After the separation, my wardrobe is modern

Chapter 276 County Government’s Mid-Autumn Festival Welfare

When his body flew into the air, Lin Xiaoman screamed in fright. Fortunately, Lu Jin took the pen away in time, otherwise she would have drawn a few lines on his face.

"Madam, it's late at night, it's time to go to bed."

Thinking of what would happen later, Lin Xiaoman's soft hum was almost inaudible to himself, but he heard Lu Jin chuckle, and his breath spread on his face, making people's hearts itch.

The candles were blown out, and Lin Xiaoman felt that the temperature in the room had increased...

When Lin Xiaoman woke up the next day, it was already bright.The half of the bed was already cold, which showed that Lu Jin had gotten up early to attend to business.

Lin Xiaoman rubbed his sore waist and climbed up when he heard Xiuyu's voice outside, "Madam, are you awake? Do you want to wash up?"

Lin Xiaoman said hello, and not long after, Xiuyu came in with a basin of warm water, and quickly brought soap and towels. The water in the dental bowl was also filled, and the toothbrush was dipped in tooth powder.

Lin Xiaoman had just finished washing, and Xiuxiang also brought the food over.

White porridge with duck eggs and a steamed bun with crab roe.

Xiuyu said: "Madam, when the crabs raised in the rice fields are fat, the buns steamed with crab roe and crab meat are even more delicious than those steamed in Beijing."

Lin Xiaoman had forgotten about raising crabs in the rice fields this year. He heard that these steamed buns were steamed with rice field crabs. He took a bite and found that they were indeed delicious, and the taste was somewhat different from those made with sea crabs before.

But thinking of the plump crabs, Lin Xiaoman wanted to go back to the village to have a taste. But in this situation, if she really went back, Lu Jin would have to get angry with her.

Let's ask someone to send some crabs over, which can be used as a Mid-Autumn Festival benefit for the county government.

Thinking of the Mid-Autumn Festival welfare, Lin Xiaoman thought of the bathhouse he wanted to build last night. Since there is nothing wrong, he should put the construction of the bathhouse on the agenda.

It’s just that there were no pools in this era. To build a pool that was higher than the ground, you also had to consider the problem of water leakage. It was better to just dig a big pit and put stone slabs in the pit to make a bath.

Mrs. Qing brought bird's nest porridge to Lin Xiaoman, walked into the room, and changed the sheets she slept on last night.

Seeing the smile she showed towards him, Lin Xiaoman's face turned red, thinking that Mrs. Qing would put that sheet under the box.

After breakfast, Lin Xiaoman took out the drawings he drew last night and asked people to find open space in the south and north behind the county government office to build houses first.

The room needed for the bathhouse is large. Currently, the county government can't find a room of that size, so we might as well build it from scratch.

It took two days to build a large room with two rooms inside and one outside. The outside was used as a dressing room, and a pit more than one meter deep was dug inside. A drainage pipe was built at the bottom of the pit. When bathing, the mouth of the pipe was plugged with wooden plugs. Plug it, remove the cork after washing, and the water will flow out along the pipe.

Although many of this era were not as advanced as those of later generations, the city's drainage system was still pretty good.The water flowing out of the bath will flow into the city's drainage system along the pipes, which saves the trouble of pouring water.

The bottom of the bathtub was paved with fine sand and gravel, and a thick layer of cement that Lin Xiaoman secretly obtained was spread on top. Then stone slabs were laid on top of the cement. As long as the floor of the bathtub was not dug up, you could not see what was paved underneath. .After the cement was dry, I filled it with water for a test. The heated bathroom was filled with steam. Not only could I not feel the chill, it was even too hot to endure.

Wait until winter, and then burn the warm wall on the mezzanine. You don't have to worry about catching a cold when you take a bath here.

On the first day the bathhouse opened, the county government officials and their families all rushed over. The pool, which was originally more than ten meters square, was extremely crowded.

That's it, everyone has a novel smile on their face. In fact, no one expected that working as an errand in the county government would bring such benefits.

When Lin Xiaoman heard that Xiuyu, who had gone to the bathroom to see him, came back to report that there was a thick layer of chapped water floating on the water in the bathtub, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth. He didn't know how long it had been since those people took a bath.

But as long as the county government bathhouse is always open, it shouldn't be so dirty after a while.I have to give instructions that the water in the bathhouse must be changed every day, and the walls and floor of the bathhouse must be painted every day.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was a strong festive atmosphere in the city, but the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet had to be suspended due to the capture of a Li State spy in the Autumn Garden.

The people in the city were cursing the spies and talking about the county government bathhouse, and they all showed envy. Unfortunately, in the entire county, such a bathhouse is only owned by the county government and is not open to the public.

The chrysanthemum appreciation banquet could not be held. Many people heard that the princess's villa held a Mid-Autumn Festival garden party a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they rushed to the villa. Many people even wanted to stay at the villa for a few days, so they brought them with them in the first day or two. I rushed over with my family to find an inn to stay at.

On the first day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, people from the villa sent several carts of fat river crabs. Everyone in the county government gave a bag to take home. Many people ate crabs for the first time. I heard that this thing You have to eat them alive, and they are all steamed before the Mid-Autumn Festival, not to mention they taste really delicious.

If they didn't eat enough, they thought about going to the villa to buy some more. But when they inquired about the price, they found that the kind of crabs they were given cost dozens of yuan each, so they all gave up the idea and thanked the princess and the county at the same time. Madam Ling is so generous that she is willing to pay for such expensive crabs.

Early in the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Hongfei rushed over with his account books to report to Lin Xiaoman the revenue of the villa in the past two days. Lin Xiaoman was surprised at the lack of leisure and entertainment for people in this era. Is Aunt Qi's villa fully equipped?Is it famous enough?But even so, the customer flow during the Chinese New Year is probably not as good as her villa.

Lu Jin was busy until midnight last night and finally finished all the official duties before the Mid-Autumn Festival. He came back to rest in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he saw Lin Xiaoman sitting at the table doing abacus calculations in front of several thick account books.

She didn't put on her shoes and got out of bed. She wanted to pick her up and go back to bed for a while, but she heard Lin Xiaoman say: "Are you okay today? Why don't you go back to the villa after breakfast?"

Lu Jin thought that he had never returned to the villa since they got married. Compared with the county government office, that was his and Xiaoman's home, so he nodded in agreement.

As soon as he nodded, Lin Xiaoman stood up and went to the outhouse to bring in the warm water that had been prepared. He urged him to wash up quickly. After he finished washing, he brought in the late breakfast.

While Lu Jin was having breakfast, he went outside and called Mrs. Qing to bring someone to pack up everything that was to be taken away from the room.

Since I may come to stay at the county government office frequently in the future, I will not bring any daily necessities, tables and chairs, and only bring the wardrobe and some items that I need at any time.

Compared with the dozen or so vehicles when they arrived, only two carriages without the villa mark were used when they returned. The couple could be considered a light vehicle, and they walked on the street without attracting the attention of the people in the city.

Just walking all the way to the city gate, I obviously felt that there were more carriages leaving the city today than usual. Although it was not difficult to move, it was definitely not possible to rush to the villa quickly.
