Rebirth of the General"s Granddaughter Chapter29 Purchasing People [1]
Zi You walked in to stand in front ofhim and softly said, "Fang Shiwei [(Imperial) Bodyguard, Soldier], if you wantto see me punished by grandfather or grandfather to get angry, then you cantell him about what happened today. Otherwise, keep quiet."
Without waiting for Fang Dasheng toreply, she walked into the biggest geisha building, Chuyao Guan.
The women at Chuyao Guan sold theirtalents and not their bodies. The women all had beautiful delicate waists, likewillows, lovely and moving. Of course, whether it came to singing, dancing,playing instrumental music, zither and chess, or painting; the women here wouldnot lost to daughters of n.o.ble families.
It was currently broad daylight andalthough there weren"t as many guests as the nighttime, there were still soundsof music and feasts; very lively and entertaining.
Dressed in flirtatious and movingclothing, those vying for beauty and attention sang, danced and played music.Narrow willow waists swaying made those guests unable to stop clapping andshouting.
This was the city of Jingdu. There wereplenty of wealthy idlers who ran here for entertainment in the middle of theday. Zi You unconsciously twisted her lip, feeling indignant for grandfather, uncle,and those stationed at the border all year-long.
"Ye, you"ve came. Welcome inside!" ZiYou hadn"t arrived for a minute yet, when the female brothel keeper warmly cameforward.
She was amazed seeing Zi You"sappearance. This little gongzi was very handsome! Even the most beautiful womanin Chuyao Guan was not comparable.
How did those eyes grow? Even gems andcrystals were not as sparkling and translucent or bright and deep.
The proprietress stared at Zi You"seyes, seemingly mesmerized, and did not speak for a time.
Zi You finally asked, "Madam, do youhave someone here who had not received a guest yet [Qingguan]?"
The old proprietress came to andanswered, "Yes, we have, we have. Gongzi, please come inside. What kind ofwoman do you want? One who can sing, dance, play zither, or paint? Even if youwant one who can perform eighteen kinds of martial arts, we have here too. b.u.t.the price will be more expensive."
Zi You was too lazy to speak in circleswith her. She directly said, "One who can dance is fine. Fetch me all theQingguan who can dance. This Ye wants to personally select."
"Okay. Gongzi, please wait. I will gofind all the Qingguan who can dance here. Xiao Taohong, quickly serve gongzisome tea."
Zi you deliberately lowered her voice.She successfully tricked the old proprietress into thinking she was somewealthy family"s son looking for a dancer to entertain guests at home.
In a few moments, the proprietress ledtwenty-one or twenty-two girls over, aged twelve or thirteen to fifteen orsixteen.
She smiled at Zi You, "Gongzi has goodeyesight! It"s not that I"m boasting, but our Qingguan here at Chuyao Guan areall top-notch."
She pulled out a fifteen-year-old girlwith charming and enchanting looks. She boasted, "Luxiu is a Qingguan anddances the best here. She is just about to receive a guest. Gongzi, do you wanther to dance for you to see? Luxiu"s long-sleeved dance is very good."
If it was very good, then the price mustbe "good" too. For Mu Ying Rui, that sc.u.mbag, was he worth her spending a fewthousand silvers?
Zi You coldly smiled in her heart.Leaning back on the chair, she lazily said, "Don"t need to dance one-by-one.Let the girls all dance together."
"Yes." The proprietress wisely stayedquiet, immediately going to find a musician. Whatever the guest needed, theywould provide. That was the rule of this business.
