Chapter 3 Comb Mirror
When Xu Chen woke up, he found that he had already slept until noon.
Hearing the movement inside the house, Huang Ying'er asked outside the house: "Young Master, are you awake? The little girl will get you water to wash."
Xu Chen, who had just changed his shoes, suddenly felt that he was not right when he went out or sitting, and he felt uncomfortable all over. Thinking about how he had never been treated like this before, how could he get used to it?
Huang Ying'er came to pick up water and was about to wait for Xu Chen to wash up. Xu Chen hurriedly refused: "Sister Ying'er, don't be there, I'll do it myself."
Since Xu Chen didn't need it, Huang Ying'er didn't force it. She had never done these things that specifically serve others, but she still looked at Xu Chen quietly.
"Where is your father?"
"Dad has already had lunch and went to do farm work. Is the young master looking for him? Do I want me to go to the farm and call him back?" Huang Ying'er asked.
"No, don't...I'll just ask casually."
Xu Chen was not a playboy before traveling through time, but he was at ease with girls and would not embarrass each other. However, he didn't expect that when traveling through time, he seemed to have no room for his skills to use. He looked at the simple Huang Ying'er without any mistakes.
"By the way, don't call me a young master, just call me my name."
Huang Ying'er asked strangely: "Why?"
"Actually..." Xu Chen's eyes rolled, "Seldom people call me like this. People around me call me Brother Xu, and those older than me call me Boy Xu. How old are you, Sister Ying'er?"
"Ah?" Huang Ying'er was suddenly asked about her age by Xu Chen and replied shyly: "The little girl is sixteen this year."
"What a coincidence, I happen to be a few years older than you. Just call me Brother Xu. Don't call me Master so literary. I think it's awkward." Xu Chen said with a smile, as if he felt that he had succeeded.
"Then...well, Brother Xu." Huang Ying'er's face turned a little red.
When Xu Chen finished washing up and handed the towel and bucket to Huang Ying'er, he finally saw Huang Ying'er's face carefully. His hair slowly outlined a slightly thin face with his shoulders. Under his small nose were two cherry lips. It seemed that he found Xu Chen looking at him. Huang Ying'er raised her head and stared at Xu Chen with big eyes.
Huang Ying'er instantly came to her senses and hurriedly ran out with a bucket in her arms. She was shy. She had never had contact with a man so close, especially Xu Chen's appearance now. Although she looked like a sissy in Xu Chen's eyes, in terms of the blessing of the identity of "Young Master" and the aesthetic view of ancient times, Xu Chen looked like a weak scholar, and was extremely handsome.
Seeing Huang Ying'er running away in the panic, Xu Chen was quite happy. At least she could tease this simple girl every day. It's a pity that I have learned so many dirty jokes, but she probably won't understand them either.
Then Xu Chen left Huang Dashan's house. He had nothing to do anyway, so he just walked around the so-called Huang Family Village.
But it’s true that Xu Chen felt that the air he was breathing had a faint sweetness, and it was not a pollution-free sky!
Walking on the earthen streets of Huangjia Village, wooden houses can be seen at your sight, but each household is basically quite far apart. After Xu Chen carefully counted, he found that the Huangjia Village seemed to have only more than 20 households, which was not particularly large. But that was right, the population in ancient times was not that large.
On the way, I always meet some peasant women. They are doing handicrafts together in piles, and some sit together to chat. However, when I see Xu Chen, I lower my head and whisper and don’t understand what to say.
Xu Chen was not shy and hurriedly approached to say hello to everyone: "Hello, aunts."
Unexpectedly, Xu Chen would come over to talk to them on his own initiative, and suddenly several people stood up quickly and stopped the matter. A woman closest to Xu Chen asked, "Well, what's wrong with the young master?"
When Xu Chen heard that the woman called him a young man, he knew that Huang Dashan saved him. He probably knew that everyone in the village had known about Huang Jia Village's village chief. Then, through the speculation of Huang Jia Village, he probably thought that he was the young man of a wealthy family.
Xu Chen was not polite, and quickly approached several women. Seeing them breaking corn, Xu Chen also helped. Originally, the women saw Xu Chen going to do something, so they quickly called "not to use it", but they could not resist Xu Chen.
After sitting down with the women in Huangjia Village, they worked together, and then chatted with each other. Not long after, Xu Chen became familiar with the women. Although he was still a bit alienated from Xu Chen's identity as a "young man", everyone no longer held back in front of Xu Chen.
"By the way, young master, have you really lost your memory?" A woman saw that Xu Chen was not old and had no complicated rules, so she shouted that the young master was angry and started to talk too much.
"To be honest, I'm not very clear. I just can't think of what happened before, just remember my name or something." Xu Chenzao made a draft in his heart and said casually.
"Then do you miss home?"
Xu Chen laughed: "What do you want to think about? I saw the birds singing and flowers blooming in the village, and the scenery was beautiful. There were several aunts here. My aunts didn't bully me as a foreigner, and this village saved me life, so I didn't miss home. I think it's good to stay in this village."
As soon as these words were said, the women's attitude towards Xu Chen became more intimate. Originally, Huangjia Village was a remote mountain village, and there were not many families. They had familiar faces when they met over the years. Finally, a stranger came and spoke so easily. Not long after, only four people were chatting together, but gradually rose to twelve people, and a group of women began to surround Xu Chen.
Xu Chen was not nervous, and showed off his shameless skills and chatted with a group of women. Sometimes he talked about life and sometimes he talked about it. Every word Xu Chen said was deeply rooted in the hearts of women. They were originally simple villagers, so their attitude towards him naturally became better.
When Xu Chen left the crowd and was about to walk back to Huang Dashan's house, there were three corn cobs and five eggs in his arms. The women gave Xu Chen, and when they saw that Xu Chen was weak, they wanted to replenish his body.
Huang Ying'er, who was at home, saw Xu Chen coming back with a gift. When she heard Xu Chen telling her past, she was so amazed and laughed.
"It's just right, I'll give you an egg cake tonight for Brother Xu." Huang Ying'er called Xu Chen like this for the first time, and was a little shy.
Xu Chen seemed to remember something and asked: "I can call you Ying'er."
Huang Ying'er nodded and responded, and she could see that she was obviously shy.
"By the way, you girls look in the mirror, which one should you use if you don't use this mirror?" Xu Chen took out the mirror from his arms and showed it to Huang Ying'er.
"We all use bronze mirrors." Huang Ying'er said as she went back to the room and took out the bronze mirror and handed it to Xu Chen.
