In Huoshan County, Luzhou Prefecture, there lived a family. The head of the household, Zhang Xin, married a woman named Li. The couple ran a clothing shop in the county town, making a living by cutting and sewing clothes. Zhang Xin was quick-witted, loved to follow trends, and was adept at research, resulting in ever-evolving tailoring styles. His exquisite sewing skills made him a favorite among wealthy landowners in the surrounding area. As a result, their small shop prospered. Within a few years, their tiny shop had grown into a large, bright, two-bay storefront.

However, every family has its troubles. Despite Zhang Xin's thriving business and the couple's harmonious relationship,

perhaps due to insufficient male virility or some vaginal problem in Li, they remained childless until their thirties. A century later, not only would the Zhang family line end, but their exceptional tailoring skills would also be lost—a great loss indeed. The couple were deeply saddened by this, but we will not dwell on it for now.

Coincidentally, during this period, Chenzhou, Zhang Xin's hometown, suffered a three-year drought, resulting in a complete crop failure. Some local residents fled their homes to seek a new livelihood, while others, reluctant to leave their ancestral land, sent their children to find work elsewhere to supplement their income. One of Zhang Xin's distant uncles belonged to the latter group, sending his ten-year-old son, Zhang Jizu, to seek refuge with Zhang Xin, hoping to earn a living in his tailor shop. Zhang Xin himself came from a poor background and understood the hardships of the poor, wanting to lend a helping hand. Furthermore, his shop did need an apprentice, so he gladly accepted. A year later, Zhang Xin saw that the boy was handsome, intelligent, diligent, and loyal to his master and mistress, and decided to adopt him. He asked someone to mediate, and the other party was more than happy to agree. So, on an auspicious day, a banquet was held, and Jizu officially became Zhang Xin's son. The whole family was overjoyed that their wish had come true. Zhang Xin then imparted all his skills to Ji Zu, who diligently studied. Seven or eight years later, Zhang Ji Zu became a renowned tailor in the area.

A few years later, Ji Zu had grown into a handsome young man of twenty, attracting matchmakers to his door. Zhang Xin, knowing his own limitations as a craftsman from a humble family, knew he couldn't aspire to marry into the wealthy and powerful. Therefore, he chose a suitable match for him: the daughter of a small merchant family, named Liu Suzhen, sixteen years old. She was exceptionally beautiful, with a graceful figure

, a delicate and elegant appearance, a beautiful face, and delicate features. Her eyebrows were like willow leaves, her eyes sparkling, her lips red and fragrant. She had

slender arms and legs, a shapely figure, and a graceful waist. Her skin was fair and her legs delicate, her breasts firm and rounded, and she exuded a sweet fragrance, resembling the moon goddess Chang'e.

Furthermore, she was gentle, virtuous, filial, and hardworking. With her parents-in-law and husband busy at the shop, Liu Suzhen became the household manager. The family of four lived harmoniously, and their fortunes improved daily. A few years later, the small shop expanded into a large clothing store with a shop in the front, a workshop in the middle, and a residence in the back. But

nothing lasts forever. Life is never smooth sailing; disappointments are frequent. Just as Zhang Xin reached fifty and Ji Zu reached thirty, his wife, Li, unfortunately fell ill. Despite seeking medical help, she passed away. The whole family was devastated, and Zhang Xin was heartbroken. A young couple grows old together, bound by marriage, supporting each other through thick and thin. From their youth to the present, over thirty years, they had grown from a small tailor shop to their current large storefront—a result of their shared joys and sorrows, their joint efforts. Whenever Zhang Xin entered the shop and looked at the windows and shelves his wife had arranged, he was overcome with emotion, tears streaming down his face, his mind reeling, unable to control himself. Later, he simply handed the shop over to his son to manage entirely, becoming a hands-off manager and no longer patronizing the shop.

With two veteran employees gone, Ji Zu couldn't handle the workload alone, so he recruited two skilled businessmen, Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu, who had come from Tongcheng County to work in Huoshan. Thanks to Ji Zu's craftsmanship and the two men's eloquence, the shop continued to thrive.

As for Zhang Xin, since relinquishing control of the shop, he enjoyed a relaxed and happy life, spending his days resting in the backyard, or drinking tea and playing chess with other elderly people under the shade of trees—a very leisurely existence. However, many of his old customers still trusted him, valued his skills, and often invited him to their homes, treating him to good food and drink, and staying for a few days to sew funeral clothes for their parents and new clothes for their children. This was partly because he couldn't refuse the old customers' hospitality, partly because he couldn't give up his old skills and itched to do more, and partly because he wanted to expand his son's business. He always went willingly, using the opportunity to travel and sightsee. Over time, it became an indispensable part of his life.

This time, Zhang Xin was again in Luzhou Prefecture, working on a dowry. This was a wealthy family who had hired over a dozen craftsmen to prepare the dowry for their daughter's wedding. One day, the craftsmen were chatting idly after work when a young man asked, "Brother, have you hooked up with that Xiao Taohong yet?

" "Don't even mention it," the young man replied. "I spent two taels of silver to go in, had a cup of wine, and only touched her delicate hand. I didn't even get a kiss before I was kicked out.

In that case, our monthly wages aren't even enough for one night with her. Her price is way too high." "

Who is Xiao Taohong? Which brothel does she live in? What's her character like?" The young men were most interested in these kinds of questions and asked one after another.

Xiao Taohong, whose surname is Wang and nickname is Taohua, is currently the top courtesan at the Lichun Brothel. Insiders say that her beauty is truly breathtaking! With willow-leaf eyebrows, almond eyes, cherry lips, peach cheeks, a lotus-like face, a slender waist, full breasts, and a curvaceous bottom, she is also skilled in singing, dancing, and playing musical instruments—a rare talent indeed!

