Chapter 403 It's better to meet... not to see
Inside, people's mood, people outside don't know!
So the butler still sent six servant girls in according to Zhang Shen's arrangement.
This is a beautiful maid that Zhang Shen bought from somewhere. Originally, he planned to let her out for marriage when she was older. At least she could be the wife of a young general.
So these six maids are very beautiful and have the temperament of Xiaojiabiyu.
These six people are all wearing bright orchid ten brocade makeup and flower gowns, sea blue flower-sprinkled moon skirts that drag the floor, and milky white brocade-embellished tulle.
The head is tied in a double bun, with a white magnolia flower in the cloud temples hanging down, a gold inlaid pearl bracelet on the hand, a jade-colored embroidered net sash on the waist, a lotus purse embroidered with emerald green and silver silk thread hanging on the waist, and a lotus purse on the foot. They are embroidered shoes with plum blossom and crescent moon on the bottom of Ai Lu. When you walk in, the cloud temple steps sway slightly, like flowing clouds and flowing water.
A few people from other countries have come all the way, where have you seen such a girl?
The eyes are all straight!
The maids each brought two cups of tea and put them beside them, and took away the empty tea bowl.
But have they ever seen such a thing?
I really wanted to take this back, so I grabbed it with the maids, and accidentally touched their hands!
The six maidservants turned pale with fright and screamed again and again!
The six girls knew that when these people first came here, they stink badly. The bath water had to be changed eight times before they were washed clean, and their hair was brushed a dozen times with a comb, and the yellow hair on their heads was almost gone.
It even has fleas!
Isn't that something that only cats and dogs have?
The maids dare not approach the courtyard where they live.
Mrs. Wang, who was in charge of boiling water in the kitchen, was said to be so tired that day that she couldn't straighten her waist, and the master rewarded her with two taels of silver and a piece of cloth for this.
You said how hard it was!
Moreover, they are all unmarried little girls, about fifteen or sixteen years old, as delicate as flowers. Zhang Shen envies Wu Youwei for having more than ten girls. People, I usually feel good when I see them dangling in front of me delicately!
But these delicate girls are being taken advantage of right in front of their eyes!
Zhang Shen slapped the table and stood up, Wu Youwei was also shocked, but Wantong had already blown over like the wind, throwing all the foreigners who were robbing the maids for the Sancai bowl out of the door: " roll!"
The bishop was big, but people didn't grab anything, he just cared about protecting himself and the Bible, scepter and other things in his arms, as well as the gifts they brought in.
However, after the person was thrown out, the maids were also crying, and the pear blossoms were raining, not intentionally, but because they were frightened.
If this gets out, they will die!
"Don't cry, don't cry!" Zhang Shen felt distressed: "Our family is in charge of you, you all go back, let the lady Wang from the kitchen come over next time, and see if they dare to stretch their claws!"
One of the servant girls smiled through tears: "The servant girl will leave first."
The lady Wang in the kitchen is a rough woman. It is said that her husband used to be in the navy, but later... the Japanese pirates landed, and her man died in battle, leaving her with two children, orphans and widows, and Mrs. Wang was alone. When it is used by two people, it will drag the two children until they are ten years old, but life is difficult, and the children have to go to school, even though the school is free, they still have to eat!
As the saying goes, half a child eats a poor man.
After Zhang Shen knew about it, he asked Mrs. Wang to come to his kitchen to do some rough work, such as washing dishes, cleaning pots, and lighting a fire.
From time to time, Zhang Shen rewarded the people in the house, including Mrs. Wang, like boiling bath water for these people, and specially rewarded her alone.
As for Mrs. Wang, because she had to support her family alone, she had a hot personality in her early years, and because of her frequent work, her figure was also...rough.
Big frame, big hands, big voice...bigger!
Because she was young and widowed, anyone who dared to touch her hand would have to break the other's arm!
Zhang Shen asked Mrs. Wang to come, and these foreign people will be miserable.
Wantong was ashamed to go out here, and Wu Youwei got the Latin written by the bishop, two sheets, one in Latin, and the other...Wu Youwei didn't know it.
I don't know what language it is.
He also knows one word in Latin, which is "hand".
Wu Youwei knew what it meant without guessing. This was to tell Wantong to stop!
"Come back and sit down." Wu Youwei greeted Wantong.
The poor four people who were thrown out got up tremblingly, and fell like this, and they were still protecting the three talents who had snatched from their arms.
"Look at this prospect!" Zhang Shen was annoyed: "Haven't you seen it?"
"Indeed, I've never seen it!" Wu Youwei said: "The pots they use most are clay pots, and the rest are made of wood. Only the nobles use better gold plates, and the silverware is from them. Relic."
"Using silver as a sacred object?" Zhang Shen was puzzled: "Are you stupid? How good is gold?" "For them, silver is good, and gold is also good." Wu Youwei said: "It's different in different places.
But Wantong didn't continue to pick up their necks, the bishop finally breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and wrote two words "thank you".But he was afraid that Wu Youwei would not understand, so he used several strokes, Wu Youwei. ...he didn't know any of them. "It seems that there is a lack of language communication skills!" Zhang Shen can be regarded as seeing that Wu Youwei knows it, but only a little bit.Obviously, the communication was not smooth, Wu Youwei was half full, and the other party was even more confused.
Because the bishop's confused expression didn't seem to be faking, Zhang Shen knew that the other party didn't even figure out how he offended someone and was thrown out of the house.It’s just that there’s no way to communicate, so Zhang Shen had no choice but to point to himself, then to Wantong, and finally to Wu Youwei.
