Chapter 314: Chance encounter

Today on Mother’s Day, Xiao Yi wishes all the mothers of the book friends a happy, healthy and long life, and wish the book friends who are mothers happy.
I don't know when it started raining. The raindrops hit the window frames and made a lonely knock. Lu Yan couldn't sleep well all night, and woke up at the sound.
He opened his eyes and looked at the dark tent top for a while, with a small smile on his lips, gently moved his hands and feet, leaned against Lin Jinrong, pressed close to her, and hugged her waist. Blow into the ear.
Lin Jinrong was sleeping soundly, and pushed him a little boredly. Lu Yan simply took a bite on her shoulder, and the tip of her tongue scratched the sensitive part of her earlobe back and forth a few times. Sure enough, Lin Jinrong trembled and let out a soft sigh: "It's raining again?"
"Yeah." Lu Yan took her under him and kept kissing with his head buried.
Lin Jinrong closed his eyes slightly, and whispered, "How long will he stay in the old house? I don't know how Dou'er and the others have packed their luggage."
Since I came to the old house to worship the ancestors a few days ago, it has been raining, and it is getting bigger and smaller. This kind of weather is not suitable for going on the road, and there are always countless people who know or don’t know who want to entertain guests in Pingzhou City. Lu Yan can't stand the daily drinking of wine. The old lady Lu feels so distressed, Bu Ji chooses to go. After the period, let his young couple stay here for a few more days, hide for a while, and go directly to Pingji Temple to vomit and leave the next day.
Lu Yan liked the cleanliness of the old house very much, and liked talking to and talking with people of the same tribe, but Lin Jinrong didn't like it here, only feeling depressed and dull. In addition, there is a Song family who is basically faceless but feels ubiquitous. Whenever a cat runs over the roof on the wall, she feels that she has eyes staring at her in the corner.
A ray of light finally penetrated outside, and Lu Yan let out a sigh of relief and said, "If you don't like to stay here, we will pack our things and go back this afternoon."
Lin Jinrong pulled her loose hair aside and straightened it out, and complained: "I always feel that this place is too narrow, too dark, and too damp. There are always some unexplained noises." Although this old house is in Lu Shao's hands. It was refurbished again, but after all, it couldn’t change that pattern.
Lu Yan opened her sweaty palm and shook her ten fingers: "I thought so when I was a kid. Every time I go back to the old house, I feel particularly uncomfortable."
Lin Jinrong said: "I heard people say that the old mansion once resisted Da Rong's stragglers in the ancestors and saved the young and old of the family?"
Lu Yan said with certainty: "Yes. Although it was just a few stragglers at the time, if there is no old house, or if the old house is not strong, the people of the Lu family will be slaughtered."
Lin Jinrong's heart moved: "Then if there is a sudden disaster now, what will everyone do? Lu Yan said: "There is a big bell in the southeast corner of the ancestral hall. When there is a major event, the bell will ring. The old house must be opened to accept the tribe. "
Lin Jinrong was relieved: "It has been raining today. Let's go back tomorrow. I still have a lot to tell the third brother, and I don't worry about their packing."
Although it did not rain the next morning, the sky was gloomy. Lu Yan and Lin Jinrong greeted the Song family and drove back to Pingzhou. The road was soaked for many days and it was muddy and difficult to navigate. Although it was a bullock pulling a cart, it was still exhausting. Until noon, the city wall of Pingzhou was already in sight. Suddenly it rained, first light rain and then heavy rain. It was so big that there was no shelter from the coachman and the accompanying longevity and other people. Even though it was difficult to breathe, Lu Yan ordered someone to find a home to hide in the rain.
Reluctantly to earn about half a mile ahead, seeing a house vaguely in the white rain and fog, the handlebar-style old Wang was extremely happy, turned around and knocked the whip on the wall of the car, and said loudly, "Second Lord, the youngest remembers There is a tea house in front. We go there to rest and have a bowl of hot soup and water to warm up our body."
There is no reason for Lu Yan: "Go quickly and let the store make some soup for everyone to drink, find a place to dry your clothes, and wait for the rain to get a little bit lighter before leaving, don't save money."
Seeing hope, not only people come with spirit, but also cows and horses come with spirits, working hard to get ahead. Soon after arriving at the door, Changshou yelled a few loudly, and someone greeted Changshou with a quick walk, dressed in a fur coat and hat, negotiated with Changshou in a low voice, and brought Changshou in again.
"Blame me. I knew I would wait until the weather was clear and stable before I left." Lin Jinrong raised the corner of the car curtain and looked out, but saw that the Chaliao Corridor was crowded with many horses and passers-by, and it was even full of people. This way I am afraid that no matter how much money I am willing to pay, it is hard to find a place to hide from the rain and drink soup. I feel a little regretful and guilty.
Lu Yan saw the scene in front of him clearly and couldn't help but sighed: "You are not fooled by yourself. We and Yingtao and Shuangquan can hide in this car, as long as Lao Wang and Changshou have a place to hide."
Suddenly seeing Changshou ran out quickly, he laughed and said: "Second Lord, good luck, Wu Erye is also here, and he also owns a pavilion, gave birth to a small stove, and invites you to go in and rest." Then I saw Wu Xiang. I was dressed in a plain Tsing Yi, standing on the corridor and looking in this direction. Although my face was smiling and his expression was extremely calm, the person was a lot less clear. I can no longer see the kind of flying in my heart when everything was not in my eyes. .
