After rebirth, I teamed up with the scumbag's mistress

Mist rises from the wooden barrel behind the screen, and it becomes dense and hazy, rising above the water and then gradually dissipating in wisps, like the misty rain in the morning light of Jiangnan, like smoke and a dream.

Kang Miaoqing was completely submerged in the wooden barrel. Only the edge of the barrel, her white shoulders, and slightly wet black hair could be seen.

Her eyes were closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pink mouth was bitten with her pearly teeth, leaving deep and shallow teeth marks on one side.

Why? !

How dare Liu Yuefu? !

How dare she? !

Kang Miaoqing's shoulders trembled whenever she thought of that bowl of red date and lotus seed soup.

After a while, she released her bitten lips and snorted coldly.

It's time to teach someone a lesson.

Does she even know what she has done?

Kang Miaoqing began to bathe gracefully and delicately with the roses in the water, but her eyes were full of calculations.

She stood up slowly, stretched out her slender white arms, and in a trance she was wearing a snow-white inner garment. She lowered her head and used a handkerchief to wring her hair half-dry before she walked out.

Kang Miaoqing sat at the desk, thinking again and again under the dim light of the oil lamp, and then picked up the pen to write a letter.

The next morning, Kang Miaoqing woke up just as it was getting light.

Songxue was carefully dressing Kang Miaoqing in front of the bronze mirror.

"Songxue, have you heard what Liu Erniang has been doing recently?" Kang Miaoqing asked.

"To answer your question, young lady, I don't know." Song Xue replied with lowered eyebrows.

"Oh...?" Kang Miaoqing replied in a long tone.

Song Xue immediately knelt on the ground, lowering her head tightly, "I dare not speak nonsense."

Kang Miaoqing chuckled and said, "What are you doing? Get up."

Only then did Songxue stand up tremblingly.

"Songxue, I remember when my mother's family was convicted and exiled, there was a woman named Liu who lived with my mother. Her son was a street thug named Yuan Da, who was very righteous. My mother released Liu's indenture before she was convicted, which was a great favor. He once said that if I had any problems, I could ask him for help and he would not refuse." Kang Miaoqing's eyes revealed a trace of reminiscence.

Song Xue responded softly, "Miss, what are you planning to do?"

"Songxue, go find him. He said at the time that if I had something to do, I could go to Shunyi Casino to find him. I need him to help me find out something."

"Yes." Songxue nodded and responded, then planned to retreat and go to the Shunyi gambling house to find Liu Ma's son Yuan Da.

"Wait a moment, take this jade pendant. If Yuan Da doubts your identity, show him this. Also, go to Tianchang Building and give this letter to Boss Wu." Kang Miaoqing stopped Song Xue and instructed.

"Be careful not to let anyone find out," Kang Miaoqing warned.

"I know, girl." Songxue replied.

Songxue left the house and went straight out of the Liu family and went to the Shunyi gambling house.

What comes into view is a two-story building with red walls, black tiles, and flying eaves. There is a plaque on it with four large characters "Shunyi Gambling House" written in a flamboyant style.

Even during the day, there is still a constant stream of people coming and going in front of the gambling house.

Songxue walked inside. Although it was daytime, various candles were still lit. The light was dim and swayed with the flickering of the candlelight. There was a lot of noise and it was very lively inside.

"big big big!"

"Small, definitely small, I don't believe it, I can't lose!"

"Can you afford to play?"

"Big. Hahaha, this one is big."

"Hahaha, I won, I won! Give me money, give me money!"

"Please make way, please make way!" Song Xue pushed through the crowd, crossed the gambling table and walked forward.

At the end of the road is a huge stage, on which five or six women are dancing to the sound of soft stringed instruments.

At the front was a half-covered Western Hu girl leading the dance. She was only wearing a light green half-sleeve top, exposing her belly, and a long gauze skirt. She had a printed scarf in the color of a concubine on her hands, and a row of small golden bells on her feet, which jingled as she danced. Behind her was a row of dancers. Several of them were dancing to the music played by the musicians.

Song Xue found the gambling house where chips were exchanged nearby and said, "My dear, I'm looking for Yuan Da."

The man dressed as a servant pointed impatiently, "Isn't that the guy slamming the table over there him?"

Looking in the direction where the man was pointing, Songxue saw that the man was tall, dressed in black, with one foot on the gambling table.

Songxue thanked him and went over there.

"Hey, thank you for giving me that. Come on, give them all to me." The man in black said with a grin.

Song Xue walked up to the man in black and asked, "Are you Yuan Da? Mama Liu's son?"

The man in black turned around and glanced at Song Xue, frowning and saying, "I'm Yuan Da, who are you?"

"Do you still remember Mrs. Kang...zi...um..." Before Song Xue could finish her words, her mouth was covered by Yuan Da.

"Come with me later." Yuan Da whispered in Song Xue's ear.

He turned to the crowd and said, "No more playing, no more playing, I have something to do today."

After saying that, he took Songxue away and then put down his hand that was covering Songxue's mouth.

"Wait, let's find a private room to talk." Yuan Da took Song Xue upstairs.

The private rooms in the gambling house were extremely luxurious, with carved wood carvings and Suzhou embroidery mixed with gold thread hanging on all four walls.

Yuan Da asked Song Xue to sit down, "Miss Kang asked you to come and look for me?"

"Yes, I am Songxue, the lady's personal maid. This is the item that Madam Wang gave to you at that time. You said you should recognize it." Songxue took out a jade pendant and showed it to Yuan Da.

Yuan Da nodded. "You just mentioned Madam Kang so carelessly outside. How can you talk there? There are so many eyes and ears. What if you make trouble for Madam Kang?"

"I didn't plan to say it there." Song Xue replied.

Yuan Da nodded, "Madam Kang hasn't come to see me for so many years. Is there anything you need my help with this time?"

"Madam Kang hopes that you can check who Madam Liu Yuefu, the mistress of the Li family, has made friends with and what she has done recently?" Song Xue replied.

"No problem. Other things may not work, but I'm the best at gathering information. I'll give you the result in two days at the Shunyi Casino." Yuan Da said seriously.

"Okay." Songxue responded, then went out and went to Boss Wu's Tianchang Building.

Soon, Songxue arrived at Tianchanglou, a restaurant located in the downtown area of ​​​​the south city, with flying eaves, brackets, and white walls and black tiles.

Because it was not meal time when Songxue came, there were only two tables of guests sitting in the restaurant.

"Miss, please come in!" The waiter warmly invited Songxue to come in.

"What would you like to eat?" the waiter asked as we walked over.

"I'm not here to eat, I'm here to see Boss Wu." Song Xue said.

"Please wait a moment. I'll go see if Boss Wu is in Tianchang Building right now."

"it is good."

After a while, a middle-aged man in purple clothes appeared. "What's the matter?"

Songxue took the letter out of his arms and placed it on the table.

The man opened the letter and glanced at it. "Tell her I will go."

Songxue nodded and left in a hurry.
