Chapter 70: Drinking, Prostitution, and Prostitution

The building of the "Spring Painting Boat" is wide, majestic and magnificent, and the rooms in the ship are all residential structures, carved beams and painted buildings, painted and decorated, gorgeous and bright.

When night falls, the water of the Pearl River seems to be lit up by the red glow.

The two-story embroidered piano pavilion of the spring painting boat, the tassel of the brocade tent, the strange fragrance bursts, the fancy screen of the beauty bath, the bright crystal diorama, and a little elegant in the charm.

Ye Zhao and Guan Wen were drinking and having fun, both of them were dressed as civilians, and they were messing around with Guan Wen, Ye Zhao also stuck his beard, so as not to be recognized, which surprised Guan Wen for a long time.

There is no way, Guangzhou Huahua World, the official document must see it, and it is really not good to say that this guy is really not like it, and he even blatantly mentioned to the general Wang that he wanted to come to the Pearl River to paint a boat, but obviously, he did not treat Ye Zhao as an outsider.

Later generations have described the special relationship between the irons, which is "together through the window, together with the gun, together in prison, together with prostitution".

Although the proverbs of later generations are extremely appropriate in this world, Ye Zhao is not easy to push away the official situation, and this shopping boat together can indeed bring him closer to the relationship between himself and the official culture.

Thinking about Ye Zhao, he couldn't cry or laugh, looking at the people who are now standing on the opposite side of him, Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Shen Baozhen, etc., all of them are famous ministers for a while, but he is in the company of the likes of official literature, but history is so wonderful and unpredictable, and it is a shortcut to want his influence and power to go further in the southeast half of the wall, and to bring the official literature over.

At this time, beside the official text, sit a bewitching woman, slim, red skirt and green jacket, pink melon seed face is still pretty, and the official text is greasy together, from time to time to make people blush and red giggles, this is one of the thirty-two flowers selected by the Cantonese newspaper, called the embroidered qin, the Cantonese newspaper introduced her length called "the seventeenth year, ** in the people, so the wind and dust, nowhere to go" and the literati gave poems, saying that she is "thin waist support is invincible, sentimental and hateful, repentant climbing other people's hands, the east wind is too thin." ”

Ye Zhao and the official text are dressed very plainly, the jade wrench fingers in his hands are gone, wearing an inconspicuous silk robe, it seems that he is a person with Chinese family, this is also the idea of the official text, it is about this mood, but as soon as you sit in this embroidered qin pavilion, the official text wants this and that, what kind of special wine, special wine and fruit, it is more luxurious than that flower wine, and at first glance, it is rich and rich, so that Ye Zhao is helpless, and he thought that he had met an ancient ditch female addict, in the final analysis, it was not to smash people with money, since this is the case, why should he wear such shabby?

And the embroidery qin, which was originally quite cold to the official text, immediately became enthusiastic, but no, don't look at this master's inconspicuous clothes, but this connoisseur knows if there is one as soon as he makes a move, and the painting boat flower wine is a table of four products, or a single order, and the wine and snacks that this master wants are much more expensive than the "one flower wine" of five silver and a table, and the embroidery qin is not painful and loved, and Ye Zhao was immediately left out in the cold.

But the official didn't dare to snub the general Wang, so he called the old bustard and instructed Mr. Wang to choose a Qingqi person to accompany him.

Just when the official text and the embroidery were greasy and crooked, the old bustard led a delicate little girl in, who looked older than Rong'er, thin and small, wearing a tender green skirt, and there seemed to be tears on her face, which was quite painful.

The old bustard asked Ye Zhao with a smile: "Mr. Wang, do you see, are you satisfied?" "If you want to talk about the Qing people, there are a lot of paintings in the spring, but the bustard himself knows in his heart, how many Qing people are there in the so-called Qing people? Let's just say that the few people who came from Suzhou were opened early in the nineteenth morning, and they changed places and became Qing Qi people again.

And the only thing that the bustard is sure of is that the little girl who just came to the painting boat in spring yesterday is called Mingxia, and after a few days of reading, the name is still given by herself, and the bustard is quite nice when she hears this name, and it is called Mingxia with the name of this little girl's flower brand.

The old bustard is well-informed, these two guests, they look inconspicuous, but they are all noble, maybe they have a big background, just say that the few men in green robes in the next room, nineteen are these two followers, just now I heard the girl say, those men are sick, the nerves are abnormal, ordered such expensive wine and food, but they are not allowed to say it out loud, why? The old bustard pondered, probably listening to the movement of this house, afraid that something would happen.

