The days when I opened a tavern in Zongwu

Chapter 16 Have you ever washed clothes for others?
  The next day, early morning.

The wind and snow that had been blowing all day and night finally stopped, but the sky was still not clear.

There was so much snow all over the courtyard that it covered the steps beside the courtyard.

Even though it was already past midnight, I could still clearly feel the chill entering my body along my nose and mouth while breathing, which was refreshing.

But this cold weather made the fragrance of wintersweet in Li Changqing's courtyard even stronger.

When you breathe, you can obviously feel the coolness entering your body, but the sweet smell still makes you want to take a few more greedy breaths.

Just like when you meet a beauty who is proficient in oral skills and has a eloquent tongue, all men know her faults, but they still can't help but be immersed in her.

In the courtyard, Li Changqing was standing by the stove next to the door.

Holding a cup of tea in your hand, blowing it gently and taking a sip leaves the fragrance lingering on your lips and teeth.

At the edge of the courtyard, Huang Rong sat beside the well, placing her hands in a wooden basin filled with warm water.

While putting Li Changqing's clothes on the washboard and rubbing them back and forth, he stared at the leisurely and contented Li Changqing at the door of the main room with resentment and indignation.

Who does Huang Rong think she is?

Ever since you were a child, have you ever washed clothes for others?

And still a man.

Seeing that she was busy here and Li Changqing was still at ease and at ease, Huang Rong unconsciously increased the force of rubbing the clothes in her hands, as if what she was rubbing was not the clothes but Li Changqing's handsome face.

On the other hand, Li Changqing looked as usual when faced with Huang Rong's resentment.

People often only have two situations when facing something.

The first time and the countless times that followed.

As time passes and you do more, you will naturally get used to it and do better.

Since he wanted to keep Huang Rong and become one of his own, things like today were unavoidable.

After the clothes belonging to Li Changqing and Huang Rong were almost rubbed in the tub, Huang Rong stood up and prepared to fetch water from the well to wash the clothes.

But just when Huang Rong stood up, Li Changqing's voice sounded softly.

"Don't you think your hands will get cold if you use this cold water in the middle of winter?"

Hearing Li Changqing's voice, Huang Rong said angrily: "What else? If we don't use the well water, why don't we go to the kitchen to heat hot water? How long will it take to go back and forth?"

Li Changqing pointed in the direction of the backyard and said, "It seems that you forgot that there is a hot spring with the right water temperature behind it?"

After saying these words, Huang Rong looked at Li Changqing with a blank expression.

"If the hot spring is used to wash clothes, can we also use it for bathing later?"

Li Changqing said lazily: "There is living water in the spring. Specially treated bamboo tubes are buried underneath to drain the excess water into the river outside the city. Even if it is dirty, it will be clean after a while. What impact will it have?"

When the voice fell, Huang Rong suddenly reacted.

"That's right. Have you forgotten about this?"

After muttering in her heart, Huang Rong picked up the wooden basin and walked towards the backyard.

While walking, Li Changqing reminded: "After cleaning with the water in the spring, remember to wash it again with clean water, otherwise the clothes will be thrown away after only a few wears."

Although the temperature of the water in the spring is suitable to avoid being too cold when washing clothes in winter, the water in it is only good for the human body and is not suitable for washing clothes.

If you don't clean it with clean water afterwards, it will cause damage to the clothes.

Facing Li Changqing's request, Huang Rong sounded disgusted: "Hey! There are quite a lot of things to pay attention to, you know!"

Seeing Huang Rong walking toward the backyard full of complaints, Li Changqing didn't show any impatience.

Compared with the well-behaved and dutiful look that Huang Rong put on when she first came to the house yesterday, Li Changqing still liked Huang Rong's smart and casual look.        After all, at home, it is more lively and joyful than lifeless.

For a moment, Li Changqing couldn't help but look forward to the arrival of the second maid.

There's not much that two people can do, but if there are three people, they can actually fight Landlord.

However, just when Li Changqing started to think about the future, the system prompt message suddenly popped up in front of Li Changqing.

[Ding, the check-in time has been updated, and a black iron treasure chest will be automatically obtained. Please check and open it by yourself. 】

Looking at the system prompt information in front of him, Li Changqing immediately put his attention into the system backpack.

When he noticed the extra treasure box in the system backpack, Li Changqing made a thought and chose to open it.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting a hundred taels of grained silver. 】

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a special item, White Clouds Soil*1]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for acquiring the low-grade Huang-level martial arts - "Sword Drawing Technique". 】

[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting the deputy job upgrade card*1. 】

[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting the medicine, Changbai Mountain Ginseng (1 years old)*. 】

[The reward has been automatically stored in the system backpack, please check and withdraw it by the host. 】

Facing the system prompts that popped up one after another, Li Changqing quickly focused on checking the system backpack.

According to the systematic introduction, Baiyunxi soil is a special medicinal soil.

If it is used to grow ordinary flowers and plants, it can ensure that the plants remain unbroken all year round. If it is used to grow medicines, it can shorten the growth cycle of medicines.

The deputy job upgrade card can be used to upgrade the level of the deputy job.

"Good luck!"

Generally speaking, the most that can be seen in a black iron-level treasure chest is a few dozen years of this kind of medicine.

And in this black iron treasure chest, there are not only deputy job upgrade cards, but also special things like Baiyunxi soil.

It can be said that Li Changqing is very lucky today.

After confirming the effects of the things found in the treasure chest, Li Changqing thought silently in his heart.

"System, use the deputy upgrade card."

As soon as the voice in my heart fell, the feedback information from the system popped up.

[Please host choose the person to use the secondary job upgrade card]

Then, the two choices of "medical skills" and "poison skills" popped up in front of Li Changqing.

After Li Changqing determined that "medical skills" were the target of the deputy upgrade card, a stream of majestic information appeared in Li Changqing's mind again like a tide and flooded into the sea of ​​​​consciousness.

With yesterday's experience, Li Changqing concentrated on digesting the extra content in his mind as quickly as possible.

At the same time, waves of enlightenment continued to grow in Li Changqing's heart.

It feels like when you were doing math problems when you were a student and you came across a problem and thought about it for a long time and suddenly figured it out.

With the absorption of these medical knowledge and concepts, Li Changqing's medical skills continued to improve at a terrifying speed.

Half a quarter of an hour later, as all the new information in Li Changqing's mind was absorbed and integrated, the system prompt information also appeared.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for improving his medical skills to the master level]

[Ding, congratulations on the host’s poison skill being upgraded to master level]
