At this moment, there is a dispute in Huayue Building in the north of Zhenbei. Mother Feng, who had worked hard all night yesterday, slept until noon today. She is busy preparing to open the door to welcome guests. Although the business in the afternoon is not as lively as in the evening, there will be a large number of literati drinking and listening to music in this place, and they can also earn a little money for drinking.
When Mama Feng was walking down the stairs, she was stopped by a girl from behind her. Mama Feng immediately looked back, her face was full of smiles, and the creases on her face were filled with an unknown amount of powder , the falling white flour can even fall and kill flies, it is none other than Xiao Taohong who is going to cultivate a generation of oiran in that building with all her heart.
"Yo, it turns out to be Miss Taohong. She got up so early, why don't you hurry back to your room and rest, and when guests come in the evening, you must let those rich young masters surround you. You are our boss. The hope of the future, Mom, I am still waiting for you to send the white silver to my treasure box."
Mother Feng is very kind to these girls who can earn money for herself in the future. For nothing else, it is not easy to cultivate a cash cow in their line of work, and it will fade away after a few years, let alone in This remote town in the northwest is not as good as Goulan in those big cities and big towns. There are several mothers taking care of girls. The temple in Lingxi Town is small. If you work harder by yourself and bring a few more, you can earn more money. There are not many girls in the building. If you don¡¯t treat them well and refuse to serve the guests well, then this Huayue Building will be suspended. Huayue Building has only had two oirans in so many years, and they all followed the dignitaries in the end. After all, now that she has a good seed again, she is not willing to give up just like that.
Xiao Taohong didn't speak, but showed a distressed expression. The small eyes like sesame mung beans rolled on Feng's mother's fat face, and she immediately smiled and said, "Xiao Taohong, do you want to buy some makeup powder from Yangzhou recently and have no money?" No, it doesn't matter, mom has it here, just tell mom what you want, mom can satisfy you, I heard that Yangzhou's makeup powder has a new style, and it smells delicious when applied on your handsome little face, no You know how many young masters you can fall under your pomegranate skirt."
"Mother Feng, no, I'm not short of money, it's just" Xiao Taohong hesitated again and again, and finally dared to speak out her heart, but seeing the old bustard's smiling face, she didn't know how to speak , I was trafficked into Huayue Tower since I was a child, and I heard other girls who have seen the world often talk about how wonderful the outside world is, and the guests who come and go often mention these things in front of her face, and I don¡¯t know Since when did he have the idea of ??leaving Huayuelou, and since he met Zhao Xiaowu, this idea has become stronger in his heart.
"Little Taohong, could it be that someone bullied you, or did you hear someone gossip about you? Is it a servant from our building or a guest from outside? Don't take it to heart. If you are in our line of business, are you rich today?" Uncle, if you have no money tomorrow, you will be a beggar on the side of the road. I won¡¯t even take a look. If you are a servant in our building, you can tell your mother that she will teach you a lesson for those third grandchildren who have no seeds. If the girl Yu Chang likes dares to be bullied, it's against him."
"No, Mother Feng, I just"
"Just what? Tell me quickly, don't let my mother get angry in a hurry. The weather has turned cold in the past few days, and I have several small sores in my nose and eyes. Don't let my mother worry. Hurry up." Tell me, my little aunt, even if Mom begs you, can't you do it?" Mother Feng urged anxiously, as if there was nothing more urgent than the matter in front of her.
"Mother Feng, I wantI want to redeem myself." When Xiao Taohong said this, she was holding onto the railing of the stairs with all her strength, her body trembling a little, as if she had exhausted all her strength when she said these words. The strength is average, but when she really finished speaking, she felt empty in her heart. An indescribable feeling arose spontaneously and made her freeze there, and she chopped off a few fingernails, but at this time she felt uncomfortable. to that pain.
"What did you say? Xiao Taohong, do you dare to say it again!" Feng's mother was in a hurry. I don't know how many girls in this building have fantasized about leaving here. If all of them can do what they want, my Huayue Whether the building is still open or not, if it weren't for some unspeakable secrets at the time, who would want to sell their own daughters or abducted girls to this barn? However, being an old bustard naturally has the principles of an old bustard. Since you have sent the girl in, the deed of sale is also written clearly and clearly, then this girl is the girl in the Goulan, and the singing and playing are the same. What they should do, nothing else.
"Mother Feng, I want to redeem myself." Xiao Taohong said weakly, all her strength had been exhausted when she said those words just now, and she felt a little exhausted at this moment.
"Okay you little girl, old lady, I intend to train you, let you get in touch with those dignitaries, so that you can earn more money, but you are good, ungrateful little bastard, buried in a stinking puddle Rotten rocks, why don¡¯t oil and salt come in? Is it because God is blind or you, a little bastard, are just wolfish ambitions. Don¡¯t forget, when you were begging on the street with your father, it was my mother who took you away. Come in and have a full meal, you are the one who begged for nothing to leave here, and now you want to leave, but there is no way, don't think that you can make people feel sorry for you by singing some simple words in front of the guests You, take you out of Huayue Tower, I will tell you today, if you are a wooden fish for a day, you will be a wooden fish for the rest of your life, you cannot escape."
