After being divorced, the concubine became the first lady

After seeing off Li Xinzhi, Mrs. Liu hurriedly ran out: "I'll tell your grandfather and wife."

If she can't stop her, let's stop her together.

My daughter turned out to be even less reliable than me.

"It's no use looking for them." Chu Jinjin blocked the door and reminded, "Now that I am the head of the family, they all have to listen to me."

Liu: "."

Chu Jinjin pushed the person into the house and said patiently: "Mom, our family is in such a situation that I have to go."

In fact, the solution to the problem is very simple, just kill the scourge of the imperial concubine with one sword. But there is no way to easily enter the Ouchi Palace, otherwise the country would have changed hands long ago.

The same is true for Zhou Guoshou.

People's momentum waxes and wanes. If the mine admits failure, who knows where the next step will be.

Not to mention there is also Zheng's consort who is also doing business.

What Chu Jinjin wants to do now, no matter what, punch back, even if both sides are hurt, is to let the noble concubine know that the Chu family, Chu Jinjin, cannot be manipulated at will.

Since there was a relatively safe way to get close to Zhou Guoshou, she had to do it.

Besides, it's much safer than searching for materials among zombies.

Chu Jinjin still didn't tell anyone, and asked Liu to keep it secret. The next afternoon, she arrived at the agreed place.

When it comes to Li Xinzhi’s relationship, most people wouldn’t even dare to think about it.

The largest brothel in the capital is called Manchun Garden. As the name suggests, the garden is full of spring scenery all year round. The brothels inside are not only fat and thin, but also the top prostitutes. They only have chess, calligraphy and painting, which are the basic skills that everyone knows.

The top name of Manchun Garden is Qingxiao, and almost everyone knows it. It is said that her temperament is like that of the Nine Heavens Xuannv in the sky, and she can earn at least a thousand silver dollars a night. For this, most people still don't accept her, but she has to agree to it.

Li Xinzhi knows Qing Xiao.

As for how they met, she didn't say anything, but Chu Jinjin could feel from her tone that the relationship between the two was definitely unusual.

Manchunyuan holds an oiran election every month. The candidates who participate include those who have been brought up since childhood, the female relatives of wealthy families, and even the officials' families who have just become prostitutes, as well as the poor women who are forced to sell their bodies. In addition to their stunning appearance, they are all virgins.

Zhou Guoshou is a second-rank official, so it is naturally inconvenient to show up directly, but every time he takes a fancy to someone, he will definitely send someone to participate in the auction.

In charge of the mines, the most important thing he lacks is money, and it is money that he can spend without any worries.

According to Li Xinzhi's plan, with Chu Jinjin's appearance and Qingxiao's help, she would definitely win the oiran title.

So Chu Jinjin was a little embarrassed and ready to think about it.

Oiran.

Sounds interesting.

A donkey cart was waiting early, and the driver was a middle-aged man with a scar on his face. He opened the curtain and made sure no one was paying attention before jumping on the cart and saluting respectfully: "I have met Miss Chu San, my surname is Zhang. , please call me cousin later."

The guests who can bid for the oiran are all of high status, and naturally they also have enemies.

Zhou Guoshou, who was especially cautious and fearful of death, would have people carefully check the identity of the oiran every time to confirm his innocence.

Chu Jinjin was not raised since she was a child, and she could not pretend to be a prostitute. She could only follow the path of poverty.

So Chu Jinjin’s current name is Zhang Lihua.

This alone is not enough.

Manyuanchun is not a vegetable garden. Anyone can sell their children and daughters. The people responsible for reselling are called tooth merchants, that is, Ren Yazi.

***

It was no different from other courtyards. There were three tall, round servants sitting at the door. They looked at people with fierce eyes. Most of the pedestrians who occasionally passed by subconsciously walked around, especially women.

This is a dental shop.

If you go in, your life will be over.

There was a fair-skinned little girl in the yard, about eight or nine years old. She was squatting by the well, rubbing her clothes vigorously, and begging with bright eyes: "Aunt Wang, please tell me the story of the third lady of the Chu family again. chant."

Aunt Wang is a rough woman, in her thirties, very strong. She shakes the windlass very fast with one hand. When the barrel comes up, she lifts it with one hand without panting. Her voice is very thick. She looks around and there is nothing. The person cared and laughed and scolded: "How many times have I told you, what's the use? She is the dignified eldest daughter of the Chu family. You have never had the chance to meet me in this life."

The little girl stuck out her tongue.

How she wished that she was also Chu Jinjin and could beat many people at once, so that she could escape from here.

The afternoon sun set in the west, and it became dark under the courtyard wall first. The sound of horse hooves came from the door and stopped at the entrance of the courtyard.

The little girl shook the water on her hand and looked at the door curiously.

She is nine years old and has been sold here for a year. She is not yet old enough to receive customers. During this year, she has welcomed and given away countless sisters.

A new sister has arrived.

When she sees people, she opens her eyes wide, what a beautiful sister.

It should be sold to the richest Manchun Garden.

A fat man, bald and greasy, walked out of the house. He passed by the little girl, slapped her casually, and said impatiently: "What are you looking at? Don't think about running away again, or I will lock you up for three days and three nights."

The little girl was beaten so hard that she almost fell down, but fortunately Aunt Wang gave her a hand.

The fat man quickly changed his attention and looked up and down quietly. He was not as surprised as the little girl. He said calmly: "Are you Zhang Wu?"

Zhang Wu's posture was very low: "Exactly, I've met your Excellency."

The dental industry belongs to the lower class, and ordinary people cannot do it, but those who can do it are all ruthless people.

"Is this your niece?" The fat man took the guide, confirmed it was correct, and ordered politely, "Turn around and let me see."

He already knew the general situation before.

This woman named Zhang Lihua's parents had just passed away, and she had spent a lot of money on medical treatment. She also had a younger brother who had just started schooling. It was said that he was doing well in school and was expected to pass the boy's entrance examination.

For the sake of her younger brother's studies, Zhang Lihua was willing to sell herself into slavery.

There was no fluctuation in his heart.

I have seen too many of them, compared to selling them in person from my biological parents, this is nothing.

But this is also a good thing. Selling yourself voluntarily can save a lot of trouble.

The fat man looked more and more satisfied.

It’s rare.

Generally speaking, even though women from poor families have beautiful facial features, their skin is mostly rough and dull.

This Zhang Lihua has as white skin as her name suggests.

Chu Jinjin felt like an animal in the market.

Suddenly I felt a little regretful!

Li Xinzhi didn't say to check these.

When the fat man ordered her to open her mouth and look at her teeth, she gave him a hard look.

Want to beat someone up.

Zhang Wu quickly smoothed things over: "Sir, my niece has a strong personality. Please bear with me."

The fat man didn't care. On the contrary, he was even more satisfied. Being strong was good, but those dignitaries liked the feeling of being forced.

I should be able to sell it until Man Yuanchun participates in the Oiran election.

Yaxing earns the middle price, buys low and sells high, Man Yuanchun is not short of money, as long as people are satisfied, they can afford high prices.

The fat man held out two fingers: "Twenty taels, how about it?"

Chu Jinjin: "."

Is she not as valuable as Li Yulu’s junk jade bracelet that was used as a jackpot?