With such two masters, the old bustard didn't dare to fool him, and he brought the most certain Qingqi Mingxia to him.

Ye Zhao didn't come to drink flower wine, so he had no objections, nodded to the old bustard, and said with a smile: "It's good." ”

The old bustard immediately smiled, and the thick fat puff on his fat face fell, which made people feel a chill.

"Quick, accompany Mr. Wang." The old bustard pressed Mingxia next to Ye Zhao, and said to Ye Zhao with a smile: "If Mr. feels smooth, you can stay overnight, and we will talk about the price." ”

Mingxia's delicate little face was pale, and there were tears in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry.

Ye Zhao sighed in his heart when he saw this, knowing that this little girl must be involuntarily.

Although Guangzhou strictly ordered the prostitutes to be prostituted, the current prostitutes do not remember as much as the later generations, and most of the later generations were voluntary, and those who were forced to become prostitutes were illegally imprisoned. But now a woman becomes a prostitute, even if it is not voluntary, it is by no means forced by the Tangzi Ji Academy, but for the sake of livelihood, she has to enter the Tangzi. And most of them will take a sum of money from the hall and sign a death deed, this money is either life-saving money, or for the family.

Now the hall doesn't sign a deed of sale, and signs a ten-year or twenty-year contract with these women, but in fact it is just a disguised deed of sale, and if you want to leave the hall, you have to pay a large ransom.

Ye Zhao knew that it was not possible to eradicate this phenomenon by his own strict order, and you must rule that this kind of contract was illegal, which would only cause the Tangzi Jiyuan to trade with these women in a more concealed form, and in order to get life-saving money, these women would be willing to do anything, and their rights and interests would be even more difficult to protect at that time. If we want to eradicate this phenomenon, only by making the lives of urban and rural people better and better, and when even the countryside solves the problem of food and clothing, this phenomenon of women from good families having to enter the hall will slowly disappear.

Looking at this little girl named Mingxia, I don't know why her family is in a hurry to use the money, and she has to send her daughter like a fire pit.

Ye Zhao felt pity in his heart, picked up a piece of snow-white cake on the table and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Give it!" ”

Mingxia was frightened, and the little sheep shrank back.

Xiuqin Jiao smiled and said: "Silly girl, the big official loves you, hurry up." "Don't look at Xiuqin, I hate the poor and love the rich, but this is the surname that Sister Yao will inevitably develop, but she has a good heart, and she is afraid that Mingxia will offend the two high-rollers and turn around and suffer from the old bustard.

Mingxia was pale and just shook her head.

Ye Zhao smiled: "Forget it." "Put the pastry back.

Xiuqin smiled: "Mr. Wang has a really good temper. ”

Ye Zhao smiled and didn't squeak.

Guan Wen finally let go of the embroidered qin and said, "Play a song to cheer up the master!" The so-called Qiqin embroidery can be extraordinarily different, and it is not as good as Yidu. The embroidered piano girl must be a show of wisdom! ”

Ye Zhao was surprised, didn't want this unlearned Manchuria to recite poetry? But when I think about it, it's all wind and snow, which is called a specialization in the art industry.

The embroidered qin smiled charmingly: "The master can lift the embroidered qin!" He got up lightly, sat down behind the anchovian opposite, and gently adjusted.

Ye Zhao took a sip of tea and said to the official text: "I heard that there are twisted bandits in Hunan, does my brother have a countermeasure?" ”

The official was stunned, and said in his heart when did Hunan become a bandit? But his mind was sharp, and his eyes lit up immediately, but he hesitated and did not speak.

Ye Zhao smiled slightly: "Let's talk about it when it gets fierce." Guan Wen immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I will ask the prince for guidance then." ”

There was the little girl sitting behind the prince, looking stupid and dumb, and then this prince, even if she heard it, she was afraid that she would think it was the prince, and she didn't care about her with official documents.

Ye Zhao glanced back at her and said, "Eat whatever you want." Hungry or not? ”

Mingxia actually had a little gurgling belly, but although she saw that Master Wang was kind, she didn't dare to speak after all.

Ye Zhao said: "Don't be afraid, you are so young, how did you enter the hall?" Can someone force you? ”

Mingxia's eyes turned red at once, and she slowly lowered her head, although she was young, she also knew the cruel fate she would face in the future.

Ye Zhao sighed softly and rubbed her little head.

Mingxia's body stiffened, and then she felt that this big hand was warm, full of love, and her heart was suddenly sad, and tears flowed out, she stretched out her little hand to wipe her tears, and on the other side, the beautiful sound of the piano gradually rose. The embroidery is a good craft.

