Chapter 107
Someone had brought their new concubine along, and one of them said, "I was wondering why you brought your daughter along too."
The man laughed and said, "Stop making fun of me."
He brought it this time just to show off, and he felt even more proud when hearing people say that.
The girl looked about eighteen or nineteen, her head lowered, her smile timid. She wore a plain white cheongsam, but also accessorized with a set of white diamond earrings, a necklace, a ring, and a brooch. She was a charming, adorable, and charming young girl.
After chatting for a while, the person sitting next to Lao Yi laughed and said, "Old Xu is really something. He specially brought it here to show off. It seems he really likes it and even brought it home. I wonder how long it will remain fresh."
Lao Yi said, "He doesn't mind the trouble."
"That's true. It'll be a bit troublesome to get rid of her in the future. After all, she's already passed the Minglu. Old Xu is really like that. He only likes girls in their teens. He won't be interested in girls over 20." He looked over there again and said, "But this little girl is really like that. No wonder he brought her home."
Lao Yi thought that she was lovable, but lacked generosity and was still petty and delicate.
It's rare for a group of them to have no one outside, and it's even rarer to bring someone like this out in the open. Old Xu was incredibly pleased with himself this time, wanting to show off to the others. While everyone thought it was a good thing, most also felt he was getting carried away. He wasn't planning on being a proper second wife; it would eventually break up, and it seemed like he'd never seen the world. Most people, while praising him, thought to themselves, "Not as good as my old one..." or "Not as good as my current one..."
Old Xu brought his concubine with him, but he told them not to go downstairs to have fun with them. The others went to the back to drink and order some money.
Among the courtesans called in this time was a recently popular, beautiful Yang Fei-type figure. People flattered her and specifically asked her to accompany Lao Yi.
She put her arms around him, flattered him graciously, and then toasted him with both hands. Old Yi drank one glass, and she poured a second. According to their local custom, they had to toast three times in a row.
Lao Yi shook his hand to indicate that he couldn't drink anymore.
The man said, "This officer cannot drink too much. I just want to understand your intention."
The waiter smiled and put down the wine.
Halfway through the drink, someone came over and said, "I specifically asked you to prepare a few little stars today. Let's try it out later."
Lao Yi smiled and said, "I have something to do later, you guys go play."
"You should relax sometimes."
The courtesan beside him laughed and said, "This officer's lover is probably a quiet person."
The man laughed and said, "How do you know?"
The waiter smiled and said, "The scent of perfume on your body is light and fresh."
Old Yi sniffed and discovered a faint scent of jasmine on himself. It wasn't from the room, it was the scent of her perfume.
I haven't seen her for two days, but why do I still smell like her? She must have showered. How strange!
Wang Jiazhi liked to wear this kind of perfume; its scent was elegant and chilly. It felt even more chilly when the room was cold. He imagined the scent of the Cold Fragrance Pills was similar to this: a slightly tipsy, cool feeling, like being drunk in a cold night breeze, feeling completely intoxicated.
He wondered what the little cat was doing at home. It was too much for her to deal with those bored wives of officials. He also remembered her aggrieved look when she lost at mahjong.
