The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 105 The purple-clothed person is a woman? ! Negotiations at the brothel!
"Sister, will it be okay for us to run out like this?"

"I'm a little scared..."

"What if my mother finds out..."

On the crowded street, a young boy followed timidly behind a girl, looking a little timid.

"Are you scared? If you are, go home! I shouldn't have brought you out here!"

Xu Miaoyun fiddled with her newly bought hairpin and hummed softly,
"There aren't many lively days like this in a year. It would be a shame if you don't come out and enjoy the view."

"It's said in the book that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles! The scene I saw with my own eyes is very different from what is described in the book!"

"Look at this scene, can you imagine it with your head?"

After being scolded by his sister, Xu Huizu rubbed his face hard, clenched his teeth, and looked like he had given up.

"You don't look like Dad at all."

Xu Miaoyun curled her lips and said,
"If he had a temper like my father, he would have gone crazy a long time ago! How come a coward appeared in our family of military commanders?"

"If you're like this, how are you going to inherit your father's skills and go to war on horseback?"

Hearing this, Xu Huizu felt insulted and immediately became dissatisfied.

"I...I'm just more steady, not a coward!"

He yelled,

"I will never bring shame to our Xu family!"

When Xu Miaoyun heard this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She stopped paying attention to him and turned to look at the old woman beside her.

"Old lady, how much is this amulet?"

There are all kinds of small stalls on both sides of the street, selling everything from fruits and snacks to cloth and accessories.

"Haha, little girl, amulets can't be bought and sold. You have to ask for them."

The old woman sat on a small stool and said with a smile,

"These amulets were all burned in the City God Temple and have been looked at by the City God. Wearing them will protect you from illness and disaster for the whole year."

"Little girl, do you want to buy some? I have all kinds of Chinese zodiac animals here."

Xu Huizu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"This old lady has a lot of tricks. You can't just buy from her. You have to invite her."

He looked at Xu Miaoyun and saw that she had already started to choose carefully. He couldn't help but wonder,
"Sister, do you still believe this?"

"Hasn't our family never worshipped gods or Buddhas?"

Xu Miaoyun still ignored him and selected a few according to their zodiac signs, holding them in her hands and saying:

"Old lady, how much do these cost?"

When the old woman saw that she had picked five or six, she immediately smiled and said:

"One, two, three... six in total, nine coins each. Young lady, since you look kind, I'll give you fifty coins!"

"After wearing it, don't let it get wet or dirty. It will always protect you..."

Xu Miaoyun took out a hundred coins from her purse, counted out fifty copper coins and handed them to the old woman, then threw one of them to Xu Huizu.

"Here, it's for you."

she said,

"Wear it carefully and be sincere."

Xu Huizu took the amulet, fiddled with it for a while, and then smiled.

"Although I don't really believe in these things, this is the first time my sister has bought something for me. I believe it must have magical powers!"

He happily collected the amulet and asked,
"But sister, why did you buy so much?"

Looking at the pile in Xu Miaoyun's arms, Xu Huizu was a little confused...including his parents, he wouldn't need that much!

"One is for the Queen, and the other is for His Royal Highness the Prince of Wu."

Xu Miaoyun said seriously,

"The Queen has summoned me to the palace many times and has given me so many gifts. I have to show my appreciation, right?"

"And His Royal Highness the King of Wu gave me a painting and taught me the art of mind. I have to give something in return, right?"

"Although this amulet is not a valuable item, it is a token of my appreciation. The Queen and His Royal Highness the King of Wu are not short of gold and silver, and they may even like these things more..."

Especially the red orange.

She was sure that Zhu Ju would like such items!

"Oh my, you even brought a gift for His Royal Highness the King of Wu. Sister, I think you are probably interested in him!"

Xu Huizu screamed,
"These past few days, I've been talking about either the King of Wu or Xinxue. My ears are almost callused by the topic. I've never seen you..."

