Chapter 5 Bath One

"Well, thank you dad, dad, you drink slowly, is it hot?" Pearl asked the old man with concern. "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that dad was too careless." The old man said quickly.

After confirming that the old man was fine, he had to stand up and go into the house to pack up his things. Suddenly, he remembered something and said tentatively: "Dad, are you going to the city today? Then we... can I go to the city with you to have a look?"

"Don't go this time. There are chaos outside. Marshal Liu led his troops to the north to resist the Tartars. He heard that he could not resist anymore. The troops were retreating step by step. This is the autumn harvest season. The Tartars also valued the autumn harvest. They wanted to grab enough before the winter. I don't know if the army ahead can withstand it. You are still wearing a shroud. How can you go out and stay at home." The old man said, his face very melancholy, and he hurriedly finished the rest of the meal and quickly cleaned up the table.

After hearing this, Pearl did not continue to ask. You need to be more cautious when going out in the future. Not to mention that you have such a terrifying appearance, even if you usually go out, you must be careful. Pearl immediately went to the inner room. Except for wearing it so that you can't take it off, you can pack the remaining clothes together and take it out for the old man.

"After I go out, you should stay at home. Don't open the door easily when outsiders come. I will try to come back early and will definitely come back before dark." The old man told Pearl and told him that he would not do anything else. The daughter he picked up was so beautiful, so it would be better not to show up in public. The old man went out with his things.

Pearl cleaned up the outer room and sat in the inner room. She sat in the room for a while and felt her head itchy. She reached out and grabbed it, and pulled it to her scalp. When washing her face, she saw it in the water tank. Her hair was messy, like a big bird's nest, pressing on her head. Pearl groped and slowly removed the things on her head, and pulled her scalp from time to time.

After removing it, Pearl found that it was a pile of gold ornaments, five-tailed golden hairpins with pearls, several thick gold hairpins, sapphire earrings, and more than a dozen gold, silver and jade bracelets on their wrists. Pearl stared at these things for a long time, then casually found a piece of cloth and wrapped it aside.

Pearl sat down and was stunned for a while, then smelled the stinky smell on her body. She had never taken a bath after coming back from the grave. On the one hand, her breasts still leaked some liquid from time to time. According to the rich physiological and hygienic knowledge in her previous life, Pearl was 90% sure that this was milk. It was so sad that although she was a rich second generation, she had a strict family tutoring and was clean and caring for herself. Before traveling through time, she was still a big yellow flower girl. She was so sad that she had no time to travel through time and became a married person. She was still a married person who was breastfeeding. Thinking about it, Pearl felt depressed.

Today, the old man is not at home, so he is very convenient for himself. Hurry up and take a shower and clean himself. Pearl is busy transporting half a tank of water into the pot, carrying the firewood to boil water for a bath. Hua Zhenzhu in his previous life has never done anything with firewood to boil water even with an electric water heater. Anyway, there is hot water in the bathroom for 24 hours. Whenever he wants to take a shower, just twist the valve.

You can imagine how to boil water today. You don’t even know how to light the fire. After walking around the main hall countless times, you didn’t find that it was a fire-driven tool. What should I do? Just as the pearls were spinning around, my neighbor Aunt Qi came and looked at the pearls spinning around and seemed to be looking for something.

"What is my eldest niece looking for?" asked Aunt Qi.

"I'm looking for something to use to ignite the fire, I don't know... I don't know how to ignite the firewood." Pearl said embarrassedly.

"It's really everyone's coming out. Look, isn't there a sickle hanging on the stove?" Aunt Qi said angrily. Pearl looked up and saw two stones hanging on the wall of the stove. This is the thing that causes fire? Pearl took the sickle down and looked left and right and didn't know how to cause fire.

"I don't know how to use my eldest niece. I'll take it over and I'll light it for you." Aunt Qi took the scythe handed over by the pearl, squatted beside the stove, attached the hay beside it, and rubbed it hard for a few times. The pile of hay slowly smoked, and a small flame came out in a while. Only then did Aunt Qi carefully move the grass into the stove and pressed it on it with dry branches. The fire became bigger and bigger, and the fire was generated.

In modern times, I am the chairman, managing thousands of people under my command, dozens of branches of all sizes across the country. When I came to the ancient times, I was a humble man. I don’t know if the old man picked up his own daughter and became a burden. Pearl thought with great assassination.

"Big niece, how did you become the eldest brother's daughter? The eldest brother is also a kind person. After the eldest sister-in-law went there, because she was afraid of a woman who would marry her, Bo took over her daughter, so she never looked for her again. Ling'er was also a poor life. She let down her father's painstaking efforts. She was about to grow up and could recruit a son-in-law for her brother. In the future, the eldest brother would have a long time to take care of her. Unexpectedly, she had another inexplicable fever. She kicked her legs and left her father alone!" Aunt Qi was burning water for Pearl while nagging the old man's past sadly.

Pearl listened silently, staring at the beating flames in the stove in a daze, thinking whether she was dead, a vegetable, or disappeared without a trace. Her parents loved her even more than Old Man Wang, and she didn't know if her parents could bear the pain of losing her daughter or whether she could survive the grief. Thinking of this, Pearl's tears came out of her eyes again, flowing down her cheeks, and dripping onto the ground drop by drop.

Aunt Qi said to herself, and when she turned around, she found that Pearl was crying again. This little lady was really made by Shui'er. She cried when she said that she could cry. The tears came so quickly. It made people feel pain from the bottom of her heart. She was not a man, but if she was a man, she would be fascinated by this glance.

Aunt Qi couldn't help but worry, "I saw that I had said this a few nonsense and made you cry. Stop crying. You just need to respect your elder brother in the future. When you meet two of you miserable people, you will be happy to have the hardships. Good days are still coming. Don't cry all day long, it's unlucky! Look at the water is boiling."

"Aunt Qi, you're here just in time. I want to take a shower. There is no one at home. Aunt Qi will watch the door for me." Pearl woke up and wiped her tears, saying embarrassedly.

"See what you said, just go and wash, I'll show you some." Aunt Qi said enthusiastically.
