Chapter 1022 - 1024: Zhao Yang’s Innermost Feelings (1)
Due to its location on the edge of Liaodan and Lingbei, Qing County had a developed commercial sector, particularly the sex industry, which was extremely competitive. Brothels came up with all kinds of unimaginable schemes, investing not only in training their girls but also in renovations and facilities to make their establishments exquisite.
Under the guidance of two elders, Cai Wei entered the brothel across the street called the Pear Blossom Brothel.
Since it was still early, the girls and their clients had not yet woken up. Only a few maids tasked with rough work busied themselves back and forth. Upon seeing newcomers, who were clearly not patrons, they dared to approach and inquire.
After the old couple explained their business, a maid who was wiping a vase glanced over them and, twisting her body, went to the back room to summon the madam.
The madam was relieving herself on a night bucket when she heard that someone had come to redeem one of her girls. Thinking it was like the arrival of the God of Wealth, she was delighted and quickly ordered tea and fruit to be prepared, while she herself hastily grabbed some rough paper, wiped herself haphazardly, and scurried to the Flower Hall.
Cai Wei and the two elders sat in the Flower Hall. A maid brought tea and fruit, but Cai Wei, uncomfortable with the place, simply sat and didn’t touch the tea, and the elderly couple, out of nervousness, didn’t dare to eat or drink either.
When the madam entered the Flower Hall, her eyes quickly swept over the elderly couple and then fixated precisely on Cai Wei.
By then, Cai Wei had already removed her hood, knowing that negotiating with her face covered would hardly convey sincerity. Moreover, she needed her face to assert the identity of the Wife of King Qin to suppress the madam.
"Hehe, may I ask from which mansion this girl comes? You possess such a fine beauty!"
As soon as the madam saw Cai Wei’s face, she genuinely started to praise her, thoughts churning in her mind.
