Wang Can took people to the Academy of Sciences, but it did not cause a sensation.
The first time they came, both the craftsman and the apprentice felt excited, but after several consecutive visits they lost interest.
Wang Can entered the Academy of Sciences and headed towards where Cai Ya and Huang Yueying lived.
In the yard, Cai Ya was actually learning to be a girl, which was surprising. Huang Yueying was concentrating on tinkering with weird things and didn't pay attention to what was going on around her.
At this time, a maid came over, but Huang Yueying did not notice it.
Cai Ya asked Mo Yan to find the maid to serve the two of them. After all, they both came from big families. It was impossible for them to do everything by themselves and they needed someone to help.
"Miss Cai, the King of Shu is here and is outside the courtyard."
The maid's voice was very soft, but in Cai Ya's ears it was like a thunderclap.
"Ah!! Is he here?"
Cai Ya's butt seemed to have been pricked by a needle. She stood up suddenly and seemed a little at a loss. However, she quickly inhaled and exhaled to calm down her excitement. Huang Yueying was awakened by Cai Ya's voice, raised her head and said: "
Auntie, everyone is here, but you haven’t gone to greet them yet. Now that the King of Shu is here, you have a chance to show off your achievements during this period."
After finishing speaking, Huang Yueying glanced at Cai Ya jokingly.
Cai Ya scolded: "Damn girl, I'm looking for a beating!"
After finishing speaking, Cai Ya and her maidservant walked out together and welcomed Wang Can into the courtyard.
After Wang Can walked in, Huang Yueying cupped her hands and said, "Huang Shuo has met the King of Shu!"
After Cai Ya sat down, she asked: "Mr. Wang, do you have anything to do with me and Yueying when you come to the Academy of Sciences?" While speaking, Cai Ya stared at Wang Can, and the expectant look in her eyes made Wang Can feel a little uncomfortable.
At ease.
Wang Can waved his hand to the attendants next to him and asked them to leave.
In the courtyard, only Wang Can, Huang Yueying and Cai Ya were left.
Seeing this, Huang Yueying also put down the objects in her hands, looked up at Wang Can, and waited for Wang Can to speak.
Wang Can said: "You have been in Chengdu for a while. Even if your family members know that you live in Chengdu, they will inevitably miss you. I am here..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cai Ya interrupted: "King Shu, do you want to send us back?"
Not only the tone, but also the title has changed.
Huang Yueying also followed the drumbeat in her heart and became nervous.
Wang Can shook his head and said: "Don't be anxious, wait until I finish speaking. I have already said that as long as you are willing to stay in Chengdu, even if Cai Mao comes in person, I will not let you go."
At this moment, Cai Ya's heart dropped.
She glanced at Wang Can faintly and said, "In that case, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Wang Can was speechless for a while. What is the little girl anxious about?
Wang Can continued: "I'm here to tell you that I'm going to Jingzhou this time. I may have a chance to meet Cai Mao and Huang Chengyan. They haven't seen you for a long time, and they will inevitably miss you, so I came to ask you.
Let’s find out now whether the two of them want to write a letter home!”
After Cai Ya heard this, her pretty cheeks turned red with shame.
Huang Yueying frowned and asked: "King of Shu, my dear, what are you doing in Jingzhou?"
Wang Can shook his head and did not answer.
Cai Ya said excitedly: "Master Wang, why don't I go back to Jingzhou with you, and then you take me back to Chengdu with you, what do you think?"
"not good!"
Wang Can didn't give any face at all and refused: "Going to Jingzhou is very dangerous, so you'd better not go."
Cai Ya raised her head and said loudly: "I am very familiar with Jingzhou, and it will be much more convenient for you to do things in Jingzhou with me leading the way. No matter what you do, it will go more smoothly, why not?"
Wang Can shook his head and said: "If you want to go back by yourself, you can go back alone, I won't take you there."
Wang Can had something to do when he went to Jingzhou. It would be too inconvenient if he brought a girl with him.
Cai Ya's pretty face was full of disappointment and she sighed, "Okay, I won't go. Just wait a moment and I'll write a letter home right away. When you arrive in Jingzhou, I'll send someone to send it to my eldest brother."
"Um!"
Wang Can hummed and sat in the yard waiting.
Huang Yueying also stood up and entered the house with Cai Ya, preparing to write a letter home. Both she and Cai Ya ran away from home. After a long time, they always had to write to their families to report that they were safe.
Huang Yueying sat next to Cai Ya and whispered: "Auntie, aren't you very disappointed that you didn't go with the King of Shu?"
Cai Ya stared at Huang Yueying and shouted: "Talk too much!"
"Oh, stop talking, I can't say it!" Huang Yueying joked and started writing.
After the two wrote their letters in the house, they returned to the yard. Huang Yueying handed the letter into Wang Can's hands and said with a smile: "Thank you, King Shu!"
Wang Can nodded in greeting, took the letters from Huang Yueying and Cai Ya, and said, "In that case, I will take my leave."
After finishing speaking, Wang Can turned around and walked out of the yard.
Seeing this, Huang Yueying quickly winked at Cai Ya, very anxious.
When Wang Can took several steps and stepped out of the yard with one foot, Cai Ya gritted her teeth and shouted: "King Shu, please wait a moment."
She ran back to the house quickly and ran out with something wrapped in silk.
Cai Ya walked up to Wang Can and said, "Here you go!"
Regardless of whether Wang Can was willing to accept it or not, Cai Ya handed the items directly to Wang Can and then ran back to the house as fast as possible. Huang Yueying put away the items in her hands and did not leave them in the yard.
Wang Can froze on the spot, confused by the scene in front of him.
Which song is this sung from?
Dian Wei came over and asked: "My lord, what is that in your hand? Why don't you take it apart and take a look?"
Wang Can shouted: "This is for me, not for you, what are you looking at?"
Dian Wei chuckled and said loudly: "Let's go!"
The group of people hurried out of the courtyard, left the Academy of Sciences and returned to the palace.
In the bedroom, Huang Yueying smiled and said: "Auntie, you spent all your time on it, and now that you have achieved your wish, do you think he will wear it on your feet?"
Cai Ya curled her lips and said, "You ask me, how do I know?"
However, there was a look of expectation in her eyes.
In the carriage on the way back, Wang Can untied the rope that tied the package, then peeled away the silk of the package layer by layer, and finally saw the innermost items.
cloth shoes!
A pair of mille-layer fabric shoes!
This thing is very common. Many ordinary people make their own shoes and wear them. Moreover, the thousand-layer cloth shoes are also durable, comfortable and durable. It’s just that the thousand-layer cloth shoes in Wang Can’s hand look very rough, and he is not experienced enough.
Made by a professional, it looks like a novice’s mille-feuille cloth shoes.
Not only that, some blood stains can also be seen vaguely in the needlework on the soles.
It's obvious that this is Cai Ya's masterpiece.
In fact, a pair of thousand-layer soles may seem simple, but it takes at least more than two thousand stitches to make a pair of thousand-layer cloth shoes. Just imagine, Cai Ya, a lady from a big family who has no clothes to put on but food to eat, can do it for Wang Can
Such a pair of shoes really showed a lot of determination, which made Wang Can feel sour and warm in his heart.
Wang Can was filled with emotion at this scene.
He held the thousand-layer cloth shoes in his hand, as if he saw Cai Ya making shoes under an oil lamp.
"What a silly girl!"
Wang Can murmured softly in his mouth, took off his shoes again, tried on the new thousand-layer cloth shoes, found that they fit just right, and then wrapped them up.
