Chapter 381: Failed Escape
Chapter 381: Failed Escape
Hearing that Li Luobing's question became more and more sharp, the little maid realized that she had said a little too much today, so she hurriedly washed a few fruits for Li Luobing, put down a small medicine bottle and left here.
If she really became an Oiran, she would probably be popular all over the country, and if so, maybe someone who knew her would find her based on this news, and then she would be able to retrieve her lost memories.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Li Luobing still compromised and agreed to the bustard's request to let her be an oiran. Hearing Li Luobing's nod in agreement, the bustard was very happy, and immediately prepared a lot of silver and a bunch of jewelry for her to dress up.
When the little maid was dressing up Li Luobing, Li Luobing kept staring at the small medicine bottle on the table in a daze.
"What the hell is this for?" Last time, the little maid put it down in a hurry, and left without even saying a word.
"This is the one that my mother removed the scar from, didn't you have a previous injury on your face? If you apply it this way, all the scars will disappear. ”
The little maid was busy working on Li Luobing's head while holding her words, and after tossing for nearly an hour, it was finally good.
"Okay, that's fine, Mom said you'll be able to meet the guests tonight."
"Am I going to go out like this today?" Li Luobing raised her head with difficulty, looked at herself in the mirror and asked, she was almost out of breath under the weight of her head full of jewelry.
She had never tried to dress like this before, and today was the first time, and it was so painful to feel that every Oiran had to dress up like this.
"Of course, my mother also gave you a lot of beautiful jewelry, but unfortunately there is no room on your head, and the slaves and maids have not put it on you." The little maid nodded and pushed the rest of the jewelry in front of Li Luobing.
Li Luobing's head had already been covered with the little maid before, and now when he saw these jewelry, he was indifferent at all, just glanced at them and let the little maid put it aside.
The little maid also listened to Li Luobing's words very much, and after packing everything, she looked back at Li Luobing in the mirror.
"I've already prepared everything I should have prepared, why are you still looking at me like this?" Li Luobing was furious by the little maid's eyes, and turned her head to ask her.
"I'm sorry girl, the slave always feels that something is missing, and I will call my mother over to take a look at it later." After staring at Li Luobing for a long time, the little maid said with some embarrassment.
The old bustard rushed here when he heard the news, and when he entered the door, he saw Li Luobing's somewhat painful expression, and hurriedly stepped forward to take off all the jewelry on her head, and counted the little maid next to her while picking it up.
"How can you dress up like that? Didn't that crush the girl? ”
"But......" The little maid wanted to argue, the previous Oiran had all dressed like this, how could it not be that she could get here.
"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about it here, I'll just do it myself." The bustard waved his hand impatiently and drove the little maid out.
"Girl, I'm sorry, that maid was ignorant just now." After the little maid left, the bustard apologized to Li Luobing with an unusually good attitude, which made her a little flattered.
"I'm not going to go today!" Halfway through the bustard's work, Li Luobing suddenly spoke.
"This ......" the old bustard's face showed a look of embarrassment, today she has already said to the outside world, will let everyone meet the new Oiran, and now suddenly she can't go, how should she explain to those people?
"I'm really uncomfortable today, I'm not in the mood at all, let's talk about it in three days!" Li Luobing said as he put his hand on his forehead.
Seeing her like this, the old bustard was afraid that he would scare her away because of this incident, so he gritted his teeth and agreed to her request.
"Okay, since the girl is uncomfortable, let's talk about it in three days, and the girl doesn't have to worry about other things."
After the news of this incident spread, although those who heard the news were dissatisfied, they had no way to force it, so they could only accept this fact very reluctantly.
But after those girls heard about this, they couldn't hold back the anger in their hearts anymore, discussed with each other, and came to Li Luobing's room angrily.
"Why didn't you show today?" A group of people surrounded Li Luobing in the middle and questioned her.
"I wasn't feeling well, so I didn't go." Li Luobing didn't want to deal with the unreasonable troubles of these people, so he just responded to them calmly.
"Mother kindly gave you a new name for you to eat and wear, and it is already a great blessing that you can be an Oiran, but you still don't know what to do?"
Several women around pointed at Li Luobing and scolded, Li Luobing was alone, so he could only turn his head and avoid their scolding.
