Dirty talk was probably the best tonic to warm up the relationship between men and women. Of course, the premise was that the man and woman did not dislike each other at the beginning. Xiyi invited the Young Master with a saber into the house largely because of the situation. After drinking two pots of wine and a few teasing words, she finally felt some warmth that had nothing to do with the ways of the world. This was attributed to the decent manner of the scholar with a saber in front of her, and the fact that he had a simple child with him. It made him seem more pleasing to the eye compared to the rough brothel patrons who would tear off their faces after entering the brothel. In the brothel, even the refined scholars would look at the women after they took off their clothes. Hsu Fengnian accidentally got the information he wanted and was ready to get up and leave the house. After going to the Embroidered Ball Pavilion, he could leave the Guanghan Building. Whether he could follow the vine to find the top scholar who sold the sword, and whether he was related to the man Xu Xiao wanted him to find, would depend on fate. Xiyi's ability to observe people's expressions was perfect. Seeing that he did not have the intention to pester her, she was relieved but also a little disappointed. After all, she was old and no longer had the beauty that could make men crazy. She stood up with Hsu Fengnian and saw that the little girl on the bed was sleeping coquettishly. She was happy from the bottom of her heart and smiled, "Young Master, if it's not presumptuous, I will give the little girl a porcelain pillow. The little girl's name is Xiyi Xiyi, and her name is similar to mine. It can be considered fate."
Hsu Fengnian was surprised, "Sister Xiyi is really willing to give it to her?"
Xiyi threw a coquettish glance and said coquettishly, "If Young Master wants a black glazed cup, Xiyi will not be willing to give it to her. I will give her a porcelain pillow that is not worth much. Consider it as forming a good relationship with the little girl. I am willing to give it to her."
Hsu Fengnian sighed, "Sister Xiyi is so considerate. It is disrespectful to accept it. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely return the gift. "
Xiyi waved his hand and smiled, "Don't. I don't have any ulterior motives for giving the little girl a porcelain pillow. If you return the gift, you will be at a disadvantage."
Hsu Fengnian didn't insist. He thought that if he could safely return to Beiliang, there was a set of black glazed lamps in the Prince's Mansion that the late Emperor of Southern Tang had held tightly to before his death. It could be said to be an immortal item. If there was a chance, he wouldn't mind giving it to this good-natured brothel girl. In any case, leaving it in the Prince's Mansion would be a waste of natural resources. Top-quality tea sets were similar to some priceless tea pets. If they were placed on a shelf and not touched by people or soaked in tea for a long time, they would lose their spiritual energy. It was the same principle as how people raised jade. However, there was no harm in not talking about this kind of unsettled matter at the moment. He walked over and pinched Tao Manwu's little nose. She was as sleepy as other girls her age and had a bad temper when she woke up. When her nose was pinched, she would randomly punch and kick. Hsu Fengnian had a hard time teasing her awake. When Tao Manwu saw that it was Hsu Fengnian and not her parents, the little girl suddenly lowered her head and burst into tears. Hsu Fengnian didn't console her and said softly, "Taozi, wake up. Sister Xiyi saw that you are cute and gave you a porcelain pillow. Quickly, thank her."
Tao Manwu wiped her cheeks with her sleeve and looked up with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Xiyi."
Xiyi's heart softened and she said softly, "Good girl."
Hsu Fengnian took out a few banknotes and put them on the table. He held the little girl who was hugging the porcelain pillow and said apologetically with a smile, "I won't disturb Miss Wei today. Here is the deposit. I will come back tomorrow. Our Taozi has a bad temper when she wakes up. If I don't let her sleep well, she won't be happy for the next few days. "
Xiyi didn't have time to be rude and said softly, "Why don't you go to Miss Wei's Embroidered Ball Pavilion and let the little girl sleep here?"
She added flatly, "If you don't find it dirty."
