Chapter 5: Summer Nights

On summer nights, the breeze is very comfortable.

In the courtyard, there was no sound except the cicadas on the trees.

Sitting under the porch, Wei Jue sat under the porch, holding a book and reading, the only hobby he can continue today.

Lu Zhu was by his side as usual, but this night, her mind was all attracted by the bustle outside the wall, it was the teacher invited by the Cui family.

Cui's very much values his niece, every time the Cui family's lady visits, she has to use all her heart, bit by bit to do her best, and now the musicians invited are naturally the best in Gusu City.

Wei Jue noticed the strangeness of Green Bamboo, and while flipping through the book, he said, "Green Bamboo, you go outside and have a look." ”

"Hmm."

Lu Zhu agreed when she heard the joy, but soon the joy on her face darkened again: "San Lang, aren't you going?" ”

"No, I don't understand that, you can go and see." Wei Jue had also watched a few scenes before, but he really couldn't enter the door, and this place was different from before, and the play was even more different, he knew that he was two pounds, so he didn't want to join in the fun.

When Luzhu heard this, he wanted to go but didn't want to go, and he was in a dilemma.

Wei Jue saw her thoughts, smiled and said, "Go quickly, I'll wait for you to come back and tell me what you're singing." ”

"Well, San Lang, when I come back, I will definitely talk to you."

Wei Jue said this, and Luzhu felt better, and after that, she left this side courtyard.

Wei Jue sat alone in the courtyard, and there was not much to say, and Luzhu was looking for the excitement, so there were naturally more things.

She was familiar with this Wei Mansion, and after a few turns, she came to the place where the stage was placed.

Now all over the house, except for the servants on duty, most of the others are gathered here. At this time, the intentions of the performance on the field are naturally enjoyable to watch off the field. Those servants of the guard house watched the performance on the stage, and shouted from time to time, it was really a lively scene.

Green Bamboo was standing at the edge of the crowd, looking intently, but suddenly she heard someone calling for her.

"Green Bamboo!"

When she heard this, she searched the crowd for a while, and found that it was the little sister who entered the Wei Mansion with her, Pearl.

This pearl is in Mrs. Cui's room, and the degree of food and clothing is very different from that of Luzhu, she squeezed through the crowd and walked to Luzhu, and the two stood together, as if they were master and servant.

"Luzhu, where is your pretty Saburo?"

The pretty Saburo that Pearl said is Wei Jue, just because he is handsome, quite a bit of a boy and a girl, so the maidservants in this house call him so in private.

"Saburo is still in the yard." Luzhu said truthfully, this book is not full of anything.

Pearl nodded, and said, "Luzhu, will you always guard him in the future?" ”

"Hmm." Midoritake nodded slightly, she had spoken to Pearl many times about this.

"But he will leave the Wei Mansion after all, and now that he is like this, if he doesn't have the help of the Wei Mansion, I am afraid it will be even more difficult for you in the future."

Pearl and Luzhu grew up in the Wei Mansion since childhood, and she didn't want to be her childhood playmate, and she would have a hard life in the future, so she said: "Why don't I try to talk to Madame, maybe I can let you go to another room." ”

Luzhu heard the words and did not speak.

When Pearl saw it, he said: "Luzhu, people always have to eat, while there is still a way, you can think about it again." ”

"Pearl, I know you mean well, but I'm fine now, I'm willing to guard him." Saying that, Luzhu shook her head, she had a relationship with Wei Jue, and she was reluctant after all.

"Hey, that's it, I hope you can get your way."

The matter of Luzhu and Wei Jue, the two said in private, and Pearl knew.

This matter is about the thoughts of her daughter's family, Lu Zhu's cheeks turned red when she heard this, and she changed the topic: "Okay, let's watch the play, it's rare to see the dance scene of Tianle Fang, I don't want to miss it." Then, the minds of the two turned to the stage, as the girl always does, and the melancholy just now quickly dissipated.

In front of the crowd, sitting under the stage were the Cui family and the Cui family lady who came to live here.

"Wei'er, do you like this play?"

The Cui family's maiden's name is Cui Lingwei, and Cui's Wei'er is her nickname.

On the stage, two exaggeratedly dressed actors were performing burlesque, but Cui Lingwei was not interested in this, and said with some interest: "Auntie's choice is naturally good, but Wei'er loves to dance more." ”

Cui Shi knows the heart of his niece, so he has this question.

Now after listening to Cui Lingwei's words, she said again: "Wei'er, don't worry, the next one, my aunt thinks you will like it." ”

"Oh?" Cui Lingwei frowned when she heard this, and asked, "Auntie, tell me quickly, which one is it?" ”

"Wei'er, you wait patiently, when the drama starts, you will naturally know."

Cui Shi sold a pass, and then she commanded a few words to the left and right. Soon, a maid moved to the backstage, and the scene on stage ended in a hurry.

This is certainly disappointing, but the servant who watched the play did not dare to complain, after all, there is a difference between master and servant.

Taking advantage of the break, Cui Lingwei suddenly asked, "Auntie, why don't you see my brother Sanlang?" Naturally, she said Wei Jue.

Cui Shi was stunned when he heard this, and said in amazement: "Wei'er, why did you suddenly think of him?" ”

"Auntie, the two elder brothers of the Wei family, I have seen them, but the younger brother of Saburo has never been masked. I thought that I would never see him, and I always owed him a fee, could my aunt call him? After Cui Lingwei answered, her eyes looked at her aunt.

What she said was reasonable, but Cui's heart didn't like Wei Jue, so he didn't want to do it: "Wei'er, he was born lowly, so you don't want to see it." ”

"Auntie can't do what Wei'er wants?" Seeing that Cui's was not complimentary, Cui Lingwei played a little sex, "That's it, it's just that Wei'er feels tired and wants to go down and rest." With that, she looked tired.

This Cui Lingwei is the pearl of the Cui family, and seeing that she is playing tricks, Cui had no choice but to say: "Since Wei'er really wants to see him, how can my aunt not agree, I will let someone call him over." ”

Then she gave a few more commands, and one of the servants withdrew.

Cui Lingwei saw it and smiled, she put away her sleepiness and cheered up again.

In the partial courtyard, Wei Jue was still sitting alone under the moon, reading leisurely, quite comfortable, but this self-satisfaction was finally broken. He sat down on the porch, just in time to see the archway, and when someone else suddenly came in, he closed the scroll in his hand.

"San Lang, Madame called you over." The maid who passed the word was not slow to treat Wei Jue because of his low status, and was very polite.

When Wei Jue heard this, he felt strange, but he still agreed: "Okay, I know, and wait a minute, I'll go with you when I clean up." ”

Now that Luzhu is not in the courtyard, he has to do the cleaning up alone. However, it was just a chair, a book, and a pot of tea, and he soon cleaned it up.

Then he went back to his bedroom, took off his half-arm shirt, and replaced it with the blue and white shirt, the only thing he could do on the table. As soon as he changed into this clothes, he changed from a handyman to a poor scholar.

Back in the courtyard, Wei Jue said to the maid who had been waiting for a long time: "You lead the way and take me to see my mother." ”

The maid who had come to call him nodded when she heard this, turned around and walked towards the arch, and Wei Jue followed her and left the side courtyard.

After the two left, the small courtyard returned to silence, and only the screams of the acquaintance continued.
