Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Chapter 36 The Oiran's Struggle 1

Tinghe was dazed when she opened her eyes again, because she was playing something under the gaze of a huge crowd of people, but suddenly the string broke and the whole environment suddenly became quiet.

Then came the boos and roars of various tones.

Soon, while she was still confused, a flashy old woman grabbed her and dragged her into a room.

The sound of the door closing was heard, and the old woman grabbed her arm and twisted it. Tinghe screamed in pain, and the old woman was pushed to the ground.

Unexpectedly, the old woman got really angry and called a bunch of servants in to teach Tinghe a lesson. Tinghe ran around the table, pushing the servants who came near her.

In the process, she was hit quite a lot, and she screamed in pain with her teeth bared:

"Stop, stop, stop, wait a minute, stop fighting..."

But her words had no effect at all. The old woman twisted her several times, causing her to jump in pain.

But the system in her mind was laughing so hard that it couldn't stop.

Later, Ting He was really tired from running, and she held her knees with both hands and shouted:

"Stop, stop chasing me. Why are you beating me up for no reason? Look at what you've done to me."

The old woman stopped when she heard this, breathing heavily, and yelled in a vulgar language:

"Little bitch, you little slut who is ridden by thousands of people. I bought you to entertain customers. It's fine if you don't obey, but you deserve to be beaten. I thought I let you perform on stage after I beat you up, but you gave up halfway through the performance and even broke my expensive Yangzhou Guangling Qin. Little bitch, I think you didn't beat me enough. Come on, beat this little bitch to death."

One sentence explains the current situation clearly. It is sad and lamentable that she is a prostitute in this life.

Ting He rolled his eyes and spread his hands, a plan came to his mind, ready to divert his anger, so he said:

"Stop, stop, stop. Wait for me to finish. I played the piano very well. I felt that I played well today and I could compete for the top spot without any problem. But it seems that someone tampered with the Guangling Qin, so the strings suddenly broke. I tell you, it has nothing to do with me. You should quickly check who tampered with it, so as not to offend some noble and end up losing more than you gain."

The old woman paused for a moment, thinking about something, and then she spoke directly:

"Little hoof, just wait for me. If I can't find out who did this and offended the censor, I'll take your life."

After saying that, the old woman twisted her body and left with her servants. Only the sound of the door being locked was heard, and she was actually locked in the room.

Seeing that everyone had left, Ting He then rubbed his arms and buttocks with a grin, muttering to himself:

"You old bitch, you're so cruel, it hurts me to death."

When I lifted my sleeves, I saw that my arms were all red from being pinched and twisted, and some were even blue and purple.

She opened her mouth and asked the system to give her a repair pill, but was rejected by the system. After she reacted, she said:

"Forget it, I'll accept the memory first and take the medicine later, so that the old bitch won't come and beat me up again. Didn't I bring my body-refining skills with me? I just felt so weak that I couldn't even push that old woman away. Damn it, all my training was in vain."

The system just stopped laughing and said with a straight face:

"It is useful, but it is your soul that is useful. This body is not yours. Isn't it normal that it is useless? Accept the memory quickly, or that old procuress will drag you out and beat you up again. Haha, normally I really won't laugh unless I can't help it. The way the host jumped up and down after being beaten is so funny, haha, hahahaha..."

Ting He curled her lips, rolled her eyes, rubbed her arms and buttocks, and said unhappily:

"What are you laughing at? Quickly transfer the plot to me. Don't miss the original owner's memory..."

The system transmitted the original owner's memories to Tinghe while smiling.

……

Yan Tinghe is the daughter of Yan Jiuwen, a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan. She has been living a life of luxury since childhood and is lively and cheerful. Although in that era, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, artisans and merchants, merchants had the lowest status, she was still rich.

Yan Jiuwen's cloth business was booming, and he later developed a kind of gauze that could reflect colorful colors under the sun, called... brocade gauze.

Because of this brocade, the Yan family's cloth business is booming.

Just because a traveling merchant brought it back to the capital, and it was presented to a noble in the palace by the wife of an official in the capital, the noble was very pleased, so he sent people to take away a lot of brocade and gauze. The Yan family became famous in the circle of nobles in the capital, and the cloth of the Yan family became very popular. They earned more than ten years' worth of money in one year, and this batch of cloth became a hot item for the new imperial merchants.

After making money, Yan Jiuwen bought more jewelry and clothes for his daughter Yan Tinghe, and also made her wear the finest gauze dress made of brocade gauze, which made everyone in Jiangnan envious.

Yan Tinghe's mother died of complications during childbirth. Yan Jiuwen has never remarried for all these years and has been taking care of his daughter wholeheartedly.

Who knew that this daughter had two personal maids, one named Qing Ning and the other named Hong Ying. Because the Yan family was extremely friendly, many people were jealous of them. However, for the sake of his daughter, Yan Jiuwen refused to remarry and never even took in a concubine.

Unexpectedly, one day he was late for business talks and was dizzy when he came back. He accidentally walked into the wrong room and was taken advantage of by the maid in the old lady's yard who climbed onto Yan Jiuwen's bed.

After the old lady heard the news, she turned a blind eye and let Yan Jiuwen take the maid as his concubine. If she got pregnant, it would be a way to leave a successor to the Yan family. But with only a little girl, what future could she have? What would happen to the Yan family's huge fortune in the future?

The old lady didn't have any nieces, and she had few offspring and shallow relatives. When she was young, she only had one child, Yan Jiuwen, and she also left behind a little girl.

When Yan Tinghe learned that her father was going to take a concubine, who would be the old lady's maid, she was so angry that she went to argue with her father and grandmother, but was scolded instead.

Yan Tinghe was so depressed that she ran away from home and went to a farm to relax, with her maid following closely behind her.

After living in the farm for a few days, she felt it was boring, so she climbed the mountain to get some fresh air. She didn't want to go home to see the faces of her father and that aunt.

Unexpectedly, when he climbed halfway up the mountain, he was bitten by a snake that appeared halfway. He fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

A scholar who was collecting folk songs happened to pass by and rescued her. He helped her up and found out that she had been bitten by a snake.

He ignored the distinction between men and women and helped her take off her shoes to expose her ankles, then directly put his mouth on her to help her suck out the toxin. He almost got poisoned himself. Fortunately, the servant who followed behind him arrived in time, carried the scholar on his back and left without caring about Yan Tinghe.
