Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 54
The door of the closed room on the west side of the small courtyard was kicked open, and the thief was thrown into the room. Song Qingshu was touching the oil lamp at the door to light it, and shouted angrily, "Take off your clothes!" !"

Song Qingshu didn't notice, but imperceptible dizziness and anger flashed across the dark face of the little thief in the darkness, as well as a little blush.

"Ouch~"

He was kicked severely on the foot, and the painful Song Qingshu squatted down subconsciously. Immediately, the little thief's fist imprinted on the frame of his right eye, making the famous pastry chef in Xi'an City, Silly Chef, fill in Panda eyes, in Song Qingshu's scream, the little thief rushed out of the dark room like a loach.

I don't know how long this kind of door-to-door thief has been. The thief fled to the yard with ease, opened his mouth to shout, but immediately stayed there like an electric shock.

Under the big tree in the yard, Scarface was squatting by the side, Caiwei was full of novelty standing by the collar, and the younger child who was captured together with her was squatting on the ground, holding a dirty His little face was buried in a soup bowl, and he was eating soup and rice with a snort. Seeing this scene, the thief's footsteps stopped unconsciously.

At this time, Song Qingshu also chased out angrily, grabbed the little thief by the collar and dragged her into the small dark room angrily.

In this era, those who were repaired by Xing's class were not to be ignored, and Song Qingshu became a lot rougher. He just suffered a big loss and angrily threw the little thief into the room, and immediately raised his head violently. The slap wanted a slap across the face, this time I don't know if it was because of fright or what happened, the little thief didn't run around, but closed his eyes and bit his lip, waiting for the slap to come down.

But after a long time, the loud slap finally didn't come out, and with a self-deprecating curse, Song Qingshu turned his head to light the lamp again, and said coldly, "Take off your clothes!"

While struggling, the little thief took off the tattered clothes that had been wrapped around his body for an unknown period of time, shrank into a corner trembling, and squatted down with his knees hugged, but Song Qingshu didn't even look at it, and grabbed the ball The dirty clothes were thrown into the stove casually, and then two handfuls of weeds were stuffed into it. When the fire was turned on, the unpleasant smell instantly turned into a cloud of gray smoke.

Unexpectedly, Song Qingshu burned all his clothes. The thief obviously stretched out his hand and screamed, but Song Qingshu picked her up and threw her into the big wooden bucket in the middle of the room. After pouring it down, the cold thief shrank back with a scream.

Years of great famine are often accompanied by great plagues. Wild history records that when Li Zicheng entered Beijing, the Beijing camp with nearly 30 people surrendered so quickly because of the rat plague in the capital. The defeat in Shanhaiguan was so rapid, and almost never fought a decent battle after withdrawing from Beijing. The army took it out.

The famine led to the death of a large number of people, which led to the epidemic. In the records of literati in the late Ming Dynasty, there are many scenes of a large number of patients struggling in the plague. They finally rescued Caiwei from the hands of death. Song Qingshu also expressed his concern for this The plague of the times has added a layer of awe.

He doesn't have three kidneys, and he is not necessarily more resistant to the plague than these smart people, and there is no big pharmacy in his later life that can offer discounts and free oil for membership cards, and he has to admit that he pays attention to hygiene in his previous life. , also stipulated that Caiwei Scarface should drink boiled hot water like him, and specially built this bathroom, stipulated that he had to take a bath every day, and had already decided to accept these two little thieves, the first thing Song Qingshu did Just give them a thorough disinfection.

Without the patience to wait for the water to heat up, Song Qingshu had already picked up a corn strand, and used it as a bath towel to rub vigorously on the little thief. A layer of black water immediately floated away in the basin. The disinfection Song Qingshu did was really ineffective. Wrong, along with the stains, there were several fleas floating on the surface of the water, kicking their legs in a dying struggle, and a louse even crawled along the thief's hair to Song Qingshu's hand and bit it hard. The little thief pressed into the water, rolled his eyes so much that he held back, and then let it out.

The poor in this era are indeed miserable. The little thief was covered with scars and wounds, some were bitten by various blood-sucking insects, there were also bruises and scratches from beatings, and some were killed by Song Qingshu before healed. It broke.

But the little thief was trembling with pain but he gritted his teeth and endured it, he didn't say a word.

Halfway through the wash, the water was no longer usable, and the dead bugs and stolen goods floated away. Song Qingshu had to pinch his nose and change the water again.

The last time it was Zhu Cunbiao, the leader of the beggars in the Town God's Temple, who caused him so much trouble. This time, it was this group of beggars. Seeing the little thief lying on his stomach trembling, he had to become a bathhouse master to wash it clean, otherwise don't worry, the more The more annoyed Song Qingshu rubbed the other side, he couldn't help cursing viciously.

"If you dare to steal from me, tomorrow you two little beggars will be castrated and sent to the palace as eunuchs!"

