Chapter 6 Little Maid
The girl blushed and fell down her clothes. She secretly looked at Yang Tashan, immediately lowered her head, turned around and walked to the riverside, and looked around.
Yang Tashan said, "Don't worry, I'll help you see the wind."
The girl turned her head and looked at Yang Tashan. She was embarrassed to take off her clothes in front of him. She looked at the river water. Seeing that the river water was flowing quietly and had an idea in her heart. She squatted down and gently placed the clean dress on the grass by the river. She did not take off her clothes. She went straight into the river until the river water flooded her shoulders. Then she stopped. She turned her back to Yang Tashan, slowly untied her ragged dress, letting the river water wash away, and began to rub and clean her body with a blush.
Yang Tashan sat under a willow tree on the shore. Looking at her snow-white neck after washing it, she couldn't help but feel moved: Although this girl is thin, her skin is really good, as if she is as frost as snow.
After the girl washed it, she remembered that she had only thought of going down the river with clothes, but she didn't expect how to go up the river to wear clothes. It was so embarrassing to be naked like this. Although she had made up her mind that if Yang Tashan wanted her to be in the body, she would not hesitate to repay him for his great kindness, but she was still shy to let her walk in front of him naked in broad daylight.
Yang Tashan had already seen it, smiled, stood up, walked to a high place and looked around, but didn't see anyone, and said, "Miss, it's so hot this day. I just got sweaty. I'll take a shower at the bottom. Just put on my clothes and call me. OK?"
The girl looked at him gratefully and nodded.
Yang Trashan strode around the river beside the river beside, and he couldn't see the girl anymore. Then he took off his clothes, went down into the river, and washed for a while. After a while, he heard the girl shouting on the river beside: "My benefactor~!"
Yang Tashan responded and then went ashore to put on his clothes. After taking a cool breeze, he felt refreshed all over his body. When he walked back to the river bay, he saw that the girl had changed into a light green dress, her long hair was neatly combed, wet and draped on her shoulders, her skin was white, and her eyebrows were curved. Her eyes looked at her gratefully, very fresh and lovely. If she hadn't been too thin, she would have been considered a little beauty.
Seeing that Yang Tashan's hair was also wet, the girl said, "My benefactor, Xing'er will help you comb your hair."
Yang Tashan nodded and sat down on the slope of grass. The girl knelt behind him and took out the wooden comb. She carefully helped Yang Tashan combed her long hair.
Yang Tashan asked: "Your name is Xing'er?"
"Well, my mother said, I was born under an apricot tree on the edge of my head, so I called me Xing'er." Speaking of my mother, Xing'er's eyes turned red. Tears fell on Yang Tashan's shoulders like broken pearls.
Yang Tashan turned his body and said, "Stop crying, your mother is already in peace. If she always feels sad and crying when she sees you, she will not be at ease in the underworld."
"Well, thank you, mercy. Xing'er won't cry anymore." She sobbed, wiped her tears, and continued to comb Yang Tashan's hair.
Yang Tashan smiled and said, "Xing'er, don't call me a kind-hearted place in the future. It sounds awkward."
"Okay, then I'll call you Master. OK?"
"Don't! I'm only seventeen or eighteen years old, I'm not old." Yang Tashan smiled and said, "My surname is Qiu, and my name is Yang Tashan. Just call me Brother Yang."
"No, you buried my mother for me. I am your slave. If you don't want me to call you master, then I will call you master."
"This matter... is not a place... I bury my mother for you, just sympathize with you. I am not a tiled person, and I am a family in the world. How can I afford to support a maid? After we go back to the city for dinner, we will go our separate ways."
Xing'er was shocked, and the wooden comb in her hand stopped and said anxiously: "Young Master, you bought me. Of course, I am your maid. I am willing to eat braised vegetables. I can endure hardships. I have been used to enduring hardships since I was a child. Don't worry, Master, I can support you!"
Yang Tashan turned around, looked at Xing'er, and patted the back of her hand: "Silly girl, I am a coolie, working everywhere for people to make a living. When have you ever seen a coolie on the construction site and bringing a little maid? I can't laugh to death! Besides, it didn't cost much money to help you bury your mother, it's nothing, there is no need to sell yourself to me. It's just settled. We'll go back to the city to have dinner later, and you'll leave!"
Xing'er was anxious and kowtowed repeatedly: "Young Master! If I don't leave, you are kind and kind. Even if I do a cow or a horse, it will be hard to repay you. I can do my job, do laundry and cooking, and I can still help you when you work. Don't worry, I won't drag you down, so let Xing'er follow you, please..."
Yang Tashan helped her up: "Okay, you kowtow to me today and you are eighty. If you are not tired, I will be tired. Don't kowtow in the future, do you hear it?"
Xing'er nodded and said, "Then did you agree?"
Yang Tashan thought for a while: "...Let's go back for dinner first. I'm hungry, okay?"
"Yeah!" Xing'er nodded happily, "Anyway, Xing'er will follow you, and I will serve you all my life!" After that, he continued to comb Yang Tashan's hair.
Yang Tashan smiled bitterly. He had no meals after eating, worked everywhere and brought a little maid. This was the case.
