Su Xiaolou stared angrily at the simple firewood shed in front of him. He clearly remembered that he fell asleep in Sanniang's room last night, but when he woke up, he found that he was queued here.
The sun that had just risen cast a weak light, and Sanniang only slept for an hour, and was woken up by Su Xiaolou's frequent knocks on the door.
"You bastard, stop knocking on my door." Sanniang opened the door angrily and glared at Su Xiaolou.
"Damn thing!" Su Xiaolou shouted angrily: "Why should I sleep in the woodshed?"
"If you hadn't paid for the night, I would have kicked you out."
"Overnight fee?" Su Xiaolou touched his arms and asked in shock: "Where is my money bag?"
A smile flashed across Sanniang's lips: "You gave me a bag of gold leaves last night."
"Impossible." Su Xiaolou firmly denied: "We, Nanjing Jinyiwei, never pay money to brothels."
"…"
"The money cannot be returned to you." Sanniang said with a sneer: "In the brothel, there are only rules for depositing money in and no taking out. The money you gave me yourself cannot be returned to you."
Su Xiaolou's mouth twitched. He didn't really care about the few taels of silver. He just didn't want to violate the rules of Nanjing Jinyiwei. If there are no rules, there will be a loss of order. However, he also understood that once the money was given to the brothel, he could not get it back.
"I paid hundreds of taels of silver for the night, why do you still arrange for me to stay in the woodshed? Are you going too far?"
"Of course because the room is full." Sanniang replied matter-of-factly: "In addition to the woodshed, there is also a hut for sleeping."
"…"
Su Xiaolou glanced around and snorted: "Just wait, this matter is not over yet. When I finish the yamen affairs, I will come back to settle the accounts with you."
Sanniang crossed her shoulders and said without fear: "I'm ready at any time. Who do you think you are?"
"…"
Su Xiaolou left the backyard angrily, walked to the stable in the front yard, led his horse, and left Fengyue Tower.
Outside the gate, Lu Datong was strolling leisurely on a horse, and suddenly saw Su Xiaolou.
"Oops?" Lu Datong said in surprise: "Did you spend the night at Fengyue Tower last night?"
Su Xiaolou glanced sideways at Lu Datong: "Are you the only one who can indulge in the beautiful scenery and flowers, and I can't stay in the brothel?"
Lu Datong looked at his long-lost old comrade and said with emotion: "I haven't seen you walking out of the brothel in the morning for more than a year. I thought you had some unfortunate disease. I didn't expect to see you today, which makes me very happy." ."
"…"
Su Xiaolou looked at Sanniang coldly, filled with resentment in her heart. He had thought that the relationship between them would gradually deepen, but all these fantasies were cruelly shattered by reality. He felt betrayed and used. He was angry and sad, and decided to draw a clear line with Sanniang.
"Sanniang, I've had enough. You are just a prostitute in a brothel, and you are just a passing existence to me. I will not waste my time and feelings on you anymore." Su Xiaolou's voice was full of indifference .
When Sanniang heard these words, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes. She knew that she had hurt Su Xiaolou and that her former love had turned into a tragedy. She sighed deeply, silently expressing her inner pain.
"Su Xiaolou, maybe I am really just a woman from a brothel. But I also have my persistence and dreams. I once thought we could pursue freedom and happiness together, but now it seems that I was wrong. If you choose to leave, I I can't stop you, I just hope you can find your true destination." Sanniang's tone revealed helplessness.
Su Xiaolou was silent. He thought he could find happiness and change his destiny, but now he realized that all this was just his delusion. He walked out of Fengyue Tower disappointedly and returned to his lonely life.
However, life after leaving Sanniang was not easy. Su Xiaolou gradually realized that he could not erase Sanniang from his thoughts. He often recalled the time they spent together, recalling Sanniang's sweet smile and gentle words. He gradually realized that he loved Sanniang and could not cut her off from his life.
Su Xiaolou decided to pursue Sanniang again and find the love between them. He understands that they may be destined to go through many difficulties and tests, but he is willing to fight for their love to the end.
On a cold winter night, Su Xiaolou returned to Fengyue Tower, determined to renegotiate with Sanniang. He longs for Sanniang's understanding and embrace, and hopes that they can start over.
Su Xiaolou came to Sanniang's room, feeling filled with tension and expectation. He knocked softly on the door, hoping to rekindle their love.
Sanniang opened the door, her eyes filled with tears. She saw Su Xiaolou's nervous and sincere eyes, and she felt endlessly moved in her heart.
"Su Xiaolou, why are you coming back?" Sanniang's voice was choked with sobs.
"Sanniang, I realize that I can't forget you. I love you, I really love you. I don't care that you have been a prostitute in a brothel, I only care about the relationship between us. Please forgive me for my previous indifference and determination, let us Let's start again." Su Xiaolou's tone was full of sincerity and begging.
Sanniang looked at Su Xiaolou silently, feeling conflicted in her heart. She loves Su Xiaolou, but she is also afraid of being hurt again. However, she ultimately chose to be frank and tolerant.
"Su Xiaolou, maybe we are not perfect, but I am willing to start over. May our love be like a blooming flower, stronger and more beautiful after going through wind and rain." Sanniang said with a smile.
Su Xiaolou happily embraced Sanniang in his arms, and their hearts were closely connected again. They decided to face real challenges together and pursue their happiness and freedom together. This is a love story about persistence and tolerance. They believe that as long as there is love in their hearts, they can overcome all difficulties.
Bai Xiaosheng did not despise those teahouses, he was just worried that Xiao Bangchui would expand his power without limit and destroy the balance of power in Nanjing City with the support of Wang Shilang.
The reason why Xiao Bangchui is nicknamed "Bangchui" is not without reason. He's like a brainless gavel, easily taken advantage of. Bai Xiaosheng hopes to make an appointment with him to test whether his ambition exceeds the tolerable range...
Su Xiaolou concentrated on handling the accounts and was busy dealing with trivial matters throughout the morning.
In the afternoon, Su Xiaolou, who had left the government office early, walked out of Zhenfusi. A sedan drove by and the curtain opened, revealing a familiar old face. He looked at Su Xiaolou with a sneer.
"Commander Su, we are destined to meet!"
Su Xiaolou looked at the person in the sedan in surprise, it was Wang Chonghua.
"Master Wang, I didn't expect you to still be alive?"
"…"
Wang Chonghua had a gloomy look on his face. Thanks to Su Xiaolou, he was escorted back to the capital for trial. Fortunately, the Duke of Guo intervened to save his life. However, he was severely punished for accepting bribes. His official position was demoted one level and he was transferred to Nanjing Hu Ministry, filling the position of Liu Langzhong who was demoted.
Ever since Su Xiaolou handed over a group of corrupt officials to He Ao, he no longer cared about the development of the situation.
It is said that most officials were able to retain their official positions with the help of the newly promoted Duke of the State, and they were only punished. Only the official who was suspected of treason and hiding armor had been whipped eighty times and exiled to the border, and was destined to be in trouble. With such a serious injury, even if he did not die on the execution ground, he would still die on the road...
