I do beauty in Jianghu

"bump!"

There was another loud bang, this time it seemed that a strong servant had changed, and kicked open the small wooden door that was not very strong.

The broken door lock hangs precariously by the door.

A group of people swarmed into the small courtyard. The lady led two tall thugs, walking in the front with high toes, and a group of servants behind them came straight to the door.

Bai Muxi was a little dazed by the startled movement outside, he didn't know which wife came to the door, but seeing the unfriendly attitude of the visitor, he might be beaten again tonight.

Ever since he started selling skin care products, he has often been beaten up by rich servants who misunderstood him as having malicious intentions.

He hurriedly turned around the house, but couldn't find a place to hide. He turned his head and saw the man with the dead body on the bed, and hurried over to pull up the quilt to cover him.

It's nothing if he's not sick or in trouble, but this person is already injured, if he is beaten again, his soul will die.

As a result, as soon as he covered the people with his front feet, the house door was kicked open by the servants on his back feet. Several fierce servants rushed in and dragged him into the yard involuntarily.

Compared with these strong servants, Bai Muxi has no power to fight back.

A servant who came out from behind saw someone on the bed with his sharp eyes, and immediately shouted: "Ma'am! There is still someone on the bed inside!"

The lady said coldly: "Find them out together!"

So before Bai Muxi could exit to stop him, a few more people rushed in and dragged the half-dead man on the bed out together. The man didn't respond, so they dragged him casually.

Bai Muxi was also too busy to take care of herself at the moment, and was dragged dizzy by the rude servants, and was forced to kneel in front of the lady.

The lady looked down at him condescendingly, and said in a contemptuous tone, "He is quite handsome, no wonder he dared to come to the door alone."

Bai Muxi accompanied her with a smile: "Madam, have you misunderstood something? I'm a man, what do I need to look good for? I'm just a seller of makeup, and I go to anyone's house just to sell makeup and earn some living money. Absolutely nothing else."

The lady didn't think so, she leaned slightly, with contempt in her eyes: "With good looks, it's easy to climb high, after all, men's style is prevalent in the south of the Yangtze River, and a little boy like you who puts on makeup all day long, come and tell me you see my master, Let him be frivolous for a long time, just to sell these dozens of taels of pearl ointment, do you think I believe it?"

The house slave next to him chimed in: "What Ma'am said is that this rouge gouache is everywhere in the street. For small self-developed and self-made small businesses like yours, a box of pearl ointment is too expensive for four or five taels. How dare you sell it for dozens of taels?" , I really don’t know whether what you are selling is makeup or body.”

The house slaves burst into laughter.

Bai Muxi lowered his head and smiled, but the smile was very bitter. He probably guessed that the person in front of him was the wife of Boss Yu during the day. This Mrs. Yu was notoriously tough and violent.

Bai Muxi didn't dare to offend, so she had no choice but to say dryly: "I really don't have the intention of being high-ranking, and besides, even if I sell my frail body, I'm afraid I can't sell it for a few dozen taels a night. Qunfang, how could she be interested in a low-grade person like me."

He originally intended to beg for mercy, but that sentence of looking at the crowd pierced the lady's eyes. When he thought that his husband was so hungry that he even became interested in such a low-level little boy in front of him, he couldn't help feeling resentful, but he didn't want to be in public. Acknowledging that the husband-in-law he had chosen was so low-quality, he simply raised his chin and gave the servants a wink.

beat!

Anyway, she didn't come here to reason, she came here to teach others.

Bai Muxi immediately hugged his head, followed by a rain of punches and kicks.

The group of servants beat Bai Muxi very vigorously, but after kicking the other person a few times, they stopped strangely.

"died?"

They approached the man, brushed away his messy hair, and saw him lying on the ground with blank eyes, being slaughtered. The servants were a little puzzled, and looked up at the lady, asking her to indicate whether to continue beating.

Seeing that the man's face was covered with scars and he was weak, the lady was already very miserable. She didn't want to kill anyone, so she signaled to beat Bai Muxi only.

So more fists and kicks greeted Bai Muxi, Bai Muxi couldn't hold back, and begged the lady for mercy.

Seeing his unlucky and funny appearance, the noble lady calmed down a little, so she told the servants to stop, and said triumphantly: "Since you said that it is useless for a man to be beautiful, then my lady will give you a lesson for this little boy. Please be vigilant, and stop doing such brazen things in the future."

After she finished speaking, the servants set up Bai Muxi with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and the biggest thug pulled out a dagger from his waist, and slowly approached Bai Muxi.

The lady said coldly: "You choose, is this knife a face or a hand?"

Bai Muxi's face was black and blue from the beating. At first, he felt aggrieved, but now he was beaten to his fate. Looking at the sharp dagger that was shining with a cold light, he clenched his teeth and said, "Slash, slap your face."

The thug sneered, and gestured the blade towards Bai Muxi's fair and thin face, from his forehead to his chin, and turned to ask his wife if the length was enough. The lady nodded, and then the cold blade stuck to Bai Muxi's forehead.

Bai Muxi was trembling with fear, but he didn't dare to struggle. His life was worthless, and the end of his struggle might be accidentally stabbed to death by impatient thugs. When the body was taken to the county government, no one complained for him. Now he can only close his eyes I hope the servant will not hit too hard, and don't scratch his eyes and nose, so that it is not too expensive to find a doctor for treatment.

