Chapter 707: Hometown People
The two people who caught Zhou Liuer's attention were both women.
One is a young lady who is about the same age as her, although she is called "Miss", but Zhou Liuer feels that the girl does not have the appearance of a young lady at all, that bearing, conversation and even herself is not as good as herself, if she is a dusty woman, I am afraid that some people believe it, if you say that she is not a young lady, the girl's food and clothing are no worse than that of the young lady. She also inquired about the young lady around the corner, but the people in the house were silent, which made Zhou Liuer even more curious, such a poor person can also enjoy the treatment of Miss Boudoir, there must be a very special reason for this, the things in the mansion are really complicated and strange.
Sometimes the more you don't want someone to know, the more anxious and eager she becomes.
Another person who caught Zhou Liuer's attention was an aunt, Aunt Fang, this aunt was gentle, soft, and nothing out of the ordinary, but Zhou Liuer always had a strange feeling about her, a feeling of closeness and attachment that made her involuntarily think of her mother.
Thinking of her mother, Zhou Liuer felt resentment and longing in her heart, the reason why she had to stay in the capital and didn't want to go back was that she didn't want to be pointed at anymore, because her mother was a secret prostitute.
She sold herself to Shuiyunjian not so much because her family was in a bad situation to find a way out, in fact, everything was her mother's intention, and it was also to let her out of that environment, after all, it was really embarrassing to do that kind of thing if there was a little girl in the family.
Zhou Liuer really doesn't understand her mother, she has not lacked food and clothing since she was a child, and then she grew up, she understood that maybe those men were the source of her mother's silver, but when she grew up, she didn't understand, her mother actually has silver, even if there are no men, they will live well, and women have to stop this business when they reach a certain age, but why is she so old, and her mother still has to do those unsightly things!
But if you want to say something unseemly, her mother does it very calmly, and the guests are all regular customers, even if there are occasional new faces, they will slowly become mature customers, except for these regular customers, the mother will not accept other guests, and there are also some lustful or drunk people who heard others talk about the special people who came to the door here, and they were all gently but firmly rejected by her mother.
Those regular customers are polite every time they come, and occasionally they will give her some gadgets, which makes Zhou Liuer embarrassed and uncomfortable, until once she threw the pearl hairpin given to her by a guest to the ground and ran away, and her mother persuaded her to sell herself to the "water and clouds", and her mother said that it was for her good, and she didn't want to see those men again, so she agreed.
Although she resents her mother, she still loves her in her heart, and her mother is actually very good to her in addition to making her ashamed of this life. And this Aunt Fang's gentle but very tough temperament is very similar to her mother, and even some unconscious movements and manners are a little similar, and once she heard Aunt Fang say something to herself, this kind of mother also said, her mother said that it was her hometown dialect, but her mother did not teach her, because her mother said that she would not use it in the future, and others could not understand it, so it was better not to bother. But she often hears her mother talk about this kind of thing with those regular customers, and it turns out that those regular customers are all from her mother's hometown!
So when Aunt Fang whispered that sentence, although Zhou Liuer didn't understand, but her heart moved, it turned out that Aunt Fang is also her mother's hometown! This made Zhou Liuer's closeness a little more, although with her current identity, she naturally can't have any friendship with Aunt Fang, but it is no problem to say a few words with the help of embroidery.
