Chapter 394 Rules
As soon as the man left, two waiters immediately brought in the food politely.
As soon as they walked out of the house, Hongxiulou's mother came into the house with a smile on her face, looking very proud and then closed the door.
To be honest, Yingliu is still confused.
She had been in Shattered Red Mansion for several years and was used to big scenes. But she was totally overwhelmed by what happened today.
What does this man mean?
What does it mean to kiss by pinching the chin?
What does it mean to kiss so vigorously?
This definitely doesn't mean being obsessed with beauty. It's clearly a way to vent repression, or... finally getting what you've longed for.
Why?
Also, he had just picked her up horizontally, so why did he suddenly stop? What was he thinking at that time?
Why did he leave in such anger yet leave her a safe enough way out when he left?
Who the hell is this person?
Ying Liu's mind was full of question marks. She turned around to meet Hong Xiu Lou's mother's smiling face that was also full of question marks.
Eye to eye…
The mother of Hongxiulou looked directly at Yingliu's lips that were swollen and broken by biting, and immediately laughed meaningfully, "Miss, you are very capable. To be honest with you, this gentleman has been to our Hongxiulou for seven or eight days in a row. Every day he comes to this private room, and every day he serves the best food and wine, but he never asks for anything from you,
Those who make a living here all rely on their youth. I won't hide it from you, in our Hongxiu Tower, many girls are eyeing him, wanting to get a little bit of attention from him.
In the end, even our top card failed to impress them even a little bit.
Who would have thought that the girl would come and take him down right away. "
With her mouth like that, people already had the result in their minds without Yingliu saying anything. This result was exactly what Yingliu needed. As for what happened between her and this man, the man didn't say, and she would not mention it.
The man didn't even reveal her name, and when he left the money outside, he still called her "Miss Jiaojiao".
Mother took Yingliu's hand and sat down at the table with a kind look on her face.
Six dishes and a soup were neatly arranged on the table. Mother personally took the spoon and served Yingliu a bowl of soup. She looked kind and gentle, like a person who does good deeds. She said, "My daughter, you have great abilities and can keep people around. You were born to do this. Look at how lively you made the place when you were downstairs today.
You should know that competition in our industry is fierce.
You have made a name for yourself here. The other brothels must be jealous and will try every means to poach people from me.
I am not afraid of poaching. To be honest with you, I dare to say this to you. Not to mention looking at the whole Yulin, even looking at Xianyang, there may not be any brothel that can compare to the care and consideration that my Hongxiu Tower provides to girls.
Especially someone like you, the entire Hongxiu Tower will not treat you unfairly.
Hongxiu Tower will let you live the same life as the rich lady does.
What am I afraid of? I am afraid that those people will find some crooked ways to harm people if they can’t find anyone.
If we are upright, we have nothing to fear. No matter what they do, it will be useless. Mom is telling you, we have people behind us. But if you have any personal matters that are likely to cause trouble, you must tell me in advance. If not for anything else, I have to prepare and prevent in advance, so that others will not take advantage of your weaknesses to harm you. I don’t know how to protect you, understand?”
This was to inquire about her background. Ying Liu took the small bowl and drank the soup. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, mom. I'm clean. To be honest, before I came to Hongxiu Tower, I was the daughter of a good family."
Mom's eyes lit up, "Then why do you want to go our way?"
Ying Liu said, "I have lost my home. It is obvious what will happen to me if I lose my home. Instead of being bullied by bullies, I might as well be the top star in this fireworks place. I can still enjoy glory for a while. When I am no longer glorious, I can talk about the future. At least in the next few years, I can live a good life.
I just want to live, I have no other plans."
There is something else behind this statement.
If she told her mother directly that I was innocent and there was no problem at all, her mother would definitely not believe it . But she half-hid it and she believed it instead.
"Can you tell me why your home is gone?"
Ying Liu pursed her lips, with a sneer in her eyes, "There's nothing I can't tell you. My father used to be the steward of a great master's mansion in Kyoto. Later, that great master committed a crime and was arrested, and my father was also arrested.
The imperial court didn't say that they would arrest me too, but once my father was arrested, I was the only one left in my family. When the servants I had previously kept saw what had become of my family and knew that I had no one to rely on, they all became restless.
Not to mention stealing my family's property, they even set their sights on me.
I ran away from home.”
She deliberately used the word "escape", but this word did not arouse the vigilance of Hongxiulou's mother.
After all, it has nothing to do with the government and has no enemies. This is enough for Hongxiulou.
Mom looked at Yingliu and asked, "Did you escape from Kyoto?"
Ying Liu shook her head, "No, I'm from Huaiyang, my family is from Huaiyang, and my father works in Kyoto."
"Your father is in Kyoto, and you are in Huaiyang?"
"There are also relatives at home. Several of my uncles and aunts are in Huaiyang. I live with my relatives, but after my father got into trouble..."
Ying Liu didn't continue talking, but just sighed softly.
This sigh meant the fickleness of human nature, and her mother understood it very well. She patted Yingliu's hand and said, "Good child, it's okay. Our Hongxiulou is a place where you have to rely on your ability to make a living. As long as you are capable, no one can bully you.
Having said that, when that gentleman left, he bought out all your days, so others had no chance to bully you.
It's like being at home here, just tell us what you want to eat or use.
Let me tell you about the rules here.
In fact, there are no special rules. There is only one rule: all the money earned by the girls here from entertaining customers belongs to Hongxiulou. At the end of each month, Hongxiulou will give you dividends in proportion to your income from entertaining customers.
Put it this way, the more you earn, the more you get at the end of the month.
Of course, if a guest gives you any jewelry such as hairpins, earrings, or necklaces, they are yours and Hongxiulou will not interfere.
Of course, your food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, drink, and defecation are all covered by Hongxiulou. You don't have to worry about anything and just live here peacefully. Since the gentleman has spent a lot of money, you can live here in the snow for a few days. Any arrangements in the future will depend on your progress.
By the way, what’s your father’s name? I’d like to ask a friend to find out for you and see if he can be saved.”
