Glancing at her mother-in-law's eyes, Song Yao nodded in agreement.

This girl doesn't have to buy it, and Song Yao won't throw money at every turn to do good deeds to save people, but she wants to see what stands out about the girl who can make this woman spend a lot of money to buy, maybe she can use it.

When the mother-in-law said just now that she would be willing to sell it for 10,000 taels of silver, Song Yao was sure from her look that the mother-in-law was really losing money.

It's just that this dance shop is going to close, and if you can't sell all the girls, the woman will only lose more.

The mother-in-law took Song Yao to the door of the girl's room and went up to knock on the door.

Song Yao would not come alone, and after smelling the strong smell of medicine, she only brought her red sleeves into the door, leaving everyone else waiting outside.

There are secret guards, and the ear power of Hong Qi and the others is extraordinary, so they don't have to worry about Song Yao's danger.

"Qinghai, you go and talk about the price first. The seven people on the right, as long as they are not outrageously expensive, will accept the rest of them if the price is suitable. Before entering the house, Song Yao instructed Qinghai that she also wanted to send her mother-in-law to leave first.

Unexpectedly, Song Yao bought all the girls in her hands at one time, and her mother-in-law was so happy that she couldn't keep her mouth shut, and when she negotiated the price with Qinghai, she was still looking forward to Song Yao being able to buy the last girl, so that she could really close the door and go home with the silver to support the elderly.

Song Yao didn't have time to pay attention to her mother-in-law's thoughts, and after entering the door, the strong smell of medicine made Song Yao a little uncomfortable, and she subconsciously covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

"Red sleeves, you go and open the window, if you don't ventilate, the good people will also get sick." Song Yao commanded.

"Yes." Red Sleeves answered, and went to open the window.

The woman in the room coughed heavily, as if she was about to cough out all the lobes of her lungs.

Song Yao couldn't help frowning a little when she heard footsteps approaching, and it was the sound of dragging her feet over.

How sick is this, so that it is difficult to even walk?

"Who are you?" After a while, a woman with a pale face came out, leaning against the wall and panting.

Although the woman's face was very ugly and sickly, those eyes full of sorrow were pitiful to me, and even the woman couldn't help but want to pity a little when she saw it.

The woman's appearance is excellent, Song Yao didn't know how to describe it for a while, she only sighed that if she was willing to sell her art or body, she would definitely be the number one in the Qinglou.

"Someone who wants to buy you." Song Yao went straight to the point.

Hearing this, the woman's expression was a little colder, but there was not much surprise.

"Isn't the girl afraid that my tuberculosis will be contagious?" The woman laughed to herself.

"Can you tell I'm a woman?" Song Yao was stunned for a moment.

Then I thought of what this place was, and the strange look of my mother-in-law when she saw her, and I realized that I couldn't hide this from a woman dressed as a man.

The identity was revealed, but he didn't care about the other party's answer.

"Why should the girl do anything with her body? Even if the wind and cold are long ago, other diseases will be derived, and maybe it will affect Shoulu. Song Yao found a chair and sat down, and said with a light smile: "If you are really sick, I'm afraid that the mother-in-law won't be able to tolerate you, even if you lose a lot of money, she will throw you out to fend for yourself." ”

Not to mention whether the woman would worry about other girls being infected, anyone who spared his life would not risk being infected for the sake of silver.

The woman smiled bitterly and strolled to the opposite of Song Yao and sat down, although she still had a bit of a sickly sense of powerlessness, she didn't mean to faint at any time like just now.

It can be seen that the woman had the element of pretending to be sick just now.

"Isn't the girl afraid that I will suffer a loss if I buy it? No matter how many means a girl has, I won't sell my art, let alone sell my body. The woman looked at Song Yao with a firm gaze, and said in a low voice: "It's better to be broken than broken." ”

Hearing this, Red Sleeves' body stiffened.

She had thought of this sentence before, but in the end she didn't make that choice.

It's just that Red Sleeves didn't speak, after all, everyone's choice is different, and what she says now is not enough to make the other party believe.

"I heard that the girl is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Song Yao didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"Yes." The woman nodded, "Born in an official family, I have to learn this." The only thing I can do is to live up to my parents' reputation and live up to their parenting grace. ”

"Listening to your voice, it seems to be from the south, not from the capital?" Song Yao still didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"Yes." The woman was a little surprised, it was the first time someone had talked to her like this, and she couldn't help but be solemn.

"Do you have a fiancé, or a man in love, waiting for you?" Song Yao asked again.

The woman's face froze, and she immediately lowered her eyelashes, covering her look, and shook her head gently.

Song Yao smiled suddenly, her fingers tapped lightly on the table, and she was not in a hurry to ask again.

When the woman gathered her thoughts, she raised her head, her face had returned to coldness, and she said to Song Yao: "Girl, please go back, it's not worth spending money on me." ”

"If I don't force you to pick up customers, but buy you to be a female teacher, teaching girls piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and dancing, are you willing?" Song Yao chuckled and said, "You have a cup of tea to consider, I don't have time to wait too long." ”

The woman was stunned for a while, and asked with a little suspicion: "I spent a lot of money to buy me to be a female teacher, doesn't the girl feel that it is too much of a loss?" ”

"Buying a tutor outside is indeed less valuable than you. But those people have less of what you have imprinted in your bones, which silver can't buy. Song Yao said lightly.

