Ruanjiaobao was forced to marry by Lord Hou again

Chapter 52
The sky is bright, and there are four large carriages parked outside Ningbeihou's mansion. It is a long way to go to the moon. The last carriage is full of supplies and food, and the valuables are packed in dark wooden boxes. lower level.

Qin Mingyu and Shen Chongwen helped Mrs. Shen out from left to right, and there were many people who came to see her off.

The personal envoys of several courtyards of the younger generation of the Shen family were not allowed to take them with them, and their master could only come and send them off when he traveled far.

Shen Pan'er was listless, and Zhao Shi at the side talked to her and Shen Yue'er, but she just nodded perfunctorily.

On the other hand, Shen Ci was full of energy, probably in order to get rid of the shackles of the family, and was having fun in advance, so he was very attentive to direct the boy who carried the luggage.

At the door, they exchanged greetings for a while, until Mrs. Shen became impatient, and finally got into the carriage.

Because it was a long journey, the carriage prepared by the Hou Mansion today was exceptionally spacious and comfortable.

The outside of the carriage looks simple, but the inside is not simple.

Ye Lingwu walked in holding the door frame, and was really surprised to find that she could still stand up straight.

There were actually two cowhide-sealed oil lamps hanging on each wall of the lacquered wooden compartment. In order to prevent the inn from being missed during the day, and it was cold at night, the carriage floor was even covered with a fox fur carpet.

Not to mention the place to sit, there is a layer of tiger skin added to the cushion, Ye Lingwu sits on it, it is even more comfortable than sitting on a bed.

The allocation of carriages is also reasonable, old lady Shen and Ye Lingwu, one for Xuan Nai, one for Shen Pan'er and Shen Yue'er, one for Shen Ci and the accompanying guards, and the other two are loaded with items.

The carriage staggered towards the east, and it took half an hour to reach the gate of the city.

You need paperwork to travel, and these are all arranged by Shen Ci. After a while, the officers and soldiers outside shouted sharply: "Let go."

The team from Ningbei Hou's Mansion headed south all the way, and the mountains and rivers outside also gradually changed. The broad road on the plain gradually turned into an avenue sandwiched in the mountains and rivers.

Old Mrs. Shen looked at Ye Lingwu, who was almost sticking her head out, with a smile on her face. She was only 14 years old, and she was raised in Yuzhou in the Northland since she was a child. She has never been to the Southland, so it is normal to be curious.

Just when Ye Lingwu was enjoying watching, a figure suddenly broke into sight.

"It seems that my cousin is very happy to go to Yuecheng with us. I thought you would be as depressed as Shen Pan'er." leisurely.

Ye Lingwu glanced at him and put down the curtain directly.

The old lady Shen at the side slowly opened her eyes and said, "I see you are quite annoying to my second grandson."

"No way, old lady, he is the second son of the Hou family, and it's too late for me to respect him." Ye Lingwu's tone was much weaker when she spoke nonsense.

Mrs. Shen could hear it, and smiled lightly: "Since when did you like telling lies?"

"...Then I'm telling the truth?"

Ye Lingwu was affirmed in the eyes of the old lady Shen, and then continued: "The second son is a dude, not polite, a 17-year-old boy knows how to eat, drink and play all day long, and even the second uncle and second aunt are often provoked by him." Feeling unhappy, it is understandable for me to avoid him."

Hearing this, Mrs. Shen exchanged a look with Nanny Xuan, and suddenly smiled: "You girl is really ruthless when you tell the truth. These words make Jing Yan listen to it."

Ye Lingwu pursed her lips.Of course not.

In a blink of an eye, the sun was about to set, and suddenly there were two knocks on the wall of the compartment, and one hand lifted the curtain from the outside. Shen Ci bent slightly, lowered his head and said, "Grandmother, just now the coachman said that he came to the Linjiang trail, so he didn't take the official road to get closer." Lu Zou can arrive at the inn before dark, what do you think?"

Mrs. Shen thought for a moment, stopped holding the beads, and replied: "Most of our team is women and children, and we carry a lot of valuables. The guards are only five or six people. If we encounter grass bandits, I'm afraid it will delay us." It will take longer. For the time being, we will still take the official route.”

Shen Ci nodded, put down the curtain, and went to tell the coachman to continue on the official road.

In the dark of night, the team from Ningbeihou's Mansion will arrive at an inn called "Caiyuan Rolling" on the official road.

The guards stayed around the carriage, and a group of people stepped into the threshold. The lobby of the inn was very deserted, and there were only a few plainly dressed passers-by.

The boss, who was settling accounts with a sullen face, heard the movement at the door, and looked up. The young man in charge was wearing a black gold crown, with a handsome figure and bright eyes.

——This group of visitors is not easy!
Looking at the old lady in the back, even though her clothes are not visible, her forehead is inlaid with gold thread, not to mention how many girls are more beautiful than the next.

"Ah, please invite some guests~"

The boss warmly greeted him and said, "The guest officials must be staying at the hotel so late. There is a wing room on the second floor of our store, which is absolutely clean! I wonder how many rooms the guest officials want?"

"How many rooms?"

Shen Ci turned to look at the group of women and children behind him, and pondered, "I want... six rooms."

"Good!" The boss replied.

The boss led everyone up to the second floor, first settled the old lady Shen and Nanny Xuan, then sent Shen Pan'er and Shen Yueer into the room, and finally took Ye Lingwu and Shen Ci further inside.

"Here we are." The boss pointed to the two rooms opposite, pushed open one of the doors, and said to Shen, "Would you like to eat? Our inn's chef is very skilled, and I can give it to you when it is ready." Bring it up."

Shen Ci said: "Send it to all six rooms."

The boss agreed and went out the door.

He walked forward, Ye Lingwu entered the door behind, and just about to close the door, Shen Ci's hand suddenly came over and blocked the door back.

Ye Lingwu frowned and said vigilantly, "What do you want?"

Shen Ci pressed his eyes irritably: "I said Ye Lingwu, what do I owe you, every time I see me, I keep a straight face, and you just ignore me when I talk to you during the day, your attitude towards me Can it be better?"

Ye Lingwu said: "You don't owe me anything, it's just that men and women don't know each other. It's better for the second son to stay away from me."

Shen Ci snorted and said, "What if I don't?"

Ye Lingwu was not in a hurry when she heard the words, she raised her head and said, "Then Second Young Master Shen, can you give me a reason to block my door?"

"No."

"..."

"Unless~ you can tell me why you keep a straight face every time you see me. Of course, don't fool me with that kind of bullshit that men and women don't know each other."

Ye Lingwu shot her a gouged look, and said silently: "Second Young Master, if you have a good memory, you should still remember the first time we met, right?"

Shen Ci frowned blankly, the scene of him hitting her with a ring suddenly appeared in his mind.

He and Qiong Man bought that ring at Pei Yuanqing's restaurant through an auction. He didn't like that ring, but he liked to see Qiong Man's absurd appearance that he couldn't do him even with all his savings.

Shen Ci couldn't remember the reason why he hit her with the ring that day, but it must be for fun, and he didn't really want to bully her.

"...You have always hated me just because of that ring?" Shen Ci's tone was a little stuffy.

Ye Lingwu was silent.

Of course, there was a more important reason, but she couldn't say it.

Seeing her silence, Shen Ci really thought it was because he threw the ring to beat her, and felt even more regretful in his heart. He wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it.

Seeing that he was distracted, Ye Lingwu took the opportunity to close the door.

The movements were clean and neat, without sloppiness at all, with a "bang", Shen Ci was caught off guard, and his mind went blank.
