Fourth Master in Fujian, must have experienced the greatest malice from the climate. He was so willful that he wanted to return to the Capital immediately!
At first, it was unbearably hot, and then, shortly after arriving in Fuzhou, he encountered incessant rain. And now... well, it hadn't stopped for eight days.
After discussing matters with his officials, Fourth Master sat in his study wearing only his underwear and a thin unlined robe, fanning himself: "At last, I've come to know the weather of Fujian!"
"Oh, exactly, just the other day I washed some clothes, and today they're still as wet as can be. In this summer heat, they simply won't dry. I'm running out of clothes to wear, and I didn't pack lightly either," Su Peisheng said with a troubled face.
He had washed his underwear, but they hadn't dried, and in his hurry that morning, he had put them on wet...
Not to mention how uncomfortable it had been. These past few days, he felt he'd never once been dry!
