Chapter 130 Awu Takes Action
"Song Qingwan personally stepped forward to help Yancai up, and told Chunya to get her a new set of clothes.
"Do you have any other wounds?"
"No, no."
Song Qingwan sighed as she looked at Yancai's evasive eyes, took Yancai into the inner room, and closed the door.
"Take off your clothes, I'll examine you thoroughly. If there are any sequelae, how can you help me?"
"Yes, ma'am."
Yancai obediently took off all her clothes, revealing all the scars of varying sizes on her body in front of Song Qingwan. Looking at these wounds, Song Qingwan took a breath.
"Don't be afraid, young lady. These scars are not all caused by being beaten. Some of them are caused by me myself."
"So you're doing this to prevent them from letting you have clients?"
"Miss, you guessed right. It's very difficult to stay innocent in a place like that. I can only think of this way."
Song Qingwan stopped talking. She took out anti-inflammatory medicine, tweezers and disinfectant.
"It will hurt, just bear with it."
Yancai bit her lip and nodded. No matter how painful it was, could it be compared to the torture she had endured over the years?
Song Qingwan quickly poured disinfectant on Yancai's body, then wiped it dry with clean gauze, and finally applied anti-inflammatory medicine.
Yancai didn't make a sound during the whole process. Even though she was shaking with pain, she knew that this was a test she had to go through.
While Song Qingwan was treating Yancai's injuries, Awu had already brought the girls to the entrance of Baihua Tower.
Apparently, Baihualou had received the news in advance. At this moment, the madam and a group of guards were standing outside the door of Baihualou with a ferocious look.
"Sir, which girl from Baihua Tower do you like? If the money is in place, I will present her to you."
"Are you the Red Mother of Baihua Tower?"
"That's right. Just now, you openly beat up someone from Baihualou on the street. Are you looking for trouble?"
Mother Hong is a plump middle-aged woman with thick makeup on her face and a gold hairpin on her head. She is dressed in a flashy way, and her usually flattering eyes have become sharp.
However, Awu kept the girls behind him. He came here today to gather information and could not cause a conflict.
"Mom, you misunderstood. Our master has ordered me to send the girls back personally. Please don't make things difficult for them."
"Oh, I misunderstood. Let's go, Da Zhuang, take the girls to the back."
Awu felt a little uncomfortable looking at the fickle old procuress. He only knew that Xiao Chunya would suddenly cry or laugh. How could a woman of such an old age be like this?
Although Lu Dazhuang was unwilling, he had no choice but to do as he was told. He really wanted to teach Awu a lesson, but he had to listen to his master.
Awu simply ignored Lu Dazhuang's murderous look and the girls' pleading looks at him.
Ah Wu has always been very clear about his identity. He is the personal bodyguard of King Huai and can only obey the prince and princess. He will do whatever his master tells him to do.
After arranging everything, Hongniang affectionately pulled Awu into Baihua Tower and directly invited him into the room on the second floor.
"Which girl would you like to accompany you? We have all kinds of girls here."
"Mom is fine, please sit down."
Awu took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and placed it on the table. The madam began to feel embarrassed as it was the first time she had seen such a scene.
"Okay, fine. Sir, do you want to listen to music or drink?"
"I came here today to discuss cooperation with my mother."
"Cooperation? What cooperation?"
"Our master wants to buy your Baihua Tower. Mom, please name a price."
Seeing Awu's serious expression, Hongniang covered her mouth and laughed.
"Sir, this is not a joke. Baihua Tower is where prostitutes like us make a living. Besides, you can't buy Baihua Tower just by having money."
Awu nodded. Just as Song Qingwan had guessed, the madam would not agree so readily.
"If mom doesn't want to, we won't force her. But mom is forcing people to buy and sell things and bullying men and women. I'm afraid we have to report her to the government."
"Hmph, since you don't want to play here, then please..."
Mother Hong's face darkened and she stood up to see the guest off.
Awu calmly picked up the tea at hand, brought it to his lips, smelled it, frowned, then he put down the teacup and looked up.
"If you don't accept my mother's toast, you will have to drink a penalty drink."
"Do you think my Yuehong was brought up by fear? Come, capture him for me!"
As soon as Hong's mother finished speaking, a group of thugs ran up with weapons, and Ah Wu calmly picked up the sword. Then the two sides fought.
Awu did not draw his sword, for fear of hurting anyone and causing trouble. Even so, the group of guards were lying on the ground in a short while.
"Who are you? Don't think you can get away with beating up a few of my guards."
Mother Hong no longer had the arrogance she had just now. She looked at Awu with vigilance and prepared to go out for help.
At this time, Song Qingwan walked in slowly from outside. She looked at the situation upstairs and walked up directly.
"This mother disagrees with our proposal, but is not satisfied with the price?"
"Who are you? Are you in league with this guy?"
Ah Wu stood up and stood respectfully behind Song Qingwan. Mother Hong began to panic. Such a powerful bodyguard? What was the identity of this woman?
"We are buying your Baihualou in good faith. Mom, just name your price. If it's suitable, we will pay on the spot."
"This lady looks very noble, why did you buy a place like ours that only prostitutes can use? Aren't you afraid of getting your clothes dirty?"
"Mom, why do you have to belittle yourself? Which girl in this line of work is not desperate? Who is not helpless? Only people with a pure heart would think this is a dirty job."
Mother Hong's expression relaxed. It wasn't that she didn't want to sell it, but she felt that Awu didn't seem like someone who could afford it.
Although the woman in front of him looked young, her whole body was full of elegance and her identity was obviously not simple.
"I can promise you, but I need a witness."
"Sure, what do you think, Mr. Liu, the governor of Qiantang?"
"It would be great if Miss could ask Lord Liu to help."
Song Qingwan took out a token from her bosom and handed it to Awu. Awu nodded, quickly went down the stairs and walked towards the provincial government.
The token was given to Song Qingwan by Zhao Huaijin. It was a special token for King Huai. Seeing the token was like seeing the person, and officials from all places knew it.
After Awu left, Song Qingwan sat on a chair and began to study the cup of tea. She asked about Hong's mother casually.
"Mom, you have a lot of good things here. This tea is really unique. I have never seen it before."
"To be honest, this tea comes from Southern Xinjiang. It is not available in the Great Saint Dynasty, so you have never seen it."
"So that's how it is. Is there an aphrodisiac in it?"
"No, some plants in southern Xinjiang have this characteristic naturally, and this tea is one of them."