Sure enough, Lin Jinrong couldn't help but sighed secretly, and looked back at Lu Jin: What should I do? "
Lu Yan said, "I always want to see this side. He is afraid that he will also go to Jiangnan to take up his post. Since he has hit him, he should just go about it." So he called the handlebar style and drove the bullock cart all the way to the corridor to support longevity. The big umbrella came over and took Lin Jinrong to the corridor. Lin Jinrong stood still, the skirt corners and soles were clean, without a trace of rain, and when he raised his head, he met Wu Xiang’s smile, and pretended to be okay. Brother Wu."
"It's been a long time." Wu Xiang clasped his fists in return: "I thought I couldn't see you before I left, but I still met. Congratulations first."
Lin Jinrong had many things to say to him, but felt that the comforting words were not what Wu Xiang needed or suitable for her to say, so he said: "I also congratulate Brother Wu."
Lu Yan stomped off the muddy water on the soles of his shoes and clasped his fists to Wu Xiang and said, "Go in and talk."
"I sent a friend out of the city. Who knows how weird the weather is, and it's abruptly blocking people here. I still didn't bring an oil coat and umbrella. If it wasn't for the luck to see this tea house, I would have died today. The clothes are dry and the shoes and socks are still damp, so you are here." Wu Xiang sat at the window, lowered his eyes and lifted the tea soup boiled on the red clay stove, and slowly poured it into Lin Jinrong and Lu Yan. In the coarse porcelain cup, "He only has this here, so it will be fine. I burnt the tea on the fire, so it will be fragrant if I fry it."
Lin Jinrong hurriedly put it in his hand: "It's just clean." But he was a little surprised: "I remember that Brother Wu was very particular about food in the past, how can he not dislike it this time?" At that time, Dow brought Wu. Xiang went to Qingzhou together, and the Wu family specially prepared a cook for Wu Xiang to follow.
Wu Xiang smiled indifferently: "People always change. Before, you felt that something is important, but suddenly you wake up one morning and feel that it is not important anymore." Then he asked Lu Yan, "When is Minxing planning to leave? "
"The 22nd of this month, how about you Maohong?" Lu Yan was quite cautious.
Wu Xiang smiled and said, "I'll leave the day after tomorrow. If you are free, you might as well send me off."
"So anxious?" Lin Jinrong saw that although both Lu Yan and Wu Xiang were trying their best to maintain this closeness, they always had some dry meaning in it, and they couldn't find the harmony at the beginning, so she had to do it. Say a few more words: "The weather is bad, Brother Wu might as well rest a few more days, wait until Tianqing Road is dry and then leave?"
Wu Xiang said indifferently: "Walking early and late is always going. Anyway, it's just going to take a boat down to see the rain along the river."
Lin Jin tolerated and tolerated, and whispered, "Second Brother Wu, are you going to go alone?" She was curious, why didn't Wu Xiang talk about marriage? He became a Jinshi, and there must be countless people who want to make a good relationship. If someone accompanies him to the south of the Yangtze River, and then enlighten him, I'm afraid that he will be better, so he can cheer up earlier.
Wu Xiang met her with caring eyes. He was taken aback for a moment, and then he really laughed: "Thank A Rong for kindness. Of course I will go alone. I want someone to accompany me, but I still have to wait for fate. I resolutely refused to leave, anyway, my eldest brother will succeed the clan."
Seeing that he really laughed, Lu Yan also heaved a sigh of relief: "Listen to what you mean, are you tossing the house again?"
Wu Xiang winked his eyes: "What do you mean? My grandfather and parents simply didn't want to see me these past few days. I simply hid." I didn't want to talk more about this topic, looking up at the white rain and fog outside the window, and sighed:" I’m afraid the rain will not stop. Ask him to make wine and vegetables to eat. I invite you to shelter from the rain. You invite me to eat and drink. How about?
If everything develops as before, this will probably be the last time the three will meet. Lin Jinrong felt a little more sad, and he quickly told Cherry: "Go and let Changshou ask the store to try their best to clean up a table of good wine and food."
After a while, the wine and vegetables are on the table, but they are just some rural home-cooked dishes. There is only one jar of wine that is privately brewed. It has been buried in the ground for ten years, and the smell of the wine is overflowing with the smell of it. .
Lin Jinrong wanted to avoid it, but Wu Xiang put a cup in front of her and said, "Minxing, they all grew up together. They are brothers and sisters. In the future, they will be on separate sides. Don’t let A Rong avoid this and drink together. How about a cup? I don't drink alcohol on weekdays, and I will take this precept today."
Lu Yan looked at Lin Jinrong and saw her bright eyes, knowing that she was good at wine, so he picked up the wine jar and filled her glass with a glass: "Isn't it just a glass of wine? If I didn't allow it, I would appear to be stingy."
But Arong, you can't drink too much. If both of me are drunk, you have to look after you. "
After drinking for three rounds, Lin Jinrong suddenly remembered an important matter and smiled: "Second Brother Wu, speaking of it, my third brother made a small business in Huating County. I am afraid I will ask you for your care in the future."
Wu Huan said, "Where have you done your business again?"
Lin Jinrong nodded: "Yes. I heard that the precious goods business is good there, so I wanted to try it."
Wu Xiang deliberately acted impatiently: "I see. Why is the nose so good?"
