Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 358 How Can You Save Face

Hearing Qiniang's tone, Liu Ya guessed the general result.But he still asked: "How was the result? You can fight for Qiniang's face."

Qiniang glared at Liu Ya, then patted the back of Liu Ya's hand with the handkerchief in her hand, and said, "Little girl, knowingly asks, but still teases Qiniang? You are not a coward." Then she sighed He took a deep breath and said: "Usually, I have also asked my husband to teach these girls some serious things. After all, this Hongxiufang is not a brothel, and what the guests want is elegance. But these two girls are still too young to stand on the stage. It's not so solemn, it's actually learning how to wink, so it's no match for others."

Hearing what Qiniang said, Liu Ya was silent for a while without speaking.I just kept putting on makeup for Qiniang seriously.

After drawing for a while, Qiniang couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Ya'er, are you talking? I think you have a smart mouth and a lot of eyes. What you usually think and see are different from others. .So remember that you are coming today, but just think about whether you can give me some good ideas in the morning. I don’t want to get some courtesans, just want to get back the face I lost before. "

After finishing speaking, Qiniang sighed again, rolled up the handkerchief in her hand, and said: "Ya'er, you also know, Qiniang, I am not the big owner of this Hongxiufang, I just paid some money to occupy a position, and because I know how to take care of girls, that's why Zhao Dadong's family chose me to be in charge. If a girl from the capital city would compare us to Hongxiufang, this Zhao Dadong's face is not good-looking. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here for long in Hongxiufang."

Liu Ya knew that Qiniang's words were telling the truth.From the management methods of Xiankeju and Hongxiufang, it can be seen that this Zhao Dadong's head is quick and quick, and he must deal with people and things decisively, and will not be timid or caring about affection.

If Qiniang really lost in this matter, Zhao Dadong's family would not hand over this Hongxiufang to her again.If Qiniang doesn't have any outstanding skills, then the shares of Hongxiufang will be the same to everyone, at worst, she will be liquidated and driven to leave.

However, Liu Ya felt that this matter came at the right time, and it was a chance for her.Otherwise, she really didn't know how to say what she asked Qiniang to do.

Liu Ya said casually: "Then when does the stage start? Since it's a douhuakui, there must be a rule, right? Is it literary or martial?"

"Hey, let's return to Wendou and Wudou." Qiniang laughed when she heard Liu Ya's question, and then said: "Ya'er, I didn't say that for you. I was thinking of the girl from the Spring Fairy Pavilion. That's a harsh word. Miss Xian'er wants literary and martial arts, as long as the brothels of our family make their way, they will dare to follow. They also said that whether it is singing, opera, dancing, composing Poetry, as long as we can beat Miss Xian'er in one round, it will be considered as our victory."

"So crazy?" Liu Ya was also surprised, so she asked: "Then who decides who wins or loses? It can't just be their Chunxian Pavilion's decision."

Qiniang said: "It's up to the judges. The red-handed juan is sold under the stage, and you can buy one for every penny; no matter which girl you are favoring, you can buy the red-handed juan to tie on for that girl. After each competition, the one who gets the most red handkerchiefs wins. However, all the guests who went to the Spring Fairy Pavilion for more than three taels of silver will be given two red handkerchiefs each."

Liu Ya thought for a while and said: "Then Qiniang, are you too honest, you didn't think about finding some people to buy a few more handkerchiefs? As long as your girl wins, it will be fine."

Qiniang was surprised for a moment, then shook her head and said, "How can this be possible. The people in the Spring Fairy Pavilion are not stupid, so they can't tell which ones are guests who really come to join us?"

"You, you are really honest." Liu Ya didn't expect that Qiniang, who is used to the wind and rain, really can't see the tricks in it?Or, the two girls Qiniang chose before were really scumbags?

Liu Ya said: "How about this, I'll help Qiniang choose a girl, and teach her a few tricks to see if she can beat that fairy girl from the capital. In addition, I think the matter of buying Red Hand Juan Qiniang, you are still too honest. How can you win the competition without spending your capital?"

Liu Ya's suspicion is not unreasonable, she doesn't know the rules of the ancient oiran competitions.However, those modern grand prix competitions, such as netizens voting, can hire sailors.If there weren't a large number of sailors swiping the screen, how could there be such a sensational effect. If you want to be popular, you have to have people who like it.

But after Liu Ya finished speaking, Qiniang showed disbelief on her face, she shook her head and said, "Our girls are really good at fighting oirans in brothels. Siyao and Chunlu on my side are not as good as others, but I don't think so." I'm obedient. But you said you asked me to find someone to cheer you on, this...isn't it just opportunistic."

Liu Ya glared at Qiniang, and said, "I didn't expect Qiniang to be so bold and unwilling to do those disgraceful things? But let me tell you, it's probably because the Spring Immortal Pavilion has already figured it out." As soon as this came out, I found a lot of supporters in private, just to earn such a face. Think about it, if Chunxian Pavilion competed with all your brothels this time, wouldn't their girls be famous in a hit? Yet?"

"Chunxian Pavilion, do you want this to be an instant hit?" Qiniang seemed to be hesitant.

Liu Ya suddenly felt, is it true that the ancients were quite down-to-earth, and their minds were relatively simple?If that was the case, it would be easy to handle.So he said to Qiniang: "Well, I'll let this matter go on and help Qiniang win back such a face. If I win a game, how much will Qiniang give me?"

"Little girl, I know that your work will not be in vain." Qiniang smiled, guessing that she didn't want to ask Liu Ya for an idea, so she said: "These days when you didn't come, the stage has already been set up. Two days ago, two girls from our Hongxiufang went to the competition, and they both came back after losing. There is the last competition tonight. I was thinking that if you don’t have any ideas, let Ming girl or Ziruo go to the competition. But if you really have a way to win, I won’t treat you badly if you use this last day to save face for our Red Sleeve Square. In a word, the red envelope of 50 taels of silver is quite a lot.”

A big red envelope of 50 taels of silver is equivalent to the price of two big houses built by the Liu family. Of course Liu Ya is happy.

But she did not forget the real purpose of this visit.So he said to Qiniang: "Thank you, Qiniang, for being forthright. I will do my best. But now there is one more important thing. If Qiniang can help me, I only need half of the 50 taels of red envelopes. You can see if it works." ?”
