Chapter 72 I really thought the whole world revolved around you(1/2)
Zhao Lang raised his head and saw a beautiful woman standing next to him, looking at him cutely.
There was a little maid next to her.
The whole body exudes this ladylike temperament, which makes people feel extremely comfortable.
If it were Zhao Lang from before, he might still be a little embarrassed.
But after having been served by Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu for so long, there is also Ji Wushuang, a monster-looking man, on Zhuangzi.
Zhao Lang already had the ability to resist, and said with a generous smile,
"Girl are you talking to me?"
The woman nodded and returned playfully,
"Master, can you see there are other people around?"
Zhao Lang spread his hands and said,
"I don't have any water with me."
The woman smiled and said,
"Young Master's Zhuangzi is right next to you. Are you stingy with this bowl of water?"
Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows slightly, the other party came prepared.
Of course, he is not vain, this is his territory.
It's just a woman, how can she eat him up?
Speaking directly,
"If the girl doesn't mind, just follow me back to the village."
The woman agreed immediately.
This made Zhao Lang more sure that the other party was prepared. You must know that although there are differences between men and women in Da Qin, they are not as strict as those in later generations.
But it would be unusual for a woman to go back with someone directly, even two thousand years later.
On the way back, Zhao Lang asked casually,
"I don't know the girl's name yet."
"Master, just call me Li Ling'er. Haven't you asked Master yet?"
"Zhao Lang."
The two of them returned to Zhuangzi all the way.
Zhao Lang directly asked Wangcai to send water.
Watching the other person finish the drink in one gulp, Zhao Lang smiled. He wanted to see what Li Ling'er would do next.
"The water at the young master's house seems to be different from other places."
Li Linger said.
"Well, this water has been boiled."
Old God Zhao Lang explained clearly.
He had already asked Zhuangzi's people to drink only boiled water.
"I see."
Li Ling'er nodded thoughtfully, and then said very simply,
"Thank you for the water, sir. I've been out for a long time, so I won't disturb you."
"My home is not far away in Lijiazhuang. If you are thirsty any day, you can come and drink a bowl of water."
After saying that, he bowed and left.
Zhao Lang was stunned for a moment by the other party's crisp look.
After Li Linger left, Zhao Lang called Wangcai over and asked,
"Is there a Lijiazhuangzi near us?"
Wangcai thought about it for a moment and said,
"Yes, sir, it's just north of our Zhuangzi, not far away."
"But this village seems to have changed its owner recently. I heard that there is a very beautiful girl in this family."
Zhao Lang was immediately shocked,
"You are in Zhuangzi every day, how do you know this?"
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Wangcai's face and he said,
"Sir, those slaves love to gossip. I've heard that too."
Zhao Lang then frowned and asked,
"Is it common to borrow water to drink on weekdays?"
Wangcai looked at Zhao Lang and then thought about Li Ling'er borrowing water just now.
Wangcai seemed to understand something and said with a smile,
"Isn't it common for passers-by to borrow a bowl of water when they are thirsty? Water is always available at the entrance of Zhuangzi. Everyone does this."
"Sir, when you are away from home, you should help each other, right?"
Zhao Lang was choked up and speechless by Wangcai's words.
He knew that Wangcai was right. Two thousand years later, this custom still existed in some rural areas.
The words "don't pick up lost items on the road, don't close your door at night, and neighbors help each other" also came to mind.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Zhao Lang's face looked wrong, Wangcai asked with concern.
"nothing."
Zhao Lang waved his hand and said,
"Go and do your work."
After Wangcai left, Zhao Lang smiled and said self-deprecatingly,
"Zhao Lang, Zhao Lang, others are just thirsty and borrowing a bowl of water to drink. It's just a normal interaction between neighbors."
"But you are so suspicious that you really think the whole world revolves around you."
But you can't blame him entirely. In his last life, Zhao Lang grew up and went to the city. You were thirsty and wanted to borrow a bowl of water.
The other party will most likely just give you a blank look and ask you to buy water from one of the shops on the street.
There is no right or wrong in this, it’s just that times are different.
It's just that Zhao Lang was a little emotional.
Being despised by the servant, Zhao Lang suddenly felt a little unhappy.
I'm going to visit Zhuangzi. It's best to find someone to cause trouble and distract myself from the pain.
But it is a pity that the servants in Zhuangzi are more serious about their work.
Zhao Lang was very disappointed.
Soon, he saw Gongzi Gao standing in the yard with a letter in his hand and a look of confusion and pain.
Gongzi Gao was very troubled at this time, so he spent all his savings to buy the naming rights of the new plow.
I thought of dedicating it to Qin Shihuang to please him.
Unexpectedly, a letter that could be considered a rebuke came to me.
This made him extremely uncomfortable.
But Zhao Lang suddenly became energetic.
It's like, if you are unlucky, as long as there is someone more unlucky than you.
Your situation has not actually improved, but you feel better for no reason.
"Young master, why bother?"
Zhao Lang approached and asked.
When Young Master Gao heard the voice, he quickly put the letter away, put on a smile, and said,
"Nothing, my father just sent me a letter."
Before Zhao Lang could ask any more questions, Young Master Gao said,
"Young Master Lang, I still have classes to attend, so I'm leaving first."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
