The scenery of the small building in the middle of the lake is indeed very good, and it is surrounded by water on three sides. You can see the lotus in the south and the rocky mountains in the west. It is possible to live here in the summer, not to mention how cool it is. I guess there is even an ice basin at night.
No need to let it go.
Living by the water, mosquitoes are inevitable. Mosquitoes by the water are big and sting badly. But during the construction of this small house in the middle of the lake, a large amount of camphor and boxwood were used, both of which have unique properties.
The aroma and rich oils all have the effect of repelling mosquitoes.
The blackout roller blinds in the corridor are probably made of sun-dried fragrant wood branches and mugwort leaves. When you walk by the curtain, you will hear a faint medicinal fragrance.
Li Maner guessed that these two plants should have been soaked in potion before drying, so the mosquito repellent effect was doubled.
The small house in the middle of the lake is not big, but it is full of delicacy and ingenuity inside and out. Everything in the house is made of precious things, even the eight-pointed sheepskin palace lantern hanging from the eaves is particularly exquisite.
"How do you like this place, young lady?" Aunt Min simply said, "The princess sent people to rearrange everything inside and outside, just to make her feel more comfortable living here."
After all, Li Maner is a young lady from the Hou Mansion, not an ordinary medical girl. In addition, her maternal grandfather, the Ning family, is a very wealthy businessman. It is not an exaggeration to say that she grew up in a jade building in Qiongdui. Wuyou County
The Lord didn't want to neglect her and treated her like a distinguished guest. Li Man'er felt this.
"Your Majesty, you've taken the trouble, it's very good here." Li Man'er was very satisfied with this place, and just treated it as a vacation. It's always good to have a few days of leisure. But I don't know who was poisoned, and he actually made Wuyou County
The Lord spent so much money and put so much thought into it.
"As long as the big girl likes it." After Aunt Min said this, she suddenly shouted outside, "You guys come in."
Outside the door, four girls came together and stood neatly in the small hall, bowing their heads slightly.
"These four girls are assigned by the princess to the girls. If the eldest girl has something to do, just ask them to do it." Aunt Min moved a step aside, and the four girls stepped forward to introduce themselves.
"Slave Goose Yellow."
"Slave Liu Lu."
"Slave Yue Bai."
"Slave Yin Zhu."
The four of them performed the blessing ceremony together and said, "I have met the girl."
Good guy, they are all named after colors, which is easy to remember. They match her purple smoke and green clothes.
"Sisters, there is no need to be polite. I'm just staying for a few days. You can just perform your duties normally."
Several people responded in unison. On the surface, they all seemed to be following the rules, but the details were unknown.
When Aunt Min saw that it was getting late, she said, "Girl, you might as well go and rest for a while. Dinner will be delivered. The princess has important things to do, and I'm afraid she won't be able to get away for a while. It's the same thing if we meet again tomorrow."
"
Li Man'er is a guest, and guests do as they please, so naturally she won't say much.
"Okay, then I'll go see the princess tomorrow."
Aunt Min said with a slight smile on her face: "Girl, go and have a rest. After dinner, you can go for a walk by the lake. The scenery around the small house in the center of the lake is pleasant. I think girl will also like it."
"Okay, aunt, walk slowly."
As soon as Aunt Min left, Li Man'er pushed the four people away from each other and went to the inner room.
Zi Yan and Green Yi were diligent and soon packed up the things they brought from the Marquis' Mansion.
"Girl, are you tired? There is a clean room at the back. How about you wash up and change into the clothes you wear in the room?"
"Okay." Li Maner said in a funny tone: "Okay, now, you two, plus the four outside, all have colored names."
Lu Yi pouted and said: "There is also a person named Liu Lu, which is different from slave."
Zi Yan couldn't help but laugh at her, "What's so strange about matching characters? Didn't you see that the second girl's house is filled with calligraphers?" What about picking the moon and lotus?
"That's different. They're not from the same house. It always feels weird."
"It's only two days, so just bear with it. By the way, you go outside and ask where to get water. We'll wait for the girl to wash up and change clothes."
"Okay!" Green Yi turned around and left the house. Not long after, two women came into the house carrying two large buckets.
"Girl, can this water be sent directly to the clean room? But the master wants to wash up?"
Zi Yan quickly said: "Yes, I'm done."
The two women said they didn't dare, carried water into the clean room, and poured the water into the bathtub.
After carrying it five or six times, it was considered that the water was enough, and the clothes Li Man'er had changed were also collected.
"Thank you for your hard work." Zi Yan handed over two bunches of money and stuffed them into the hands of the mother-in-law respectively: "This is a little thought from my girl. You two can take it to buy some sour plum soup to drink to relieve the heat."
The two women were a little embarrassed to take it, but their eyes were very happy, and they pushed and said: "The girl is an honored guest of the princess, how can we ask for the girl's money."
"This is a reward. My girl will stay for a few days, so as not to cause any trouble to you two, so just keep it."
Seeing that Zi Yan was sincere, the two women happily took the money and thanked her again before leaving.
After leaving the house and finding a place where no one was around, the two of them started whispering, "This girl seems to be quite friendly, and she is not what people say outside."
"People have two skins in their mouths, and their hearts are in their bellies. You can still believe the words spread outside. If you ask me, it's not someone with a broken heart and lungs who deliberately ruins their reputation."
"that is."
The two of them put the money in their arms and happily returned to their homes without mentioning it.
Li Maner took a bath, changed her clothes, put her hair down, and sat in front of the window reading a book. When she had nothing to do, she liked to find some unofficial history about respecting the country and read in story books. During the long nights, she always wanted to do something to pass the time.
"Girl, it's very cold by the window, so be careful." Lu Yi put a piece of clothing on her and muttered: "The weather here and outside are completely different. You just took a shower, so it's not good if you get cold.
"
"Wu Fang." Li Man'er picked up a piece of mung bean cake and put it in his mouth. He asked without raising his head, "What do you think of this place? Is it better than home?"
Luyi smiled and said, "It's just fresh." Where could it be better than home? Besides, for people like them, home is where the master is.
"But to be honest, I think today is a good day. When I think about the ugly look on the face of the second girl when she kicked the iron plate, I feel happy in my heart." Lu Yi thought about that scene and felt relieved, but it was a pity.
Can't see it with my own eyes.
"No matter how hard the second girl tries, Princess Wuyou will not let her come with her. There was such an ugly scene in the princess's mansion last time, how could she have the nerve to want to come with her?" Zi Yan said: "Instead of
I'm a slave, I'm afraid I won't be able to see anyone."
Li Man'er put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "Haven't you heard that saying, no one is invincible, she is probably just trying to win by being thick-skinned." It's a pity that Aunt Min didn't eat her food at all.
set.
The two girls covered their mouths and laughed, "That's a clever thing to say, girl, it really is the truth."
