"Drunken Spring Breeze" - 3

Chapter Four: Spending lavishly to entertain guests, every night is filled with joy; Breaking a jade disc to welcome

seasons. Flowers follow the flowing water, unaware of sorrow, mistaking it for a perpetual bloom.
A delighted lover is etched in her heart, a heartbroken one frowns. Constantly seeking pleasure, she falls for Zhang and Li, never ceasing; her illness
returns with the return of wine.
"West River Moon"

Now, let's talk about Zhang San, a student of the Imperial Academy. He'd been seduced by a young prostitute, and with Mr. Yang's help, he decided to keep Hou Shuang as
his mistress, spending his days traveling and sightseeing. Fortunately, his family was wealthy, so they weren't completely destitute. It's just a pity he lost his third
daughter, and now, bored and listless, he relies on Ah Long for pleasure.

Time flies like an arrow, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye. The third daughter longed to try something new, but she was still
somewhat shy. One day, while chatting with Ah Long, I mentioned, "Zhang Cheng at home has become suspicious
of Ah Long's affairs, and his words are rather strange. I'll definitely find an excuse to get rid of him. But you
're seventeen this year, and it's becoming a bit inappropriate for you to be going in and out of the house. If you're truly committed to helping me
find a handsome young man, and we secretly meet a couple of times, I'll arrange for Qiu Hua to be your wife. I'll also
tell my husband that Zhang Cheng will no longer be needed; you'll be in charge of the accounts at the various inns. Is that alright?" Ah Long replied, "Thank you,
Mother." "Mother's kindness is something I can never repay, even with my life. But now that I have a wife and Your Majesty has other people to visit, I still
want to spend time with you." Third Sister said, "My husband is only home one or two nights a month.
You've been so kind to me; how could I possibly abandon you?" Ah Long said, "Your Majesty ordered the search, and only those who please
Her Majesty can be brought here. However, there's one problem: Zhang Jun and Zhang En have no real power, and their wives are both
good; they dare not disobey their mistress. Zhang Cheng, relying on his position as the accountant, wants to investigate thoroughly; it's not a safe
place." Third Sister said, "Now that my husband is back, I have a plan. Send them away first, and it will be fine
." Indeed:

It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hardest to guard against an arrow in the dark.

Now, Zhang Cheng was a clever man. His wife, Wang, was quite beautiful, and
both the old and third students of the Imperial Academy were skilled with him. Therefore, they entrusted Zhang Cheng with managing the accounts. Zhang Cheng, relying on his
husband's illicit affairs, naturally also relied on him to commit some wicked deeds. He once remarked, "Third Mistress doesn't seem like
she's living alone; after all, she's been taken advantage of by that little servant, Ah Long." Zhang Cheng replied, "Ah Long's inner clothes
are brand new; where did those silks and satins come from? I've long suspected this. This concerns my husband's reputation, so we can't make a fuss
. But I'm a little indignant. How can you devise a plan so that I can also take advantage of her and swindle some money from her
?"

Wang said, "That's not difficult. I always sleep in the inner room of the Empress's room from the inside, so it's never closed
. It's the easiest way to get in. The short windows in the outer room are always closed. These short windows lead to the west wing behind the hall
. This afternoon, I'll quietly open two of the windows. Tonight, you can quietly open two of the short windows,
peek in, and get to the bedside. If the Empress and Ah Long are asleep, just pretend to grab her head; they won't
refuse. If you don't see Ah Long, then don't do anything rash. If the Empress is awake, kneel down and beg; if she's asleep, just
move her body . Once you've done that, she won't be angry." Zhang Cheng was overjoyed and
followed the plan.

Meanwhile, the Third Mistress wanted to get rid of the troublesome Zhang Cheng. That afternoon, he instructed Ah Long, "Go quickly to
Bantang and ask your husband to come back temporarily. You should go now. Third Sister has important matters to discuss!" Zhang San, the student
, was entertaining guests with wine when a pleasure boat was moored in front of Bantang Temple, leaving Ah Long there to attend to his business and preventing him from
returning home . Third Sister, used to this, didn't care and simply went to sleep.

