"This is what happened, so he is now a walking five thousand taels of silver." Bai Miaoke explained today's experience to Lu Yu, but cleverly omitted the question of why she knew someone from the Eagle Claw Gang.
Lu Yu nodded and said nothing.
Although the imperial court and the various gangs in the underworld mostly kept to themselves, he had heard of several well-known organizations, such as the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the Eagle Claw Gang.
They are all well-known killer organizations that are paid to do the job, and are famous for their clean and efficient work.
Knowing that the assassin had chased him here, Lu Yu had no expression on his face and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Bai Miaoke was keenly aware of his gradually cooling down mood, and spoke to comfort him: "It's okay, I have tied up their young leader, he should not act rashly in the short term."
Lu Yu nodded: "We need to contact Rong Qing as soon as possible."
Bai Miaoke nodded in agreement, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Did you go to the street to paint this morning?"
"Well, I'll give it to you." Lu Yu said as he took out a whip from his sleeve. It was the one that Bai Miaoke had taken a fancy to that day.
She took it with joy and made a whip flower. The whip, which was fearless of swords and guns, spun lightly and flexibly in the air and finally wrapped around Bai Miaoke's wrist.
She touched the new whip from beginning to end, raised the corners of her lips with satisfaction and said to Lu Yu: "Thank you, husband!"
After saying that, she tiptoed and kissed the man on the cheek.
The young gang leader, whose hands and feet were tied up again and whose mouth was gagged, whimpered and could not bear to look.
Bai Miaoke just remembered that there was someone else in the room. She couldn't let go of the new whip and raised her hand to wrap the person with the whip and drag him in front of her.
She threatened sinisterly, "You'd better behave yourself. My husband is not someone you can easily mess with!"
The young leader of the Cai gang looked at the whip that was wrapped around him and suddenly remembered something. His expression became excited and frightened, as if he was really frightened by Bai Miaoke's words.
After being released, he huddled in a corner like a quail and didn't cause any trouble again.
In the next few days, Lu Yu no longer went to the streets to sell paintings, but began to contact his subordinates.
Bai Miaoke went to the mountain to hunt two chickens and came back. She also went to visit the family where she stayed at the beginning. She had always been thinking about the little girl named Erya, so she brought her some books and secretly left a few taels of silver for her.
Lu Yu earned a lot of money in just two days of painting. After buying her the whip, there was some left, which was enough for their daily expenses, so she wanted to thank that kind family.
After delivering the silver, Lu Yu also hunted the chicken and hung it on the roof of the yard, waiting for the Saker Falcon to find it.
He sat in the yard and washed the clothes that Bai Miaoke had soiled while hunting. There was only some dirt on them, but the prime minister, who was a bit of a germaphobe, rubbed them in his hands for a long time before he was done.
Xiaoyu was originally responsible for washing clothes, but Bai Miaoke saw that the two children were smart, so she sent them both to the school in the town.
So all the chores at home fell on the Prime Minister. It was not that Bai Miao did not want to work, but Lu Yu took care of all the laundry and cooking. Every day she would either go to the street to play with cats and dogs, and see if Rong Qing had come; or she would go hunting in the mountains to see if there was any new situation in Niujia Village where she had stayed before.
After two days of dull days, Bai Miaoke made a new friend - Yun Niang, the young owner of the restaurant.
Bai Miaoke and Yun Niang had a very pleasant conversation when they met for the first time. During the past two days when they had nothing to do, their relationship took a step further.
Bai Miaoke found that Yunniang was also a wonderful person. Her father had passed away a few years ago, leaving her alone to support the store. At first, she was often harassed by the ruffians in the town. She relied on two kitchen knives and her eloquent mouth to scold and beat away those who wanted to bully her.
He also turned his family's small restaurant into the only restaurant in town.
This is not the thing that Bai Miaoke admires most about her. The main reason why Bai Miaoke is on good terms with her is that Yun Niang has a very open mind. She is rich and has free time now, and not only does she want to find a son-in-law, she even has several poor but good-looking men at home.
After the two got to know each other, she invited Bai Miaoke to her home.
The mansion, which is considered one of the best in the town, is elegantly and exquisitely decorated, with several large and small gardens. Bai Miaoke followed Yun Niang as she walked and looked at the garden, nodding approvingly, "Your garden is well decorated."
Yunniang smiled and said, "Miss Bai, you are too kind. The best is yet to come."
Bai Miaoke asked curiously: "Anything else good?"
Yunniang smiled and said nothing, just led the person into the backyard.
There is a water pavilion in the backyard, covered with a gauze curtain. There are a few small boats floating on the water. A breeze blows, bringing a faint fragrance.
Yunniang clapped her hands and said, "I'm back."
Then several men came out from the side of the water pavilion.
The leader was dressed in red, with bright eyes, white teeth, and a pair of upturned fox eyes, looking straight over here.
"Xia Lang, come quickly. I brought my friends back." Yun Niang waved at him.
Then, behind the man in red walked out a man in a black suit, with sharp eyebrows and clear edges.
Bai Miaoke whispered: "This guy looks like he knows some Kung Fu."
Yunniang smiled and introduced: "Yes, Qiulang was originally a thug, and I rescued him after he was injured."
While they were talking, another man in a green robe trotted out. His hair was tied into a high ponytail. He looked very young and waved at them from a distance.
Yunniang waved back at him and introduced, "This is Chunlang, the youngest one."
