The night was uneventful, and the next morning, Yu Ling's condition was much better, and she got up to prepare breakfast for Ji Ning, as if she wanted to prove that she was the hostess of this small courtyard, and she didn't need one more person to take care of Ji Ning.

But after Ji Ning saw Lin Yi that day, he still proposed to let Lin Yi's sister Lin Juan'er come over, so that Ji Ning would have one more maid by his side to take care of him.

"Two taels of silver a month, six months at a time, after the deadline, if I still want to live in the capital, I will let her come over and continue to work, she can leave at any time, you can sign a contract!" Ji Ning said.

"Master Ji, what are you talking about, if you like it, let this girl serve by your side, don't mention anything that is not good, she can follow Master Ji to have something to eat, that is her creation!" Lin Yi admires Ji Ning very much, and he really wants his sister to be by Ji Ning's side, as if he regards Ji Ning as his brother-in-law.

But Lin Yi also knew that he was not so blessed, because even if Ji Ning was willing to keep Lin Juan'er by his side in the end, he would not let Lin Juan'er become the main room, at most as a side room, but even if he became Ji Ning's concubine, Lin Juan'er's future status would be extraordinary.

"No, just let your sister come over for an hour or two every day, help with the fire and cook, I really can't cope with this errand, maybe it's the result of not adapting to it in the north!" Ji Ning was also a little helpless, because in the northern part of the capital, he himself was not very used to it.

Winter has not yet reached the coldest time, and he himself is already a little unbearable.

Ji Ning also directly discussed with Lin Yi about renting a yard, Ji Ning rented it for half a year at a time, and also paid the silver to Lin Yi, Lin Yi suddenly had a dozen taels of silver on hand, and even he felt like a dream.

"Master Ji, if you have something to say in the future, the villain is not ambiguous before and after the saddle!" Lin Yi was grateful to Dade, and hurriedly went back to inform his sister and asked her sister to come over to help.

After Ji Ning returned to the house, in addition to studying during the day, he also planned to design a stove, so that the room could have a little more temperature during the day, so that his hands and feet would not be cold, and at the same time, he was also going to make a few more down jackets, he would ask Lin Yi to help find some goose feathers to come back, a down jacket was worn on Yu Ling's body, and he himself only wore ordinary clothes in and out, and it was still a little cold.

……

……

In the afternoon, Ji Ning arranged things almost as well, letting Lin Juan'er cook on the fire at home, while he took Yuling to the direction of Tianxiang Building.

That night, there was also the second half of the Tianxianglou Oiran Conference, he had an appointment with Tang Xie and others, and went to Tianxianglou to drink again, this time they were not ready to use Ji Ning's privilege of free eating, drinking and merrymaking, they were ready to take out their own silver, and Ji Ning did not object, because he himself felt that Tianxianglou's hospitality yesterday was a little sluggish, but his friends seemed not very happy.

A few people gathered in the teahouse first, and in the private room, a few people sat down to discuss some things, and what they said was nothing more than the matter of Tianxianglou.

It seems that learning has little to do with them.

“…… I have asked, then Song Qin'er's ransom silver is six hundred taels, everyone...... In the next place, I'm going to redeem the people first, you don't have any opinions, right? Tang Xie smiled and said.

This made Ji Ning and the others a little surprised.

Yesterday, Tang Xie was interested in the second appearance of Song Qin'er, the former singer of the palace, Ji Ning and others saw it in their eyes, and they thought that Tang Xie was just talking casually, but they didn't expect Tang Xie to be serious, and the next day Tang Xie actually went to find someone from Tianxianglou to explain the matter.

Han Yu said: "The price is not high, but Brother Tang, are you sure you like it...... Don't just find out what's wrong after you go back. Usually such a Qing man is supposed to cost thousands of taels of silver to redeem himself. What's more, this Song Qin'er still has a certain appearance, only six hundred taels of silver, is it not appropriate? ”

"No problem, what if you're not a Qingqi? What I like is this woman, it's not what, it's just a feeling, it's rare that Tianxianglou doesn't want to keep such a woman, so I'll redeem her, it's good to be on weekdays, for the time being, take it as a concubine, and then talk about it. Yongning, but you should also work hard, I think Miss Liu and you have always had a lot of fate, if she becomes an Oiran tonight, and finally has to come out to accompany the guests, if not, we will help you make up some more money and redeem her? Tang explained.

Ji Ning smiled and shook his head and refused, not to mention that he would not help Liu Ru is redemption for the time being, even if he had this heart, he would not be able to afford the silver.

Liu Ru is the cash cow of Tianxianglou, with this one woman, Tianxianglou can even make a lot of money, how can such a cash cow Tianxianglou be easily handed over to others?

But Ji Ning just didn't understand why Tianxianglou let Liu Ru participate in this kind of Oiran conference that might lose her body, could it be that in order to open a reward, she had to make her cash cow stink and become an ordinary woman who could do her best? At that time, let Liu Ru come to drive passenger flow?

……

……

It wasn't until sunset and dusk that a few people walked in the direction of Tianxiang Tower, and as soon as they arrived at Tianxiang Tower, Ji Ning noticed that something was not quite right, as if there were a lot of people looking around.

These people have a background at a glance, they all have swords on their bodies, but they are hidden in cloth baggage, or hidden in their waists, these people are very big, and they are guard-level people at a glance, and on the third floor upstairs, there is also an extra seat that has long been guarded, and the main owner has not yet come, but Ji Ning can directly guess that this Oiran Conference is likely to be held for this person.

As for Liu Ru coming out to run for Oiran, and even Oiran will dedicate himself, etc., it is also for the appearance of this big man today.

But who this big man is, Ji Ning still doesn't know.

Tang Xie and the others didn't have such good observation as Ji Ning, they didn't pay much attention to who was downstairs, but according to the situation yesterday, they greeted the people from Tianxianglou first, and a few people went up to the third floor and went to the banquet hall to talk first.

In the banquet room, a few people sat on the chairs, and Tang explained: "There is not a lot of nonsense, let Miss Song Qin'er come out to accompany the wine, as for the other girls, find a few more, they must be cleared, if there is one not, don't think about taking a tael of silver from the hands of this son!" ”

"Hey, who offended our Tang Gongzi?" Ru Niang saw Tang Xie again this time, as if she was seeing her own relatives.

Tang Xie took out six hundred taels at a time, although it was not a lot of money in the drunken Tianxianglou, but Tang Jie's preferences were very unique, and Tianxianglou also had a purpose in running for the Oiran, which was to test whether his girls had a market among ordinary guests. Obviously, because of her background and demon problems, Song Qin'er was not very appreciated by ordinary guests, so Song Qin'er was regarded as a "treatment item" by Tianxianglou.
