Chapter 10: Chunxianglou

The prostitute smiled and said, "Okay, you pick first."

The madam walked onto the stage and first selected a few young girls and asked them to stand aside. Then her eyes began to wander around the older girls.

The madam pulled Bihe and pinched her face first, then asked Bihe to stretch out her hand and look at it. Then she pinched Bihe's waist and nodded, "Not bad, the skin is still tender, stand over there."

Bihe was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes. She knelt down in front of the madam with a "thump". "Please, don't buy me." She would rather be a slave than go to a place like a brothel. After saying that, Bihe kowtowed "bang bang bang".

The madam grinned, revealing a big golden tooth, "Oh, girl, do you look down on our Chunxianglou? It's really a good life in our Chunxianglou, with delicious food, silk and satin, and maids serving you. I guarantee you won't want to leave once you go there."

Bihe didn't say anything, but kept kowtowed.

The man waved his hand, and two people came up and pulled Bihe to the side of the selected maids.

Seeing that the madam was about to turn to Gu Fei, Gu Fei was anxious, and suddenly saw a person running over not far away.

Gu Fei was so excited that her body trembled slightly when she saw this person.

As soon as this person ran to the stage, his eyes were anxiously looking for him in the crowd.

Gu Fei suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and stretched out his hand to this person, "This big brother, buy me."

This person is none other than Gu Fei's big brother in this life.

Sometimes when the Gu family comes to the city to sell vegetables or buy things, they will visit Gu Fei at the back door of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion.

Gu Qing was so excited to see Gu Fei. He went to the city to buy food today and wanted to visit his sister first. Unexpectedly, he heard on the way that the Marquis's Mansion was raided. Gu Qing asked around and happened to hear someone say that the servants of Pingyang Marquis' Mansion were being sold in the South City today.

Gu Qing ran over desperately, fearing that he would be late and his sister would have been bought.

He was stunned for a moment when he heard Gu Fei's words, and then he nodded repeatedly, "Buy, buy, buy, I'll buy you."

The trafficker came over and scolded, "What are you doing!"

Gu Qing looked at the trafficker, "I-how much is this girl, I want to buy her."

The trafficker looked Gu Qing up and down, and seeing that he was wearing a blue coarse cloth, he sneered, "Okay, twenty taels of silver, you can take it away."

"Two, twenty taels?" Gu Qing was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly.

The trafficker was impatient, "This is the eldest maid of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion. She can not only do needlework, but also read and write. Twenty taels is like picking up something for nothing."

Gu Qing gritted his teeth, "I, I'll go back to get the money. Please keep this girl for me."

He only had a few coins on him, and he came to the city today to buy food.

The trafficker sneered, "I won't give you this promise. See, this lady is waiting to pick someone!"

Gu Qing begged anxiously, "Brother, please be kind. I'll go back to get the money and will be back in an hour or two!"

I don't know if there is so much silver at home. Maybe I have to borrow it.

The madam came over twisting and turning, and looked at Gu Fei standing in front of the stage seriously, "Oh, this girl has good eyebrows and eyes, why is her face covered with dust?"

"Hehe, you are deliberately covering your appearance, you are quite smart."

Gu Fei twitched her mouth and didn't say anything.

The trafficker laughed and said, "This still cannot escape your sharp eyes, big sister?"

The madam waved her hand and said, "I want this girl."
