Chapter 196 Communication Between Men
Qingyun and the others worked hard all day, but their hearts were satisfied. They all had satisfied smiles on their faces and talked with the people around them.
Master Qing did not lie to them. They saw with their own eyes, touched it, and counted it. One acre of field can really yield 600 kilograms of rice.
The women had already prepared the meal. After everyone finished eating, the men took their clothes and went to the river to take a bath.
In the past few days, when we have been traveling day and night, no one in the convoy has taken a bath. The water sources we found are all small streams, which are only as deep as the calves at most. When encountering a river, everyone must wash themselves well.
"Qingyun, let's go and take a shower." Tian Duoliang only took a pair of pants and came to find Qingyun.
Crazy Wolf and Black Bear also brought pants. If there weren't women in the convoy, they would have just taken a pair of underwear and washed it at the river.
"You go, I will wash it later." Qingyun was stunned for a moment, touched his nose, and waved his hand lightly.
"You don't stink! Let's go!" Tian Duoliang, the cheeky one, came over to pull her away with a wink, "When the rice is being harvested, those girls in the village always look at you."
"roll!"
Qingyun sneered and kicked him angrily, asking him to bother him. She looked more like a man, but after all she was still a girl. Is it okay to take off her clothes and take a shower with a group of men like them?
"You're a grown man, why are you acting so coquettishly like a girl?" Crazy Wolf couldn't stand it and came over to pull Qingyun.
Taking a bath together is also a way of communication between men.
Qingyun: "..."mmp
As a man, if someone says that, he must go.
But is she a man?
She is not!
I don't see them being so attentive when doing things normally. They have to take her with them to take a bath. There's something wrong!
"Go away," he raised his foot and kicked the crazy wolf again, patted the brocade robe, held up the jade crown that bound his hair, and gave a few people a blank look.
"I am a county magistrate after all, and I have to pay attention to my image, do you understand? When I go to the fields to cut rice, I enjoy it with the people and care about the people. It is a day to share the worries and solve problems for the court. Taking a bath naked with a bunch of you guys will not be passed down in the future.
When I go out, I can’t make people laugh out loud and say I’m not polite? Those officials can’t even give me a copy. Go ahead and cause trouble.”
Qingyun drove him away in disgust, while applauding his own quick wit.
"The young master is right. Let the brothers go by themselves. Although the young master has not taken office yet, you should still pay attention to what you should pay attention to. There are many people in the convoy talking about it. If one day it is said as a funny thing..."
Du Chun'an, who had just returned, heard what several people said and he strongly agreed with the county magistrate's approach.
There are so many people in the convoy, so we have to let everyone talk. Bathing is not a big deal. If you don’t talk about it, no one will care. But if you talk about it, everyone will care.
Even Du Zhubo said so, Tian Duoliang and the others couldn't have dragged Qingyun away, but the look in Qingyun's eyes was thought-provoking.
Tian Duoliang patted Qingyun on the shoulder, wondering what he was thinking, and glanced at him sympathetically, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about your shortcomings."
He thought he spoke very quietly, but Crazy Wolf, Black Bear, Du Chun'an and the others heard it, and subconsciously glanced under the blue clouds, then clicked their tongues and left.
What's wrong with her?
Qingyun was stunned for a moment, glanced down, and suddenly understood what Tian Duoliang was referring to, and his face suddenly turned dark.
"You are short, and your whole family is short."
Qingyun gritted her teeth fiercely, she wanted to beat Tian Duoliang to death.
Tian Duoliang saw that Qingyun was looking at something wrong, so he ran away. As soon as they left, Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want people to doubt her identity just because of a trivial matter such as taking a bath.
Du Chun'an was blaming himself and reflecting that he was not a good housekeeper and did not prepare the county magistrate's room.
It's my first time being a housekeeper and I don't have enough experience.
Qingyun pondered for a while, then turned to Captain Bai and said: "Find a room, I want to take a bath, and send someone to guard it outside. From now on, when I take a bath, I will have to be in a separate room, and neither men nor women are allowed to enter. Although everything is kept simple when I go out.
, you must abide by the etiquette that should be observed.”
There was no need to take a shower on the way out. The last time I took a shower was in a pool deep in the mountains and forests. I washed my clothes while I was almost killed by a fish. I haven’t taken a shower since.
In Guanshan County, she lived in the magistrate's room, took a bath in the house, and took a bath again. She dealt with a bunch of rough men all day long, and she lived like a rough man, and she forgot about the problem of taking a bath.
.
It's too late to think about it now.
Bai Yanheng responded and told Shaojie to do this. He had never served anyone before, and the people around him were all ready for him. He hadn't turned around yet.
Soon Bai Shaojie prepared a room. Aunt Li heated up hot water and filled three large buckets. Qingyun took a long hot bath and moaned in comfort.
The clothes she changed were soaked in the bath water and washed by herself. Aunt Li, who was waiting in the yard, saw her washing the clothes herself and hurriedly came in to push Qingyun.
"Aunt Li, I wash my own clothes." Qingyun insists on having enough food and clothing by herself. She is not used to letting others wash her clothes, let alone the underwear she wears.
"Master, what kind of job is this for you? I'll do it! I'll do it!" Aunt Li pushed Qingyun out.
No matter what Qingyun said, Aunt Li just disagreed and was determined not to allow Qingyun to take action. There were a lot of women here, how could they let the young master take action.
Qingyun raised his eyebrows, glanced at the clothes on Aunt Li's hands uncomfortably, turned and left. Out of sight, out of mind!
"Old man, how are you?" Qingyun came to see Song Wenqian. There was no one else in the house, and Qingtian was still playing hide-and-seek with the children in the village and hadn't come back.
One old and one young, they all know what they are talking about.
"The village chief is a good man! He has a righteous heart and understands clearly. He didn't ask anything. Please tell me before you come back." Song Wenqian handed over a pile of paper, which recorded in detail how the villagers grew high-yielding crops.
paddy.
After Qingyun read it carefully, he remembered it in his mind and returned the paper to him, "Have you asked anyone about it?"
Things went smoothly beyond Qingyun's expectation. It was too simple and unrealistic. It wasn't that she didn't trust the village chief. The more cautious she was about this kind of thing, the better.
"Ask Boss Miao." Song Wenqian said.
Qingyun nodded and strolled to the grain drying field again. Boss Miao saw him coming and asked curiously: "Master Qing is here at this time. What's the matter?"
Qingyun nodded and took Boss Miao aside, "What did the veterans say? Did you ask?"
Boss Miao was so confused that he hurried away without wearing any shoes, "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
"The uncles said that the villagers are kind-hearted and honest people. When they mentioned it, the villagers told them. They all told the same thing." Not long after, Boss Miao came back and described the farming to Qingyun.
It was the same as what the village chief had given her, and she felt relieved.
"I understand, you can go to sleep!" Qingyun left.
They planned to leave the next morning, but the village chief and the others didn't mention any benefits and told them about the farming without any secret. Qingyun felt bad, so after thinking about it, he called Du Chun'an.
