Chapter 8
In November, the north wind is bleak.
Although the season has not entered the coldest twelfth month, after the first snow in winter, the severe coldness swept across the entire imperial capital like a flood.
Even though the sun is shining brightly, it is still cold.
Lou Chunyin sat on the bed, wrapped tightly in a thick quilt, and shouted in pain: "Malui, are you here? Your lady is almost frozen to death!"
Immediately afterwards, I remembered the breathless voice of Malou: "Here you come, I'm here!"
The door was opened, and a gust of cold wind stormed into the house, taking away the already thin warmth. Lou Chunyin shivered and tightened the quilt wrapped around her.
Malachite entered the house with a brazier, placed it on the ground, and touched the sweat on his forehead: "Miss, this is already thirteen basins, and I can't put it down if I put it."
Isn't that true? In the small bedroom, there were more than a dozen braziers on the ground, all sizes, and there was no place to put them down.
Lou Chunyin said in a trembling voice: "It really doesn't work, just find a shelf to stack it."
"Ah, stack it up?" Malachi opened her mouth, looking in disbelief.
Yes, what else can I do if I don’t stack it up?
In this ancient times, without computers, mobile phones, Internet, and no high-tech products, boredom was not the most deadly. The most deadly thing was that there was no heating here. In the middle of winter, only a few braziers were used to keep warm! She didn't know how the ancients spent the winter, but in short, she was about to freeze to death.
"Miss, why don't you do this? I will bring you a few more bedding beds, so that it won't be cold." Malau suggested.
Well, a good idea, I will move a few more bedding to crush her small body.
The original owner was already weak and weak, and after being injured, he was even more afraid of the cold. If he changed his original body, he might be able to endure it.
"Malui, I ask you, is there any floor heating stuff in our era?"
“What warmth?”
“Floor heating.”
"I haven't heard of it."
Since she hasn't heard of it, it should be gone. She has no great ability, does not know how to invent and create, and will not improve and upgrade. Floor heating has actually been available in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is not new. In order to make life easier, she decided to replace the entire Lou family's house with floor heating, so that winter will not be so difficult.
He did it as soon as he said that Lou Chunyin found Mrs. Lou and told her what she thought. Mrs. Lou loved her daughter and would follow her as long as it was not an excessive matter. Naturally, she did not object to the floor heating matter and gave her one thousand taels of silver, which made her ask for it if she was not enough.
One thousand taels of silver! What is the concept?
To convert to Grandpa Mao, it is about ninety to one million.
Mrs. Lou threw one million to herself at will. This was really huge.
I have never seen so much money in my previous life. Perhaps God felt pity for her, and this life made her feel the charm of money.
Repairing floor heating is not a difficult task. It is similar to burning kangs. It is to set the flue of the stove below the ground. When the boiler is burning, the temperature leads to each house along the flue to achieve the effect of increasing room temperature.
After finding the best craftsman and giving the best rewards, most of the houses in the entire courtyard were laid in just two days, leaving only the bedroom of Louyuan, the only son of the Lou family, who had not been renovated.
On this day, Lou Yuan, who followed Mr. Lou, who went out to discuss business with him, came back. As soon as he entered the house, he saw a group of people coming in and out of his dormitory. He didn't know what he was fiddling with. When he saw that when he was standing in front of the door as his commander, he was so angry that he was so angry that he came.
"Lou, Chun, Yin, what do you want to do!"
Last time, I thought the feng shui was not good and almost demolished my house. Not long after, I came to make trouble again. Even though I had a gentle temper like Lou Yuan, I couldn't help but get angry.
Lou Chunyin was standing in front of the house to direct the workers to do things, but she didn't notice Lou Yuan's arrival.
Suddenly, a fierce man appeared in front of her, which scared her.
"You...you are..." She was shocked for a moment, and soon she recognized the other person.
Lou Yuan, the only son of the Lou family, Lou Chunyin's eldest brother.
From Jinkui, she learned that her brother had a very good temper. Few people or things could make him angry, and he was as gentle as jade.
But what you see at this time is very different from the description.
This is not as gentle as jade, it is obviously as irritable as thunder. Malachite didn't fool herself, right?
"Stupid girl, don't go too far!" Lou Yuan roared again, his eyes red with anger.
Before Lou Chunyin could speak, Malachi on the side interjected: "Master, Miss Second is repairing floor heating for your room."
"I don't care about warmth. In short, I don't allow you to touch my room again!" Lou Yuan pointed to the workers in the house: "Let these people get out of my house immediately!"
Lou Chunyin sighed. Although she didn't know why Lou Yuan had such a bad attitude towards him, she thought it was not without a reason.
"Malui, call out all the workers." Lou Chunyin said.
"Yes, Miss."
After the workers left, Lou Chunyin also planned to go back to her room. At this time, Lou Yuan suddenly said behind her: "From childhood to adulthood, I have to follow you in everything, because I am the eldest brother, no matter how wronged I feel, I will give in to you, my sister. However, my lifelong affairs must not be given up! The lady of Mr. Liu's family, I, Lou Yuan, will not marry me, you can go to complain to my father. In short, I will never compromise on this matter even if I die!"
With a "bang", Lou Yuan strode back to the room and threw the door hard.
Looking at the trembling door panel, Lou Chunyin looked confused.
Jinkui muttered: "The eldest young master is really ignorant of the good people. It's a cold weather, so warm after the floor heating is repaired. The lady is wholeheartedly considering him, and he is still a fierce lady." This is the first time that Jinkui felt that his young master was a little unkind.
After a moment of silence, Lou Chunyin returned to normal: "If you don't practice, don't practice. Look at him who is strong and you're probably not afraid of the cold."
Speaking of this, everything is clear.
In order to make his identity a higher level and be compatible with the prince, Mr. Lou tried every means to make an in-law with the soon-to-be- promoted minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and asked Lou Yuan to marry Miss Liu as his wife to enhance the status of the Lou family.
Having sacrificed one Lou Chunyu, is there another Lou Yuan? Besides, she did not plan to marry Bei Ming Qiye. It seems that she has two very important things to do next.
First, we find a way to cancel the marriage between Lou Yuan and Miss Liu, and second, we find a way to cancel the engagement between him and Bei Ming Qiye.