Ye Zhao gently handed Mingxia a handkerchief and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." ”

Mingxia wiped her tears and nodded vigorously.

Ye Zhao handed over the snack, Mingxia hesitated, took it, and ate it in small bites, but first, she was still a little afraid, and secondly, she was hungry and a little anxious, and after eating a few bites, she was choked and coughed.

Ye Zhao smiled, gently patted her skinny little spine, and said, "Eat slowly, and no one will rob you." ”

Mingxia could feel Ye Zhao's kindness, and finally smiled at Ye Zhao.

The official on the side glanced at it, and said in his heart that the prince is the merry saint, such a timid little sheep, three times five divided by two, he is very obedient. But this little girl is so thin that she doesn't have two taels of meat, so she doesn't want to give it to me for nothing, the prince really has quirks.

"Is it the cousin who sold you from the family?" Ye Zhao asked.

Mingxia's eyes, which had just become a little angry, immediately dimmed again, and whispered: "I, my brother is seriously ill and looks down on the doctor, Daddy, Daddy ......"

Ye Zhao nodded, and sighed in his heart, in this era, this scene, I am afraid that it will be staged thousands of times, I have caught up today, I can save her from the fire pit, but I can't see it? I just hope that the country and the people will be safe as soon as possible!

The strings rang three times, the score was changed, the music gradually fluttered, Guan Wen was squinting, shaking his head and preparing to continue to enjoy, suddenly there was a noise outside, and then the door was kicked open, and a few people rushed in, Ye Zhao was stunned, turned his head to look, and was even more stunned.

Acquaintance, the green cloth cheongsam woman in the front is Guo Ziqiang, and behind her, is a girl in a black police uniform, very handsome, willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, delicate skin, wearing police uniform leather shoes heroic posture, tied with a belt can see her tall and full breasts, soft and slender waist and plump and graceful buttocks.

Behind the two women, several big men rushed in, it seemed that it was the nursing home of the painting boat, and the old bustard also chased in, and said loudly: "Hey, what are you doing?" What are you doing? ”

Outside the room, a few green-robed men soon came in, naturally the palace guards.

Guo Ziqiang's eyes were fixed on the little girl, and he shouted: "Mingxia! ”

"Teacher Guo." Mingxia stood up timidly.

Guo Ziqiang wanted to rush over, but was stopped by the painting boat nursing home.

The old bustard screamed: "I said what are you doing? Is there still a royal law here, oh my God! "Patting their legs and beating their chests, in fact, if it weren't for the presence of female patrols, I am afraid that the thugs would have been called out long ago.

Guo Ziqiang said to the old bustard in a loud voice: "She is a student of our school!" I'm going to take her away! ”

The old bustard immediately stopped crying, and his face became faster, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Okay, take the money, a hundred silver oceans!" ”

Guo Ziqiang was stunned, where did she have so much money, but she was not convinced and said loudly: "You forced Liang to become a prostitute, do you know if you have broken the law?" ”

The old bustard sneered: "What you say is inexplicable, what are you forcing a good person to be a prostitute, I have a serious deed, you ask her, did I force her?" He turned back to Mingxia and shouted, "Girl, you tell her, what did I force you?" ”

Guo Ziqiang said to Mingxia encouragingly: "Don't be afraid, you say it loudly, the teacher will help you." ”

Mingxia is not very old, she can be sensible early, and the children of the poor are in charge early. Thinking of her father's entrustment and her brother's illness, she bit her lip and shook her head slowly.

The old bustard came to his senses at once, "Look, look, why am I forcing her?" He turned his head to the beautiful woman and said, "Mrs. Guan, what did you say, what did I do?" She didn't know what to call the female patrol officer, since there was an official master, she would call Mrs. Guan.

The beautiful policewoman looked at her coldly, and asked Mingxia, "Mingxia, how old are you?" ”

Ye Zhao held his breath at this time, according to the law of Guangfu, those who have entered the industry early are not counted, this new girl must be at least sixteen, of course, it is a virtual age, if the female is not yet sixteen years old, not only will the cousin be punished, but this benefactor will also be detained.

If you are taken to the police station, you are afraid that your identity will be exposed, so you can't really be detained by them, right? And when his identity was exposed, the general Wang knew that he had broken the law and trampled on the laws he had formulated, which would have a bad impact and would inevitably be used as a fuss, which would be a fatal blow to the new policy.

