As we plodded along the rice-fields one morning, after about an hour's walk we came to a wayside booth, where our men stopped for their first snack of food, and some particularly fresh-looking eggs tempted us to join their meal. The salesman proceeded to poach them, and would have added sugar if we had not stopped him. Declining chopsticks, I was provided IS3 The Face of China ch. xiv with a nice little pottery spoon, and my friend took possession of a saucer about the size of a penny (commonly
... used for sauce) for the same purpose.
Long strings of mules passed us, carrying taxes in the shape of small basket-loads of bullion, accompanied by a military escort. The leading mules were gaily decorated with flags, showing that they were on government duty. The road was bad and slippery, and our men soon decided to shorten the day's journey by one-third, which we declined to allow, having already spared their strength by walking for several hours ; we agreed, however, to shorten the stage to a certain extent.
