Fengyuelou and He Xiaoniangzi's business has been running for half a month. In this half month, in addition to Plum Blossom Cream, He Xiaoniangzi's Huaxuetang has brought in all the beauty creams from Fengyuelou. They have been sought after by ladies and young women from various counties, and Plum Blossom Cream is in short supply.
Because this stuff isn't just for adults, and the border town is windy with children who love excitement, they run around outside every day. After a while, their faces become red and sore. This plum blossom ointment works wonders for children too; the young masters and ladies don't feel any pain on their faces and play even more happily, forgetting all about home.
The plum blossom ointment bottle was also specially customized by Madam He, with the words "Fengyuelou" engraved inside, making it difficult for outsiders to deceive her.
Lately, she's been going to the city a lot, so He Qingzhu is planning to buy a shop there and open Huaxuetang in the city.
—Border Town Government Office
"This was sent by my men; I heard it's excellent for women's skin," a languid voice rang out as the shirtless man spoke to the woman in his arms.
The woman in his arms was Fanghua, the most beautiful courtesan of Fanghua Pavilion.
The woman slipped out of his arms, wrapped her delicate arms around the man's waist, and whispered softly in his ear.
"Over the years, Grandpa has been the best to me."
Hahahaha
The man picked up the wine jug, pressed Fanghua down beside his legs, pried open her mouth, and poured the wine into her mouth.
Fanghua was used to his unpredictable temper. She tried to open her throat and let the wine flow down her throat so that she wouldn't choke too badly. The woman's breathing became rapid, and she coughed weakly twice.
The man then ripped off her outer garment, revealing her back covered in red welts. He opened the ointment, scooped out a dollop, rubbed it in his hand, and applied it directly to her back.
Fanghua is exactly twenty years old this year, making her the oldest courtesan in Fanghua Pavilion, and also the one who has lived the longest.
Veins bulged on her forehead, and there were bloodshot veins in the whites of her eyes. She bit her lip tightly, only letting out a couple of soft moans.
"Does Grandpa still love you?" the man asked.
Fanghua's forehead was covered in sweat, and she said weakly.
"Grandpa, you love me the most."
Wei Ci never expected that in this godforsaken place, there would be such a beauty, so sensible and tolerant.
Ever since he broke his leg, he has grown to enjoy seeing people kneeling and begging for mercy, like this kind of woman, the kind of woman who would play with you for money and even pay you to stay. She should be crying and begging him to spare her life.
This feeling of having the power of life and death over others
So wonderful
Wei Ci took a puff of the Five Stone Powder on the table, then pressed Fanghua down beneath him. No one noticed the two lines of clear tears streaming down the face of the submissive young woman.
afterwards
Wei Ci picked up the bottle of plum blossom ointment and looked at it in the sunlight.
"This bottle is quite well-made; it's rather exquisite."
Then he noticed a few words inside the bottle.
"Fengyue Tower, doesn't sound like a nice place, huh?" Wei Ci glanced at Fanghua.
The young lady immediately knelt down and replied.
"It's...it's a brothel from the same place as mine."
"A brothel?"
Fanghua's hands trembled slightly, then she dug her fingernails into her palm.
"right"
"What are the girls like there? Beautiful ones indeed."
"A bunch of ordinary mortals, don't you want to pamper me anymore?"
The beautiful woman's eyes darted around, pleading for a man's favor.
Wei Ci was very susceptible to this tactic; he was easily swayed by others' displays of weakness.
"It hurts, it only hurts you," he said, then pulled the woman on the ground into his arms.
Fanghua thought about the madam's words
Send her here
It's about dragging the brothel into this mess.
But just now, Fanghua didn't know why, she was thinking about Chunying's bright smile and the little potato that they carried when they went out, and who would sweetly call her "sister".
She suddenly didn't want to do it anymore.
Fanghua always knew what kind of person she was; she would stop at nothing to achieve her goals.
dirty
dark
She was jealous of Chunying, and jealous of all the girls at Fengyuelou, but there was no need to let them end up with Wei Ci.
That little potato, her sisters aren't here anymore, she'll probably sit on the ground and cry.
The young woman recalled the first time she saw Huo Xiaolong; it was this summer, when her mother had finally let her out for a stroll, followed by two thugs.
They bumped right into Chunying Liuxu and her group.
Enemies meet on a narrow road
Courtesan against Courtesan
Fanghua's lips curled slightly, her words implying that Chunying and the others were hypocritical and pretending to be virtuous.
Huo Xiaolong was blocked by what Chunying was carrying.
I didn't see her at first.
When Chunying put the things on the ground, ready to have a proper argument with her...
A little girl with pigtails appeared.
She called out sweetly.
Hello, sister.
Fanghua felt helpless when she called out "sister".
She couldn't hear what the people around her were saying for a moment; all she could hear was noise and chaos.
Before the Xiongnu came to massacre the village, she also had a younger sister, the same age as the little girl in front of her, who would sweetly call her "older sister."
In that instant, she seemed like a stray dog, fleeing in a sorry state from Chunying and her group's sight.
Little Tuanzi didn't hear what Fanghua said; at that time, she was nestled next to her sister Ping'er, watching the popsicles.
My thoughts were all drawn away
Although Fanghua didn't expose the brothel, there were plenty of people in the government office who wanted to rise to the top in one step. As long as she caught the eye of this lord from the capital, she could accompany him when he returned to the capital.
Wei Ci's fondness for women is common knowledge throughout the government; the most beautiful girls in the border town are all at the pleasure quarters.
The name had already reached Wei Ci's ears, and he dismissed Fang Hua's explanation as mere jealousy between women.
"Grandpa will take you back to our hometown for a visit in a few days."
"Um?"
Fanghua asked in confusion
"I'll take you back to Pingyang County, so you can have some fun in front of those girls."