But he closed his eyes and waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the pain to come. He opened his eyes nervously, and saw the sharp knife hanging in front of his eyes at a fist's distance.

There was a dead silence in the courtyard.

The lady was taken aback, and backed away slightly, and the servants behind her surrounded the lady vigilantly.

No one could clearly see when the half-dead man who was lying on the ground just now stood up, and when he came to the thug's side. When they saw clearly, the thug's wrist, which was about to drop the blade, was grasped.

The speed is not fast, but the strength is very steady. After holding it, the thug's hand holding the knife cannot move.

The thug was stunned for a moment, and wanted to break free, but he didn't expect him to struggle for a while, but he couldn't move at all.

Seeing that the thug was at a disadvantage, the lady behind asked another thug to help, but the sweaty thug suddenly gestured backwards, signaling his companion to retreat, and at the same time relieved his struggling strength .

He conceded.

Seeing that the thug had lost his strength, the person who stopped him didn't intend to continue to make things difficult, so he let go of his hand and let him retreat.

Bai Muxi looked dazed, watching the lady and her group get together, staring at this half-dead man not long ago as if facing a formidable enemy, staring at the man who was half-dead not long ago, during which time he tried to relapse twice, but was caught by the retreating man. The thugs who went back persuaded them, and a group of people muttered for a long time, and finally left angrily, even forgetting to let go of the cruel words before leaving.

Seeing that group of men approaching menacingly, and now inexplicably retreating in desperation, Bai Muxi was stunned for a long time before he realized, staring at the man in the middle of the yard with a face of disbelief, who looked around and was about to go back to the house to continue lifting the corpse .

Bai Muxi couldn't believe it: "You...you can stop them, but you see them beat me up!"

For the first time in ten days, the man reacted to his words. He turned his head and glanced at Bai Muxi, and said in a hoarse and low voice that he hadn't spoken for many days: "There's nothing wrong with being beaten up if you seduce someone's husband-in-law."

Bai Muxi was angry: "I didn't seduce her husband! I just went to sell skin care products! It's her husband who belittled me!"

The man let out an oh indifferently.

Bai Muxi became even angrier, and chased him and said, "It's true! I swear to God! Her husband looks like a rogue-headed mouse, and I would only want to seduce him if I am blind! I——I just don't want her to touch her." I offended him and got kicked out!"

The man's footsteps paused, and his tone was cold: "Then if he is good-looking, you will want to seduce him?"

Bai Muxi: "..."

Bai Muxi was stunned for a moment, and then furious: "I'm a man, and I'm a serious man inside and out! I'm not as good as Long Yang! Even if I'm hungry, I won't want to seduce a man, man Beauty or ugliness makes no difference in my eyes! No difference!!!”

The man asked back, "Then why don't you explain?"

Bai Muxi's eyes widened: "Is it useful for me to explain? Is it useful for resistance? I have said so much before, but people don't listen to me at all, they just beat me up, and I can't beat them, even if I go to the Yamen with this injury Tell me, the official will not pay attention to me!"

As Bai Muxi talked, he felt it was ridiculous, and said in a low voice: "No one likes to bury people like us after death."

The man seemed to have never encountered this kind of thing before. He was a little surprised by what he said. He stood and thought for a while, and felt that it made sense. After a long silence, he whispered: "Sorry."

Bai Muxi hit his own sad spot, was sad, and was suddenly apologized by him, he couldn't react, just because he heard the apology, he subconsciously said: "No, it's nothing, it's nothing, you... oh..."

Now that he recovered, his face and body were in severe pain, so he stopped talking nonsense with men, and went into the house to search for ointment for bruises in the medicine cabinet.

The man stood at the door for a while, instead of going in to lie down, he sat down on the stone steps in front of the door, looking up at the night in a trance.

"Hiss..." Bai Muxi in the room bared his teeth as he applied the medicine, his back was in burning pain, and he didn't dare to stretch his arms back. He couldn't touch the wound after several attempts, so he could only hold a few medicines. Bottle stood up and went to the door to call the man who was still in a trance.

"Hey, can you put some medicine on me, I can't reach my back by myself."

The man turned his head and glanced at him, it was nothing to refuse, since he had already got up, there was no need to continue pretending to be dead, so the man reached out to take the medicine bottle, Bai Muxi immediately walked up to him and squatted down, putting the Pull up the clothes and let him apply the medicine.

Under the dim light, Bai Muxi's back was thin and thin, and the blue and purple scars were very conspicuous on the fair skin. Once the cold ointment was applied, Bai Muxi was in pain, and couldn't help muttering and complaining, Complaining that the man didn't act early, causing him to suffer in vain.

The man didn't respond to this. After taking the medicine, he ignored him. Bai Muxi called him a few words but didn't respond, and he ignored him when he asked him to go back to bed. Feeling angry, Bai Muxi closed the door and climbed into bed by herself Go to bed and throw him the floor mat that was made.

Love to sleep or not to sleep.

In the end, because of the pain in his body, he tossed and turned in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep well. When he opened his eyes, the floor next to him was still empty.
