Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

Soon, the madam came in with a few girls dressed up beautifully.

When she saw that they were unfamiliar faces and then looked at the clothes they were wearing, the madam's eyes lit up.

"Hey, is this your first time visiting Yaofang Pavilion?"

The madam's smile was warm but not flattering. Even the height of the corners of her mouth and eyes was just right, which made people feel comfortable when looking at her.

Liu Xu raised an eyebrow, "I wonder what your mother's name is?"

"My name is Jin Dai. Young Master, if you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Dai."

"Um...Aunt Dai, I've heard for a long time that our Yaofang Pavilion is full of talented people, all of whom are both beautiful and talented. I brought my brothers here today, and I hope that mother can recommend a girl with outstanding talents and extraordinary temperament. This young master will definitely reward her handsomely." Liu Xu looked at the girls who were flirting with hesitation, and asked with a wink.

The madam glanced at Xing'er and the other two and immediately said with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes, young master, don't worry, I will go and fetch her for you right away."

He paused deliberately and said, "It's just our girl's bonus..."

Liu Xu understood immediately, "The bonus is not a problem, Aunt Dai just needs to bring the person here!"

The madam's smile became more sincere when she heard this. "Okay, gentlemen, please wait for a moment. I will go and invite our Miss Qinxin."

The madam walked away twisting her waist, and soon the sound of jingling jewelry was heard.

A woman in a lavender dress walked slowly towards them. She had a slender figure, a face as pretty as a peach, and a look in her eyes that was a little cold, yet still charming.

She bowed slightly and said, "My name is Qin Xin, and I am honored to meet you gentlemen."

Liu Xu and others' eyes lit up, thinking that the Yaofang Pavilion was indeed worthy of its reputation, and this girl named Qinxin was truly extraordinary in temperament.

The few of them stared blankly for a long time, Qin Xin seemed to have gotten used to it. She just stood there quietly, like an orchid in a valley.

Liu Xu quickly came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Miss Qinxin, please take a seat. It is our honor to have you accompany us today."

Qin Xin bowed slightly to express her gratitude, then walked behind the gauze curtain and slowly sat down.

As her jade fingers gently plucked the strings of the zither, a melodious sound flowed out like water.

The sound of the piano sometimes sounded like the gurgling stream, clear and pleasant; sometimes it sounded like a mountain waterfall, majestic and magnificent, as if it could bring people's thoughts into a dreamlike realm. Everyone was intoxicated by it, and for a moment, the private room was quiet and beautiful.

Several of them also learned to play the qin from Aunt Qu, especially Liu Xu.

In order to prevent her young lady from being embarrassed at future palace banquets, Nanny Qu was very ruthless in training the willow catkins.

But Liu Xu thought that the difference between the sound of her playing and that of the girl Qin Xin was like the difference between a star and a beggar singing on the street.

There was a faint sound of piano in the private room, and Liu Xu and the others were mesmerized by it.

Soon, the performance on the stage ended and the surrounding lights suddenly went out.

When the lights slowly lit up again, a girl in red slid down from the brocade upstairs, accompanied by petals falling from the sky. The climax of the night came - the oiran appeared.

The courtesan was wearing a gorgeous red long dress, with lifelike flowers, birds, fish and insects embroidered on it. She was wearing pearls and jade on her head, which was dazzling. Her face was beautiful and her eyes were charming. When she opened her mouth, her voice was melodious and graceful, like an oriole singing out of a valley, which made people intoxicated.

The oiran was surrounded by several dancers in white gauze, which made her red dress even more charming.

At this moment, the piano music in the room seemed to be lighter, and Liu Xu and the others were also attracted by the performance on the stage.

The song ended and the crowd dispersed. The dancer in white left the stage and was replaced by the madam named Jindai.

The madam was all smiles and first gave a series of speeches of gratitude and then introduced the courtesan.

Liu Xu and the others were surprised after hearing this. They didn't expect that this woman named Feiyue was actually from Nanyue.

Out of caution against the people from Nanyue, Liu Xu immediately winked at Xuan Qi, who nodded and walked out.

At this time, the stage had already reached the stage of auctioning virginity. The old procuress said with a smile on her face: "Gentlemen, the next step is to auction the chance to spend a good night with our Miss Feiyue! The starting price is one hundred taels of silver!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a commotion in the audience.

"I'll give you two hundred taels!" a fat and big-eared wealthy businessman shouted loudly.

"Three hundred taels!" Another young man in luxurious clothes was not willing to be outdone.

The two refused to give in to each other and the price soared.

"Five hundred taels!" The rich businessman stared, as if he was determined to get it.

The young master snorted coldly: "Eight hundred taels!"

The rich businessman was so angry that his face turned red: "One thousand taels!"

At this time, people in the audience began to whisper.

"These two really spent a lot of money for the Oiran!"

"That's right. I don't know who will win in the end."

Liu Xu and others were watching this scene in the private room and found it very interesting.

Han Duoduo smiled and said, "Tsk, tsk, one thousand taels. If it were an ordinary family, it would be enough for a family to eat and drink for several lifetimes."

Xing'er and the others nodded, "This courtesan is really charming. Look at those two people arguing so hard that their faces are red and their necks are thick."

Liu Xin shook his head: "How many people who come here are short of money?"

The two sides were still bidding, and in a blink of an eye, the price had risen to 1,500 taels. The young man's forehead was sweating, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Two thousand taels!"

The rich businessman slammed the table angrily and shouted, "Two thousand five hundred taels!"

At this moment, there was an uproar in the audience and everyone was amazed.

"This is really a huge investment!"

"It seems that this wealthy businessman is determined to win the courtesan."

Some people started betting on the final outcome.

"I bet on Young Master to win. Judging from his momentum, he should have a backup plan."

"I think the rich businessman is determined to win. I'm betting on him."

Liu Xu ate melon seeds and watched with interest: "This is really a good show."

Han Duoduo echoed: "That's right, you don't usually see such a scene."

Just when everyone thought the rich businessman was going to win, the young master suddenly shouted, "Three thousand taels!"

The rich businessman's face turned pale, he gasped, hesitated again and again, and finally shook his head and gave up.

The madam shouted excitedly, "Three thousand taels for one time, three thousand taels for two times, and three thousand taels for three times! Deal! Congratulations to this young man for being able to spend a wonderful night with our Miss Feiyue tonight."

Some people in the audience felt regretful, some were envious, and some were jealous.

After the auction of the courtesan ended, other girls came on stage to perform. Liu Xu and others continued to eat, drink, have fun and enjoy the show in the private room.

Time passed unnoticed. "It's getting late, we should go back." Liu Xu said.

The other people were actually a little reluctant to leave after hearing this, but they still knew their limits and followed Liu Xu.

After bidding farewell to the madam and her group, they left Yaofang Pavilion and boarded a small boat back home.

Along the way, several people were chattering about their experiences tonight.

But... when they returned to their residence and found a familiar figure standing in the yard, they all fell silent.

In the courtyard, the man stood with his hands behind his back, his face unclear, looking at them with cold eyes.
