I looked up.

Chu Huoyu was getting off the tricycle with her skirt in hand. I stood up and busied myself with the money from my pocket.

"The money has been paid. As soon as I got in the car, I gave it to the master. ”

I rubbed my hands together, "You...... Was it okay last night? ”

Chu Huoyu is still "white up and down" today, but instead of a long skirt, it has been replaced with a short skirt. The blouse was separated from the skirt, but it was still milky white. The culottes have two layers, the outer one covers the knees.

A pair of black stiletto heels on the soles of his feet.

Chu Huoyu did not apply powder, but only trimmed the eyebrows into a line, and the skin was smooth and tender, like the bean curd that the farmer had just washed with gypsum, and it would break when it was flicked, or water would seep out when it was pressed.

"What's in me—is there?" Chu Huo Yu smiled.

"No, no," my face turned red, "No, I, worry, Brother Wang ...... last night"

"I must have been late to make you think so, didn't I? Sorry, I overslept. Brother Wang didn't treat me well. Chu Huoyu said.

"No, I'm worried about it from last night until now. Didn't he really do anything to you? "I'm afraid that Chu Huoyu has something to hide. That stuffy stick can't explain the past in a few words.

"Really. After you left, I woke up Brother Wang, and then told him that he had drunk too much wine and knocked on the stage. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"It's as simple as that. People who drink too much and are groggy and groggy, how can they tell the difference between the real and the fake? Just as Xiaohong came out after finishing his work, I asked Xiaohong to help him go to rest. Chu Huoyu said very easily.

"Will he say yes? He's not ......"

"Your stick knocked him out of all his thoughts. You must be worried, right? ”

I nodded, "I caused the matter, but I let you bear it alone, and I don't want to go." ”

"What are you talking about? Didn't I know you were for me? Okay, let's not talk about that. You can see it, I don't have a single hair missing. We're not going to be here all the time, are we? Chu Huoyu took the initiative to change the topic.

"There is a small fitness place in the community, where there are two rows of chairs, I don't know ......"

"Okay, let's go sit there."

We walked to the fitness facility in the complex. In the middle of the afternoon, there was no one there. The green trees behind the row of chairs block the sun on the other side, and although it is the weather at the end of May, it is not very hot to sit on the row chairs.

We sat in a row of chairs for a long time. Chu Huoyu recounted her experience after she came out of school with me.

Chu Huoyu left me a long letter and immediately got on the train to the provincial capital. The sad state of mind is indescribable. She is ready to do both, if the fibroids are benign, then live well, because, even if she is not nostalgic, her sick father needs her to live; And if the fibroids are malignant, then die bravely, as she told me in the letter, hiding in a no-man's corner, and passing away silently.

Fortunately, the test results showed that the fibroids were benign. The doctor at the Hua'an Maternal and Child Health Station played a big joke on her.

When he heard the doctor say, "Little girl, it's okay, you can just have surgery to remove the tumor when it's bigger", Chu Huoyu didn't want to laugh but wanted to cry.

Chu Huoyu truly experienced that mental torture was far more painful than physical torture. How many days and nights, how many times I washed my face with tears, how many times I resented and resented.

Since God has not completely despaired her, she must live well.

This is also what she had in mind.

But she didn't want to go back to school, and she didn't want to go home. When you go home, you can't face your parents and neighbors; When I go back to school, I don't want to live that humiliating life anymore.

The main thing is that her father's illness no longer needs to cost a lot of money, and she can no longer sell her body.

Just find some work to do, earn a little money, have a good life, and send a little surplus back to your hometown. This is what Chu Huoyu thought when he walked out of the Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital easily.

However, Chu Huoyu didn't expect that it would be more difficult for a girl without any skills to gain a foothold in the provincial capital than to ascend to the sky. Housing and eating, these two items alone make a five-foot man bend his waist, let alone a weak woman?

Therefore, naturally, the rest of the money on the body was spent, and a word called "desperate" could be used to describe the fire storage jade.

So, I met Brother Wang. Or, Brother Wang, who had long been eyeing the storage of fire jade, appeared.

At that time, Brother Wang's Pegatron Leisure House had been open for a whole year, but the business was very bad, or not as good as imagined, mainly because the "girls" came and went, and there was nothing very influential.

Just as a good school needs a group of famous teachers, and a good restaurant needs one or several famous chefs, a "good" leisure house needs one or several good "girls".

Anyone who knows a little bit of wild history knows that Hangzhou Qinglou is because of Su Xiaoxiao, and the talented and beautiful people will never forget it; It is precisely because of Master Li that Bianjing Qinglou has become a source of high-ranking officials and nobles.

What Brother Wang is looking for is a talented and good-looking "girl" like Su Xiaoxiao and Master Li, and Chu Huoyu was targeted by her.

It can't be done overnight. Chu Huoyu will not be willing to be a lady sitting on the stage. No one wants to get from one cage to another, from one fire pit to another.

Presumably, when the landlord was clamoring to throw away her "belongings" for the rent that could not be paid for a long time (Chu Huoyu decided to live in the provincial capital and decisively rented a house), Brother Wang happened to pass by, and her beautiful appearance, graceful posture and passive life situation made Brother Wang "heartbeat".