However, this sentence of threats not only did not get the desired effect, but Song Qingshu stopped his hands suddenly in astonishment, picked up the little thief, looked at his flat chest that was no different from his own in astonishment, and went down Chou Chou, immediately covered his forehead sadly.

This is actually a little thief!

The last time I glanced at Caiwei, I got an extra concubine, and this time it's up to me again!Song Qingshu, who was already nervous, was staring at the little thief with a blushing face and wanted to bury her legs in her legs. She covered her head with a headache and turned out of the bathroom.

"Your dish!"

Confused, Caiwei went into the bathroom in a daze.

More than ten minutes later, Caiwei came out angrily first, her big watery eyes stared at Song Qingshu with condemnation, making Song Qingshu's back go numb, especially since there was still a streak on this girl's face that she had gotten from Hongniang Xing before. The visible acid clothes made Song Qingshu's back go numb.

Immediately afterwards, Scarface next to him sucked in a breath of air like a convulsion.

People really rely on clothes, throw away the tattered clothes, and put on Caiwei's set of overalls, the maid outfit in the later anime, and then wash the face, thin chin, cute Two-dimensional Big eyes, if it weren't for the small breasts, she would be like a cosplay beauty in later generations, and Song Qingshu's eyes would be wide-eyed.

In particular, she didn't know how to take a bath, and she was still naked by the man. The two flying clouds on the slightly lowered face of this little female thief made people's hearts miss her even more.

Even catching a thief can catch a juicy loli, is it good luck or bad luck?

Before Song Qingshu could understand his emotions clearly, the scarred face on the back was already drooling, patting his thighs, laughing and shouting: "I said you are a fool, you are as smart as a ghost, but today you are confused and brought back by two little beggars, so you are here Ah! This is really top-notch stuff, if you sell it to the gang of skinny horses, you can sell it for at least ten taels of silver!"

Scarface's words immediately aroused the little female thief's strong fear, she lowered her head and stared at herself warily, Caiwei's big watery eyes stared out like seeing a perverted uncle, under the interweaving of these two eyes, Song Qingshu even more Depressed, first treat Lao Tzu as a pedophile pervert, and then treat Lao Tzu as a human trafficker, is Lao Tzu's image so unbearable?
Under the two strange gazes, Song Qingshu didn't explain at all, handed over the little thief to Scarface to take care of, and dragged another little beggar who was eating and sleeping stupidly to the bathing pool, but this time, Caiwei, who had learned from the past, She stomped on him angrily, grabbed the little beggar's hand, and Caiwei dragged the thing into the bathroom.

However, in less than 5 minutes, there was a sudden scream from the bathroom, and immediately Caiwei blushed, covered her eyes and ran out the door sadly, this time she was a man with handles.

Seeing Ding Ding shaking in the bathroom, Song Qingshu slapped his head sadly again: "I'm really a bath master today!"

…………

Fortunately, he is a half-child, and after half an hour of tossing, it can be regarded as clean and clean enough to be put into the pot. In addition, Song Qingshu also tossed the foreign monk Tang Ruowang over again, and checked the two children inside and out. , After confirming that the two children did not carry any infectious diseases, the tossing of this night can be regarded as an end.

However, this is also the beginning of the tragic life of the unlucky siblings.

In the kitchen, a big bucket full of goat's milk was placed in front of the dumbfounded siblings. With a cold face, Song Qingshu knocked on the table in a demeanor and shouted, "This bucket of goat's milk must be cleaned tonight." All the milk is whipped into cream! If you can’t finish it, you have to sleep! Don’t try to be lazy! Otherwise, I will sell you to Qin Wang’s mansion as a eunuch, and sell you to be a skinny horse! I know it all!”

Seeing Song Qingshu's gloomy look holding a whip, the little brains of a pair of thieves brothers and sisters immediately clicked like chickens pecking at rice.

Although the hand-cranked cream cone brought by the foreign monk Tang Ruowang has greatly improved the efficiency, the cream needed to make cakes and desserts every day is still a heavy burden. Every night is like a middle school student doing homework. The point is that I can't finish it. Although I'm a little tired today, it's rare to be able to be a shopkeeper. Hearing the creaking sound of the drum in the kitchen, Song Qingshu couldn't help stretching comfortably, facing the starry sky. muttered.

"The evil feudal society!"

…………

It's rare to sleep early, and early the next morning, Song Qingshu, who had forgotten all the troubles of these days, woke up refreshed, ready to start a new day's work in a full-bodied state of mind. However, when he pushed the kitchen away, Song Qingshu was dumbfounded.

A bucket of goat milk was placed there neatly, holding the handle of the mixer in their hands. The pair of thief siblings were sitting on the ground, sleeping soundly, especially when their saliva was still flowing along the handle. Drop by drop into the goat milk bucket, looking at the capacity of the bucket, it was obviously higher last night.

Song Qingshu's mouth suddenly twitched...
