The brothels~houses of the Tang Dynasty were very different from those of later generations, first of all, there were official prostitutes and private prostitutes.

Official prostitutes are supported by the government and receive a fixed salary and rice every month. Officials recruit official prostitutes, as long as there is a valid reason, they do not need to spend money at all. The most commonly used reason is to entertain guests in the name of the government.

As for private prostitutes, the scale of brothels~ houses is not large.

Including Pingkang Lane in Chang'an, generally a brothel ~ house is an old ~ bustard and four or five prostitutes ~ women. All brothels~ houses don't have any signboards, they are named after the old ~ bustard.

Yang Siniang's family has eight prostitutes ~ women, and three popular prostitutes, and they dominate the private brothel in Yangzhou.

Although Yangzhou has Yangzhou Thorn History Yamen and Yangzhou Dadu Governor's Mansion, Jiangdu County Yamen is the main manager of the brothel ~ hospital after all, so Cui Geng and his party went to Yang Siniang's house and received a relatively warm reception.

"Fake mother" Yang Siniang said hello, and Xin Liuniang and Yu Miaoer went out to pick up the guests.

Now the question is, Cui Geng's party is nearly twenty people, just two prostitutes, who should accompany this?

Could it be that Cui Geng, the main master, hugged left and right, and everyone else drooled dryly?

In fact, although such high-ranking prostitutes also accompany them, they mainly do not rely on their beauty to serve people, but on ...... Talent.

Tang gatherings, whether they are literati or coarse drinkers, must be subject to a drinking order, and the difference is nothing more than a literary wine order or a martial wine order.

The role of the high-ranking prostitute is to be a "seat correction".

It is up to them to decide who wins and who loses, who should be punished for drinking, and how much.

It is necessary to be witty, humorous, reasonable, and well-founded, so that people can obediently admit punishment and not be resentful at all; Be elegant, quick-witted, and have a warm atmosphere, so that everyone doesn't feel left out. This is the job of a high-class prostitute.

As the saying goes, "the new chapter of the clever system is patted new, and the golden patrol helps the spirit." I always want to get a cross wave, and I am afraid that I will return to the wrong person".

However, there are too few women in this world who combine beauty and talent. A prostitute is the first talent, and the beauty is generally ...... It's a little bit worse.

Therefore, after seeing the true faces of Xin Liuniang and Yu Miaoer, Song Genhai and other buns with no connotation couldn't help but be disappointed.

Although Cui Geng doesn't want to admit it, he is really also from the Appearance Association. Nima's, the sister paper is not good-looking, and no matter how talented he is, he really can't be interested.

After a few drinking orders, Song Genhai took the opportunity to launch a drunken madness, shouting: "Hurry up and find Xue Panpan and drink with my family!" How? If she can accompany Meng Shenshuang, can't she accompany my family? Go and tell Yang Siniang, your restaurant is under the direct management of Jiangdu County, do you still want to open it? ”

"That's right, ask Xue Panpan to come out!" Yongguang and others also coaxed.

Xin Liuniang and Yu Miaoer's faces were not very good-looking, so they had to invite Yang Siniang over.

Yang Siniang's charm still exists, first glanced at Song Genhai, and then gave Cui Geng a slight blessing, and said: "Cui County Order, it's really unfortunate, my family Panpan occasionally feels the wind and cold, and can't see outsiders." Why don't you come back another day? ”

Cui Geng ignored her, but picked up the wine cup in front of the table and took a sip of it.

Song Genhai, the first dog leg who comprehended, slapped the table and shouted: "Okay, you old man who doesn't know how to lift~ Bustard, race your face, right?" Then Meng Shenshuang is here, do you want to ask him to come back another day. I'm afraid it's not that Xue Panpan occasionally feels cold, but he doesn't want to come to see my family, right? ”

Boom!

Song Genhai's voice fell, and Cui Geng also slammed the wine glass on the table.

Yang Siniang is best at this kind of stormy place, what he is best at is to observe words and look at the thoughts of the gold owner, and he also feels that the young but already Jiangdu County parents in front of him, Master Cui, is already very, very unhappy!

She was so frightened that she stumbled in her heart, and said: "The little woman is wronged, Panpan is now taking advantage of Meng Shenshuang's momentum, and she doesn't take the slave family in her eyes at all." Please also ask Cui County Ling to raise his noble hand, don't be embarrassed for the slave family. ”

As she spoke, she squeezed out a few tears.

"Young fucking pretending to be pitiful, I don't want to eat your set!" Song Genhai rolled up his sleeves and looked like a pranky Lai Han, "Believe it or not, Lao Tzu dismantled your ......"

