Chapter 26

Su Xiaopei fell into a deep sleep this time, and when he woke up, he was in a daze, staring at the dirty roof, and after a while he realized that he had crossed again.

There was a light knock on the door, and Ran Feize called her softly: "Girl, it's time to get up."

Su Xiaopei responded, knowing that the sun had risen, and it was time for the people in the wine shop to be active.Although the backyard was secluded, some people would come to fetch firewood and carry sundries, so it would be inconvenient for her to wash up.Su Xiaopei got up, put on his clothes, took the washing utensils, and opened the door. There were water, buckets and other things at the door.And Ran Feize was chopping firewood not far away.

The morning in March is still a bit cool, the sun shines into the yard, but it is not necessarily warm.

Su Xiaopei shrank his hands and feet, squatted in a corner, brushed his teeth and washed his teeth, and secretly looked at Ran Feize. He had obviously been working for a long time, and his thin single clothes were sweating. When Su Xiaopei looked at him, he also looked at him.

Su Xiaopei was a little embarrassed, turned his body sideways, blocked his gaze with his back, and speeded up the washing action.What's so good about brushing your teeth? Why doesn't Mr. Strong man say that brushing his teeth is indecent, and don't look at evil?

After Su Xiaopei washed up, he went to the latrine, went in holding his breath, and came out as if he was running away after quickly solving the problem.The most uncomfortable place to travel through is that you can't enjoy the modern toilet.Su Xiaopei had a bitter face, and suddenly thought of what to do when her aunt comes every month?She counted the days, if it were in modern times, it would be here soon, but she wondered if the time here would be the same as that over there.

She washed her hands with a sullen face, and went back to the room, where Ran Feize was standing, holding a bowl for breakfast.There were two bowls on the only chair, one with porridge and the other with four steamed buns and some pickles.These are the two of them breakfast.

Su Xiaopei exhaled, and said to himself that it is good that he is not hungry.As usual, she sat on the bed, had a bowl of porridge, served pickles, and ate a steamed bun.

Ran Feize ate all the remaining steamed buns unceremoniously, not only eating quickly, but also with great relish.Su Xiaopei felt that she was able to survive in this world, perhaps because Ran Feize was very optimistic and never showed the appearance of enduring hardships. This must have a positive influence.

After eating, Su Xiaopei told Ran Feize that he wanted to go to the yamen today and chat with that bandit Luo Ping.She also thought about how she would answer if Ran Feize asked her what she was talking about.

But Ran Feize didn't ask, but said: "It's not right for a girl to go out alone. If you go to the yamen to look for thieves, you may be criticized if you speak."

Su Xiaopei was about to say something to persuade him, but Ran Feize had something else to say: "After I finish my work, I can go with the girl in the afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaopei nodded quickly.It would be nice if Ran Feize went with her there, and he could help add a few words to what she said that others couldn't understand.

So this morning, while Ran Feize was working, Su Xiaopei looked at her diary notes again and sorted out her thoughts.But those few pages couldn't be read for too long, so she put away the diary, she was really bored, so she went to the yard to watch Ran Feize.

Ran Feize's job today is to clean the wine tank.

The wine vats filled the corner of the courtyard, each of them was as high as Su Xiaopei's waist, and quite heavy.Ran Feize laid them out in the middle of the yard, fetched water and washed them one by one.Su Xiaopei looked at it for a while, and felt that he could do it, so he went over to help.

When Ran Feize first saw her coming, he thought she had something to say, so he stopped and looked at her.

Su Xiaopei felt a little embarrassed by him, and wanted to back off, but then he thought about how shameful she was for being taken care of by him, but she never helped to contribute labor for so many days.Thinking of this, she quickly rolled up her sleeves and said loudly, "Strong man, I'll help."

Ran Feize looked at her in a daze: "Girl, the girl's naked skin and naked body don't behave well..."

He kept the second half of the sentence silent, but Su Xiaopei's jaw was about to drop.Isn't it wrong to roll up your sleeves?

"Then, doesn't that girl have to work?" She looked at her arms and sleeves, frowned and put down the sleeves.