When did such a talent appear? Why haven't we heard of her before?

This Xiao Taohong was a little girl who fled famine in Chenzhou during a drought. Desperate for food and clothing, she was sold to a brothel for survival. Although she grew up to be quite beautiful, she suffered from a serious ailment: body odor. Her foul smell could be detected from three feet away, preventing her from receiving VIP clients and forcing her to frequent low-class brothels. It was the brothel's madam who had a keen eye and bought her at a low price. No one knows what kind of miraculous medicine she used to cure her ailment, which is how she became a sensation and surpassed all others! It's only been about half a year. Those in the know paused, then added, "But since she'd been in those low-class brothels, she's bound to have picked up some dirty diseases! So when you go to visit her, you have to be careful. Of course, this must be kept secret! Otherwise, we'll ruin her livelihood. These people are all greedy; if they find out we leaked the secret, they won't let us off the hook!"

The young ones gossiped, while the older ones chatted amongst themselves. "

I said, Old Zhang," I said, "your wife has been dead for years. Don't you want to remarry and find someone to take care of you in your later years?

Marriage is all about fate; you can't force it. If you're compatible, you'll love each other and live happily ever after. If you're not compatible, you'll fight and argue all the time. It's better to be single and have a peaceful life!" Zhang Xin said with some emotion.

Master Zhang was a romantic; he had deep feelings for his deceased wife and still couldn't forget her. How could he choose another woman and fall in love with someone else?

Old Zhang is right. Bringing back a shrew is less enjoyable than being single. If you bring back a greedy, lustful woman, she might even kill you!

I also support being single. If your manhood gets itchy, just go to a brothel, find a lover, have a few rounds, and get your kicks. It's much better than having a wife and kids to keep you tied down, always asking for food and drink!

These words were merely casual remarks exchanged during idle chatter, and the speaker might not have actually intended to do such a thing. Yet, for some reason, they stirred Zhang Xin's heart today. Lying alone on his bed in the dead of night, his mind was restless, and he couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He pondered: Although Li Shi and I shared a deep bond and fought side by side through thick and thin for decades, she has been dead for over two years now. When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; dead ashes can never be rekindled. Shouldn't I also seek a new flame and rekindle my life? In my haste, let alone finding a new partner, perhaps I could go to a brothel and seek some pleasure, wouldn't that be alright? Yes, at least I can't stay in a dead end, under this withered old locust tree, just waiting to be hanged, can I? That's how people are; good habits are hard to cultivate, but bad ones come easily. Zhang Xin was originally a craftsman from the lower rungs of society. The old feudal moral codes held no sway over him. Now that his business had grown, he didn't care about spending money. His mind opened up, and his behavior became unrestrained. This led to a scandalous affair, which ultimately resulted in a lawsuit and the loss of several lives!

The next day, after finishing work, he changed into a bright and elegant outfit. As a tailor, he might lack other things, but he had plenty of decent clothes, making him look like a wealthy man. With some silver notes tucked into his pocket, he strolled towards the brothel. The madam greeted him, and seeing that he looked like a rich man, she immediately beamed with delight, quickly inviting him to sit down, serving tea, and saying obsequiously, "Sir, you must be tired. Is this your first time seeking pleasure at my brothel? Our girls are all beautiful as flowers; I guarantee you'll have a good time!" She beckoned inside, "Peony, peony, wintersweet, chrysanthemum, rose, Chinese rose, magnolia, lotus—come out and let the master have a look!" Before she finished speaking, a string of young women dressed in red shirts and green jackets, their faces painted with makeup and adorned with jewels, emerged from behind the curtain. Each one moved with a light, graceful gait, displaying seductive and wanton manners as they passed before him. After introducing them one by one, the madam asked, "Which one has caught the master's eye?"

Zhang Xin, whose tailor shop had indeed amassed some wealth over the past decade or so, was still a nouveau riche and had never seen such a magnificent and colorful scene. Now, his mind was already clouded by the fragrance of cosmetics, the aroma of wine, and the allure of wealth. He bluntly asked, "Which one of them is Little Peach Blossom?"

Upon hearing this, the madam's face contorted with laughter. She thought to herself, "Little Peach Blossom is truly a money tree! Another sucker has arrived!" On the surface, she feigned helplessness, saying with a regretful tone, "Master wants Peach Blossom! Master truly has discerning eyes, very farsighted indeed. She is the top courtesan in our brothel! Beautiful, slender, of outstanding character, and exceptionally skilled. It's just that Master's timing is unfortunate tonight; she has already been booked by Master Zhao from the south of the city!" She secretly watched Zhang Xin's movements, seeing him shaking his head and sighing repeatedly, seemingly regretful yet unwilling. Just as he was about to helplessly consider asking for another girl, the old woman spoke up again, but there was still room for negotiation. Master Zhao had already prepaid Peach Blossom's fee for one night at twenty taels. According to the rules, in case of any changes, the deposit would be refunded in full, plus a penalty of fifty percent for breach of contract. Our Lichun Brothel cannot do business at a loss! "In my opinion, if you could pay the ten taels of silver for us as the penalty for breach of contract, we would return Master Zhao and give you Peach Blossom Girl. What do you say, sir?"

Old Zhang Xin, already completely captivated by the sights of fair, delicate bodies, slender figures, melodious music, and sweet fragrance, was lost in a blissful trance. He would have agreed without hesitation even if it were three hundred taels, let alone thirty.

