Chapter 102 [The Man Works Outside and the Woman Works Inside]
Although this red medicinal wine does not have much strong taste, the therapeutic effect is quite good. During dinner, Belsinger was able to move his ankle and had a sumptuous dinner. It was also time for a bath, but today Master Belsinger was unable to move, so for the first time he enjoyed the treatment that a noble master should enjoy.
Several young and beautiful maids, under the command of Lina, helped Master Belsinger to the newly renovated bathroom. He enjoyed it well. It was great to be surrounded by beautiful women and serve him in a bath. Of course, Belsinger could not do anything practical with his wife by his side.
But this kind of erotic feeling was really fascinating. He took a comfortable rose petal bath and then returned to the room. He lay on the bed, enjoying the cool breeze and hugging his wife and slowly fell asleep. When he got up the next morning, his ankle had completely subsided. It was a reddish-brown bruise, and the skin still felt very painful when touched.
Although the ankle could be turned freely, walking was out of the question. He could only be supported by others to sit on the sofa in the living room. Enjoying the treatment of black tea and fruit, the idea of going to the fruit forest in the back mountain to supervise the work of the Shudras was immediately rejected by Lina. He twisted his foot and encountered a king cobra. If he went again, he would not know what kind of beast he would encounter. Will Belsinger still be alive?
If he doesn't want to go, he will stay at home. Because a big hole was dug out during the renovation of the center of the castle, a shell-like groove facing the back mountain was built with stones. The breeze from the back mountain can blow through the groove to every room in the castle connected by pipes. That is a local central air conditioner, which is environmentally friendly and cool.
In the hot and humid weather of the rainy season, the entire castle can be ventilated, so Singer Castle will never be moldy and hairy like before. No matter which room in the castle, you will feel the cool breeze blowing on your body, and the living room is no exception, but you can sit on the leather sofa for a whole morning.
In addition to drinking tea and eating fruit, you can't do anything else. In addition, fat people are prone to sleepiness. Just when Belsinger was lying on the sofa, he was confused. Hearing the noise coming from the castle gate, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and then saw those very strong Shudra villagers carrying two large bundles of fruit wood that were sawed neatly into one meter long on bamboo poles and transporting them down the mountain.
They are all fruit wood. After drying, they are used to make barbecue or various delicacies. It will be a very rare and good fuel. Of course, they have to be picked up and dried, and then stored in the woodshed for future use in the kitchen. Belsinger finally stood up from the sofa and stretched his waist, letting Lina help him with his personal manservant who had just given him.
He came to the castle gate little by little and saw Brooke directing the villagers to stack the wood they picked neatly. In the open space at the castle gate, it is now the dry season, the air is cool and the sun is bright, and a piece of wood that is more than ten centimeters thick can be dried and stored in two or three days.
Seeing his master coming, the human mule Brooke came up with a smile like a lackey, nodding and bowing to Belsinger. "120 discarded fruit trees were felled within two days, and they have been divided. This afternoon, all the wood will be transported back and placed in the open space in front of the castle to dry, and then the discarded fruit trees will be cut down. This will not delay time. If these trees are placed on the back mountain, even if there is no rain, they will be soaked in dew and will become moldy and rotten."
Yes, Belsinger smiled and nodded, patted Brooke's shoulder, and said with a smile. "Yes, yes, everyone knows how to arrange the work process, so there will be no delay. Brooke, you did a good job and keep an eye on it. The back mountain is a boring job. In two days, Jamal will plant some new varieties of fruit trees in the back mountain. So those tree roots should be dealt with as soon as possible to avoid delays when planting fruit trees in two days."
Digging tree roots, especially digging living tree roots, does not have large-scale mechanical equipment. It is not a simple job to dig tree roots with human hands and tools. It is tedious and tiring, and the work progress is not great. Wouldn't it be a delay to make preparations in advance and wait for the saplings to come back? Brooke, the human mule, had already thought about it, and nodded with a smile.
"Master, the less powerful ones will carry the wood this afternoon, and the adult villagers will come out and put all the stones that can be moved in a pile. I won't delay anything, don't worry, but shouldn't you give me today's wages? I can pay them in the evening."
Bel Singer waved his hand and said, "Go find Madam Lina. Now all the cash in the house is under the control of Madam Lina. From now on, the lady will be the housekeeper, the man will be in charge of the outside and the woman will be in charge of the inside. I will not interfere in the family affairs in the future. Everything will be subject to Madam Lina."
Brooke, the human mule, knew that this day would come sooner or later, so he didn't talk nonsense with his master. It was useless to talk nonsense, and he wouldn't get any money. He said hello and hurried back to Dingge Castle to find Madam Lina to ask for the wages for the villagers today. It was rare for a husband like Bell Singer to delegate power.
Indians, especially Indian men, have a very serious tendency towards male chauvinism. Not only do they work outside, but all financial affairs at home are decided by men. Women only do this and that under the command of the male head of the family, and have no rights at all. The idea of men working outside and women working inside like Bel Singh is very advanced.
This made Lina feel unprecedented respect from her husband, Belsinger, and she quickly entered the role of the hostess. She managed the house in an orderly manner. Yesterday, because of a foot injury, she couldn't walk around, so Belsinger handed over the last and most important power in the house to his wife Lina.
It was the big bunch of keys hanging around his neck, and in this bunch of keys, there were not only the keys to the warehouse, but also the keys to the underground vault. With this bunch of keys, it was equivalent to mastering all the resources of the entire Singh family.
Master Belsinger personally watched these Shudra villagers work very seriously. The uniform one-meter-long wood was placed neatly, and a 16-year-old young man was left to be responsible for the turning of these woods. Let the sun dry this section, and then dry the other side. If the weather is good, the wood will definitely be dried within a day.
For a whole afternoon, the open space at the door of Singh Castle was always bustling, and the day's work was quickly over. Belsinger had just finished dinner with his wife Lina. The couple was enjoying the cool evening breeze under the vineyard in the center of the castle, lying on a bamboo bed and counting the stars. The couple was talking and laughing happily, but because there were too many mosquitoes, they had to end this romantic night early, supporting each other and preparing to go back to the room to sleep.
As soon as they walked up to the second floor, they didn't expect that the castle door was knocked from outside. The sound was too loud, and there were a lot of people and women crying. It seemed that something big had gone wrong. The couple looked at each other and saw the shock in one eye, then quickly turned back and supported each other and walked downstairs.
