34 Carry water
If Ji Xiaoduo misses the most now, it probably has tap water.
It's not the first time she's lived alone. Laundry, cooking, and cleaning are all a problem. Changing from modern to ancient times, although there are many inconveniences, I can barely adapt to it.
Even the toilet she put up with. After all, someone comes to the door at a fixed time every day to collect it.
Firewood can also be bought at any time for people to send home, and it can be split for a few dollars.
Water is the only problem.
In particular, she began to toss and turn to make snacks, and the amount of water used rose dramatically.
Then she spent a long time in the kitchen, and she had to wash her hair and take a shower.
Although there is a large water tank at home, it is not enough for her at all.
And this kind of irregular consumption, she can't hire someone to fetch water at any time, so she still has to go to the well to fetch it herself.
Her body is small, and she can't exercise it for a day or two, so she can only carry half a bucket and half a bucket home.
Maybe you have to sprinkle a little more on the way, and you'll have to run a few more times.
I don't know how much time I waste on fetching water every day, but I can't do anything about it. No matter what, it has to be used.
Even a few of the guards were full of anxiety.
It's not that they have a good heart, but that they ...... What is this?
If they were to fill the water tank at home, it would be two times at most, and it would be effortless. At the moment, I can only follow her one trip after another, watching her move home little by little like an ant, who is not in a hurry?
But they can't interfere, and they can't help but follow.
It's almost like my throat and eyes are on fire.
Zhao Yi couldn't help but discuss with Zhao Zhong, otherwise, when no one was there at night, help her pick up the water, right?
This is not tossing Ji Xiaoduo, it is completely tossing them.
What the hell is this errand!
Zhao Zhong was also very conflicted, after all, the adults had already beaten him last time, and the order they accepted was not to meddle in Ji Xiaoduo's affairs no matter what.
Zhao Yi glanced at Ji Xiaoduo, who didn't have a bucket of water on the side of the well, covered his eyes again, and moaned, "I can't see it...... Just fetch her water at night, we don't talk about it ourselves, and adults can't do anything, right? Don't let her come out like this every day, it's really ......."
Zhao Zhong didn't want to, but he knew very well that the adults wanted to sharpen the sharpness of this jade version girl, if someone did everything for her, what else would they grind?
He was hesitating, when he saw Ji Xiaoduo's feet slip, and the whole person fell to the edge of the well.
Zhao Zhong subconsciously ran a few steps over there, but he couldn't help but think, the adult said not to let her be beaten to death...... What if she was going to fall into a well and drown?
But before he could make a move, someone next to him grabbed Ji Xiaoduo.
Ji Xiaoduo herself was also startled, and took a breath in shock before turning her head to look at her savior.
I even know.
It was Du Qiao, the gardener who pulled her out of the well in the Liu's retreat garden last time.
Du Qiao was also stunned for a moment.
Ji Xiaoduo has not been traced since he left the Tibetan Garden, he really thought that he had met the flower fairy, but he never expected that he would see it here again.
"Eun Gong?"
"Fairy?"
The two opened their mouths almost at the same time, and then each was stunned for a moment.
Du Qiao blushed, let go of his hand, and let Ji Xiaoduo stand firm on his own.
Ji Xiaoduo also smiled and saluted him, "I didn't expect to be rescued by Engong by the well again, this is probably fate." I'm not a fairy, just a mortal who can't even beat water. I had a last resort before, and I didn't even tell Engong my name, which was really rude, my name is Ji Xiaoduo. ”
"Don't dare to be. Du Qiao hurriedly returned the salute, "Don't dare to be a favor." The girl just calls me Du Qiao. ”
Ji Xiaoduo didn't continue to be polite to him, but it was not good to really call him by name, estimating that he could be older than his current body, so he called him Brother Du.
She asked a little curiously, "Isn't Brother Du working as a gardener in the Liu family, why is he here?"
Du Qiao showed a look of shame, "It's because I'm not good at learning and raising the peony that Old Lady Liu likes, and I've been dismissed." ”
It was the precious green peony, which was originally only half withered, but he took care of it carefully, and slowly got better. One night, I don't know what happened, and suddenly it withered again, and one of the main branches seemed to have been cut off, and this time they couldn't even hide it.
Old lady Liu was furious and attacked them as florists.
Du Qiao was not a slave of the Liu family, and he was not punished, but he was also fined his wages and was driven out of the Tibetan Garden.
