20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 194
Xiaoxiguan, Huifangli.

As night falls, the moon rises from the east mountain, and it’s just time to turn on the lanterns.

The downtown streets were still busy with traffic, and the people were looking forward to returning to peaceful days. After the news of the peace talks between the north and the south spread, the tense situation in the provincial capital eased slightly, and business quickly became lively again.

If you pay attention, you can even see many party members on the street, each with their pigtails cut off, and strutting around in a grand manner.

Although the peace talks have not yet been finalized, judging from their proud expressions, it seems that the revolution has been successful. When they look around and raise their hands, they often show the savior's behavior and are immersed in the superiority of "I am alone when everyone is drunk". Feeling complacent.

I heard that Zhang Long and the others had returned and were gathering in brothels and opium dens to talk about how to save the country.

Under the wall, there were three or two little beggars, far from having such great ambitions. They only cared about what they would eat for their next meal.

"Master, please be merciful."

Li Zhengxi pretended to beg while watching the movements at the door of "Huifangli".

Xiao Shitou squatted beside him, unhappy, and from time to time he would dig at the sand and gravel on the ground with his fingers.

Even though he was ignorant, he now understood his situation - he was being forced to participate in monitoring Zhao Lingchun.

He didn't understand the meaning of this move, but he could guess just by intuition that his sister-in-law had a grudge against Zhao Lingchun, and an experience he had mentioned inadvertently before became an important confession in Li Zhengxi's eyes.

Xiao Shitou felt a little guilty and blamed himself for this, even though he didn't even know what Zhao Lingchun's name was.

But he who does not know is not guilty, and he cannot be blamed for this.

In fact, if Zhao Lingchun was alert enough, she would have discovered that there were always a few little beggars sitting across the street from "Huifangli".

If she had been willing to pay more attention, even if she had paid more attention, she would have discovered that the small stones were among them. She would have been able to find out the clues by just asking a few questions.

However, Zhao Lingchun only saw the prostitutes coming and going, as well as the money and jewelry in their hands.

That night, the reason why she gave Xiao Shitou an ocean was actually just a temporary act of kindness after informing him, in order to seek blessings from the gods and Buddhas.

Apart from this, she has never given any charity to the beggar, nor has she shown the slightest care.

Xiao Shitou was worried, fearing that he would harm Zhao Lingchun.

"Snapped!"

Li Zhengxi snapped his fingers, interrupting Xiao Shitou's fantasy.

"Xiao Shitou, can you please stop being so embarrassed? Don't you care about that kiln sister? Aren't you happy that you watch her here every day?"

"Happy, happy." Xiao Shitou smiled bitterly.

Having said that, since he met his sister-in-law, Xiao Xifeng has always taken him with him, saying that he wants to protect and take care of him. In fact, he has no personal freedom at all. He has no chance to secretly inform Zhao Lingchun.

At the moment, Xiao Shitou is in a state of disbelief.

The same is true for Zhao Lingchun at the door of "Huifangli".

She became keen on welcoming guests and seeing them off, because the more people and lively the lobby was, the safer she felt.

Prostitution has always been a well-informed place. From the mouths of prostitutes, Zhao Lingchun has gradually figured out the ins and outs of the case of the deserted Falun Temple.

The Bai family has fallen, but Jiang Xiaodao is still there.

Nowadays, the security in the provincial capital is slightly lax. Zhao Lingchun is alone and does not have a family to take care of. If he was determined to run away, he should have taken action long ago.

But she always hesitated and took chances.

Whenever he spends a day sadly, Zhao Lingchun can't help but deceive himself - maybe Jiang Xiaodao doesn't know?If she knew, why didn't she come to arrest me yesterday?
The answer is actually quite simple.

She is still alive only because Jiang Xiaodao wanted to use her to seduce the Bai family, and then he went to seek help from his patrons, visited the Su family, rescued Xu Ruqing, and killed Bai Guoping. Although he had set up an eyeliner, he never Make time to do it.

Perhaps Zhao Lingchun herself didn't realize that her repeated hesitation was not because of stupidity, but because of greed.

