In the evening, Xu Hao was sketching in the study, he intended to improve the living conditions, because of the lack of relevant experience, this time as a small test, for the future accumulation of experience.

Sanitation is undoubtedly a top priority, and he doesn't want to go to the smelly latrine or ask outsiders to clean his convenient toilet every day. I drew a toilet with a simple shape and structure, and I planned to ask a craftsman to fire it according to the pattern. I drew a shower again, thought about it and changed it to a small bath, it happened that there were a few hot springs near Xu's house, and I could find a way to bring the water over, which had already existed in ancient times, and it should not be difficult.

I was thinking about how to glue the tiles and how to lay the sewer pipes, thinking about whether the pipes made of ceramics could be made in this era, and I felt that it should not be difficult with the skills of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the joints between the pipes had to ask craftsmen to come up with solutions on their behalf.

In order to avoid thermal expansion and contraction, you can wrap it in layers of woven fabric such as straw mats, or simply build a sewer with bricks and stones, well, you have to build a closed septic tank.

When she was scribbling and changing, Qiu Xiang seemed to be unhappy and walked in and said, "The remaining two girls are here." ”

"Is it pretty?" Xu Hao didn't raise his head.

"Handsome, huh!" Qiu Xiang immediately pouted dissatisfiedly.

"Hah! It seems that no mother wants the maid to be too pretty. Xu Hao lowered his head and smiled, "Let them in." ”

Qiu Xiang grimaced at him silently, turned around a little reluctantly and said, "You two come in." ”

The sound of slight footsteps came, Xu Hao continued to draw and ignored it, and it lasted for half an hour, before he put down his brush and slowly raised his head.

But seeing two beautiful girls in the posture of Chinese people, they stood with their hands hanging down slightly, a melon seed face, curved willow eyebrows, autumn watery eyes, cherry mouth, delicate facial features, fair skin, and a delicate figure, with a graceful and soft appearance;

Another silver basin face, with round and jade facial features with clear contours, a pair of red phoenix eyes, thin lips, almost the same height as Xu Hao, and a slender and jade person. It sounds good to have the sassy atmosphere of a northern daughter, and it is hard to say that it has a hard face and a mean appearance.

As he expected, Xu Hao laughed softly, he didn't choose the maid immediately, but asked the housekeeper to lead everyone to the third room, and what impressed him was the two girls in front of him.

The girl who seems to have a gentle temperament is the most uneasy type of housewife, and the person is beautiful, so it is too easy to arouse the beastly nature of men, and she can be seduced to bed casually.

And the other is not easy to manipulate, I am afraid that I will have disputes with other people at every turn, which will disturb the family, not to mention that the good looks of life add to his arrogance, which is easy to cause public anger. Therefore, even if these two are the most outstanding among the maids, it is reasonable that they are sent back.

Xu Hao had a bad taste and said, "I have to give you a name when you were a maid, this is the rule." One is called Musk Moon and the other is called Qingwen. Okay, you're tired all day, Qiuxiang, you take them down to eat and rest. ”

"Young Master Xie gave the name." The soft-faced girl said thank you delicately, didn't even dare to raise her head, and turned around gently after speaking.

The other nodded casually, always looking curiously at the master who was going to serve in the future, and seemed to be quite satisfied with Xu Hao, so he smiled and followed Qiu Xiang.

After a long while, Xu Hao sighed and said to himself: "The most troublesome thing is to get along day and night, it's better to laugh, you and I are willing, after a night of romance, everyone will break up, and there will be no entanglement." ”

That night, the two maids lived in the wing room next to Xu Hao, and there were six more girls in the yard, among which Xiao Shi naturally selected a yellow-haired girl with a mediocre appearance and who seemed to have not yet developed, and was sent to the stove room.

According to the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, they were named Siqin, Guanqi, Shushu, and ink paintings, all of which became second-class girls, and the monthly money was twice as much as that of the four big girls in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

There was nothing to say all night, and early in the morning, Xu Hao woke up from his sleep and saw that Qiu Xiang was already dressed neatly, sleepy-eyed and standing in front of the bed, opening his mouth and yawning from time to time.

On weekdays, the autumn fragrance rises a little later than Xu Hao, this can be regarded as the first time that the eldest girl gets on the sedan chair, Xu Hao laughed secretly in his heart, it seems that this is a sense of crisis, and there will be motivation only if there is competition.

"Ah, you're awake, I'll go fetch water right away."

Qiu Xiang knew that Xu Hao liked to dress herself, so she turned around and walked to the door of the room, and suddenly said outside, "Why did you two get up?" By the way, you are Qingwen, go and go, when the young master is here, you are not allowed to enter the house at will to serve. ”

Xu Hao in the room laughed dumbly and said loudly: "Let them in,"

Qiu Xiang's body stiffened obviously, and she reluctantly gave way to the place, and saw the two girls walking in with a basin of water and a steaming copper kettle.

