Chapter 22: New Clothes

Time turns, summer goes to autumn, and the land of China slowly recedes the green clothes of summer and changes to the sad yellow of autumn.

It was supposed to be a good harvest season, but in the autumn of this year, everything seemed very bleak.

In the courtyard, the leaves of the old tree have turned yellow, and the dead leaves fall with the wind and scatter in the courtyard, adding some color.

Green bamboo sits under the porch, stringing persimmons with cotton rope.

The persimmons were tough and had been peeled beforehand, and the green bamboo tied them to the handles of the persimmons with a rope and strung them together, and she was making persimmons.

Then from the archway came a maidservant.

Green Bamboo looked up and found that it was his friend, Pearl.

Seeing this, she greeted her: "Pearl, why are you here?" ”

It is rare for the two little sisters to get together, and she is naturally infinitely happy now.

"Isn't this a change of season, I'm here to send new clothes to Saburo." Pearl explained, and said with a smile, "It was supposed to be sent by other sisters, but I thought that I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I specially asked for this messenger." ”

"I see." Green Bamboo said, frowning and thinking about something.

Seeing that she did not speak, Pearl asked, "What do you think?" ”

Midoritake shook his head and replied, "Nothing. ”

"Then take us to see San Lang, run to you, I'm tired." Talking to her sisters, Pearl has less scruples.

Wei Jue's courtyard is out of the courtyard, she has spent a lot of time here, she shouted tired, she is really tired, it is not a lie.

When Luzhu heard this, he took her to find Wei Jue.

Wei Jue was actually in the courtyard, and at this time he was stepping on a wooden ladder, hanging a string of persimmons.

Pearl had already seen it, but she still wanted Luzhu to bring her over.

"San Lang, Pearl has brought you clothes."

Lu Zhu's voice made Wei Jue turn his head.

He looked at the two men in front of him, and then at the clothes that Pearl was holding, and answered, "Go to the house first, hang up this string, and I will go over." ”

Hearing this, Green Bamboo beckoned Pearl into the room.

Today, Fifth Uncle Yang gave Wei Jue a holiday, so he was still in the yard at this time.

After going down the wooden ladder, Wei Jue went to wash it first before going to see the pearl.

Pearl sent a cyan straight-sleeved round-necked closed robe, with no patterns on it, and it was very plain. The material of this dress is Huzhou silk, the workmanship is very exquisite, and it feels smooth like water. Such clothes are naturally expensive, and they cannot afford to wear them unless they are noble.

In addition, she sent matching hats, leather belts, and boots, all black, all made of fine cotton.

Such elaborate costumes, Luzhu has only seen it on Wei Chengmou and Wei Xi. Now, seeing that the house has also sent such a set to Wei Jue, she empathizes with her, is very happy, and feels that Wei Jue seems to be about to get through, but Wei Jue is not as optimistic as her.

The furnishings in this room are very simple, on weekdays, Wei Jue sits cross-legged on the ground, and now it is the same, and Pearl is just sitting on the ground on his knees.

"San Lang, this dress was specially arranged by the lady, and I sent it to you."

Listening to Pearl's explanation, Wei Jue looked at the clothes on the plate and asked softly, "Pearl, does Mother have anything else to say?" ”

"The lady said, this dress is newly made, let San Lang give it a try, if there is something wrong, you can take it and change it again." Pearl said while thinking, "Also, the lady said, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, let San Lang you prepare for your life, don't miss the big thing." ”

Event?

Wei Jue listened, and was suspicious.

He pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Mother has said that what is the big deal?" ”

"Nope." Pearl shook her head, "That's the lady's original words, and I don't dare to ask anything else." ”

"Oh."

Wei Jue agreed, thinking, it should be Cui Shi's mouth.

But this casual statement is the most true.

He remembered that his father Wei Chengmou had mentioned that he would take him to meet the assassin of Suzhou on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. That night was naturally a big scene, and his original clothes could not be put on the table, so I thought that this set of clothes was prepared for that night.

But what the big deal was, Wei Jue didn't guess, he only knew that this matter must be related to himself.

I don't know anything about myself, and I can't call the shots!

Wei Jue thought so, and felt very sad in his heart.

At this time, after listening to Pearl's words, Luzhu on the side said: "San Lang, since the lady asked you to try on clothes, why don't you try it now." ”

Wei Jue couldn't bear to refuse her proposal, so she agreed.

He didn't have much clothes on his body, but with the help of Lu Zhu, he quickly put on this new clothes.

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, Wei Jue is already outstanding, and now with this gorgeous costume, it looks like a jade tree is in the wind. Luzhu was originally a person next to him, but now he was stunned when he saw his appearance, not to mention that the pearl had already been fixed.

Seeing that the two of them kept looking at him, Wei Jue thought there was something wrong, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

His words made Lu Zhu wake up, and she hurriedly said, "There's nothing wrong with it, San Lang, what do you think?" ”

As she spoke, her face flushed, which was really a girl's shyness.

"Not on the side." Wei Jue said, touching his waist with both hands, "It's just that this dress seems to be bigger." ”

"Really?" Green Bamboo said and walked over.

When Wei Jue saw it, he stood still and let her see, and sure enough, the dress was indeed one size bigger.

When making this dress, Wei Jue's size had not been measured, and the sewing craftsman also made it according to the guesses of others, and it was inevitable that there would be a difference in size. However, this is a small problem, Luzhu thought about it for a while, and said: "It's really bigger, San Lang, you replace it, I'll help you change it." ”

This courtyard is all controlled by green bamboo, and over time, this little lady knows everything about family affairs.

Wei Jue listened to it and nodded, it was too much trouble to bother outsiders because of such a small problem.

Let Luzhu help her change it, that's the best, after all, she is not an outsider.

"Pearl, I have taken this dress." Wei Jue sat down again and said to Pearl, "You go back and thank my mother for helping me say that I like this dress very much." "The elders give gifts, and the younger generations should be thanked in person. But Wei Jue thought of Cui's attitude towards him, and felt that meeting would only make him unhappy, so he let Pearl do it for him, so it would not be too rude.

Pearl listened and nodded: "I wrote it down, then I'll go back." ”

"Well, you go back, Luzhu, you send her on my behalf."

Wei Jue didn't keep it, he just asked Luzhu to send it, he knew that the two had a good relationship, so he gave them space to talk privately.

————————

At night, Lu Zhu came out at night and saw that the lights in Wei Jue's room were still on.

Curious, she walked over with a lamp.

Pushing open the door, she saw that under the light, Wei Jue was busy at the desk.

Seeing this, she didn't dare to make a sound, and after looking at the meeting, she quietly pushed out again.

When she returned to her bed, she saw that the light was not extinguished, and she had no intention of resting.

It wasn't until the wee hours of the morning, when the lights dimmed, that she fell asleep.
