First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 256 Coincidence
Only then did Qing He sit sideways in a calm manner, and said inexplicably, "Why is this servant not only not feeling sad but also happy to see the young lady's ankle sprained..."

Du Rongzhi smiled, "It's rare to be so unrestrained and free like today, and you don't have to worry about saying or doing something wrong... Naturally, I'm happy." She pulled out a few dog's tail grasses on the side of the road, "Just It's a pity that the flowers in that flower garden are not for sale, otherwise it would be great to buy a few pots back..."

Qing He said, "If the young lady likes it, let the steward of the village come over and ask later..."

Du Rongzhi shook her head with a smile, "Those flowers are so meticulously grown, the owner must also be a flower lover, so how could he have the nerve to let them sell it to me?" Rabbit held it in the palm of his hand, and asked with slanted eyebrows, "Do you think I look good?"

"It really looks like it!" Qing He took a closer look, and saw that the rabbit was plump and round, no matter how funny it looked, she couldn't help laughing, "Young Madam's hands are even more skillful!"

Du Rongzhi also liked it very much, and said proudly, "It's not too difficult..." As he was speaking, he suddenly felt a chill on his head.

Du Rongzhi was taken aback, and looked up, only to find that the sky, which was still sunny just a moment ago, had turned overcast, and scattered raindrops dripped down on her face and body along the gaps in the branches and leaves, bringing a burst of coolness.

"Oh, that's terrible!" Qing He whispered, and quickly stood up, "It's raining right after you say it? I don't know when the winter solstice will come back... Well, what should I do!"

The young lady's body is just getting better, if it rains again... She was running around in a hurry when a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind——

She remembered that there was a row of small wooden houses behind the flower garden, and the winter solstice also said that some gardeners were inside...

Qing He made up her mind, and immediately said, "Young Madam, you wait here first, and this slave girl will go to the flower farmer to borrow an umbrella, and come back right away."

Du Rongzhi looked at the gloomy sky and knew that the rain would not stop for a while, so she nodded and said, "It's rainy and slippery, be careful on the road...I'll wait for you to come back here."

Qing He hurriedly answered yes, turned around and ran towards the flower garden.

... The rain was falling more and more urgently, hitting the leaves with crackling noises.

The cold wind mixed with rain hit the woman's thin body, causing waves of trembling.

Du Rongzhi spread his hands to cover the top of his head, curled up and wanted to shrink under the tree, but unexpectedly, he felt a piercing pain in his ankle as soon as he moved.

She gritted her teeth and let out a low moan, thinking that she couldn't help regretting: If I had known that there would be such a terrible weather today, I would have listened to Qinghe's advice and brought a cloak when I went out, so that my clothes would not be ruined. Wet, and when the wind blows, the whole body is shivering with cold...

She was thinking depressedly with her head down, when she suddenly felt that the rain on the back of her hand seemed to have stopped.

Du Rongzhi was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously raised her face, only to realize that an umbrella had covered it at some point.

She hurriedly turned her head, only to see a tall and thin young man standing under the umbrella.

I saw that he was tall and tall, wearing a royal blue gown, his face was as white as jade, and his pair of dark and deep eyes were looking at him with concern at this time, and there was a faint familiarity between his brows.

Seeing her sitting alone under the tree, the man saw her clothes were a little soaked, so he bent down and turned the umbrella to her side to cover her whole body, and asked softly, "I don't know why Madam is sitting here alone? What's the problem?"

Facing Du Rongzhi's clear and confused eyes, he only thought that Du Rongzhi was vigilant, and patiently explained, "Madam, don't be afraid, I didn't mean to be abrupt... I just passed by here and saw my wife sitting under a tree in the rain." , That’s why I’m asking this extra question. If Madam needs help from me, please just say so.”

Du Rong Zhifang came back to his senses, and was about to stand up to greet the other party, but his ankle hurt so badly that he didn't dare to be brave, so he smiled gratefully at him, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, my lord... I am here to play with the maidservant , I accidentally sprained my foot... The servant girl has already gone home to call for someone, and she thinks she is coming soon. I don't dare to bother you..."

Seeing her beautiful appearance and well-behaved manners, the man also guessed that the female family member of a nearby rich family was accidentally injured while traveling in the mountains and rivers, so he didn't ask any further questions. Even though Zhuangzi below is not far away, it is not close, I am afraid that the wife will not be able to hold on before the wife's family finds her..."

As soon as he finished speaking, God seemed to be cooperating with him on purpose. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, mixed with icy rain, and splashed unscrupulously on Du Rongzhi's skirt, and the bitter chill unscrupulously invaded the skin that was tightly pressed by the wet clothes. Skin... Du Rongzhi couldn't help but hugged her arm and shivered.

The man obviously noticed it too, he thought for a moment, and called the servant behind him, "Go back and get an umbrella and a cloak—" he said, and said to Du Rongzhi, "My flower garden is nearby, It doesn’t take a little effort to go back and forth.”

Du Rongzhi looked surprised, "That flower garden belongs to the young master?"

The man was also stunned, "Madam knows?"

Du Rongzhi nodded, "Today we came here specially to see the flowers." She paused, "To tell you the truth, my other maid has just gone to the flower garden to borrow an umbrella, so don't bother this little brother to run away It's been a trip..."

The man couldn't help laughing and said, "Since Ma'am came here for my flower garden, now that I'm injured, it's my responsibility." After he finished speaking, he turned his head and gave a few instructions to the servant, who quickly answered yes and held on Umbrella hurried away.

She and the man were the only ones left under the tree.

The only sounds around were the whistling wind and the pattering of raindrops hitting the umbrella... The atmosphere was eerily quiet for a while.

Being alone with a strange man like this—it was still in the remote wilderness. To Du Rongzhi, he had only experienced this once in his two lifetimes. He felt very uneasy in his heart, and clasped his skirt tightly with his hands. The body became a little stiff.

The other party obviously also noticed her restraint, so he said a few words of relief in a warm voice, and then didn't make another sound.

Du Rongzhi looked at the dense rain curtain outside, wondering when the people from Biezhuang would arrive, but from the corner of her eye, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of water droplets sliding down the man's hair...

Du Rongzhi was taken aback for a moment, only to belatedly realize that the distance between him and her had been unknowingly widened, and half of her body was already exposed outside.

She knew why he was doing this, she was grateful and felt a little ashamed, hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips and said softly, "Young master, let's go inside...or the clothes will get wet later, I'm afraid I'm going to get sick .”