"Ahem, alright!"

Cui Daxian ordered to stop Song Genhai with a wave of his hand, and said to Yang Siniang: "Forget it, it's none of your business, retreat." ”

"Xie Cui County Order." Yang Siniang turned around and left as if she had been pardoned.

"My lord, why don't you let her go ......" Before Song Genhai finished speaking, he was gently dragged by Yao Du's arm.

was embarrassed by a prostitute, and although Xin Liuniang's witty words were like pearls, everyone couldn't have any fun.

Yongguang just stood in line with Cui Geng, and tonight he came to Yang Siniang to drink flower wine, and the first errand was messed up, so he naturally felt that his face was dull, and said: "My lord, you wait, Yong wants to find a way." ”

"Yes, my lord, you wait!"

After speaking, Yongguang got up and ran out of Yang Siniang's house.

The effort was not large, and Yongguang's roar came from the street, "Li Ya, you come out for Lao Tzu!" Lao Tzu is looking for you in a hurry! ”

Li Ya?

That's a familiar name!

Cui Geng suddenly remembered that Yongguang had said this name during the day, and it seemed that his unsuccessful son-in-law was called Li Ya.

"Flutter~~"

"Hahaha......"

Suddenly, Xia Rong, the chief secretary of the county government, and the gang of officials in Jiangdu County laughed out loud.

Cui Geng was puzzled, looked at Xia Rong, the master book beside him, and asked, "What is Xia Master Shu laughing at?" What's so ridiculous about this son-in-law of Yongxian County? ”

Xia Rong shook the feather fan lightly, and said compassionately: "Alas, this has to start from the previous life of this pair of Weng sons-in-law......"

"Stop! How can you still talk about ghosts and gods in the past and present lives? ”

Cui Geng raised his hand and said, "Lord Xia, as the head of a county, opens his mouth and closes his mouth to talk about those things that the gods are talking about, and the county really doesn't like it." ”

"Ha, Lord County forgiveness, a slip of the tongue, Haihan Haihan! To say that this Yongxian Lieutenant and his son-in-law Li Ya are really happy enemies! Words ......"

Immediately, Xia Rong told the wonderful story of the Yongjia and the son-in-law.

In Yongguang's life, there are two things that lead to regrets!

The first thing is that he has no children under his knees and only one daughter.

The second thing is that he is illiterate and blind.

In order to make up for these two shortcomings, he decided to find a good son-in-law for his daughter, to be filial to himself, preferably a scholar.

Don't look at Yongguang, who is five big and three thick, but his daughter can really handle it, Zhen Shou'e is graceful and graceful, and she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there is an endless stream of people who come to ask for marriage.

In the end, Yongguang was dazzled and chose Li Ya to be his son-in-law.

This son-in-law looks good on the surface, he can be regarded as a talented man in Yangzhou, and his family is very rich, and he is also very generous to Yongguang, and he gives gifts a lot.

But after getting married, he exposed two stinky problems.

One is that Li Ya likes prostitution. Supposedly, it's nothing, who doesn't like beauty? But this one is good, and he doesn't know moderation at all. Thirty days a month, he could spend twenty-five days in a brothel~ house. It is precisely because of this that Li Ya has become a prostitute expert in Yangzhou. He said that whichever prostitute ~ woman is better, which prostitute ~ woman will be worth twice. He said that whichever prostitute ~ woman is not good, which prostitute ~ woman will be worth a lot less.

The second is that Li Ya, as a son-in-law, does not have much respect for his father-in-law, Yongguang. Li Ya thinks that this old man is uneducated and unworthy of being his father-in-law, so he directly calls him "Yonglao" every time he sees him.

The title of a certain old man is completely a panacea, as long as it is for an elderly person, even if it is a pawn of a peddler, even if it is a stranger, it can be called so.

Yong Lao?

Yong's old egg!

Every time he hears this title, Yongguang has the heart to strangle this son-in-law.

Cui Geng was puzzled when he heard this, and said: "Since the county lieutenant of Yongxian thinks that Li Ya and his daughter are not suitable, can't they just let them and his wife reconcile?" ”

Xia Rong shook his head again and again, and said, "I can't leave!" Can't leave! Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, how can Yongxian Lieutenant be willing to harm his daughter? ”

"Uh...... Didn't you say that Li Ya loves to visit Qing~ Building? Let his daughter leave Li Ya's prostitute, where is it to harm her? ”

"It's weird." Xia Rong smashed his mouth and said: "Although Li Ya loves prostitutes, he is in harmony with the daughter of the county lieutenant of Yong, and he lives a harmonious and beautiful life. ”

Cui Geng was shocked and asked, "What?" How is this possible? Li Ya is not at home every day, can they still be harmonious and beautiful in their little days? ”

"Xia Guan didn't say that Li Ya was not home all day!"

