Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 169
Under the illumination of the lanterns, the entrance of the Jingfei Courtyard of the Second Young Master of the Hu Mansion was as bright as daylight.

It was raining outside, and there was only a damp corridor under the canopy in front of the door. The servant took Hu Jing under the eaves with an oiled paper umbrella.

The house is warm, cozy and dry.

Smokeless charcoal is burning in the inner room, and there is also a curling incense burner.

Beside the round table, Sixth Young Master Hu Xuan and Seventh Young Master Hu Yun were eating snacks while waiting for Hu Jing's return. Seeing Hu Jing's figure, Sixth Young Master quickly spit out the melon seed husks in his mouth and asked quickly: "Second brother, Did you come across anything good when you went out today?"

Hu Jing curled his mouth, took off the cloak that was wet by the rain, and said angrily: "That Jiaojiao in Cuiyun Tower is so fucking good at putting on airs, I spent 100 taels of silver on her, and I haven't seen her yet." people."

Hearing this, the Seventh Young Master Hu Yun, who was still drinking tea leisurely, raised his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows: "No way, who is this? It's so expensive?"

Hu Xuan looked at Hu Jing's furrowed brows, and couldn't help saying: "Second brother, you don't want to pay from the accountant, do you? Since Nan Surou came to power, you can't go there anymore."

In the past, the five great aunts were in charge of the Hu family, and they had some power in everything. There were endless incidents of enriching their own pockets. The difference between heaven and hell.

Since Nan Surou came to power, whoever and how much they spend each month have all been recorded. There is no unclear account. The most deceitful thing is that Nan Surou even released a public list. It's not impossible for the young master, miss, or even the aunt to spend more pocket money, or it will be announced for other brothers and sisters to see.

Whoever buys more rouge and gouache, who spends all the money on Fireworks and Willow Lane, who spends money to help the victims, and who does "good deeds" for her natal family, all of them are clearly written, and it has invisibly given them a sense of respect in this regard. In the heart of comparison, whoever did a good thing and who did a bad thing, did a good thing, everyone complimented each other hypocritically, and whoever did a bad thing would be sprayed to death by the brothers and sisters.

This trick is so cruel!

Hu Jing said viciously: "Well, I know, that little bitch is young, but it's really breathless to manage the Hu mansion like a bunker."

"Yes, if you use the money, you will be found out. If it is not appropriate, especially if the money is spent in such a place, the defendant will go to the father's side, and it will be over." Hu Yun also sat back to his seat a little discouraged.

Hu Xuan nodded his head. "Yes, father is generous in giving us food and clothing. If he knew that we took the extra money to give to the girls in the brothel, he would definitely not spare us."

Hu Jing tore his hair frantically, looked up to the sky and screamed: "Ah... If only I hadn't been so lazy before, I would have gone to the shop to help out like that cowardly fourth child at my father's request, maybe I could still get back Get some money in the account."

"Forget it, why don't we go to Jiumei's place to have fun, it's free, and it's fun." Hu Yun said as his eyes began to shine again.

Enthused by what he said, Hu Xuan immediately expressed his opinion: "Ah, it's my turn to be the first one this time!"

Just when the three brothers were gearing up to go to the bestiality.

There was a servant's report from outside the house.

"Second Young Master, Dong Liu from Suyuexuan came over to send a message that Miss Nan has work for you to do."

There was a silence in the room for a while. Hu Jing was furious. When he heard the news from Su Yuexuan's Dongliu, he thought that Nan Surou was going to exploit him. He immediately scolded angrily: "Working? She has no brains." Are you sick? I am not an idiot like the fourth child, and I am willing to do coolies for others."

The sixth young master reminded in a low voice: "Second brother, don't refuse in a hurry. Didn't father ask clearly last time which of us would like to be a coolie? As a result, the fourth child went alone, and his father gave him a job as an accountant. Money, and easy..."

Yup!

Hu Jing's heart skipped a beat. Hearing the footsteps of the servant leaving outside, he walked quickly towards the door, opened it suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Hey, stop—"

The young man was taken aback by Hu Jing, and immediately bowed his head respectfully and said, "Second Young Master, do you have any orders?"

Hu Jing hurriedly asked: "Did Dongliu say what kind of work you want us to do?"

The young man scratched the back of his head and said: "Sister Dongliu didn't say that she is still in the front hall, she just said that she would tell you personally, if you are not willing, she will go to find other young masters, she said it was because She just came back from the accountant's side, it's near here, so come here first."

Hearing that there was work in the accounting room and that there was work, Hu Jing immediately regained his energy. He hurriedly said, "Quick, take me to see her."

It's not the first time for that boy to know Hu Jing. He is usually the laziest guy and avoids all kinds of work. Is he taking the wrong medicine for being so enthusiastic now?
The boy asked stupidly: "Second Young Master, didn't you just..."

Hu Jing shouted impatiently: "Young Master, have you changed your mind? There are too many things, hurry up and lead the way!"

"Yes..." The boy still bowed his head, not daring to make mistakes, so he led the way ahead.

The servant led Hu Jing across the yard to the main hall.

Dong Liu was already waiting there, she didn't sit down, nor did she drink tea, she stood dignifiedly without looking sideways.

As soon as Hu Jing saw her, his eyes couldn't help but walk around Dongliu's feminine features, and he couldn't help thinking, this woman is really admirable, but he said politely: "This is sister Dongliu, You are not in Suyuexuan to serve Yimei, why did you come to my place?"

It was a polite remark, but Dongliu didn't buy it at all. She didn't even look at the other party, and said coldly: "Didn't the boy who sent you the message just now make it clear? Why did the maid come here when she has nothing to do? Miss asked Do you want to be like the fourth young master, go to the family business, learn something, and earn some pocket money."

Hu Jing didn't expect Dongliu to be so arrogant, he choked on what she said, and said in a hoarse voice: "Can you tell us which shop we can study in?" It would be good if it was a jewelry shop, there should be a lot of money.

Dong Liu glanced at Hu Jing, and secretly praised Miss in her heart for being amazing, she even knew what Hu Jing would say, she straightened her mind, and said in a light tone: "Miss bought the Yuncui Pavilion in the east of Wangdu city yesterday. Now, from the name, the second young master should understand that it is the place of fireworks, and the young lady belongs to the daughter's house. I don't know what men like, so I want the second young master to go there to have a look and check it out."

Land of fireworks?Brothel?
The second young master was completely stunned. If he was asked to be the gatekeeper of the brothel, whether it was a girl in it or not, he could...

Dong Liu saw his expression in his eyes, sneered in his heart, and said without changing his face: "Because this matter is a bit of a loss of reputation, so the miss said, if the second young master is willing to go, the monthly salary will be changed to a daily salary , 20 taels of silver per day."

Hu Jing's eyes widened, "Eh? 20 taels a day?" So much!