Mother Feng went up the stairs angrily, swearing, saying whatever was hard to hear, trying to use this method to completely break Xiao Taohong's heart that was not strong at all, and kept poking Xiao Taohong's heart with that finger that could kill people. Taohong's temples, Xiao Taohong's head swayed from side to side with the old bustard's fingers, and she felt her head was groggy. Suddenly, there seemed to be a ray of light in her heart, and an inexplicable courage filled her heart. Without even thinking about it, with the help of this force, he grabbed Mama Feng's fingers and pouted, Mama Feng quickly let her go in pain.
However, Xiao Taohong was already overwhelmed by a wave of anger at this time, she pouted her finger and shouted at the old bustard: "I am determined to leave Huayue Tower today and live the life I want. Are you willing or not!"
"Let go, let go, come, come! Come, come!" As Mother Feng yelled, many sleepy and disheveled girls came out of their room rubbing their eyes, wanting to see What exactly happened, I saw a few guards rushing up from downstairs, and they grabbed Xiao Taohong. Mother Feng straightened her clothes and stood aside, cursing angrily. Watching the weak woman spew away, these words not only made the girls feel wronged, but also made the guards gnash their teeth after hearing it, it was really terrifying.
"Mother Feng, I just want to see the outside world. Please don't restrain me anymore. I can agree to any conditions you have. I beg Mother Feng to show you a noble hand and let me go."
Xiao Taohong was crying, and no matter who saw it, she felt a little distressed, but the well-informed mother Feng didn't accept this at all, and cursed loudly: "Little girl, who is your mother? You died, your father sent you to me for foster care, and I gave your father money back. All these years, my old mother, I have provided you with food, clothing, and rouge. Did that ever treat you badly? Is this how you treat my old lady? You little bastard, a little bastard who has suffered thousands of knives, and still wants to escape from me, it's a dream."
Feng Yuchang was enjoying his words, and immediately turned his gun and shouted at the girls who were watching: "Not only her, but you all listen well, since you have come to my Huayue Tower, you will be safe and sound." Follow the rules here, if there are still people who dare to break the ban, don't blame the old lady for being rude to you, her today is your future!" With a shout, those girls who still had the heart to continue watching the fun immediately returned to their own The door of the room, in case the "fire of war" suddenly burned himself.
"Hmph, Xiao Taohong, who do you think you are? I'm the only one who treats you as a human being in this building. You're a shit out of Huayue Tower. Calling you Xiao Taohong is to give you some face for your beauty. , if my old lady is happy that day, she will make a trick for your beautiful face, so that you will be an ugly monster for the rest of your life. How dare you ask me to redeem your body? If you want to redeem yourself, you can bring me a thousand taels of silver, as long as you can I'll let you go when I get it, don't blame me for not reminding you, if you have a hard time leaving Huayue Tower, don't come back and embarrass your sisters!"
"Mother Feng, I have money. As long as you let me go, I will give you all my money. I beg you to let me go."
Feng Yuchang winked, indicating to press Xiao Taohong to withdraw money from her room, but to see how much money he had spent with guests in Huayuelou in the past few years, and every account was in his own account book It is clearly recorded in the book that it is impossible for Xiao Taohong to have a thousand taels of silver. However, when Xiao Taohong took out all her valuables, Feng Yuchang was dumbfounded. In total, she had more than nine hundred taels of silver. This unavoidably surprised her, but a gleam of relief flashed in her heart, as expected of the person she was looking for, with a lot of money-making skills, but she forgot that Zhao Xiaowu only drank and didn't eat food when he came here many times Yes, almost all the money collected from the Chu family's bodyguard team was handed over to Xiao Taohong, and there were hundreds of taels of silver.
"Mother Feng, can I go?" Xiao Taohong was crying, because she couldn't get enough money anyway.
"Hmph, isn't this a little bit close? There just happened to be a distinguished guest coming tonight. You are responsible for accompanying me. If you have the ability to make up the remaining one hundred taels of silver, I will let you go. If you don't make up enough, you can rest assured." Stay here with me forever."
"Mama Feng is serious?"
"Six mules can't catch up with one word!" Feng Yuchang has never read any books, but he has heard many literati say such words. He still remembered the following sentence, but was suddenly shocked by Xiao Taohong's anger. Tongue tied, forgot what the second half of the sentence was, and there were six mules.
At this moment, Pei Yuanying and Black Bear General Zhu Jianlong were on their way to Lingxi Town.Let you go, if you don't make enough, you can stay with me for the rest of your life with peace of mind. "
