"Have you heard? The Eldest Young Master of the Li Family got out of jail!"
"Yeah! I heard that as well, he was saved by the Second Young Master of the Li Family, he really has a good brother now."
"From what I know, the Second Young Master has been diligently working for the Li Family these past years. He took care of everything when old Mr. Li passed away, and is now managing the Dongfeng Restaurant quite efficiently."
"I heard the Second Young Master asked his older brother to return to the Li Family, but the Eldest Young Master wasn’t grateful and ran off with a Little Maid! Do you find that ridiculous or not?"
Li Fugui had become a popular topic of conversation after meals; Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming could easily find out about Li Fugui’s recent situation without asking.
Learning that Li Fugui was out, Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, Li Fugui was saved from being conscripted into the army.
If they were to save him, they truly wouldn’t be capable of doing anything; they were just ordinary farmers who had no connection to the government office. It was already impressive they could help with the compensation issue.
But what was this about running off with a Little Maid?
"Yang Ming, what’s this about a Little Maid?"
"I only know a little bit!"
"Out with it!" Xiaoxiao was in the mood for gossip. This bargain husband doesn’t talk much in a day, but he seems to know quite a lot!
"He seems to have a childhood sweetheart, one of their servants. Li Fugui seems to really like that maid of theirs, and he didn’t even get married by the age of twenty because of her."
"..." Is this... could he be a romantic? That Li Fugui? She found it so hard to believe! A rich Young Master who was always so insouciant, so arrogant in his speech, with his nose in the air, seemed like the epitome of stubborn youth, "Is this true?"
"It seems to be true. I heard that when his friends went out to have fun, he never went to places like the Brothel! Plus, there haven’t been any occasions where he was seen interacting too much with any young ladies."
"..." She seemed to catch onto a word and immediately asked, "Have you been to a Brothel?"
"..." What’s with his wife now? They were clearly talking about Li Fugui, and now the conversation turned to him, "No, I have not."
"Are the girls in the Brothel pretty? What about their figures? And their chests, are they big?"
"..." What’s with all these questions from his wife? So forthright in the middle of the street, it’s quite awkward, and besides, he has never been there. He doesn’t even dare to look at his own wife, how could he look at anyone else?
In fact, Xiaoxiao was just thinking, the people in this place are so conservative, making bras and underwear might not have a market here, but the women in a Brothel are different, they rely on that for a living! Maybe she could start from this aspect to open up a market.
But unexpectedly, Yang Ming didn’t respond, and only then did she realize, could it be that he was thinking about the women in the Brothel? She suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Xiaoxiao: "Did you really go there?"
Yang Ming: "I didn’t!"
Xiaoxiao: "You’re lying!"
Yang Ming: "I’m not lying to you!"
Xiaoxiao: "I don’t believe you!"
Yang Ming: "I don’t even dare to look at you, how would I dare to look at anyone else?"
Upon reflection, her bargain husband wouldn’t even dare to look at her arm and didn’t even know about her monthly cycle; surely, he wouldn’t go to such a place.
She felt inexplicably very cheerful and tugged at Yang Ming, "Let’s go! We’re going to the Bookstore!"
"..." Yang Ming was utterly confused; his wife’s mood changed faster than the weather.
So, off they went to the Bookstore. As soon as they entered, they saw the scene of Li Fugui being humiliated by several scholars. Yang Ming wanted to step forward, but was stopped by his wife. They quietly moved aside and witnessed the entire ordeal.