The woman didn't know why, and her eyebrows were furrowed.

"If you're strong-willed, why don't you take a gamble? That woman spent so much money to buy you, she won't be willing to just go down the drain. If you miss this opportunity today, you won't even have the opportunity to gamble. After Song Yao finished speaking, she got up and said, "It's time for a cup of tea, if the girl is willing to follow me to do things, then go out with me." ”

"Please stay, ma'am." The woman hurriedly got up, made a blessing to Song Yao, half-squatted and said, "If Madame can keep her promise, Zixi will do my best to repay Madame." I would also like to ask Madame to wait for me for a moment and allow me to pack some things. ”

"Well, go ahead." Song Yao didn't answer Zixi's words, but smiled at Red Sleeves: "The name is very good, it seems that I have to buy a few more people, maybe I can open a dyeing workshop around me." ”

"If the lady doesn't like the name of the slave, just give her a name." Red Sleeves knew that Song Yao was joking, so he also replied with a smile.

After Song Yao went out, she motioned to Qinghai to give the silver to the mother-in-law, and prepared to leave.

I bought so many girls at one time, so I have to let people arrange it first, and I can't take them to continue to buy people, in case it is misunderstood that it is a smashing field, it will not be fun.

However, before coming, Song Yao had already decided to send these girls to the Zhuangzi in the suburbs first, but she couldn't go out tonight, so she could only let them go to a newly bought house first.

Anyway, the house is empty, and you don't need to prepare much for only one night.

"Lovely people, take them to the idle house first, and let the mother-in-law prepare more meals, so as not to treat the girls badly."

Song Yao commanded, thinking about so many delicate girls, she was afraid that she would encounter trouble when she walked on the road, and she was not the one who could walk far.

Then he instructed: "Hong Qi, you arrange for someone to hire a few carriages, and send them to the mansion over there by the way." ”

Hong Qi nodded and waved his hand at a brother, but he didn't bother to say a word.

Song Yao has long been accustomed to Hong Qi's indifference, and she doesn't care about it, as long as things are done, it's good not to speak, pure.

The mother-in-law sold all the girls at once, so she was naturally very happy, so she almost waved a handkerchief, so that Song Yao was free to come often.

After visiting a few more places, Song Yao didn't see many girls she liked, but she bought a few rough subordinates, and they were either lonely or widowed, so it was convenient to serve these girls.

After all, I bought more than 100 people at once, and I have to go to the government tomorrow to file for the record, and then I can send them outside the city, so Song Yao handed over everything to Qinghai to do.

A few days ago, Qingshan went to the government too many times, and he should be a new face when he changed to Qinghai Quan, so as not to be stuck with too much oil and water, and it would attract people's attention.

However, after Song Yao and his party returned to the mansion, the concierge was in a hurry to report a news that made Song Yao cold-faced.

The study caught fire, but it was still set on fire.

"Is the young master okay?" Song Yao's first reaction was to care about her son's safety, and nothing else mattered.

"The young master was guarded, and he didn't come out of the yard all the time." The porter replied.

"Got it." Song Yao had a cold face and strode in the direction of the study.

Although two secret guards were left to guard the study, ten people came from the other side, and the two secret guards naturally couldn't take precautions.

Song Yuanbao has a secret guard by her side, but Song Yao has already explained that even if it endangers her, the people who protect Song Yuanbao are not allowed to come to the rescue, and protecting Song Yuanbao's safety is their only responsibility.

So knowing that someone set fire to the study, the people over there did not show up.

If it weren't for the subordinates shouting to report to the official, the secret guards guarding the study were very high, and those who came to set fire would not leave until the study burned down, and then the study would really be scrapped, and the things inside would have turned into ashes, and the loss would be immeasurable.

Rao is like this, when Song Yao rushed to the study, he was still angry and wanted to find out the person behind the curtain and clean up his anger fiercely.

Although there are not many valuable things in the study, there are also some ledgers and paperwork.

And Song Yao spent so much effort to paint a good painting, even if it was not burned, it would be terrible after it was smoked.

"Aoyama, check." Song Yao stood in front of the bookcase and commanded in a cold voice.

The painting he painted in collaboration with He Liansheng before has been collected by Song Yao in the room, and he plans to find someone to frame it after leaving the capital, otherwise it will be wasted.

Qingshan nodded and left, even if Song Yao didn't give orders, he would investigate to the end.

"Red sleeves, let the secret guard follow you, take this token to the palace gate, and let people pass through the Pingxue girl next to the queen's mother, and say that my study has been burned." Song Yao handed the token to Red Sleeves and commanded.

"Slave and maid, go now." Redsleeves took the token and walked away quickly.

Song Yao sat in the study, and could still smell the smell of burnt wood, and she was irritable.

The capital is really a complicated place, she just painted a picture for the queen, and someone wanted to burn her study.

No matter who it is, no matter what implicates her, this matter must not end like this, otherwise she will be bullied in the future.

"Mother!" Before Song Yao could calm down her anger, she heard Song Yuanbao's worried call, and then a small meat bun crashed into her arms.