She pinned her hope of escaping from Fengtian on the comings and goings of prostitutes, hoping that a man would take her away.As for this man, it is best to have some money and some power, and of course he should regard himself as his heart and treasure. Only in this way can she continue to enjoy the rest of her life.

Therefore, she is more willing than ever to show off.

"Ah! Mr. Liu, here you are! It's been a long time since you've served on my plate. Hey! I'm just filling in for you now. It's not like I'm not going to stop doing it. When it's time to pick up guests, I have to pick them up. You can Give me a thumbs up."

"Hey! Shopkeeper Qian, please come to the house. I heard that your business still has a semicolon in Anton? I have never been to Anton in my life. If I have a chance, you Take me to have some fun."

"Master Sun, come on, come on, please sit down. I have to have a drink with you today..."

All these words and deeds were inevitably noticed by other girls, so they gathered in groups on the corridor on the second floor and pointed at her.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, look at how naughty that girl is! It's like she can't walk when she sees the old man. She seems to be eager to pick up a rich man and fish her out."

"Isn't that right? Shopkeeper Qian is already 70 or [-] years old. Whenever the old man comes to our place, he just listens to music and drinks some wine. He is so happy that he just falls down. Just like that, she still goes to people. What the hell are you wearing on your body?"

"I think she is out of her mind. She's not even the number one in our 'Huifangli'. She's just a big-footed girl. She still wants to be given a baby. Go out and dream! Sister Yao, go out and be a baby, a thousand of them." There’s not even one in there!”

"The one who goes out will probably not end well. If he doesn't get it right, he will suffer even more!"

The words are crude but the truth is true.

Zhao Lingchun was extremely flattering and willing to play with the guests in all kinds of chores, but all he got in exchange was a few perfunctory words from the old and young men in bed.

After exhausting efforts and working for several nights, no one was willing to take over and fish her out.

Zhao Lingchun felt that he was bored and gradually lost confidence, so he thought about selling the jewelry, exchanging some money for it, finding another place, and starting from scratch.

It's a pity that after ten years of being immersed in the romance field, she is no longer the daughter of the escort agency. Her wealth has clouded her exquisite heart, and her gentleness has eroded her strong bones. When she is about to die, she still cannot let go of these external things.

As soon as this idea came to my mind, I felt secretly distressed.

She likes all of the jewelry and wears them with affection. How can she bear to sell them?

While he was frowning, a sound like a loud bell suddenly sounded behind him.

"Ling Chun'er!"

This voice made too much noise, as if the cups and plates in the entire lobby were shaking slightly.

"Huifangli" suddenly became silent, and the laughter of the prostitutes and girls suddenly stopped. The teapot in Fulong's hand hung in the air, and everyone couldn't help but look sideways.

The voice was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Zhao Lingchun turned his back to the door and was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he immediately turned around with interest and his eyes suddenly lit up.

But at the door, a strong man with a black face and purple lips stood suddenly, wearing a brand new and straight patrol battalion military uniform, with a pistol on his waist, and two guards standing on the left and right.

What a reckless man is back!
"Ah! It's you, Wang Guandai!"

"Hahahaha!" Wang Yanzong laughed loudly, "Isn't it just me? Who else can be there besides me?"

The big teapot Fulong hurried forward to greet me and said with a smile: "Oh, Wang Guandai, you haven't been here for a long time, why do you have time to come over today to support me?"

Wang Yanzong waved his hand and said boldly: "The party members are traitors and are causing rebellion. Governor Zhao and Commander Zhang are in urgent need of manpower. I, sir, will ride on the wind and my official position will be restored!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the lobby immediately took the lead in cheering.

"The king has led heroes to the world and deserves to be reinstated. Now is the time to make meritorious deeds. The future is bound to be limitless!"

"Come on, come on, I'm starting a good thing. Let's all toast to the king and bring him a drink!"

Wang Yanzong laughed and waved his hand, stepped forward in two or three steps, hugged Zhao Lingchun, and said: "Brothers, don't pick on me as a gift. It's hard to find time to come here. Let's drink later!"
