Unexpectedly, Xie Shensi turned gloomy and said angrily, "What did you two, mother and daughter, do during my absence?!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Lu immediately turned down her face and said, "Have you listened to that vixen's nonsense again? Have I ever done anything?"
Seeing her being so stubborn, Xie Shensi became more and more sure that what Aunt Liu said was the truth, and immediately became furious and said, "You didn't do anything, Lan'er will have a high fever. If you didn't do anything, my mother will punish you." Are you grounded for a month? The most poisonous woman’s heart is that you won’t even let your own daughter go!”
Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, and then said sharply, "Master, you were really stunned by the vixen. You came to question me as soon as you came back. Why didn't you ask what others did to your precious daughter? She was beaten on the bed. Where were you when, where were you when she was framed, and to say this now, it is really cold. If I want to pamper my concubine and destroy my wife, just divorce me and marry your daughter hastily That’s all, why bother letting the two of us suffer here!”
The more Ms. Lu talked about it, the sadder she became. Finally, she sat on the ground and burst into tears, shouting, "It's really impossible to live this day. Lan'er has endured so many grievances on weekdays, but now, her father actually listens to him. Lan'er's life is so miserable if she doesn't even let her make the decision!"
Her crying made Xie Shensi speechless. He looked at Madam Lu, who was looking more and more like a shrew, with some dumbfounded eyes. He waved his sleeves and said immediately, "Humph, I don't care about you as a woman!"
After saying that, he walked away.
As soon as Xie Shensi left, Mrs. Lu felt that the fire in her heart became stronger and stronger. She smashed everything in the house, and then sat on the messy ground and cried loudly.
Seeing Xie Shensi leave and return with a face full of anger, a proud smile suddenly appeared on Mrs. Liu's face. She quickly ordered people to fetch the best flower carvings, and then cooked a few specialty side dishes herself. She gently served Xie Shensi while he ate and rested.
On the one hand, he was as unreasonable as a tigress, and on the other hand, he was a tender and sweet little girl. Xie Shensi felt that the fatigue of the past half month had dissipated under Liu's tenderness, and he became even more gentle towards Liu at that moment.
Ever since Liu Yun was promoted as a concubine, Xie Shensi rarely came to her yard. Now that Xie Shensi was willing to come, Mrs. Liu was so happy that she used all her tricks to seduce Xie Shensi and slept with her for three nights.
The wind in the yard was always quick to change the direction of the wind. Seeing Aunt Liu regaining power and Mrs. Zheng being restrained by the old lady, she began to please Ms. Liu more and more.
Mrs. Liu was so proud of her success that she couldn't help but become frivolous in her words. In the evening, she mentioned Xie Ruyin's marriage to Xie Shensi again, "Sir, although Yin'er is still young now, her daughter's family needs to make plans early after all. I thought, master, you have seen a lot outside." Guang, you should also worry about your daughter’s marriage.”
Xie Shensi was feeling comfortable when she pressed her forehead, so she said casually, "What kind of in-law do you want to find for Yin'er?"
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she said happily, "Yin'er is a concubine, so we don't expect her to be rich and have enough food and clothing. It's just that the concubines in the second wife are all married to Taotai's sons. Naturally, our family's Yin'er can't compare with her." She’s not too good at marrying.”
After Xie Shensi came back a few days ago, Ji asked him to beat him up the next day and told him about the scandal Xie Rulan had done. Xie Shensi was so angry that he almost turned over the table.
He had been getting angry because of this matter in the past two days, and now Mrs. Liu started to carry the pot of unboiled water again. My daughter, she has both moral integrity and talent, so she will naturally marry into a good family!"
After saying this, Xie Shensi put on her shoes and left.
The smile on Ms. Liu's face had not yet faded away, and she froze in place instantly. She didn't even know what she said wrong, and she saw Xie Shensi striding out.
It was a coincidence that Xie Shensi went out. As soon as he went out, he heard the boy reporting back, "Master Liu from Huichun Residence is here."
Liu Li had always had business dealings with him. Xie Shensi immediately thought it was something urgent and hurriedly went to the front office. Unexpectedly, as soon as Liu Li saw him, he immediately smiled slyly and said, "Master Xie, I will take you to a good place today. If you are late, there will be no room left!"
Xie Shensi was stunned for a moment, but as a man, he soon understood where the "good place" he was talking about was. He smiled and said, "Brother Liu, let me go change my clothes."
The place Liu Li took him to was indeed the Chu Pavilion, a brothel called Yunxiang Pavilion, which was the number one brothel in the capital. And tonight is the night when the courtesan Yun Rong blooms.
After entering Yunxiang Building, I smelled the aroma first. I followed the aroma all the way until I reached the second building and saw a huge word "rong" written on it, and Yun Rong was in the building. Auction here.
Many people had already gathered in the huge hall. Liu Li had obviously booked a private room and led Xie Shensi up to the third floor.
The curtain cage of the box is raised, and the stage in the hall is clearly visible. Xie Shensi sat down with Liu Li, and then a delicate-looking maid walked in, knelt down beside them, poured tea and water, and rubbed her back and shoulders.
Although Xie Shensi came to the brothel in the past, she did not receive such attentive service as today. After smelling the fragrance of her daughter's body, she immediately grabbed one of the maid's hands and squeezed it slowly.
