CHAPTER XX
Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, their foreheads, shoulders, and hair were wet, and the oil-paper umbrella seemed to be gone, and the rain was pouring down, and the two looked up, oh! No! I don't know when the oil-paper umbrella was broken, it was good to break one place, but it was broken in several places, and the whole oil-paper umbrella seemed to have no good place to start.
The two of them panicked and approached under the eaves on both sides of the street, and went east, where there were all households, there were no shops, and the sky was gloomy, and every house was locked with their doors. Hua Rong and Hua Lu could only hide under the eaves of the horizontal roof trembling with their wet clothes.
"Miss, are you alright?" Hua Lu asked nervously, not caring about being soaked most of her body, so she helped Hua Rong wipe the rain first, "Miss, you all complain about the slaves, you were in a hurry when you came, and you didn't even notice the quality of the umbrella, so you got drenched in the rain." ”
Skimming over the broken oil-paper umbrella that was placed next to the stone, Hua Lu remembered that before leaving, when he grabbed an umbrella and ran away, the old housekeeper chased him out, muttering something inexplicably, looking very anxious. I and the young lady have gone far away, and I didn't hear clearly, thinking that I was just worried that they would come back late, so I replied with two sentences and waved my hand......
"It's okay..."Hua Rong took off the veil from her face, it was already soaked, and she didn't have to wear it anymore when she saw that there was no one left and right. While wiping the wet area with a handkerchief, he comforted Hua Lu and said, "What is a little rain, don't forget how much rain we had when we were in Jiangnan."
"But that's different." Hua Lu's eyes were red with guilt, "Miss, how can the rain in Jiangnan be compared to that in Chang'an?" Where is the rain dripping, where is it so heavy as here? It's a bang, and it hurts to hit my body. Moreover, Miss, you are weak, how can you get drenched in the rain, it's all ...... blame."
Hua Rong hurriedly interrupted Hua Lu's words, and let her continue, it is estimated that she will feel guilty until tomorrow, she doesn't want to listen to her say some self-reproaching words here all the time. Hua Rong picked up Hua Lu's round little face, and burst out laughing: "You won't use the rouge we bought in the Jiangnan grocery store today, right?"
Hua Lulen was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?" Miss, what's wrong? ”
Hua Rong waved her hand, "No, it's nothing." But seeing Hua Lu's appearance, he couldn't help laughing, "Don't you know that the box of rouge bought in the Jiangnan grocery store is not waterproof?" Look at you, your makeup has been spent like a big cat! ”
"What?!" Hua Lu exclaimed, and hurriedly touched her face, but she couldn't see it and didn't dare to touch it indiscriminately, for fear that the more she touched it, the more flowers she would spend, so anxious that Hua Lu was at a loss, crying with a sad face, "Miss, is it really a big flower?" Can you still see people? ”
Hua Rong's smiling flower branches trembled, and it took a while to stabilize, "Seeing people... Well... It's a little difficult, I'm afraid... It's cute, though. ”
"Miss! How can you laugh, slaves... Can't even see anyone?! Shame on the dead! Hua Lu wanted to cry without tears and lifted the outer layer of her skirt and covered her head directly, "The slave and maid are gone, and the slave and maid go back like this, and no one will see them." ”
"Alright." Hua Rong gently and softly took off the skirt that Hua Lu covered her head, "How can a girl lift up her skirt?" ”
"But..."
"No, but, where do you see on this street? Don't worry, no one can see it, if anyone dares to see it, I'll poke his eyes blind at your young lady, okay? Hua Rong said seriously, without the slightest sense of joking, as if he would really do that.
Hua Lu's mood slowly stabilized, and when she looked left and right, she was indeed empty.
"Well, I've said it all, no one."
Hua Lu let out a "hmm", breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly remembered something, and shouted: "Miss, the slave obviously remembered that this morning I used the rouge that I bought with you last time, not the one from the Jiangnan grocery store!"
"Oh? Is it? Hua Rong laughed a few times, and turned her head unnaturally, "Maybe you're mistaken." ”
Hua Lu thought hard and said firmly: "Impossible! The slave is not mistaken, it is indeed the rouge of Lanxiang Pavilion, and it was the young lady who was playing tricks on the slave just now! At the end of the day, there was anger in his tone.
"Alright." Hua Rong apologically brushed away a few strands of hair in front of Hua Lu's forehead, "Okay, I'm sorry, I'm kidding, who made you blame yourself there, I just want to divert your attention." ”
"But..."Hua Lu's eyes instantly turned red again, the anger in her heart suddenly disappeared, and the guilt of self-blame came back to her heart, "It's true that the slave maid is not doing well, the young lady's body is not good, if it rains..."
"Look at you." Hua Rong sighed, "I'm starting to blame myself again, although my body is weaker, but I have also practiced some kung fu over the years, and I am strong enough." Don't blame yourself, it's okay. ”
Hua Lu said "um", full of worry and it was difficult to say it again.
Hua Rong sighed at the heavy rain, "Looking at this rain, it is estimated that it will not stop for a while and a half, but how... Let's wait here, the old housekeeper said, the sky in Chang'an is changeable, cloudy and sunny, maybe it will stop in a while. ”
Hua Lu was stunned when she heard this, "How can Miss contradict each other when she speaks?" One will say that the rain will not stop, and the other will say that the rain will stop for a while, and the slave maid will not understand. ”
Hua Rong coughed twice and sorted out her thoughts, "Hmm... I mean, looking at the situation of this rain, it is estimated that there is only so much rain in the sky, and it is so heavy that it will be over in a while. ”
"Not necessarily."
As soon as Hua Rong's words fell, he heard a familiar and gentle voice, "Judging from the following, this rain is estimated to be small." ”
Hua Rong was stunned, a blue-green costume appeared in front of her, and when she looked up, she saw a cheek as warm as jade, "Young Master Huainan?!" ”
Xiang Ziyu looked at Hua Rong in a daze, Hua Rong who did not wear a face, as he expected, how could those smart eyes be an ordinary face? A smile and a smile seem to be able to tug at his heartstrings.
Hua Rong just called out, then remembered something, and reached out to cover her cheeks in a panic, looking around for the veil that she didn't know where she had put because it was soaking wet, and Hua Lu next to her was so anxious that she also looked for it.
Since ancient times, women from large families should not show their cheeks to strange men before leaving the cabinet, this kind of behavior is against etiquette, and even some women accidentally marry this man before they are seen by strange men. She was already bold to sneak out to sell fan noodles, but now she was panicked when a man saw her face, but the veil could not be found.