Zhang Xin pulled out a thirty-tael silver note from his pocket and handed it to the madam. She smiled radiantly and led the way into a room. "Please wait here a moment, sir. Peach Blossom Girl will be here shortly!

" the madam said, turning and closing the door behind her. Zhang Xin paced back and forth in the room, looking around. The house was unremarkable, lacking both opulence and extravagance. A pink tasseled canopy hung above the carved bed, and a pair of apricot-yellow pillows embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water. In the center was a small round table with two chairs, upon which were placed several dishes of dried and fresh fruit, cold appetizers, and fine white Jingdezhen porcelain. Several New Year's paintings with auspicious meanings of wealth and abundance adorned the walls. A statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva sat on a long table, wisps of smoke curling in the air, emitting a faint fragrance. This must be Xiao Taohong's boudoir for receiving guests.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a strong, pungent fragrance of orchids wafted out, causing him to cover his nose and sneeze. Looking up, he saw a charming young woman drift in through the door. Her appearance was striking: a graceful, alluring figure, a captivating and seductive air, a flowing red satin dress, a slender, willow-like waist, a delicate, rosy face, rosy cheeks, arched, willow-leaf eyebrows, sparkling, watery eyes, a straight, delicate nose, cherry-like lips, fair, smooth skin, slender, white bones, full, shapely breasts, heavy, fragrant hips, slender, jade-like fingers, and delicate, pointed, golden lotus feet.

Entering the room, she gave Zhang Xin a deep curtsy, parted her lips to reveal her pearly teeth, and said in a sweet, melodious voice: "This humble servant, Peach Blossom, greets you, sir. I have come to serve you and await your command." Three consecutive "Master!"s, her voice like silver bells and sweet as honey, teased Zhang Xin, making him feel as if a thousand claws were scratching at his heart. He couldn't help but lunge forward, trying to embrace her. But Xiao Taohong was clever enough to deftly move her body, advancing and retreating, always maintaining a distance of two or three feet. Then she softly said, "Master, don't be impatient, there's still a long night ahead! Let me first offer you three cups of wine, then I'll play with you in bed."

Saying this, she invited him to sit down. Xiao Taohong gently stretched out her jade-like arm, flicked her slender fingers, and filled two cups with sweet grape wine. She handed one to Zhang Xin, saying, "I am fortunate to receive your favor, Master. Today I offer this cup of wine as a small token of my gratitude. I hope you are in good spirits and have a good time!" Enticed by Xiao Taohong's sweet words, Zhang Xin was delighted and drank several cups in succession.

It was unclear what had been added to the wine, but Zhang Xin, who usually had a large capacity for alcohol, was completely drunk after just a few cups. His face flushed, his breath ragged, and he glanced at Xiao Taohong with his drunken eyes. She too was flushed with desire, her eyes gleaming, her breasts slightly exposed, her movements coquettish and alluring. Overwhelmed by emotion, he lost control and, without thinking, rushed forward, pulling Xiao Taohong into his arms. He began to grope her body and kiss her face. Xiao Taohong, half-heartedly resisting, followed him onto the bed, undressing and engaging in passionate lovemaking.

It turned out that although Xiao Taohong was beautiful and charming, she had been born with a chronic body odor. The madam of the brothel had bought her, claiming to have cured her with a secret remedy. In reality, she simply used fragrant perfumes and incense to mask the odor before seeing customers. However, regardless of the circumstances, close-quarters intercourse inevitably leaves a lingering, unpleasant stench. This has led to fights and brawls between the patrons and the brothel. Later, the madam devised a plan: upon entering, she would first serve the patrons three cups of strong wine, laced with a small amount of sleeping potion and aphrodisiac. In this semi-conscious state, the patrons would only see the alluring faces, ignoring the foul odor, and unknowingly fall for her scheme. Believing they were experiencing unparalleled pleasure, they lingered, returning again and again, leaving the madam with vast sums of money, shamelessly and smugly believing they had the most beautiful courtesan in their grasp! Zhang Xin is now precisely this kind of fool, deceived and still deluded!

Since his wife's death, Zhang Xin had lived a solitary, ascetic life, never approaching a woman. Today, having tasted the forbidden fruit, he was like dry tinder, ready to ignite at any moment. Though his old age and frailty prevented a blazing fire, he still exerted all his strength, fighting fiercely. Xiao Taohong, on the other hand, was a born harlot, indiscriminate in her desires, regardless of age or strength.

The two engaged in a passionate battle on the bed. It was truly:

heads together like phoenixes flitting among flowers, necks entwined like mandarin ducks playing in the water, first pressing their lips tightly together, then leaning against each other's faces.

A cloud of dark clouds piled up beside the pillow, the brocade concealing their frenzied passion, cherry lips panting and gasping, sweet saliva spitting from their tongues.

Deep affection conveyed in their hazy, starry eyes, sweat soaking their soft breasts, trickling down like sweet dew, leaving a lingering fragrance in the world.

Willow waists swayed with the intensity of spring, warbling like nightingale's song, a thousand enchanting clouds and rain, vows of eternal love tied together.

…After more than an hour, the two finally finished their lovemaking. Zhang Xin, old and frail, was exhausted from the intense activity and fell into a deep sleep. Xiao Taohong, however, was still unsatisfied. She secretly slipped out of Zhang Xin's arms and went to attend to other customers. At dawn, she returned to Zhang Xin's side and lay down on her side. When the old man awoke, he saw Xiao Taohong still in his arms, her soft, warm body exuding a seductive, almost pungent, scent that further aroused him. If it weren't for the fact that it was time to go to work, he wouldn't have wanted to say goodbye.