Xia Rong said: "What Xia Guan said is that Li Ya has to spend the night outside for more than 20 days a month. During the day, this guy accompanies his daughter-in-law at home. The husband and wife chanted poems, raised their eyebrows, and lived a small life, not to mention how moisturizing they were. ”

"It's... This Li Ya's way of being a royal wife is quite good! Cui Geng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said: "Could it be that Yongguang's daughter is as ugly as no salt, so she can't do without Li Ya?" ”

"Of course not. Didn't Xia Guan just say it? The daughter of the lieutenant of Yongxian County is graceful and graceful, and there are more people who ask for marriage when she is not married. Hehe, Li Ya is this virtue, and he likes to spend the night with different women in his life to find fun. But he can still coax the good wife of the family to be docile and respectful, in the eyes of the lower officials, this kid is amazing, a bit of a Taoist! ”

Isn't this a typical "colorful flags fluttering outside, but red flags at home don't fall"?

Cui Geng now finally understands why Yongguang has no love. Who can put such an unlucky son-in-law on the table and not be upset?

No need to ask, when he went out of the county office during the day today, he must have been angry with Li Ya again.

Dengden~~

Just as Cui Geng was thinking wildly, a heavy footstep came.

Everyone looked up and saw that Yongguang had a man in his right arm and stepped in.

Puff~~

"Oops!"

Li Ya was thrown to the ground, howled miserably, and said: "I said Yonglao, you light, I am dead, and your daughter will have to be widowed!" ”

"Widowhood? Stay a fart! When you die, my daughter will remarry immediately. She wants money, she wants money, she wants to look good, and there are more people who want to marry her! The sooner you bastard dies, the better! ”

"Don't mind!" Li Ya got up like a hob and said, "Hey, old man, can't you look forward to something good?" These days, my son-in-law hasn't offended you! ”

The worldview of the two is completely inconsistent, and they are not on the same channel when they speak, Yongguang is too lazy to argue with him now, and shouts: "Don't make noise!" Not to mention those who have and don't, come, hurry up and help me do something. It's okay if it's done well, it's okay to do it badly, hum ......"

Swish!

As he spoke, he pulled out his waist knife.

Li Ya suddenly shrank back and said in fear: "You...... What do you want to do? ”

"Don't worry, I won't kill you!" Yongguang rested the waist knife on his left arm, bared his teeth and said: "See, as long as Lao Tzu slides down, this will be even if you Li Ya beat your father-in-law!" Where is this lawsuit going all over the world, you Li Ya also have to marry my daughter! ”

"I'm grass, you're a scoundrel!" Li Ya was aggrieved.

According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, there is a situation in which a husband and wife must divorce, and that is "righteousness". For example, the husband insults or hurts the wife's parents, the wife hurts or insults the husband's parents, the two relatives have a vendetta against each other, and so on.

If Yongguang really made up his mind to frame him, Li Ya really didn't have any good way.

He hurriedly dissuaded: "Don't don't, why should Yong Lao be like this? What do you say, what can I do? ”

"Okay, you can come forward now and let Xue Panpan come out to see Cui County's order."

"Which Cui County Order?"

"That's it, our new county magistrate of Jiangdu County, Cui Gengcui county magistrate!"

"Uh... I've seen the county lord..."Li Ya looked embarrassed and said: "It's not that the son-in-law deliberately shirks it, it's really beyond his strength." Xue Panpan is already famous in Yangzhou. Unfounded, my dirty methods are not easy to use in front of her. ”

"Then I don't care!" Yongguang shook his arm very strongly, and threatened: "Either Xue Panpan comes out today, or you and my daughter are divorced, you can choose one of yourself!" ”

"That'...... I'll try! ”

Li Ya was forced to have no choice, so he asked Sibao to write a note and handed it to the maid standing on the side, and said, "Please give this thing to the little lady Panpan, and be sure to ask her to come out and meet Cui Xianling." ”

"Yes!"

The little maid went very quickly and came back quickly, and she replied without giving face at all, and said: "My little lady said, what is the Cui County order?" Haven't heard of it, don't see it! ”

, so faceless?

Everyone was amazed!

Feng Changqing pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "What's the big deal, a brothel stinky hooves are just a shelf, who can show it to a fart?" I don't want to see her yet. You must know how many Qing~Lou women in the world, if you want to see Cui Feijiang, you can't get a mile, and it is her own loss not to see it. ”

Li Ya's heart moved when he heard this, and asked, "What... Cui Feijiang? ”
