Indifference and pique swung Ryder towards a geisha girl, but a trace of irritation lingered and he found her, "You likee plink gleisha?" singularly witless. He'd tell McLean just how darned captivating his outfit was, he promised himself. And then he caught sight of a familiar pair of gray eyes smiling over the white veil of an odalisque.
And when he saw Cocky, one day, perched and voluble, on the twisted fingers of Kwaque's left hand, Ah Moy discovered such instant distaste for the bird that not even eighteen shillings, coupled with possession of Cocky and possible contact, had any value to him. "You likee him? You wanchee?" he proffered. "Changee for changee!"
A slight laugh, that to the children seemed demoniacal, followed. "See!" said Wan Lee. "Evil Spillet he likee Chinee; try talkee him." The Pirates looked at Wan Lee, not without a certain envy of this manifest favoritism.
Heyst wondered at the scrupulosity of a man who was about to abandon him; for he was not surprised to hear Wang conclude the account of his stewardship with the words: "I go now." "Oh! You go now?" said Heyst, leaning back, his book on his knees. "Yes. Me no likee. One man, two man, three man no can do! Me go now."
Knapp, who had planned to spend the rest of the winter at Point Hope, would get a guide and a team here and turn north after some days' rest, while I would turn south. Roxy was impatient to return to Bettles. "Me no likee this country," was all that could be got out of him.
Ching take you have cup flesh tea, and quite well d'leckly. You not likee execution?" I shook my head. "Velly good job cut allee head off. No go killee killee, burn ship no more." "We're not used to seeing such things," I said weakly, as I supported Barkins to keep him from slipping to the ground. "You no go see execution when Queen Victolia cut off bad men's head?" I shook my head.
When you politely decline these, the courtly one most likely says, "You no likee tea and seeds then have whiskysoda."
"You both likee more?" said Ching blandly. "No!" they cried so unanimously that it was like one voice; and in spite of my own disgust and unpleasant sensations I felt as if I must laugh at them. "Oh, mawkish morsels!" muttered Barkins. "You feel you have 'nuff?" said Ching, smiling. "Oh no. Loas' suck-pig come soon. You eat velly much more." "Not if I know it," whispered Smith to me.
"Mist' Stellin' heap velly nice man," he said, with gentle condescension; "all same he no sabe shoot. By 'm by he come home, he heap likee my little flied looster." He held his "little rooster" rigidly erect by its elongated legs, and patiently picked the pin-feathers from its back.
"Well, I have been too busy and anxious to think about eating and drinking," he said; "but I suppose I am very hungry too. Here, my lad, pass that basket along, and serve out the provisions." "You likee Ching serve out plovisions?" Mr Brooke frowned, and the Chinaman shrank away.