Look, it's a little wide, and it's inconvenient to work.

Ran Feize didn't speak, turned his head and went into the house, and came out after a while, holding two cloth ropes in his hand.He motioned for Su Xiaopei to raise her arms, and then he helped to tie her cuffs.

"The girl's house is going to work, no one else is there, it's fine anyway, if someone is there, tie up your cuffs. People often come and go in and out of this backyard, and the girl shows her arms, so it's not good."

"Oh." Su Xiaopei sighed inwardly, it was also very inconvenient to tie the cuffs.But forget it, do as the Romans do, and she doesn't want to be said to be indecent and have her arrested.

Su Xiaopei took a cloth towel and wiped the wine jar like Ran Feize did.The inside of the wine tank must be cleaned, and the stains must be wiped off the outside.With great strength, Ran Feize picked up the wine jar with one hand and poured out the scrubbing water inside, then wiped the outside and put it aside.Su Xiaopei couldn't lift it, so she could only push it sideways, and the water was poured out, but the outside of the tank was also covered with mud, so she squatted down and wiped it again.After Ran Feize cleaned four pots, she finished one out of breath.

Ran Feize ignored her as if she was playing.Su Xiaopei wiped off his sweat, thinking that it would not be easy to earn money here.

She started rubbing the second one.I poured water into the tank, cleaned the inside, poured out the water, poured in the water again, poured out the water again, and then prepared to wipe the outside.It went smoothly at first, but when she poured out the water for the second time, she pushed the tank and missed it, and the tank was overturned with a bang, so unfortunately there was a big rock at the end, and Su Xiaopei heard a "click" A crisp sound made her heart twitch in fright.

Hurry up and try to straighten the tank to check it, it's over, it seems that there is a crack, it's cracked!It just broke like this!The quality is too bad!
Su Xiaopei wanted to cry but had no tears: "You won't make us pay?"

Ran Feize picked up the vat and looked at it, then wiped it clean quickly and put it in the pile of clean vats.

Su Xiaopei opened his mouth wide, pointing at the trouble he caused, Ran Feize didn't wait for her to speak, blinked and said: "Maybe it was Boss Xu who broke it himself, who knows."

Su Xiaopei was stunned, can this be done?

She quickly withdrew her hand and stopped pointing.Looking around again, no one came in or saw anyone in the yard.

"A strong man is wise."

It's not that she is a scoundrel. If she was still in modern times, she would definitely be responsible for breaking other people's things, but now she is penniless and has no capital to be responsible.Besides, the boss Xu was stingy and didn't even let them use a table. Ran Feize worked so hard every day without even paying any wages. He only cared about steamed buns, porridge and some vegetarian dishes. It was really stingy.

Well, thinking about it this way, she felt much more comfortable.

"Sit next to the girl." Ran Feize confiscated the cloth towel from her hand, and started to chase people away.Su Xiaopei pursed her lips, and sat on the firewood pile beside her, knowing that her labor force was disliked.

"I really want to help." She felt the need to defend herself, she really didn't come to make trouble, she just successfully wiped one.

"Well, the girl is kind, I understand." Why did the tone sound so insincere.

Su Xiaopei hugged his knees and sighed.

"Girl, don't panic, even if Boss Song finds out about the wine tank, there's nothing he can do about it."

"Really?" That's right, they really have no money, and there is no way to lose money.But she was afraid that they would no longer take them in, drive them away, or deprive them of their poor three meals a day.

"Well, girl, don't worry. You and I are both penniless. If you want to pay, you have to pay the girl. He doesn't dare to ask for it."

Damn, what kind of mentality, why did you dare to pay her for the past?
"The girl is powerless and can't do the job. Boss Song's keeping the girl must be a loss-making business. The girl's details are unknown, she is not young, she has no money, it is so weird, how dare he want it?" .”

Listen, what are you talking about?Do you want to analyze it so carefully.Moreover, she is not without hair, she has hair, but it is a little short.

Su Xiaopei touched his hair, very unconvinced.

