He stopped next to her, opened the bedside cabinet, took a blow dryer and handed it to her, "You must be very tired today, dry it and rest, may these fireflies accompany you to have a good dream!"

He lightly covered Menfei and went out, she came back to her senses, only to remember that she was going to return this piece of jade to him, and she had never worn it for three years, and this time she put it on, she met its owner, and saved him that day, and she didn't think about asking for any reward, she just thought that she wouldn't see him again, and she met today, of course, she wanted to return it to him, but it was inconvenient to chase him out, and she just wanted to pay it back next time she met, so she gently lifted the curtain and drilled in, lest the firefly accidentally run out.

Lying on the soft bed, the fireflies flew above her head, like stars in the night sky winking at her mischievously, so lively that it was difficult to sleep. Her mind flew back to the dusty memories of three years ago with the flying fireflies.

In the suite upstairs, Situ Xiao tossed and turned, the moonlight outside the window sprinkled on the treetops, and the rustling wind blew the shadow of the tree, swaying back and forth on the glass window, stirring people's hearts uneasy.

He took out the silk scarf from his pocket, and for three years it had been following him like a shadow, the shadow of the wound tied for him under the red candle, the woman with picturesque eyebrows and snowy skin, always lingering in his mind.

He once thought that he had disturbed her red candle night, and he wanted to return her a real candle in the cave room, but he searched everywhere for many years without success, and he thought about giving up, but there were countless women around him, but no one could replace the shadow under the red candle.

In order to find her, he did not hesitate to leave Shi Zhiwen, who was negotiating, and risked the failure of the negotiation to start a war again.

But when the shadow under the red candle that was deeply imprinted on his heart three years ago stood in front of him, he was afraid! The cowardice he had never had before, in front of a woman.

Her beauty is so tranquil, delicate, pure and elegant, but she is full of charming and intoxicating magic, and like an invisible hand, under such a red candle, gently caressing people's inner desires, making him afraid, afraid that the irrepressible desires in his heart are blasphemous.

His mind drifted back to that encounter three years ago.

Three years ago.

Winter goes to spring, in the city of Yunzhou, the courtyard pavilions, the stream is clear, the covered bridge is meandering, the weeping willows surround the bank, like a chic and handsome strange man, and like a soft and gentle lady.

A clear river is lined with quaint attics.

Here, is the famous "river house" of Yunzhou City.

Jiangnan water town, especially in the Yunzhou area, because of many rivers, so brothels are built near the river, called "river house", because the river is smoky in spring and winter, and there are many kinds of willows, so it is also called fireworks willow lane, and prostitutes are called "river house girls", also known as "fireworks women".

There is an attic that is particularly conspicuous in the spring sun, and the three large gold powder characters of "Cuiyue Pavilion" shine a dazzling golden light in the sun.

"Cuiyue Pavilion" --- the famous building of Suzhou "River House", which is gorgeously furnished, and the adult "River House Girl" each has a room, calling slaves and maids in and out, and making generous moves, and some even spend money like dirt.

Today's Cuiyue Pavilion, the front of the door is full of lights, early in the morning, downstairs hired a group of musicians to blow and blow, the turtle slave girl is all dressed in new clothes, the courtyard feasts guests, a scene of joy and joy, it is lively.

It's just that there are dozens of soldiers with guns standing at the door, which makes the excitement a little murderous.

In the "Cuiyue Pavilion", the "Pleasant Pavilion" is a red candle shining high, and two pillars of benzoin and green smoke curling,

In the room, there are curtains, dressing mirrors, silver calligraphy and painting lamps, circular lark platforms, painted porcelain stilt plates, colorful jade and jade paintings, a double-paved exquisite Arhat couch, a jade and silver cigarette holder, a set of exquisite tea sets, a pair of Go, a few books, a piano, and a red light shadow.

A young woman sat in front of the dressing mirror, and a woman with bright eyes and bright teeth and a pink face immediately appeared in the mirror, a ruby cinnabar mole between the eyebrows was gorgeous and dazzling, and the finishing touch was like a beautiful embryo like a fairy descending to earth, but she frowned tightly at this time.

Ten days ago, when she came back from the Overseer's Mansion, the old bustard Jue Niang called Ah Zi away.

"Ah Zi, you are also fifteen years old, and you have been out for a few months. Now it's famous, like a red sun. However, a woman's youth is limited.

"Ah Zi, my mother wants to hold a bidding meeting for you. Aunt Sun Niang reminded Ah Zi that Aunt Sun Niang was also a river house girl, but because of old age and decrepitness, she didn't find a place to go, so she had to stay to take care of the popular river house girl. Like Ah Zi, a girl who is as delicate as a clear water out of a hibiscus, who can sing and dance, play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is proficient in everything, the old bustard will not let her casually dedicate herself to ordinary prostitutes.

You have to make a lot of "flower heads" for customers.

When the girl was still Qing, the guests often had to set up wine in her room or hall on weekdays, make a big fuss, and give a number of gold, silver and jewelry to the "Qing Pavilion".

After a long time, the old man who wants to comb the girl gathers at the place designated by the bustard to bid, and whoever bids the highest price will obtain the right to "comb" the clearer, and the feast will be held on time.

The more noble the guests of the "comb", the higher the price, and the more noble the girl's status in the attic in the future.

Therefore, a girl like "Combing" needs a lot of twists and turns, and she has to pay a considerable price, and she can only be discouraged if she is not a wealthy family.

Those who comb the innocent people are mostly celebrities and wealthy people and red prostitutes in brothels.

Another one is that they are unlucky in the shopping mall business, thinking that if they go to the prostitution door to open a bud, once they hit the red, they will be able to go to bad luck and turn red luck, and the business can turn defeat into victory, and it will be smooth sailing.

As a result, despite the huge cost of combing through the brothels, the supply of brothels is still in short supply.

A girl like Ah Zi is a stunner that the merry old men of the wealthy families compete to be the first to snatch

"Mom, can you be a little later?" asked Ah Ziyu.

"Ah Zi, it's only because your mother treats you as her own daughter that she will be very attentive, otherwise, she would have found someone to send you away. Now that you're older, you have to do this!You should know the rules of the Emerald Moon Pavilion. ”

The old bustard's words were decisive and majestic, with a hint of murderous aura, which reminded Ah Zi of last winter.

It was cold and windy outside that day, and the old bustard's room was even more cold and murderous.

Five teenage girls stood in the middle of the room with their hands bowed and their heads bowed.

A gorgeously dressed woman with heavy makeup on her face was full of anger, and next to her stood a big man with a meaty face, who was none other than the old bustard Jue Niang and the turtle slave Mingzi.

"Who is it? stand up for yourself!"

Jue Niang's shrill and stern voice was very harsh, and several girls couldn't help but shiver, and their heads lowered.

Alan lowered his head, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and his hanging hands trembled, and Ah Zi, who was standing next to her, secretly reached over and gently shook her shaking hand.
