As soon as it was dark, it rained lightly, the mountain road became more and more difficult to walk, the horse's hooves slipped from time to time, and Luo Sheng, who had just walked back from Beishui Bend, had to get off the horse and start to walk.

The entourage put on his cloak to protect him from the cold, and said: "Young master, it will take an hour to go back to the house this time, you think we might as well find a place to live for a night, this rain is going to get heavier and heavier, and if it gets darker, there will be no way to go, but I am afraid that when I go out, the city gate will be closed." ”

Luo Sheng looked up at the sky, frowned, and said, "Walking out of this mountain, is there a place to live outside?" ”

The entourage thought for a while and nodded: "The little one remembers that there is an inn, and the little one went to do some things before." "Then you go." Luo Sheng asked his entourage to take two more people to set off first, while he and the rest of the people walked slowly.

After crossing a small hill, you can see the city gate in the distance, but the distance is still far away, Luo Sheng ordered his subordinates to speed up their feet, and they must rush down the mountain before the rain falls.

The person walking in front suddenly stopped and said loudly: "Young master, there is a carriage parked in front, and there seems to be someone." ”

Luo Sheng's heart tightened, how could there be a carriage at such a late hour?

With curiosity and doubt in his heart, he stepped forward.

The rain gradually became heavier, Luo Sheng walked to the front of the carriage and saw a woman pushing the wheels hard, apparently the carriage was stuck in the mud.

"Girl, why are you still in the mountains so late?" Although Luo Sheng has pity in his heart, it is really not normal for a woman to appear in this kind of place late at night.

Caiju looked up at him and wiped the rain from her face. Fu said: "It's in the way of the son, I'm really sorry, my young lady came to visit my mother." As a result, I forgot the hour for a while, and was about to go back, but it rained again, and the wheels of the carriage got stuck in a mud puddle. ”

Luo Sheng saw that she was wet and covered with mud, so he asked the entourage behind him to help carry the carriage.

"Caiju, you tell them all to step down. I'll come down and wait. A gentle voice came from inside the car.

Luo Sheng was stunned and asked, "Is it your lady in the car?" ”

Cai Ju bowed her head and said apologetically: "Please also ask for your understanding." Our young lady is thin-skinned—"

It's not easy for the daughter's family to show up, especially the ladies are beautiful, not to mention that it's so late now, and it should be avoided suspicion.

Luo Sheng then asked everyone to take a few steps back. Wait for a white suit to get out of the car. After facing away from the crowd, he asked people to step forward and push the cart.

Taking advantage of the efforts of the subordinates to push the carriage, he still politely stepped forward to greet Ling Hui.

"I don't know which lady it is, why is she wandering in this mountain range so late? Why didn't he bring a few entourages with him, it was inconvenient for his daughter's family to travel, and it was too unsafe to come out alone. ”

Ling Hui turned her back to him and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your concern, it's just that my mother has just died." My family has set up a family affair for me again, and I am filled with joy and sorrow. He wanted to speak to his mother, but he didn't bring anyone up.

I thought I could go back early, but I didn't expect to forget the hour, so I was trapped in the mountains. ”

Luo Sheng understood very well, "It's so late, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the girl to go back alone, since I met it, I happen to be going back to the city, so it's better to go on the road with the girl, and we can take care of each other." ”

Before Ling Hui could speak, Caiju rejoiced: "Is it really okay?" It's so good, the maid was worried that she was going to die here tonight, but fortunately she met Childe. ”

Ling Hui said with a look of embarrassment: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate." ”

Cai Ju turned around and persuaded: "Second Miss, it's all this time, no matter how much you worry about it, but you can't even go back to the Ling Mansion, and I don't know what the old lady and the old lady are worried about now."

The maid had already said that he wanted to bring people, but you listened to the words of the eldest lady and said that you don't need to bring an entourage. You are the second lady of the Ling Mansion, how can you go out without bringing an entourage, the eldest lady is clearly just-"

"Okay, what nonsense." Ling Hui said angrily.

Cai Ju stuck out her tongue, "Don't talk about it, it's just that the second lady should stop being stubborn, this deep mountain and old forest, if you meet a gangster, how good is it, let's go with this son." ”

Luo Sheng heard the conversation between the two clearly, his face was stunned, and he asked, "Are you the second lady of the Ling Mansion?" ”

Ling Hui turned around at this time, lowering her eyebrows: "Exactly, I don't know what to call the son?" ”

Luo Sheng looked at the well-behaved and docile daughter in front of him, and was very puzzled in his heart, he had heard a lot of rumors about Ling Hui, how could he see the latter, it seemed to be a little different from the rumors.

But doubts are doubts, and I can't help but sigh secretly in my heart, it is really fate, otherwise how could I meet here.

"Second Miss's mother is buried on this mountain?" He asked. Since the other party is about to marry him, he should bow to his deceased mother.

