() As if struck by lightning, the woman raised her head and glared at Liu Jian with her bloodshot eyes.

Liu Jian, on the other hand, calmly enjoyed the service of the girls around him. His eyes were dull and a little regretful, but there was no pity or intolerance.

The woman suddenly rushed forward, kneeling on the ground and walking awkwardly. She wanted to get closer to the young man sitting on her, but she was blocked by two guards.

"You can't do this, that's my daughter! You can't do this!"

Her shouting was a bit shrill, which made Liu Jian frown, and turned to look at the window on the second floor, only to see the beauties, big and small, frowning, obviously dissatisfied with his behavior.

But what about dissatisfaction? He has his own considerations and persistence. He naturally knows who this woman is looking for. If not, he will not refuse outright.

Waving their hands somewhat impatiently, the two nurses signaled to directly lift the woman up. They let her scream miserably and struggled feebly, trying to carry her out of Fengmanlou with cold-hearted faces.

"You can't do this! I will die in Fengmanlou! That is my daughter! I beg you to give me back! Give me my daughter back!"

Liu Jian's handsome eyebrows frowned slightly, and he gave a look to Jin Duan, who was standing beside him. The latter rolled up his sleeves and went to help, preparing to slap the woman until she couldn't speak.

Looking at the woman's miserable face and desperate eyes, Jin Duan couldn't move his hands. He could only reach out and try to cover her struggling mouth.

Why do I feel more and more like I am becoming a complete bad guy?

Liu Jian sighed somewhat depressedly. He sat in an armchair and held on to the chair. The woman fanning him sighed softly, with a bit of sadness. Brother, if you do this, will it damage the reputation of our Fengmanlou?

"

Liu Jian shook his head and smiled at the girl he had served recently. This smile was a little ashamed and self-deprecating. "If I didn't do this, I would have harmed someone." But my brother was a bit unreasonable. Who can compare with this?

Parents' love for women? Yes, Brother Chun grew up in a brothel. He is only twelve years old this year, but he also has extreme thoughts.

Liu Jian shook his head and said: "Since I sold my daughter back then, why bother looking for her again now?"

The woman finally cried out before being carried out of the side yard, and it was so sad that people couldn't bear to look at it. Her hands were tightly clenched, holding dozens of taels of silver, which was her only hope. But this

Hope fell out a little, and fell to the ground in a few arcs.

"Zi'er...Zi'er! Zi'er, where are you! Mother is here! Mother is here to find you!"

"Mother?" Shu Ge's body by the window trembled, his face was full of astonishment, but his eyes suddenly became wet. He stood by the window and shouted: "Mother! Mother!"

Chen Yuanyuan gently held Shu Ge's shoulders, but the latter took a few steps back, turned around and ran towards the door.

"Go and follow it quickly."

In fact, without her instructions, the little girl on the side also ran out after Shu Ge. Yuanyuan looked at the back of the young man sitting on the chair and sighed softly, sighing out her blame at this time.

How can you be so hard-hearted...

"Mom!" Shu Ge rushed out of the attic. The two girls had no time to get out of the way and were knocked out of the way by her, but they had no intention of blaming them.

But after running a few steps, a nursing home suddenly stood up and caught her. She was kicked and beaten but could not let go. This is what these nursing homes do. Although some of them are helping others, but in order not to ruin their jobs, they

It has to be like this. Brother, there is more fear and sorrow in his eyes. How hard can his heart be? Naturally, he cannot agree to the redemption, but he still wants the mother and daughter to meet each other. Brother!"

Shu Ge's cry finally made Liu Jian's face no longer indifferent, but a little helpless. He stood up and took two steps forward, waving to the outside. Jin Duan, who had been watching Liu Jian's movements, quickly greeted him

The two nurses stopped to see if they were going to carry back the woman who was no longer crying and was just looking at the door.

Many people around him breathed a sigh of relief. Even if they are used to the coldness of the world, they still can't bear to see mother and daughter so close but unable to see each other. Brother." Shu Ge threw herself into Liu Jian's arms and began to cry.

Holding her back, the cry of this girl who could only touch his chest always made him upset. Why is the world always so helpless? His sigh contained a lot of messy thoughts. "See you.

Why would you bother to see her if it only increases your worries? "Brother, brother, didn't you promise Shu Ge that you would take Shu Ge to see his mother? You promised!"

"See you! See you! Let your mother and daughter reunite and enjoy your family life!" Liu Jian patted her shoulder lightly and shouted outside: "Bring her back!"

Jin Duan breathed a sigh of relief. He was not used to doing this kind of thing for the first time. He and the two nurses carried the woman into the small courtyard of Ningxiang Tower. The girls around them talked about it, thinking that this might happen.

There are some turning points, just like those folk tales, there are always some happy and happy endings.

The woman sat on the ground, Shu Ge threw herself into her arms, mother and daughter cried together, while Liu Jian stood aside and watched without saying much.

After half a stick of incense and a cup of tea, the woman was tired of crying while holding her daughter. She knelt down in front of Liu Jian with Shu Ge, and stretched out two white fists that she had already clenched towards Liu Jian. When she unfolded them, it was still the same dozens.

Two pieces of silver.

"That's all, if you want to take her away, I can't say anything more. Mother Luo!" Liu Jian shouted to the old lady in the corner who was wiping her tears again, "Go to Mother Wang and get Shu Ge's deed of prostitution.

Don't tell her more."

"Hey, I understand." Mother Luo responded, understanding what Liu Jian's words meant, and walked quickly outside the hospital.

