Chapter 5 Chapter Four

The next morning, the women in the basement were quiet.Chen Qiaozhi brought them porridge, but he couldn't wake them up.At one o'clock in the afternoon, they appeared one by one in the kitchen and dining room, asking why there was no food for them.Their legs are weak from hunger. Seeing that her ban has no effect on her, Fabio calls Yumo to the dining room to arrest the thief first. "I am warning you for the last time, if you come out and run around again, you will no longer be welcome." Yu Mo apologized first, and then said: "I understand that we are not welcome. But they are really hungry."

The women gradually gathered around the door of the restaurant, looking around.See if your negotiators are doing their job and if you need their help.The fourteen sisters gather together, and their eloquence, force and knowledge can be quite complete. "I'll talk about eating later. First, I'll repeat the rules I made to you," Fabio said. He tried his best to translate Yangzhou dialect into Beijing language, which spoiled a few kiln sisters who loved to laugh. "Then let's talk about the latrine first." He whispered. "Not allowed to eat, not allowed to pull!" Cardamom said.

"It's just a women's toilet, in there," Hong Ling pointed to the Bible workshop. "The little bosses locked the door and kept the keys. We can only go to the church for convenience." "Do you use the toilet in the church?" Fabio said, "It's for the gentlemen, ladies, and young masters who are celebrating mass! Now there is no water in the toilet, and the smell is still there?" Yu Mo covered Fabi with her big black eyes. When she looked at people like this, there seemed to be only a pair of big eyes left on her small face, and you couldn't hide them even if you wanted to.Fabio's thirty-five-year-old heart stopped for a moment.He didn't know that men couldn't be stared at by Zhao Yumo like this, there would be consequences if they were stared at.

"Deputy priest, they can respect themselves, but they are often forced not to respect themselves," Yu Mo said.She still clearly distinguishes herself from the group of colleagues or sisters at the door, and asks Fabi not to mistake her. The kiln sister who wears a five-star badge can't even see a poor foreign monk like Fabi in peacetime. Fabi spoke again, obviously with the consequences of Yumo's "staring".He lowered his tone and told Yu Mo that he had asked A Gu to help solve the problem of going to the toilet.A Gu and Chen Qiaozhi would dig a temporary latrine in the yard, and give them two lead buckets with two cardboard lids as temporary toilets.When the temporary toilet was full, he carried it to the backyard and dumped it in a temporary latrine.But he stipulated that the time for them to empty the toilet must be before five o'clock in the morning, so as to avoid meeting the female students or meet Engman.

"Five in the morning?" Hong Ling said, "Our morning is now." She raised her fleshy hand, revealing a small wrist watch with short hands indicating between one and two o'clock in the afternoon. "From now on, you must abide by the church's timetable, live on time, and eat on time. After the meal time, I'm sorry. The female students save food from their teeth for you. If you don't eat, they It doesn’t necessarily mean that the noodles will be soaked and wasted.” As Fabi spoke, he thought to himself, it’s strange that he was talking to the leader of the kiln sister calmly.

"Hey, I really want to go to a monastery!" Hong Ling laughed. The women all knew the allusion to this saying, and they all laughed along in a low voice.Their smiles are ambiguous, and even Fabio, who is not familiar with men and women, feels that they are eating their own tofu with this kind of laughter. "Quiet, I'm not done yet!" Fabio was rough, partly at herself because she had stopped being rough with them. Yu Mo turned his head, and cleared up the discipline of his companions with his eyes.The laughter stopped. "How many meals a day?" Cardamom asked.

"How many meals do you want to eat a day, miss?" He lifted his chin, drooped his eyelids, and looked at the short cardamom even shorter. "We are usually used to eating four meals, with one extra meal at night." Cardamom replied solemnly. Hong Ling answered immediately: "It's fine for a simple night, a few snacks, a soup, a glass of old wine, and that's it." She knew that Fabi would be mad at them to death.She thought it was fun to be angry with him.In her experience, when a man and a woman fight, they kiss quickly and their interest rises. He murmured, "Can I attend the church?"

