Chapter 768 Sister Qingshuang, you are too straightforward!



Chapter 768 Sister Qingshuang, you are too straightforward!

Xing Xing politely refused: "No need..."

However, Luo Qingrou had already picked up a glass of wine and toasted to the lady in front of Xingxing.

The lady knew that Luo Qingrou was the niece of the prefect's wife, Mrs. Luo, so she would naturally not refuse her this honor. She smiled and drank the wine in the glass.

Xingxing frowned.

Luo gently held up the empty wine glass and smiled softly, "This fruit wine that my aunt specially prepared is made from a variety of fruits. It has a mellow and sweet taste. It is really a fine product."

The lady who had a drink with Luo Qingrou naturally praised him repeatedly: "Indeed, indeed!"

Apricot meal.

Could it be that Luo Qingrou really likes this because the fruit wine is delicious?

While Xingxing was still thinking, Luo Qingrou had already started drinking with another lady who came to toast Xingxing.

Luo Qingrou looked young, but she drank wine like water, guzzling it down one cup after another.

Xing Xing was a little stunned at first, but then she saw Luo Qingrou drinking too quickly and choking, so she reached out to stop him: "Okay, stop drinking."

She also tried a glass of this fruit wine just now.

The fruit wine tastes okay, and if you have a few sips, it's indeed not very intoxicating. But the problem is - this is not what Luo Qingrou calls a small drink. No matter how non-intoxicating the fruit wine is, it can't withstand Luo Qingrou drinking one glass after another!

However, Luo Qingrou simply pushed Xingxing's hand away.

Mrs. Luo was originally smiling as she watched her niece blocking the wine for Xingxing, but when she saw this, her breathing paused a little.

It seemed that Luo Qingrou was really drunk. She even dared to push the princess!

"Qingrou!" Luo Madam spoke, but she didn't stop Luo Qingrou from drinking anymore. Instead, she said angrily, "How could you push the princess? Why don't you apologize to the princess as soon as possible?"

Xing Xing was not annoyed, but Luo Qingrou was quick. Xing Xing raised her glass to apologize: "Princess, please don't blame me. I was wrong just now. I will drink three cups to make amends for my mistake."

Having said that, Luo Qingrou drank three cups in a row very neatly.

After drinking these three cups, Luo Qingrou could hardly stand steadily and staggered towards Xingxing.

Xingxing frowned and saw Luo Qingrou accidentally falling into her arms, holding on to her and refusing to let go no matter what.

The prefect's wife, Mrs. Luo, was shocked and hurried over. She tried to pull Luo Qingrou away while apologizing to Xingxing.

Unexpectedly, the drunk Luo Qingrou grabbed Xingxing's clothes tightly. If they were to separate them by force, Xingxing's clothes would be lost.

Xing Xing raised an eyebrow.

She felt something was not right just now, and seeing Luo Qingrou like this made Xingxing even more certain.

Qing Shuang, standing by, could no longer hold back and wanted to pry Luo Qingrou's hands away.

She could guarantee that Luo would just dislocate her hand and put it back together later, and there would be no problem.

But when Qingshuang looked at Xingxing inquiringly, Xingxing just shook her head slightly.

Luo was full of apology and panic: "Princess, please forgive me! My niece was rude and offensive, and she really deserves to be punished! ... Please also consider my niece's sincerity in just trying to stop the wine for you, and wait until my niece sobers up before punishing her."

These words were said humbly, but she did not forget to remind Xingxing that even though she had offended you at the moment, she did this just to protect you from the wine, and it was out of kindness.

Xing Xing twitched the corner of her mouth.

It's the same routine again, first put people in a position of power, and then force them to follow her ideas?

Although Xingxing said she didn't buy it, she was still a little curious and wanted to see what this aunt and nephew were going to do.

"The Magistrate's wife has said so. If I continue to 'blame' her, wouldn't that be too inhumane?" Xing Xing smiled calmly, "Miss Luo is drunk, so I will send her to rest. And change her clothes while she's at it."

Luo was still in a state of panic, and tried to pry the drunk Luo Qingrou's hand away: "How can I trouble the princess to send my troublesome niece to rest... Qingrou, Qingrou, let go!"

Luo's gentle hands were pried open by force, leaving red marks.

It looks like he really tried hard.

Qing Shuang frowned as she watched from the side.

She wanted to tell Mrs. Luo that the way you were breaking it was wrong. You should just pinch the wrist and break it with a snap. Wouldn't the fingers naturally lose strength and loosen?

But Qing Shuang knew that Xing Xing had her own arrangements, so she said nothing.

