Chapter 94

There are some trivial things at home these two days, the update time will be unstable, sorry.

Li Jianxin looked at Qiu Ju who was in a state of nervousness and panic, took a glass of wine with both hands, passed it slowly, and comforted softly: "It's okay, Miss Qiu Ju, don't you think you are still fine now?"

When Qiu Ju heard this, her face immediately turned pale. She stood up, lowered her head and said, "Master, Qiu Ju lost her composure for a while. I hope you will not complain to your mother."

Li Jianxin pulled off the clothes covering Dongmei's body, walked over, covered Qiu Ju, grabbed Qiu Ju's arm, held down her trembling body, looked into Qiu Ju's eyes, and used his most peaceful Said in a calm tone: "Don't be afraid, with me, I won't talk too much."

Qiu Ju stared at Li Jianxin's eyes for a long time, but she saw the deepest sorrow hidden in Li Jianxin's eyes. This trace of pity, which was different from the hypocrisy of other prostitutes, made Qiu Ju sink in an instant.

She felt that in Li Jianxin's eyes, she had regained the respect of herself as a human being, not the pity others gave her. This kind of respect made Qiu Ju feel that she was still alive.

Qiu Ju felt that she was alive, her body was no longer so cold, and she stopped trembling, but there was still a little panic in her eyes.

Qiu Ju avoided Li Jianxin's gaze, looked at the ground, twisted her fingers together, and said, "Qiu Ju is rude, but I let Mr. Li see a joke. I hope you will not be offended."

Only then did Li Jianxin realize that she had been holding on to Qiu Ju's arm, she quickly let go, turned around, and said softly, "It's nothing. Miss Qiu Ju, let's have another glass of wine to warm up." Li Jianxin said He walked back to the table, poured another glass of wine for Qiu Ju, and handed it to Qiu Ju.

Qiu Ju took the wine, took a look at Li Jianxin, and then drank it all in one gulp, the wine smudge on her face was even more charming.Qiu Ju put the cup away, sat on the stool, picked up the pipa, plucked the strings with her fingers, and sang softly: "Seeing off the guests at the first night on the Xunyang River, the maple leaves and the flowers are rustling in autumn..."

Li Jianxin listened to Qiuju talking about the past through the song of "Pipa Xing", her heart couldn't help but soften, a trace of sympathy appeared, and she sighed long, as if there was cotton stuck in her chest.This kind of feeling really made Li Jianxin not know what to say and do, as if there was nothing but sighing.

After just one song, Qiu Ju took a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Looking at Li Jianxin who was still in a daze, she couldn't help calling out: "Master? Mr. Li?"

"Huh?" Li Jianxin came back to his senses, only to find that Qiu Ju's face was leaning over to look at him, he and Qiu Ju looked at each other for a while, then avoided his eyes, only to see the blush on Qiu Ju's delicate face. It looks very cute.

A breath with a bit of alcohol breathed on Li Jianxin's face, Li Jianxin couldn't help but blushed, turned his face slightly and said: "The song sung by Miss Qiuju just now brought back many memories, and I was a little crazy for a while. Now, I have mixed feelings in my heart, and I don’t know how to say it. I just want to ask Miss Qiu Ju if she’s doing well here? If it’s not going well, I’ll help you beat those old bustards and turtles. Wait, let you vent your anger." Li Jianxin said and turned to look at Qiu Ju.

It's just that the expression on Qiu Ju's face kept changing when she heard the words, but fear and worry predominated, as if she remembered something terrible.

Qiu Ju raised her head, glanced at Li Jianxin faintly, and said helplessly: "Hey...my lord, please pour me a glass of wine, and I will tell you in detail." Qiu Ju said, and put the cup in hand Handed it to Li Jianxin.

Qiu Ju watched him pick up the jug, slowly filled a glass of wine for herself, and handed it to her with both hands.Li Jianxin looked at Qiu Ju staring at the wine glass in front of her with a serious face, as if she was making an extremely difficult decision.