Xing'er combed Yang Tashan's hair. It was hot and her hair was almost dry. She tied a bun for him and still tied it with a square scarf.
After finishing the work, it was almost evening. Yang Tashan carried a hoe and a shovel. The two of them got up and returned to the city, and came to the restaurant just now.
The door was cleaned by the restaurant's shopkeepers. All the windows and doors were wide open and breathable, and the fragrance was lit. The weather was cool in midsummer, and some people were already sitting in the restaurant.
When the fat shopkeeper saw Yang Tashan and the others coming back, he hurriedly came up and said, "Cheer, have you all handled it?"
"Yeah, it's done." Yang Tashan gave the hoe, shovel, hatchet, scissors and gourd ladle to the fat shopkeeper, took Xing'er into the restaurant, sat down at a square table, and Xing'er stood next to him.
He had to remand fifty cents here and said, "Shopkeeper, please put some wine and food according to the fifty cents."
"Okay!" The fat shopkeeper agreed happily and asked the friend to serve the food.
Although these fifty-moneys are not much, this small restaurant is not at all. It is mainly for working-class people, so it still serves three meats, one vegetable and one soup, as well as a small cup of old wine and a plate of fried peanuts. The rice is enough.
Yang Tashan greeted Xing'er to sit down, Xing'er shook her head: "Young Master, how can you be a little maid when you have dinner?"
Yang Tashan grabbed her arm and pulled her to sit on the long bench: "There are no such bad rules. If I ask you to sit down, you will sit. You always stand, I can't eat it."
Xing'er had to sit aside with a red face and tilted her body.
Yang Tashan asked for two small cups. He poured half a cup into a wine glass and brought it to Xing'er: "Give me a respect first."
Honest your mother.”
Xing'er's eyes turned red, and she nodded, stood up and took it, raised her hands, closed her eyes, prayed silently, and then slowly sprinkled on it, wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. She looked at Yang Tashan and forced a smile. Then she poured a glass of wine for the wine glass in front of Yang Tashan and put it down.
Yang Tashan took the wine cup and poured a glass of the small cup in front of Xing'er. Then he raised the wine glass and said, "Come on, Xing'er, we are destined to be together. You are tired today, drink some wine to relieve your fatigue. Cheers!" He raised his neck and squeaked away.
Xing'er looked at the wine in the wine glass, hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes and swallowed it, and suddenly her throat was hot and choked into her trachea in a hurry, causing her to bend over and cough.
Yang Tashan asked with a smile: "Xing'er, can't you drink?"
Xing'er gasped for a while before then blushing: "No... I haven't drunk it before... The young master asked Xing'er to drink it.
Xing'er must drink..." He was holding the half glass of wine and was stopped by Yang Tashan: "This wine is a knife-making tool. It's amazing. You must not be able to drink this glass of wine at the beginning. Just drink it slowly. Sit down and eat first! You must be hungry!"
Xing'er felt relieved and quickly put half a glass of wine on the table, filled a large bowl of rice for Yang Tashan, and also filled a bowl of rice herself. She hadn't eaten white rice for a long time, and buried her head. She could be said to be eating voraciously.
Yang Tashan kept picking food for her with affection: "Eat slowly, be careful to choke!"
Xing'er quickly finished the bowl of rice. Looking at the rice bowl, she wanted to add it but was embarrassed.
Yang Tashan shook his head and smiled, "Xing'er, you eat so much first. Your stomach has just recovered. You can't eat too much, as it will hurt your stomach. After an hour or two, you will eat it. Tomorrow, you can eat it casually. You can eat some food slowly now. OK?"
Xing'er nodded, put down the bowls and chopsticks, and said, "Young Master, why don't you eat?"
Yang Tashan smiled, picked up a glass of wine, drank it dry with a squeak, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth and chewed it, slowly said, "When you drink, you have to drink 70% drunk first, and then eat. If you eat first and then drink, it will be tasteless. Do you understand?"
"Well, Xing'er understands."
"Oh, the most fear of drinking is drinking. Drinking alone is drinking to drown your sorrows. It's not fun. It's better to have a few drinkers, don't have more, just three or four, drink while chatting, drink happily, and then drink a few punches, and do something like a drink. That's what it's good to drink. Unfortunately, you can't drink, so I have to drink it myself." He raised his neck, drank another glass, and put a few fried peanuts into his mouth, chewing it. Then he drank several glasses in a row. Thank you for your hard work, and then he felt relieved.
While serving Yang Tashan, Xing'er was drinking alone and thought about it, and said, "Young Master, Xing'er will drink with you, okay?"
"No, no! If you can't drink, you can't force others to do anything."
"Xing'er can drink a little every day. When no one can drink with you, Xing'er can drink a little with you and make some fun."
"No." Yang Tashan took out his purse from his arms and poured all the copper coins inside on the table. There were only 250 words, divided them into two halves, pushed half of them in front of Xing'er, and said, "Xing'er, you took the money and left now. I still want to drink for a while, so you don't have to accompany me."
Xing'er panicked and said tremblingly: "Young Master, where did you ask me...whether did I go?"
"Go wherever you want!"
