Luo Sheng glanced at the maid and did not speak.

Hongdou glared: "Who are you girls, if you want to invite our girls to tea, our girls want to appreciate their faces?" ”

The maid whispered: "Our girl's surname is Xu, and she is sincere—"

"Lead the way," Luo Sheng said bluntly when he heard the surname "Xu".

The maid didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and was stunned before saying, "Please come with the maid." ”

Luo Sheng said to Sheng Saburo: "Cousin, you sit in the wine shop first, and I'll take the red beans over to have a look." ”

"Okay." Sheng Saburo hesitated for a moment and nodded.

was worried about his cousin's safety, but when he thought of the robbery he encountered on the way to Beijing, he felt too worried.

Seeing Luo Sheng follow the maid into the teahouse opposite, Sheng Saburo walked into the wine shop and randomly picked a bench to sit down, curious.

"Chloe." Sheng Saburo beckoned to Ko'er, who was standing not far away.

Chloe came over with a small face: "Cousin has something?" ”

"Do you know who is looking for you girl?"

Kou Er tugged at the corners of her mouth: "How do you know, the girl didn't take the maid with her." Cousin, it's not okay for you to gossip like this as a big man......"

Sheng Saburo touched his nose and was silent.

It can be seen that this little girl is not in a good mood, and he still doesn't provoke it.

In the elegant room of the teahouse, Luo Sheng saw Miss Xu in the mouth of the maid.

Miss Xu looked at seventeen or eighteen years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, black hair like clouds, and she was a bright beauty.

But her eyebrows frowned subconsciously, and her temperament and appearance were a little incompatible.

Seeing Luo Sheng coming in, Miss Xu hurriedly got up to greet her, and said a little crampedly: "I'm still worried that Miss Luo won't come......"

Luo Sheng glanced at Miss Xu deeply, and smiled on his lips: "Miss Xu, please, why don't I come." ”

The girl in front of her is Xu Fang, the daughter left by the county lord of Huayang, Luo Sheng's niece.

Xu Fang blessed Luo Sheng: "I have always wanted to thank Miss Luo in person for my brother's matter, but now I have the opportunity, and I hope Miss Luo will not blame." ”

"Sit down first." Luo Sheng walked straight to the tea table and sat down, and leisurely poured himself a cup of tea.

Xu Fang sat down opposite.

Luo Sheng looked at her with a teacup, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt similar to his eldest sister.

The bloodline inheritance is so magical, when that person is gone, the children born of her blood will always have traces of her existence in this world.

Being looked at like this by Luo Sheng, Xu Fang became more and more cramped.

She knew Miss Luo's murderous name, and she had even beaten the daughter of the Ge family's family before, not to mention that she had just made her stepmother disgraced.

It was precisely because her stepmother was deflated by Miss Luo that she mustered up the courage to invite this time.

Luo Sheng played with the teacup and said in a casual tone: "Why does Miss Xu thank me?" I thought you'd blame me, after all, I brought Ling Diqiang back to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. ”

Xu Fang looked at her with a solemn expression: "It's okay, no one will bully my brother in the future." Even if someone bullies him, someone will make the decision for him. ”

After Miss Luo's trouble, even if her younger brother was bullied and kept silent, it was impossible for her father and stepmother to turn a blind eye.

Luo Sheng's eyes flashed slightly, and he was a little happy.

Compared with the nephew who was raised crookedly, the niece looked transparent.

"I also received five thousand taels of silver from your family." Luo Sheng took a sip of tea.

Xu Fang smiled: "Miss Luo also said that she took my family." ”

Even if she didn't accept it, the five thousand taels of silver would not fall into her hands.

Luo Shengdai's eyebrows stretched: "Then I will accept Miss Xu's thanks." ”

Xu Fang picked up the teacup and raised it to Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng took a sip of tea and seemed to mention it casually: "I heard that Miss Xu doesn't often live in the Hou Mansion?" ”

Xu Fang unexpectedly asked about this, and nodded with a little hesitation: "Well, my cousin will sometimes take me to live in the Guogong Mansion." ”

The cousin in Xu Fang's mouth is the Duchess of Ningguo, and the relationship with the lord of Huayang is a distant cousin.

The relationship between the nobles and the hundred officials is complicated, and the two families are related to each other casually, and it is because the Zhennan Wangfu is not implicated in such distant relatives because of the crime of treason.

When Luo Sheng was still in the palace, he knew from the letter from the county lord of Huayang that the eldest sister had a good relationship with the Duchess of Ningguo.

"Why do you always go to other people's houses to live?"

This is a direct and even rude question.

Xu Fang's face flashed with embarrassment, and she maintained her calmness and said: "My cousin has loved me since I was a child, and my mother often took me to my cousin's house to play when I was a child, so I got used to it." ”

Luo Sheng nodded slowly: "I think of it, your brothers and sisters are the same as me, and they don't have a mother." ”

She said casually, even a little coldly, but it inexplicably touched Xu Fang's heartstrings.

yes, they don't have mothers......

Miss Luo developed such a lawless temperament, also because she didn't have a mother to discipline her well.

Xu Fang thought abruptly, and lost her mind about Luo Sheng's sharp question just now.

"Does Miss Xu know that Brother Ling is often bullied?" Another sharp question was thrown out by the girl on the other side.

Xu Fang's face was slightly red, and he suppressed his embarrassment: "I met him once, and he didn't want others to know about it......"

After being silent for a long time, she lowered her eyes and said, "My brother and I are not very close. ”

"What about you?"

"Me?" Xu Fang was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes and looked at Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng had no extra expression on his face, and looked at her quietly.

Xu Fang gently tugged at the corners of her lips and smiled bitterly: "I only have such a younger brother." ”

The implication is that she is naturally willing to be close to her younger brother.

Luo Sheng pinched the teacup, his heart moving slightly.

Through this conversation, at least it can be seen that the niece is not stupid.

A very smart little girl came to thank her and revealed a lot of information, for what?

Her questions were so sharp that if the other party didn't want to, they could have avoided answering them.

Luo Sheng's mind turned slightly, and he vaguely had an answer.

Xu Fang cautiously tentatively approached her.

And the purpose of approaching her is self-evident: to use Miss Luo's majesty to fight against her stepmother.

Luo Sheng naturally welcomed this.

She decided to ask one more question.

"Miss Xu is such a younger brother, how can she bear to leave him alone in the Hou Mansion, while she often lives in the Guogong Mansion?"

"I can't help it-" Xu Fang seemed to sense the gaffe and bit her lip.

As for whether it was a real gaffe or something else, it would be difficult to say.

Luo Sheng didn't ask.

When a person takes the initiative to approach you, what you have to do is to show a trace of kindness and give the other person the courage to keep approaching. Instead of being too enthusiastic and eager, scare people away.

Luo Sheng put down the teacup and said with a faint smile: "The tea in this house is not very delicious." ”

Seeing that Luo Sheng didn't ask again, Xu Fang's expression was a little complicated, as if he was relieved, but also a little regretful.

"Really? I rarely come out for tea, so I don't know much about it. It's me who was rude, and I went back to choose a good teahouse to apologize to Miss Luo. ”

Luo Sheng waved his hand and pointed out the window: "Why bother. Did Miss Xu see the wine shop opposite? ”

Xu Fang glanced out.

It was a liquor shop that didn't have a signboard but was completely renovated.

"That's mine, it will open on the eighth day of the first month of next month, and Miss Xu can go to the show if she has time."