The atmosphere remained silent for a long time like this, Li Jianxin didn't urge her, and Qiu Ju didn't say anything more, only the breathing of the two people remained in the room.

Qiu Ju finally stretched out her hand, picked up the cup, drank it down, and said, "Mr. Li, since you want to know Qiu Ju's story, please allow me to tell it slowly. This story is really a long time ago. "

"Miss Qiu Ju, but it's all right." Li Jianxin poured himself a large bowl of wine, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, eyes slightly closed, looking at Qiu Ju.

"I was only eight years old that year. For the first time, my father, who was like a bad gambler, didn't stay in the gambling shop, but stayed at home. He pulled a jacket from nowhere and changed it for me very graciously. He took my hand and said he was taking me to buy me something delicious, so I was led by him on a road of no return.

That road was dark and long, and I was a little scared. I wanted to break free from his hand, but he held it tightly.He looked down at me and said with a smile, good boy, we'll be there soon, and you can eat whatever you want.

Although so many years have passed, I can't remember his expression at that time, but I still feel that he is smiling, but I can already see the humanity in his red eyes, which are a pair of desires. Eye.When I looked into those eyes, I could only feel endless terror.But I dare not cry, I am afraid that his hand will be slapped down.

He pulled me to find a 30-year-old woman. He squatted down, opened my lips rudely to expose the teeth inside, and showed the flesh of my face to the woman, saying that I look like a smart person. He is cute and well-behaved, and if he buys it back, he will definitely make a lot of money with a lot of profits. Only then did I realize that I was also sold in the market, just like the pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep with grass on their heads.

At that time, I had already forgotten to speak out, and tears flowed down silently.The woman just gave him a disgusted look, and then threw out a purse. He took the purse, turned around and said bad luck, saying that he finally got rid of me, a loser, and then he just shook his head and didn't look back. He walked away and plunged into the casino.

After so many years, I can never forget the way he looked at me like an animal.Son, do you think I should hate him? "

"You've got rid of this kind of scum. Whether you hate it or not, it's just a torment in your heart. I really have nothing to say." Li Jianxin said solemnly.

"The young master is much more honest than those hypocrites, and he didn't pretend to come over to persuade me." Qiu Ju said, looking at her wine glass again, Li Jianxin immediately stood up and poured another glass of wine for Qiu Ju.Qiu Ju took another drink from her glass and said, "I was taken away by that woman in her thirties. She told me that it would be good to call her Sister Hong. Sister Hong led me to a room. , Two maidservants came with brushes and buckets, stripped off the flowered jacket on my body, scrubbed me carefully, and changed me into new clothes, which I had never seen before. , I thought I could live a good life like this.

But, it turned out that the nightmare had just begun.

Since that day, I have been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with a group of little girls who are about my size. If I don’t do well in any of them, I will be severely whipped with bamboo sticks on the flesh in my thighs.I was illiterate at the time, and I couldn't play chess. Except for my musical instruments, I was so-so.Although everything is going to take some hardship, but the food is still more delicate, it gave me the illusion that I am in a wealthy family.

Later, I grew up slowly, and my body and complexion were not bad, but I received less punishment, but after this period, I knew fewer and fewer people, but more and more new faces. I just started I don't know where those people went, but I found out later that they went to the inner building, where they lived like dogs.

When I was ten years old, I went to accept an assessment with Sister Dongmei and the others.Sister Hong appeared again, and led us, a group of twenty or so little sisters, to a secret room.I saw an older sister who used to take care of me, locked in a cage, naked and bloodstained on her back.The bloody feeling made me almost vomit.There was a crowd of onlookers around, and several men masked their faces and waved whips beside the cage, uttering obscenities excitedly, their faces blushing sickly.

Sister Hong looked at us with panic and terror, smiled and said that we should obey her, otherwise we would be locked in the cage if we didn't obey.

Naturally, none of us dared to disagree, so she asked us to take off our clothes. We were like pigs in the market for those men to watch. An indescribable shame and inferiority swelled in my mind. Know how I got here that day.

