Chapter 7: So That's How It Is
It wasn't just the sofa. When Wang took a closer look at the furnishings in the room, he was already somewhat unclear about his current situation, and now he was even more perplexed.
What's going on? First, I inexplicably arrived in the Great Zhou Dynasty, then I got a mysterious space, and inside the space, there was even a small wooden house full of modern furniture.
Modern furniture? Right, Wang Yirou walked into the small house and sat down on a set of flower-patterned handicraft cushions and backrests on a sofa, the soft feeling under her butt reminding her that this was indeed a sofa, just like the one she had in her own little house when she was alive.
In addition to this group of sofas with a strong rural flavor, there is also a milky white coffee table in front, and two pumpkin-shaped cushion stools. And based on her experience, she inferred that these two fabric stools were absolutely handmade, and the craftsmanship was not bad either.
"Huh? This is the living room, what about the other rooms? Do they have similar decorations?"
Wang Yi withdrew his hand that was stroking the armrest, suppressing the inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart, and got up to enter the room on the west side of the living room.
Pushing open the door, yes, it's the kitchen, a rural-style kitchen with a moderate size of about 50-60 square meters. The kitchen is very clean, seemingly without any human presence: an earthen stove attached to white ceramic tiles, on top of which sits a large iron pot, next to which stands a set of wooden cabinets and dish cabinets. Wang Yiru opens the small door of the cabinet, only to find it empty, with no bowls, chopsticks, plates or anything else, let alone grains or vegetables.
Regrettably, Wang Yi closed the cabinet door and turned around in the kitchen, but didn't find any modernized cooking utensils; there were no electric refrigerators, disinfection cabinets, or microwave ovens.
She came out of the kitchen and arrived at a room on the east side of the living room, hum, looking at the layout it should be the bedroom. Compared to the kitchen, this room is much larger, with an area of about 20 square meters. In the empty room, there was a simple wooden bed made of logs, and next to the bed stood a wardrobe in the same color scheme. Wang Yi opened the cabinet door again with the hope of finding something, but unfortunately, there was still nothing inside.
She stood disappointed in the middle of the room, narrowing her eyes to look at everything around her: the room was north-facing and south-facing, with only a hardwood bed board facing east leaning against the eastern wall corner. On the south side was a large window, which occupied almost two-thirds of the entire wall area. At this moment, it was noon, and the bright sunlight poured in unobstructed.
Wait? Wang Yi's gaze stopped on the transparent glass window, somewhat disbelieving his own eyes as he looked up at the big sun outside.
Uh, does this space come with its own sun?
The doubts in Wang Yixin's heart grew heavier and heavier. In the strong sunlight, she felt a little dizzy from being exposed to it.
She closed her eyes for a moment, suppressed the panic in her heart, and continued to examine the furnishings in the room. What's that? Wang Yifan noticed that on the north wall, there was a wooden board with an obvious frame seam. She walked closer and pushed it, and the wooden wall opened up, revealing a cleverly constructed small door.
Standing at the door, Wang Yi took a look and found that it was a separate bathroom inside. The room was not large, only about three or four square meters in size, with a Guifei bathtub placed against the wall in the corner, accompanied by a matching footstool and small wooden basin. On the side of the bathtub hung a wooden hanging blue, which held a small water scoop; on the east side of the room was a two-foot-square window, outside which was the hot spring pool, and at the bottom of the window were placed two white plastic pipes.
Yeah, finally saw modern accessories again. Wang Yi was overjoyed and squatted on the ground to pick up a plastic tube, pulling it hard. Ah, that's right, it's the kind of drain pipe often used in bathrooms in my previous life. Does this small house also have one?
It wasn't just the drainpipe, Wang Yi, who was squatting on the ground, also discovered a small hole about the size of a bowl mouth on the floor at the base of the window. She took the drainpipe and tried to stretch it over, and the hole was just the right size. After inserting the pipe, Wang Yi stood up by the window and saw that the white pipe sticking out of the house was pointing directly at the hot spring.
"Alas, never mind, I'll just take a hot bath first!"
At this time, Wang Yicai suddenly remembered the proper thing, she came in to take a bath, and other things would wait until she had the spirit to think about it. Anyway, this wooden house currently belongs to her, and she has plenty of time to explore it carefully.
