He frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
A maid who followed Xu Xuerou out quickly replied: "Master, this is the Miss Xu family that Madam ordered to be sent back to Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion."
When Luo Rui heard that it was about the step-wife's family, she wanted to ignore it, but she didn't want Xu Xuerou to feel like she had seen her savior when she saw him. She struggled to break away from the servant who was holding her down, crying until her eyes were dim with tears, and looked pitifully towards Luo Rui. Rui rushed over.
"Master Luo! Help me!"
Luo Rui took a few steps back in shock and asked in confusion: "Save you? Weren't you sent home by your step-wife? Did you commit something?"
Xu Xuerou was choked when she heard this. She didn't know what to say for a moment. Could she still say that she didn't want to go back to Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion and wanted to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion to seduce you?
The maid next to her quickly confessed to Luo Rui and exposed Xu Xuerou's face directly: "It's Miss Xu who can't go home without a carriage. Madam asked her to lend her the carriage to take her back, but Miss Xu refused and wanted to stay. If Madam disagreed, she sent her home." The boys forced Miss Xu to go back..."
Luo Rui understood immediately. Xu Xuerou was so ashamed that her face was almost red with blood after listening to the maid's words. She didn't expect that the maid could speak so sharply and tell the real reason, which made her want to find an excuse to cover it up. Too late.
"Master Luo... it's not, it's not like this..." She could only explain while covering her face and crying, lowering her head, revealing her snow-white and slender neck and slender and graceful figure, hoping to make Luo Rui feel soft and compassionate.
It's a pity that Luo Rui is a person who doesn't understand amorous feelings. He has always avoided his stepmother's affairs. How can he have anything to do with her natal family?
Therefore, he only said to the servants: "Then you listen to the step-wife and send this Miss Xu back."
After saying that, he completely ignored Xu Xuerou's crying and begging behind him and returned home without looking back.
Xu Xuerou could only cry and be sent back to Uncle Ningyuan's house.
Mrs. Ning Yuanbo, who went back first, saw her granddaughter being sent back in a state of embarrassment, and asked in shock: "Why are you back? Didn't you have to find a way to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Xu Xuerou was crying so hard that she was out of breath. She had been humiliated and thrown into her grandma's house tonight, and the person she wanted to hook up with, Mr. Luo, saw her in such an unbearable scene. She really wanted to die.
When asked by my grandmother, she was even more heartbroken: "Granddaughter, granddaughter thought about it, but, third aunt, she completely ignored her and insisted on sending me back..."
No matter how the people in Uncle Ningyuan's house had their hopes dashed and cursed Xu Shichu with even greater hatred, Xu Shichu was feeling refreshed anyway.
Because Luo Yaqing, who was in charge before, was married, and although there was a loyal nanny assigned by Luo Changqing to manage the house, some things still had to be decided by the master. Therefore, after the busy wedding banquet, Xu Shichu had to be busy for a while.
Luo Rui returned to the living room after seeing off the guests. When Xu Shichu saw him, he thought of his annoying niece who wanted to seduce him. In order to stay more peacefully in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future, he reminded him:
"I have a niece who is interested in your status and wants to be your wife. She failed to use my excuse to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion to plot against you this time. She will probably think of other ways. When you are away, Be careful. If you are successfully plotted, don't blame me. I have warned you now.
Also, I don’t have a good relationship with Uncle Ning Yuan’s house. If she approaches you in my name, don’t be fooled. Otherwise, if something happens, I won’t admit it. If you take your anger out on me, I will too. Hit you back mercilessly, don't say I didn't explain it beforehand. "
Luo Rui was a little surprised after hearing what she said. She didn't expect that this stepmother would tell her so openly and honestly, without giving any face to her natal family. It seemed that what she said about her not having a good relationship with her natal family was true.
"Thank you step-wife for the reminder, I will pay attention." Luo Rui did not reject Xu Shichu's kindness. It was good to be reminded so that he could be careful.
As the only son of Prime Minister Luo, Luo Rui had been plotted by many people about his marriage. Therefore, when Xu Shichu said that her mother-in-law had also plotted against him, she had no intention of venting her anger. After all, she did not participate in it and even "confessed" to herself. "Yes.
"Madam! The master was too drunk tonight. He is still making a fuss and has not slept. He seems to have a fever. Madam, do you want to ask an imperial doctor to come and take a look?" Luo Changqing's attendant Shu Qi suddenly rushed Di found Xu Shichu and asked with a worried look on his face.
After hearing this, Xu Shichu pointed at Luo Rui beside him and said, "I'll take care of your business, young master. I'm tired after a busy day and have to go back early to rest."
After saying that, he held the maid's hand and left without looking worried at all, let alone going back to see Luo Changqing.
Although Luo Rui was a little uncomfortable when he saw that his stepmother had no affection for his father, this discomfort quickly disappeared. It was better to have no affection, so as not to replace his biological mother's position in his father's heart...
Luo Rui thought unkindly, and turned around to see Shu Qi still looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to make up his mind, so he quickly put aside those thoughts and ordered: "Come to the imperial doctor quickly, I will go see my father. "
When they arrived at Luo Changqing's bedroom, they saw him lying unsteadily on the bed, frowning and closing his eyes as if he was tossing and turning in discomfort. A servant was wiping his face with a handkerchief.
"Father! Father!" Luo Rui shouted several times, looking worriedly at Luo Changqing's red face.
When Luo Changqing heard the shouting, he opened his eyes with difficulty, but his eyes were not as clear and sharp as usual. Instead, he was a little confused, as if he did not recognize his son.
"Cook a bowl of hangover medicine for father." Luo Rui ordered his servants.
"I've given you hangover medicine for me," the servant replied.
"If one bowl is useless, cook another one!" Seeing his father's uncomfortable look, Luo Rui ordered again.
It didn't take long for the hangover medicine to be cooked and served. Luo Rui waited for his father to drink it. After a while, Luo Changqing seemed to wake up a little. He opened his eyes and saw Luo Rui and said, "Ruier? You?" Why are you here? It’s so late and you’re not going to rest?”
"My father seems to be ill. My son is worried about his father and will wait until the imperial doctor comes to see him." Luo Rui replied.
"I'm not that fragile." Luo Changqing covered his eyes with his arms and said, "It's just that Qing'er got married today, so I was in a bad mood and drank too much."
"Father, it is a great joy for my sister to get married. My brother-in-law will definitely treat her well. You don't have to worry." Luo Rui knew how much his father loved his sister, so he advised her.
"After all, she married into someone else's house, not in front of me. How can I not worry?" Luo Changqing sighed, "Now I just hope that Zhou Wencun is a good person and can live up to your sister."
"I see that Zhou Wencun has a deep love for his sister. How could he let her down? Father, if you are concerned, you will be confused." Luo Rui said.
Luo Changqing shook his head, feeling that his son was still too young to know how unpredictable people's hearts were.
