The white container that emitted a gem-like l.u.s.ter was actually a bathtub for her to bathe in.
n.o.ble Consort Ling was surprised. She turned around and saw an abnormally clear mirror stuck to the wall of the sink.
It was so clear that even the pores on her face could be seen.
This was probably the first time in many years that she had seen her face so clearly.
It was too surprising.
The mirror could actually be so clear.
With n.o.ble Consort Ling’s shocked expression, Qiu Si finally realized that she needed to take the initiative to introduce the use of the bathroom.
She said while touching the tap on the sink, “This is the sink. As long as you turn the tap, water will automatically come out.”
With that, she turned on one of the taps. The water flowed into the sink and out through the water pipes.
n.o.ble Consort Ling was shocked by the sudden appearance of water and couldn’t help but take a few steps back. She curiously reached out and touched the water flow. She said in surprise, “How does this water come to the second floor?”
Qiu Si said, “It’s through the pipes.” She did not know the rest.
n.o.ble Consort Ling couldn’t help but say, “The design is really ingenious. It’s indeed much more convenient to use water. However, how can one bathe in cold water?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Si turned on the faucet with a red logo at the side. “This faucet is connected to the hot water in the boiler room. As long as you turn on this faucet, the hot water will be transported up through the pipe. As it can’t automatically adjust the temperature, if Madam wants to use hot water, you can ask me to mix it with water at any time. If I’m not around, and Madam really wants to use hot water, but it’s not convenient to call others, you can use a wooden ladle to adjust the water temperature.”
Being able to produce cold water was already very surprising to n.o.ble Consort Ling.
She did not expect it to produce hot water!
n.o.ble Consort Ling couldn’t help but exclaim at the craftsman’s ingenious design again.
Qiu Si said, “Madam, do you want to take a shower and change your clothes now? Hl prepare water for you now.”
n.o.ble Consort Ling did want to take a shower. “Okay.”
In the cubicle beside the bathtub, there was an even stranger object. “What is this?”
Qiu Si walked over to take a look. “This is a toilet bowl. It’s used for toilet business.” She pointed at the paper trough beside her and said, “There’s toilet paper and sanitary pads inside.”
n.o.ble Consort Ling came to a realization.
She had already used the toilet paper on the way. Before she could ask what the sanitary pads were, Qiu Si pushed down the handle on the back of the toilet bowl. The toilet bowl actually automatically produced water.
Qiu Si said, “After using the toilet, push this down and the filth can be washed away through the pipe.”
n.o.ble Consort Ling was extremely surprised. “How magical!”
It was even more magical than the first time she had seen a bicycle on the road.
n.o.ble Consort Ling wanted to know the use of the sanitary pad even more. “What’s the use of this?”
Qiu Si picked up a sanitary pad and unfolded it. “A sanitary pad can replace a period band.”
“Madam, wait a moment.”
She checked the temperature of the water in the bathtub, went to the outer room, took out the clothes, and came to n.o.ble Consort Ling.
n.o.ble Consort Ling looked at the small piece of cloth in her hand and was a little puzzled.
Qiu Si said seriously, “To use sanitary pads, Madam needs to wear undergarments.”
She actually had to wear such a small piece of fabric.
n.o.ble Consort Ling’s snow-white face instantly turned red.
Qiu Si unfolded the sanitary pad and demonstrated.
Indeed, in these underwear, it would be much cleaner and more comfortable to use sanitary pads.
She thought that she would only wear it when her period came, but Qiu Si suddenly said, “Wearing underwear can effectively prevent female illnesses. There are all kinds of styles here. Madam, you can choose.”
When n.o.ble Consort Ling heard this, her ears were about to bleed. She chose the simplest underwear under Qiu Si’s waiting gaze.
She finished choosing her underwear with difficulty. Qiu Si brought her a few more sets of pajamas.
There was nothing wrong with the pajamas. n.o.ble Consort Ling heaved a sigh of relief. She could finally bathe in peace.
The bathtub was neither big nor small, and it was quite comfortable to lie in.
Qiu Si took out all kinds of toiletries for n.o.ble Consort Ling to choose from. There were camellia, orchid, lemon, honeysuckle, and milk scented ones.
n.o.ble Consort Ling chose the orchid scented one. Qiu Si poured it into the water and reached out to stir it. Immediately, white bubbles appeared.
Qiu Si asked again, “Does Madam want peach blossoms, mint, jasmine, sea salt, or aloe scented shampoo?”
There were actually so many options to shower and wash her hair.
n.o.ble Consort Ling had never seen the sea before. She smiled and said, “Then let’s have sea salt.”
Qiu Si squeezed some shampoo into her palm and ma.s.saged n.o.ble Consort Ling’s scalp.
Without any worries, n.o.ble Consort Ling almost fell asleep.
Qiu Si reminded her that the water temperature was about to turn cold before n.o.ble Consort Ling got up from the bathtub.
After coming out of the bathroom, n.o.ble Consort Ling felt unprecedentedly comfortable.
She lay on the soft bed. Qiu Si glanced at the sky and suddenly lit all the electric lights in the room.
n.o.ble Consort Ling couldn’t help but ask again, “What is this?”
As if knowing she would be surprised, Qiu Si handed over a small table lamp. “This is a lamp lit with electricity.”
Only then did n.o.ble Consort Ling realize that there were two similar ones in the bathroom just now. However, unlike this, this one could be moved, but the two were hanging on the wall.
n.o.ble Consort Ling looked up and down curiously and was delighted. “Does the southern frontier use this?”
Qiu Si said truthfully, “It hasn’t been completely popularized, but it will be soon.”
Such a magical thing could actually be popularized to thousands of families.
It completely shattered n.o.ble Consort Ling’s understanding of an uncivilized place.
If the southern frontier was still not civilized, there would be no place that was civilized.
It was really impressive that Bai Wutong could become the Great Empress of the Southern frontier.
It was no wonder that her son, who did not get close to women, had changed a lot because of her.
n.o.ble Consort Ling looked at the courtyard. Several electric lights that were as dazzling as pearls were quietly lit. She sighed softly. “This place is really nice.”
Bai Wutong knew that n.o.ble Consort Ling must be very good-looking. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given birth to such a handsome son. However, the moment she saw n.o.ble Consort Ling, it still exceeded her imagination.
Bai Wutong stared at Chu Tianbao for a closer look and suddenly smiled. “Apart from your skin being a little darker, you’re quite similar to mother.”
The word “mother” sent an electric current into Chu Tianbao’s chest.
Chu Tianbao hugged her and placed his thin lips close to her earlobe. He slowly came over. “Our mother likes you very much. The banner is very beautiful.”
Bai Wutong turned to look at him with a smile. “Uh-huh, I think so too.”
“You can make me one next time,” he requested childishly.
“Write what?” Bai Wutong smiled charmingly.
“Just write, ‘Welcome home, husband’.”
Bai Wutong’s smile deepened. “You’re getting more and more cheesy!”
Chu Tianbao grabbed the back of her head and kissed her lightly, looking a little silly. “Don’t you like it?”
“I won’t allow you to not like it!”
Bai Wutong couldn’t help but laugh loudly. In the next second, Chu Tianbao picked her up by the waist and pressed her against the soft blanket, severely punishing her..
