Chapter 193 Compensation
"No.
You should save this excellent service for the next distinguished guest!
Judging from Qin Baihe's words, Wei Haitang realized that Qin Baihe might have found out that she had gone into the wrong room.
Is she threatening me by saying this?
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Qin Xue and Wu Linglong exchanged a glance.
I don't understand how Wei Haitang ended up clashing with Qin Baihe.
When they first arrived, everything seemed fine. It was just a disagreement, but there was no real commotion!
Never mind, it's probably Wei Haitang who can't stand Qin Baihe's status as a prostitute!
The three of them boarded the carriage that was waiting at the door.
Qin Xue and Wu Linglong saw that Wei Haitang looked unwell, so they didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing the somber atmosphere inside the carriage, Wu Linglong lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside.
After calming down, Wei Haitang realized that her response had been too hasty.
She was so provoked by Qin Baihe that she lost her mind.
This is so inappropriate.
After regaining her senses, she saw herself looking out at the curtain that Wu Linglong had lifted.
That one glance was enough to make her lose her composure.
"Sister Wei, what's wrong?"
Seeing Wei Haitang's dazed expression, Qin Xue followed her gaze and looked outside.
But then they saw a simply dressed but handsome young man looking in their direction from in front of the steamed bun shop.
Wow, what a handsome young man!
Wu Linglong praised her.
"Quickly, quickly lower the curtain."
Wei Haitang said in a panic.
He must have seen himself.
I never expected to run into the boy who had just served me on the street.
"Sister Wei, what's wrong?"
Seeing Wei Haitang's unusual behavior, Qin Xue and Wu Linglong became suspicious of her reaction.
“No, nothing.
I'm just feeling a little unwell; I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
Seeing Wei Haitang's appearance, and recalling her conversation with Qin Baihe just now, Qin Xue...
Her slightly lowered eyes flickered.
In a large courtyard in the capital city.
The boy was summoned to the main room.
"Du Yu, tell me, is the customer you are serving today a beautiful young lady from an official family?"
She also has a beauty mark under her left eye?
Du Yu was filled with surprise and doubt.
However, he dared not lie to the person who controlled his destiny.
"Yes, Steward Qin."
After hearing Du Yu's affirmative answer, Qin Baihe felt reassured.
How is your brother?
"Reporting to Steward Qin, the doctor just came to check on him, and he has regained consciousness..."
My younger brother's illness was something he was born with.
The doctor said it was incurable and advised him to give up treatment.
But his younger brother is his only family in the world, and he won't give up on him.
Qin Baihe looked at him.
"Here is fifty taels of silver, take it."
"Buy your brother some medicine and some good food!"
Du Yu looked up at Qin Baihe.
"Isn't this bad?"
He didn't complete his task today, but Steward Qin...
"Take this! This is your advance payment for your wages."
Qin Baihe knew that Du Yu's younger brother was his weakness.
Once she understands his weaknesses, the boy will obey her.
Of all these young male prostitutes, Du Yu had the most exquisite appearance, but he was also the most difficult to win over.
We had to coax him to entertain guests for quite some time before.
He finally managed to leave the mountain today, but he never expected to be stood up by a noble lady.
Although Wei Haitang got involved, fortunately nothing serious happened.
Seeing that Du Yu had taken her money, Qin Baihe said softly, "You can go down now!"
The distinguished guest has changed the time.
"I'll have someone call you over next time she comes."
Du Yu nodded bitterly and then withdrew.
Watching the boy's departing figure, Qin Baihe's lips curled slightly.
What she said to Wei Haitang today was actually a veiled warning.
If she's mentally sound, she wouldn't be foolish enough to report them.
Imagine if she, a young, unmarried woman, reported the affairs of Wei Garden.
At that time, she will not only lose her reputation and be unable to get married, but also...
That would also implicate the women in her family, who would all be branded with a tainted reputation.
Even more serious is...
At that time, her family will probably offend those noble ladies, and even the powerful officials, because of this.
If she had any sense, she wouldn't have done something that would result in a lose-lose situation.
Therefore, Qin Baihe wasn't too worried.
The carriage carrying the three finally returned to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence.
After getting off the bus, Qin Xue saw Wei Haitang walking quickly towards Qiu Xinyuan.
She quickly stepped forward and grabbed her.
"Sister Wei, where are you going?"
Wei Haitang glared at her fiercely.
"Qin Xue, let me go, I have something to do with He Yuyan."
Qin Xue didn't listen to her, but whispered to her, "Sister Wei, if you believe me..."
Let's talk about it in our room.
She had noticed something was wrong with Wei Haitang while they were in the carriage.
Although she was unaware of what had happened to Wei Haitang.
But judging from the way Qin Baihe and Wei Haitang were talking, she felt that something was amiss.
After the two returned to the house.
Wei Haitang didn't shy away from the truth and downplayed what she had discovered in the West Third House.
Of course, she also skipped over the fact that she had been touched and massaged by a man.
"what?"
Qin Xue originally thought it was just a small matter, but she never expected it to be such a big deal.
"Sister Wei, do you mean that Wei Garden is not actually a simple beauty salon?"
Or was it a brothel catering specifically to the wealthy ladies of the capital?
Seeing Qin Xue's astonishment, Wei Haitang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She can't be the only one who has to bear the fear.
Qin Xue and the others also went to Wei Garden.
If the truth about the brothel, Wei Yuan, is discovered, they may not be able to protect their reputations.
"What to do now?"
If this gets out, anyone who has worked on projects at Weiyuan will likely be implicated and lose their reputation.
Those noblewomen were alright, after all, they were already married.
At most, she would only suffer from her husband's neglect for a period of time.
Of course, those of lower status may be dismissed.
Those whose maternal families have high social standing will probably not be affected at all.
But these unmarried young women will likely face a terrible fate.
The two discussed the matter for a long time inside the house, but failed to come up with a suitable solution.
Biyunting.
Wu Weiwei sat in the seat of honor.
Lin Fan and Pang Tuo sat at the lower end of the table.
Looking at the contract Lin Fan brought, Wu Weiwei's eyes lit up.
"Lin Fan, are you saying that I can use this contract now?"
"Are you trying to force Ma Hongmao to transfer his 10,000-mu medicinal herb garden in Huizhou to me?"
Lin Fan nodded.
"Yes, Ma Hongmao failed to deliver the goods on time as stipulated in the contract."
According to the contract, he is required to compensate you tenfold for your losses!
Hearing Lin Fan's words, Wu Weiwei suddenly felt invigorated.
ten times!
According to the contract, ten times the amount of two million taels of silver would be twenty million taels.
