Sisters in the Deep Forest Valley: Many Fun Things

Lin Lanshan frowned and said with dissatisfaction:

"A mule usually costs only five or six taels of silver, but you're asking for eight taels? The price of the carriage is almost enough to buy a mule. Are you trying to fool us because we're young?"

"Miss, we can discuss the price. I'll give you a discount of five hundred coins, how about that?"

Lin Chunyi's face turned ugly as she said:

“Young man, we specifically asked around to make sure you were honest in your business, and that's why we came all this way. Your price is really dishonest! If you're not serious about selling, we'll just leave now…”

The waiter quickly stopped the two, feigning difficulty, and said:

"Ladies, please don't be angry. I'll go ask the owner if we can offer a lower price. Please have a seat and some tea..."

Before an incense stick had burned long enough, the shop assistant invited the shop owner, who looked very gentle.

The two sisters bargained with him for a while and finally agreed to buy the mule and the carriage for ten taels of silver.

Their guild would set up mule carts and deliver three days' worth of feed to the mules.

They also provided a complete set of small tables, wooden quilts, blankets, and a wooden box for the carriage.

Finally, it took an hour to teach them how to drive.

By the time we left the livestock yard, the sun had already set.

They put their baskets into the carriage, and Lin Lanshan volunteered to drive.

She gently stroked the mule's mane, then awkwardly climbed up and sat in the front of the carriage.

The mule brayed a few times, "Ah, uh, ah, uh uh," and its voice did indeed sound very much like a donkey's.

"Sis, hurry up and get in. Don't worry about my driving skills, I'm very steady!"

Watching her younger sister excitedly grip the reins of the carriage, Lin Chunyi sighed:

"Could you move over a bit? I'm not comfortable sitting inside yet. After all, I've only just become a car owner..."

Lin Lanshan pouted, "You don't trust me."

Then, with a heroic roar:

"drive"

The mule galloped forward, and the two sisters were pulled backward by the inertia.

Lin Lanshan almost lost her grip on the rope.

Lin Chunyi hurriedly shouted:

"What are you doing, driving like that! Do you think you're riding a horse on the grasslands? Slow it down! This isn't your big grassland! There are so many people in this city, are you trying to kill someone and go to jail?"

"I... I'm in control, I'm in control..."

Two girls who had never learned to drive a car in modern times acquired their first vehicle in ancient times and gradually learned how to drive it.

"Sister, we're now a family with a house and a car!" Lin Lanshan said proudly.

"Well, actually we also have fields, so we're proper commoners now."

The two sisters drove their mules slowly through the city.

There is no curfew in Yuanfeng County; the city gates are simply opened and closed every morning and evening.

As night fell, lanterns lit up the streets.

The night market is open, with vendors selling snacks, toys, and acrobatics... all sorts of shouts and calls fill the air, making it quite lively.

The two sisters would take turns getting out of the car to buy snacks whenever they saw a vendor selling them, as long as they smelled good and looked pretty.

I buy it, eat a few bites, then put it in the car, and then toss it into storage space.

They passed by Shiweilou and saw a building that was just as magnificent, Jilefang.

Its gate is bustling with traffic, filled with the melodious sounds of traditional Chinese string and wind instruments, and also mingled with the rich fragrance of cosmetics.

Lin Lanshan winked at her sister and whispered:

"Sister, isn't this Paradise Pavilion a brothel? I can smell the perfume from this far away."

Lin Chunyi also stared at the Paradise Pavilion, her eyes full of curiosity. She really wanted to go in and see it for herself.

Brothels are probably a place that most time travelers would like to experience...

"Ladies, come in and have a seat! Our snacks and drinks are the best in town, and we even have fun games!"

The madam, wearing a peach-colored peony silk flower in her hair and with her face powdered, smiled and waved to the two sisters.

Behind her stood several young women dressed in light gauze dresses, striking various poses to attract passing customers.

The two sisters looked somewhat panicked. Lin Chunyi waved her hand and said:

"No, no, no, we've already eaten, so we won't go in. Besides, we're women, it's not appropriate."

The girls behind her covered their mouths and laughed, then moved aside.

The madam laughed:

"Girls can play games too! Look, we have some handsome guys here too!"

It turned out that there were several male prostitutes standing behind the young women, each of them handsome.

Gentle type, aloof type, puppy type, wolf type...

That puppy-like guy was even winking at them!

Lin Chunyi and Lin Lanshan were practically blinded by the sight; they were dressed even less than the women, and just looking at them made them feel cold.

And the skin peeking out from under the gauze dress was much whiter and more delicate than theirs.

Except for that wolfhound type...

Because of his darker complexion, he looked somewhat exotic...

I've learned so much! I've seen enough!

Both sisters felt a little hot in the head. Lin Lanshan even shook her head, closed her eyes, and muttered:

Form is emptiness, emptiness is form...

Lin Chunyi said in a serious tone:

"No, no, we've already eaten. Goodbye, everyone!"

She pulled hard on the reins, and the mule galloped past the Pleasure House in an instant.

It was even faster than Lin Lanshan's "driving" in the afternoon.

Even though the two sisters were quite far from the Paradise Pavilion, they could still hear the cheerful laughter of the people outside...

"Sister, brothels are so open... I feel like those people are practically naked, it's terrifying. If we went in for a meal, we'd be eaten alive... I'm still a minor."

After saying that, he patted his hot cheeks.

Lin Chunyi gripped the reins steadily, driving the mule cart, and said with a meaningful tone:

"I just saw a woman, about twenty years old, go in arm in arm with a handsome male prostitute. My mind immediately conjured up a whole drama: an arranged marriage between two families, each living a life of debauchery. Then one day, they meet again in the same brothel, each with their own beloved. My god, how exciting! How thrilling!"

Lin Lanshan also started to imagine:

"So, will the couple both go home with dark faces, leaving their two beloved children staring at each other and losing a night's worth of business? Or will they pretend not to know each other and take their respective beloved children into their rooms?"

Lin Chunyi added:

"It would be best if the couple chose adjacent rooms, hehehe..."

"Wow, sis, you're so perverted...hehehe..."

The two looked at each other, their smiles extremely lewd.

The number of pedestrians on the street gradually decreased.

They found a nice-looking inn to stay in, and parked the mule cart in the backyard.

The next day, around dawn, the two sisters rushed to several butcher shops.

As expected, there is no beef today.

They bought several kilograms of lean pork, lard, and spare ribs.

It was still dark when they went to the poultry market.

In front of an older woman's stall, chickens, ducks, and geese were chirping and quacking, looking very lively.
