474 The first test

Outside the window, the original bright sunny day, I don't know when it became cloudy, dark and heavy, as if it was about to collapse, at this time lightning and thunder, a rainstorm was inevitable.

Before the rain, the weather usually becomes depressed, which makes people feel unhappy, however, at this moment, Cui Yufang's mood is gloomy, she snorted coldly, and there is a smile on the corner of her mouth: "What is early, Miss Ben still thinks it's late." ”

Chunmei's eyes lit up, and she immediately realized: "Yes, this rain is good, the heavier it falls, the better, wash away the two bridge piers, look at what the third room is still proud of, can't build a bridge, maybe she won't be able to get married, and I'm worried about her." ”

As he spoke, a rapid sound of rain came, and soon he saw the big raindrops falling to the ground like broken beads, which was a downpour, just a moment's effort, the eaves flowed down like a small waterfall, and the rain washed on the ground, making a loud sound.

The noise of rain, wind, and thunder, these sounds that annoyed Cui Yufang in the past have become the most beautiful music in her ears at the moment, and the irritability and dissatisfaction in her heart are swept away, and her mood is happy.

At this time, a maidservant brought the snack just made in the kitchen, Cui Yufang sat down and enjoyed it happily, halfway through the meal, she was in a good mood and rewarded a piece of spring plum.

The rain outside the house kept falling, Cui Yufang inside the house was comfortable while drinking tea and eating snacks, so comfortable, after enjoying the snacks, she looked up to see that it was still raining endlessly, and suddenly asked: "Chunmei, such a heavy rain, will there be floods?" ”

"If Miss Hui is going to be, it will definitely be, so many rivers flow into the Ling River, and every time it rains, it will flood, this has become a habit."

Very good, Cui Yufang beckoned, and said with an elegant face: "Chunmei, prepare the car." ”

"Miss, spare car? It's raining so hard, where are you going? ”

"Isn't it raining, Miss Ben suddenly wanted to enjoy the rain by the Linghe River." Cui Yufang said with a smile.

said that she wanted to enjoy the rain, but Chunmei didn't understand her young lady's thoughts, it rained so hard, the Ling River would flood, and the young lady was going to watch the bridge pier being washed down and flowing away.

"Understood, the servant will go and prepare immediately."

When Cui Yufang was preparing the carriage here, Lu Shu in the third room looked at the pouring rain outside the window in the embroidery building, with a sad face.

Lu Shu sat and stood for a while, walking around the room, looking at the heavy rain outside the window from time to time, and finally gritted her teeth, turned around and walked out.

"Miss, where are you going with such heavy rain?" The cardinal on the side hurriedly stopped.

"This rain has been raining for almost half an hour, and it hasn't stopped yet" Lu Shu said anxiously: "The Ling River floods as soon as it rains, and the crops by the river were flooded the year before last, no, the young master is in danger, I want to go and see." ”

Cardinal persuaded him: "Don't be afraid, Zheng Gongzi is so shrewd, he will be fine, and besides, the Ah Jun under him is a master, and he is clever and smart, he will not let Zheng Gongzi have an accident, Miss, it is raining so heavily, if he catches a cold, it will not be good." ”

"No, I'm not at ease here, I must go and see it."

The cardinal was willing to let her go, but still stopped in front and persuaded: "Miss, no, it's raining too much, besides, Lang Jun has instructed you not to meet with Zheng Gongzi, even if you are a servant, the big housekeeper will not agree to open the door." ”

Lu Shu is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and said with a cold face when she heard the words: "Sister Hong, if I say go, I will definitely go, if you don't let me go out, I will jump out of the window in a while, and no one can stop me today." ”

Cardinal looked at Lu Shu helplessly, hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered: "My aunt, I'm afraid of you, in this way, you wait for a while, and the slave family will see what the big housekeeper is doing." ”

The big housekeeper Cui Da is the big housekeeper of the third room, he has been by Cui Yuan's side since he was a child, and he is Cui Yuan's absolute confidant, and he is obedient to Cui Yuan, and Cui Yuan's order to him is not to let Zheng Peng meet with Lu Shu, and Cui Da has always faithfully carried it out.