"Ouch!"

The next second, he couldn't scream anymore because his ears had been lifted up by Xu Miaoyun!
"You have calluses, right? Let me see how thick they are!"

Xu Miaoyun raised her eyebrows and said,

"I think you've watched too much Romance of the West Chamber. Is it necessarily interesting for a man and a woman to give each other gifts?"

"Do you understand etiquette?"

Xu Huizu's vital points were held, and he cried for mercy, but Xu Miaoyun did not intend to let him go easily this time. She held him by the ear and walked forward, attracting the attention of passers-by.

"Sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

“Ouch, that hurts!”

Xu Huizu was almost in tears before Xu Miaoyun let go.

"Let's see if you dare to plot against me again in the future!"

Xu Miaoyun put her hands on her hips and said,

"It's not all about love between men and women, there is friendship too!"

"Your Highness the King of Wu and I are just pure friends! Do you understand now?"

Xu Huizu was dispirited at the moment. He rubbed his ears and dared not say anything more.

"I understand, I understand..."

"Hmph... I want to see... if it's really pure..."

He muttered something, lowering his voice so low that his sister couldn't hear.

"Speaking of which, His Royal Highness the King of Wu is also visiting the temple fair today."

Xu Miaoyun looked around and said with a smile,
"Maybe, we can meet by chance."

"Let's go, keep moving forward..."

The brother and sister followed the crowd and moved slowly. Xu Miaoyun was brave and careful after all. She dared to take her brother out for a stroll without any security, without any worry of encountering bad people.

Perhaps, beneath her quiet appearance, she is the one who truly inherited Xu Da's character.

call--

A gust of fragrant wind blew out, causing both of them to frown.

"What's that smell? It's so awful!"

Xu Huizu covered his mouth and nose and looked forward.

In the attic in front, I saw several women twisting their bodies hard and pulling their handkerchiefs to attract customers.

Just as he was about to take a closer look, his eyes were covered by his hands.

"Don't look at it, it's dirty."

Xu Miaoyun frowned and whispered,

"The imperial court really shouldn't allow brothels to exist. These women... really make people feel uncomfortable just looking at them."

"Hui Zu, remember, you can do anything else from now on, except two things: one is gambling, and the other is visiting prostitutes."

"If you dare to do these two things, I will treat you as my younger brother!"

Xu Huizu looked at the woman in the attic through his fingers with wide eyes.

"Did Dad do these two things?"

Xu Miaoyun: "..."

"I think we should stop here today. It would be bad if our mother found out."

"walk home."

She grabbed Xu Huizu's collar expressionlessly and walked back.

"Eh, eh..."

Xu Huizu was obviously still reluctant to leave. He kept looking back at the brightly lit brothel and suddenly asked,

"Sister, will His Royal Highness the King of Wu go there to play?"

Xu Miaoyun: “?!”

"impossible!"

She said firmly,
"You think they are just like you, with a head full of crap!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Wu is a genius, how could he be interested in these vulgar things? Besides, the Queen would not allow it."

"Go back! If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyes out!"

As she said that, she was about to poke Xu Huizu with her finger, and Xu Huizu was so scared that he quickly covered his eyes.

"Woooo..."

"Sister, you are not quiet at all. You are just pretending in front of outsiders..."

“Wow… Let’s go to the front and take a look. We finally got out here…”

……

"Ah!"

In the brothel box, Zhu Ju sneezed hard and couldn't help but said,
"Damn, who's talking about me behind my back?"

At this moment, a servant came in carrying tea.

"Sir, do you have a girl you like?"

He said with a bright smile,
"If you like her, just let me know and I'll go get her to accompany you."

In front of Zhu Ju, there was a booklet, similar to a roster.

Some good-looking women will appear in this booklet, which contains a small portrait and some simple information.

It's like the queen flipping the cards.

"You go out first, I'm waiting for someone."

Zhu Ju waved his hand.