Xu Hao, who was half-lying on the bed, looked at the two of them very cramped and uneasy, and his movements were a little nervous and couldn't let go, so he first carefully put the basin on the grooming shelf, and the two of them jointly raised the copper kettle to add hot water to it, and the water vapor spread instantly.

"Qiu Xiang, don't be so careful, the four of us will live together in the future, and we need to take care of each other and be considerate of each other."

Xu Hao first finished speaking softly, and then his tone changed to stern, "I don't want to see you fighting secretly because of what you have, remember your duty, otherwise you will go back and forth." You two have to remember that Qiu Xiang has been with me since I was a child, and I trust her the most, and you must take her first. ”

Qiu Xiang heard the young master say that he trusted himself the most, and immediately smiled with relief, and his little dissatisfaction was gone. And the two maids listened attentively and remembered together.

Xu Hao put on his clothes directly, he didn't think that this passage would have any effect, but it was just a show of attitude, let's wait and see in the future.

After getting dressed and getting out of bed, the two maids hurriedly flashed to the side, early morning is the time when a man is the most strong, the weather is hot, Xu Hao glanced at their thin chests by the way, and the unique parts of girls are already thriving.

Xu Hao was accustomed to washing his hair every day, Qiu Xiang scolded the two overwhelmed maids, stepped forward and tested the water temperature with his hands first, frowned, and said, "It's too hot, go get some cold water." ”

"Oh." Musk Yue hurriedly agreed, turned around and ran outside, because of the nervous instep slammed on the threshold, plopping and falling to the ground.

Fortunately, there was a soft carpet on the ground, so it should be fine, and the little girl lying on the ground turned red with shame and got up in a panic.

Qingwen said with concern: "Are you hurt?" Forget you biedong, I'll go. ”

"No, it's fine."

Musk Yue tidied up his shirt with all his hands and feet, lowered his head and ran out again. Seeing this, Xu Hao shouted: "Don't worry, pay attention to your feet, don't fall again." ”

Before the words fell, I heard a bang, Qingwen rushed over with an exclamation, Xu Hao and Qiu Xiang hurriedly followed, and saw Qingwen vigorously helping up the embarrassed Musk Yue, Musk Yue's right hand was broken and bleeding, and some dust was stained on her beautiful face, because she was in pain, anxious and embarrassed, tears fell down.

Xu Hao walked over a few steps and took her hand, Musk Yue instinctively wanted to retract it, but she didn't dare to break free, and her face turned even redder.

Xu Hao took her injured little hand and looked at it carefully, and said, "Don't be nervous, just treat it as if you are in your own home, frizziness will be half the effort." Okay, Qiuxiang, you accompany her to bandage it well, don't touch the water these days. ”

Musk Yue was ashamed and didn't even dare to say words of thanks, so the speechless Qiu Xiang took her other hand and walked towards the residence, Qiu Xiang didn't forget to turn around and give Qingwen a warning look.

Qingwen didn't react to this, walked to the well with her head up, took a wooden scoop, fetched water from the wooden bucket full of well water, and walked back with steady steps.

Xu Hao habitually stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me." “

I don't want Qingwen to shake her head slightly, bite her lip and walk straight into the house, Xu Haoxin said that it was really a stubborn master, smiled and returned to the bedroom together.

Qingwen, as a girl, is of course no stranger to how to serve the master's house to wash her hair, although her movements inevitably appear jerky, and she has to avoid direct physical contact as much as possible, but she still completed the task very satisfactorily.

Like Qiu Xiang before, because she had to serve alone, Qingwen had to run around repeatedly, even though her physical fitness was good, she was tired and panting.

Xu Hao casually handed over the clean towel and said, "Here, wipe the sweat on your face." If you feel uncomfortable, ask the stove to bring hot water to take a shower and change into dry clothes. ”

As if thinking of something, Xu Hao said again: "I'll make you a few sets of new clothes to wear these days, and there will be four seasons of clothes every year later, if you want to take the old clothes to your sisters and sisters, or take some things home, remember to talk to me first, save trouble."

Nothing to do in the morning, rest. After eating at noon, clean up the house first, and then you can take a nap, and if I am not there in the afternoon, the time is at your disposal. Of course, if you want to do things, you can wash clothes, change bed sheets, water flowers and plants, feed the canaries in the cage, and look at the fire in the tea stove. ”

“xiexie。” Qingwen, who was surprised, slowly stretched out her hand to take the silk scarf, stared into Xu Hao's eyes, and nodded vigorously.
