56. Chapter 56
Under a lush old locust tree, Lu Ding yawned, opened his eyes, and looked at the official road casually in the sound.
I saw a black-topped carriage.
Miss Xu will definitely not ride a carriage when she comes back.
The red sun was already drooping westward. Lu Ding took a last look at the back of the carriage and confirmed that there were no mule, donkey carriages on the road. He got up and prepared to go home.
He walked diagonally towards the path leading to Liuxi Village. After walking a few steps, he suddenly heard the sound of hooves stopping. Lu Ding looked over casually and saw a girl wearing a light green bundle getting off the carriage with a bag and saying something to the coachman. Then he stood by the side of the road and waited for the carriage to turn around and walk back. She continued to look for a while before embarking on the path.
Being far away, Lu Ding couldn't see the girl's face, but he vaguely felt that this was the girl Xu family that the eldest brother was thinking about!
So should he hide or go out to see her?
In just a moment, Lu Ding made a decision.
He walked quickly toward the road.
The south of the road is a farmland, and the north of the road is deserted because of the uneven terrain, and only a few poplar and locust trees of varying thickness were planted. I don’t know who planted them. When Ningxiang walked forward, she soon noticed that a boy was walking on the road. She looked at it a few times and didn’t take it to heart.
Until the other party stopped in front and looked back at her.
At this time, the two were about a hundred steps apart. Ningxiang was the first to notice the other party's peach blossom eyes that looked very similar to Lu Cheng. Ningxiang couldn't help but slow down. The more she looked, the more she felt that the young man's stature was very similar to Lu Ding who went to pick her up at her doorstep in the early morning that day.
"Is it Lu Ding?" Ningxiang asked tentatively.
Lu Ding didn't hear it.
He was stunned and couldn't believe that there was such a beautiful girl in the next village, and he couldn't believe that the other party might become his sister-in-law.
The young man looked at her straight, without malice, just simply stunning. Ningxiang blushed slightly because she was not sure whether he was Lu Ding. Ningxiang stopped talking and walked forward slowly.
"Sister, have you redeem yourself?" Lu Ding quickly came to his senses. He knew that she was Miss Xu without asking, so he shouted somewhat restrainedly.
It's really Lu Ding.
Ningxiang breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise no one around would suddenly have a man taller than her. He waited for her to approach, which was a bit scary.
After confirming his identity, Ningxiang smiled at Lu Ding, and groped inside the bag and said, "Yes, why are you here?"
After redeeming himself, he is no longer a slave, and he no longer has to leave home. Ningxiang is relaxed and looks particularly good when she smiles.
Lu Ding didn't look at it anymore. This is the girl the eldest brother likes, and he is his future sister-in-law. No matter how good he looks, he has to abide by the rules.
"My elder brother asked me to guard it. Today is the fifth day." Lu Ding said in a very normal tone.
Why do you have to hide it? Let Miss Xu know that the elder brother is looking forward to her redeem, so that she will understand her elder brother’s heart for her better.
Ningxiang never expected Lu Ding to say this, and she didn't expect Lu Cheng to send her younger brother to stare at when she would redeem her. After being stunned, her little face turned red. Knowing that the more silent he became, the more embarrassing he was, Ningxiang asked him quietly while walking forward, "When did you come?"
Lu Ding deliberately fell behind and said to the truth: "I came before lunch. I was about to go home when I came."
"Then didn't you eat at noon?" Ningxiang frowned, a little angry and made Lu Cheng make a fool of himself.
Lu Ding hesitated for the second time he was beaten by his elder brother last night, and finally told the truth, "My second brother cooked in advance, I came here after eating."
Ningxiang finally felt a little more comfortable, otherwise even if Lu Ding came over and waited was not what she meant, she would feel guilty.