Xing Xing smiled and said, "It's OK. Please ask the Magistrate's wife to ask someone to help Miss Luo. I will go with her. Maybe Miss Luo will naturally let go of her hand after she has rested for a while and sobers up."

Luo was moved and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Princess."

Mrs. Luo called a strong servant over and picked up Luo Qingrou. Xingxing followed and let Luo Qingrou pull her clothes and leave the banquet.

The other ladies attending the banquet all praised the princess for her tolerance and kindness, and watched Xingxing and the others leave.

When they arrived at the nearby guest room, Luo gave a few instructions to the maid to serve well, and then apologized to Xingxing, saying that the banquet was going on and she could not leave the host's house, so she had to go back.

Please rest here for a while, Princess.

Xing Xing raised her eyebrows: "It's alright, Madam Magistrate, please do as you please."

Xingxing sat beside the bed, waiting for Luo Qingrou to wear off her drunkenness and loosen her clothes.

The room was very quiet.

Xingxing twitched her nose. The incense in the room was fine, and the decoration was also fine.

The door was fine, and as long as Luo Qingrou loosened her grip, she could leave at any time.

so……

Luo was pulling her gently. What was he doing?

While Xingxing was still thinking, Luo Qingrou, who was drunk on the bed, suddenly burst into tears.

It is said that a beautiful woman's tears are particularly lovable. Luo Qingrou is naturally beautiful, and even with her eyes closed, she is still beautiful when she cries.

Luo Qingrou murmured in tears in her sleep: "...Dad, Mom, I miss you so much..."

Xing Xing paused slightly.

She had always been an orphan. Although she later learned about her own life experience, but... having parents like that was the same as not having any parents at all.

Luo Qingrou's drunken murmurs were quite irritating.

Xingxing looked indifferently as she looked at Luo Qingrou lying on the bed.

The maid had already served Luo Qingrou a bowl of sobering soup, saying it was very effective. Logically, Luo Qingrou should have "woke up" soon.

Luo Qingrou suddenly rolled over in fear on the bed: "Don't... don't send me away... Dad, Mom!"

As Luo rolled gently, he naturally loosened Xingxing's clothes.

Xingxing stood up, and Luo Qingrou suddenly fell over the edge of the bed and vomited violently.

The smell of vomit is naturally unpleasant.

Qing Shuang frowned and pulled Xing Xing out of the door.

With a maid serving in the room, Xingxing didn't worry that Luo Qingrou would be choked to death by vomit.

She went straight to the next room and asked someone to fetch some water. She changed her clothes and washed up.

When Xingxing was changing clothes in the room, Qingshuang was watching outside. Apart from the noise made by the drunk Luo Qingrou in the next room, there was nothing unusual.

After Xing Xing had changed her clothes, Qing Shuang pushed the door open and came in, still a little puzzled, and said bluntly: "...I thought the prefect's wife would do something while the princess was changing her clothes."

Xing Xing smiled slightly: "She shouldn't be that stupid. She can't let someone see me changing my clothes and ruin my innocence, right?"

Qing Shuang was also puzzled.

But soon, another maid came knocking on the door, saying that the cousin had sobered up and realized what she had done when she was drunk, so she came to apologize.

Xing Xing and Qing Shuang exchanged glances.

Xing Xing sat quietly in the chair and said with a smile, "Then please invite Miss Luo in."

As soon as Luo Qingrou came in, she knelt on the ground.

She had obviously cleaned up, changed her clothes, removed the hairpins, and tied her hair into a loose bun with a few drops of water on her forehead.

Luo knelt there gently, her whole body trembling slightly: "...Princess, please forgive me. I was drunk and behaved inappropriately, and I offended you. I deserve to die..."

It's not a pity that she has come out. Xingxing pressed her temples and said, "It's not that serious. Your aunt also said that you were trying to stop me from drinking. Miss Luo, please get up."

Luo bit her lips gently, and suddenly seemed to have made up her mind. She stood up and closed the door behind her. Then she knelt down in front of Xing Xing again and cried, "...Princess, I am willing to tell you the truth... In fact, this was all arranged by my aunt!"

Xing Xing sat up straighter: "Oh? What do you mean?"

Luo Qingrou's eyes were red, and she knelt there crying: "My aunt asked me to pretend to be drunk and dirty the princess's clothes, and then she would let my cousin come to see me... I was timid and didn't dare to do what my aunt said. So I used a little trick to send my cousin away..."

Luo Qingrou kowtowed to Xingxing again and again, choking with sobs, "Princess, please forgive me. I didn't mean to plot against you. It was really..."

She raised her head and smiled bitterly, "It's true that when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head."

