Jiang Sishou paused and gave the brothel owner a look with a half-smile.

The brothel owner was holding a huge pile of banknotes, her face flushed with excitement.

People like them don't make clean money. As long as they are paid enough, what rules can't be broken?

The total amount of these banknotes was several hundred taels, which was enough for her to accompany the two of them alone, not to mention that he was just a benefactor who wanted to redeem a little girl.

"Let's make it clear first. Once we leave this room, any disputes between the young lady and the benefactor who redeemed Yu'er will have nothing to do with Yan Chunban."

Jiang Si held his chin with one hand and nodded gently: "This is natural."

"Okay, go ahead and ask, young lady." The brothel owner gathered the banknotes in her arms.

A bare hand reached out and gently pressed the stack of banknotes.

The brothel owner looked as if a piece of her meat had been cut off from her, and she looked at the person opposite her warily.

Jiang Si smiled: "Don't panic yet, Mom always has to tell me what I need before she asks for it, right?"

The brothel owner sneered.

"Mom, do you know the identity of the person who redeemed Yu'er?"

"Young lady, what are you asking? If you go to the market to buy chickens, do you ask what color the hen that lays the eggs is?"

Jiang Si's face shrugged: "I would not pay for a cow even if I went to the market to buy a chicken."

If the brothel owner thought she was a girl and was too embarrassed to say anything, then she was wrong.

She has come here and spent money, who is she shying away from? If she doesn’t get what she wants, she won’t leave!

The brothel owner rolled her eyes out of choking, and couldn't help but complain in her mind: The little girl looks so pretty, how come she is so shameless?

"It doesn't matter if Mom doesn't know who the benefactor is who saved Yu'er's life, but you should know his age and appearance, right? Or you can tell me everything you know."

The brothel owner recalled for a moment and said, "The man was in his thirties, spoke with a Beijing accent, was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and had an ordinary appearance. If you talk about people like this, you will forget them the moment you turn around, but -"

The brothel owner drew out his tone and kept the question in suspense.

Jiang Si didn't rush.

People like the brothel owner are very shrewd. They obviously know that it is impossible to take the money away by saying such nonsense, so there must be valuable information.

The brothel owner chuckled: "I have seen too many people with my eyes. Although that person is dressed decently, I can tell at a glance that he is probably a street stalker. It is not uncommon for such a person to suddenly have money to redeem his lover, but it is a bit interesting to redeem a little girl. However, one hand is for money and the other for goods. I shouldn't be curious and shouldn't ask questions. I won't ask a single word..."

Jiang Si tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingers, his voice slightly disappointed: "So Mom only saw that the man was a street thug and didn't know anything else. Such an ordinary person, I don't think I'll recognize him next time I see him, right?"

The brothel owner shook her handkerchief proudly and said, "Young lady, you underestimate me. I can remember any ordinary person as long as I have dealt with him. However, it will be very difficult for you to find such a person who left the Jinshui River and went into the Hunshui River in the capital."

"It seems that I spent this money in a way that was not wisely planned." Jiang Si said indifferently.

She could see that the brothel owner had more to say.

"Hehe, although that person is ordinary, he actually has a special feature." Seeing that Jiang was not easy to fool, the brothel owner stopped keeping the secret and pointed to his right ear, "There is a big mole on the right earlobe of that person."

Jiang Si secretly memorized this feature and asked, "Anything else? For example, whether that person knew Yu'er before."

The brothel owner shook her head repeatedly: "No."

"How can you be sure, Mom?"

The brothel owner laughed: "When I ordered someone to bring Yu'er here, he asked, 'Is this Yu'er?' If he had known her for a long time, he would definitely not ask that."

Jiang nodded in agreement and asked about Yu'er's situation in Yanchun class.

Of course the brothel owner wouldn't know much about a little girl who has neither outstanding looks nor any special talents.

Jiang Si asked bluntly, "Is there anyone in Yanchun class who is familiar with Yu'er?"

"There is a little girl named Yan Zi who serves our top prostitute together with her." The brothel owner was very decisive and quickly called Yan Zi over.

The little girl who often hangs out in places like this didn't show any sign of stage fright at all. After she walked in, her eyes moved quickly towards Jiang Si.

Jiang Si had a straight back and a gentle face. In the eyes of the little girl, he was a rare handsome boy.

"I wonder what Mom wants to talk to Yan Zi about?"

"This young man has something to ask you. Just tell him everything you know." The brothel owner was quite interesting. After giving Yan Zi instructions, she turned around and walked into the inner room.

Although the inner room and the small hall were separated by only a row of screens, Yan Zi suddenly felt much more relaxed, and the look she gave towards Jiang Si became bolder.

Jiang Si smiled gently: "I heard from mom that you and Yu'er are good sisters."

Yan Zi was startled, and a hint of displeasure flashed across her eyes.

Why is it Yu'er again?

She was also a maid serving the top girl. She came earlier than Yu'er, but Yu'er was abducted by someone else.

Redemption, this is what they dream of.

If it were the top-notch prostitutes on the pleasure boats, they would be fine, as they were used to seeing wealthy men who spent a lot of money and looked down on ordinary men. But for a mediocre pleasure boat like the Yanchunban, let alone them, even the prostitutes would hope to find a good man and leave this filthy place.

Yu'er's luck is so good, she was redeemed not long ago, and now there is such a handsome man who is thinking about her.

This is so unfair.

"You two have been together for such a long time. Have you ever heard Yuer talk about her family?"

Yan Zi smiled and covered her mouth: "People like us, who has the nerve to always mention our family? It's not a glorious thing to let people know that a girl from our family works on a flower boat."

"Not in private either?" Jiang Si flipped his hand, and a pair of golden earrings fell into Yan Zi's palm.

Yan Zi quickly glanced at the screen, put away the earrings, and started talking more.

It is pleasing to the eye to have a good-looking man, but the gold pendant is the most practical.

Jiang Si listened silently and caught some information: for example, Yu'er's family came from other places, her parents died on the way, and she was sold by her brother before she found a place to stay. For example, her brother was a gambler, and even after selling her, she still came to ask for money from time to time, and she dared not refuse to give it, for fear that her sister would be wronged by her brother...

After Yan Zi had taken a breath, Jiang Si asked, "So Yu Er has a younger sister. How old is she? Where did she and her brother live?"

Yan Zi shook her head: "Yu Er didn't mention these."

Jiang Si closed his eyes and thought.

Since Yu'er's family went to Beijing along the river, and they sold her to a flower boat on the Jinshui River because they were short of money, and her brother came to ask for money from time to time, can we infer that Yu'er's brother's whereabouts should be near the Jinshui River?

Seeing that he could not get any more information out of her, Jiang Si said goodbye to the brothel owner.

The brothel owner got the money but was afraid of getting into trouble, so she wanted to send the giant Buddha away as soon as possible, so she personally sent Jiang Si back to the hall.

Under the bright lights, Jiang Si smiled and said, "Since we are here, we must have a cup of tea with the top star in the team."
