Chapter 69 In-depth Analysis
After a few days of peace and quiet for the second sister-in-law Wang, the construction of Xiao's yard has already progressed to the hut and bathroom.

The huts are divided into men and women, and what is connected is the cesspit under the pigsty. Because the flushing device was too difficult to realize with the limited resources in ancient times, Tang Zangyue gave up this idea and built a squatting toilet.

The ground of the squatting urinal cannot be smashed, and it is paved with stones, which is also convenient for washing and sweeping.However, the water used to flush the latrine is the bath water from the bathroom next door.

Bath water is also particular.

When I bathe every day, I don't need to use soap locusts on my body. I only use soap locusts when I wash my hair once every three days.The saponin water tends to deteriorate after a long period of time. It is fine to sweep it on the same day, but it is not appropriate to store it for flushing the toilet or watering the ground. Not to mention that the saponin water is alkaline, which is not good for plant growth.

So before the bathroom was built, Tang Zangyue made a rule to wash his hair once every three days, and the saponin water used for washing his hair was only used for sweeping.Even Tang Zangyue herself was disgraced.

However, the consequences of bathing every day are: no matter how dry the climate is in the area, the room will still be humid, so Tang Zangyue plans to open a few large windows in the bathroom, so that the family can take turns to ventilate and dissipate heat. Avoid some mold and the like, and it is also convenient to clean.

Because the bathroom is some distance away from the kitchen, Tang Zangyue still thought about how troublesome it would be to transport the water after boiling it.

This problem was solved when Xiao Zhongli proposed to build a small kitchen.Originally, the large area next to the bathroom was used to house some poultry, including baa baa would move to this location, setting aside a small area to set up a small kitchen is not a big deal.

The foundation of the small stove is built high, and the main thing is to boil water, which can be directly poured into the water tank outside the bathroom for storage.The water tank is a custom-made ceramic product from the kiln, half embedded in the wall.Half of it is connected with the small kitchen, and the other half flows into each shower area along the bamboo pipes.Concerned about the excessive water pressure in the process, which would affect the bamboo tubes, Tang Zangyue decided to incline them slightly, which greatly reduced the pressure.

Bamboo pipes are no better than rubber pipes, but I couldn’t find other substitutes for a while, and I wanted to make the family more comfortable in bathing, so I had to find a gold carpenter to customize bamboo pipes. Gold carpenter performs repurchase, replacement.

There is a cover at the outlet of the shower that is screwed on tightly. Only when someone is in place and the cover is unscrewed, can a shower like a rain shower be realized.If the water is not enough, you can also yell "add water" to the person who boils the water in the small stove next door.

One pot of hot water mixed with two pots of cold water is enough for several people to shower.

Each open bathroom is separated by a curtain that is easy to remove and wash. The floor is paved with clean and flat stones, which are built a little higher than the floor outside the bathroom. There are small ditches all around, and the upper and lower levels merge into an opening. The only thing is the trough in the hut next door.After flushing the toilet, just scoop the bath water from the trough.

Even the ladle for scooping the trough is specially customized by a gold carpenter, which is similar to the dung scooping spoon, but the wooden stick is not so long, and the end is slightly curved. Not easy to fall into the bath water.

The pigsty, hut, bathroom and small kitchen form a system of their own. For the convenience of life, the construction progress is a bit slow, and the equipment needs to be a lot of trouble. The town's gold carpenter and blacksmith shop, but it doesn't matter, after all, I don't know how long I will live in Jiuli Village. For the sake of comfort in the future, Xin will work harder.

In order to celebrate the departure of Hunjun's eyeliner, it is impossible for Bai Dong's family to stare at this corner of Jiuli Village every day. Tang Zangyue also found a blacksmith's shop to make a few large iron pots to replace the current clay pots for cooking and cooking. Saved a lot of firewood.

When the days were so busy, Dr. Xue sent his granddaughter Xue Yingxue and his little maid, Ahua, over.

Xue Yingxue looks like her name, her skin is as white as snow, and her glow is bright and jade-like.

Sister Ling was usually very courageous, so she hid behind Tang Zangyue in embarrassment, and looked at Xue Yingxue frequently with curiosity.

Doctor Xue: "Xiaoxue, call me Master."

Xue Yingxue was about to salute, but was stopped by Tang Zangyue, "What you have learned is only one of my skills. You are not my real closed disciple, so there is no need to make such a grand salute."

Dr. Xue: "That's what I said, but I still have to give the apprentice ceremony."

Xue Yingxue handed over the long and slender brocade box after fulfilling the etiquette that women in this era pay respect to their elders.After Tang Zangyue took it, she took out a jade pendant from her cuff and returned the gift.

The jade pendant can't be regarded as high-quality, but the carving is exquisite and the patterns are lifelike, so Dr. Xue didn't stop his granddaughter from continuing.

After the simple apprentice ceremony was completed, Doctor Xue talked to Tang Zangyue alone.

"Last time, Madam, you entrusted Xue with something. Xue paid attention to it for you, and found out that it was people from the Baidong family who were spreading the word about your superb medical skills."

"Bai Dong's? The owner of the restaurant in the town, Bai Dong's?"

"It's this person." Dr. Xue said tentatively, "Is there something wrong with this old lady?"

Those who don't know the ins and outs know that the Bai Dong's spread is not good for her.

There is only Dr. Xue's pharmacy in the town. She doesn't charge the people's consultation fees and treats the villagers. Who will suffer the most?Of course it was Doctor Xue.

Bai Dong's family exaggerated her medical skills... Although these words are not unreasonable, if it is an ordinary doctor who doesn't expect much from her, I'm afraid they will make her a "huge" enemy.

She has no grievances with Bai Dong's family, why did the other party do the trick?She couldn't think of anything other than interests.

"Thank you, Doctor Xue, for letting me know." Tang Zangyue bowed.

"It's okay, but this Bai Dong's family... old lady should be more careful. There are people behind him in the barracks, and he has an official position. In short, he is not easy to provoke."

Tang Zangyue: "Thank you, Doctor Xue, for letting me know."

After sending Dr. Xue away, Tang Zangyue pondered, it is estimated that the Bai Dong family benefited not only from money, but also from the authority of relatives in the military camp, which led to the present step.He had no enmity with her, but he pressed on every step of the way, first the kimchi and miso business, and then Dr. Xue.

Fortunately, the Bai Dong family didn't know that she knew everything, let alone that she still held the trump card of Yixiantian in her hand. He earns a living with his aunt's cooking skills.

Otherwise, after Dr. Xue failed to set up an enemy for her, there would be no further action.

After all, he underestimated her.

Because Dr. Xue provided good news, Tang Zangyue was especially easy to talk to Xue Yingxue.Unable to stay overnight at home, Xue Yingxue still had to go home in Xue's carriage every night.

During the day, Tang Zangyue only had time to teach in the morning, and helped Aunt Liu or Xiao Zhonglu in the afternoon, and occasionally went shopping in the town.

Teaching one is teaching, and teaching a few is also teaching. When there is no practical scene, Tang Zangyue will talk about some medical knowledge, and talk to some restless little carrot heads and Xue Yingxue at home.

Xue Yingxue has the foundation and can keep up with the progress of teaching Tang Zangyue, but the other little radish heads are confused.

Only Xiao Zhongran surprised her.
