Chapter 395: Chapter 395: The Ox Cart
After bidding farewell to Aunt Li, they got on the ox cart and headed for the town.
Soon, the ox cart arrived at the entrance of the town. Getting off, they walked along the streets, thinking about how the feast would consist of eating and drinking. As they walked, Big Bull looked down and asked, “Wife, are we going to the market?”
Xuexue shook her head, “No, we’re going to Spring Fragrance House first.”
Big Bull was taken aback and asked, “To find your father again?”
“No, to find the procuress.”
“Wife, that place isn’t suitable for a young lady like you.”
Xuexue said, unfazed, “What’s there to fear? If we’re upright, we don’t fear a crooked shadow, why worry about others gossiping?”
In her previous life, after Xuexue went to the Capital, she had seen the world’s pleasures and knew that the most profitable industry was the brothel. Today, she wanted to acquire a brothel because the day she returned to the Capital in her past life was drawing closer. She had to beco powerful in a short ti.
Seeing Xuexue’s determined face, Big Bull said helplessly, “Alright, if wife wants to go, I’ll accompany you.”
Soon, they arrived at the entrance of Spring Fragrance House.
The thugs at the door recognized her imdiately upon seeing her.
“Eh! Isn’t this the little girl who ca last ti?” one of the thugs said, looking at Xuexue. She had given them silver before, so his mory of her was fresh.
Xuexue smiled and said, “Yes! I have a favor to ask of you big brothers.” With that, she handed the two taels of silver she had to them.
Seeing the promise of silver, the thugs all crowded around her, asking, “What’s the matter? Tell us, little girl, and let’s see if we can help you.”
“As long as you’re willing, you definitely can.”
“What is it exactly?”
“Take
to the procuress here.”
The thugs’ eyes widened: “Whoa! Little girl, you’re not here to make trouble, are you? You can’t get us into trouble; we’re just working here.”
Xuexue said with a smile still on her face, “Don’t worry, I’m not here to create trouble. I’m here to help your boss make a fortune.”
Big Bull also chid in, saying, “That’s right, my wife is very clever. She says she’ll help your boss make a fortune, and she definitely will.”
Considering the several taels of silver given by Xuexue, the thugs cautioned again, “We’re helping you like this; you better not trick us, okay?”
Xuexue nodded, “Don’t worry, there’s no trick. Would I give you silver if I intended to deceive you? I’m not stupid, right?”
The thugs thought so too.
Only then did they lead Big Bull and Xuexue into Spring Fragrance House.
Passing through the hall with the singing and dancing, and many girls frolicking with the guests, they finally ca to the front of a secluded door.
The thug leading them stepped forward, knocked on the door, and called out, “Nanny Sun.”
“What is it?” ca an impatient reply from a middle-aged woman inside.
“A girl is looking for you.”
“This is really strange, are we short on girls at Spring Fragrance House? To have a girl co looking for , what does she look like? Ask her if she wants to sell herself, and how much silver she wants? I need to see the rchandise before I give silver, you know. If she looks good, the price will be higher, but if not, she won’t get much!” The procuress rattled off a long speech from inside.
Big Bull’s face grew darker and darker, and he called out coldly, “Keep spouting nonsense, and see if I don’t tear down this Spring Fragrance House.”
“Creak!”
“Oh! Where does this young ‘husband’ co from, with such a fiery temper!” As she spoke, the procuress had already opened the door and walked out from the room.
