Sister Liu's temperament is really different from that of ordinary fireworks women. Ordinary people should be in a hurry to pick up customers in the front yard at the moment, thinking that they are soliciting business, but Sister Liu chose to hide in a remote place and play the piano alone.

If ordinary people heard Shi Qingqian's praise, they would have raised their tails to the sky a long time ago, but Sister Liu would not hesitate to relegate herself to the dust, as if she was disgusted with herself and treated prostitutes more than others. The contempt of women is even greater.

She felt more and more that something had happened to Sister Liu. Such a woman who can maintain a high posture even after entering a brothel for many years is like a lotus flower that comes out of the mud and is not stained, how could such a woman be reduced to this?

So I had to stop worrying about Sister Liu'er's attitude towards herself, "Sister, thanks to your ...... last night"

During the day, she used to thank her, but because there were two female slaves staring, she had to change her words and say something out of tune, and now there were only the two of them in this deserted place, Shi Qingqian felt that it was better to thank her solemnly.

Sister Liu only chuckled for a moment, her countenance, which was enough to captivate the country and the city, was almost integrated with the soft moonlight, "Look at the clothes, you are also a young lady from a rich family, why do you need to thank me for being a little prostitute." ”

"Why not!" Shi Qingqian couldn't accept her being so self-contemptuous, every word she said was like disgust for her own life, such an attitude was worrying and distressing, "If it weren't for my sister's ancient way, Jing'an and I would not even survive last night, especially Jing'an, thanks to my sister's plaster, otherwise her back would definitely be ruined." ”

Hearing this, Sister Liu took a rare look at Shi Qingqian by herself, and saw that her originally luxurious clothes were in tatters and dirty at the moment, her body was covered with mud and blood, and there was still a circle of dried blood on her ankles.

But such an embarrassed little girl is still so vibrant when she speaks.

"I saved you last night because I felt that for a moment you looked like my sister...... But at this moment, you and her are really not the slightest similar. Sister Liu said, her eyes drifted into the distance again, looking at her, she must be missing her sister in her words.

"Sister, your sister...... Where is it at the moment? Shi Qingqian asked cautiously, she was afraid that Sister Liu'er's sister had passed away, which touched her pain.

"Naturally, it's at home." She seemed to know what she was worried about, "It's much harder to die than to live." ”

Sister Liu'er's answer made her breathe a sigh of relief. As long as people are alive, people who miss each other will always see each other one day, no matter what kind of situation they face, it is always better than being separated by yin and yang.

When I was working during the day today, I heard other slaves say that it was the third year that Sister Liu had come to the Red Silk Courtyard, because of her class's historical posture and that natural cold aura, she had become a rare treasure in this fireworks place. Speaking of Sister Liu's childhood, even the slaves felt strange, she voluntarily came to the Red Silk Courtyard, but she never fought or grabbed, like a puppet without consciousness, the bustard arranged for her to accompany that, and she went to accompany her.

They also said that with Sister Liu'er's appearance and piano skills, she can marry a rich man at will without her own efforts and enjoy glory and wealth. But she chose such a path.

Shi Qingqian didn't feel overly surprised, Sister Liu would not be willing to fall into the Qinglou, and there must be a reason for her to be 'willing'. As for this 'cause', whether it is for love, money, or survival, she doesn't know.

"By the way, sister, I still want you to inquire about something." Shi Qingqian thought that many people asked where the Red Silk Courtyard was located and how far it was from the capital, but everyone was extremely evasive of this question, presumably Min Niang had greeted them, and they were not allowed to tell her for fear that she would escape. "Sister, do you know that this Red Silk Courtyard is open in that area? How far is it from the capital? ”

Sister Liu shook her head, "I heard from the guests that this is Lizhou, but how far is it from your capital...... I don't know. ”

"No, I don't know?" Finally, she had an opening, but she didn't even know where it was, but what was the use of knowing a place name and not knowing the direction, "But sister, haven't you been here for three years?" ”

Shi Qingqian understands that even if ordinary women voluntarily join the Qinglou, they will not be willing to go to places near their homes, first, for fear of the influence of their worries, and secondly, for prostitutes. The woman's reputation is really not good, and spreading it will only discredit the family. Therefore, Sister Liu should not be a local, but in any case, she only knows one name from the state, and she doesn't know anything else, which is too much to say.

"What about three years, I've never left the Red Silk Courtyard, and I don't even know what the street outside the door looks like." Sister Liu's tone was cold and emotionless.

Shi Qingqian didn't know how to describe her, there would be someone who lived in a green building for three years, and never left a single step during this period. Although the freedom of the fireworks girls will be restricted to a certain extent, they will not be completely imprisoned......

So, she's either tightly controlled by someone to move or ...... The heart is like ashes, and it doesn't matter where you are.

That night, Shi Qingqian almost forgot what kind of mood he had to say goodbye to Sister Liu, and how he walked back to the broken firewood house where he lived with heavy steps.

After talking to Sister Liu, it seemed that a big stone pressed against her heart, making her unable to feel comfortable no matter what. It wasn't until the next day that she went to the laundry shop that she couldn't dispel this emotion.

Seeing that the female slave who was washing clothes next to her had a kind face, Shi Qingqian leaned over with her clothes and talked to her, "This big sister, why did Sister Liu in the Red Silk Courtyard come in?" I see that she has a good temperament, light and elegant, how can she ......"

"She? It's also light and elegant," the slave girl didn't look at Shi Qingqian at all, and said while rubbing the clothes in her hands, the only pleasure in the backyard on weekdays is to chew the root of people's tongues, she is very accustomed to saying, "Elegant people, become prostitutes. Female, if it were me, I would have crashed to death! ”

At this time, the slave girl in the distance came over with great interest, she knew a lot about this matter, and a sense of superiority naturally rose in a group of eight women, "Yo, you don't know yet, right?" When this Sister Liu first came, she also searched for a short time in three days, and I heard that she hit the pillar, failed to die, and hanged herself, but she was still rescued...... Ouch, she is a cash cow, how can she just disappear casually, and then Min Niang sent someone to keep an eye on her all the time, just for fear that she would die. ”

Hearing this, Shi Qingqian suddenly understood what Sister Liu'er meant by Sister Liu's gentle and shallow sentence last night, 'Death is much more difficult than living'.

She is also a person who is not afraid of death, but because she can bring great benefits to the Red Silk Academy, it is impossible for Min Niang to let her die easily. Living is extremely tormenting, and dying is such a difficult thing.

It's no wonder that Sister Liu regards her life and dignity as child's play. The meaning of her life now is just a tool used by the Red Silk Academy to make money.

Shi Qingqian suppressed the sadness in his heart and continued to ask: "That eldest sister, do you know why she entered this Red Silk Courtyard?" ”