Around midnight, the daring Zhang Cheng quietly opened the short window and slipped inside. The inner room door
was ajar. He gently pushed it open halfway and slipped inside. The lamp on the table was half-lit, but he didn't
blow it out. He tiptoed to the bedside. Third Sister was fast asleep. Following his wife Wang's
instructions took off his clothes and slipped under the covers. He lifted Third Sister's legs, and with his hard member erect,
he thrust inside. Third Sister woke up from her dream, half-awake, still thinking of Ah Long. After fiddling around for half an
hour, groaning and laughing, she realized that the thing inside was half an inch longer and a full
circumference larger than Ah Long's, and incredibly hard. She then realized it wasn't Ah Long. She hurriedly asked, "Who are you? How dare you be so
insolent !" The man replied, "Your Majesty, it is I, Zhang Cheng, here to serve you." The Third Madam
cried out, "You servant! How utterly despicable! Qiu Hua, Wen Bi, get up quickly!" Qiu Hua answered first, "
Coming!" Zhang Cheng panicked and slipped out through the short window. The Third Madam lit the remaining lamp, shouting and
making a ruckus. Seeing that the two short windows were open, she realized he had entered through there. But she didn't know how he had opened the window
latch. The Third Madam told Qiu Hua to open the door and call for help. Qiu Hua said, "Your Highness, you mustn't open the door.
He knows the crime is serious. In the dead of night, with swords dangling, how can we handle him? It's better to wait until dawn when the whole family
is up, then we can reason with him." Third Sister said, "Your Highness is quite insightful . If Ah Long doesn't
return today, my husband will surely keep him here. We might come together early this morning." Qiu Hua said, "Your Highness is absolutely right
."

They sat and chatted idly. Third Sister said, "This servant is better than Ah Long,
but Ah Long is his confidant. Since my husband frequents brothels, I'll frequent them too. Let him find a few good ones, and we can keep them company
for a while ; that's not a wasted life. That old servant is getting jealous and has me all to himself. I'll take this
opportunity to have my husband chase him away." After a while, the rooster crowed three times, and it was broad daylight. The whole family
got up, and only then did Qiu Hua open the door.

Then Zhang Cheng's wife, Wang, entered the room and knelt on the ground, begging for forgiveness: "We, the prison guards,
were drunk and offended Your Highness. We deserve to die, please forgive us. If this gets out, it will be embarrassing for
Your Highness ." The Third Lady said, "Your servant has been extremely presumptuous! You always serve me with utmost care,
fine! When your husband returns, just say he offended me while drunk, and send him away."

Reader, why did she forgive him? She was a woman prone to infidelity, naturally
having feelings for everyone regardless of status. Last night's encounter had been very enjoyable; could her heart be made of stone? If
Zhang Cheng weren't an eyesore, she wouldn't have brought it up. Wang kowtowed, thanked her, and left.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Zhang San, the student, returned. Third Madam said, "Zhang Cheng, you scoundrel, entered the bedroom drunk
, hoping to commit adultery. I yelled at him, and he ran away. You're often not home, so this man is
unusable ." Zhang San, the student, immediately summoned Zhang Cheng and scolded him, "You scoundrel! Entering the bedroom drunk,
what crime have you committed?" Knowing that his mistress had forgiven him, Zhang Cheng said, "I was actually drunk and knew nothing."
Zhang San said, "So drunk, how could he not neglect his duties? He deserves to be beaten." He was given ten strokes of the cane
and immediately expelled, forced to hand over all his accounts.

Because of settling accounts, Zhang San, the student, couldn't leave and ended up having sex with his third wife at home
. Little did he know that his third wife had already enjoyed another one last night, as evidenced by the hanging branch:

"Last night we did some filthy things again, and tonight my dear husband entered my room again. My dear husband held his hard
penis in his heart, regardless of size or length. Who knew this slut
was already so full of adulterous schemes?"