The maid didn't hide away, but gave her a smile and a look that was charming to the core.
Xie Shensi's heart was filled with anger. Just as he was about to hold the maid in his arms, he saw that all the lights in the hall were extinguished in an instant.
Everyone looked at the only light and saw flower petals falling from the third floor, as if there was a rain of flowers. Amidst the fragrant aroma, a woman wearing only a light gauze and holding a red ribbon slowly fell from the third floor. Her exquisite and graceful body was looming, which made people's blood surge and blood surge.
Suddenly she heard the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music playing, and the woman stood firm at this time. She pulled down the red ribbon and put it on her body, and her soft waist danced gracefully. There was a song smiling, and the saying was, "There is a beautiful woman in the northern country, left behind and independent. A smile can captivate a city, and another smile can captivate a country. Little does anyone know that a beautiful city or a country can be captivated, and it's hard to find a beautiful woman again!"
The singing ended and the dancing stopped. The woman still held the red silk in her hand, but her steps were slightly messy, which showed her current state. She was sweating slightly and her breath was slightly messy.
The gauze on her body clings to her delicate body, and the bright red silk is messily wrapped around her body, which makes people have the urge to peel it apart so as to pry into its secrets.
Xie Shensi was aroused by this woman. Seeing the dance pause for a long time, she asked, "Who is this woman?"
Liu Li took his reaction into consideration, and the sinister light in his eyes flashed away, and then he smiled evilly and said, "She is the famous Yun Rong girl, and what is going to be auctioned tonight is her first night." !”
Hearing this, Xie Shensi's mind suddenly moved, and then he looked at Yun Rong like a wolf.
But Yun Rong seemed to be aware of it. At this moment, he raised his eyes and looked towards Xie Shensi. The beauty's every frown and smile were charming, especially this flirtatious look in her eyes, which made Xie Shensi freeze half of her body.
Not long after, I saw the old madam Shi Ran coming onto the stage, waving a handkerchief and saying with a smile, "Masters, today is the day for our girl Yun Rong to bloom. We still follow the old rules, the one with the highest price gets it!"
As soon as the Madam finished speaking, Yun Rong retreated into the shadows, looking at everyone with only a pair of eyes. She grew up in a brothel since she was a child, so she naturally knows what kind of appearance is most attractive to men. Just now she was hot and enchanting, but now she lowered her eyes and her whole body looked pitiful and painful, which even made the men in the audience crazy and fascinated.
The man in the audience repeatedly called the price several times, and then heard that the price had increased from the original one hundred taels of silver to eight hundred taels! Yun Rong, on the other hand, listened silently, not even looking at the people in the audience. Because she knows that none of these people can get her. And the person who can really get her—
"I'll pay five thousand taels!"
A man's shout was heard, and everyone immediately looked towards the source of the sound. In the box on the third floor, a man in his thirties stood up with a proud look on his face.
It was Xie Shensi.
When they heard his price, the others took a deep breath. Five thousand taels was enough to cover the expenses of a wealthy family for a year. This man was too generous!
The madam had already smiled and said, "Masters, is there a higher price than this one?"
The audience was silent for a moment. The madam got a good price and was not upset. She just said with satisfaction, "In this case, our girl Yun Rong will belong to this man tonight! Someone, send girl Yun Rong to the room and wait for the distinguished guest!" "
Liu Li looked at Xie Shensi with a playful look on his face. It wasn't until the latter turned around that he made a congratulatory expression and joked, "Brother Xie, don't keep the beauty waiting for a long time. Go quickly."
Xie Shensi's mind had long been fascinated by Yun Rong, and she smiled rudely and said, "In that case, I will go first, Brother Liu, your debt will be put on my head tonight, and it will be settled another day." As a brother, it’s up to you to tell me!”
After saying that, Xie Shensi eagerly went to Yun Rong's room under the leadership of the maid.
But Liu Li behind him stopped smiling immediately after he left. After asking for the man's location, he looked around for no one before walking towards the last building.
Before entering the room, I could smell the aroma lingering inside, and the sound of a beautiful woman breathing could be heard, which caused the tables and chairs inside to make even more noise.
Liu Li stood at the door without changing his expression. He waited until the noise inside stopped, then he knocked softly on the door and said, "Sir, the matter has been settled."
There was only a creaking sound, and the door was opened, and then a voluptuous woman said, "No, come in."
There was a man sitting on the table in the room, his clothes hanging loosely on his body. It was obvious that he had just experienced a love affair, and there was an aura of lewdness everywhere.
The woman had already left out obediently when Liu Li came in. When she left the house, she did not forget to close the door firmly.
The man then turned around and saw that it was Xiao Junyi, the fifth prince of the current dynasty!
"He went in?"
Xiao Junyi smiled coldly and rubbed the finger in his hand with interest.
Liu Li said respectfully, "Yes, judging from his appearance, he seems to be very satisfied with Yun Rong. I think this chess piece has been used now."
"That's good." Xiao Junyi snorted and said, "Tell Yun Rong to use all her means to keep Xie Shensi's heart for me!"
"I understand, master, please rest assured." After Liu Li said these words respectfully, Xiao Junyi waved his hand to signal him to go down.
Liu Li didn't waste much time, saluted again, and then slowly withdrew.
