However, Yan Qingqing was in a bit of a dilemma, as this product was exclusively supplied by Jinsheng Pavilion.
Seeing Yan Qingqing's expression, Lin Ning'er asked, "Is there something troubling you, little sister? If it's really not possible, I won't force you."
Yan Qingqing replied frankly, "That's right, this one is specially supplied to Jinsheng Pavilion. If you need it urgently, you can buy it at Jinsheng Pavilion."
If there's no rush, I can specially commission two designs for the girls at Zuishenglou.
Lin Ning'er smiled and said, "It's great that you're willing to go to the trouble, sister. It's okay to wait a little longer. Our business focuses on being unique."
There are over a hundred girls in this Drunken Life Pavilion. Although the number is not large, it can still increase the income of the embroidery workshop. In the early stages of starting a business, Yan Qingqing is not willing to let go of even the smallest opportunities.
After the negotiations were settled, Yan Qingqing was about to return home, but before she even stepped out of the Zuisheng Tower, she heard a commotion at the entrance, mixed with a woman's cries.
Upon seeing this, Lin Ning'er stood up abruptly and said, "Who dares to cause trouble at my Drunken Life Pavilion?"
This kind of situation should be quite common in nightclubs in her previous life or brothels in ancient times. Yan Qingqing originally wanted to leave quietly with Li Xiangjian.
Li Xiangjian pulled her aside and whispered, "Mother, it's someone we know."
Yan Qingqing wondered if she could run into someone she knew here, and sure enough, she did.
Yan Qingqing, who had originally planned to leave, suddenly changed her mind and pulled Li Xiangjian along to watch the excitement.
However, they quietly left the main gate of Zuishenglou and stood outside to watch.
The woman cried and refused to go into the Drunken Life Pavilion, while the man ignored her tantrums and pulled her by the hair, forcibly dragging her inside.
Yan Qingqing felt a headache coming on just looking at how rough the man was doing, and she thought to herself, "What a terrible thing!"
Lin Ning'er walked to the door and looked around for a while, then couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Who dares to act wildly in front of my door? Are they tired of living?"
The man was none other than the lame leper who had been engaged to Li Xinniang. Upon seeing Lin Ning'er, his eyes lit up with a lewd glint as he said, "Mom, I've come to deliver someone to you. How much do you think this woman is worth?"
Lin Ning'er glanced at the woman lying on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, and said coldly, "You cripple, although you are a regular customer of our Drunken Life Pavilion, you should know the rules here. I would never force a woman into prostitution."
The lame man grinned and said, "Of course I know your rules, Mother. Don't worry, this is my own wife. If I sell her, no one can say anything."
Yan Qingqing was shocked. When did Liu become family with the lame man? Indeed, the woman lying on the ground was Liu the widow from Canghe Village.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Back then, when Liu and Li Daniu had such a scandal, Liu's family took her away overnight.
Yan Qingqing had thought that unless Liu had some use, it would be impossible for Liu's family to take so long to bring her back. Liu's only value was that she could remarry.
Lin Ning'er looked at the lame man and sneered, "You lost money gambling again, didn't you? I remember last time you lost so much you didn't even have your pants. What, you're broke this time and have to sell your wife?"
The lame man, grinning with his big yellow teeth, licked his face and said, "That's all in the past, why bring it up?"
Mom, please take a look. My wife is not bad-looking.
"For the sake of our long-standing friendship, you'll have to give me a good price."
Seeing that her tantrums and rolling on the ground were useless, Liu stood up and said, "You bastards, you force good people into prostitution. I'm telling you, I'd rather die than go to a brothel."
If you dare force me into a brothel today, I'll kill myself right here.
After saying that, he glared fiercely at Lin Ning'er.
Lin Ning'er, who was used to working in brothels, had seen all kinds of people. Seeing this, she sneered, "Oh, what a weirdo you are. Your man wants to sell you, and instead of arguing with him, you come to take your anger out on us innocent people."
"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? What blind customer would pay money to suffer like this?"
Lin Ning'er has a very sharp tongue, and she won't hesitate to take action against someone like Liu Shi.
However, this Liu is indeed quite different from before. Although she was a widow before, the Wu family all felt that it was not easy for her to become a widow so soon after getting married, and they never lacked anything for her in terms of food and clothing.
She was never made to do any heavy work at home, which is why she was chosen by Yan Qingqing's family when they were selecting people to do chores. If her hands were covered in calluses, Yuan Huiniang would never have hired her.
When the lame man saw that Lin Ning'er was angry, he was afraid that Zuishenglou would not want her, and more and more people were gathering around.
Feeling humiliated, the lame man stepped forward and slapped Liu across the face, cursing, "You shameless, disreputable woman, did I spend so much on betrothal gifts just to marry a slut like you?"
I used to think you were some kind of chaste and virtuous woman.
Who knew she was not only a widow who had lost her husband, but also had an affair with someone old enough to be your father.
Your family actually dared to accept so much betrothal money from me. With that much money, I could marry a virgin.
It's been half a year, and you haven't even given me a single egg. Besides, ever since I married you, I've lost every bet. You're a jinx, a cursed husband!
When Liu saw that the leper's insults were really unbearable, she stopped pretending to be pitiful and instead said sarcastically, "You call yourself a virgin? You leper, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? It goes without saying that you're lame, but you're incapable of having children and you still blame me for being unable to have children."
Let me tell you, I lost my husband right after I got married, but he was much better than you.
So what if the man I dated later was older than me? At least he was a scholar who had achieved high rank. Look at yourself, you're neither human nor ghost. Just looking at you makes me feel disgusted.
Yan Qingqing thought to herself, "Wow, these two are such a perfect match. They're both really strong."
Enraged that Liu had exposed his shortcomings, the lame man punched and kicked Liu again.
Although Liu fought back, there was still a significant disparity in strength between a woman and a man.
Before long, Liu was beaten to the point of being unable to take it anymore. Just as Lin Ning'er was about to speak up to stop her, Liu shouted at the top of her lungs, "Yan Qingqing, save me! Please save me for the sake of us being from the same village and almost becoming sisters-in-law!"
Yan Qingqing: ……
She never knew that Liu could be so shameless.
Lin Ning'er was also a little surprised. Did this woman actually know Yan Qingqing? Then she had to watch the show.
Seeing that Yan Qingqing ignored her completely, Liu continued, "This cripple is engaged to your Xinniang. He said he would get your Xinniang sooner or later."
Before Yan Qingqing could speak, Li Xiangjian, who was standing to the side, got angry and said, "You cripple, I think you don't want your other leg either."
Yan Qingqing sighed. Her son still couldn't keep his temper in check. But it's good that young people are hot-blooded. Otherwise, it would be abnormal for him to remain indifferent when someone insulted his family!