The next day, Zhang San, following his third wife's advice, handed over all the inn's accounts to
A Long to collect. Zhang Cheng and his wife, only wanting a moment of pleasure, were both expelled.

Zhang San, the student, went out to play as usual, and then, following Mr. Yang's advice, made arrangements to go to Nanjing to be imprisoned. He went to
the old brothel for another round of pleasure.

Third Sister was going to marry Qiuhua off to Along. Who in the family wasn't afraid of him? Who wouldn't flatter him?
Along was grateful for his promotion and diligently found three or four beautiful women to stay with. He was delighted with each one
, and each one lasted only two or three nights. From then on, his face aged, and his courage grew. However, after ten months, he needed to
raise the child and temporarily stopped seeking other women. It wasn't until eleven months later that he had a full-armed son. On that very day,
his father, Gu Wailang, died. Being a new mother, she couldn't go, so she instructed Zhang Jun to go to Bantang and report: "
The joy of the arrival of the young master and the loss of Old Master Gu require you to return in two or three days." These were important
matters , not something to be taken lightly.

The news of both joy and sorrow arrived in Bantang. Mr. Yang was about to urge him to go to Nanjing, so he
said to Zhang San, the student: "Next year is the year of the Ji-You imperial examination, at noon. You should go and sit in the prison this year. Even if you have no learning,
you can still get a title in the imperial examination and deceive the world. There are two sisters in the old brothels and the Pearl Market in Nanjing,
who are really charming and beautiful. If you go and have a go, I'm afraid the girls in Suzhou won't even have a place to stand, let alone a
seat. Take advantage of these two important events, give some gifts, and send Lao Shuang back!" Zhang San did
as he was told, sent Hou Shuang home, and went into the city with Mr. Yang.

When San Niangzi saw her husband arrive, she was very happy and asked to see her newborn son. Zhang San then
instructed: "Hire a wet nurse so you won't be impatient." He also said: "Mr. Yang is out, so please take some
wine and porridge out. I will come back after visiting my father-in-law's family for the funeral." After saying this, he left. Mr. Yang then
sent someone in to say, "I advised my husband to send the young lady away; she's staying home now.
She'll leave after the seven-day mourning period!" Third Sister smiled at Qiu Hua and
said, "I can't do it now. If I leave after the seven-day mourning period, will I still rely on my husband for pleasure?" Qiu Hua laughed and said, "Your Highness is afraid no one will do it? You insist on your
husband's pleasure?" They joked for a while.

Zhang San, the student, returned and remained in the school. After drinking some wine and eating some porridge with Mr. Yang,
he went into the room and said to Third Sister, "Now that you're in labor, you can't do anything, are you going to leave me to sleep alone
?" Third Sister replied, "Whatever! Qiu Hua is so seductive, I think I should give her to Along. I
've been trying to win you over these past few days, why don't you take her virginity tonight?" Zhang Sanjiansheng said, "I'm afraid
she's not a virgin anymore!" Third Sister said, "She follows me day and night, she's still a virgin
!" Zhang Sanjiansheng was extremely lustful, so he took her. Qiu Hua had
been with Along before, but not many times, and she wasn't very virgin. Therefore, Zhang Sanjiansheng didn't care much for her, just treating her as his maid
.

Three days later, Zhang Sanjiansheng said, "This Qiu Hua is quite good." He went back to Third Sister's bed,
repaired the broken stove, and then planned to collect five hundred taels of silver to go to Nanjing to serve his sentence. Third Sister kept him at
her parents' house for a few days, then come with me to offer sacrifices before you go to Nanjing. Zhang San, the student, obeyed and stayed
at his father-in-law's house until the funeral was over. He then went back with Third Sister to offer sacrifices before returning home
. Third Sister kept only the newly hired wet nurse, Zhu, with her, sending Qiu Hua back to serve her
master.

However, Zhang San had also taken advantage of the young maid, Wen Bi. This girl was young and still a virgin
, and was in great pain, leaving a trail of blood. Zhang San had some affection for her, which made him
hesitate to go to Nanjing.

