Chapter 692 Questioning about the red leaves
The old bustard held the fan and covered his mouth with a smile: "The red leaf girl was indeed our red card before. She was redeemed by a benefactor two months ago and left the capital to become a young mistress."

"Ransomed?"

"That's right, that guest is so proud. He came to Fenglaiyi every day for three consecutive months. Every time he comes, he must order red leaves. When he leaves, he will leave 100 taels as a reward." Yufeng, who was wearing a red dress, said enviously, "I will redeem my life in three months. I heard that I will still be the first wife after getting married."

"That guest looks good, and Sister Hongye is really lucky." Another girl said.

The Ye Shi couple looked at each other. The person they wanted earlier actually left the capital two months ago. Could it be that the corpse wasn't her?
"What's the benefactor's name? Where does he live?" Ye Qian asked softly.

"Young master, you have been asking about Hongye when you came here, which makes our hearts chill!" The woman in the purple dress coquettishly said, "She has already left, how about some of our sisters to serve you well?"

After saying that, several women were about to rush forward. Ye Xie took out a stack of 50 taels of silver notes from his arms and placed it on the table. His cold eyes swept across the crowd. Suddenly, they couldn't help but shudder. He dared to make a mistake and stood there, looking at the old bustard sadly.

"Whoever can answer the question will be rewarded 50 taels." Ye Xieyun said calmly, "If I tell lies, I will not let you have an easy time!"

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, so they could easily make money, and they were naturally willing.

"That benefactor's surname is Wu. I don't know what his name is. He has always been named after Young Master Wu, even Sister Hongye." The pink-clothed woman was the first to say, "He is here. The person who came from the capital to handle the goods stayed for three months and redeemed her life for Sister Hongye before leaving, and Sister Hongye left the capital with him. As for where he lives, I don’t know.”

Looking at the faces of the others, Ye Xie naturally knew that what she said was true, so he took out a 50-tael silver note and handed it over.

Seeing this, the woman in pink hurriedly took the money and put it into her waist under the envious eyes of everyone.

"I know, I know." The woman in the emerald green dress quickly said, "Master Wu lives in Jiangzhou, south of the Yangtze River. I overheard Master Wu mention it to Hongye."

Ye Xie pushed forward a 50-tael silver note, and the other party stepped forward to take it over with joy.

"What characteristics does Hong Ye have on her body, other than a mole on her palm?"

Seeing that the two of them were asking more and more strange questions, the old bustard secretly cried out.

"Girls, the guests have already arrived, hurry up and pick up the guests!" The old bustard didn't want to cause panic, and opened the door to let everyone leave.

Everyone looked at the stack of silver on the table, pursed their lips, and left the room dissatisfied. They knew very well that the old bustard wanted to swallow it all by himself again.

Only the Ye Shi couple and the prostitute were left in the room.

"You two young masters, if you have anything to ask me, don't worry, mother's mouth is very strict." The old man walked up to the two of them and sat down, and said softly, "The question you just asked would cause unnecessary panic."

The old lady poured herself a cup of tea and drank it.

"Is it because of the case of dismembering the corpse that caused a sensation in the capital?" The old bustard said with a chuckle, "I heard this girl ask such a question, and I know that she is a member of the yamen, and it must be the female chief of the court. "

Ye Qian didn't explain, just nodded her head.
