Knowing that they would be staying here for a few days, Ye Zhen asked with a smile, "What would you like to do, cousin?"
Little Fish then moved closer to her, "Sister, would you like to go see the bottom of the sea?"
Ye Zhen thought.
She heard from her father that there were all sorts of interesting creatures in the sea.
She was also curious whether her little cousin would grow a tail after going into the water.
but.
"I've never dived in deep water before, so I don't know if I can do it."
"Don't worry about this older sister."
Little Fish mischievously replied, "I have my own brilliant plan."
She loved to play, but she was the only girl in her family, and all her aunts were married. When her cousin finally came to visit, she was overjoyed and felt that she had finally found a playmate.
I had carefully planned the itinerary for several days.
When Madam Wang and the others heard that they were going to go into the water, they were very excited, but apart from Yin Jiu Niang, none of the others could swim.
Little Fish said mysteriously, "As long as you ladies want to go, Little Fish will guarantee your safe return and make sure it's worthwhile."
The little princess's mother smiled and advised, "It doesn't matter if you can't swim, we have a way. The underwater world is still worth seeing, and my sisters-in-law and I will accompany you."
Madam Wang, who had some reservations, finally gritted her teeth and said, "Go."
When you're out having fun, you need to have an adventurous spirit.
In the end, curiosity triumphed over fear.
After that, Madam Wang's jaw dropped.
Even though Ye Zhen and her apprentice were more outgoing and experienced than ordinary women, they were like country bumpkins visiting the Grand View Garden.
The small boat, enclosed like a house, can take people underwater for six hours without suffocating.
It is said that this was created by Princess Xing'er's mother, who was a mermaid, and her five sons when the Pu Kingdom was in danger. It was originally intended to be used for refuge.
After years of renovations, it's now possible to take people on underwater sightseeing tours.
The seabed is colorful, with all kinds of fish of all sizes and shapes, as well as beautiful corals and other things that are hard to see on land.
What shocked them most was that when the little fish went into the water, its two long legs transformed into a golden fish tail.
In the sea, she could also sing, and her songs attracted a group of mermaids like herself, who danced joyfully in the water.
Mrs. Wang felt that this experience would be enough for her to brag about to her husband for the rest of her life.
Unfortunately, I can only tell Lao Wang; I can't tell anyone else.
Fortunately, Jiu Niang and Yi Huan were with them, so when they are old, they can sit together and reminisce about the wonders of today.
Yin Jiuniang and the others couldn't take it all in and held tightly to the hands of the people around them.
Excited.
After emerging from the seabed, the little fish took them aboard a large ship.
This was the place where the women of the Pu Kingdom's royal family used to spend their leisure time. It was more luxurious than Lou Shisan's place, with more entertainment options and a more feminine atmosphere.
"Let's rest on the boat for a while, wash our faces and moisturize our skin, then watch the show. We should be able to get to the dolphin watching spot around sunset."
The Thirteenth Madam smiled and said, "The dolphins playing in the water at sunset are also worth watching."
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll follow Aunt Thirteen's arrangements."
Then, the women were led to lie on specific beds, where maids cleaned and massaged their faces.
Little Fish, being young, didn't do skincare, so she explained to Ye Zhen, "These are all things that Great-Grandma taught us. Great-Grandma said that while women should support their husbands and raise their children, they should not neglect themselves."
Therefore, this boat was prepared for the women in the family. When the grandmothers and aunts were tired, they could rest on this boat, change their mood, take care of their skin, take a bath, play mahjong, sing songs and listen to operas. Occasionally, they could also go on a long trip.
Previously, my seventh grandfather had mistreated my seventh grandmother, and in a fit of anger, she stayed on the boat for a month, ignoring him. When my great-aunt found out, she punished him severely. After that, the men of the Lou family never dared to disrespect their wives again. My mother said that this boat was the secret base of the Lou family women.
Ye Zhen was not married yet and did not know how fortunate it was for married women to have such a place; she only felt that it was very good.
Madam Wang felt the looseness in her hair and exclaimed, "This is the life a person should live."
No wonder the women in the Lou family are all so harmonious. With this haven of peace, what need do they have for any other schemes?
After the facial treatments, the maid brought some medicinal soup for everyone to soak their feet. Then the curtain was drawn back, and the opera troupe entered.
They were all young and handsome men.
Madam Wang subconsciously looked at Cui Yihuan, her eyes questioning, "Has the Pu Kingdom really become this open?"
If this were in Dayuan, those girls would have been thrown into a pig cage if they dared to look at men like that.
Ye Zhen's expression froze for a moment, then she realized what was happening.
It turned out to be a group of women dressed as men.
The Thirteenth Madam also came out with a smile to explain.
Madam Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it was a woman; otherwise, she would always feel a little sorry for her husband.
But after watching half of the show, he exclaimed, "Men really have it good."
Even though her husband, Lao Wang, never flirts with other women, he occasionally goes out for drinks and entertainment with his colleagues.
These women had their makeup done properly, and their figures and shapes had been altered, making them look like real young men.
After watching this scene, she finally understood why men like to go to brothels.
It's simply a feast for the eyes and a joy to the mind and body.
If the women of Dayuan had the chance to see young men, would they still fight amongst themselves every day in the inner quarters over the old cucumber in their homes?
Realizing what she had thought, Madam Wang blinked guiltily.
Ah, Da Yuan can have a theatrical troupe like this. Why don't we go back and mention it to the Crown Prince?
It might even help maintain harmony within the household!
The Crown Prince has always wanted to reform the powerful and wealthy families, so I wonder if he'll feel jealous.