But the bishop brought a gift, and in the end he felt that Wu Youwei had been sitting there, Wantong made a move, and Zhang Shen yelled, so he presented the gift to Wu Youwei.
"Open it and see what it is?" Zhang Shen was curious, anyway, he didn't need to be polite and impolite with the Fanbang people, so he opened it on the spot to see, what's there for them?He still remembered the history books. It was recorded that every time Eunuch Zheng returned from the sea, he would bring back many rare treasures. Perhaps, he could tell their origins from the gifts he sent.Wu Youwei didn't have any scruples and opened the box.
The box is made of wood. Although it looks neat and square, the wooden box is actually made in the local area, with oriental characteristics on it.
And it's an ordinary poplar box.
It was covered with thick cotton, and a handkerchief was placed on top of it. On the handkerchief was a cloudy... glass bowl!
Wantong pouted, the poorest people here don't use this thing.
Wu Youwei was very embarrassed. It seems that his impression of the West is still in the 21st century.
Zhang Shen even touched the bowl, with a look of disgust on his face: "This is the... baby they escorted all the way?"
Might as well give some gold and silver money.
"It's not easy." Wu Youwei touched his nose.
The bishop made a gesture. He really wanted to tell them how precious this thing was, but the other party couldn't understand, and he couldn't help being very frustrated.
In the end, Vantone couldn't stand it anymore, and felt that such a meeting was a waste of time: "Have someone take them down and teach them to use Chinese pinyin and speak official Chinese. When will they be able to speak human language, and when will we meet again.
Being tossed about early in the morning was like watching a monkey show, he was impatient.
"Okay." Zhang Shen was also helpless: "Come here, please come down and teach them well."
The bishop didn't understand, but seeing that none of them cherished the treasure, he gestured for a long time. It was the little eunuch who understood what he meant, and pointed to the hanging crystal curtain: "Did you see it? This is the treasure."
Because the curtain of glass beads is transparent, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just looked at the good things in this room, and only now realized that the curtains here are all things he has never seen before.
I don't want to let go after touching it.
The little eunuch stared at him: If he dares to tear it off, he must be beaten up!
The bishop still had a lot of self-control, and they were about to hang on here to the death, so they had some time, so they followed.
When the people left, Wu Youwei hurriedly called for people to come in: "Quick! Help me take off the armor."
What kind of armor do you wear on such a hot day?Good-looking is good-looking, but it just makes Wantong suffer.
Two young men in green clothes came in, they stopped putting on airs and quickly took off the armor. In fact, Wu Youwei could take it off by himself, but the armor he was wearing this time was not the same as Wantong's usual armor. Dressed differently for the battle, this is purely because it looks good!
When going to war, it is life and death, so it is natural to pursue safety.
Therefore, the practical armor is not very good-looking, but this kind of pretend armor looks very majestic.
And it's very troublesome!
After unloading, Wu Youwei asked someone to serve herbal tea: "Do you want to go in and change a piece of clothing?"
"No need." Wantong didn't care. He was on duty in the palace in his early years, and sometimes he had to wear armor. He was used to the weight, but it was a bit boring.
"Our family knows that they are washing and changing clothes, and they think they want to show off to us, so we want you two not to be too casual." Wu Youwei's attire is fine, but Wantong's is different, he Wearing a samurai uniform, how can that be?Always meet for the first time, be formal.
It turned out to be anticlimactic.
"You!" Wu Youwei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What can they understand? At least you have to learn the local language before you can communicate with them. Let someone teach you well, don't be negligent."
"No, our family ordered to go down and let someone take care of it." After a toss, Zhang Shenbai had to ask someone to make lunch, and asked Wantong and Wu Youwei to have a good meal.
He came with high spirits, and walked away with his head drooping.
Wu Youwei was also speechless: "This is a mess.
"Who are they?" Wantong was more curious about this: "What kind of clothes are they wearing?"
I have to say that black and red are indeed a very conspicuous match.
It happened to go all the way back, and Wantong didn't ride a horse, because he rolled out the door with the quilt in his arms in the morning, so the two of them sat in a carriage when they went back.
Wu Youwei told him about the situation in the West.
Especially the Holy See, he is not very clear, but he remembers the "Pope", the later Vatican, China, the Pope is also the "Emperor of the Emperor".
"It turns out that the religious teacher is the emperor?" Wantong's understanding of the Pope is not very clear.
Um. Wu Youwei said: "Actually, it's a very small place, like a small county town isolated from the world?" "
This is not what he said. It is said that the Vatican is an inland city-state (China) located on the highlands in the northwest corner of Rome, the capital of Italy. It is called "China" because it borders Italy on all sides.
On the northwest side of Rome, guns and ammunition are not allowed to be used at will, because they are afraid that one bullet will "cross the border" to the Vatican.
That is the "holy place", so many Catholics in later generations, if they really offend their "holy place", riots must be triggered.
Don't know if it's true or not.
The two chatted all the way and went back to the county office.
But this matter can't be left alone, but it needs to be reported to the court, where the other party is from, but the language is not good, they need to study here for one, two or three years, and then consider whether to go to Beijing.
"It's better for them...not to enter Beijing." Wu Youwei curled his lips and said, "They only kneel before their gods, not people.
"With the knife on his neck, he will definitely bend his knees." Wantong is so fierce.
"I hope!" Wu Youwei took the opportunity to tell him about future generations. He remembered that there were not no navigators who came from far away during the Kangxi and Qianlong years, and they even had the mission of the emperor of their country. It was said that it was for business, but because the other party was unwilling to bow down, the emperor refused to meet him.
For the sake of face, the short-sighted emperor will suffer old crimes for future generations.
