With that said, he walked into the house without looking back.
"Get in."
As for Luo Jiuli, he had no idea what happened in the Jiuwang Mansion. He got on the carriage and walked out of the streets of the Jiuwang Mansion. Luo Jiuli stopped Xiao Wu.
"Miss Luo Er, the prince asked his subordinates to send Miss Luo Er back to the Duke's palace safely."
"I know, but I just suddenly remembered something. Just stop in front. Chun Rong and I will go back home on our own after finishing our work."
When Qin Wu heard this, he thought it was okay and shook his head hurriedly.
"No, Miss Luo. There are so many people coming and going on this street. If something happens to Miss Second, even if my subordinates have ten heads, they won't be able to chop it off."
puff!
Chun Rong, the one at the back, covered her mouth and laughed, then stretched out her hand to tug on her young lady's sleeve.
"Miss, please don't embarrass him."
Luo Jiuli slapped her hand away.
"You girl, if you don't speak for me, how can you speak for him?"
"Don't you know that your lady and I really have something to do?"
Chun Rong was not annoyed and took back her finger, still smiling.
"Miss, why don't you let him follow you, so that you can go about your business with peace of mind, so that he can deliver his errands when he returns home."
Luo Jiuli nodded.
"It's okay, I'm relieved if someone protects me."
Immediately, Qin Wu stopped the carriage in the busiest commercial street in the inner city.
Qin Wu didn't know why, so he parked the carriage outside a teahouse and followed Luo Jiuli and Chun Rong for a stroll.
It was said that they were just wandering around, but it was clear that the master and servant did not even enter a shop.
After shopping for half an hour, the two of them didn't buy anything.
"Miss Luo Er, isn't there anything in this shop that Miss Luo Er likes?"
Luo Jiuli shook his head.
"I'm not buying anything."
Qin Wu: If you don’t buy anything, why go shopping?
"Miss, look, there is an empty shop there."
Chun Rong's thighs hurt from walking, and she finally found an empty shop near the end of the street.
Luo Jiuli looked around. On the right side of the shop was a vegetable vendor with rotten vegetable leaves scattered around. On the left side was a butcher's shop. The meat was covered with a layer of cloth and flies were flying everywhere.
When Chun Rong saw that her young lady was silent and saw that the two shops on the left and right were too dirty, she said angrily:
"Miss, this location is not very good. It's too far away. Why don't you look for it again?"
Luo Jiuli was silent and walked back.
"I'm not looking for you anymore, I'm going back home first."
Behind him, Qin Wu was a little puzzled and moved closer to Chun Rong.
"Why is your lady looking for a shop?"
Chun Rong glanced at him.
"Open a store."
After saying that, he also raised his feet and followed.
After Qin Wu sent the master and servant back to Yiguo's palace, he returned to the palace in a hurry.
I learned from Luo Jiuli's boss about finding a shop and wanting to open one.
Before Xiao Mingxuan could speak, Xing Xiyan, who was sitting aside and sipping tea, became interested.
"You said the second young lady of the Luo family wants to go into business?"
Qin Wu nodded and did not dare to speak.
"Then what store does she want to open? Has she ever said anything about it?"
Qin Wu shook his head, still not daring to speak.
Xiao Mingxuan glanced sideways at Xing Xiyan and waved his hand at Qin Wu.
"You go down."
"yes."
Qin Wu retreated.
"This is a rare thing."
There was a glint in Xing Xiyan's fox eyes.
"It is rare for a woman to do business. What's more, Luo Jiuli is the second daughter of the Yiguo Duke. Although they divorced, the Yiguo Duke will not shorten her food and clothing expenses. Why should she open a shop and do business in public?
?”
"Is it possible that she had a hard time in the Duke's Mansion because of Heli?"
Xiao Mingxuan sat in a chair, resting his forehead on one hand and speaking in a low voice.
"What are you talking nonsense about? Is your skin tight again?"
Xing Xiyan snorted and leaned back on the chair lazily, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"Cousin, are you nervous about Miss Luo's second daughter?"
Xiao Mingxuan said nothing and looked at him seriously.
Xing Xiyan is not afraid either, his eyebrows are lazy and comfortable.
"Cousin, your look in your eyes and your actions just now, as well as the rumors outside these days, seem to make me spy on something?"
"Cousin, you're not really interested, are you? Let me tell you, it's okay to have fun, but you must not get stuck in it, otherwise, you will have a weakness and it will hinder your cousin's grand ambitions."
"Shut up."
As Xiao Mingxuan's angry voice sounded, an empty tea bowl came straight to Xing Xiyan's face.
Xing Xiyan raised his hand and caught the tea bowl firmly.
"My cousin is so cruel that he is not afraid of hurting my handsome appearance."
Outside the door, the housekeeper and Qin Wu looked at each other, twitching their lips and looking at the sky speechlessly.
Mr. Xing, this romantic and evil scoundrel, has deceived many simple and ignorant little girls with his troubled face.
Naturally, Xing Xiyan didn't know that in the minds of the servants of the Nine Princes' Mansion, he was just a romantic and evil scoundrel who relied on his face to deceive others.
"Cousin, this is the second time you have attacked me because of a woman."
"Cousin, are you really interested in the second young lady of the Luo family?"
"Cousin, how about I help you find out the details about the second young lady of the Luo family?"
"Noisy!"
Xiao Mingxuan suddenly stood up as his ears felt like they were getting calluses.
"Butler, see the guests off."
With that said, he left the flower hall directly.
Xing Xiyan stood up, shook the folding fan in his hand, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, feeling somewhat inquisitive for no reason.
After leaving the Nine Princes' Mansion, Xing Xiyan got on the carriage.
"Sir, are you going back home or-"
"Go to the Yiguo Duke's Mansion."
At this time, the atmosphere in the flower hall of Yiguo Duke's mansion was quite solemn.
Mrs. Yiguo sat at the top of the table, and Luo Jiuli sat on one side.
On the other side, there sat a middle-aged woman who was slightly older than the Duke's wife and looked somewhat similar. This woman was none other than the Duke's wife's biological sister and the wife of Sun Shilang, a regular attendant in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Sitting next to her was a man who looked much older than Luo Jiuli. He was the eldest son of the Sun family and Luo Jiuli's cheap cousin, Sun Ting.
However, the slightly lewd look in Luo Jiuli's eyes has been stuck to her ever since.
"Jiu'er, this is your aunt."
The Duke's wife's face was not pretty, but because she was her own sister, she was suppressing her anger.
Luo Jiuli glanced at the so-called aunt opposite her, her mother's eldest sister, and smiled faintly. There was no trace of respect in that smile, but rather disdain.
When he returned home just now, the person who greeted Luo Jiuli was not the housekeeper, but Aunt Xu next to her mother.
Mother Xu didn't even let her say anything, so she told Luo Jiuli exactly what happened in the house and why the lady asked her to wait for her at the door of the house.
It turns out that this eldest aunt, who always goes to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason, came here with her prodigal son to propose marriage to the Duke of Yiguo.
To whom should I propose marriage? Of course, I should propose marriage to her, Luo Jiuli.
She finally escaped from the wolf den in Prince Zhao's Mansion and received the decree from the Holy One to divorce her. Is she a fool? Then she jumped into the pit of fire.
