, Lao Li Tou and Li Da hurried back.
Li Er and Li San also have two children who are still working in the fields.
This gave the prince a very strange feeling. It seemed that the Li family did not pay much attention to the upcoming child.
It was difficult for him to understand why this was the case. Wouldn't it be joyful for anyone to have a baby, and the whole family be happy?
Maybe it's because they lack education?
Soon, they returned to Old Li Tou's house. Old Li Tou went to boil water, while Li Da went to invite Po Wen.
Probably because of the three previous births, this birth went very smoothly.
Not long after, a baby's cry was heard in the house.
Po Wen smiled and announced the good news: "Congratulations to the master, you are blessed with a daughter, three pounds and eight taels. Mother and daughter are safe."
Is it a girl? The joy of making tiles! That's great!
Although the prince has no children yet, he still likes girls more.
Perhaps this has a lot to do with the fact that there was only one princess in the last two generations of their royal family, and he liked his sister Princess Anle very much.
The wrinkles on Lao Li Tou's mulberry bark-like face were thicker.
He couldn't help but muttered: "It's a girl!"
He gave Wenpo a few copper coins and sent Wenpo away.
Li Da walked into the room and picked up the girl. Everyone in Li was crying softly.
The prince always felt that the atmosphere was very strange.
