The Peerless Servant

Huo Chenan followed the woman to her home. Along the way, he learned that her name was Qin Wushuang, and she was a famous courtesan in Jinling.

In Hongxiu Pavilion, Miss Wushuang was famous not only for her beauty, but also for her double-peer reputation. People often praised her skills by saying that a piece of pipa music could make people cry, and a needle and thread could embroider the rivers and lakes.

Relying on the two unique skills of pipa and embroidery, Miss Wushuang soon became the most popular courtesan in Jinling.

But because she only sold her art but not her body, countless dignitaries coveted her, and seeing her every day was like a hundred claws on their hearts.

But Miss Wushuang already had a lover, and all the flatterers could not win her heart. No one could become her lover.

But those people were not dead, and they said that there was only a thief for a hundred days, but no one could guard against thieves for a hundred days. The pressure brought to her by those people still forced Miss Wushuang to become a good woman.

After spending all her savings to redeem herself, and losing the income from the brothel's patrons, Miss Wushuang had no choice but to sell some embroidery to make a living. Although her life was a little poor, she was finally a good woman, quietly waiting for her beloved to come back and marry her after passing the imperial examination. There was some hope in her life.

At this point, Miss Wushuang blushed with shame, her eyes full of expectation.

"So Wushuang is your stage name? What is your real name?" Huo Chenan asked casually.

"My real name is Qin Xianglian." Miss Wushuang replied.

"Ahem," Huo Chenan almost choked to death on his saliva when he heard this name. He asked carefully, "Your beloved is not called Chen Shimei, right?"

Wushuang's face obviously blushed when he heard this name, and then he asked anxiously, "Mr. Huo, do you know Mr. Chen? I wonder how he is doing?"

Uh, Huo Chenan was really speechless. I hope the Chen Shimei in this world will not let down Miss Wushuang in front of him.

"I haven't seen him, I don't know him, I'm not familiar with him." Huo Chenan denied three times.

"What a pity, I haven't heard from Master Chen for a long time." Qin Wushuang couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

As he spoke, Qin Wushuang led Huo Chenan into the house.

Huo Chenan was dumbfounded when he entered the house. At this moment, he deeply realized what it meant to be penniless and have nothing. Except for the basic tables, chairs and benches, the furnishings in the house were really bare.

Huo Chenan seemed to think that the servant dormitory of the Su family was more luxurious than this room.

"My house is simple, I'm sorry to make you laugh, Master Huo."

"No problem, I'm just a servant, how can I be scornful of the poor and love the rich?" Huo Chenan said with a smile.

Hearing Huo Chenan's words, Qin Wushuang understood that he did not despise his status as a courtesan at all, and even used his status as a servant to make jokes, which made Qin Wushuang's favor for him doubled.

Thinking of Huo Chenan's words "We are both wanderers in the world, why do we have to know each other when we meet", he felt that this person was talented.

"Why is such a person a small servant?" A sense of curiosity rose from Wushuang's heart.

After ordering the maid Yun'er to buy vegetables and cook, Wushuang poured Huo Chenan a pot of tea.

...

Batian Gang Hall.

"Brother, you have to avenge me." Ma Daha lay on a stretcher with an ice pack between his legs.

"Dare to hit someone from the Batian Gang, that is to hit me, Chen Batian, in the face. Who did it?" A big man with a fierce beard sat on a tiger-skin chair.

"It's a little servant." Ma Daha cried.

"..." Chen Batian pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you get revenge, but the birthday of King Wu is coming soon, and I don't know how many princes and nobles have come to Jinling. That little servant may be from a prominent family. After King Wu's birthday, I will definitely get revenge for you. You should take good care of your injuries."

Ma Daha had no choice but to agree.

After leaving the hall, Ma Daha said to the two brothers who were carrying the stretcher: "You two go and find out for me whose servant that guy is. I will never let him go."

"Yes." The two brothers responded in unison.

...

Qin Wushuang's home.

Looking at the same ancient green vegetables without oil, water or salt, Huo Chenan was helpless. Who said that this was someone else's treat, and he had no choice.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and said, "How can we have food without wine? Wait for a moment."

So Huo Chenan took a jar of wine from the carriage.

Looking at the jar full of wine fragrance, Qin Wushuang did not care about the pitiful little maid next to her, and directly refused, "Mr. Huo, is this your master's wine? It's too expensive! I can't drink it."

In ancient times, there was a saying that ten kilograms of grain equaled one kilogram of wine. In order to preserve grain, many dynasties banned alcohol. It can be seen how precious wine was in ancient times.

"It's not the master's wine, it's my wine." Huo Chenan naturally understood Qin Wushuang's concerns. She was worried that she would be punished by the master.

What a kind girl! So an idea came to her mind.

"Is it really Mr. Huo's wine?" Miss Wushuang was a little surprised.

She couldn't see through Mr. Huo any more.

As a servant, he could speak eloquently, and he had valuable items such as wine.

Not only that, he is kind-hearted and helpful, and he is also quite handsome if you look closely...

Huo Chenan naturally didn't know what Qin Wushuang was thinking, he just replied: "Well, it's a long story. But I have a good thing to discuss with you."

"You saved my life, I will do whatever you ask." Wushuang said.

"Let me borrow your kitchen." Huo Chenan immediately stood up and said.
