Rustle...
The small courtyard was enclosed by a high wall, and a straight canal, tens of meters beyond the wall, rushed by, making the sound of breaking waves.
This canal had been built by the local residents for irrigating the nearby fertile fields.
Inside the high wall, a dozen robust men were eating meat heartily and drinking from large bowls. One of the two men seated in the main position was none other than Huang Feiren, who had beaten Liu Dechu previously.
The other was a one-eyed, sinister man with a dark complexion named Chen Xiao, a top martial artist within a hundred miles.
Because Huang Feiren was part of the Huang family, everyone flattered and pleased him to his great comfort, even Chen Xiao treated him with great respect.
"Alright, gentlemen, thank you for your hard work. Today, I, Huang, am grateful to Brother Chen for his hospitality. These stubborn commoners are tough and foul, seeming without any flesh, but with some effort squeezed out, there is still plenty of profit." Huang Feiren said with a satisfied look, lifting his wine cup and taking a light sip,
"Brother Chen, our master of the Huang family has married your Chen Family's legitimate daughter. We are one family, so we brothers must grow closer."
"Of course." The one-eyed Chen Xiao's face showed a hint of a smile as he raised his cup again and laughed aloud:
"It's an honor for Brother Huang to visit today. Let's share an amusing event that happened in the Chen estate to entertain Brother Huang while we drink."
"Heh heh, Brother Huang might not know, there is a brothel in our hundred-mile village with a top courtesan named Bai Shishi, the daughter of a local tenant farmer. Because she couldn't pay the rent, she had to sell herself.
Bai Shishi, in the prime of youth, just yesterday at dawn, she jumped into the canal outside our wall."
"Brother Huang, why do you think that is? You know, Bai Shishi's skin is so tender you could squeeze water from it, and many come to the brothel specifically for her."
"Could it be she couldn't stand being constantly exploited and decided to end her life?" Huang Feiren also couldn't help but show a knowing smile upon hearing this.
"Heh heh, Brother Huang, you're wrong!"
"Brother Huang knows me, my lightness skills are quite commendable. One dark and windy night, I saw a figure sneaking into the forest on the outside, burying something. Curious, I followed."
"By the starlight, I discovered that it was Bai Shishi, and what she buried was the silver she had secretly saved from the tips her patrons gave her."
"Brother Huang, do you know? Haha, she actually thought she could earn her own freedom, she actually thought she could redeem herself!
Previously, the madam, pressed for an answer, just blurted out a sum, one thousand taels, and now she had actually saved five hundred!"
At this moment, everyone inside the high wall laughed so hard they bent forward and backward, one even laughed until tears came out, as if they had heard something especially hilarious.
A few breaths later, Chen Xiao saw that the mood of the crowd had eased, so he lifted his wine bowl for a sip, still looking eager, and said, "Brothers, guess what I did then?"
"The brothel is backed by your Chen Family, right, Brother Chen? Did you perhaps take the girl's silver then, causing her to despair and finally jump into the river?"

"Mr. Huang's words are precise; we think the same." The followers also chimed in with their guesses.
Chen Xiao looked around, poured himself another bowl of wine, laughing as he picked up a peanut with his chopsticks.
Peanuts with wine, the more you drink, the better~
After enjoying the peanuts and swallowing them down, his eyes almost narrowed into slits with comfort, Chen Xiao suddenly put down his chopsticks, and a cold light flashed in his sinister eyes. He said with a not-so-sincere smile,
"Brother Huang, you are partly right and partly wrong."
"Brother Chen, don't tease us any longer. Otherwise, I won't enjoy my drink today. What exactly do you mean by right and wrong?"
"Haha, Brother Huang is impatient. I, Chen, apologize and will clarify. Actually, it's quite simple; I did nothing at the time."
"You did nothing?"
"That's right, heh heh. I only dug up the silver she had hidden after she left and last night, I used her saved silver to sleep with her."
"Five hundred taels! Laid out straight on the table!"
"The girl's eyes almost shone. She thought after tonight, she could buy her freedom."
"Usually, the girl is feisty; there are things she wouldn't do even if beaten to death, but last night, perhaps because she wanted her freedom so badly, she did whatever I asked. Though inexperienced, it was truly a unique flavor, haha~"
"After we finished, I told her the silver on the table was her own, dug up by me. Brother Huang, if only you saw her face then, it was priceless, heh heh."
"Brilliant! Brother Chen, that's brilliant!" Huang Feiren couldn't help but give a thumbs up, praising loudly.
"Brother Huang flatters me, sigh, I miscalculated, not expecting the girl to be so spirited. You know, Brother Huang, once they enter our Chen Family's brothel, there is no leaving. So, I confiscated the five hundred taels right in front of her, telling her to abandon the thought.
She would only leave the brothel when she died."
"So, the girl changed into a red dress in the middle of the night and jumped right into the canal to die."