That evening, Zhang Xin came again, and because he had a reservation, he only paid twenty taels of silver. This continued for three days, and it seemed that one hundred taels of silver had gone down the drain; all the wages he had earned through a year of hard work had been lost. Brothels are bottomless pits of money; you can't get in empty-handed. Fortunately, the work here was finished, so he quickly packed his bags and, filled with longing and yearning, reluctantly returned to his hometown in Huoshan County with Xiao Taohong.

Zhang Xin returned home, but Xiao Taohong's beautiful image constantly floated in his mind. He suffered from insomnia day and night, lost his appetite, and grew thin and haggard for her. Before a month had passed, he couldn't resist running off alone to Luzhou Prefecture to visit Xiao Taohong at the Lichun Brothel. He repeated this four or five times within six months. His ex-wife, Li, had saved up a fortune through frugality and hard work, which vanished like water. His son, Jizu, saw this and was heartbroken. He wanted to persuade his father to change his ways, but was too proud to speak. Originally, the family's wealth was all painstakingly accumulated by the parents, and spending some money in their later years was perfectly acceptable. However, pouring a large sum of money into a prostitute who would bring no future for them was indeed not worthwhile. Ji Zu was an honest man, only knowing how to hone his craft and not good at scheming, so he was powerless to stop his father's actions.

One day, while chatting with his employees Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu in the shop, he sighed helplessly about the matter. Unexpectedly, Yang Yun offered an unexpected solution: "This is easy! Just marry Xiao Tao Hong and fulfill the old man's wish, wouldn't that solve it?"

"That might be difficult!" Ji Zu hesitated.

"Is it because she's a prostitute, and it would damage the Zhang family's reputation?" Zhang Xiu countered. "

No, that's not it. Our family isn't some scholarly family or a prestigious clan; we're just a lowly craftsman's family. As long as the old man is willing, marrying her is fine." However, Xiao Taohong is the top courtesan of the Lichun Brothel, and her price is extremely high. To buy her out of prostitution, it would probably take several thousand taels of silver. My small shop, even if it went bankrupt, probably couldn't afford it! "

Brother, don't panic," Yang Yun said. "From what I understand, although Xiao Taohong is exceptionally beautiful, she has a slight disability, so there's still a loophole." He added, "I heard that when the Lichun Brothel bought her, it cost less than a hundred taels of silver. Now, if we pay her ten times that, we should be able to get her for a thousand taels. Leave this to me, brother. Just wait for good news at home!"

After the discussion, Ji Zu gave Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu a few days of leave to go to the Lichun Brothel in Luzhou Prefecture to negotiate with the madam. With their silver tongues, they actually succeeded. They returned and reported to Ji Zu: "The two sides have reached an agreement, and Xiao Taohong will be redeemed for one thousand taels of silver." Ji Zu then reported this to his father, who was more than happy to agree. Having taken out all their savings, about eight hundred taels, and with an additional two hundred taels from the shop's revenue, Ji Zu paid the two men. Within ten days, a bridal sedan chair carried Xiao Tao Hong into the Zhang family's gate.

People might wonder, Xiao Tao Hong was in the prime of her youth, the golden age for entertaining customers and making money. How could Yang Yun and his companion so easily acquire such a cash cow? The truth is, although Xiao Tao Hong was the top courtesan at the Li Chun Brothel, renowned and commanding high prices, her popularity was entirely fabricated by the madam, who used her beauty to create a false sense of success. Most of the locals in Luzhou Prefecture knew that Xiao Tao Hong came from a low-class brothel, a place frequented by hooligans, gamblers, opium addicts, and the poor. Associating with such lowlifes inevitably led to contracting various sexually transmitted diseases. To put it bluntly, her body odor was the most convincing evidence. Therefore, although she was stunningly beautiful, people were still wary of her, keeping their distance and avoiding her at all costs. Only passing merchants and migrant workers, unaware of her true nature, were lured by her beauty and reputation, seeking her favors. Once they learned the truth, they never returned. Thus, Xiao Taohong's customers were mostly one-off clients. Because of this, with a "kill or be killed" mentality, her appearance fee was set extremely high, which in turn caused her popularity to soar. The madam understood that this vicious cycle would soon lead to a decline in business. Therefore, she had long planned to find a wealthy person to sell her at a high price while she was still popular, making a quick profit. Zhang Xin happened to be there at the right time, becoming a sucker.

Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu were originally petty thieves and idlers who, to make a living, gained Ji Zu's trust through their eloquence and temporarily became parasites in the tailor shop as apprentices. This man, of course, knew a thing or two about the inner workings of the brothel business. That's why he was so confident and took on this task for Jizu. Firstly, he wanted to profit from it. He explained the stakes to the madam, and they reached an agreement: the brothel would receive 800 taels of silver, and each of them would get a 100-tael commission. Secondly, they both coveted Wang Taohua's beauty, but as penniless men, they had no way to approach her. Bringing her home would make things much easier, hence their enthusiasm.

Wang Taohua entered the Zhang family and immediately married Zhang Xin. The Zhang family wasn't particularly wealthy, and since she was a courtesan, they didn't want to make a big fuss. They invited a few close friends and relatives from the neighborhood, had a few drinks, and then went to the bridal chamber—that was it. Zhang Xin's wish was fulfilled, Jizu and his wife had fulfilled their filial duties, and Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu's scheme had succeeded—everyone was happy. To make it easier for Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu to get closer to Tao Hua in the future, they proposed that Zhang Xin become their godfather and that they become sworn brothers with Ji Zu. Zhang Xin, delighted and grateful for their help, agreed. A banquet was then held, where the three burned incense, kowtowed, and performed the sworn brotherhood ceremony, before bowing to Zhang Xin and his wife. Ironically, it was quite a sight to see three sons in their thirties and a twenty-eight-year-old daughter-in-law kneeling before their twenty-three-year-old mother.