Hong Ling clapped her hands and said happily: "Here is someone who wants to change her mind and start a new life! In fact, she found out how much red wine a person can drink on a Sunday. Don't be fooled, she can drink up all your wine barrels!" "Fuck your grandma!" Whisper cursed insincerely. Yu Mo hurriedly covered up and made amends, and said to Fabio: "My lord vice priest, if you hadn't been kind enough to take us in, we might have been in disaster." As she spoke, those big black eyes fixed on Fabio again. , Let him fall into her eyes, sinking into the depths. "During the war, we would be grateful if we could give our sisters a sip of porridge. Thank you girls for us too."

For a while, Fabio forgot the identity of this woman, and felt that he was in a certain park, or by the Xuanwu Lake, or in the shade of a sycamore tree on Zhongshan Road.Although her demeanor is a bit too much, her elegance and gentleness are real, and her words are very good on the table, although her accent is a little bit tricky. Fabio originally wanted to finish the matter in three or two sentences, but he found himself walking towards the back of the church with Yu Mo.Yu Mo is a person with winking eyes. When he saw his female companions following in doubt, he stopped and told them to be good, and hurried back to the basement.What Fabi just said was "please come with me", not "please come with me".

There is a rectangular pool behind the main building of the church, and the water stored is for baptism.The pool is carved out of white marble, and there is a layer of fallen hickory leaves on the bottom of the pool, which has turned rusty red.After the fall of Shanghai, people worried more about their physical life than their spiritual life, and no one was baptized in three months.Pointing to half of the pool of tea-colored water, Fabio said, "I just want you to take a look at this. Since you guys came, the water has dropped a lot. Could you please tell them that the rest of the water will no longer You can’t steal your laundry or wash your face.”