"What are you doing? Why are you all here, why don't you let me out soon? "When the old bustard heard the news, he rushed here, and then drove them away.
"Shen Bing, don't take this matter to heart, they are too anxious." The old bustard called Li Luobing and said.
Shen Bing is the new name she gave Li Luobing, and when she asked Li Luobing before, she only left the word "Bing" in her mind.
"I see." Li Luobing nodded.
When the bustard saw that she was calm, he comforted her a few more words and left.
As soon as the old bustard left, Li Luobing immediately got up and closed the door, what she said about going back in three days was actually just an expedient measure, and she already regretted it the moment she agreed to the Oiran.
Especially after the siege of those people just now, she felt that this was not the place she should stay, whether it was her character or feeling, there was a big gap from here.
If you don't take advantage of their lax supervision in the past few days to escape, then you may really be buried in this place for the rest of your life.
After thinking of this, Li Luobing hurriedly packed up her things, in fact, there was nothing, only some clothes she wore when she fell into the water, and some silver taels that the bustard had given him in advance in the past few days.
After packing up all these things, Li Luobing sat in the room and quietly waited for the evening to come. By the end of the evening, when all the guests had arrived, and the supervision of her was at its lax, she might be able to leave the place while there was chaos.
The sky gradually darkened, and the Qinglou gradually began to be full of people, and from time to time there would be the sound of someone drunk and shouting outside.
Li Luobing tentatively opened the door, and after finding that no one was paying attention to the corner where he was, he sneaked down the stairs with his package and ran to the back door of the Qinglou.
During this time, she had also observed that this was the closest route to her, as long as she went out through the back door of the Qinglou, she might be able to leave here, although she didn't know what was waiting for her outside.
But it backfired, and when she just came down the stairs, she met the little maid in the green building.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the upstairs room? ”
"I'm ......" Li Luobing was arrested, and he had nothing to say for a while.
"Look there, it looks like there's someone making trouble." She pointed in a direction and stooped past them while the little guy was turning his head.
When these people turned around, they found that the figure just now was gone.
"The person has already run away, chase me!" The movement on their side also attracted the attention of the old bustard, and when she learned that Li Luobing had escaped, she was also furious.
It seems that he was too kind to her before, and he was too lax in supervising her, so that this happened.
After recovering her this time, he must take strict care of her, and it was not easy to find an Oiran with such a good look, and he must not let this cash cow run away.
The old bustard almost asked all the idle people to go to chase and intercept Li Luobing, but because the route was unfamiliar and there were many people in the Qinglou, Li Luobing was finally arrested.
When she was taken back to that room, the bustard's attitude towards her was completely different from before.
"Say, why are you leaving here?"
"I don't want to stay here anymore." Li Luobing is right.
"Well, since you don't want to stay here, return all the money I gave you before, and all the money you used to eat and invite you to stay here for the next few days."
"How much silver do you need?" Li Luobing asked the bustard.
After thinking for a long time, the bustard stretched out five fingers.
"Fifty taels?" Li Luobing asked tentatively.
When the bustard heard this number, he slapped the table angrily: "Fifty taels, how is it possible?" I'm talking about five hundred taels, when you've earned enough five hundred taels, when you'll be able to get out of here, or you'll stay here for the rest of your life, and you'll never be able to leave! ”
"Five hundred taels, why don't you grab it?" Although Li Luobing has amnesia, she still has basic common sense, and she also knows that five hundred taels is not a small amount, and she doesn't know how long it will take to save enough silver.
"If you want to say one more word, it will go up another hundred taels." The old bustard said to Li Luobing without any sympathy.
Now that the bustard has such an attitude, Li Luobing also knows that he has completely provoked her, so he can only resign himself to his fate and sit back.
"A few of you keep a good guard at the door for me, you must keep an eye on her every step of the way, don't let her run out again, otherwise I will try to ask you!"
When the old bustard was leaving, he ordered the two servants to stand at the door of Li Luobing's room, and seeing that they were so tightly guarded, Li Luobing had to completely dispel the idea of leaving.
She was confined to this room for two days, and could not go anywhere, until the third day, when the bustard finally came to see her.
