Chapter 20 Toilet Problems
Jack looked at the two well-dressed older sisters in front of him, and couldn't help revealing a special heat in his heart, which then spread all over his body.
Jack didn't know what it was, but an idea suddenly popped up in his brain, wanting to be an enviable person like the two sisters.
Wearing brocade clothes on his body, he returned home swaggeringly, and became the object of discussion among neighbors.
It's just that the idea that just came up was suddenly washed away by the information from the brain.
His father and mother were serfs, and his whole family were serfs, including him as the private property of the king. It is impossible for him to be respected by people. He will only marry a serf in the future and become a person like his father.
The passion in Jack's eyes came and went quickly, and calm was restored in an instant.
At this time, Lucy looked at Jack in great surprise. In the blink of an eye, the short-legged little guy who had been chasing after her had grown into a ten-year-old boy, and she and her sister had been away from home for five years. up.
Luna and Lucy are very concerned about their parents and younger brothers who haven't seen each other for five years. When I first arrived at Windsor Manor, I hurried to the place where I lived when I was a child before I had time to rest.
It may be that the two sisters have become His Majesty's maids. The butler deliberately eased the labor difficulty of the father and mother, making their faces much rosier than ordinary serfs, and they are more energetic.
Although Howard's intentions are more obvious, she still needs this favor.
Luna looked at her younger brother Jack who just came back. He was covered in mud and covered in black and gray long-sleeved sackcloth, and his brown hair was no exception. The thin arms looked distressing!
However, Jack's appearance of being alive and kicking still reassured Luna a lot.
"Jack, you are already an adult, and you need to help your parents with more work in the future to reduce the burden!"
"En! Sister! I will, I usually take care of little Remy!" Jack nodded fiercely, and showed off his credit like Luna asking for credit!
"Yes, Jack is already a great labor force in our family! He should be rewarded!" Luna took out the candy from Edward in her pocket and put it in Jack's hand.
Jack saw that Luna grabbed a handful of small things wrapped in paper and carefully placed them in your hand.
Although he didn't know what it was, Jack knew it was a good thing when he saw the cherished expression on his sister's face.
"Jack, this is the candy given to me by His Majesty the King. You and Laimi should eat it slowly, and don't eat too much at once. It's not good for your teeth!" Luna babbled again.
Jack quickly unwrapped the wrapper, took out one and put it in the mouth of little Remy who was curled up in Lucy's arms, and then took out another one and put it in his own mouth.
Almost at the same time, the two little guys narrowed their eyes, parted their peeling lips, and became happy together.
The mother Gina next to her saw that Luna took out the small thing wrapped in beautiful leather paper, she knew it must be a valuable item, especially when she heard that it was a gift from the king to the Luna sisters, her fragile heart couldn't help but quicken.
"Luna, this is a gift from His Majesty the King. It will be fine if you give it to Jack!" Luna saw her mother's weathered face full of worry, and her father beside her also had a look of worry. A look of approval.
"It's okay mother, His Majesty the King has a very good temper, so I won't blame you for such a trivial matter!" Lucy, who was focused on teasing little Remy, couldn't help but rush to reply.
Hearing Lucy's words, the wrinkled strong man and the weathered woman revealed a slight brilliance!
"Father, His Majesty the King came here this time because there is a big event to be done. You tell the uncles and aunts in the whole manor to do things seriously!"
"Don't worry, Luna! Now I have been appointed as the supervisor by the butler, and everyone will listen to me!" Luna's father, Old Jack, smirked at the side, very satisfied with this position.
The conversation is divided into two ends. On one side, Luna’s family is happily reunited, while on the other side, Edward’s brainwashing of Butler Howard has initially achieved results.
After Edward's continuous explanations and the induction of interests, Howard has promised to give the green light to Edward's experiment, and will work hard to fulfill Edward's needs.
Of course, the most important thing is that Edward has played a trump card, promising to give Howard fifty acres of land after the experiment is successful, and he can become the Minister of Agriculture in the future.
Sure enough, the old ancestor's words are correct. In the affairs of the world, the prosperity of the world is for profit, and the world's hustle and bustle is for profit.
Even Edward, as a king, couldn't make Howard, a local snake, bow his head. But as soon as he revealed the real interests of land and the temptation of the minister of agriculture, one of the best official positions in the future, the rigorous Howard immediately knelt down.
Edward knew that he had no majesty in the heart of the housekeeper. At present, only profit can make him seriously work for himself. But the current feudal rules can only make him obey and cannot exert his subjective initiative. Edward watched the work of the serfs for a while. The rye in the wheat field absorbs a little more nutrition.
Edward watched for a while, finished talking with Howard, and was led back to the manor villa by the butler. There is nothing special about this villa, except that the toilet is very large.
This villa was built during the period of Henry VIII, and in almost all the manors and territories, Henry VIII took the trouble to spend a lot of money to build villas and castles.
Why is this? This mainly starts with the construction of castles since the Middle Ages.
The period at that time was similar to the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods in China. The countries and lords in various places were relatively small in size and small in population, so castles with European characteristics were built.
It sacrifices space in exchange for the defense it needs, so it has excellent defense capabilities. At that time, because the various nobles often fought, the population dropped sharply, so the castle at that time was enough to accommodate the people living in the castle.
Since the unification of the Tudor dynasty in England, most areas have ushered in a rare period of peace. As the saying goes, there is nothing to do but sleep after eating. This sleep is so bad that the population of England has almost doubled in less than fifty years.
For example, London at that time had only 30,000 people in 1500, but by 1550, 100,000 people had emerged in the entire city.
The huge population is hoarding in London, leading to blockage of sewers and overcrowding of housing. As a result, the citizens of London almost lived in a circle of excrement and urine, and the people at that time had no quality to speak of. If you were not careful walking on the street, you would be injured by the excrement falling from the sky.
You can understand Henry VIII’s repair of villas and castles. He is giving the entire royal court a place to excrete, so as to save the palace’s toilet from being exploded.