Fabi pierced herself in her heart: You don't need to call her here alone to warn her.Don't you just want to be alone with her for a while longer, to let her stare at you like that again, to sink you into her black eyes one more time?Those dark eyes made Fabio feel more dangerous than war.Let us hope that the danger of war outside the wall ends tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so that the more destructive danger of introversion will not occur in time. "Okay, I will definitely convey the words of the deputy priest." Yu Mo smiled slightly. She laughed so much that Fabi was frightened to death, and she figured out what he didn't understand, and comforted him with this smile: It's okay, man, this only shows that you are made of flesh and blood. "If the waterworks don't open within three days, we'll die of drought. It's as dry as this dry grass." Fabio stomped on the withered and whitish winter grass.He found his words a little sour, but he couldn't help it, and he didn't want to talk like that. Yu Mo said, "There used to be a well here, right?" Fabio said: "The snow fell too much that year, and Father Engelmann's colt missed the ground, and the front hoof fell into it. Don't break it. The priest asked Gu to fill the well." Yu Mo said, "Can we dig it out again?" Fabio said: "I don't know. That would be a big deal. If you drink up half of the pool, will the tap water still come?" He warned himself in his heart that this was the last sentence. Start a new line. Yu Mo even heard the self-warning in his heart, smiled, bowed slightly, and said at the same time: "I won't delay you." "If the situation gets worse and the water still doesn't come, I really don't know what to do." Fajing saw himself inexplicably writing a new line to keep Yumo.He hoped that Yumo would take it as his uncontrollable soliloquy, and even though she said goodbye, she still caught the sentence, and then pulled out another round of dialogue. "No. If that's the case, go out to fetch water. When we escaped, we saw a pond, just a little to the north." She said. "Why don't I remember that there is a pond?" He thought, this was the last sentence, no matter what she answered, he would not answer. "I remember." She smiled knowingly again.All men want to stay by her side for a while, let alone such a lonely man.She saw at first glance how lonely Fabi was.No one recognizes him, he is alien to the race that gave birth to him and the race that raised him. Fabio nodded and looked at her.The words stopped talking, but the eyes continued to talk.This is what he didn't realize.Yu Mo turned and walked away.Fabi also found that her back looks good, and she looks good all over. After walking a few steps, Yu Mo stopped again, turned around and said, "We made a bet last night, if the Chinese and foreigners were fighting, which side would you stand on?" Fabi asked, "What do you say?" Yu Mo smiled at him for a while and left. Fabi suddenly thought bitterly: A goblin!After Yu Mo's back disappeared, he told himself not to allow her to seduce him with her big black eyes for even half a second.Is that seduction?Will seduction be so difficult?Although Fabi is a Yangzhou Fabi, and he thinks with a Yangzhou local dialect, after all, he has the passionate and romantic blood of Italians in his body. He has read world literature and drama works left by his parents of Mediterranean ethnicity. people, and seduce them with their deep stories. That night, rain and light snow made the temperature drop several degrees.Father Engelmann, reading in the reading-room next to the library with its fireplace, felt the chill too.The bell tower that was blown up caused air leaks everywhere in the rooms on the second floor. George Chen kept coming to add charcoal, but it was still too cold.When George Chen came to add fuel to the fire again, Engelman said that he could save as much as he could, because the supply of charcoal was not enough, and many elderly patients and patients in the safe zone had frozen to death.He then went back to the bedroom to read at night.In the middle of the night, Father Engman couldn't fall asleep, and wanted to go to the library to pick up a few more books to read. Just as he was on the stairs, he heard a woman's voice in the library.He thought that these women were like sores, which had been stained everywhere without paying attention.He walked to the door of the reading room, and saw Yumo, Whispering, and Hongling gathered by the embers of the fireplace, holding colorful little underwear in their hands, laughing softly while grilling. Even in this place where the walls are covered with holy books and holy images! Father Engelmann's cheek muscles spasmed.He didn't think these women deserved to listen to his venomous accusations, so he called Fabio Adonado from his bedroom. "Fabi, how do you get something like this into my reading room?!" Fabi Adornado had just passed out while taking advantage of the heavy alcohol, and now he yelled while taking advantage of the alcohol: "blasphemy! How dare you come here? Do you know where this is?!" Hong Ling said: "I'm so cold that I have chilblains! Look!" She took Koudan's peeling bare feet out of the shoes and showed them in front of the two priests.Seeing Fabi take a step back as if avoiding the plague, murmuring and giggling happily, Yu Mo bumped her with his elbow.She knew that they had gotten into trouble this time, and she had never seen this gentle old priest act so loudly. "Let's go!" She put away the bra in her hand, her face was burning hot and her spine was cold. "I won't leave! There's a fire here, why must we freeze to death?" Hong Ling said. She turned around and turned her back to the elder and younger priests. She stretched out her bare foot in front of the fireplace, and her feet were still open and closed, as if she was muttering. "If you don't leave here immediately, I will ask all of you to leave the church immediately!" Fabio said. "What kind of request?" Hong Ling's big toe twitched, mischievous and despicable. Yu Mo came up and tugged her: "Stop messing around!" Hong Ling said: "Please let us go out? It's easy! Build a big brazier." "George Chen!" Father Engelman noticed the stretching and shrinking figures at the corner of the stairs.That was George Chen. He was coming here, but he suddenly felt that it was not easy to intervene in the dispute, so he turned around and went downstairs again. "I saw you! George Chen, come here!" George Chen walked over in a hurry.Taking a quick look inside and outside the room, he asked knowingly, "Father hasn't rested yet?" "I told you to turn off the fire, didn't you understand?" Father Engelman pointed to the fireplace. "I'm going to turn off the fire right now." George Chen said. George Chen was a beggar picked up by Father Engelman. He sent him to learn cooking for several months, and when he came back, he changed his foreign name: George. "You've added more charcoal!" said Father Engelmann. Hong Ling raised his eyes and said with a smile: "George is reluctant to freeze my sister and me, right?" George Chen gave her a quick look, which made Father Engelman understand that he had already enjoyed the sweetness of this plump kiln sister.
