There were several charcoal fires burning in the private room, which was very warm. Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang looked like regular customers at first glance. Not long after they entered, they took off their fur cloaks and wore only their coats.
Qin Ming came to the brothel for the first time. He was kneeling on the soft futon and looking at the furnishings in the private room.
The layout here is somewhat similar to the banquet hall of Cheng Mansion. There are four low tables in the room and several thick futons behind the tables.
The center of the room is covered with a thick Persian carpet, which is quite soft and comfortable to walk on. It is obviously a place where singers perform songs and dances.
He now has Xiao Changxi and Wan'er, two beauties, one older and one younger, so he came to the brothel this time mainly to see what an ancient brothel looked like.
After all, brothels are often mentioned in movies, TV shows and ancient poems, so this time I came here mainly to see the difference between the brothels in the Tang Dynasty and those in movies and TV shows.
As for finding a prostitute to spend the night with, Qin Ming really never thought about it. After all, the sanitary conditions in ancient times were so poor that it would be a tragedy if he accidentally contracted any disease.
.....
Cheng Chumo knelt down on the futon carelessly, took out a piece of silver cake from his arms, stuffed it into Hua Niang's chest, wiped it off and said with a smile:
"Hua Niang, go call all the new girls in the pavilion and let these two brothers choose between them."
Hua Niang covered her chest and said with a smile:
"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Qin, please sit down for a while. I'll go back to my house as soon as I can."
After saying that, Hua Niang kissed Cheng Chumo on the face and left the private room.
When Cheng Chumo saw Hua Niang going out, he looked at Qin Ming and said:
"Brother Ming, why are you still wearing your coat? Could it be that you can't let it go?"
"Yes, yes, eldest brother is right. Brother Qin, let's go out to play. Don't be so reserved. Just relax. It will be easier to get high after a while."
When Qin Ming heard this, he looked at Xiong Daxiong Er and saw that both of them were only wearing thin outerwear. He hesitated and took off his down jacket.
.....
After a while,
The three of them had already drank several pots of tea in the room, and the flower girl didn't come back.
Just when Qin Ming was thinking about whether to go out with Cheng Chumo for a visit, a woman wearing a lavender skirt led several girls into the private room.
He bowed silently to Cheng Chumo who was sitting on the throne and said:
"Mr. Cheng, these are all the new girls from Jiangnan. Do you think there is any one you like?"
Cheng Chumo raised his eyebrows, without even looking at the young ladies, he stared at the woman in the purple skirt and asked:
"Why didn't the flower lady come?"
Hearing this, the woman in the purple skirt had a flash of hesitation in her eyes, but soon she knelt down next to Cheng Chumo with a smile on her face, pressed against his body, and said with a smile:
"Mr. Cheng, Hua Niang has something to do at the moment, so she asked the servant to come over and accompany you."
When Cheng Chumo heard this, he probably had a guess in his mind. He pushed the woman in the purple skirt beside him with his hand and sneered:
"A certain family will ask you again, where did Hua Niang go?"
Qin Ming and Cheng Chuliang, who were drinking tea aside, heard Cheng Chumo's words and put down their teacups and looked at them.
The woman in the purple skirt was almost pushed down by Cheng Chumo. When she heard Cheng Chumo's cold words, she trembled slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"Master Cheng, please forgive me. The slave family should not deceive the master. However, the slave family has a low status and really does not dare to provoke the other party."
Cheng Chumo nodded slightly when he heard this, hugged the woman in the purple skirt and said:
"Who is the other party? Where is he now? As long as you tell a certain family, they will keep you safe."
When the woman in purple skirt heard this, she bit her red lips and lowered her voice and said:
"They are the eldest son of Changsun Shangshu's family and the eldest son of Youpu She's family. They are currently receiving guests in the first room on the second floor."
Cheng Chumo raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said:
"A certain family knows about it, please step back first."
The woman in the purple skirt breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, then stood up and led the girls out of the room.
Although their voices were not loud, Qin Ming and Cheng Chuliang still heard everything clearly.
Cheng Chuliang slapped the table and said angrily:
"Brother, we can't just let this matter go. That guy Changsun Chong actually dared to snatch the woman that eldest brother likes. He's really brave. I have to teach him a lesson no matter what I say this time."
Qin Ming did not speak when he heard this, but turned his attention to Cheng Chumo.
Cheng Chumo was already extremely angry, but after hearing Cheng Chuliang's words, he felt even more furious. He stood up, put on his cloak and sneered:
"Come on, Chu Liang, it's time for us to teach them a lesson, otherwise they will think that my old Cheng family is easy to bully."
After speaking, he glanced at Qin Ming and said:
"Brother Ming, sit here and wait for a while. We will be back soon."
Qin Ming shook his head and said:
"Brother Cheng, I'll go with you so that if anything happens, I'll have someone to take care of you."
Qin Ming said this after careful consideration. Although he was just a white man now, if the Cheng Chumo brothers hadn't brought him to play, he wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing.
If you back down at this time, people will inevitably look down on you. Besides, because of the violent tempers of Xiong Daxiong Er and Xiong Da Xiong Er, Qin Ming is also afraid that they will really cause something. When they start fighting, he can still persuade them. some.
When Cheng Chumo saw that Qin Ming insisted on going with him, he didn't know what to say. He patted Qin Ming on the shoulder and said:
"Good brother, the eldest brother is right. But when we get to the place in a while, you can just give us two plundering formations on the side. With those two losers Chang Sun Chong and Gao Jingcheng, they are no match for the eldest brother."
....
In another private room on the second floor, Chang Sun Chong and Gao Xingxing were drinking with several students.
All of them had their clothes half-opened, each holding two beautiful girls in their arms, holding a wine glass in one hand, and stroking the two girls back and forth with the other.
Among them, the woman in red dress held in Changsun Chong's arms was the flower girl Cheng Chumo was looking for.
Ever since the marriage to his cousin was canceled by his father, Changsun Chong had been silent in his mansion for a few days. Later, he really couldn't think of how to take revenge on the Shandong nobles.
So under the persuasion of the boy next to him, the old ways came into being and he began to lead a life of dissipation and extravagance.
Whenever he had time, he would come to Pingkangfang to have some fun. In the afternoon, while his father was out, he made an appointment with his cousin Gao Xingyi and a few familiar students to come to Baihua Pavilion for a drink.
Coincidentally, as soon as they reached the second floor, they bumped into each other. The flower girl was leading a group of pretty and lovely girls, so he forced the flower girl into the private room.
By the way, he also kept these young ladies. As for what Hua Niang said about offending Young Master Cheng, he might not dare to offend him when he came alone, but today he didn't care at all because his cousin Gao Fuli His martial arts skills are no worse than those of Cheng Chumo.
Furthermore, if such a group of pretty girls from the south of the Yangtze River look like chicks at first glance, wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources to serve rough men like Cheng Chumo?
Such a young lady is the most suitable person to serve a scholar like him.
After thinking about it for a while, his eyes began to blur. He reached out and rubbed the two ladies beside him for a while. He couldn't help but feel happy. At this moment, he was not at all unhappy about having the engagement broken off.
