Qi Xiaofei stayed to decoct the medicine, Xiao Yan was responsible for taking care of Ding Feiyan, and Chi Qiu led Zhou Rong and Yan Su'er straight to the dew Zhangtai.

For the first time, Chi Qiu also came to the flower street of Yanhu Lake, which was full of low walls and fences and colorful fire trees, bringing a touch of noise to the silent rainy night. It used to be a place where sailors and brokers lingered, and the grade level was not high, and with the development of Yanhu Lake, there were also several gold caves.

For a few drunks, I walked to an elegant courtyard, and there was a black plaque hanging on the small door: "Dew Zhangtai". A maid had already greeted her in front: "A few guest officers, please." ”

The sharp mouth didn't know where it came from, and whispered to the maidservant, "Mi Li, it should be the little county lord." ”

Chi Qiu heard it clearly, it turned out that this sharp mouth had been hiding near Jin Xiangyuan, obviously this was arranged by Chen Hai, so as not to be bluffed by the people's words.

The sharp mouth eyes were quite dissatisfied, and when he saw the maid receiving Chi Qiu, he snorted and disappeared into the night.

Chi Qiu took the lead, the first time to see the flower building between the rivers, it can be said that he was full of interest, plus he pretended to be a businessman, borrowed some silver taels from the small county lord, a little confident, strode meteor to follow, as soon as he entered the door is a large patio, the pillars under the corridor are small square tables, there are a few pilgrims sitting here to drink some tea, choose the next girl, today's autumn rain, there is no waiting in the corridor.

It is different from the brilliant lights and crowds that Chi Qiu imagined, I don't know if the business is bad or the market here is like this. Chi Qiu guessed that it should be a general business, because there were many girls standing on the second floor, holding fans and pointing in twos and threes.

The second floor above the patio is a circle of small houses, each household is not big, there is a sign hanging at the door, this is the most ordinary prostitution, and then the second courtyard is the Accord of the popular girls, which is scattered, each has its own thatched cottage in front of the door, quite a bit of Jiangnan elegance.

The maid did not stop, but led them into the big house of the third courtyard, the room was warm, compared with the cold rain outside the house, the temperature difference was like winter and summer, the difference between one mile and one outside was very large, the surrounding windows had been tightly sealed, only a small breathable window in the high place was still open.

After entering the room, the maid went to Dong Eniang's ear to report a few words, and closed the door.

Seeing that Miss Yanjia arrived, they got up one after another, led by a mature woman in her thirties, with a natural and good appearance, she was Dong Eniang, the old bustard of Dew Zhangtai.

A man sitting on a pear blossom wood chair on the left side next to him, with a tall nose bridge and deep eyes, was very good-looking, but when he turned around, the left side of his face was indeed a mess, covered with scars, and the scars extended to his neck. It made people shudder, Zhou Rong had never seen this person, and he didn't feel a little scared, pulling the corner of Chi Qiuyi's clothes, and there was a feeling of hiding in it.

At this time, it was Chen Shan, the owner of the Dew Zhangtai, the fierce light contained in his eyes was enough to make people feel cold, Chen Hai stood behind him, half a head tall, in contrast, if Chen Shan and Chen Hai were two brothers, Chi Qiu would not believe it, but their names ......

Chi Qiu was still pondering, so Dong Eniang stepped forward and introduced everyone one by one.

Yan Su'er covered her head with a hat, and walked outside thinking it was to shelter from the wind and rain, but she didn't mean to take it off, Dong Eniang naturally wouldn't be abrupt, after saluting, she came to Chi Qiu, with a hint of sadness on her face, even if Chi Qiu saw it, she couldn't help but wave, and secretly sighed that although this young woman is not talented, she does belong to the feeling of fox, probably what ordinary people say, the master who was born to eat this mouthful.

Chen Hai stood behind him, this should be the Chen stall master.

It was naturally Dong Eniang who stepped forward to speak, looked at Yan Su'er, and said, "The little county lord is here to dew, it is really full of splendor......

"There's no need to be polite, today's matter, the county lord does not distinguish between black and white, does not judge right and wrong, you discuss." After speaking, he sat down on the main seat like a cross-horse knife, that posture, in Chi Qiu's opinion, was a bit too much, it was really a first-class identity, second-rate dress, and third-rate acting skills, even through Mi Li, he still felt a strong embarrassment.

Yan Su'er was under the power hat, her heart was pounding, these words were taught to her by Chi Qiu on the road, and she didn't know how to turn around, and she came up and said her own lines with her head and face, and hid aside. Fortunately, she is a cold "zombie face", and she can still reveal a chill through the power hat, and when others see it, they only think it is the style of a hairpin girl, but they don't dare to delve into it.

Since the little county lord let go and only did justice, Dong Eniang smiled at Chi Qiu and said, "In that case, you must be the broker of the Zhou family?" Actually invited the small county lord to do the middle way, please forgive the little girl's clumsiness, I don't know which way it is? Chi Qiu is dressed like a passerby, according to Chen Hai's description, he is a master of the hazy realm, in Yanhu City, there are only a handful of people who can have such a realm, Dong Eniang circled around Chi Qiu with interest.

