Chapter Fifty-Eight: Returning Home
The rain rained heavily from morning to afternoon, and the majestic momentum did not seem to tire at all.
The coachmen and servants of the Lu family waited outside the palace gate and looked forward to it, and finally waited until the next court, only to see the ministers coming out of the left side of the noon gate one after another, but there was no Lu Yushi.
The Lu family waited a little anxiously, stood beside the car in the rain and stood on tiptoe for a long time, and finally saw a familiar figure coming from a distance alone, and hurriedly held an oil-paper umbrella to welcome the palace gate.
"The master is out."
The little guy diligently propped the umbrella above Lu Yushi's head, and at the same time opened the curtain of the car.
Lu Yushi's official robe was already soaked from heavy rain, wrapped tightly around his body, and the color became darker.
"Let's go back."
His face was a little tired, and he commanded lightly.
…………
"Isn't this a leak?"
Cai Wei ran to the bottom of the corridor in three steps and two steps, and picked the hat first. Then he took off his coat and shook the water, while muttering quietly.
"How did you get back?"
Pu Jia in the room heard her voice, opened the curtain slightly, and asked.
"Miss's shoes are wet, I'll come back and get her a pair of change."
Cai Wei replied crisply and loudly, put away the robe, and entered the house with a smile and a curtain.
Pu Jia, who was sitting on the couch embroidering handkerchief, listened, so she gently put down the work in her hand, got up and rummaged through the box.
"It's raining weirdly annoyingly today, and it hasn't stopped from morning till night."
Pu Jia squatted on the ground, shaking her head and sighing while rummaging through the cabinets.
"Just these shoes made of soot satin, with thick bottoms. I have to take the bipedal clothes again, I'm afraid it's soaked inside and out. ”
She took out a pair of soot satin beaded shoes from the box, and found a pair of white brocade dark pattern foot clothes, and turned around to hand them to Cai Wei.
Who knew that Cai Wei didn't take it, just looked at her grinning, and the corners of her forehead were still sticking to wet bangs.
"Guess what I got back."
She saw Pu Jia in front of her looking at her with puzzled eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little proud on her face, so she pretended to mysteriously clench her hand into a fist and stretched it out in front of Pu Jia's eyes.
Pu Jia smacked her lightly: "You have to be naughty!" ”
Cai Wei grinned and spread out her palms—only to see that there was a small round thing in her white jade palm, which was actually a small snail.
"You're sharp-eyed, and you've picked up this little thing before the rain has stopped."
Pu Jia laughed, glanced at her lightly out of the corner of her eye, took the basket and put the shoes and footwear into it, and carefully covered it with an oilcloth.
"Hurry up and send the shoes to the young lady, carefully freeze your feet."
Pu Jia handed the basket to Cai Wei and admonished.
Cai Wei felt bored, so she pouted, and put the little snail on the small table on the couch casually, and held the basket in her arms.
"Then I'll go."
She held the basket in one hand, opened the curtain with the other, and turned her head to Pu Jia.
"Let's go."
Seeing this, Pu Jia smiled and waved at her.
Cai Wei went out of the house, still putting on the hat and the palm leaf robe, putting the basket in her arms and carrying it, and ran into the main courtyard in the rain.
"You girl, what are you running around?"
In the heavy rain, there was a slightly annoyed reprimand from the young man.
But it turned out that Cai Wei was running with her head down all the way, and she was colliding with the fifth young master Lu Qi who was walking diagonally opposite.
Lu Wu's hat was knocked down, so the rain was dense at this time, and he couldn't open his eyes in a daze.
When Cai Wei saw that she accidentally collided with her master, she was immediately flustered, and she was about to kneel down in a daze.
The little guy behind Lu Wu recognized her, and hurriedly rescued: "Isn't this Sister Caiwei in Miss's house, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Lu Wu wiped his face, and after a closer look, it was Caiwei, the maid in his sister's house, and seeing that she was trembling violently, he was also a little angry, slowed down his tone and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'm going to the main courtyard and deliver shoes to the young lady."
Seeing that Lu Wu didn't look like he was going to blame, Cai Wei's flustered heart also relaxed a little, and she bowed her head and replied.
"I'm about to go to the main courtyard too, let's go together."
Lu Wu looked at the basket that Cai Wei was holding in his arms, sighed, and didn't bother to wear the hat that had fallen into the stagnant water, so he took the lead in the rain and walked towards the main courtyard.
