Wei Che was on the boat, listening to the noise over there, feeling extremely anxious.
His eyes were filled with worry, and his fingers were clenched into fists at his sides, his knuckles turning white from the strain.
When he thought of the embarrassment and danger Su Huaiyue might face, he could no longer care about anything else.
Although he was blindfolded at this moment, he could not hide the heroic spirit emanating from his body.
He took a deep breath, used his lightness skills, and passed across the water like a white shadow. In the blink of an eye, he was next to Su Huaiyue.
His agile figure and neat movements caused the ladies around him to whisper among themselves.
"Look, whose young master is that? Even with his eyes blindfolded, he's still so handsome!"
"Yes, judging by his skills, he must be an extraordinary person."
"He seemed to be going after the girl who just fell into the water."
Wei Che landed steadily beside Su Huaiyue, breathing heavily, and said to the people around him: "Everyone, this is my sister-in-law. She just accidentally fell into the water. I hope you can forgive me for any offense."
He bowed slightly, being so polite that no one could find any fault with him.
Then he turned to Chuntao and said, "Miss Chuntao, please take us to the place where we can change clothes."
There was a firmness in his tone that brooked no rejection.
Chun Tao was intimidated by his aura, nodded subconsciously, and walked towards the changing area with Wei Che and Su Huaiyue.
Yan Shu looked at the two people walking further and further away, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a fake smile, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes: "Interesting, I clearly heard that the Wei family doesn't like Su Huaiyue. It seems there is something else going on."
He shook his head slightly, turned around and returned to the flower viewing banquet, as if he had put what had just happened behind him.
Jing Zhiwan was left alone on the boat. She was soaked, shivering with cold, and looked extremely miserable.
She looked at the backs of Wei Che and Su Huaiyue as they left, her heart filled with jealousy and unwillingness. Her lips were bitten and blood oozed out.
Naturally, she couldn't go out in this state, so she could only endure the humiliation and ask the boatman for a cloak, which she wrapped tightly around herself, trying to hide her embarrassment.
"Let's go back."
Jing Zhiwan glanced at the boatman rowing the boat nearby and asked, "Did you look carefully?"
Su Huaiyue and Wei Che followed Chuntao to a small courtyard.
Chun Tao pointed in two directions and said, "Young man, please go this way, young lady, please go that way."
Wei Che nodded slightly and reminded Su Huaiyue: "Sister-in-law, remember to dry your hair and be careful not to catch a cold."
Su Huaiyue responded and walked towards the women's changing room.
Su Huaiyue walked into the dressing room and saw the dazzling array of clothes inside. She couldn't help but sigh softly: "There are so many clothes here."
There was a hint of surprise in her eyes. These clothes were extremely exquisite in both material and workmanship. It was obvious that they were specially set up as changing rooms by those rich ladies.
She started to choose from a lot of clothes, and finally, she picked up a plain light blue long skirt and put it on.
The texture of the skirt was soft and very comfortable to wear. She simply tidied her hair and walked out.
On the other side, Wei Che had also changed his clothes.
He changed into a dark blue robe, and the whole person looked more calm and reserved. He was looking at the scenery outside with his back to Su Huaiyue. When he heard footsteps, he slowly turned back.
At this moment, both of them seemed to see the other's high-spirited appearance when they were in the capital.
The Wei Che that Su Huaiyue saw had confidence and determination in his eyes, and his posture was as straight as a pine tree. His innate nobility seemed to have returned to him, just like when he was so dazzling on the bustling streets of the capital, attracting the attention of countless girls.
In Wei Che's eyes, Su Huaiyue was dressed in silk and brocade, with an elegant temperament and a faint smile on her face. Her every move showed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family. She was no longer the woman who was busy running around for the livelihood of the Wei family and wore coarse linen clothes.
It was also at this moment that the ambition that had been buried for a long time in Wei Che's heart suddenly jumped in the dust.
He looked at Su Huaiyue, and a strong impulse surged in his heart. He felt that Su Huaiyue deserved to wear silk clothes and live a glamorous life, instead of working hard like in the past.
A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he secretly made up his mind to let Su Huaiyue live a better life. He wanted to return to the capital, return to the place that once belonged to them, and regain the glory of the Wei family.
Su Huaiyue was also very emotional. She remembered the second half of Wei Che's legendary life that she had heard about in the book.
In the story, Wei Che became a legendary figure. At that time, he must have been as handsome and high-spirited as he is today.
Since I have already appeared at the flower viewing banquet in such a hurry, I naturally cannot leave at will.
The two followed Chuntao's instructions and arrived at the flower viewing banquet venue.
The girls around them had already known that the two were members of the exiled Wei family, but their attitudes were surprisingly gentle.
A rich lady in pink came over with a smile and said, "Miss Su, Master Wei, come over and have some tea with us."
The other daughters also echoed and invited them enthusiastically.
Su Huaiyue was a little confused, but still walked over with Wei Che.
During the conversation, Su Huaiyue learned that when the current emperor was in power, Youzhou would welcome exiled young masters from noble families every few days.
The common people below would be trembling with fear, worried about being affected, but these rich young ladies have long been accustomed to it.
They also knew that most of these exiles were due to the chaos in the court, but everyone knew it tacitly and no one dared to say it out loud, so they just mentioned it briefly.
Su Huaiyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and introduced to everyone: "This is the shop where our Wei family makes a living now - Meiyan Pavilion."
As she spoke, she took out the beauty jar she was carrying and handed it to everyone: "You might as well try it. This beauty cream is very effective."
The young ladies took it curiously, and after trying it out, they showed expressions of surprise on the spot.
"Wow, this beauty cream feels so comfortable on my hands. My skin feels smoother instantly."
"Yes, I think it's good too. Miss Su, please tell us the detailed usage instructions."
The daughters chatted with each other, asked for the address of the beauty pavilion, and showed great interest in the beauty cream.
Wei Che sat aside with Yan Shu and drank tea.
Wei Che looked calm on the surface, but he was secretly calculating in his heart.
He looked at Yan Shu and spoke slowly, "Master Yan, I'm a little curious to see you dressed in men's clothes today."
Yan Shu smiled slightly after hearing this, with a sly glint in his eyes: "It's just a personal preference, Master Wei, there's no need to make a fuss."
Wei Che could tell Yan Shu was trying to fool him, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he said seriously, "Master Yan, the Wei family is just exiled here and can't help the Yan family in any way. I hope Master Yan won't bother with my sister-in-law. Our purpose in coming to Youzhou is very clear: we are here to discuss business and don't want to get involved in the Yan family's affairs."