Xu Fengnian shook his head. He noticed that his sleeves were being pulled. Seeing the reluctance in the eyes of the little girl in his arms, Xu Fengnian frowned. The two girls, one big and one small, became nervous. Of course, Xu Fengnian didn't want Tao Manwu to stay together with Joy, who had cultivated into a spirit. If there was any mistake, Xu Fengnian would kill him without hesitation. However, how would they know about the inside story that was filled with thick blood qi? As they wished. How many people and how many things were as they wished? Hsu Fengnian, whose hearing wasn't inferior to that of a top crypt master, slightly trembled. As expected, unpleasant things came knocking on his door. Hsu Fengnian forcibly suppressed the killing intent in his heart. He didn't know why, but after the death battle with the demon Xie Ling at the Duck Head Green Inn, he didn't draw his saber and gained enough energy. The saber will in the scabbard skyrocketed, but the killing intent in his heart also rose. However, Li Chungang had already retired from Jianghu and wasn't by his side. Otherwise, he would definitely ask whether this was good or bad. Hsu Fengnian was really worried that when the time came, he wouldn't be able to raise the dragon-slaying saber will and become a demon who killed people like flies. Hsu Fengnian silently recited the chant of the Great Yellow Court and calmed his mind. He looked at the door and heard a hurried knock. Hsu Fengnian was surprised. Other than Wei Manxiu, who she regarded as her daughter, no one else would come, and Xiu 'er's knock wouldn't be so stiff. Hsu Fengnian took a deep breath and went to open the door. She saw Sister Cui with a playful smile. Hsu Fengnian also had a thunder pool that she couldn't touch, and this room was it. Just as she was about to speak with a cold face, she saw a tall woman dressed as a man standing behind Hsu Fengnian. Hsu Fengnian suddenly stopped and swallowed her words. She respectfully bowed and said, "Hsu Fengnian greets the third miss."
The woman who didn't have the appearance of a charming and graceful woman was quite heroic. She wore a jade belt brocade robe like a rich man and had a long saber hanging on her waist. She said unhappily, "It's the third young master!"
Hsu Fengnian's mouth was bitter. She lowered her head and said, "Hsu Fengnian greets the third young master."
The backer behind Guanghan Tower had come.
To be precise, it was the backer's sister. People couldn't imagine that Guanghan Tower was opened by the second young master of the Flying Fox City. This semi-public secret was only known by the upper class of the city. The dragon had nine sons, and the lord of the city had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Tantai Changping, was brave and heroic. He was also good at writing beautiful poems. He was destined to be the most popular scholar in Beimang in the future. Once he became the bell-chaser, he would be the most popular person in the royal court around the emperor. He would be like a bright moon jumping out of the tide and enter the vision of the top nobles in Beimang. The whole Flying Fox City was waiting to see him. But the second young master of the city, Tantai Changan, was a complete debauchee. He wasn't proficient in literature or martial arts, but he ate, drank, whored, gambled, trained eagles, led dogs, and fought crickets. He was proficient in everything. Just in the breeding and trading of crickets, he had spent no less than three to four thousand taels of silver. Because the second young master of the city loved to fight crickets, every year starting from the seventh month, it was unknown how many idle hoodlums would scour the city for crickets. They hated that they couldn't dig three feet into the ground to catch a fighting cricket worth several dozen taels of gold. It was no wonder that people joked that Flying Fox City had a fifth freak. The young daughter of the city overseer, Tantai Konghou, did not like women in makeup but loved weapons. She frequently fought in the bustling streets. Practically all of the city's hoodlums, big and small, had suffered. They already recognized her appearance, and when they saw her, they would take a detour, not giving her the opportunity to beat people up.
The one standing in front of Xiyi was Tantai Konghou. Looking over Xiyi's shoulder, she saw Hsu Fengnian and said in a strange tone: "Xiyi, I heard that you brought an extraordinary guest into the Embroidered Ball Pavilion and even showed off your skills in front of Mama Cui. This young master went to the Embroidered Ball Pavilion to take a look, but there was no sign of him. I didn't expect that he really was here. Xiyi, ah, Xiyi, I previously heard second brother say that you were the most authentic in the Guanghan Tower. Why do I feel that this is not the case? First, you secretly took the job, and now you're eating it yourself? Didn't you cut the silk in accordance with the brothel's rules and no longer receive guests? You made an exception for such an unremarkable young man? Have you gone crazy thinking about men? I heard Mama Cui say that these past few years, you've mostly used Sir Yu Ruyi to pass the spring. How about you let this young master gain some experience? "
This influential woman's imposing manner was overbearing, without the slightest bit of misgivings. Every sentence pierced the heart and bone, each word piercing the spine.
Xiyi forced a smile and said: "I only drank two pots of wine with this young master and did my best to entertain guests. Xiyi did not receive any guests. If there truly is a day when Xiyi makes a comeback, Xiyi will certainly first inform the third young master before daring to act. "
Mama Cui clicked her tongue and said: "Little sister Xiyi is truly an honest person. She deserves to be called a loyal woman who will dedicate her life to the Guanghan Tower."
Tantai Konghou angrily rebuked: "Shut your mouth. You don't have the right to add insult to injury. Xiyi is not a good thing. You're the same as her. If she's lacking, how much better can you be!"
Mama Cui stammered, keeping quiet out of fear.
Hsu Fengnian, who was watching from the sidelines, laughed in his heart. Don't look at this little girl's poisonous mouth. She actually knew how to be impartial. She wasn't the kind of stubborn young girl who would listen to the wind and listen to the rain. Mama Cui's move of fanning the flames was a profit, but the profit was limited.
