But this is the first time that she has stayed out all night. Today, Granny Zhao has searched all the places Zheng Yutang could have gone and might have gone, but there is still no news...
[Unexpectedly, the Lin family also cares about Zheng Yutang.]
[That's true. After all, the Second Miss is a piece of Lin's own flesh and blood, so naturally Lin cares about her a lot.]
[Nonsense, Aunt Lin only saw Zheng Yutang as a tool for making money, a cash cow.]
Suddenly, Lin thought of many rumors about the capital, and an inexplicable sense of fear gripped her like an invisible hand.
She followed Granny Zhao and searched outside for a while, but to no avail. In the end, Lin Shi Yi Ran returned to Zheng Tian Xiang Fang in a daze.
Business is bad now. Looking at the deserted state of the shop, Lin turned around and looked at the backyard.
That damned Lin Shoucai, whether he's really sick or not, is now staying indoors. She wanted to talk to Lin Shoucai about Zheng Yutang, but after taking only two steps, Lin stopped.
Forget it, why bother looking for him?
Lin Shoucai was still struggling to make ends meet when a profound sense of despair, of being abandoned by everyone and facing utter despair, enveloped him like a dark cloud. Now, his daughter had mysteriously disappeared, and his younger brother had inexplicably fallen ill.
With business so bad, what is she going to do all by herself?
At this moment, in the woodshed of a brothel called "Baihualou" in Pingkangfang, Zheng Yutang slowly opened her eyes. What exactly happened last night?
At this moment, Zheng Yutang couldn't recall anything. She only remembered that she was drinking with Zhou Gongzi and the others, and then... right, she got drunk. At that time, her head was throbbing, and then these men took her away. As for where they took her and what happened, Zheng Yutang couldn't remember anything at all.
Okay, welcome to northern Myanmar. Let's see if the kidneys are still there!
Does getting a kidney scalp hurt?
Zheng Yutang sat up; her throat was terribly dry, and she wanted to drink water. She opened her eyes groggily and looked around; she could almost hear footsteps outside.
She stared at everything in front of her and was immediately terrified. What she saw was the interior of a dilapidated house, and the furnishings were filthy. "Help! Help! Brother Zhou, Brother, help!"
Zheng Yutang screamed. She was lying on a straw that smelled musty. She shouted, but no one paid any attention to her. At that moment, Zheng Yutang prepared to rush out.
But she soon discovered that her ankles were bound tightly with a hemp rope, like a dog leash, and Zheng Yutang immediately began to sob.
"Help!"
[Help! Is this a place we can leave?]
[Zheng Yutang: Who am I? What am I doing? Where am I?]
"Where am I?!"
Zheng Yutang muttered to herself, "No, I have to leave here, and I also have to figure out how I got here in such a daze, and what else I'm after."
Zheng Yutang screamed in terror, but no one came near. Then she began to recall the events of the previous night in detail, and the memories gradually became clearer before her eyes.
Young Master Zhou and the group of men were urging him to drink, and then he got drunk. It seemed that he was taken somewhere by the group, and then Zheng Yutang's mind went blank and she couldn't remember anything else.
Just as Zheng Yutang was shouting, the door to the room creaked open and was roughly pushed open. Zheng Yutang then saw a heavily made-up woman with a thick layer of white powder on her face walk in.
"Oh, what are you still shouting about?" The middle-aged woman swayed her hips as she walked in and stood opposite Zheng Yutang, who stared at the ugly madam.
At this moment, behind the madam were two burly pimps. The two men had fierce eyes and were staring at Zheng Yutang, which made Zheng Yutang tremble.
"You're awake?" The madam reached out and deftly lifted Zheng Yutang's chin to examine her. "She's not exactly a beauty, but she can still make money here."
[Oh dear, karma has caught up with her; Zheng Yutang is really finished this time.]
[A brothel, oh heavens.]
[Zheng Yutang: This is really strange. I was with Young Master Zhou, how did I end up here in such a confused state?]
The madam's eyes were very discerning; she was looking at Zheng Yutang, but it was also as if she were sizing up a commodity waiting to be sold.
"It's good that you're awake. From today onwards, you are my wife in the 'Hundred Flowers Pavilion'. Remember, I don't care who you were before. From today onwards, someone will train you."
"Baihua Tower?" Seeing that Zheng Yutang was still confused, the madam chuckled, "Yes, miss, to put it bluntly, this is a brothel, a place for men to have fun."
Zheng Yutang's vision went black, and she almost fainted. What on earth happened last night? How did she end up being sold to this godforsaken place?
Seeing that Zheng Yutang was still half asleep, the madam slapped her across the face, and Zheng Yutang immediately covered her face.
The madam lowered her voice and warned in a sinister tone, "Remember, you're here to have your own things to do. Learn the rules for me, serve the men well, and you'll be living the high life in the future."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yutang felt weak in the knees and was completely stunned, as if struck by lightning.
At that moment, without the madam needing to say anything more, she understood her situation and was enveloped by immense fear.
Zheng Yutang screamed at the top of her lungs, "Who are you? Let me leave here! No! No! Help! Let me out!"
"Oh, get out! If you come in here, you'll die here." The madam sneered. Zheng Yutang explained, "I'm from a good family. I'm the second young lady of the Minister's mansion. You can't do this. You'll go to jail."
The madam looked at Zheng Yutang as if she were watching a joke. Zheng Yutang raised her voice, "Where is Brother Zhou? I want to see Young Master Zhou!"
"You? The young lady of the Minister's mansion?" Madam Liu laughed so hard she was shaking, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. "Don't you even know what kind of person you are? Someone like you is starting to pretend to be from the Minister's mansion? This is outrageous! I've seen it all, and I know the hearts of you women."
The madam poked Zheng Yutang's head hard, giving her a stern warning.
“Come here, don’t tell me you’re the second young lady of the Minister’s mansion. Even if you were the daughter of the Heavenly King himself, you’d still have to serve me! Young Master Zhou? What Young Master Zhou? Zhou the Skinflint has already sold you to me.”
Is Zheng Yutang really that unlucky?
[This shows how dangerous it is to make friends casually.]
[This is worse than getting your kidneys cut.]
