Chapter 4: The Deceased (2)
When Master Xia saw his daughter's embarrassed expression, he suddenly realized that there was ambiguity in his words. Xia Ruixi wanted to go to the toilet, but he told her to eat carefully. couldn't help but smile on his face, and coughed a few times: "Why don't you go soon?" ”
Led by Wan'er and Chun'er, Xia Ruixi walked through a willow forest and followed the smell to a small, rotten stone hut. What is Rotten Rock? In order to save money, the kind of unformed, messy, large and small stones obtained from local materials are called rotten stones.
At the door of the hut hung a reed mat of unknown color, and in order to enter, the curtain had to be lifted. Xia Ruixi felt disgusted and didn't want to touch the curtain, so she had to look at Wan'er.
Wan'er has been raised in Xia Mansion since she was a child, and she lives the life of half a young lady, so she naturally doesn't want to let this filthy thing stain her slender hands, so she gently pushed Chun'er: "I'll lift the skirt for Miss, and you go to make the curtain." ”
Chun'er didn't say much, opened the curtain, and a large smell came to her nose, which also made Xia Ruixi see the situation inside. She gasped, the situation was far beyond her imagination, it was a digging pit, on which were sparsely supported a few round trunks that seemed to be rolling, and the trunks were drenched with suspicious things, and there were some dry thin yellow and black things hanging on them.
Xia Ruixi looked at his beautifully made embroidered shoes and silk skirt that reached the ground, and was in trouble. Not to mention that this clothing has the possibility of being defiled at all, even the round tree trunk that is casually placed on the edge of the pit, she doesn't dare to step on it, what if it falls? She still remembered the Jin Jinggong who drowned in a dung pit in Chinese history, and she didn't want to follow in his footsteps and die in the pit.
But once this physiological need comes up, it waits for no one. Xia Ruixi clenched her fists, broke out in a cold sweat all over her body, and looked at the willow forests around her, just afraid that she had the courage to solve it in the open air, and the others were also resolutely refused.
Wan'er saw that Xia Ruixi was restless and in a cold sweat, so she volunteered: "There are still people around here, wait for the slave to ask again, Miss, you can bear with it." "Xia Ruixi, what else can he do besides forbearance? I had to nod distraughtly. As she spoke, a woman in a white shirt and a green dress passed by the willow grove carrying a basket. Wan'er hurriedly shouted: "That sister-in-law, wait a minute." ”
The woman stopped, and after Wan'er went up to talk to her for a few words, she came over to greet Xia Ruixi with a happy face: "Miss, that woman's family lives nearby, and she has a clean toilet at home. The slave maid said to her, will the young lady go? ”
The woman smiled and pointed to a large peach blossom forest not far away: "Oh, that's it." ”
Xia Ruixi breathed a sigh of relief, at this time, there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of her, as long as she solves this problem, where is there any reason not to go? After lifting his skirt and walking quickly, he didn't forget to tell Chun'er: "Chun'er, you go back to the master quickly, and ask him to send someone to pick me up immediately." ”
Chun'er was born in the market and knew a lot of abduction and cheating of women from good families, so she responded crisply, and shouted at Master Xia while raising her skirt and striding towards the wine store.
Xia Ruixi was so obviously precautionary, and someone else would definitely be unhappy. The woman's face remained unchanged, and she said with a smile: "The slave family is a woman from a good family. Miss will know when she goes, if she thinks it is good, she may wish to reward the slave family with a few dollars to subsidize the family. ”
Xia Ruixi couldn't bear to be upset, and didn't bother to talk to her, only whispered a few words to Wan'er. It didn't take long to arrive at the peach blossom forest, and when I got closer, I realized that this peach blossom forest was very large and deep, and the forest was full of colorful flowers, but unfortunately Xia Ruixi was ******** only thinking about one thing now, and he really didn't have the leisure to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
The path in the forest alternates vertically and horizontally, turns left and right, and enters a courtyard with blue bricks and white walls, the woman smiled and led Xia Ruixi into a bluestone hut, the ground of the house is made of granite A ditch, in which there is a clear stream flowing through, if there is a urine and urine, it can be washed away by the stream immediately, which can be regarded as an ancient flushing public toilet. Although the smell is still not good, compared to just now, it is already a world of difference.
Wan'er was going to help Xia Ruixi lift her skirt, Xia Ruixi shook her head, "I'll come by myself, you can do what I just said." If you hear the voice of someone coming to look for us, say yes. "She is not familiar with life, she doesn't dare to hold up, and she doesn't want to be trafficked, so she can only let Wan'er guard the door, it's always right to be careful.
But when she finished solving the big things happily, nothing happened. When she walked out the door, the woman smiled and handed her hot beans to clean her hands. Xia Ruixi was stunned, he had never seen such a thoughtful service, and he thought that it would not be good to wash his hands, so he washed his hands with great enthusiasm. As soon as I finished washing my hands, a snow-white and fragrant cloth towel was handed over again.