For the first two or three months after the wedding, Zhang Xin and Tao Hua were deeply in love and their relationship was sweet and harmonious. Father, sons, mother-in-law, and daughter-in-law lived in peace and respect, enjoying a very happy life. However, as time passed and the novelty wore off, problems began to surface.

Zhang Xin, being a man, had his own set of pleasures. He often went out with friends, playing drinking games, drinking tea, and playing chess, returning home late at night. When hired by outsiders to do tailoring work, he would stay away from home for days at a time. All the sons were busy working in the front shop, and their daughter-in-law, Liu, managed all the household affairs. Tao Hua was left alone in the backyard, bored and restless. So she tried coming to the front shop to chat with her sons, relieve their boredom, and lend a hand. Tao Hua was quite good at needlework; she was adept at buttonholes and sewing button loops. Ji Zu was an honest man, and Tao Hua was his stepmother, so it was normal for the family to chat and laugh together. After all, Li Shi's mother had often been in and out of the shop before, so he didn't pay much attention. But Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu were different. They were lecherous scoundrels who had long coveted Tao Hua's beauty. Her presence in the shop provided them with a rare opportunity. So they fawned over her, fed her rice porridge, and flattered her, using every means to seduce and provoke her. Wang Taohua grew up in brothels and had seen plenty of men's tricks and schemes. How could she not see through their desires? But now that she was the mistress of the house, she could only put on a show of dignity.

But in the end, she was a woman of wanton nature, and as time went on, she could not resist the advances of her two adopted sons, and finally became their possession.

That day, only Peach Blossom and Yang Yun were in the shop. Yang Yun deliberately dropped the measuring tape, causing it to fall and hit Peach Blossom's foot. The small tape measure was weightless and caused no real pain, but Yang Yun seized the opportunity to make a big fuss, repeatedly apologizing: "Mother, I am an unfilial son, I have hurt your foot, I am truly guilty, please forgive me. Let me massage it for you, to loosen your muscles and improve blood circulation!" He then used his hands to grasp her bound feet and began to stroke them.

Seeing this, Peach Blossom understood immediately and laughed: "You little rascal, trying to take advantage of me?" With that, she kicked him squarely in the groin.

Yang Yun cried out, clutching his stomach and crouching down: "Ouch, ouch! Mother, you are so cruel, you've kicked me to death!"

Seeing Yang Yun in pain, Peach Blossom quickly came over to comfort him: "Are you hurt anywhere?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Yang Yun pulled Tao Hua into his arms, and the two sat down on the ground together. Yang Yun grinned and said, "Mommy's little feet are so beautiful, they feel so good kicking me!"

Tao Hua quickly struggled to her feet, pointed towards the door, and spat, "In broad daylight, under the clear sky, with crowds of people on the street, you're in such a hurry, aren't you afraid of being seen?

So, you think you can get close to Mommy when it's quiet at night and no one is watching?" Yang Yun said with a lewd grin. "

Come on if you dare, let's see how I tease you!" Tao Hua said, then went to the back. Actually, Xiao Tao Hong had heard this kind of flirtatious banter many times in the brothel, and was used to it, so she didn't take it seriously.

She thought to herself, "If the old man dares to flirt with me tonight, he'll kick you out and fire you. Besides, you can't even get into the backyard!" My daughter-in-law, Liu, is a meticulous woman. She's very strict about keeping things at home, and even though we're sworn brothers, she wouldn't let you in in the middle of the night.

A few days later, the tailor shop received a big order: a wealthy family in Lu'an County was buying winter clothes for their entire family. To show off their wealth and generosity, they were giving each of their long-term workers, short-term servants, maids, and old women a set, to be tailored and sewn on-site to ensure a perfect fit. Because of the large workload and generous pay, it was decided that Zhang Xin and his son would go together, and it would probably take them about twenty days to return. Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu would remain at the shop to continue handling smaller orders. The grandfather specifically instructed them to take extra care of his stepmother and sister-in-law, and to be vigilant about the safety of the backyard. This instruction, however, inadvertently led to Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu gaining access to the backyard. After Zhang Xin and his son left, the two men, as expected, lived up to expectations, visiting their mother and sister-in-law in the backyard every few days to pay their respects, showing concern and putting on a show.

One evening, Yang Yun arrived at the backyard and knocked on the door. Liu Suzhen, the wife of Ji Zu, came out and, after confirming that he was her husband's sworn brother, opened the door to welcome him in. After exchanging a few pleasantries in Liu's room and taking his leave, he went to Wang's room, again offering a perfunctory greeting, but lingered for a long time. After much hesitation, Yang Yun finally said, "

That day, Mother said it wasn't convenient in broad daylight. Today it's late, and there's no one around, so please make it convenient for us!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Taohua knew Yang Yun was coming to pester her and quickly said, "You little rascal, you're quite clever. You haven't forgotten what happened that day. It was just a joke, but you took it seriously." Although we are of similar age, we are of the same generation as mother and son. How could I do such an incestuous thing? Give up this thought and go back to sleep!

A mother's joke has made Yang Yun miss her for several days. Please have pity on me! Besides, I went to great lengths to persuade my stepfather and son to redeem you and bring you home, just so I could be close to you and get intimate! Please grant my wish!

I am extremely grateful for your help and your feelings for me, but I can't do anything to betray Master Zhang and his son! In the end, it was they who spent money to rescue me from my misery!