Third Sister, living with her parents and working as a wet nurse, had the opportunity to seduce two or three men
. This wet nurse, Zhu, originally came from a sewing workshop, a semi-private establishment, and was skilled at
providing for the master's family. As long as she flattered the mistress and received money, she would do it. She stayed for half a month, concealing
the loss. Only then did Third Sister bid farewell to her brothers and return to her husband's home.

When Zhang San, the Imperial Academy student, mentioned Wenbi, Third Sister, who hadn't taken it to heart, feigned a change in expression and said, "
You've already defiled both of my maids, and I haven't even touched your servants. Quickly buy two handsome servants for
me." Zhang San, the Imperial Academy student, said, "No! No!" Third Sister said, "Only the magistrate is allowed to set fires,
but the common people aren't allowed to light lamps. Do you think I'm not committing adultery?" Zhang San, the Imperial Academy student, immediately shouted, "
Nonsense !" Everyone fell silent.

Three or four days later, Zhang San, the Imperial Academy student, packed his bags, called Zhang Jun and Zhang En to accompany him,
and set off for Nanjing with Mr. Yang. He instructed A Long at home to be diligent in keeping accounts and taking care of the household. Then she said to Third
Sister , "Since you intend to marry Qiuhua to him, quickly choose an auspicious day and arrange it!" Third Sister
, being virtuous and kind, gave two taels of silver as a gift to Mr. Yang. She then sent a maid to tell him, "My husband
has finished his sentence in prison, and I beg Mr. Yang to quickly send him home." Mr. Yang agreed and added, "Please
thank Your Highness for me."

From then on, after Zhang San, the student, left, Third Sister was like a horse without a saddle, free
to roam as she pleased. Her brothers knew a little about it, but because they regularly gave her things, they pretended
not . One day it was Zhang Lang, the next it was Li You; if she was having a good time, she'd keep him for a few more nights,
and they'd give him ten or half a catty of silver. Even if she was a pretty girl, they'd still give her generous gifts. With Granny Zhu and
Ah Long working as prostitutes, Third Sister never slept alone again. There is a song, "Jade Branches Intertwined," as proof:

A woman of loose morals fears an empty room, needing company in her leisure. As soon as the water clock stops, there are many feasts, letting her flirt and
commit adultery. The general storms in, following her into the pass; who says it's as treacherous as a winding mountain path? Alas, her beautiful figure fades like withered flowers and a waning moon,
letting the madman look long and short.

Now, let's talk about Third Sister, who has fallen for a lover, not just for shooting, but seemingly for winning by quantity. Hearing that there's an interesting man named Guan
in Shantang , she has Ah Long send four taels of silver to hire him.
Countless men come and go, only slightly less than a brothel, except for the cost of hosting and paying for lodging. Fortunately, some neighbors are unaware
, and they all gather in twos and threes, plotting to catch her in the act. But then he laughed and said, "If it were just one or two, we
could easily catch them. Their master has been gone for two months; there must have been a hundred or so coming and going day and night.
Which one have we caught so far?" There was a man surnamed Wang, the third in his family, called Sao Wang San, who was about forty years old.
He was in his thirties, cunning and extremely lustful. He was considered a well-known and influential figure in the area. He told
the crowd , "We don't need to catch them
in the act. We just need to gather about ten neighbors, go to their house, demand wine and money from them, and wait until they become too arrogant and ignore us before we deal with them."

He gathered the crowd, and the next day went to the Zhang family's hall, loudly proclaiming, "We, the villagers, have
something important to say to Third Sister." That day, Ah Long had gone to the inn to get money, and the wet nurse came out and asked
, "What is it?" Wang San replied, "We all know about Third Sister's promiscuity, and
we all want to catch her in the act. But such a woman is unwilling to do such a cruel thing.
We need to plan carefully and appease her so as not to expose our shame." The wet nurse said, "The lady is fine
; whatever you do, we are not afraid." The crowd then began to shout in unison.