Fortunately, he has some savings over the years, and plans to rent a piece of land and open a flower garden by himself, but he has not yet found a suitable place, so he temporarily borrows to live in a relative's house, which is just diagonally opposite this well.
So just now I was so in a hurry to save Ji Xiaoduo again.
Ji Xiaoduo also told the rhetoric of her sister and brother joining her husband again.
Du Qiao immediately remembered that she fell into the well at Liu's house.
I can't help but speculate that the relatives she wants to vote for are not the Liu family?
The embarrassment of the sister and brother that day, he still remembers it vividly, thinking about this orphan girl and weak brother, who came all the way to join his relatives, but was thrown into the well and almost killed him, no wonder she didn't dare to speak out that day, and she was afraid of affecting him. If it involves the Yin and selfishness of the Liu family, ordinary people really can't afford to get involved.
Moreover, he rescued Ji Xiaoduo that day, although she was embarrassed, she was still silk and satin, and she also had hairpin ring jewelry, but now, it was a thorn hairpin cloth skirt, plain face to the sky, of course, it was still good-looking, but compared with the two, Du Qiao couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy and pity in his heart.
He hurriedly picked up water for Ji Xiaoduo and said, "Where does the girl live?" Why don't I send you back?"
Ji Xiaoduo didn't have the strength to do it, this would be scared again, and he couldn't lift the water anymore, thinking that he owed Du Qiao a few times anyway, there were many lice and debts, and he didn't have to worry about it, and he didn't come back together, so he didn't twist it, and showed him the way.
Seeing that she didn't refuse, Du Qiao was overjoyed, and even the bucket in his hand seemed to be a little lighter.
When she arrived at Ji Xiaoduo's house, she didn't wait for her to speak, she found a flat bucket and filled the water tank directly for her. also said to Ji Xiaoduo: "The water by the well is slippery, the girl is not used to these things, it is indeed very dangerous." In the future, if you need to, just call me. ”
"Then what's embarrassing?" Ji Xiaoduo set a table of snacks made in the past two days to entertain him, and poured another cup of hot water, "There is no tea, the hospitality is not good, please forgive me." ”
"The girl is so polite. Du Qiao waved his hand again and again, "It really doesn't have to be like this, I didn't do anything, it's all a convenient thing." Really ......"
"Can't you help me with the work and don't even have to drink saliva?" Ji Xiaoduo interrupted him with a smile, "I made all the dim sum, so you should try it for me." ”
Du Qiao originally wanted to continue to excuse herself, but when she heard that she had done it herself, she reached out and took a piece of it.
He really never thought that he would see Ji Xiaoduo again, and even eat the snacks she made herself.
She looks like a fairy in the clouds, and even this snack is not like mortal food.
Du Qiao only felt as if he was dreaming, and couldn't help but secretly reach out and pinch himself.
It was so painful that he couldn't help grinning, and when he saw that Ji Xiaoduo was next to him, he forcibly held back and couldn't help blushing.
The water was also picked, and the snacks were eaten, Du Qiao knew that he should leave, but he was a little reluctant, looked around, and asked without words: "Where is your brother?"
Ji Xiaoduo didn't mention Zhao Mingxuan, only said: "Go to someone else's house as an apprentice, and you have to rest before you can come back." ”
"Ah......h
Hearing that the fairy brother was not there, Du Qiao couldn't sit still, a lonely man and a widow, and always had a bad reputation for the girl's family.
He hurriedly got up and took his leave.
Ji Xiaoduo didn't stay, but only packed a box of those snacks on the table for him to bring. "If Brother Du doesn't want it, I won't dare to talk to you again if I have anything to do in the future. ”
Du Qiao could only accept it, thought about it, and said, "Is the girl afraid of dogs?"
Ji Xiaoduo didn't react for a moment why he suddenly asked this, so he shook his head, "I'm not afraid." ”
Du Qiao said: "Then I'll send you a puppy tomorrow." First, the girl usually has a companion, and if something happens, she can also bark and warn. ”
This is thinking that she is usually home alone, and it is also a good intention.
Ji Xiaoduo didn't refuse, and nodded, "But the money to buy a dog must be given to you." ”
Du Qiao waved his hand, "No, no, it's my relative's family, there are several, smart and easy to raise, I'll send them to you tomorrow." ”
After deciding to send the dog, thinking that he would be able to see Ji Xiaoduo again tomorrow, Du Qiao was overjoyed when he left.
didn't know that his information had been sent to Zhao Rashi's desk that night.
