The madam was shocked and felt the force on her wrist, and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Just now she thought that this girl was just strong and would definitely not be able to defeat her if she encountered real swords and guns. Who knew...
Her heart suddenly became nervous and uneasy.
"No! Miss, I was just joking... Yes! Just a joke!" The madam rolled her eyes and reluctantly found an excuse.
"Oh?" Lu Yunxi snatched the dagger, fiddled with it lazily, and watched the dagger glow faintly in the candlelight.
She smiled gently, and a silver light flashed.
Before the madam saw the other party's attack, a strand of hair had fallen off her forehead when she came to her senses.
Thinking about how her head was almost cut off just now, she was so scared that sweat instantly soaked her back.
She didn't dare to cause any more trouble. She was so scared that she begged for mercy: "Master, please spare my life! I will treat the girls well. Don't worry, I promise not to hurt them, nor will I sell them for money!"
The madam's face turned pale with fear, but she was secretly resentful in her heart.
She didn't dare to hate Lu Yunxi, but she hated the men who sold Lu Yunxi to her.
I originally thought that what I bought was a money tree. Who knows if it is a money tree or not, but this is definitely a female bandit!
These damn guys! They actually sold such a horrible woman to me! I hope they don't get caught! Otherwise, I will definitely make them pay!
Lu Yunxi raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure you will treat us poor little ones well in the future?"
The madam smiled apologetically: “Yes!” Still pitiful?! Who is pitiful?
Lu Yunxi: "I've been working for so long, why haven't I seen any monthly salary? Don't the other girls get any either?"
Madam: "There will be. I... forgot to give it to you before. I'm sorry!"
“…”
The girls in Fengyue Tower suddenly discovered that the madam had changed.
For the girls of the rank of Oiran and No.12, the madam's concern is superficial, but in reality it is not the case at all.
Before this, a courtesan had collected enough money to redeem herself. The originally agreed amount of 10,000 taels of silver was turned into 10,000 taels of gold.
How could an ordinary person come up with so much money?! Even a prince wouldn't be able to come up with this much money so easily!
Ever since the incident with the courtesan, everyone knew that the so-called redemption was just talk.
If you want to leave Fengyue Tower, you must find someone powerful and influential who Fengyue Tower cannot afford to offend, and he must be willing to spend a large sum of money to take you away. Only in this way can you truly leave.
As for the girls of lower status, they were afraid of being sold by the madams.
But this time, after the madam woke up, she suddenly gave up on selling the girls and even started paying monthly salaries to her subordinates!
This is incredible!
No one knew what the madam was up to, and everyone was a little scared.
But as time went by, the madam did not make things difficult for them.
The girls also felt relieved.
In a room of Fengyue Tower.
"Why do you think Mom has become so nice? Is there something good going on recently?"
"Maybe Mom has a change of heart, so she's treating us well? Mom is so kind to us, I'm even more reluctant to leave here."
"Girl, what do you think?" A little girl turned her head to look at the charming woman in front of the dressing table.
The other little girls also stopped talking and looked over.
"Hmph! Only little girls like you would think so. Mom has worked in Fengyue Tower for so many years and has never had a guilty conscience. How could she suddenly change? Something must have happened in the meantime... Maybe someone threatened her." The charming woman snorted.
The other little girls were all shocked and gasped.
"Mom is the most powerful person in Fengyue Tower. Who can threaten her?!"
The woman raised her eyebrow, her charming red lips curled up slightly. "For so long, no one has been able to change Mom's mind, and now she has suddenly changed her mind... What's the name of the new girl who came recently?"
"Girl, are you talking about Qing'er?!"
The girls looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.
However, similar statements kept coming out in other rooms.
Lu Yunxi walked through the corridor and heard many people mention his name, wondering what he had done.
She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
It seems that the girls in Fengyue Tower are smarter than I thought!
She became more and more confident in her detective agency.

"Today's dishes are almond Buddha's hand, lotus leaf soup, crystal winter melon dumplings, Dongpo pork elbow, and monk fruit eight-treasure soup." Chef Bao, the cook, brought today's dishes to the table. She lowered her head, looking as if she didn't recognize Lu Yunxi at all, and slowly retreated. "Enjoy your meal, Mom."
Lu Yunxi stared at the dishes on the table, pursed her lips and smiled: "Auntie, then I won't be polite!" Anyway, she had been exposed, so she naturally didn't want to pretend anymore, so she simply picked up her chopsticks.
The madam laughed dryly: "If you like these dishes, feel free to eat them." How could she dare to refuse them?! She didn't want to be beaten!
What a pity.
Although the ingredients are expensive, the final product is very ordinary.
Bao used to cook large pot dishes, so she was not used to such delicate dishes. Her Dongpo pork elbow was the best, and her dim sum was the worst.
As Lu Yunxi tasted the dish, she gradually had some ideas in her mind.
She plans to recruit a few more chefs, including some chefs from various places.
There are so many people in Fengyue Tower. She can't be the only one enjoying the best food and drink while Ling'er and the others have to eat coarse food every day, right?
