Chapter 34: By the Creek
I didn't expect to wash his long hair so hard, his waist was about to bend, and he hadn't washed it yet, so he had to find a stool to sit down and wash it again.
I wiped my hair half-dry with a washcloth, scooped hot water into a large wooden bucket, mixed it with cold water, and then took off my clothes and set it aside. Climb into the big wooden barrel and pull your long hair outside the wooden barrel to prevent it from touching the water, and then you can soak comfortably in the bath.
After soaking for more than half an hour, the water was warm, and then I got up, my hair was almost dry, and I put on my jacket. Together with the nest, he carried the little squirrel up the stairs and put it next to his pillow, and the little squirrel slept soundly. He just lay on the bed and stretched out, feeling very comfortable. added a new quilt and took a hot bath, so he didn't feel cold, and Zuo Shaoyang slept soundly this night.
Early the next morning, Zuo Shaoyang's nose was itchy, he sneezed with his eyes closed, and when he woke up, he saw that the little squirrel's long hairy tail was drooping on his face, and the little guy was woken up by his sneezing, staring at him with big round eyes, and he was not afraid of life.
Zuo Shaoyang got up and held the little squirrel in the palm of his hand: "Hey! Will you open your eyes? The little squirrel looked at him and squeaked twice.
"Are you hungry?" Zuo Shaoyang took out the smashed pine nuts from his pocket and handed them to the little squirrel.
Although the little squirrel can open its eyes, it has not yet grown teeth, and it can't gnaw on the pine nuts. Squeaky in a hurry.
Zuo Shaoyang said: "Don't worry, I'll do what I need to do first, and I'll feed you later." β
He put the little squirrel back in the nest, took the nest mantle and went down the stairs, first put the squirrel's nest in the medicine counter, and then came to the kitchen, found a wooden comb, and combed a long hair, but he didn't know how to tie the hair in a bun. Twisting around, tired and sweating came out, so I barely twisted and twisted, wrapped it in a turban, and put on a veil. Then I took a bucket from the kitchen and went to the river well to fetch water.
When I got to the stone steps, I heard the sound of the girl and the young woman laughing from the well below, but the figure was blocked by the manhole cover of the big bluestone slab, and he couldn't see it, Zuo Shaoyang's heart was pounding, and he didn't know whether to go down or wait for a while.
The young woman who liked to joke shook her head, saw Zuo Shaoyang on the steps, and poked the girl next to her with her elbow: "Hey! That fool is here again! Hee-hee"
The girl came out to take a look, smiled slightly, and slapped the young woman: "You are talking nonsense again!" β
"Where did I talk nonsense? See, people are staring at your chest, and their eyes are about to fall off! Hee-hee-hee"
"What are you talking about? Look I don't tear your mouth! The girl reached over and pulled the young woman's face, and the young woman giggled and ducked away, "Don't make a fuss, he sees." If you want to splash, people don't like to watch it! β
As soon as she heard this, the girl immediately stopped making trouble, glanced at Zuo Shaoyang on the steps, lowered her head and began to fetch water.
The young woman raised her head and said to Zuo Shaoyang: "Hey! What are you doing standing there stupidly? If you can't come down yet, I'm afraid that my little sister will eat you? Hee-hee"
Zuo Shaoyang smiled, and hurriedly walked down the steps with a bucket, the steps were drenched with water, and the cold wind blew and froze, so he had to be very careful, otherwise it would be embarrassing to fall down.
Seeing that Zuo Shaoyang came to the well, the young woman stabbed the girl: "Hey, don't you have something to say to him?" What, dumb? β
"No?" The girl's apricot eyes blinked.
"Why did you forget, about your second sister, you still asked Lang Zhong last night, wasn't it ready-made before, it's a big deal that you can help others pick up the water and count it as a medical fee."
"If you didn't mention it, I really forgot." The girl grinned, her face had turned into a red pomegranate without speaking, and she lowered her head and said, "Hey, I want to ask you for a favor, okay?" β
Zuo Shaoyang saw that she didn't look at herself, so she deliberately looked around for a while, and then pointed to herself and said, "The girl is talking to me?" β
"Garlic you!" The young woman said angrily, "If she doesn't tell you, is there anyone else who can't do this?" β
"Aren't you human?" As soon as he spoke, Zuo Shaoyang found that talking to the girls of the Tang Dynasty was still very smooth, and his mouth was also sharp.
