＊　洗澡大事54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdFDgyxJXB

湘妃竹林擁簇著一座典雅的莊園生長，莊園很大，至少有二十棟平房的面積，磚牆透著淡淡的褐色，卻夾雜著沉穩的暗紫。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYj9rWB1vg
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV59hDM2Mxn
竹然領著我向前，我這才看清楚這棟房子除了牆面以外，屋瓦、窗櫺、大門皆是由竹然口中的湘妃竹製成。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFcoQMIjbQ
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ7k6qSa0z
這是個很奇特又很壯觀的房子。可是，為什麼我會覺得奇特呢？54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGKFcsjZyS
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1IpolsNoC
盯著晦暗卻不突兀的色彩，我愣神地想著。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGoGwXDxYJ
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDrEwy7ntm
「小姐請進屋來。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBuwmNeiRa
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnn2nfKBbL8
竹然的聲音再度打斷我的思緒，尷尬得我趕緊追進屋裡，也忘了剛剛的疑惑究竟是從何而來。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKNKIsHu5J
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzLFDGLdOb
裡頭的擺置得體，六張竹椅，兩張小几，一方桌，左右各有雕花竹窗，透著外頭的蔭紫與光線錯落，既不刺眼，也不會過於陰暗。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OkP4pkTYl
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7nHHIrz0R
「這裡是正廳，左側是廚房，您的廂房在這邊。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vSqOy4p75
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC6O44xZwm
我還在打量著那兩扇極為特別的竹窗，竹然卻已轉身走出正廳。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7sKZOVjNc
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy2lD2kVo7
我隨後跟著走進一到小竹門，小小的台階跨越，裡頭的樣貌與正廳相似，只是桌椅換成一張竹編圓桌與四張竹椅，還多了一幅不知是什麼的竹編物品。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jfRB2yzNP
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKnvtlJa02
「屏風後已備好浴桶及衣物，請試試水溫。」竹然走至那幅怪異的竹編物品旁，看著我笑。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsB5opF1WF
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyJjSbHv6u
我愣神了許久，才恍然明白這怪異的竹編物品原來叫作屏風，尷尬萬分地走到那屏風後，寬大典雅的竹櫃率先映入眼中。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0Sv0iJs1z
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cPI4uOOHQ
竹櫃側倚著一張竹製長榻，榻上放著一個扁圓的竹紮小物以及一條摺得整齊的泛綠白被，被間那焰紅的小疊布料看來特別鮮明突出。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWn4mfnIVj
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJRBy8EjkY
榻邊兩步，有一只寬大的圓桶，倚著屏風，蒸騰的霧氣暈化了一室沉鬱的色彩。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VEKYkPVJD
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTqjUpcWR4
我走近圓桶、應該是浴桶，這只約有我半身高的浴桶旁有兩塊錯落的短小厚竹板，桶裡填了近七分滿的水，水面漂浮著藏青的竹葉。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqyAOZ8SWe
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8FeOdqyQp
想來這應該是讓我沐浴用的，所以竹然才會特地叫我試這個水溫吧。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzJgzFoXy3
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUizGYKAnE6
伸手摸了摸，溫度適中。但是，我要怎麼進去裡面洗呢？54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePJT1RrEer
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM69mUXAtT
看著這怪異的桶子，我又犯難了。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7O9anYQ2p
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfd7bwGmBI
「小姐，您還好嗎？水溫——」竹然的聲音響起，或許是因為我實在是傻愣得太久，竹然的聲音裡聽來有絲疑惑與擔憂。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVIoieGod2
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPpIHHCaqd
「嗯？喔！嗯！很好！」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4f2aqCapz
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLplx5cfTiK
「那麼竹然就先去準備晚膳了。您是在正廳用膳嗎？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lpLnXNJUA
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5CJKve7GU
「嗯！」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6LEDANvp8
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3ehDOleOo
竹門聲響，我還瞪著圓桶愣神。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYITLbIdUs
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj5dkvpHtT
等等，剛剛竹然問了些什麼？54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR7BQ1cbjn
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkicvMmJAT
啊！我應該問問竹然這只桶子到底要我怎麼下去洗啊！我、我怎麼會糊塗得什麼都沒想清楚就回話啊！54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDdnmzETcb
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnafoUmind
現在去找竹然問，我也問不出口了。而且竹然為了我到處忙碌，這種事我怎麼好開口再去麻煩她呀！54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rg8dkyAvC
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVizAi7uIY
我看，我還是先自力救濟吧，有什麼東西可以墊著腳，好讓我踩著上去呢？54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3irgZjrKk
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUV0hiEyl9y
雖然這張床鋪的高度差不多，但是離浴桶還有兩步，除非我跳著或飛著進去了！54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5MbOEYt7K
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1CLc8ffM6
搬不動浴桶，我測了測床鋪與浴桶的距離，深深覺得自己不會飛這件事相當令人傷感。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrszTbIIPo
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo0CkCx0hz
見眼前沒個好墊腳的，我便轉出屏風，打起了那幾張竹椅的主意。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYX4fAq8Vt1
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJcuZdsDxv
還好，量量高度，正好合用。要不，我可真的得「跳」進浴桶裡洗澡了。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL2CtjMxvr
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvIyQjYH32
我喜孜孜地抓起竹椅，貼著桶邊，退去衣服，小心翼翼地踏上浴桶邊緣，浴桶也沒有什麼傾倒或不穩的跡象。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNquiNSbOSi
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQGoH6FWlP
腳指點了點水面，溫暖得舒暢。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUuqgInd0S
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4cod0kzqk
心中一樂，我迅速地將腿晃進浴桶，重心不安，腳一滑——54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX7kHdluWD
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oThEqqWL5
「啊——！」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwRJ2JMIOQ
