Xu Mengxiao froze, this is... the second girl of the Duan family? Why is she here, dressed like this, wait! Xu Mengxiao seemed to understand something. Could it be that the servant of Duan Mansion was sent by this girl to follow him?

In that case, she was probably discovered because she entered this brothel. If she just left and something happened, the Duan family would not let her go.

All her thoughts lasted only a moment. Xu Mengxiao turned around, waved her fan, glanced at the person who bullied her, and said, "Let her go."

"Hey, you're such a little kid, you still want to be a hero and save the beauty."

"Pfft, you're not as tall as my son!"

Height was Xu Mengxiao's shortcoming. Seeing them laughing unbridled, Xu Mengxiao also laughed, "I said, let her go."

"Don't let go, if you dare, take it from our hands...ah!" A chopstick suddenly penetrated the man's palm, and blood flowed across it!

Looking at the instigator, he was smiling and waving his fan. Although he still looked calm and elegant, he gave people an unfathomable feeling for no reason.

"You, what did you do, you know we are..."

Xu Mengxiao takes action again!

The bamboo bone of the fan became her sharp weapon, tapping their joints and acupuncture points dexterously and skillfully. All the movements were as smooth as a sword dance, but in a few breaths, she let a bunch of people fight. The man who was yelling at him because of his size fell heavily to the ground, wailing non-stop!

The madam and some girls watched from a distance and felt very happy. They were tired of these rude and unreasonable men!

"Let's go!" Xu Mengxiao grabbed Duan Siwei's hand and took her away from the center of the storm. Before those people could get up and gather more people for revenge, they had already disappeared.

Duan Siwei stared blankly at the upright and proud back in front of her, her eyes wandering, "Mr. Shen..."

"Why are you following me?" Although Xu Mengxiao saved her, he had to figure out what she wanted to do.

"I, I..." Duan Siwei, who didn't expect to be discovered and exposed all of a sudden, blushed. When she smelled the rouge and gouache on her body, her face turned pale again.

"...Does Mr. Shen find the girls in the pavilion attractive?"

Xu Mengxiao frowned, "They have their own cuteness. What does Miss Duan Er want to say?"

"Don't you think they use sex to serve others, and they don't have good health, they don't do it..."

"Everyone has his or her own way of living, and I can't control it. Besides, if you haven't suffered from others, how can you know what they have gone through."

Xu Mengxiao had no intention of taking an ideological and moral class with her. Seeing that the sky was pitch black, she only knew that if she went back later, it would be useless no matter how silly the kid fooled her.

Duan Siwei was startled when she heard this. Mr. Shen was so tolerant. He was very different from other men. No wonder she could...

She took a deep breath, "So Mr. Shen likes those girls?"

Xu Mengxiao was happy, as if she understood something. Her personal style was suspected, and she needed to clarify.

"I don't like them because I like men."

"!!!" Duan Siwei was speechless, only widening her round eyes in shock and disbelief.

It seemed that he had suddenly gone from lovelorn to an incredible state. I don't know if he was happy or sad, but no woman could get such a good Mr. Shen.

But she likes men!

I didn't know whether to be jealous or smile bitterly.

In the end, Duan Siwei was sent back through the back door of Duan's house in a daze. Seeing her return home safely, Xu Mengxiao's calm demeanor was gone!

She ran back to change her clothes, and then used the smell of alcohol to cover up the smell of rouge and gouache. After all, she also drank alcohol and couldn't get rid of it for a while. Then when she passed by the winery, she bought a lot of good wine.

Thirty taels of silver disappeared instantly.

As soon as he returned to the inn, he saw Lu Hai looking like a judge, with a handsome face, as if he was worthy of his elder brother and had sex wherever he went.

"Didn't you find someone to keep an eye on Shopkeeper Wen? Why don't you trust me?"

Lu Hai, who was about to be aggressive, choked up and felt guilty for a moment, "How do you know I'm looking for someone... No, when did I do such a thing? Don't falsely accuse someone!"

He really did it. Xu Mengxiao knew that Lu Hai was not a sensible person. Even if he looked stupid, he would be very thoughtful when he became smart.

Lu He was still cute, he never interfered or asked, he gave her absolute freedom and let her go wherever she wanted, cough!

Xu Mengxiao was tired for a day and was too lazy to explain, "Anyway, I have to do business. If you do this again, I will go back and make peace with your eldest brother directly. I guess you don't have to be suspicious anymore."

Lu Hai's expression changed. Seeing her dull face and seeing so much wine she brought back, he thought that his father loved to drink, but he rarely drank because he couldn't bear to part with it.

But every time Xu Mengxiao saw that there was no wine at home, she would go to the town to buy some. Now she has bought so much. It is obvious that she does not like to drink at all...

Xu Mengxiao had already returned to her room before she could say the words of apology in her teeth.

She had really considered reconciling with Lu He. Such was her temperament that it would be better to just let her die if she was left to sit at home like a little woman to raise her husband and children. This would also make her passive. He was in a situation where he had no confidence, no matter how kind Lu He was to him.

Therefore, if he doesn't like or can't bear to be in public and interact with people from all walks of life in order to make money and become stronger, she can completely divorce him and not delay him from finding a more satisfying wife.

After what happened this time, Xu Mengxiao felt that it was time to have a good talk with him after returning. She couldn't just rely on Lu He never expressing his position and just treat it as nothing. Compared with women of this era, she was indeed too weak. To assert oneself through deviance.

But if she could only choose between love and the latter, she would choose the latter with almost no hesitation. Although Lu He made her very satisfied, and she wanted to reconcile with him, she might not find anyone who could do better than him in this ancient time. Even better... husband.

After thinking about this, Xu Mengxiao's whole temperament changed. Lu Hai saw it the next day. He didn't sleep well last night, which made him even more flustered.

If his eldest brother lost her because of him, Lu Hai felt that he could not take it back even if he died to apologize!

Because of this, he suddenly realized how excessive his behavior had been for so long.

Although Xu Mengxiao likes to bully himself, more often than not, he takes advantage.

"Are you hungry? I bought you steamed buns and wontons..."

"Where are you going today? You don't have to tell me. Just go. You must have something important to do. It doesn't matter when you come back."

Xu Mengxiao found that Lu Hai was particularly attentive and well-behaved today, looking like a big dog with a smooth coat.

"I'm going to the poultry and livestock market, probably in the next two days. After waiting for so long, I must buy a good horse, and also buy a cattle by the way."

With that said, he hurried away for fear of Xu Mengxiao's rejection.

This made Xu Mengxiao feel a little embarrassed, but there were also a lot of things going on today.