"Begging for a beating!" The young woman raised her hand to fight, and then pushed the girl again: "Hey, this fool hurts me, you don't care?" β
"I care? The two of you flirt and scold...... What the hell, hee-hee, can I handle it? β
"Okay, you damn girl!" The young woman grabbed the girl's waist, and the girl giggled and hidden, and the two got into a mess.
Zuo Shaoyang saw that the second daughter was full of youth, and the gloomy mood had cleared up a lot in the past few days, and said with a smile: "If the girl has something, please say it, I will definitely help if I can help." β
The second daughter stopped playing and straightened her clothes, and the girl blushed and said: "That's the case, my second sister has weaned the child, but there is still a lot of milk, and the swelling is very uncomfortable, do you have any way to treat it?" β
"It's easy." Zuo Shaoyang said, "Go back and let your second sister decoction with raw malt in four taels, which can return to milk and reduce bloating." β
"Really?" The girl looked up at him, then bowed her head and said, "Thank you!" I'll help you carry water! Reach over and take Zuo Shaoyang's bucket. How can Zuo Shaoyang let a girl help him carry water, if it is passed out, it will not be a dead person. Hurriedly held down the bucket: "No, no, I'll come by myself, thank you!" β
The young woman said, "What a fool you are! With such a good opportunity, I don't want to come too! β
"No, no, hehe, how can I, a big man, let you women help carry water, people will laugh."
The girl and the young woman looked at each other and giggled. The young woman said, "She will wash her clothes here in the afternoon, or bring your clothes to her to wash." β
"This ......, no need, I'll wash it myself."
The girl glanced at Zuo Shaoyang with disgust, and said to the young woman: "People are worried that I won't be able to wash it!" β
"No, it doesn't mean that." Zuo Shaoyang saw that the girl's words were a little embarrassed, and thought that helping to wash the clothes didn't mean anything, so he said: "Then, I'll bring it in the afternoon, thank you girl." β
"No thanks!" The young woman grinned and said, "Catch up with Ming'er, you cure her heartache, and it will be rewarded!" β
The girl slapped the young woman: "Talking nonsense again! β
Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly said: "The girl's heart hurts? This is not to be taken lightly, I can help the girl take a look. β
The girl even blushed with shame, and said angrily: "Don't listen to her nonsense! My heart doesn't hurt, she makes me happy! Then he went to scratch the young woman again. The young woman giggled and resisted. The two pushed, and the young woman deliberately pushed the girl to Zuo Shaoyang, and the girl bumped into Zuo Shaoyang with an ouch.
The steps are narrow, and there is ice, Zuo Shaoyang couldn't dodge it all of a sudden, but fortunately one hand held the half-human-high stone cover on the well, so he was not knocked down, but his body shook so violently, and the head on his head was crooked.
The girl and the young woman were stunned for a moment, and then giggled.
Zuo Shaoyang blushed, hurriedly straightened his hair, and clumsily coiled his head. His action caused the second daughter to laugh non-stop. The young woman laughed and pushed the girl: "Hey! Don't help people tie their hair up! β
The girl covered her mouth and smiled: "Hey, I'll help you take care of your head." It's such an adult, I can't even coil my hair, hehehehe"
Zuo Shaoyang sneered: "Thank you, girl." β
The girl raised her arm and gently took out a peach wood comb from her hair, and walked to Zuo Shaoyang's side: "You stand like this, why should I comb it?" β
Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly squatted on a horse step, and the second daughter looked at him like this, which was even more funny. The girl stood in front of her and helped him comb his hair. The two were very close, Zuo Shaoyang smelled the faint girl's body fragrance on this girl's body, and saw her bulging chest in front of him, he couldn't help but sway, for fear of being seen like a pig brother, so he hurriedly closed his eyes.
The girl moved quickly, and after three or two strokes, she helped him comb his hair, put it in a bun, and wrapped it in strips of cloth. and helped him put on his head. Only then did he insert the mahogany comb back into his head. Smiled: "Okay! ββWhat are you doing with your eyes closed? β
The young woman giggled and said, "Don't you see that people are enjoying it?" The heart must be very beautiful, if you help comb your hair like this every day, then this life will be in vain! Hee-hee-hee"