However, the boy refused to leave and continued smiling:
"Sir, what's the point of you just drinking tea here?"

"Why don't you find something fun first, and then light it for your friend when he comes? It's the same thing!" "If you're not familiar with it, I have some recommendations..."

Zhu Ju looked a little displeased when he saw that he refused to leave and wanted to solicit business.

I guess this shop has a KPI, you can't just drink tea, how much money can you make from drinking tea? If you drink wine, you will spend a lot of money.

"I'm not interested in those rouge and powder."

Zhu Ju placed two golden beans on the table and raised his head and said,

"If you want to call, just call your courtesan. I have no shortage of money, but the question is, can you hire one?"

When the servant saw the glittering golden beans, his eyes suddenly lit up.

But when he heard the word "Oiran", he smiled bitterly again.

"So you are here for Miss Yanran as well. I understand."

The servant said,
"Compared to Miss Yanran, other women are indeed not worthy of your attention, but you also know that it is not easy to see her."

"Mr. Li next door is powerful and influential. I don't know how much money he has spent on Miss Yanran. Today, she just agreed to come out and sing a song. She hasn't said that she will definitely marry Mr. Li. She said she still wants to study."

"You, this time you are also benefiting from Master Li's help. If you can improve your knowledge later, maybe you can have sex with her. Otherwise... it will be difficult."

Zhu Ju nodded slightly.

This courtesan has quite a lot of tricks.

However, this can also be considered a way to raise one's own value. Aren't all men like this? The more they can't get something, the more they want it, even if it costs a lot of money!
But if you really get it one day, you might get tired of it in a few days.

Therefore, as a prostitute, you have to learn to be reserved.

"Okay, I'm pretty knowledgeable, maybe I can win Miss Yanran's favor?"

Zhu Ju grinned, threw out a silver bean from his arms, and waved his hand,

"Go ahead and get some good wine and food. Don't bother me unless necessary."

The servant was quick to take the silver beans. He immediately smiled and nodded repeatedly, then left with many thanks.

Zhu Ju couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

As expected, in such a den of gilded wealth, one cannot stay away from spending money.

There will always be people hanging around you, trying to get money from you, but this silver bean will probably keep them quiet for a while.

He was about to drink tea when he caught a glimpse of a figure walking into the box.

"Is this fucking over? I just gave you..."

Zhu Ju was completely upset and was about to scold him, but when he looked up, he was stunned.

He saw a woman in purple holding a sword in her hand, looking at him with a bad expression.

"Hey, you are..."

Zhu Ju's heart moved, and he was about to speak, but the next second he heard a muffled sound.

boom!
The purple-clothed woman threw the sword on the table and said angrily:

"Why did you choose to meet in such a disgusting place?"

"What's your intention!"

A murderous aura permeated the box.

However, Zhu Ju has always been soft-hearted and would not tolerate tough treatment. If you have a good attitude, everyone will be able to negotiate things out.

But if you come up to him with an aggressive attitude, he won't tolerate it!

"What's your intention? I like it, so what?"

Zhu Ju sneered,
"Who knew it would be a girl! I thought you were all men!"

Don’t all grown men like this?

Zhu Ju originally wanted to show his hospitality, but he never expected that the Purple Clothes Organization would actually send a young girl.

Who would have thought of this?

"you!"

The purple-clothed woman glared and said angrily,

"I didn't expect you to be such a ruffian. I guess there's no need for us to talk!"

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

As soon as she left, Zhu Ju suddenly became anxious - his master said that the purple-clothed people organization was very mysterious and he could make a lot of money from them!
I finally managed to get out here, I can’t let it go to waste like this!
However, although he was anxious in his heart, he did not show any flaws on the surface.

The game has already begun as soon as the other party enters the door.

The one who came was a little girl whose emotions showed on her face, which made things easier for him.

"Haha, if you go back like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain, right?"