Chi Qiu arched his hand and said: "I am just a stranger in Xia, I heard that Yanhu Lake has good mountains, good water and good scenery, so I came here to beg for food." ”

Dong Eniang didn't expect Chi Qiu to say this, and she felt novel for a while.

Chi Qiu looked at Chen Shan's expression, although this person was gloomy, but his expression and actions showed that he had a lot of respect for Yan Su'er, a mercenary group like them, relying on the employment of princes and nobles all year round, may kill people like hemp, but it is definitely not a Jianghu sect that jumped out of the five elements, and maintained a certain awe for the powerful. The mercenary group from Yanhu does not accept the employment of hostile forces in Yanhu.

Chi Qiu said simply: "I don't have any backing behind me, and I don't have any calculations, a few days ago, in the Pufu Hall, I applied for an identity card at the same time as the Zhou family, and I met her, and I couldn't see her fair style, that's it." ”

Chen Shan couldn't help but ponder.

Dong Eniang smiled: "Are you planning to redeem their mother and daughter?" ”

"I can't talk about redemption." On the issue of principle, Chi Qiu does not intend to be sloppy: "According to the law of Yanhu, Zhou is not the wife of Xu Xianggong, and his contract to sell his wife is a real number of crimes, and he cannot be counted, and the purchase and sale of children requires the approval of both parents, since Zhou is not dead, the contract of Zhou's daughter naturally cannot be counted." ”

"Oh, you talk to me about the law? If we talk about the law, we will ...... the dew Zhangtai" Dong Eniang looked at Chi Qiu, obviously remembering the identity of Yan Su'er, and swallowed back deeply when she said it.

Indeed, if it were according to the law, they would not have to open the door to do business, but this is all private, if you say so in front of the small county lord of Yanhu? It's a matter of minutes when the door closes.

Dong Eniang saw that Chi Qiu had grasped his weakness, and understood why he wanted to ask the small county lord to do the middle way, a half-open business like theirs, there are always people behind them, no connections, how to operate, but the connections are used, and they are naturally used on the blade, such a small thing, if you use your connections, in the final analysis, it is not enough to ask people for tea money.

Zhou Rong said nervously: "The money was taken by the brute surnamed Xu, I ...... I don't have any money on me. ”

Chi Qiu grabbed Zhou Rong's arm and said with a smile: "This is natural." Stretched out his hand and motioned to Dong Eniang to say the number.

Dong Eniang looked at Chen Shan, made a slight movement, and gestured in her hand, Chen Shan shook his head.

Dong Eniang changed her gesture, and Chen Shan closed her eyes slightly.

"Okay, little girl, I have paid ten taels of silver, these days I have eaten and drunk here, and it costs a lot, a price, fifty taels."

"Ah, how can there be so many." Zhou Rong listened to this number and suddenly lost his temper.

Yan Su'er also felt that it was a bit excessive, and just as she was about to speak, she heard Chi Qiu say, "Okay." She sighed softly and sat back upright.

Chi Qiu took out the banquet and borrowed his silver, this is all the belongings of the little county lord, and it is only more than thirty taels, and the fragmentary silver tickets, gold coins, and silver coins are simply a complete collection of currencies, Dong Eniang said sourly on the side: "Actually, I really like the little girl, Zhou Zheng doesn't say anything at a young age, that voice is really good, I have not done this business for twenty years, but also fifteen years, I have never seen such a good voice of the little girl, if it is handed over to me for ten years, she will definitely become a popular corner." ”

Zhou Rong looked disgusted, and didn't want to listen to her more, at this time, what Dong Eniang said was in her eyes, she was a demon who knocked out the bones and stripped the marrow.

Seeing that the negotiation had been settled, Chen Shan stood up, arched his hand at the small county lord, and retreated to the back hall with Chen Hai.

There were still more than ten taels left, Dong Eniang waved her hand and said, "Bring the warbler here." ”

"Warbler crying?"

"The stage name I gave her, I liked this little girl at first sight, if you want, you can keep her here to learn music, I can do it without charge."

"Hmph, I'm afraid that this money will only teach more than ten girls." Zhou Rong looked angry: "Don't beat my daughter's idea." ”

Dong Eniang was deflated, but she couldn't see a trace of embarrassment on her face, and she was still smiling.

When Zhou Rong saw his daughter, he rushed up and hugged her in his arms, for fear that she would disappear again, Zhou Rong's daughter Xu Qing'er, Chi Qiu had seen it before, and at that time he only felt that he looked like Zhou Zheng, at this time, he freshened up, and wore a close-fitting maid outfit, snuggled in Zhou Rong's arms, looking shy and happy, Chi Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "I will bring the balance tomorrow." ”

Dong Eniang nodded, but she was unhappy: "Then there is no way, who told some people to have no money and have to rush to the big head." After speaking, he added: "If you really can't turn around in the future, you still send Yingqi to me, I really like it, and I promise to treat her as my own daughter...... Hey......"

Zhou Rong couldn't listen to it anymore, so she hugged her daughter and walked out, in her heart, even if a woman entered the Zhangtai, her whole body was unclean.

Chi Qiu and Yan Su'er also took their leave and chased after them.
