Chapter 19: The Popsicle General
After the carriage came, Xuehe Beauty got into the car with a twisted buttocks, Tong Xiaoye combed two small buns to make a maid, and came to wear a gray dress, holding the beauty's cloak and followed.
Bumpy all the way to the destination Qingchen Courtyard, although no one received them, but Xue Hesheng's beauty and moving, soon a fat son invited away, Tong Xiaoye was bored alone, so he walked to the depths of the garden, intending to visit the beauty of this ancient garden.
A few little maids who came with her dressed up beautifully went to find a glamorous encounter, many sons are good at Cinderella, Tong Xiaoye will not have this kind of hope, she is dressed in a coarse cloth dress, walking easily in the garden, there is no more comfort.
The boy in white has a gentle and clean smile, the eyes of the man in blue are evil and charming, and the boy in black has handsome eyebrows and a starry face, but it's a pity, it's a pity, it's not hers.
Walking farther and farther along the path, she was a little tired, and was about to find a big tree to climb up to sleep, when she was suddenly stopped by a rude soldier: "What are you doing here, the general's illness has been committed again, and there is a shortage of manpower, come with me to bring hot water." ”
Tong Xiaoye was startled, and saw that the soldier was followed by a group of arrested coolies, all of whom were full of bitterness, she didn't dare to refuse, so she had to follow the soldier stupidly.
When he came to the kitchen, there were already four or five people queuing up to carry water, Tong Xiaoye followed behind this group of people, and while waiting, he heard the soldiers boiling water complaining: "Wang Erniu, why did you find some children, what kind of water can they stir?" ”
"Brother Li, I can't help it, you don't know the general's side, except for a few of our brothers, there is no reliable person, the child is safe when he is young, it's a big deal to send some water, if you pull a few strong men, in case someone mixes in like last time......"
Brother Li sighed, stopped talking, and handed over the boiled bucket of water to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, who shook his body for a while, and didn't mention it, and finally took a basin of water aggrievedly, and left with the scolding of the soldiers.
Four or five small servants in a row were like this, and the soldier couldn't stop scolding, but his face was helpless.
These useless little guys all came with the boys, and they all won in their cleverness, if they really started to work, how could they have any strength.
When it was Tong Xiaoye's turn, the wooden basin was just running out, and Wang Erniu ran over to urge again, and the soldier named Brother Li yelled viciously: "Little bastard, you must carry this bucket of water away for me, otherwise Lao Tzu will cut off your head!" ”
Tong Xiaoye was startled, seeing that this soldier was full of domineering and fierce eyes, and the muscles on his body were bulging, looking like he was really going to kill, she was in a hurry, and a large bucket of water was easily lifted, and she was also startled.
"Hey! That's a good boy, go and go! ”
Seeing this, Brother Li patted her shoulder excitedly, and his strength was so great that he almost pushed Tong Xiaoye down, at this time Wang Erniu also picked up a load of hot water, drank and scolded, urging Tong Xiaoye to follow the little guys and hurriedly move forward.
After walking a distance of three or four hundred meters, he arrived at a remote house, and there was also a soldier guarding the gate of the yard, and he was picking up the hot water bucket by bucket, Tong Xiaoye just put down the bucket in his hand, and before he had time to take a breath, he was dragged back to the kitchen by Wang Erniu.
After running down three times, all the little guys sighed, and they couldn't even move the wooden basin, Brother Li scolded them, kicked them out one by one, and the little guys ran away as if they had been amnestied, and they got up and flew away.
Only the hard-pressed Tong Xiaoye exposed his strength at the beginning and became the focus of the soldiers, it was too late to pretend to be powerless at this time, he was urged by Wang Erniu all the way, and he didn't even have a rest, the original water lifting became carrying water, Brother Li intimately made a small flat burden for her, and two buckets of water were prepared early each time.
Wanting to be lazy a little, Wang Erniu's big feet kicked up mercilessly.
I picked several times, and the rest of the small guys were all driven clean, and the manpower was really insufficient, and the soldiers who had been in the yard to receive water also ran over to carry water, Tong Xiaoye was driven by Wang Erniu, and walked into the small courtyard for the first time.
"Hurry up, the water is cold again, the general is freezing badly, you turtle sons are slow!"
A soldier scolded while splashing a large bucket of cold water, Wang Erniu did not let Tong Xiaoye enter the house, he first carried two buckets of water in, Tong Xiaoye waited at the door for a while, never saw Wang Erniu come out, she was happy, was about to take the opportunity to slip away, a soldier ran over, saw her and scolded: "Are you a dead person?" Why don't you bring the water into the house? ”
Reluctantly, she carried water into the house, and the scene in the house startled her.
There were two large wooden barrels in the center, and a sturdy man was sitting naked in the barrel, his skin was white, as if he had been frozen, and the hot water was poured into the barrel continuously, and after a while it became cold water, and the man jumped into the other barrel, and so on, and soon the hot water was not enough.
It was all frozen like this, the man didn't say a word, and the movement of jumping out of the barrel was crisp, although he was a little stiff, but he insisted that he didn't need the help of the soldiers, well, that figure was really good.
Tong Xiaoye was surprised, and did not forget to look at this person's figure, but unfortunately there were obscene pants covering his lower body, and he couldn't see anything.
"Hey, why did you get in, get me out!"
Wang Erniu didn't think of Tong Xiaoye until he finished pouring the water, and when he saw her in a daze in the house, he didn't care about scolding her, so he pulled her out of the house and hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
There were not enough people, the hot water quickly ran out again, and they had no time to waste.
followed a group of soldiers panting and ran countless times, Tong Xiaoye couldn't hold on even if he was an iron man, he took a load of water, and his legs shook weakly, Wang Erniu had been following her, seeing that she was just a seven or eight-year-old child, she was silent when they shouted, and her heart softened, so she said: "Later, you will send water, just help change the water in the general's house." ”
Tong Xiaoye couldn't ask for it, so he plucked up his strength to pick up the water into the house and pour it into the big bucket, so he couldn't get up anymore, so he simply sat on the kang.
"I'll go, this kang is really hot!"
It's a good time to step into spring, and it's still burning such a hot kang, and the room is as hot as a steamer, it's not a human being!
Tong Xiaoye complained, jumped from the kang to the floor, and fanned his breath, until he walked into the barrel, a trace of coolness hit, and he felt more comfortable.
"Little girl, are you tired?" A slightly hoarse voice sounded, Tong Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, only to realize that it was the man in the barrel who was talking to him.
He was born extremely good-looking, and his facial features are not much better than those of Ning Yuan, but his skin is very dark and rough, and there is a frost between his eyebrows.
Is it really a great general?
