Hearing Mu Qing tell Ru Si to behave herself, his friend laughed out loud. He looked at Mu Qing as if he was looking at an idiot and laughed: "Mu Qing, Mu Qing, do you know who Miss Ru Si is?"
Seeing Mu Qing's dazed and confused expression, his friend laughed again and shook his head: "Mu Qing, Mu Qing, you really are an idiot who doesn't understand the situation."
Who in the capital didn't know Miss Ru Si's name? Even high officials and nobles had to spend a lot of money to see Miss Ru Si. But Mu Qing, when Miss Ru Si specifically asked to see him, he came to tell her to behave herself.
Telling a woman to behave herself in a brothel, what was the difference between that and a eunuch going to a brothel?
His friend laughed and said: "I won't disturb you and Miss Ru Si, see you another day."
After he finished speaking, he walked out of the room and didn't forget to considerately close the door when he left.
After his friend left, Mu Qing's already stiff body became even stiffer. Sweat seeped out of his forehead because of his nervousness. He almost choked out: "Miss, please behave yourself."
Hearing Mu Qing tell her to behave herself again, Ru Si's lips curled into a smile. She raised her head and looked at Mu Qing's handsome face, saying angrily: "You really are an idiot."
Being called a bag again, Mu Qing's cheeks turned red, green, and yellow again, but his stiff body showed his resistance.
Seeing this, Ru Si could only sigh and get up from Mu Qing's body. She sat across from him and said in a low voice: "Ru Si has long heard of Young Master Mu's name. Meeting you today, Young Master is indeed a dragon among men."
In response to Ru Si's praise, Mu Qing said "Miss has praised me" and then sat where he was. His lowered eyes and lowered head was very serious. His abstinent appearance didn't make him look like a romantic scholar, but more like a monk.
Feeling Mu Qing's alienation from her, Ru Si frowned slightly and a trace of dissatisfaction appeared in her heart. But in the end, she still said patiently: "Does Young Master dislike this servant?"
Mu Qing's heart was indeed disdainful of Ru Si.
No matter how beautiful Ru Si was and how good her reputation was outside, in the old-fashioned Mu Qing's heart, a prostitute was a prostitute. Even if she was an artist, she was still a prostitute. Even if she finally turned over a new leaf, how good could a person who was used to staying in brothels be?
However, his disdain was pointed out by Ru Si, Mu Qing blushed and said embarrassedly: "I didn't."
"This servant, Young Master, I know you disdain me because I was born in a brothel." Ru Si raised raised raised Ru Si, and Ru Si raised her head and raised raised raised Ru Si's, Ru raised raised raised Ru raise of Ru Si raised Ru Ru: "this servant's Ru's, Ru, Ru is Ru Ru, Ru raised, Ru Ru Ru Ru u u u Ru Ru u u raised Ru ru Ru Ru u Ru u u Ru u u.
When Mu Qing heard that Ru Si had ended up in a brothel because of Mu Qing's father's illness, he was moved. He couldn't help but glance at Ru Si, but he couldn't take his eyes off her.
Ru Si was born in a brothel, but she didn't have the enchanting aura of a prostitute. Instead, she was like a pure white lotus that grew out of the mud. At this moment, her eyes were full of tears, and her appearance was quite moving. Mu Qing's heart, which was still somewhat hard, softened in an instant.
Mu Qing had always been the stupidest. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't say any comforting words. Mu Qing took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Ru Si.
Seeing the handkerchief in front of her, Ru Si raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. Then she lowered her head and looked up at Mu Qing: "Thank you, Young Master."
Mu Qing lowered his eyes: "You're welcome. You are also a pitiful person."
Yes, because her father was sick, she was sold to this brothel. For a woman to be in a brothel for so many years, was she not a pitiful person?
Hearing Mu Qing say that she was pitiful, Ru Si's action of wiping her tears froze. After a moment, she said with a red face: "Although this servant has been reduced to a brothel, the nanny saw that I was good-looking and found a teacher to teach me the four arts. Although I have been here for five years, but, but I only sell my skills and not my body."
After Ru Si finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Mu Qing with a face full of admiration. She said longingly: "To be honest, this servant has admired Young Master for a long time. Today, I asked Young Master's friend to bring Young Master here just to discuss something with Young Master. If Young Master is willing, this servant will leave this place now and marry Young Master."
Mu Qing never thought that Ru Si would marry him. His face instantly flushed red, and then it faintly darkened.
Mu Qing lowered his fists and clenched his teeth: "A man's ambition is to travel far. I'm afraid this servant will have to disappoint Miss."
Hearing Mu Qing's words, Ru Si's face revealed a trace of astonishment. A trace of suspicion flashed across her eyes, but because Mu Qing's expression was firm, she could only lower her eyes and say: "Young Master, this servant is sincere."
Mu Qing suddenly stood up with both hands on the table. After glancing at Ru Si, he strode away.
Looking at Mu Qing's back as he hurriedly left, Ru Si's face, which was full of resentment a moment ago, instantly turned cold. The corner of her mouth hooked up into a trace of disdain.
Even a noble came to see if she was willing to meet him. He was just a small High Scholar, and he dared to put on airs in front of her. He really didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
However, this was more interesting, wasn't it?
When Mu Qing returned home, Li Cuilian had already prepared a meal and was waiting at home. When she saw Mu Qing return, she served the meal and said: "Qing 'er, this month's money has been used up. Go to your uncle's house tomorrow and borrow some more."
Mu Qing, who was eating, suddenly tightened his grip on his chopsticks. The veins on the back of his hand bulged as he said with an ugly expression: "Didn't I just give it to you? Why is it gone again? "
Li Cuilian saw that Mu Qing did not agree and instead questioned her, and immediately became unhappy. Her face, which was full of wrinkles due to overwork, immediately sank.
Li Cuilian slammed her chopsticks onto the table and shouted, "You've just passed the High Scholar examination, and your clothes and shoes are all new. Furthermore, you still have to entertain your friends. There are so many things you need to spend money on. How can the money you gave me be enough?"
Li Cuilian originally thought that Mu Qing's life would be better after becoming a High Scholar, but who knew that it was not as good as before. When Mu Qing was an Elementary Scholar, he could still go out and set up a stall to earn some money to support the family. But after becoming a High Scholar, he could only stay at home for the sake of his reputation.
She spent more and more money, but earned less and less. Li Cuilian's eyes, which had become much clearer because of Mu Qing's passing of the High Scholar examination, had been tearing up from doing needlework every day. In her heart, she had started to blame Mu Qing.