Ye Zhao frowned at the moment and asked the policewoman: "Which district are you patrolling?" You don't have a separate law enforcement charter for patrols, do you? At least two people must be present to enforce the law! ”

When he spoke, Guo Ziqiang noticed him and exclaimed, "It's you?" ”

Ye Zhao said helplessly: "It's not me." ”

Guo Ziqiang's face was so disdainful, and he said loudly: "Something that is inferior to beasts, marry a twelve-year-old wife, and come to the courtyard to spoil the young girl, are you still human?" ”

The big guy looked at it with a staggered eye, and the old bustard said in his heart that it turned out that the old man Wang liked the little tender sheep. The official text pondered, how did she know the general Wang? But it seems that he doesn't know the identity of the prince. With Ye Zhao here, and it is the head of Guangzhou, the official document is very tight, and he is silent. After all, if the official mark is spread, it will be very bad.

When the beautiful policewoman heard Guo Ziqiang's words, her eyebrows frowned, and her eyes were a little cold when she saw Ye Zhao, obviously Ye Zhao was no different from a beast in her eyes.

She took out her patrol warrant and said in a clear voice: "I am a student arrester in the training class of the General Administration, and this time I am not law enforcement." ”

Ye Zhaocai didn't care what others thought of him, he had a clear conscience, and smiled: "It turns out that he hasn't graduated yet, so he is even less qualified to check people!" He threatened again: "Why don't you go quickly? Be careful that I complain to you, I can't do it if you can't patrol it. As he spoke, he took a few steps closer, pretended to look at her patrol warrant, and muttered the number in his mouth, but where did he really write it down? I saw the name of the policewoman clearly, "Zhu Sisi".

"You can just go and complain!" Zhu Sisi glared at him stubbornly, and asked Mingxia again, "Mingxia, don't lie, how old are you?" "According to the life, Mingxia is not yet sixteen.

Who knew that Mingxia bit her little lip and said, "I, I'm seventeen!" Knowing that Teacher Guo must be angry and sad, he didn't dare to go to see her.

Ye Zhao smiled: "Okay, two please!" Then he said to the old bustard: "Mama, I want to redeem Mingxia, a hundred silver oceans, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, Mr. is really generous, and he really hurts Mingxia, Mingxia followed Mr., it's really a creation."

Ye Zhao had already taken out a silver ticket from his body and handed it over, the old bustard took it happily, and called someone to get the deed.

Seeing that the two of them were shamelessly making such a deal right under their noses, Guo Ziqiang was about to go crazy and scolded: "Beast, beast!" "I wanted to rush over, but I was stopped by the Tangzi Nursing Hospital, where is the strength of a big man?

Zhu Sisi's bright big eyes stared at Ye Zhao, and she just sneered.

"You let her go, I'll go with you!" Zhu Sisi suddenly said crisply.

Ye Zhao was stunned, and looked over in surprise, the old bustard was also stunned, and said that this little beauty is crazy, right? If you want to say that she is willing to come to the hall, let alone a hundred Yinyang, it will be 10,000, I am afraid that some people will rush to ask for it.

Guo Ziqiang was stunned, and then knew Zhu Sisi's intentions, the two met in the Guangzhou Women's Association, although they didn't have much contact, but Zhu Sisi was calm and smart, and she was the first in the patrol training class.

Originally, everyone thought that Ye Zhao would agree immediately, but who knew that he looked Zhu Sisi up and down a few times, and Zhu Sisi was covered with goosebumps, in her eyes, Ye Zhao's eyes were naturally full of silver evil.

"Stupid as a pig!" Ye Zhao snorted coldly, but he also admired it in his heart, in this era, there are really all kinds of chivalrous people, girls, and chivalrous courage.

"Let's go." Ye Zhao looked at the official text.

The official document is a little discouraged, but I also know that if it is like this, it will not be done if I don't leave.

Watching Mingxia leave with the pervert like a lamb to be slaughtered, he turned back one step at a time, his eyes were full of despair. Guo Ziqiang was so angry that his brain was dizzy, and suddenly his eyes were dark, and he fainted.

Zhu Sisi was stunned, she wanted to chase out to see where the pervert was, and robbed him halfway, but now, she was bound to leave Ziqiang alone in this fireworks place, so she hurriedly picked up Guo Ziqiang and chased him out, but after such a delay, where could you still see the trace of the pervert?

The river is rolling, the river is like ink, and the lights are red and green.

Zhu Sisi's snow-white fist smashed on a willow tree by the river, her soft chest gasped violently, and the resentment in her heart was indescribable.