Zhu Ju said with a smile,
"Besides, it must have taken you a lot of effort to find my box, right?"

"If you leave now, the madams won't let you go. Who would go into a brothel without leaving money? You think this is just shopping."

Hearing this, the woman in purple stopped and her face became gloomy.

She felt uncomfortable when she thought of those disgusting old women just now. At this moment, asking her to break out again would be no less difficult than passing through five gates and killing six generals.

Zhu Ju knew that the other party had been persuaded, so he turned around and said:
"Please sit down. I'm not here to have fun. I just came in to take a look out of curiosity."

"After seeing it, I have to say, I am very disappointed."

"So, let's drink tea today. Come, come, sit down."

After some invitation, the woman in purple turned around and walked over to sit down facing Zhu Ju.

Then, he remained expressionless and silent.

"Oh, don't be like this!"

Zhu Ju poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile,

"It's all a misunderstanding. We may have to keep dealing with each other in the future."

"Come, have a cup of tea. My name is Zhu Ju. What's your name? Let's introduce ourselves so we can get to know each other better!"

After saying this, he couldn't help but touch his nose.

This conversation...why does it feel like a blind date?
"…Take off your mask first."

The purple-clothed woman was silent for a moment, then said coldly,

"I don't want to deal with rats who don't dare to show their true colors."

Zhu Ju curled his lips.

What's wrong with this bitch? She's so rude!

Wait!

Wait for the right opportunity and see how I’ll deal with you!
With a rustling sound, Zhu Ju took off the mask on his face.

When this was taken, the woman in purple was stunned.

"Why, didn't you expect that I'm a beautiful boy?"

Zhu Ju was not embarrassed at all, but said shamelessly,

"Is he so handsome that he has charmed you?"

Hearing this, the woman in purple couldn't help but sneer.

"It turns out to be a little brat."

She was obviously more relaxed.
"Are your parents so confident that they would let you escape alone?"

"And you came to such a filthy place?"

Zhu Ju shrugged.

"Of course not. In fact, all the people in this brothel are my agents and spies."

He spread his hands and said,

"We want to catch you, the big fish. As soon as I give the order, someone will rush in and tie you up!"

Swish!
The woman in purple suddenly stood up, rushed to the window, and looked around vigilantly.

"You lied to me!"

She frowned and said,

"No one is monitoring this place at all. If there was, I would have sensed it long ago!"

Zhu Ju raised his eyebrows.

This woman really has some abilities. How can she sense all this so keenly?

"Hahaha...Okay, it's just a little joke, don't be nervous."

Zhu Ju didn't intend to really scare her away, so he clapped his hands and laughed,
"Sit, sit."

"Let's get down to business. I don't like beating around the bush."

The purple-clothed woman returned to her seat, her eyes becoming even more hostile.

"I don't want to drag it out with you either."

She held the sword in her hand and said coldly,
"If it weren't for the jade pendant, I wouldn't want to come to this kind of place and communicate with someone like you."

"Take it out!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ju couldn't help but look curious.

"You can take it out, but before that I want to know one thing—"

He stared at the purple-dressed woman and said seriously,

"Why can you track the jade pendant? Did you install a GPS locator on it?"

The purple-clothed woman couldn't help but frown when she heard this.

"What locator? I don't understand what you are talking about."

She said expressionlessly,
"I do have a way to find you, but I won't tell you the method. Just give up on this idea!"

"Stop talking nonsense, take out the jade pendant quickly, I want to see its quality!"

Zhu Ju curled his lips.

"Can't even this little curiosity be satisfied..."

He took off the jade pendant from his waist, placed it on the table, and said openly,

"Look, look, I'm not afraid of you stealing it."

The moment the purple-clothed woman saw the jade pendant, her pupils shrank slightly.

She quickly reached out, took the jade pendant in her hand, and observed it carefully.

"After so many years..."

"Finally, something has changed..."
