Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 822: They Escaped

The flower maidens serving Young Master Gao and several others were still in the courtyard. It was only at this moment that they realized Mu Dan and the others had venereal disease, and Gu Chengxian had even slept with Mu Dan, so he must have been infected!

A few flower maidens screamed in horror, lifting their skirts and running out of the courtyard.

One flower maiden was somewhat decent, having served Gu Youlu in the past, a brief connection. She turned back to remind Gu Youlu’s group: "Your Shuixian came with Mu Dan, and they’re living in the same room. You’d better find a doctor quickly, perhaps there’s still time."

Before she finished speaking, she was dragged away by the other flower maidens: "Hurry up and leave, stop dawdling, aren’t you afraid?"

What is venereal disease? All men who have been to brothels know that it is an evil disease more terrifying than the plague. Once infected, it’s hopeless to cure!

Gu Youlu went crazy, yelling at Shuixian standing at the door: "Wretch! Tell me, do you have venereal disease?!"

The response was the sound of a door closing, followed by the sound of a bolt sliding and furniture being moved to block the entrance.

Gu Youlu, hearing these sounds, understood everything.

This wretch truly had venereal disease; she was scared he would strangle her, so she secured the door.

Gu Youlu went mad, viciously crashing into the door with his body, the sound of banging echoing in the yard: "You harmful wretch, come out for me, I will hack you to pieces!"

Qian Guangzong and his son also went mad, intending to confront Lian Qiao and Haitang for answers, but Lian Qiao and Haitang had already locked their doors and were packing their things.

Gu Chengxian was frozen, staring at Mu Dan, his mind echoing with the thought: It’s over, it’s over, I’ve got venereal disease, not only can I not take the exams, but I’ll never show my face again!

Gu Chengxian’s face, once presentable, turned grotesque, his eyes filled with madness as he screamed, lunging at Mu Dan with hands outstretched, wanting to strangle her.

But driven by rage, his blood rushed to his head, and after two steps he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing this, Mu Dan hurried back into her room, closing the door and shouted from behind it: "Elder Lu San, your nephew has fainted, if you don’t want him to die, save him quickly!"

After screaming this sentence, she began to pack her belongings.

Upon hearing this, Gu Youlu’s party looked at the collapsed Gu Chengxian, terrified he might die; they dared not confront Shuixian’s group but rushed over to surround Gu Chengxian, shaking him: "Cheng Xian, Cheng Xian, are you alright? Wake up!"

No matter how they called, Gu Chengxian remained lifeless, unable to wake up.

Mu Dan and her group had taken the silver notes and silver, opened the back window, and using the sheets as rope, lowered themselves into the backyard and headed to the corner gate of the Chunfeng Pavilion.

This corner gate was specifically used for dumping chamber pots and drunk guests’ vomit. Usually, no one would pass, except an arm amputated man in his thirties guarding it.

Mu Dan and her group gave him a tael of silver and he let them go.

The man let them leave easily because of Han Xiao.

After Mu Dan and her group left, the man also departed from the Chunfeng Pavilion.

...

Young Master Gao and his group were terrified, escaping while shouting: "Hurry up, the Flower Fairies at Chunfeng Pavilion have venereal disease, quickly find a doctor!"

They shouted until their voices almost broke, waking a mass of patrons.

The guests staying at Chunfeng Pavilion rushed out, some wrapped in blankets without clothes, some only had time to put on pants, others didn’t even leave their rooms and opened the windows to ask: "What are you saying? The Flower Fairies at Chunfeng Pavilion have venereal disease? How could this be possible? Weren’t they examined by doctors before arrival?!"

Brothels have rules too, fearing flower maidens or Flower Fairies might have hidden diseases that would ruin their reputation. So every time Flower Fairies were invited from Jiangnan to attract crowds, doctors were called to examine them; only when they were deemed healthy were they invited.

Young Master Gao said: "Who knows what’s happening with Chunfeng Pavilion? Anyway, the diseased Flower Fairy Mu Dan from Jiangnan is in this brothel."

Young Master Yu rubbed his goose-bump covered arms, saying: "Everyone hurry up, with my last name being Yu, would I lie to you? If you don’t leave, you’ll end up like the Gu Family People, infected with the disease."

These words were shocking, and all the patrons at Chunfeng Pavilion asked: "What did you say, the descendant of Lai Vice Magistrate’s benefactor slept with the diseased Flower Fairy?"

Young Master Yu waved dismissively, unwilling to speak further, only saying: "Don’t ask, just go."

He gave them another reminder: "Those of you planning to take the exams this year, be careful... stay away from the Gu Family; otherwise, you risk infection."

Young Master Yu’s words implicitly told them that the Gu Family Person who slept with Mu Dan was Gu Chengxian.

The guests were frantic, hurriedly dressing, rushing downstairs to escape this place.

Lady Mei from Chunfeng Pavilion already got the news, leading a group of henchmen, blocking the guests’ way: "Stop, none of you can leave!"

Lady Mei, over fifty, forty years ago was a famous Flower Fairy in Jiangnan Jinling Prefecture. After saving enough silver, she returned to He’an Prefecture, opened Chunfeng Pavilion, operating it for over thirty years and establishing Chunfeng Pavilion firmly in He’an Prefecture.

Just as she was about to retire peacefully, this catastrophe struck, turning her face ashen with rage.

But the guests at Chunfeng Pavilion disagreed: "Lady Mei, you invited diseased Flower Fairies to Chunfeng Pavilion to bolster your business, and now that the place is ruined, you are stopping us from leaving. Are you not human? Do you want us all infected with venereal disease?"

Lady Mei knew that if this incident wasn’t silenced today, Chunfeng Pavilion would be finished, so she resolutely wouldn’t let the guests leave, pointing at Young Master Yu and his group: "Is it you claiming we invited diseased Flower Fairies? Do you know spreading rumors violates Criminal Law? If no diseased Flower Fairies are within Chunfeng Pavilion, you all must face consequences at the government office!"

Scholar Wu feared dying from venereal disease, seeing Lady Mei refusing to let them leave, he stood up immediately: "I, Wu, am a Scholar from Jiangnan; today I swear by my official position, Chunfeng Pavilion truly has diseased Flower Fairies."

He also said: "That Flower Fairy named Mu Dan, was once also renowned in Jiangnan, but she was unlucky, serving an old man for a thousand taels, got venereal disease, couldn’t stay in Jiangnan, so she left. Now she is in the courtyard behind Chunfeng Pavilion."

Young Master Gao just wanted to leave this damned place quickly, not wanting to argue with Lady Mei too much, he asked: "Stop denying and just say if you indeed invited a Flower Fairy named Mu Dan to bolster your business?"

Lady Mei’s face turned instantly black, Chunfeng Pavilion had indeed invited a Flower Fairy named Mu Dan to attract crowds, but the group of Flower Fairies were examined by doctors who pronounced them disease-free before she allowed them into Chunfeng Pavilion.

The person who found doctors for Mu Dan and her company was Han Xiao.

If Mu Dan has venereal disease and still entered Chunfeng Pavilion, then Han Xiao must be responsible!