Xing Xing looked at Luo Qingrou for a while before speaking: "...You get up and talk."

Luo Qingrou's eyes became redder and she choked up more and more: "Princess, you don't blame me?"

Xing Xing said: "You also said that when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head."

Luo sobbed softly for a few times, then got up from the ground and sat in a chair below Xing Xing, sobbing, "...Princess, you may only know that I am your aunt's niece, but you probably don't know that your aunt has taken in five nieces like me."

Xing Xing thought to herself, this is actually known.

But she naturally couldn't let anyone know that they had thoroughly investigated the prefectural government, so she just said, "Oh? What do you mean?"

Luo Qingrou choked up and said, "My first three sisters were all married off not long after my aunt brought them here. Some of them were very old, and some were widows... They all became means for my aunt to control the people under my uncle. I, I don't want this..."

Xingxing looked at Luo gently.

Luo Qingrou was naturally beautiful, at the age of a flower. The pretty and lovely girl cried like a pear blossom in the rain, which made people feel very pitiful.

"Although I was born in a poor family, I have always wanted to marry a good husband when I grow up, love him, take care of the household for him, and have children. I don't have any intention of clinging to the rich and powerful." Luo Qingrou covered her face and sobbed, choking with sobs. "But my aunt thinks that if she promotes her family, we will all be pawns in her hands and have to devote our lives to their Pang family... But I don't want to!... If I do as she says and help my aunt to destroy the princess's innocence, the princess will be angry and I may even lose my life. I don't want to die yet..."

Luo Qingrou cried even harder and her whole body trembled.

Xing Xing thought for a moment and said, "Not really. I always deal with people who are wronged and those who are wronged should be dealt with by their proper owners. I will never involve others."

Luo wiped away her tears gently: "...Yes, after I woke up, I knew that the princess was not angry at all after being implicated by me, and even sent me back. I knew that the princess was a good person and would not kill me... But it is precisely because the princess is a good person that I am glad that I did not help the tyrant and help my aunt to harm the princess."

Qing Shuang was deeply moved when she heard this.

This cousin started out by grabbing their princess's clothes tightly and even wanted to dislocate the cousin's wrist, which was really rude.

This cousin is a nice person.

Xing Xing also said: "Thank you for your kindness."

Luo wiped away her tears gently, still a little embarrassed, and whispered: "Princess, you are such a kind person."

When Luo Qingrou had almost stopped crying, Xingxing stood up and asked, "Should I ask someone to take you back?"

Luo nodded softly, weakly and helplessly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xing Xing seemed to have just thought of something and asked Luo Qing Rou: "Since you didn't help your aunt fulfill her instructions, what are you going to do when you go back?"

Luo Qingrou's face turned pale, and she lowered her head: "I, I don't know either... I want to ask the princess to protect me, but I think this request seems too shameless..."

Xing Xing pondered for a while and said, "It's not that shameless. Well, I chose you to accompany me on the trip anyway. When I go back later, I will tell the wife of the prefect to take good care of you. Tomorrow we will go out to travel together. This way, she will not touch you."

Luo Qingrou raised her head in surprise, tears welling up in her eyes again: "Princess! Thank you, Princess!"

As he said this, he was about to kneel down in front of Xingxing again.

Xing Xing sighed and waved her hands: "Don't kneel for no reason. You just sobered up from being drunk, you should go back and rest early."

Luo Qingrou thanked him again and again, then left wiping away tears.

Xingxing did not return to the banquet, but went straight back to the small courtyard where she was staying to rest.

After returning, I found that Yu Yonggui had come early today and was already sitting on the couch in the room, leisurely crossing his legs and reading Xingxing's storybook.

"Are you back?" Yu Yonggui took a bite of fruit. "Is the banquet here fun?"

Xing Xing immediately forgot about what happened at the banquet and subconsciously looked at Qing Shuang.

By the way, doesn’t her fourth brother know that Qing Shuang is planning to marry him?

Although she really wanted to know what would happen next, Xing Xing was also worried that Qing Shuang would feel embarrassed if she was here...

Xingxing was just about to speak up and find an excuse to go out and give the place to Yu Yonggui and Qing Shuang.

As a result, Qing Shuang spoke in a casual tone: "Yu Yonggui."

Yu Yonggui was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qing Shuang: "What's the matter?"

Qing Shuang looked at Yu Yonggui seriously: "I want to marry you."

As soon as these words came out, the fruit in Yu Yonggui's hand fell to the ground with a plop.

Even Xing Xing was almost choked by her own saliva.

Sister Qingshuang! You are too! Too straightforward!
