The middle-aged steward named Ma has small eyes, a big nose, very thick lips, and a rather tall and strong build. He is not only the steward of Tianxiang Tower, but also the brother-in-law of the owner of Tianxiang Tower. He is not only cunning and cunning, but also greedy and lustful. In addition to Su Niang, all the girls in this brothel have been blackmailed and taken advantage of by him under various pretexts.
Therefore, the girls in the brothel are extremely disgusted with him.
Manager Ma's greedy eyes swept over Su Niang, and finally fell on Song Yan: "You are so brave, you dare to hurt Young Master Zhou, come on, break this bastard's hands and feet and tie them up!"
The thugs carrying sticks were about to rush forward to arrest people, but Su Niang took a step forward and begged to Manager Ma: "Manager Ma, wait a minute, can you please take a step to speak."
Manager Ma couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He had coveted Su Niang for a long time, but the big boss wanted to use her to make a lot of money, so he had always been wary. But now is an opportunity. It seems that Su Niang is planning to If you plead for this man, even if you can't take advantage of her body, you can still extort a lot of money and take advantage of her.
So, he raised his hand to signal the thugs not to worry.
"I wonder if Su Niang has any advice?" Manager Ma asked pretentiously with half-squinted eyes.
"Steward Ma, please come to the room to talk." Su Niang said.
"Su Niang invites you, naturally you are asking for it!" Manager Ma said with a smile, then turned to the group of thugs and said: "You all keep an eye on this kid, don't let him run away, otherwise, the master of the palace will pursue him Come down and take the blame on you!"
"yes!"
A group of thugs responded, but blocked the corridor to prevent Song Yan from escaping.
Su Niang led Manager Ma into the room, and then told the maid beside her: "Xiao Huan, go get my jewelry box."
"Miss, you...!" Xiaohuan couldn't help but show a reluctant look. You must know that her young lady has not officially left the court yet. Although she has the title of oiran, her income is very little.
"Xiaohuan, don't you even listen to what I say?" Su Niang's tone couldn't help but become a little harsher.
"It's Miss!"
Xiaohuan responded aggrievedly and went to get the jewelry box, but Housekeeper Ma was even more sure that Su Niang was going to intercede on behalf of the boy. He couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart. Suddenly, there was a bit of heat and lust in his eyes. Damn it, since She asked me to take some advantage first.
Thinking of this, he stretched out his hands to hug Su Niang. However, Su Niang knew that this person was cunning and cunning, so she had been on guard for a long time. When she saw him coming, she quickly stepped aside and let Guanshi Ma hold him empty. He shouted sternly: "Manager Ma, what do you want to do? If you dare to do anything wrong again, I will inform the big boss of your behavior."
Hearing the name of the big boss, Manager Ma couldn't help but froze and said with a smile: "Why should Su Niang be angry? I'm just joking with you!"
Su Niang's face darkened: "It's better to make less jokes like this, otherwise the big boss will find out, and Manager Ma may not be able to please him!"
"Su Niang is absolutely right, it's me, Meng Lang!" Manager Ma quickly apologized, but he cursed in his heart. Xiao Niangpi really takes herself seriously. I'll see how I deal with you after you leave the cabinet.
Soon, Xiaohuan reluctantly arrived holding an exquisite jewelry box.
"Here you go, miss."
Su Niang took the jewelry box, looked at Ma Guanshi and said, "Ma Guanshi, the young master outside just accidentally bumped into Mr. Zhou. Can you please let him go in my name?"
"hey-hey!"
Hearing this, Manager Ma sneered secretly, Damn it, you dared to scold me just now, but now you have asked for my name. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneer again and again: "Su Niang, you have to know, that kid is beaten Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou is the son of the Palace Master, don’t talk about me, even if I am the big boss, the Palace Master cannot bear the blame once he is blamed!"
Su Niang's heart sank, and she presented the jewelry box in her hand: "Please ask Manager Ma for convenience. This is Su Niang's wish!"
Manager Ma took the jewelry box, opened it, and found that the several pieces of jewelry inside were of high quality. If resold, they could fetch at least several hundred taels, so he put them away calmly and said, "Let that kid go. I'm taking a big risk, and Su Niang doesn't have enough!"
"These jewelry are all my belongings. If you help me this time, Manager Ma, I will remember your kindness. When I make money in the future, I will honor you again!"
Manager Ma sneered: "I won't be able to wait that long in the future. In this way, as long as you let me get addicted to handcraft, maybe I will be more generous and spare that kid outside!"
"You are shameless!" Hearing this, Su Niang couldn't help but become furious.
"Hehe, it's up to you whether you agree or not!" Manager Ma said with a sinister smile, but in his heart he planned to catch the kid after he got over his hand addiction.
A look of hesitation flashed across Su Niang's face.
"Don't think too long, Su Niang. Once the government troops arrive, even if I want to help, I won't be able to help!" Manager Ma urged.
"Okay, I promise you! I hope you keep your promise!" Su Niang said while holding back her nausea. She felt extremely sad when she thought about being scorned by the person in front of her, but when she thought about saving the life of the young man outside, her heart filled with tears. The sadness was reduced a bit.
In the corridor, Song Yan, who had a clear view of what happened in the room, was quite touched. He didn't expect Su Niang to make such a big sacrifice for him.
inside the room.
Seeing Su Niang agree, Manager Ma couldn't help but be overjoyed and couldn't wait to reach out his hands to hug Su Niang.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Su Niang and kicked out.
With a "bang" sound, Steward Ma screamed and flew out.
"You, you are such a silly girl, how could you wrong yourself like this for me?" Song Yan looked at Su Niang with pity.
Hearing Song Yan's pitiful words, Su Niang felt warm in her heart, but thinking of Song Yan's situation, she couldn't help but urge: "Master, jump out of the window in my room and escape!"
Song Yan couldn't bear Su Niang's worry anymore and said softly: "Don't worry, there's no need to run away. Don't say that Mr. Zhou is the son of the palace lord. Even if the emperor's son comes, he can't do anything to me!"
Su Niang didn't believe Song Yan's words, and still persuaded her: "Master, I believe everything you say, you'd better avoid the limelight first!"
Xiao Huan on the side couldn't stand it anymore and snorted coldly: "I know how to tell lies. My young lady was almost taken advantage of by that bad guy because of you."
"Xiaohuan, don't talk nonsense."
Su Niang scolded Xiao Huan softly. Seeing that Song Yan still refused to leave, she couldn't help but reach out and push him towards the window: "Young master, hurry up!"
At this moment, the group of thugs rushed in.
Manager Ma, who was kicked away, struggled to get up from the ground and shouted angrily: "Hurry, catch that kid, don't let him escape!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen thugs swung their sticks at Song Yan.
"snort!"
With a cold snort, all the more than ten thugs trembled as if they were struck by lightning, and froze on the spot. Then, Song Yan waved his hand, and saw all the thugs flying up and falling down in the corridor, forming a pile of Arhats. .
Seeing this scene, Su Niang and maid Xiao Huan were stunned with shock on their faces.
When Manager Ma saw this scene, his eyes were more horrified. He had learned boxing and kicking skills for a few days. He could throw more than ten people several meters into the air with just one wave of his hand. This was definitely a great level of skill. , and the young man in front of him is naturally one of those martial arts masters who come and go. I want to keep him, but I am afraid I can't. If this kid escapes, the trouble will be big.
