Chapter 115 Pregnancy (2)
After the woman left, Yanmei hesitated. Seeing that the young man hadn't moved, she whispered, "Master..." As soon as she said that, she felt deeply humiliated. Back in the Shen residence, they had been the second daughter's personal servants. Not only in Caiyun Garden, but throughout the Shen residence, the servants were always respectful to them. Now, they were being slept with and ridden by thousands of men, and being raped by strangers.
And all this was just caused by the defeated Ren Wanyun. It was Ren Wanyun who threw them into this low-class brothel. The friendship between master and servant of more than ten years was destroyed in an instant, and they were worse than enemies.
"Do you want to leave here?" the young man suddenly asked.
Yanmei and Shuibi were stunned for a moment, then came to their senses. Shuibi was still a little suspicious, but Yanmei knelt down excitedly and said, "If you can take us out, I am willing to serve you and repay you with my life."
For Yanmei, staying here would be worse than death, so she would rather be with a man. At least it is better than this miserable life with no hope of escape.
Shuibi was reminded by Yanmei's words and knelt down as well: "Please, Master, save our lives! Master... Master, we will do anything you ask us to do!"
Upon hearing this, the young man nearly choked on his tea and turned away uncomfortably. This man was none other than Mo Qing, the outer courtyard guard of the Shen residence. He had come to the Sanfu troupe today on Shen Miao's orders. While he was puzzled as to how a young woman like Shen Miao could know so much about the brothels in the capital, he had important business to attend to today, so despite the awkwardness, he still complied.
"I can buy your indentures, and you don't have to follow me. I can set you free," he said.
Upon hearing this, Yanmei and Shuibi stared at Mo Qing in disbelief. They couldn't understand why such a person would exist. The men who came here were naturally seeking pleasure. The young man before them didn't look like someone who would be doing hard labor. Yanmei, more alert, asked, "Master, what does your servant want us to do?"
"Simple," Mo Qing said. "I heard that you two were once the personal maids of the second daughter of the general's mansion. How did you end up in such a situation?"
Shuibi bit her lip and said bitterly, "We were expelled from the Shen Mansion because we made a mistake. However, we didn't do anything wrong. We were just slaves. We had to do whatever the master said."
Until now, Shuibi hadn't revealed the key to this, presumably because she still had some feelings for the Second House. Mo Qing asked, "Are you hateful then?"
The two were silent.
Hate? Of course they did. It would have been fine if they had just given her a cup of poisoned wine to put an end to it, but they had chosen to use such methods, making her live a life worse than death, like a walking corpse. But what was their fault? No one knew what happened that night, and Shen Qing's inexplicable disappearance was their fault. Although they were heartbroken that their young lady had been in trouble, only a saint would be so reckless as to put all the blame on the two of them.
"I think you hate it too. Yanmei, I heard that you have a sister who works as a second-class maid in the second courtyard of the Shen family. Shuibi, you are popular in the Shen family, and there are many sisters around you."
Yanmei and Shuibi were shocked. This person had actually explained their origins in detail. Indeed, when Yanmei and Shuibi were brought into the Shen Mansion, they were told they were orphans, a deliberate cover-up to ensure they were chosen. Yanmei's biological sister was a second-class maid in Ren Wanyun's courtyard. Shuibi, because of her lively personality, was a familiar figure in Caiyun Garden.
"There is no such thing as a free deal in this world. I will take you away, and you will find a way to tell me the news about the second branch of the Shen Mansion."