Seeing Tao Hua's constant refusals, Yang Yun couldn't help but feel annoyed. He thought: You shameless prostitute, stop pretending to be a pure and virtuous woman. Let me expose your true colors and hurt you, and your true nature will be revealed. So he said: Mother is determined to remain faithful, and I dare not force you. "I've only heard from outsiders that Mother has a wonderful fragrance under her armpits. May I smell it? I'll leave immediately!" The unspoken message was: "Don't pretend! I even know you have body odor, so how could I not know about your past scandals?"

Sure enough, Peach Blossom's face immediately flushed crimson with shame, and she stammered, "You, you, what do you know? Please don't tell anyone! I, I, I have no face to live with!" Peach Blossom was originally a lowly prostitute, but the brothel gave her a beautiful facade, allowing her to rise to fame and gain the favor of Master Zhang, who redeemed her with a large sum of money, giving her her current status and the ability to hold her head high. If her past shameful deeds were to be revealed, everything before her—her husband's love, her son's respect, and the neighbors' treatment—might change, hence her great panic. "

Mother, rest assured, as long as my wish is granted, I will keep my mouth shut." Seeing that Tao Hua was listless, Yang Yun's thieving courage and lust grew considerably. He immediately rushed forward, hugged her tightly, and, disregarding the foxy stench, buried his head in her furry armpits, muttering, "I love this slut!"

Because Wang Tao Hua was a lowly prostitute, her relationships with men were extremely decadent, and her sexual needs were insatiable. Although she was grateful to Zhang Xin for redeeming her, she was also troubled by his old age and declining strength, which prevented him from satisfying her sexual desires. Yang Yun was a strong young man, and quite handsome. Under his teasing, Tao Hua's psychological defenses quickly crumbled. A raging fire of lust had already been ignited within her, and she cried out, "No, no! Just this once, never again!" They were more than willing, face to face, lips to lips, tongues to tongue, hands to hands, and went to bed together, undressing and making love.

Imagine, the union of two strong, young men and women—a perfect match, a clash of titans. Wasn't it far more intense than that old man's? They made love all night, still wanting more, until dawn when it was time to open the shop, and Yang Yun finally got up to leave. They secretly agreed that from now on, whenever the old man was away, around midnight, after their daughter-in-law Liu had completed her daily routine of checking the house and returning to her room, Tao Hua would unlatch the back gate, leaving it ajar, allowing him to sneak in without anyone knowing.

This went on for two or three days. Meanwhile, Zhang Xiu, seeing Yang Yun not returning home every night, became suspicious. One night, secretly following Yang Yun, he had just entered the backyard and was about to turn around and lock the gate when Zhang Xiu suddenly appeared, shouting: "Yang Yun, you sneak around, what a mess you've made! What should your punishment be?"

"Shh!" Yang Yun quickly put his index finger to his lips and whispered, "Keep it down, don't let my sister-in-law know, or everything will be ruined!" "

Why not take Liu Shi down with us too? Then neither Zhang Fei nor Li Kui can say who's the villain!" Zhang Xiu was even more wicked, actually coming up with such a vicious idea. "

Yes! Why didn't I think of that?" Yang Yun suddenly realized. Liu Shi's beauty was no less than Xiao Tao Hong's, and she was a few years older and more alluring. "If we each have one, wouldn't it be even more fun?" "

Today, let's have some fun with Xiao Tao Hong first, and then we'll plan how to lure Liu Shi into our trap."

Tao Hua, seeing the two of them come together, already knew that one had already hooked up with the other, and of course, the other couldn't refuse. So the three of them, one after the other or at the same time, with Peach Blossom being an expert in this area, using a variety of novel and creative methods, left Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu completely absorbed in their fun. Afterwards, the three discussed how to lure Liu into their trap. "

My daughter-in-law is a very proper person, living deep within the inner palace. Aside from going out to buy household necessities, she rarely interacts with the outside world, and I've never heard any news of her having any romantic affairs. Unlike me, Peach Blossom, who's fickle and easily seduced. Trying to seduce her won't be that easy!" Peach Blossom said, lacking confidence.

"Yes! This Liu, she always sits upright, eyes fixed straight ahead, quiet and reserved, the epitome of a chaste and virtuous woman. What if she resists to the death and causes trouble? It'll be hard to handle!" Yang Yun also expressed his concern. "

No, no! You don't know that a woman like Liu, who values chastity and is so concerned with saving face, would never reveal her loss of virtue once she's done so. She's the best at keeping secrets. Don't believe me? Let's try it!" Zhang Xiu is far more cunning and ruthless than Yang Yun. "Little Tao Hong can lure her here. We just need to do this and that, and we'll make her a docile lamb." "

As for our daughter-in-law, Liu Suzhen, although she's not of noble birth, she's a woman well-versed in traditional virtues and has dignified manners. She naturally despises and has no liking for women like Tao Hua, who come from brothels and behave frivolously." Since they lived in the same courtyard, it was impossible for Liu not to have noticed Tao Hua's secret rendezvous and adultery with Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu. Liu was a meticulous woman. She considered two things: first, she was her father-in-law's second wife, her stepmother, and couldn't afford to be too embarrassed; second, as a woman, it wasn't appropriate for

her to interfere in such matters. She could only keep a close watch on the house, maintain her chastity, and wait for her husband to return and report before making a decision. That day, the weather was clear and sunny, with a cloudless blue sky and a bright, crisp autumn air. On any other day, Liu would have invited some of her neighbors to go for a walk in the market to buy household items or drinks and food. But now that her husband was away, to avoid any unexpected incidents, it was best to be cautious and stay home. So she closed the door and did some needlework to pass the time. Suddenly, she heard a knock at the door. Peeking through the crack, she saw her stepmother standing alone outside. She opened the door and let her in. She asked, "Mother, what brings you here?"