Later, I slowly started to receive customers, like our sisters who are good-looking, but they just sang and sang.As for the rest, I don't know much about it. It's just that although we are glamorous on the outside, we have to be punished on the inside.

Once, sister Chunlan made a slip of the tongue and offended her mother because she drank too much.Mom just gave Sister Chunlan a cold look, and Sister Chunlan was shut down the next day.My mother also asked the three of us to go and see Miss Chunlan together to learn some lessons.

But when I saw Sister Chunlan, she had completely collapsed. She was stupid and could only smile hysterically.

Afterwards, we became more and more well-behaved, and we didn't dare to go overboard at all in our behavior and affairs...Young master, are you sleepy? "Qiu Ju said, looking at the staggering Li Jianxin finally lying on the table, secretly relieved, the incense has been burning for so long, even an elephant may be fainted, let alone a human?
Qiu Ju watched Li Jianxin laying down on the table, and after hearing a slight squeaking sound for a long time, she tiptoed slowly to Li Jianxin's side.Leaning forward slightly, her right hand reached into Li Jianxin's pocket, and was about to take out some banknotes, but Li Jianxin grabbed her wrist. When Qiu Ju looked at Li Jianxin, she found that Li Jianxin had already opened her eyes and looked at her , Hastily said softly: "My lord, are you awake?"

"Well, Qiu Ju, what are you doing?" Li Jianxin looked at Qiu Ju with blurred eyes and said with a confused expression.

"My lord, go to sleep, go to sleep, it's a new day when you fall asleep." Qiu Ju coaxed Li Jianxin.

Hearing this, Li Jianxin sat up, looked at Qiu Ju and smiled, took out Qiu Ju's hand, and said righteously: "If you want money, just ask. I'm not a mean person. You If what you want is freedom, I am not unable to redeem you."

Qiu Ju withdrew her hand and said, "All right, young master, I want a total of 3000 taels of silver."

"Okay, since the girl is generous, I'll give it to Li." Li Jianxin took out the banknotes as he spoke, picked up three 1000 tael banknotes and handed them to Qiu Ju, saying: "This is the 3000 tael banknotes, you And put it away. However, in exchange, can you talk about the inner building of your Tianxiang Building?"

"Young master can naturally spend 1 taels to find the old bustard, but maybe the old bustard won't let you in, young master." Qiu Ju said.

"why?"

"Young master, you really don't look like a prostitute. You don't even have the idea of ​​profiting. I, Qiu Ju, have been in this business for six years. It doesn't matter if you are an outsider or a gentleman, as long as you are 13 to 60 years old. Man, when you come to my Tianxiang Tower, you will be unrestrained.

The more serious you are on weekdays, the more wild you are when you are wandering.It's only today that I can see that there are still people like you who can sit still in the world, who can not be moved by the 'misty fragrance'.

So people like you are the most difficult to deal with, and your plans must not be small, and they must come with a purpose.Before we came, my mother also ordered us to play a show with you, to stun you, to get you drunk, and to leave with your money. "Qiu Ju said and stuffed the silver bill into her pocket.

Li Jianxin rubbed his nose in embarrassment and said, "Why did you tell me this? Why don't you fall for this fragrance?"

Qiu Ju poured herself a glass of wine and said: "Just now when I went to get your money, you didn't get angry, you just looked at me like an ordinary person, without pity or disgust.

As for why we are not affected by the incense, it is because we take a poison every day, and this poison and the incense act as an antidote to each other, so we will not be disturbed by the incense, but you are Makes me so weird. "

"This is the secret of Li's martial arts. It's not easy to tell Miss Qiuju clearly. But I have another question, girl, don't you hate Tianxianglou?"

"Hate? I really don't hate them. They are the ones who feed me and dress me. Why should I hate them? Where can I go after I leave Tianxianglou? Every man in the world has a I can't rely on me to be like this, but you men like to do these things of persuading people to be good, it's really ridiculous." Qiu Ju sobbed silently as she spoke.

Li Jianxin didn't feel well for a while, she just drank wine on her own, but her heart became heavier and heavier.