"He looks like he's not even twenty yet?" Bai Miaoke asked, somewhat curious whether this was also the man Yun Niang raised.
As if she understood Bai Miaoke's doubts, Yun Niang covered her mouth and laughed, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "Sister, you don't understand. The younger you are, the more powerful you are~"
Bai Miaoke really didn't understand this matter, so she just memorized this new knowledge point.
Then a handsome man in white clothes as white as snow and long flowing hair came out from the other end. He walked gracefully, as if he was a banished immortal who had descended to earth from this world.
"Who is this?" Bai Miaoke asked with interest. This person's appearance and temperament are somewhat similar to Lu Yu, but of course his face is still not as good.
"This is Dong Lang, the young man I bought from the building. He's handsome." It can be seen that Yun Niang likes him very much.
But after she finished speaking, she added in a low voice: "It's still not comparable to your son-in-law."
Bai Miaoke felt inexplicably guilty, so she touched her nose and didn't respond.
Four people walked closer, stood in a row, and looked at Bai Miaoke vaguely.
"This is my friend Miss Bai, please treat her well." Yunniang touched everyone's hands one by one. When it was Donglang in white's turn, she touched his handsome face and said, "Play a song to liven up the atmosphere."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Miaoke to sit on the recliner beside him. There was a fresh fruit plate on the small table next to him.
Four men with different styles took their seats in the pavilion of the waterside pavilion.
"What song does Miss Bai want to listen to?" Yun Niang asked.
"Just play the one you are best at." Bai Miaoke didn't know what kind of music was popular in Jiangnan, but when she was in the capital, she went to brothels to listen to music many times, and she had seen many top courtesans on the market.
But this was the first time she had seen such a performance.
The man in white sat by the lake and played the piano. As the clear sound of the piano like flowing water, the man in red danced gracefully, like a butterfly breaking free from a cage, or a cluster of burning flames.
Just when Bai Miaoke was attracted by the dance, the man in black beside her drew his sword, made a sword flower with unstoppable force, and began to dance with the sword to the sound of the piano. Each move was full of power and beauty, which made Bai Miaoke's eyes light up.
At this time, the young man in blue started to sing a Jiangnan folk song. His voice was completely different from the way he spoke. The blue-clothed man sang in the soft Wu dialect, which made people feel itchy.
The four of them can be said to have their own strengths and abilities. Bai Miaoke couldn't help but applaud and praise: "Great! Really great!"
Yunniang picked up the wine cup on the table and poured a glass for Bai Miaoke, then picked up the glass in front of her and drank it all, saying, "That's how a woman should be. Being comfortable is more important than anything else."
Bai Miaoke also picked up the wine glass and drank it all. It was sweet fruit wine. She nodded in agreement: "Why bother about other people's opinions? If you ask me, I'm afraid the princess won't enjoy it as much as you do."
"Do you really think so?" Yunniang asked.
"Yes, you see, you have money to spend, you don't have to worry about other people's faces, and you have such a beautiful woman by your side." Bai Miaoke showed an envious look.
"But people outside say that I am not a woman of virtue and that I am immoral."
Hearing her words, Bai Miaoke laughed, and Yunniang also laughed as she spoke. The two looked at each other and clinked their glasses tacitly.
"It's just self-consolation made up by those people who can't get what they want and are jealous. Why take it to heart?" Bai Miaoke said casually as she enjoyed the performance in the pavilion.
Although her tone was casual, Yunniang, who was very good at observing people's words and expressions, could see that she really thought so and couldn't help but smile.
The two watched the performance, ate fruit, drank fruit wine, and chatted happily. Half an hour had passed without them noticing.
The piano music ended and Yunniang waved for a few people to come over.
The man in red sat directly and consciously between the two of them, the young man in green snuggled into Yun Niang's arms and acted coquettishly, the man in white sat upright on the chair opposite the two of them, and the man in black stood aside, watching with his arms folded, without moving.
Yunniang pulled the man in green away a little and said angrily, "Why don't you take care of the guests first?"
After that, he turned around and asked Bai Miaoke: "Which one do you like, sister?"
"Everyone has his own strengths~" It's hard not to think of something wrong with this tone.
Bai Miaoke uttered a short "Oh" and said, "Not very good."
It was the first time she faced such a situation. She had the desire but not the courage to do it before, but this time it was delivered right in front of her.
"Are you willing to serve Miss Bai?" Yun Niang asked several people.
Bai Miaoke was also a stunning beauty, so how could everyone be unwilling? Except for the young man who was still curled up in Yun Niang's arms, the other three men all nodded, either lightly or heavily.
"This..." It was delivered right in front of her, and Bai Miaoke couldn't think of any reason to refuse. In addition, she had just drunk some wine, and she felt a little dizzy.
I couldn't help but cast my gaze at several men, comparing them secretly in my heart.
She still felt that the man in white sitting next to her was somewhat familiar. Through his drunken eyes, his face gradually turned into Lu Yu's appearance, but his eyes had a little more reluctance to accept, which immediately piqued Bai Miaoke's interest.
She stared at the man in white, as if trying to confirm whether he was Lu Yu.
Little did she know that Yunniang thought her expression meant she had made her choice. She smiled and nodded to the man.
The man in white then stood up and walked towards Bai Miaoke, sat down beside her, and wanted to pull her into his arms.
An uninvited guest suddenly rushed in at the door.
