My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 236 The matter of taking a bath

The first ray of sunlight in the morning fell on the snow-covered roof ridge, the snow slowly melted, and pure water droplets dripped from the cornices.

Drops of water fell into the eaves, and in a porcelain vase about the size of a palm, a dull echo of 'dibo' could be heard.

Hao Niang stepped on the snow in the morning, and there was a "swish" sound under her feet.

He stepped to the porcelain vase, listened for a while, and after confirming that there was enough snow water in it to make a pot of tea, he picked up the porcelain vase with a smile.

The stone table not far away has been swept away by maids, and thick cushions and mats have been spread around it.

Cai Yan sat on the warm cushion, her hands were moving smoothly, watching her clean the teacup was always so pleasing to the eye.

Seeing that her fingers were red, Wei Cheng handed her the hand-warming Mrs. Tang, and said, "Warm it first, then leave it to me."

Hao Niang also came over with the porcelain bottle, and said with a smile, "It's just enough to make a pot of tea."

Wei Cheng took the porcelain bottle, poured the snow water into the copper pot, and carefully put it on the small red clay stove to boil.

Cai Yan pulled Hao Niang, and the two beauties snuggled up to each other for warmth, talking and laughing naturally.

In fact, there is a briquette stove indoors for heating. If you want to drink tea or something, you can drink it indoors.

However, Cai Yan is pregnant now, Wei Cheng wants her to breathe more fresh air, and she also likes watching snow.So, this morning, the three of them made an appointment to cook tea and enjoy the snow in the morning to pass the time.

Today is the day of rest and bathing. According to the meaning of the ancients, it is a day for taking a bath on purpose.

Especially in winter, some people don't have to take a bath for ten days and half a month. Therefore, for those who like to be clean, taking a bath is a happy day.

"Husband, I heard that the bathhouse opened today?" Cai Yan's eyes flickered when he heard Hao Niang's words.

Not only Wei Cheng, but Hao Niang also mentioned this sentence because she wanted to go.

"Brother Wei designed the bathhouse. The bath is so big. If you can take a dip in it, it must be very comfortable!"

Cai Yan herself is a rich lady, and others are used to bathing once every ten days and half a month. No matter it is hot summer or winter, she has to bathe and change clothes every day, especially in summer, sometimes she has to bathe 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 it is nothing compared to the bathtub.

Wei Cheng took a sip of 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 cannot be separated from economic growth, and it is also inseparable from the improvement of humanistic quality.

I still remember that on a certain day half a month ago, Wei Cheng accidentally found outlaw Zhang San (Zhang Fei) changing clothes without taking a shower.

At that time, the temperature was already a little low, and it is reasonable to say that it does not matter if you do not take a bath for a day.

But Wei Cheng could clearly see that after Zhang Fei took off his socks, the world in front of his eyes was blurred... It's so hot!
When asked afterwards, it turned out that Zhang Fei was not alone.

Xu Huang, Le Jin, Yang Feng, Hua Chuan, and others, as well as the soldiers of the city guards, also took a bath for a long time, not because they were lazy, but because they were simply used to this kind of life.

They are already pretty good. Many poor people take the lead and don’t even have a bath three times a year. If they feel hot in summer, they jump into the stream or river. Anyway, they don’t have soap or anything, just dip in the water.

"I want to go!" Cai Yan's eyes lit up.

Recently, because of her pregnancy, Wei Cheng strictly regulated her routine and daily activities, which made her unable to visit many places she wanted to go in person, and could only listen to Hao Niang and Zhong Chan come back and tell her, but she was so envious.

Wei Cheng also knew that he was a little strict all of a sudden, thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's all right, before I have dinner, I will take you to experience it."

···
Anyi County is divided into four cities, east, west, north, south.

Among them, the people living in Beicheng are all dignitaries from aristocratic families. With Wei's mansion as the center, there are more than [-] houses of aristocratic families scattered around it.

Taking various factors into consideration, Wei Cheng had people build ten bathhouses in total, including five in the north of the city.

After all, it is an item that requires money for consumption. Ordinary people are not willing to waste this money. If they have money to take a bath, they might as well eat a few more bites of meat.

The Xuanwu Avenue in front of the Weifu, as the most prosperous place in the north of the city, and even in the whole of 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 onlookers.

The appearance of the three of Wei Cheng immediately attracted the attention of many people. Among them, some young masters who knew Wei Cheng hurriedly bowed their hands to pay tribute. Those who live in the north of the city are all from aristocratic families, and there must be no noise. Quality is a good thing. damn.

Those who knew Cai Yan, or those who wanted to get close to Cai Yan, were much more enthusiastic. If Wei Teng hadn't stopped them, they would have dragged Cai Yan to chat for a long time.

With the help of the shopkeeper of the bathhouse and several fellows, the three of them entered the shop first.

As soon as I entered the door, I felt like I had arrived at the Flame Mountain.

"Wow, it's so hot here!" Cai Yan wanted to take off the fox fur cloak, because the temperature difference was too great.

Seven or eight briquette stove-like objects were placed around the hall, covered with black stones. Someone poured water on them, and the hot stones immediately set off a large amount of white mist. The white mist evaporated, and the air seemed to become hotter.

A girl dressed as a servant girl stepped forward, took the cloak from Cai Yan's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Three nobles, please, we have a private room specially prepared for VIPs." The shopkeeper not far away was satisfied with the situation. nod.

Of course, Wei Cheng taught the process of receiving people and things to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper then taught these waitresses.

The three of Wei Cheng 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 every inch of land is expensive. The land is almost occupied by aristocratic families. It is not bad to have six separate VIP boxes.

Apart from these six independent small buildings, the front area is divided into two distinct areas.

The area of ​​a single area is large enough to accommodate hundreds of people to enter at the same time, and receive male and female guests separately. There is a large public bath in it, and even the masters who scrub are middle-aged uncles and aunts.

The VIP boxes are different, they are all polite little girls...

Cai Yan: (_)
"You guys go out, we will come by ourselves."

Several thinly dressed little girls looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what they had done wrong to offend the distinguished guests on the first day of work.

Wei Cheng embarrassedly said to the waitress at the side, "Pay them as they are, let them all go out first."

The waitress covered her mouth and smiled secretly, and then respectfully left with a few little girls. In fact, they are really just technicians who help with bathing and massage, and no big swords are provided here.

But who makes pregnant women sensitive and fragile?

Wei Cheng thought that he could come here secretly next time...he just wanted to clean himself up a bit, and it had nothing to do with those girls.

"Husband, let's build a bath like this ourselves."

"Aha?"

Cai Yan narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists in front of his chest, "Why, my husband thinks something is wrong?"

Wei Cheng laughed hahaha, to cover up the little Jiujiu in his heart.

Hao Niang, who was by the side, was already overjoyed. In fact, in her opinion, it is normal for a man to spend his days and nights. Which one of those aristocratic princes is not like this. Wei Cheng is so clean and self-conscious, he is already a good man.

but.

Hao Niang glanced around.

There's only one bathroom in this house?
Isn't that...