"Madam, you get up first." Liu Jian stood with his hands behind his hands. When the woman heard the words, she quickly stood up, her hair messy and her back bent. Her originally charming face seemed to have aged ten years, but was glowing with a new look.

Brother Rongguang, thank you!"

"You don't need to thank me," Liu Jian's face showed some helplessness, but he was calm from beginning to end. But he usually smiled, and this calmness was considered indifferent.

"Shu Ge has been with me since you sold her here, and I watched her grow up. She has been with me for four years and eight months. I regard her as my sister and never let her suffer any injustice."

"Same, including this time."

Liu Jian stretched out his left hand to Shu Ge. Shu Ge bit his lip, but finally handed his little hand to him and was pulled behind him.

The woman suddenly became anxious. This kind of gain and loss made her spirit on the verge of collapse. But Shu Ge just shook his head at her, with tears on his pink face. She was not just an eight-year-old child.

.

"I only ask you two questions."

Liu Jian waved his hand to the woman, telling her to calm down. "If you can answer me, not only will I not stop you from taking Shu Ge away, I will also buy a house and a field for you, and we will become sworn brothers to her."

Brother and sister." Brother, please ask! "Brother, what's wrong? Suddenly he let go, and he is so attentive to Shu Ge." "Brother has been close to Shu Ge since he was a child. Just after Diewu left, if Shu Ge was also ransomed, what if it was me?

, I can’t agree either. "How can I let her get what she wants?"

Liu Jian listened to the words of the girls around him, couldn't help but smile, and said to the woman: "Let me ask you, how did you get these silver coins? You were forced to sell your girls to pay off your debts, but the gambler would

I have seen twenty taels of silver lost in a gambling house and later beaten to death. Putting aside everything else, where did the taels of silver used for burial come from?"

The woman's face turned pale, and she looked at Liu Jian with a trembling look. She staggered back two steps unconsciously. Her lips trembled, but she left two more lines of tears. "I sold my house to raise money for my late husband."

Enough to bury a few hundred coins, these silver coins..."

A few hundred coins? Not even a tael of silver.

Don't look at it. If you meet a wealthy person in Fengman House, you will be rewarded with ten taels or a hundred taels. This is the largest brothel in Yue City. It is a place for wealthy businessmen and officials in Yue City to have fun. How can ordinary people afford it?

The imperial court only collects nearly ten million taels of tax money from the state treasury every year. This is still a peaceful and prosperous age, and gold and silver are prolific. Common people live in the day, and money can only be measured in terms of money, ten taels for ten coins, and one hundred coins.

money.

If you have an income of three to five taels of silver every year, you are a wealthy family. What this woman holds in her hands is a huge amount of money for ordinary people.

Liu Jian shook his head and felt Shu Ge pulling his left hand tightly behind him, making the wound on his palm hurt. "If you don't tell me, I can guess some. You have many hidden diseases in your body.

It’s not like I’ve stayed here for so many years in vain. I can still see a few things.”

What do you see? Hidden disease?

The two old ladies at the gate of the courtyard suddenly realized, as if they had just discovered something new, they pointed at the woman and started whispering. The girls around gradually heard what the old ladies said, but looked at the woman in astonishment.

After a while, the whole courtyard became a little messy.

The words around her fell into her ears, and her contemptuous eyes were cast on her. The woman's face was ashen, and she looked at Shu Ge with fear...

"Second question," Liu Jian said to himself, making everyone in the courtyard quiet. "When you take Shu Ge away, how will you support her? Or will you make a living by doing this and let Shu Ge grow up?"

Will another disaster happen in the future? Have you ever thought about this? What kind of reputation will your daughter bring with what you have done in the past few years? How much criticism will it bring? Humph! It is better to stay in my Fengmanlou."

The woman fell to the ground with a pale face, her eyes empty and lifeless, but Liu Jian's few words drained all her strength away.

Liu Jian shook his head and hugged Shu Ge's trembling body. He felt helpless at this time because he was not cruel to himself. He had to say this, but he still didn't want to be the evil person. Shu Ge's mind was already mature, so how could he not know anything?

It's prostitution, what is high and low?

Prostitutes and prostitutes are all women whose red lips are tasted by thousands of people. Some girls were prostitutes when they were young and prostitutes when they were old. They were scolded all their lives and their bodies could only be abandoned in mass graves outside the city after death.

Liu Jian squatted beside Shu Ge and reached out to dry her tears.

"She is your mother, and all she did was for you. Anyone can dislike her and scold her, but you can't."

"Mother...mother!"

Shu Ge rushed forward to hug the woman again, but the woman sat upright and refused to hug her. After a while, he suddenly pushed Shu Ge away from her, and finally couldn't help but burst into tears.

The girls around also wiped away tears again. If Die Wu left with joy and envy for the family reunion, what should she say at this time?

"No, I'm not your mother, I'm not, I'm not... you are not my Zi'er, don't recognize me!"

Liu Jian turned around and no longer looked at the mother and daughter. He looked at Chen Yuanyuan upstairs who was sighing to herself, raised his head and took a breath.

"It is the most difficult to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman and the hardest to repay the kindness of a mother."

Liu Jian reached out and took a piece of paper handed over by Luo's mother, and slowly tore it into scraps of paper, "From today on, Shu Ge is my sister. If you are willing, madam, I can work as a handyman in the backyard."

The labor is five cents of silver per month."

"Okay, let's all disperse. Let's prepare the front yard to open to receive guests."