The cardinal really has nothing to do with Lu Shu now, she knows that Lu Shu can do what she says, seeing that good things are coming, if something really happens to Lu Shu, she can't make up for it even if she dies, so it's better to follow her side to protect.

Just accompany the lady to go out for a walk, if you "accidentally" bump into Zheng Peng, the owner will be held accountable, and he will have his own words.

Of course, believe it or not, and how to deal with it, it's up to him.

Lu Shu's face was overjoyed, and she suddenly hugged the arm of the red hand, and said a little pro-ni: "Sister Hong is still the best for Shu'er." ”

A quarter of an hour later, a carriage quietly drove away from the back door of Cui's mansion and soon disappeared into the heavy rain.

On the carriage, the cardinal said with some concern: "Miss, you have to remember the words you promised the slave and maid before leaving, you can only watch from a distance, you can't go to Zheng Gongzi, you also know that there are many people on the construction site, and looking for Zheng Gongzi on a rainy day with the body of Miss's daughter, it will not have a good impact on the news." ”

Lu Shu nodded a little gratefully and said, "I know, I just want to see if the young master is okay, and I'll be satisfied with it at a glance." ”

What the cardinal said, Lu Shu knew that she didn't say a word, it was her eldest father Cui Yuan, if Cui Yuan knew that the cardinal disobeyed his order, he would be fine, with Cui Yuan's temper, he would never spare the cardinal, this is the reason why Lu Shu agreed very obediently.

The rain was much lighter than just now, but it was still falling, and looking out of the window of the carriage, there was a lot of water on the road, and the cardinals who were driving the carriage were driven by memory and experience, and they were struggling to move forward on the road.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, the cardinal turned back to Lu Shu and said, "Miss, there is a moon viewing pavilion by the Ling River, not far from the bridge construction site, why don't we go somewhere and have a place to shelter from the rain, okay?" ”

"Okay, it's all up to Sister Hong."

The cardinal smiled bitterly when he heard this, if he had listened to himself, he would not have to come out in the rain.

Not long after, the carriage stopped, and the cardinal put on a cloak for Lu Shu, opened an oil umbrella, and carefully helped Lu Shu out of the carriage and took her to the Moon Viewing Pavilion.

It should be noon now, but the sky is a little dark, giving people the feeling that it is evening, the dark clouds in the sky have not dispersed, there may be rain for a while, Lu Shu boarded the moon pavilion located at a high place, and looked in the direction of the construction site for the first time.

The rain was a bit heavy, but I could faintly see that the very eye-catching hanger had fallen and scattered on the ground, and there was a lot of water on the ground, and there was no one on the construction site, so they should all hide in the hut to avoid the rain.

When turning his gaze to the Ling River, the worry in Lu Shu's eyes deepened, the river water swelled, it was almost to the river embankment, judging from the water potential upstream, the flood will increase in a while, there are still many debris in the river, and even a tree is full of trees, which should be washed into the river from the mountain by the flood, and the flood and debris continue to wash the two bridge piers that stand in the river.

The two piers looked a little lonely compared to before, and the shelves around the piers were erected before, but now they don't see anything, and they should have been washed away by the flood.

More than 20 zhang of the Ling River, the flood was raging, and it rushed again and again to hit the things in front of it, and in the torrent, it felt as if the two bridge piers would be washed away at any time.

Lu Shu stared at the two bridge piers that were floating in the wind and rain, so nervous that she couldn't speak, and could only keep praying in her heart.

"Miss, someone is coming this way, hey, it's not good, it seems to be Miss Yufang's carriage in the bungalow." Cardinal said suddenly nervously.