Ling Hui shook her head, "Mother's grave is located in Lingxiang Mountain, I just came here to relax and walk around at will, but the carriage was stuck for a lot of time, so I delayed the time to go back." ”

Before Luo Sheng could ask questions, the entourage came over and said, "Young master, the carriage has been rolled out." It's just that the downhill road is probably no longer suitable for a carriage ride. ”

Ling Huiliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, it will take some time to go down the mountain, is it impossible to go down?

Luo Sheng saw her embarrassment, after all, the other party was the object of his marriage, and Ling Hui seemed to be weak and pitiful, so he couldn't help but have the idea of protecting him, so he asked people to lead his horse over.

"If the second lady doesn't dislike it, it's better to take my horse down the mountain, I'll lead the horse in front, it's much better than a carriage."

Ling Hui was both grateful and embarrassed, "This-how can this be so troublesome to the child, not to mention that you and I don't know each other-"

Luo Sheng smiled, "Maybe you and I are really destined, this fate is really wonderful, I don't know you now, and I will know you in the future, so you can sit down."

Or do you want to go down in vain? I'm afraid that before I get to the bottom of the mountain, it will not be a fairy in white, but a fairy in black. ”

Ling Hui was amused by his words, pursed her lips and smiled: "Childe is really good at laughing, since this is the case, then the little woman is better to be respectful than to obey her fate." Dare to ask what Childe is called? ”

Luo Sheng didn't want to hide it, and said generously: "The surname is Luo, and the single name is a winning word." ”

Luo Sheng?! Ling Hui's face was indescribably shocked, and she opened her mouth wide in surprise and said, "You-you are the young master of the Luo family?" ”

Luo Sheng laughed: "Speaking of which, you and I haven't officially met, I didn't expect God to arrange for us to meet in this situation, but it is also fate, although you and I should not have met, but the situation is special, and now we can't manage so much." ”

Ling Hui didn't seem to react yet, she stood in place stunned, staring at Luo Sheng intently.

Luo Sheng couldn't help urging: "Second Miss, please get on the horse, this rain is getting heavier and heavier, down this mountain, I'm afraid there is no way to go back to the city directly, the city gate must have been closed at this time." I can only grieve the second lady to rest for one night at the inn at the foot of the mountain. ”

Ling Hui was taken aback again, "Su-stay outside?" This- how can this be, I-" She hung her head, her voice choked up.

Caiju comforted: "Second Miss, the maid will accompany you, let's go down the mountain first, wait for the matter of entering the city and then find a way, the master has not seen you return home, and he will definitely send someone to find you." ”

Ling Hui thought about it and felt right, biting her lip, she no longer hesitated, and was helped by Luo Sheng to ride the horse.

It's easy to wait for the bottom of the mountain, and it's already dark and I can't see the road.

"At this time, the city gate must have been closed, I'm afraid that the second lady will really go with me to the inn near here for one night." Luo Sheng persuaded.

Ling Hui looked at her clothes that were almost soaking wet in embarrassment, if Luo Sheng hadn't lent her the cloak in understanding, she might have made a shame.

She sighed and could only nod: "Since I can't enter the city anymore, I can only go to the inn for one night first, I just hope that my father won't worry too much." ”

When the group came to the inn, a few entourages who came before had already booked the best guest room, and when Luo Sheng arrived, he directly asked Xiao Er to take people to the guest room, and by the way, he also ordered wine and food.

It's just that there is one more person, but the entourage doesn't know what to do.

"Young master, the shopkeeper said that there is only one room in the upper room."

Luo Sheng didn't think about it, so he said that he would give the guest room to Ling Hui to live in.

Ling Hui excused herself slightly, but finally accepted Luo Sheng's kindness, thanked her again and again, and then took Caiju and Mandarin Duck to the guest room.

After the three of them closed the door, the expression on Ling Hui's face cooled.

Caiju said anxiously: "Second Miss, what should I do now?" Originally, I wanted to meet Young Master Luo on the road, but who knew that the rain was so heavy, this-"

Ling Hui was silent for a moment before a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "This is better, it is much easier to invite him to the room than to invite him into the carriage, you go and ask the shopkeeper to prepare a pot of warm wine, and then bring a message to Luo Sheng, just say that I invited him over to thank him, and I will thank him in person." ”

Cai Ju nodded, asked the mandarin duck to find the shopkeeper to ask for wine, and went to the ordinary guest room downstairs.

She came to Luo Sheng's room, knocked lightly, and waited for the people inside to ask who it was, before she said respectfully: "It's the maid, the maid came to invite Young Master Luo on the order of the second young lady." ”

Luo Sheng asked his entourage to open the door, and Caiju entered the room before he said: "The second miss is grateful to Young Master Luo for his rescue, and specially invited the young master to get together upstairs, saying that she wanted to thank her in person, I am afraid that after tonight, the second miss will return to the house early in the morning, so this thank you will not be expressed." ”

Luo Sheng hesitated for a moment, and felt that there was no need to refuse, so he nodded and let Caiju lead the way in front.

On the other side, the mandarin duck asked Xiao Er to send wine and food to Ling Hui's room, Xiao Er wanted to ask if he still wanted to prepare hot water, but he was too frightened by the mandarin duck's eyes to ask more, so he quickly retreated. (To be continued.) )
