The four girls met her once and felt that she looked a bit honest and didn't seem very formidable.

Especially that girl named Winter, she has such an arrogant look on her face. Recently, she was kept by a rich young master for a few days, and she thinks she's so great.

Ma Hehua didn't take her attitude to heart. She yawned and sat down in the courtyard, occasionally wandering to the doorways of the girls' rooms.

Sometimes, even when she hears embarrassing sounds, she remains unfazed.

While she was getting a drink of water in the backyard, she overheard two old women talking, so she went over to listen.

"Our top courtesan is tightly controlled by Madam. Tonight, it seems she's booked the whole place by a young master from the Lin family. Ten silver dollars!"

"Wow! That's some serious money. We could never even dream of it in our lifetime!"

"By the way, tonight a girl took a job with a boss who beat several girls to death. I wonder if she'll survive."

"That Mr. Chen who runs a tofu workshop?"

"Oh, that's him. Today he's wearing a light blue robe, a black hat, and playing with a string of beads in his hand."

Every word of their conversation reached Ma Hehua's ears, and she suddenly ran away as fast as she could.

"Oh no, isn't this man in that room in the spring?" Ma Hehua cursed inwardly. This happened on her first day of work. How was she going to survive in the brothel after this?

They found Spring's room, kicked it open, and lo and behold, the door flew off. Boss Chen, who was choking Spring, was startled.

As I let go and turned around, Ma Hehua lifted me up like a chick.

Because the commotion was so loud, many people started to watch, and even the madam was alerted.

"What's going on?" She pushed through the crowd and went upstairs.

She saw Ma Hehua holding up Boss Chen, and her heart was in her throat.

"Oh my god! Please, put it down, please put it down!" This is a customer!

Ma Hehua's face was cold as she said indifferently, "This beast wanted to kill the girl under my care. Letting him go is not impossible, but we must leave one of his hands behind."

Mr. Chen was nearly driven mad with fear. He came here to spend money, not to die. So what if he tried to kill a woman? Besides, she didn't actually die, did she?

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Ma Hehua didn't say a word. She pulled out a large knife from behind her back and, in an instant, the knife fell to the ground, and Boss Chen's hand fell to the ground.

Bright red blood splattered onto the stairs.

"ah…………"

"Ah... Murder! Murder!"

Just as things were about to descend into chaos, Ah Si shouted, "Quiet! Anyone who's shouting will face consequences!" As he spoke, more than a dozen thugs ran out from downstairs.

The madam was nearly scared to death. How could this woman be so ruthless! She acted without hesitation, and she didn't even blink when she chopped off someone's hand. She's truly a vicious person.

"Ah... Ouch! My hand... My hand..." Boss Chen's face was covered in sweat, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Ma Hehua let go of him, walked to Chuntian's bed, looked at her naked, thought for a moment, covered her with the quilt, and then pinched her philtrum.

And you know what? Ma Hehua's technique was very precise; look, spring has awakened.

She then curled up on the edge of the bed, looking terrified, and cried out, "Please let me go! Please, let me go." This was her instinctive reaction.

"Mother Ye, if you don't give me an explanation today, I'll go to the Si Mansion (the warlord's government office) and sue you." Boss Chen looked at Ma Hehua with a vicious and resentful expression.

The madam remained calm as she swayed closer and said, "Boss Chen, you've ruined several girls in my brothel, and I haven't said anything. This time, it's because our new old woman is ignorant and only just started taking on the girls. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against us. If you make a scene, the lives of several girls in my brothel are also... lives... What do you think?"

As she spoke, she adjusted the silver hairpin in her hair, her eyes full of smiles, showing no sign of panic.

Hearing his words, Ma Hehua, feeling uneasy, interjected, "Oh! You're going to sue me? A beast like you dares to sue me?" Seeing his dark complexion and the many purple marks on his head, she felt amused.

"Alright, alright, stop being stubborn. You won't live past tomorrow, and you won't need this hand anymore. I really chopped it off for nothing." She pouted, somewhat unhappy.

"You...you even cursed me? You bitch!" Boss Chen was furious. The woman's fearless attitude fueled his anger.

"Clap clap clap!"

Ma Hehua slapped him several times across the face with astonishing speed.

Ah Si and Ye Niang's lips twitched. This little sister had a really bad temper; she would start a fight at the slightest disagreement.

The people around her all twitched; this old woman was really fierce!

Mr. Chen was dumbfounded. This...this shrew is outrageous!

“I…I…”

"Clap clap clap!"

"I……"

"Clap clap clap!"

Boss Chen: "……………………"

"Speak up! Why aren't you saying anything? I'm telling you, if you say another word, I'll beat you to death. You'll see if I don't take you down." Ma Hehua stared at him with fierce eyes, looking like a demon, which was very scary.

Boss Chen swallowed hard. Ma Hehua kicked him and said, "Pah! You beast who hits women, you're nothing."

Those around: "……………………"

Ah Si said to the madam: "……………………"

"Get up and get out of the way! What are you standing there for?" Ma Hehua shouted.

Despite the pain, Mr. Chen picked up his severed hand and stumbled downstairs, his eyes filled with resentment.