Thinking so, Wang Yi also took action, quickly walking a few steps to the courtyard, pulling the plastic tube to the edge of the spring water pool, just right, the length was just right. Next, she fixed the plastic tube with stones at the edge of the water pool, and from Qian Niang's bathtub, she took out the changed clothes and loofah sponge and returned to the bathroom in the small house.
First, she put away the clean clothes, then she pulled the plastic tube to the edge of the bathtub and, using the same principle as changing water in a fish tank, sucked hard on the mouth of the tube twice. The hot spring water slowly flowed into the tube.
"Fortunately, the hot spring water outside is at a relatively high level, otherwise it would be really hard to deal with!"
With the warm spring water, Wang Yi first washed the bathtub, stool and bath brush. Although these things looked new, it was still more reassuring to wash them as they were close-fitting. After washing the bathtub, Wang Yi fixed the pipe on the lower side of the bathtub and let the spring water flow in slowly.
And she hastily took off the dirty clothes on her body, revealing thin and dull skin. To say that this was still the first time she saw her own body after crossing over, Wang Yi frowned and gently touched the ribs on her upper body, the hard bones clearly reminding Wang Yi of how bad her physical condition was.
"Alright, since this body belongs to me from now on, I have the responsibility and obligation to take good care of it. Wang Qifang, although I despise your weakness, you gave me a vessel for rebirth, so I still want to thank you. Don't worry, from today on, I, Wang Yi, will live well in your place!"
Throw away the dirty clothes in her hands, Wang Yi, oh no, from today on she should be called Wang Qifang, with an extremely firm pace stepped onto the stool and sat into the bathtub to take a bath!
"Ah, so comfortable!" Wang Qifang picked up a water scoop from the side of the hanging blue cloth, scooped up a scoop of water and poured it onto her sticky long hair. The warm water flow and the warm air made her sigh comfortably. "Huh, what's this?"
Just as she was humming comfortably, a tingling sensation spread over her body. She opened her eyes and couldn't help but curve up the corners of her mouth. With the water scoop in hand, she scooped out those small things swimming in the bathtub, and in the slightly reddish spring water, several agile little silver fish were swimming happily.
"Hehe, did I also take you guys away?"
Wang Qifang played with them for a while, and then lay down in the bathtub again. However, another surprising scene occurred, as the small silver fish swam around in the bathtub, the original spring water that had been stained with blood and was somewhat murky, was being filtered and clarified bit by bit. When all the bloodstains on her body were washed away, the small silver fish swam even more happily, and the bloody water in the bathtub slowly returned to its clear original state.
Not only that, but when Wang Qifang was washing her bath earlier, she was still complaining. She had forgotten to ask for bathing supplies like body wash when she asked Qiangniang for the bathtub. But the appearance of the small silver fish made her realize that there were such magical things in the world. Those little silver fish not only swam in the water but also attached themselves to Wang Yi's body, just like the "kissing fish" provided by the hot spring pool in her previous life. As they fluttered on his skin, Wang Qifang felt that the dirt, dead skin, and scabs on her body were being slowly devoured.
"Hey, I won't need to use shower gel anymore?" Wang Qifang was being stroked by Xiaoyin fish and felt extremely comfortable all over her body, with her eyes narrowed in enjoyment of the service from the little animals.
Half an hour later, when Wang Qifang came out of the bathtub, she felt refreshed and rejuvenated. Her pale face and lips, which had lost their natural color due to blood loss, now regained their original bright complexion after soaking in the warm spring bath.
Wang Qifang put on clean clothes and used a cotton towel to wipe her long hair, moving slowly to carefully observe the entire small house.
The kitchen, bedroom and living room, she turned around again. Through the living room to the backyard, she found that there was a wooden house beside an unfamiliar tree, which seemed to be a warehouse-like room.
Upon entering the backyard and pushing open the door, Wang Qifang saw the things piled up inside the house, her face first flashing with astonishment, excitement, and finally sighing softly:
"Ah, I see! I was just wondering why this house looks so familiar!"
Hehe, making up for yesterday, a certain Sa woke up early to code, isn't it worth encouraging? There's still another update tonight, hoo-ray, robbing all relatives of their recommendation votes!
