404 Elder Brother Siming, You’re Too Much of A Prodigal
Gu Nuo’er blinked her round eyes. Her gaze was clear and her watery eyes were lively and cute.
“I’m actually here this time for the batch of older sisters you bought a few days ago! One of them is very unwilling to stay. Is that true?”
In order to protect the female courtesans who had revealed the news to her, Gu Nuo’er told a harmless lie.
When the procuress heard this, a trace of uneasiness flashed across her eyes.
“This…”
Gu Nuo’er reached into her pocket, grabbed something, took it out, and slapped it on the table.
“Here, this is for you. You can say it now!”
When the procuress saw her swift actions, she thought that Gu Nuo’er had given her a big silver ingot.
However, when she took a closer look, she saw that it was a pear that had yet to be eaten.
The procuress laughed dryly. “Miss, this…”
Then, there was another muffled thud.
The procuress turned around.
The cold and arrogant youth who had been sitting silently at the side just now actually placed a silver ingot on the table.
He looked at the procuress coldly. “You can speak now.”
The procuress quickly put the silver ingot away.
She smiled so widely that her face bloomed.
“Oh my, esteemed guests, you’re treating me like an outsider. You must be asking about that wretched girl, Ning Chudie, right?
“Her family used to be in the jade business. Later on, the business lost money and her family’s situation plummeted. Her father couldn’t take the blow and knocked his head against the wall.
“As for her mother, she had been sick for a long time. Later on, they didn’t have the money to buy medicine and her mother passed away. She was left behind by herself and had to sell herself in order to bury her grandmother.
“However, she doesn’t keep her word. I gave her money for the burial. When she returned to the brothel, she actually refused to receive guests!”
The more the procuress spoke, the more dissatisfied she became.
She rolled her eyes at the sky. “She kept saying that she thought that she could just perform. That’s too ridiculous. She really is a young miss who knows very little about the world.
“If our Soft Fragrance Jade does not engage in such businesses and only relies on selling talents and performances, how much money can we earn each month?”
After saying that, the procuress looked at the two children in front of her.
She then put on a smile again.
“However, Miss, why are you asking about her?”
Gu Nuo’er’s pink lips were soft. “Of course I want to take her away.”
“Take her away?! That won’t do. I spent 20 taels of silver on her!”
Gu Nuo’er pouted. “But didn’t my brother give you a big silver ingot just now? That was a total of 50 taels.
“Originally, I thought that if you had eaten my pear, I would consider whatever price you offered. Unfortunately, you accepted the silver ingot in advance.”
The child patted off the pastry crumbs in her hand.
“Bring that Elder Sister Ning over now.”
The procuress’s expression changed. “Miss, you mustn’t joke with this servant about this.”
One ingot of silver was a lot, but who wouldn’t want more?
However, Gu Nuo’er looked up with her black and clear eyes. She was a small person with a dignified aura.
“Why? Are you going back on your word after receiving the money? Have you forgotten what I told you just now? I haven’t asked you for the change yet!”
The procuress stiffened.
She sized up the little girl in front of her and the youth beside her who didn’t look like someone to be trifled with.
It wasn’t worth it. It wasn’t good to offend a guest with a powerful background for Ning Chudie.
Ning Chudie was too stubborn. She refused to accede even after being beaten up a few times.
She might as well give her to the girl directly!
The procuress could only put the money into her pocket and say with a smile, “Miss, wait a moment. I’ll get someone to bring her over now.”
After saying that, she left.
Gu Nuo’er jumped off the stool and walked up to Ye Siming.
She sighed in a childish voice. “Elder Brother Siming, you’re too much of a prodigal. You gave away money so quickly. Baby Nuo is anxious for you!”