"Suzhen, stop calling me 'Mother,' 'Mom,' and 'Mother' all the time. I'm actually four or five years younger than you! I'm not as experienced as you in dealing with people, handling affairs, and dealing with things. From now on, let's call each other sisters!"

Taohua smiled broadly, only saying the nicest things.

"No way! I wouldn't dare break the Zhang family rules. If my father-in-law and husband find out, they'll beat me half to death with the family law!" Liu Shi didn't like Taohua at all, so she spoke bluntly, implying that the Zhang family had rules, and she shouldn't misbehave and break them! "Mother, just say what you need to say quickly. I need to hurry up and do my needlework!" "

Suzhen, listen to me. I came here specifically to ask you for advice. I, Wang Taohua, grew up in a brothel. I haven't received any education, I don't know etiquette or rules, and I don't know how to treat people." "I've been in this Zhang family for four or five months now. I wonder if there's anything I've done or said that's not proper? You've been here for over a decade, you're very experienced, and everyone praises your competence. I hope you can give me some guidance."

Peach Blossom spoke very sincerely. "

What experience do I have? I'm truly unworthy of such praise!" Seeing Peach Blossom's sincerity, Su Zhen felt embarrassed to keep a stern face and intended to say a few polite words to get rid of her. Suddenly, an idea popped into her head, and she couldn't help but say it: "However, there's one thing I want to advise you on. Even though you and Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu are mother and son, you need to be mindful of your boundaries. This isn't a brothel. You need to be careful with your words and actions to avoid gossip!"

Upon hearing this, Peach Blossom blushed deeply and was very unhappy, thinking: "This woman has sharp eyes; she actually found out!" But don't be so smug, today I'll expose your true colors! On the surface, she still feigned not anger, but rather a humble acceptance, saying, "Sister is absolutely right. I was just used to that kind of behavior in the past; I really need to be more careful in the future. Talking with you, sister, has been incredibly beneficial. The weather is nice today, so I'll treat you to a meal at my place. I'll prepare some food and wine, and we can have a few drinks so I can properly listen to your teachings!"

This Liu Suzhen was an upright person, but she had a small flaw: in her spare time or when lonely, she liked to drink alone. Although not a heavy drinker, she often got drunk because of her low alcohol tolerance, and her actions became unsteady. Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu had noticed this, which was why they sent Tao Hua to invite her. Now, seeing that Tao Hua was inviting her for drinks, she became interested, overcame her previous misunderstanding, and happily went to Tao Hua's residence. Inside, a table laden with fine food and wine was laid out, its enticing aroma tempting the hungry. Without hesitation, she sat down and began to eat and drink. After three cups, she became talkative and her tongue seemed to loosen. Peach Blossom diligently poured her three more cups, and she became completely disoriented, unable to control herself. When Liu finally came to her senses, she found herself on top of a strong man, his erect penis thrusting in and out of her vagina. This man was Zhang Xiu. Only then did Liu realize she had been tricked and fallen for their scheme. She tried to struggle and resist, but Yang Yun and Peach Blossom held her down, rendering her immobile. Her lust had been aroused, and there was no turning back. She could only swallow her anger and accept their rape.

Afterwards, Peach Blossom seemed somewhat guilty, but there was nothing she could do. She could only offer gentle words of comfort: "Sister Suzhen, don't be too sad. What's done is done. Just accept your fate and accept what comes." "If you don't mind, the four of us can often enjoy ourselves together. Wouldn't that be more enjoyable than you staying with a bland husband?"

Zhang Xiu also threatened viciously: "If you submit to us, all will be well. But if you have any doubts, or tell your husband about this, we will immediately expose your adultery and make it impossible for you to live in Huoshan County or even Luzhou Prefecture!"

Sure enough, as Zhang Xiu predicted, Liu Suzhen, in order to save face, finally dared not tell Jizu about this matter, and obediently followed Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu's summons, reluctantly engaging in that shameful act. Thus, the four of them took turns sleeping together: Yang Yun slept with Tao, Zhang Xiu slept with Liu, Yang Yun slept with Liu, and Zhang Xiu slept with Tao, their desires for each other becoming increasingly intimate.

Zhang Xin and his son were away for more than a month before returning. As the saying goes, "If you don't want others to know, don't do it in the first place." As time went by, rumors about Xiao Taohong and the other three's secret rendezvous and adultery spread, eventually reaching the ears of the father and son. The two men believed that Liu, who had been with Zhang Xin for over a decade, was always upright and innocent, and would never do such a disgraceful thing. As for Xiao Taohong, she came from a brothel and was a promiscuous prostitute. Under the influence of outsiders, she might have been unable to change her old habits and gone astray. However, she was not Zhang Xin's official wife, but merely a courtesan he bought for amusement. Even if she had an affair, it wouldn't be a big deal. But Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu were too despicable, daring to bully their godfather. If this continued, they would be raising a tiger that would eventually cause trouble. Therefore, they decided to find an opportunity to dismiss the two men, and that would be the end of the matter.

Because of the return of Zhang Xin and his son, the games between Yang Yun, Zhang Xiu, Taohong, and Liu were disrupted, and they were naturally unhappy about it. So the two men secretly plotted to get rid of the Zhang family, seize the tailor shop, and take the two beauties. That day, Yang Yun handed Tao Hua a packet of poison and instructed her, "This is rat poison. Put it in Old Master Zhang's food and kill him. Then we can be husband and wife forever!"