"Furthermore, the girl's name, Xiaobei, a businessman, is such an ominous name, how dare you ask for it?"

"Strong man!" Has he finished yet?

Su Xiaopei puffed up his face: "A strong man doesn't know something, Xiaopei is a good name. When my mother...my mother just gave birth to me, my father read a story called Hua Fairy, and there was a girl named Xiaopei in it. Pei. The little girl Pei traveled all over the world, looking for a kind of fetish called seven-color flower. She was very brave and kind. In the end, she found the flower of happiness and her own happiness. It was originally a show for children. But my father likes it very much. He said that life is very long for a person, and it can’t be smooth sailing for decades, so he hopes that I will be healthy and happy, and I can be like that little girl Pei. It’s practically flat and smooth, but no matter what difficulties and ups and downs you encounter, you can overcome them in the end and find happiness. That’s why my name is Xiaopei.”

When Su Xiaopei talked about her father, she felt a little sad. Does her dear father know that she is really not smooth, but she will try her best to fulfill his hope and face all this bravely.

She blinked, blinking away the moisture in her eyes. "My mother didn't like this name. She originally wanted to give me an elegant name, Su Ya, and said that it was good for a girl, but my father insisted on calling me Xiaopei. The two of them argued for this many times, and finally My dad won."

She took a deep breath and turned her head to see Ran Feize looking straight at her. She came back to her senses and quickly said, "I mean, my dad won. In our place, we call daddy dad and mommy mommy."

"I understand." Ran Feize nodded. "The girl can still guess the meaning when she speaks like this. It's just that the girl should pay more attention to what she says in front of outsiders."

"Understood." Su Xiaopei responded, she will remember to work hard to correct it.She also knew that Ran Feize was talking about this for her own good, and was about to say something more, but someone called at the courtyard gate: "Strong man."

The voice was soft and delicate, a bit deliberately sweet.Su Xiaopei turned her head and saw a young girl standing there with a bamboo basket, smiling shyly.

There is a situation!Su Xiaopei is not a good gossip person, but the gossip of strong man Ran Feize is still very attractive.

"Strong man." The girl came in and bowed to Ran Feize, "The strong man is really here, so I can find it easily."

Su Xiaopei finally knew how a young woman should salute, no wonder everyone stared at her when she hugged her fist last time.

The girl didn't notice that Xiaopei was on the side, and she only talked seriously to Ran Feize: "The strong man helped me last time, but I haven't thanked you yet, so I'm really sorry. The strong man didn't leave his name, and I want to thank him, but I don't know where to find him. Fortunately, I have a destiny with the strong man. I really found it. I don't know how to thank you, so I just burned some hoofs and let the strong man eat with wine."

She walked closer while talking, but Ran Feize took two steps back, cupped his hands and said: "Miss, you are welcome, it's a little effort, no need to thank you."

The girl blushed, and her voice was softer: "Don't dislike the strong man, I really don't know what else to do besides cook some vegetables." Then, she stepped forward two more steps, trying to pass the basket over.

Ran Feize took another big step back: "Miss is too polite, I just helped her move the firewood, it's really easy, girl, don't be polite. If I get mud on my body, I won't get close to the girl."

Ran Feize's big step almost stepped on Su Xiaopei, Su Xiaopei jumped up for a moment, but was finally seen by the girl.

Surprised, she blinked.

Su Xiaopei felt that Ran Feize did it on purpose, she hid and watched the show well, but he deliberately stepped on her to come out.She could only show her innocence by smiling at the girl who had obviously expressed her affection for her.

"Girl, I can't accept this hoof." Ran Feize continued to reject the delicious meat delivered to the door, and looked back at Su Xiaopei, saying: "We are vegetarian."

What?Who is vegetarian with whom?
Su Xiaopei sighed inwardly, knowing that Ran Feize really did not dare to accept this gift.Look, this is the difference, even if she pays the compensation to others, no one else dares to take it, let's change him, as long as she helps someone move firewood, Yanfu will come to her door.Su Xiaopei coughed lightly, well, she was helped by others, and she should return it.

"I can't afford wine either." She chimed in with the truth.
