Chapter 336 - Painting
On the other side, just when Xing'er thought she was going to starve to death, the two long-delayed steamed buns were finally delivered to her.
She did not care about anything else and grabbed the steamed bun with her dirty little hands and started to eat it. She looked so miserable that the shopkeeper beside her shook his head.
The shopkeeper wanted to lower his head and continue to count the accounts, but his heart felt itchy and uncomfortable as if it was being scratched by a cat's claws, and he could not help but shift his gaze to the painting of the beauty.
A gust of wind blew the painting to Xing'er's feet as luck would have it. The shopkeeper hurried over to pick it up, then blew away the dust on the painting with heartache.
At this moment, Xing'er just stuffed the last piece of steamed bun into her mouth. Just as she stood up and was about to leave, she saw the painting in Shopkeeper Liu's hand.
"Boss, have you ever seen the person in this painting?" Xing'er excitedly pulled his sleeve.
"You poor little wretch, let go of me now! Do you know how much money I spent on this robe? If you get it dirty, I won't be able to pay for it even if I sell you!" Shopkeeper Liu pushed her hard with disgust, and Xing'er fell to the ground.
"If you tell me where the person in the painting is, this ingot of silver will be yours." Xing'er hurriedly took out a large ingot of silver from her bag.
Shopkeeper Liu leaned over to take it but Xing'er dodged it deftly. He was so angry that he instantly raised his eyebrows and yelled, "You little bitch, you are obviously teasing me!"
Xing'er ignored his anger and just pointed at the person in the painting with her little hand. Her meaning was obvious.
"Listen carefully, the person in the painting is the new girl in Linxian Pavilion! Linxian Pavilion is the tallest and most gorgeous house in the city! That's where rich people go to spend their money, it's not a place for a poor little guy like you to enter!" After he finished speaking, he reached out and poked Xing'er's head.
Seeing that the shopkeeper was still cursing to himself, Xing'er hugged her bag, picked up the silver and ran out quickly.
"You little bastard, you haven't given me your silver yet!" The shopkeeper chased after him regardless of anything else. However, when he reached the door, Xing'er had already ridden away on her horse. He was so angry that he stood there and jumped up and down.
Linxian Pavilion was indeed tall and gorgeous as the shopkeeper had said. Xing'er found it not long after running around the city, but she was thrown out every time she tried to break in.
In Linxian Pavilion, on a bed covered with several layers of soft mattresses in a spacious and luxurious room, a woman in purple brocade clothes was sleeping uneasily, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and she kept murmuring something in her mouth, but no one could hear it clearly.
"Old Xu, can you cure her?" the powdered madam asked anxiously, swinging the silk handkerchief in her hand. She couldn't let this newly acquired cash cow break like this. She had to calculate how long it would take to get her money back if Old Xu couldn't cure the girl.
"Ahua, could you please stop turning? I'm treating this girl right now! Also, you saved her last night, why didn't you ask me to treat her in time?" Doctor Xu was so angry that his beard twitched.
The madam showed an awkward smile. She would never say that she was seduced by the beauty of the girl. She first sent a maid to bathe, fumigate and change clothes for the girl. Then she found a painter to paint a portrait of the girl. She was so busy that she only remembered that she had not called a doctor yet.
Seeing the brothel owner revealing that familiar smile, Doctor Xu rolled his eyes at her unhappily. The first thing that a money-hungry man would think of must be silver.
After a moment, Doctor Xu slowly stood up and frowned, saying, "Ahua, this girl's physical condition is very complicated. I'm afraid your idea of finding a cash cow will be ruined. You have to be mentally prepared."