There is no shortage of girls with good looks and graceful postures in the world, but if you live a rich life, you will never become a dusty woman; Girls who are extremely passive in life situations also abound in this world, but if you don't have an appearance that attracts the attention of men, it is unlikely that you will become a fireworks girl.

One is indispensable.

The fire jade happens to have both. Can Brother Wang let it go?

Brother Wang seems to be five big and three coarse, but he is a very scheming person. Just like when Ximenqing fell in love with Pan Jinlian, he tried to find Wang Po to match, and Brother Wang discussed it with the landlord of Chu Huoyu - constantly urging Chu Huoyu to pay the rent but did not drive her out, and kept letting her live, until Chu Huoyu could no longer afford the rent at one time, and the landlord gave an ultimatum - if he didn't pay the rent, he would send it to the police station - at this time, Brother Wang appeared.

400 or 600 yuan, in the era of scarcity, can be equivalent to freedom. For this money, Chu Huoyu sold his freedom to Brother Wang and went to Pegatron Leisure House to be a stage lady. However, he agreed with Brother Wang in black and white, only sitting on the stage and not selling his body, just like a Japanese geisha, but there is an eight-year contract. That is to say, it is necessary to serve Pegatron Leisure House for eight years before he can "reclaim" his freedom and change careers.

"Did you sign an agreement or a treaty or something?" I asked.

Chu Huoyu nodded, "I also pressed the handprint." ”

"What will he do to you if you break the contract?"

"No one dares to break the contract with Brother Wang," Chu Huoyu said, a trace of helplessness drifting over her beautiful face, "He's a tyrant here." ”

"You really have to serve him for eight years before you can break free from his shackles, do you?"

Chu Huoyu smiled bitterly, "Is there any other way?" ”

"Is there really nothing you can do?" My heart is desolate. Chu Huoyu has only been "serving" Pegatron Leisure House for two years, and there are still six years before the expiration of the agreement. In six years, how many things will happen? Especially in the dire situation.

Last night's scene alone told me how hard Chu Huoyu's life was.

"It's not like I haven't thought about breaking the contract," Chu Huoyu's eyes were a little red, "I also know that my situation is very bad, you also saw it last night, and I don't know how long I can maintain my current identity." As the old saying goes, if you walk by the river, you can't get your shoes wet. I know that. ”

"But I don't think it would be easy for you to go if you really wanted to? One train ticket is enough. I said.

"Zheng Qihang, you haven't been to the society and don't know how complicated the society is," Chu Huoyu felt a sense of vicissitudes, "Don't they have a certain ability to dare to do this business?" Do you know how much it takes to do this business? ”

I shook my head, indicating that I still didn't understand. From my point of view, as long as you save money to buy a train ticket, leaving the provincial capital is a word, not to mention that he has a leisure house.

"He cut off all my retreats." Chu Huoyu continued.

"It's not like he'll send someone to keep an eye on you, right?"

"Not really, although he does have a few thugs. It's not called a thug, it's just mixed together. Isn't it okay for me to be here for so long? ”

"Yes, it's been so long that you've been able to leave the provincial capital." I'm a little excited.

"Brother Wang made my home address clear."

"What do you mean?" I really can't get my head around. What does Brother Wang's control have to do with figuring out the person's home address?

"That's why I envy you scholars. That's why I'm always dissatisfied with God. Chu Huoyu wiped the long hair on his forehead back, "At the same age, you can live so simply, but I live so complicated." ”

I paused. When he said this, he must have lived too vicissitudes. I really want to say, "No, Chu Huoyu, you're wrong, my life is not easy at all." In this society, no one can live a simple life in the first place. But what I said was, "I know you've been through a lot."

"Really, Brother Wang's words made me have no thoughts, he said, if you want to break the contract, your parents and everyone in your village will understand what you have done." Chu Huoyu's expression was desolate.

"Can there be such a vicious person?" This trick is something I couldn't have expected.

All the flattering girls are doing this behind their parents' backs and hiding from the villagers. No matter how lowly they are, they still value their reputation in the village.

"Which one of you is not vicious in this business?" Chu Huoyu is very calm, it should be commonplace.

I sighed deeply.

"But I never dreamed of meeting you here, you may not know that you appeared in front of me that night, and I didn't sleep well all night." Chu Huoyu obviously wanted to change the topic again.

"I, I am," I felt embarrassed, "I never go to that kind of place." It was a drink that day. ”

"Wine strengthens heroes."

"It's not. It was my brother who always talked about you, saying that there was a fairy-like woman in the Pegatron Leisure House, and she was laughing but not selling, which aroused our curiosity, so he dragged me over. You don't know, you're famous. I said.

"Aren't you laughing at me? Mixed to such an extent, what other fame? However, fame is already a luxury for someone like me who lives without any dignity. ”

"No, no," I couldn't help but grasp the hand that Chu Huoyu had been holding on my lap in my hand, "You're wrong, Huoyu, you're one of the women I respect the most. I have misunderstood you and despised you, but after I understand your hardships, I admire you from the bottom of my heart, otherwise, I would not have chased you to the provincial capital alone. It's a pity that the provincial capital is too big. Also, you insist on sitting on the stage and not ...... As the saying goes, out of the mud and not stained, you are more holy than anyone else. ”

"Thank you for your comfort."
