Chapter 36: Go to the brothel

The medicine is decocted and the breakfast is ready. Doctor Bai said that this

medicine is more effective when taken before meals. It is enough to eat after

two cups of tea.

Rui'er and Yuyi came to the bedroom with Lin Buxian carrying breakfast and

soup medicine respectively. Yunan was still (sleeping in Shui). Lin Buxian

motioned to the two to put down their things and go out. After they left, Lin

Buxian sat down. By the bed, looking at Yun'an in (sleeping Shui) dream, maybe

it is hard to be ill, Yunan frowned when she was sleeping (sleeping Shui).

Lin Buxian thought for a while and decided to wake Yunan.

Yun An opened his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"

"what?"

"Oh, what time is it, how long have I (sleeping in Shui)?"

"Sishi, you have been (sleeping Shui) for more than an hour."

"I'm better, I'll get up later, don't worry."

"Drink the medicine first, and then eat the meal. If you feel tired, then

(sleep in Shui) for a while. I've been there for my father and mother. We

don't have to go there tonight, and we will eat in the small courtyard. Today

you can do well. Take a break, you don’t need to dress up, and no one will

bother you."

Lin Buxian got up and brought the medicine bowl over, and said, "It's just

right to be cold and hot, do you get up? Do you want me to feed you?"

"No need, I can do it myself."

"Okay." Lin Buxian handed the medicine bowl to Yun'an. The latter tested the

temperature with his lips while holding the bowl, and drank it all.

Although there was a hint of sweetness in the bitterness, it was still very

bitter. Yunan's facial features were tangled in one place, and he shrank his

shoulders and shivered: "So bitter!"

"Good medicine is bitter."

There is a smell of coptis in this medicine. Although Lin Buxian asked Doctor

Bai to add more rock sugar to it, it still could not cover the taste of

coptis. Although Lin Buxian said "good medicine is bitter", Lin Buxian came to

the table and said On the tray where the food was placed, there was a small

and exquisite plate with three or two crystal candy in it.

Lin Buxian picked up the plate and returned to Yun'an: "With a piece, it won't

be bitter for a while."

"Thank you."

Lin Buxian is gentle, even if they are just a couple of names, Lin Buxian's

words and demeanor all show the demeanor of everyone, and he treats Yunan very

well.

Yun'an smacked the rock candy in his mouth, feeling very unhappy in his heart.

What should I do? After thinking about it all night, I didn't get a firm

answer.

...

After a while, Lin Buxian had breakfast with Yun'an again, and told Yun'an to

pay more attention, and he went to the study.

After entering the study and sitting at the bookcase, Lin Buxian turned his

head and saw the two books yesterday.

She moved her heart and opened the account book. On the last page, she saw

three figures calculated by Yun'an yesterday. Among them, the gross profit was

given by the accountant of Qibao Building, which was only inferior to the

result obtained by Yun'an. Ten taels of silver.

In fact, some errors in such a complicated account are unavoidable. For this

account, ten taels of silver are directly negligible.

Without knowing what was at stake, Lin Buxian actually took out the

calculation chips and turned the account book to the first page, starting with

the first account.

Miss Lin Si is very busy. For the sake of a mere ten taels of silver, she

doesn’t have to work again. But this time, Lin Buxian’s expression is

extremely serious. Every time she counts a few strokes, she stops and writes

it down on the paper. It seems that I am afraid I will make a mistake.

After more than an hour passed, the two thick account books finally turned to

the last page, the crisp sound of abacus beating stopped, Lin Buxian let out a

light breath, looked at the results on the abacus, and then looked at Mr.

Accountant. The results obtained by Yunan and Yunan.

Mr. Accountant in Qibao Building is the most famous in Los Angeles, an old man

with decades of experience. Unexpectedly, he would lose to Yunan, who closed

his eyes and mental arithmetic.

The slender finger strokes the fortune-teller, and the fortune-telling bead

returns to its place, as if nothing has been born.

The next day, when Miss Lin Si was visiting the shop again, Lin Buxian

originally planned to take Yun'an with him. First, let all the people in the

shop see the master’s husband, and let Yun'an recognize the door, saving no

time. The last time I smashed my store, and secondly, it was Yun An’s business

talent that shocked Lin Buxian. She wanted to let Yun An know more about it,

and she might use it later.

However, Lin Buxian saw Yun'an's mental sorrow, thinking that she was still

ill, so he dispelled the idea, told Yun'an to take a good rest, explained his

whereabouts, and took Yuyi and Jiading out of the house. .

Yun An was lazy on (bed chuang) for half a morning, got up to wash, and

planned to go out after lunch.

Rui Er met and asked, "Auntie, are you going out?"

"Well, I want to take a walk on the street."

"Uncle's (body shen) body is getting better?"

"Much better, thank Sister Ruier for your concern."

Rui'er covered her lips and smiled. Compared with Yuyi's rejection and wait

and see, Rui'er's impression of Yunan is much better. She replied: "Auntie

doesn't need to be like this. Waiting for the lady and the uncle is a slave's

part. Wait, the slave and maid will call a few powerful families to go out

with you."

