Chapter 355 - Not That Much of a Money Lover
After that, the two of them blatantly said a few obscene words to each other, and the brothel owner sent Doctor Xu away.
Song Yunli couldn't help but feel a little curious. These two people seemed to be in love with each other, so why weren't they together?
The brothel owner at the door of Linxian Pavilion stuffed several large bags of food into Doctor Xu's hands, then chattered on for a long time before turning around and leaving, swinging her handkerchief, but her steps were no longer as brisk as before.
Doctor Xu looked at the things in his hand with a happy smile on his face. In fact, she was not as greedy for money as she said, otherwise she would not have given these things to him.
Looking at the figure walking further and further away, the smile on the madam's lips gradually faded. After all, she was the one who let him down in this life. How could a woman like her who was so dirty from soul to body drag him down and implicate him? It was actually quite good the way it was now.
"Sister Hua, my sister asked me to give you these five gold leaves. She said she was not feeling well and wanted to take five days off." Xing'er happily ran to the brothel owner and raised the gold leaves in her hand.
The brothel owner grabbed the gold leaf and said, "Oh my goodness! How could Miss Feng Bai have gold leaves on her? Why didn't she find out earlier? Isn't this another loss of windfall? She was so careless!"
"Sister Hua? I wonder if you have agreed?" Xing'er asked again in a raised voice.
How could she not agree to the contract written in black and white? Ten thousand taels of silver a day, this gold leaf is definitely enough. If she had known earlier, she would have raised the amount of silver she needed to earn every day. She really regretted it.
"Okay. By the way, Xing'er, go tell the kitchen to pick out the best food to send to your daughter every day. Don't let the baby in her belly starve." After she finished speaking, she kissed the gold leaf in her hand hard, then left shaking her waist.
The next morning, Song Yunli wanted to have a good sleep, but she heard a sudden commotion in the street through the paper window, and even the neighing of war horses. She was startled and quickly woke up Xing'er who was lying on the couch.
"Sister, didn't you want to take a long nap? Why did you get up so early?" Xing'er asked in confusion, rubbing her eyes. She was obviously about to lie down again, so Song Yunli couldn't help but shake her a few more times.
"Xing'er, wake up quickly. It looks like a war is about to break out outside. We have to go check it out."
After hearing what Song Yunli said, Xing'er no longer had any desire to sleep. She jumped up from the couch and almost made Song Yunli fall. Then she ran to the window, opened the paper window, looked out, and her eyes widened instantly.
On the spacious streets, neatly arranged teams of people were marching forward slowly. Although it was already a warm spring day, the spears and swords in those people's hands were flashing a frightening cold light.
Song Yunli walked over and stood behind Xing'er, looking out the window unconsciously. Suspicion immediately arose in her heart. This army was neither from Dongchu nor from Chu Nan and Nan Yue, so how could they attack here?
"Sister, they don't look like they want to start a war." Xing'er leaned against the window frame and sighed softly, staring at the soldiers who were still marching in an orderly manner.
"Xing'er, help me prepare the veil and hair girdle. It's time for us to go out for a walk." After saying that, Song Yunli walked to the bed and started putting on her clothes.
Xing'er was very surprised but didn't say anything. She went to the box and started searching quickly.
In the hall, neither the patrons nor the girls were in the mood to continue having fun. They all hid at the door and looked out, but no one dared to go out, for fear that the soldiers would capture them at will if they were unhappy.
