The man in Tsing Yi led Situ Nanyun into a courtyard called "Drunken Xiangju" next to him.

The courtyard is red and green, gorgeously decorated, and from time to time there is a burst of laughter and noise.

"What does this drunken incense house do?" Situ Nanyun asked while looking.

"This is a brothel." The man in Tsing Yi replied truthfully.

"Then I'll only do the sweeping work here, and I won't do anything else." Situ Nanyun looked at the man in Tsing Yi with some unease.

"Of course, you can't do it if you want to, you have to have the approval of the government." The man in Tsing Yi said with a smile.

The two of them passed through a hall, turned a few corners, and came to a row of low houses, and the man in Tsing Yi took her first to the stove room on the left, and then to the bedroom on the east side.

"From now on, you'll live here, and there's a girl to keep you company." The man in Tsing Yi finished speaking and was leaving.

"Thank you, I still want to ask, how is the salary calculated?" Situ Nanyun grabbed the sleeve of the man in Tsing Yi and asked, knowing how much money she was making, she could plan what she would do next.

"Ten cents a day, settled on a daily basis." The man in Tsing Yi replied as he walked.

Situ Nanyun first went to the stove room to find something to eat, and then entered the room, where a woman in her twenties was doing embroidery work, with thin eyebrows and long eyes, dignified and delicate.

She put down the work in her hand and smiled at Situ Nanyun, "My name is Xianglu, you are welcome to be my companion, what is your name?" ”

"You call me Yun'er, I'm just here, and I'm in charge of the sprinkling here." Situ Nanyun replied with a smile.

"I'm also doing sweeping work, I'm in charge of the 'Huanyangju' in the back building, what about you?" Xianglu didn't feel a little cheerful when she saw her peers.

"I don't know yet, I won't know until tomorrow...... What is that 'Huanyangju'? Situ Nanyun asked curiously, this drunken Xiangju is a brothel, will Huanyangju also be a brothel, but the name is a little strange.

Xianglu grinned, "This is a place to appreciate beautiful men, it is full of beautiful men, all kinds of types, hehe." ”

Situ Nanyun was very curious, "There are actually male prostitutes?" Is the person who goes up there a man or a woman? She knew that there was a popular style of broken sleeves in ancient times, and it would be the place for men.

Xianglu winked at her, "If you want to know, I'll take you to see it tomorrow, and you'll find out." ”

Situ Nanyun found a job, solved the problem of food and clothing, and fell asleep happily.

Early the next morning, Xianglu went to work, Situ Nanyun rested in the house, and when she heard someone shouting, she came out.

The man was an old man of fifty or sixty years old, glanced at her, and said: "Girl, I am the steward here, they call me Ye Bo, you can also call me that, you are responsible for the sprinkling and cleaning of the front yard and the courtyard lobby and the east and west wings, breakfast is ready for Mama Zhang, you can work after you finish eating," paused, and continued, "Oh, by the way, the salary is ten yuan, one day is settled, and every day you go to the account room Li Bo to settle the bill." ”

Situ Nanyun already knew the salary yesterday, so she was not very surprised, and after thanking Ye Bo, she went to the stove room for breakfast, which was a steamed bun and a bowl of rice porridge.

Situ Nanyun took a broom to clean in the yard, except for some leaves, there was basically no clutter in the yard, she waved the broom, swept it in three or two clicks, and swept it carefully, and went to the inner hall when she felt that it was very clean.

The inner hall is actually a song and dance hall called "Yakexuan". In the middle of the inner hall is a circular stage, the top of the stage is an octagon, and on each side is hung with a bamboo curtain of exquisite workmanship, which can be rolled or placed according to the needs of the stage performance. The stage is surrounded by rows of small semi-compartments, with three rows of ten cubicles each, and there is a drop of two steps between the rows, so as not to obscure the view. In the compartment, there are small couches and round tables, on which fruit saucers and tea sets are placed, and under which there is a bamboo basket containing melon peels and husks.

Situ Nanyun, with the experience of watching movies or acting in modern times, thought that it would be very dirty inside, but he didn't expect it to be very clean, and he had to admire the elegance of this "elegant guest" behavior.

She didn't have much to do, mainly to empty the clutter in the bamboo basket, then wipe the table with a rag and mop the floor, and soon it was done, she checked each compartment again, and found nothing that slipped through the net, so she went to the east and west wings upstairs.

There are a total of 12 wings on the upper floor, five on the east side and seven on the west side. The east wing room is named after "bamboo", "plum", "lotus", "orchid" and "chrysanthemum", and the name of the west wing room is more fragrant, such as "love fragrance", "Yifang", "drunk red" and so on.

Situ Nanyun started cleaning from the bamboo room in the east wing, thinking that there would be some unsightly things inside, but she didn't expect that it was elegant and elegant, which made her secretly surprised. There are hanging screens of landscape paintings on the walls, exquisite antiques and books are displayed on the Duobao Pavilion, the four treasures of the study room are placed on the bookcase, the screen divides the room into two, the outer room is the reception room, the inner room is the bedroom, and Situ Nanyun is only responsible for the sprinkling and cleaning of the outer room.

She felt that it was a pleasure to work in such an elegant room, and secretly guessed in her heart that the owners of the east wing should be the legendary geisha, who usually do not sell their bodies, so the style of the room is also elegant and chic.

The west wing room is the complete opposite, as its name suggests, the furnishings in the room are more fragrant, the light purple curtain is embroidered with a maid with bare fragrant shoulders, the screen on the wall is a picture of the male and female acacia, the tea utensils placed on several cases are painted with a series of storylines of the spring palace, the Duobao Pavilion is displayed with some antiques engraved with patterns of special parts of men and women, and the inner room and the outer room are only separated by a layer of tulle, and the fragrant scenes inside can be seen vividly.

When Situ Nanyun went in to clean, he happened to see some unsightly scenes, although there was a layer of tulle in the middle, but it did not play a substantial role, and the flesh shadow of Bai Huahua and the coquettish panting sound clearly came out through the tulle. Although Situ Nanyun pressed the hat of the overalls to the lowest, his eyes only saw the ground under his feet, and he covered his ears with one hand fiercely, he still felt greatly disturbed, and his face was red and irritable.

Situ Nanyun finished her work in one go, and rushed out of the west wing.

At this time, when he first arrived, Situ Nanyun had nothing else to do, so he walked around the street, thinking about finding some work in the afternoon to earn some money to subsidize the future travel expenses.

Seeing that there was a message about the recruitment of "bookkeepers", she went over to inquire.

The other party asked her, "Do you know how to settle accounts?" ”

She replied, "Yes." ”

"Please try the abacus."

She quickly shook her head, "This won't work, I'm sorry!" ”

A hotel was hiring a clerk, and she walked in with the mindset of giving it a try.

The other party asked, "Can you read and write?" ”

She confidently replied, "Yes!" ”

"Then write an invitation and take a look."

As soon as Situ Nanyun mentioned the pen and wrote, he realized that ancient characters are used here, and he knows more about ancient characters, but he can write less.

She looked apologetic and walked out with a disgraced face under the surprised gaze of the other party.

There was also a trace of silk shop recruiting short-term workers, and Situ Nanyun walked in to try his luck.

The other party asked, "Which kind of embroidery are you good at, is it southern embroidery or northern embroidery, double-sided embroidery or single-sided ......embroidery?" ”

Without waiting for the main question to finish, she waved her hand again and again, and fled again.