Yun An waved his hand: "No need to trouble, I am going to go out to find a

friend, I am afraid it is inconvenient to bring them." As soon as the voice

fell, Yun An's heart beat.

Looking for friends? Apart from the Lin family, I seem to only know Li Yuan...

When I answered just now, I didn't think about it at all, and just said it

casually. I have been entangled with the question for nearly two days. Does it

have an answer?

Rui Er said "yes" and asked: "Are you going back to the house for dinner

tonight? Do you need to let the kitchen warm your dinner?"

Yunan thought for a while and replied, "No, I might have to eat out with

friends and talk about things."

"Yes, go slowly, uncle."

After leaving the Lin Mansion, Yun'an's mood gradually became clear. Although

he has not made up his mind to help Lin Mansion change the ending, some things

still need to be prepared in advance. At the last minute, there is still

another chance to choose. If you don't do anything, , When it came that day,

it was too late for me to regret it.

Yunan inquired all the way and came to Li Mansion. He recalled what Li Yuan

said and went around the back door of Li Mansion. The jade pendant that Li

Yuan gave to her was handed to the guardian at the door, and said: "In Xia

Yunan, I'm here to visit Li Yuan Li Gongzi. "

Jia Ding looked at Yun'an and then at Yupei, and replied, "There is no such

person in our house."

"Why? I met him a few days ago. He is the third son of the house."

Jia Ding glanced back and cast a look at Yun'an. Yun'an understood, he left,

and walked to the corner to wait. Sure enough, Jia Ding secretly chased him

and said to Yun'an, "Master, you are The son-in-law of Lin Mansion?"

"it's me."

"The young man does not know that the third young master has been expelled

from the mansion by the master. He is now living in a small courtyard in Maoer

Hutong in the west of the city. The young one used to be a servant next to the

third young master, because this matter was degraded. Door. The first three

young masters told me that if you come to find him, you must be a good

hospitality. You might as well go where to find the third young master."

"Expelled from the mansion? What happened?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Jia Ding's face, and he replied, "If

you don't dare to say anything about the master's family, you should ask the

third master directly."

"OK, thank you."

"Master!" Jiading stopped Yun'an, walked to Yun'an quickly, and whispered, "If

the third master is not in the yard of Maoer Hutong, the master can go to the

Misty Building in the west of the city to find it, third master Eighty percent

are there."

"Miaomiaolou? Where is that again?"

"The son-in-law will know when he goes."

"Ok."

As soon as Yunan inquired about Mao'er Hutong, it was actually half an hour's

walk from here, and it was a bit big. After weighing it up, I went to the

nearby mule and horse market and spent thirty-two silver dollars to buy a

horse.

I learned horseback riding and archery when I was in Time Island, and it's

much easier to act with a horse.

Sure enough, Li Yuan was not there, and Yunan went to the east of the city

again. After tossing such a big circle, Yunan felt a bit resentful in her

heart. She hated Li Yuan, but when she thought that she had something to ask

for help, she had no choice but to bear it.

Finally found Miomi Building, the sky was getting dark, and there were a row

of red lanterns hanging outside Miomi Building. There were not many people at

the door, but the sound of silk and bamboo and laughter came from the

building.

Looking at this posture and the festive decoration, Yunan probably understands

what Misty Building is. No wonder passers-by looked at him with strange eyes

when he asked for directions just now...

Co-authored myself as a beast in a cloak, right?

Yunan smiled and stepped off his horse. There were already tortoise slaves

rushing in front of Yunan like an arrow. He took the reins and said with a

smile: "Master, you haven't been here for a long time. The girls in the

building miss you. It’s hard to think about it. Today is the day when the

slender girl chooses the guests for the curtain. You are a coincidence."

When Yun An heard the words of the turtle slave, he secretly smiled and asked,

"I'll ask you something."

"Master, please speak."

"Is there a Li Yuan, Li Gongzi here?"

"Oh! You mean, Li Konggu Li Gongzi, that's... that one?"

"Correct."

"He's here! It's been several days in a row, is Lord Li's friend?"

"Correct."

"You follow me. The little one will lead you."

The turtle slave tied the horse to Yun'an and respectfully invited Yun'an in.

Yun'an turned on the camera, inevitably feeling a little excited. I don't know

how many years the brothel has been banned. I have only seen it in Blue Star's

film and television works or novels, and there is no historical material

specifically recording this. Today, I have to open my eyes.

Lifting the pink (color) gauze, Yun'an's eyes light up, and the Misty Building

adopts a central well-style, back-shaped architectural structure.

The lobby on the first floor is the middle well. The private rooms on the

first floor are in the shape of "return", and the layers are high, so you can

clearly see the graceful dance of the dancers on the center stage.

The price of private rooms also increases with the floor. Most people sitting

on the first floor are spectators with little money in their pockets, and they

are also very noisy.

The dancers on the stage are slender and wear the same style of light gauze

long skirts. They are semi-transparent and shadowy. The occasional (chunchun)

light (thorn ci) arouses the nerves of the spectators, Yunan But after a

glance at the dancers, she withdrew her gaze. She is from modern times, and

this attire is nothing to Yun An.

On the contrary, it was the ugly attitude of those men glowing, which made Yun

An couldn't help frowning.