Tao Hua was, after all, a weak woman. Hearing that she was to kill someone, she was already terrified and her hands and feet went weak. She hurriedly said, "

Master Zhang has been kind to me. I can't do it! Besides, what will happen after he dies? I have no idea. What if the matter isn't kept secret and gets out? Wouldn't I become a criminal who murdered her husband? That would mean being paraded through the streets on a wooden donkey and being torn to pieces! I dare not do such a despicable thing. It's better to do it like this, secretly. As long as we act discreetly and don't get caught, Master Zhang can't do anything to us!"

Seeing that Tao Hua was determined not to comply, Yang Yun also felt that the murder plan was not thorough enough, so he gave up on it.

It was nearing the end of the year, and Ji Zu informed his father that he was going to collect debts in another city and buy some New Year's goods on the way back. Zhang Xin suddenly had a brilliant idea and said, "I'll go with you this time. You go to collect the debts, and I'll turn back halfway. Those two scoundrels, Yang and Zhang, seeing that my father and I have both left, will surely come to harass your stepmother. I'll suddenly appear at night, catch them in the act, humiliate them, and at dawn I'll make them pack their bags and get out of here!" Father and son finished their discussion and went to prepare.

Ji Zu, unaware that his wife Liu was also involved, told her about it. Liu, being astute, thought: "Although my loss of virginity was forced, if I catch them in the act, I'll lose all face!" So, at dawn, she relayed her father-in-law's plan to Yang and Zhang, only intending to warn them not to come back that evening. However, the two men, enraged, cursed the old man: "We haven't even laid a hand on you yet, and you're already trying to provoke us!" Fueled by anger, they decided: "Since the old dog already knows, why not kill him first to avoid future trouble?" They immediately closed the shop, Zhang Xiu went back to his room to get a small axe for self-defense, and together with Yang Yun, followed Zhang Xin and his son.

Soon after leaving the county town, the father and son parted ways; the son went east to Jiugong Bay to collect debts, while the father went west to Wangjiang Bay to meet a friend, planning to return home in the evening to catch them in the act. Before parting, the son instructed his father: "Father, be careful in your actions tonight. They are all scoundrels. It would be best if you invited the village head Xu Fu and neighbor Xiao Hua to go with you, so you can have backup.

" "Don't wash your dirty linen in public! How can you let outsiders interfere in such matters? If word gets out, how will your stepmother face anyone?" It seems Zhang Xin still loves Tao Hua and doesn't want to hurt her.

But I still feel uneasy. The grandfather is still somewhat worried.

"It's alright. They are guilty, but we are in the right. Evil cannot prevail over good; what are we afraid of?"

Meanwhile, Zhang Xin arrived at Wangjiang Bay, met with some old friends, chatted for half a day, and then, seeing the sun setting, took his leave and returned. At the end of the year, although it was deep winter, the southern region of Luzhou Prefecture was still lush with vegetation, and the streams were unfrozen. Zhang Xin was humming a Huangmei opera tune as he hurried along the stream in the woods. Suddenly seeing Yang Yun and Zhang Xiu approaching, he was startled: Why are they here?

"Oh dear! Godfather. You're not young anymore, why didn't you tell us you were coming out? How could Jizu leave you unattended?

If something happened to you, how could we not worry? If I had known this would happen, one of us would have come with you. Now we've come to take you home." Zhang Xin was puzzled: How did they know I was here? How did they know I was going home that night? The two men had already grabbed him, one on each side, and dragged him into the dense forest. "

What are you going to do?" Zhang Xin struggled to ask. "

You old dog, I'll make sure you die knowing why!" The two men revealed their狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious/hideous) faces. "Let me tell you the truth, we two have been having an affair with your slut and your daughter-in-law. Your schemes were all told to us by your precious daughter-in-law! You can be ruthless, so we can be ruthless too! Don't blame us for being heartless, today is your death day, and next year this day will be your death anniversary!" [The whole story continues], Zhang Xiu swung his small axe at Zhang Xin's head. Perhaps it was his first time killing someone, and he was a little nervous, so he used too much force, and the axe became embedded in his skull, unable to be pulled out for a long time. Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bamboo, and he thought someone was passing by. In a panic, he pushed the corpse and the axe together into the lotus pond by the roadside, and then, fearing the body would float to the surface, he threw a large rock down to hold it down. The two hurriedly left the dense forest and returned home.

When they arrived home, it was already late. The two sneaked into Peach Blossom's room, feeling smug, and told her what had happened. Peach Blossom, upon hearing this, was terrified. Remembering her master's kindness, she was tormented by her conscience and couldn't help but burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably. Zhang Xiu, seeing this, angrily said: "What a woman's view! Don't you think about it? If that old dog catches us in our adultery, won't we be handed over to the authorities for investigation? Adultery is a crime that will not only result in execution but also death! We will have nowhere to be buried!"

"That's true, but murdering one's husband is punishable by a thousand cuts! Aren't you pushing me to my death? And what if the neighbors ask, 'Where is your husband?' How am I supposed to answer?"

Peach Blossom complained worriedly. "

What's so difficult about that? The master went out to visit friends. How would we know where he went? Everyone will say the same thing, 'I don't know,' deny everything, and then who can do anything to us!" Yang Yun suggested nonchalantly. "

No, this approach is somewhat inappropriate. There's still a patriarch left in the world." Zhang Xiu was not only meticulous but also ruthless. Following in his grandfather's footsteps, he was a man of many talents, capable of both cunning and ruthless ambition. He was a man of few words, yet he was also cunning and cruel. He was a man of many talents, yet he was also ruthless ...