When Xia Ruixi finished finishing it, the woman asked with a smile, "Is Miss still satisfied?" ”
Xia Ruixi couldn't figure out what this woman meant, so he had to clear his throat: "I'm very satisfied, thank you." This sister-in-law, you don't have to be so polite. ”
The woman smiled, looking like Xia Ruixi was not on the road: "Actually, this is a traffic artery, and there will always be all kinds of female relatives passing by here." People eat grains, naturally they have that need, but the thatched toilet over there is really too ......" she fanned under her nose, and looked at Xia Ruixi: "As women, the slave family naturally understands the needs of your delicate ladies and ladies, and specially let me spend a lot of money to repair this toilet, fortunately, the ladies and ladies are quite satisfied, and give the slave family a lot of rewards." However, the principal has not yet been confiscated. ”
Xia Ruixi suddenly realized, this is the ancient version of the paid toilet, this woman is quite business-minded. People had previously said that if she was satisfied, she would give a reward, but she was in a hurry to solve her physical problems and didn't take it to heart. Let the family bring it up so clearly, but it's not hers. smiled and said, "Wan'er, give this sister-in-law some thanks." ”
Wan'er carries a small purse with her, which is needed from time to time. smiled and reached out to probe, but his face changed greatly, and he said embarrassedly: "Miss, the slave's purse is gone, and I don't know if it fell in the car or on the road." ”
The woman smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, Miss won't be in a bad position like this, the workmanship of a single pair of shoes is enough for our family to eat for a month, not to mention other expensive things on our body." Aren't the people in Miss's family still coming to pick up Miss? Why don't you just rest here for a while, you see, how comfortable the sun shines on your body in this spring, and how good are these peach blossoms? Saying that, she really brought out a stool, she said it nicely, but she showed that Xia Ruixi would not let her go without paying.
Wan'er said unhappily: "Our carriage is in front, you and we will go and get it, there will be no shortage of you." ”
The woman smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, there is a nursing child in the slave family, and he is about to wake up, and he can't leave anyone." Anyway, someone is coming to pick up Miss, how about Miss just wait for a while? This forest is dense, and there are many paths, so that the one who picks you up will not go down a fork in the road with you. ”
Why is everything so rushed? Xia Ruixi muttered a little in her heart, and she didn't show it, anyway, Chun'er went to inform Master Xia, thinking that someone would come soon, she was not afraid. She naturally refused to sit down, and after a while, the woman invited Xia Ruixi into the house to drink tea.
Because she felt that this woman seemed to be doing everything possible to keep her, Xia Ruixi didn't dare to sit down, where did she dare to go to the house to drink tea? She just wanted to leave this place quickly, her eyes glanced at the silver earrings on Wan'er's ears, and she had an idea, "The peach blossoms will not be rewarded, and we have to hurry up." Wan'er, take off your earrings as a thank you gift, right? I'll reward you with another good pair when you go back. ”
Hearing that there was a reward, Wan'er happily took off the earrings and handed them to the woman, who hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take them: "This is too much, how can you be embarrassed?" He greeted warmly and loudly: "Miss will come back in the future?" ”
Xia Ruixi just wanted to leave this courtyard quickly and go back quickly. But her feet stepped out of the courtyard gate, and she regretted it again. Because Master Xia didn't come for a long time, she didn't dare to leave this courtyard, Chun'er only knew that they were here, if something happened to them after they went out, it would be nowhere to be found. After thinking about it, it is safest to wait where you are.
She was about to go back, and a figure slowly walked out of the peach blossom forest, it was the Ming son Zhao Mingtao, who was said to have left, with a jade belt in green clothes and a rich god like jade. Zhao Mingtao said with a smile: "Xixi, it's really not easy to see you, if it weren't for today's coincidence, I don't know what year and month it will take to see you." Are you in good shape? I've always wanted to see you, but unfortunately I didn't have the chance, you won't blame me, right? ”
It turned out to be him, it seems that his abdominal pain is unbearable, and Wan'er's purse is not all concocted by him. This person probably didn't know in advance that she would go out and pass by, and he thought that he had come to see her on the spot.
Although the technique is crude, it is extremely useful. Just think, apart from this method, what other way can take her away from Master Xia without a trace? In the novels and film and television dramas she has seen, the people of the royal family are all shameless and unscrupulous to achieve their goals, and this person can design this long series of interlocking schemes in such a hasty time, which is really powerful.
Xia Ruixi was a little scared, she didn't dare to answer, she quickly turned around, and planned to go to the courtyard, but the courtyard door closed "bang" in front of her. She had no way out, so she had to grab Wan'er's arm. Wan'er said softly: "Miss, don't be afraid, this is Ming Gongzi, he won't harm you." ”
Xia Ruixi secretly rolled her eyes, she naturally knew that Zhao Mingtao would not harm her, and she would not dare to harm her, but she had already "lost her memory", and she had forgotten all about the past. A pampered young lady like her, in such a situation, suddenly saw a strange man, this panicked appearance is normal. So she stubbornly turned her back, refused to look up, and said in a deep voice: "Wan'er, are you crazy?" What Ming Gongzi, I don't know. You tell him to leave quickly. ”
Without waiting for Wan'er to speak, a pair of well-made boots stopped in Xia Ruixi's sight, "You really forgot me?" ”
Note: According to the "Zuo Biography", at noon one day in 581 BC, Jin Jinggong Ji felt bloated after tasting new wheat, so he went to the toilet to, accidentally fell into the dung pit and died, becoming the first king to be drowned in the dung pit according to official records.