Third Sister had already heard everything from behind the hall. She called Qiuhua to follow her out and said to everyone
, "Please sit down, everyone. Let's talk this out. This wet nurse hasn't been here for a year; she doesn't know how to speak properly. There's no need
to take it to heart." Wang San bowed deeply, and everyone else bowed in return. Wang San said, "Third Sister is the one
who understands reason. We wouldn't dare interfere in the Empress's affairs. We're just a little envious, unwilling to let
a lady like Sai Xishi be enjoyed by others. We're all men, yet we've missed out right before our eyes."
Third Sister smiled and said, "So what do you want now?" Wang San said, "My surname is Wang, and my name is Sassy
Wang San. None of my brothers are not sassy, and we know that Third Sister isn't one to stay in a
long-term relationship. We only ask that Third Sister grant each of us one night and give us a tael of silver for a mat. We'll let you do as you please
and won't stop you. If anyone acts recklessly, I, Wang San, will support you.
We'll make sure that even if Third Master returns, we won't tell you anything, from the Cold Food Festival to the Lantern Festival." Qiu Hua laughed and said, "Wanting both sleep and money,
this..." "It's a lose-lose situation." Third Sister said, "This girl doesn't know how to talk. I only
occasionally seek pleasure because my husband is rarely home. Do you expect me to pay for prostitution? But too many people will cause trouble, and arguments will only escalate
. Wang Sanguan, write me a guarantee, and I'll comply." Wang San said, "Sure
! Sure! I've written the guarantee and brought it in. But when does it start?" Third Sister said, "You must also
agree that there can be no second night. If I like someone else, that's fine. And no jealousy or resentment."
Wang San... Everyone agreed, "Of course!" Third Sister said, "Tomorrow morning, Wang Sanguan will write a guarantee
and also write the amount of silver on it. There are nine people in total, and their names are written on it. I will give
nine taels of silver to Wang Sanguan and distribute it to everyone. The arrival date cannot be forced. Everyone must come to make an appointment within two months
; I will not break my promise. If anyone is older, unwilling to have fun, or afraid of their wife and
dares not stay overnight, I will give them another tael of silver." At that moment, Old Zhang and Old Ma, who did not want
to stay overnight, explained the situation and went out together.

The wet nurse said, "How can Third Mistress allow him to do whatever he wants, regardless of right or wrong?" Third Mistress replied, "
My neighbor is very important. How can I enjoy myself if I don't settle him down?" The wet nurse said, "Your Highness
is right. But there's one thing, how can I bear that rough fellow?" Third Mistress said, "I'll
just have to let him do it, even if it means tilting my head and closing my eyes."

The next day, the lecherous Wang San delivered the guarantee, but Ah Long was still in the inn and hadn't returned. The following night, a young man
arrived very early. When Third Mistress saw him, she suddenly felt aroused and invited him in. She removed only her lower garments
and began to do it on the edge of the bed. Before long, Wang San gave up, saying, "Third Lady is
one in a million. I was completely out of my depth, so it was easy to finish. I still need Your Highness to give generously."
Third Lady said, "You don't need to say anything. But some of the neighbors are greedy. Why not give each of them an extra
tael of silver? It'll save you the trouble of dealing with the filthy ones." Wang San said, "I have two young brothers,
Chen Liu and Zhao San, both young men who aren't greedy. For the other six,
I'll give them two taels each and return the money."

From then on, only the little maid Wenbi didn't care about him or bother to
settle him. Everyone in the household helped Third Lady. The neighbors shot and won silver
, and when they won, there was no obstruction. They came and went like a bucket going up and down Tiger Hill, making
quite a scene.

Some time passed, and it was nearly the twelfth lunar month. Zhang San, a student of the Imperial Academy, sent Zhang Jun home with another five hundred taels of silver.
The letter read: "The Chancellor of the Imperial Academy is not being allowed to return; he's spending the New Year in Nanjing. If the family
isn't enough, you can find another pair of men, or young servants—choose whatever you like, regardless of price." This
was all a pretext for his own extravagant spending at the brothel. Leaving him alone at home during the New Year made him
uneasy. He'd let him go halfway, but who knew that Third Sister would be so brazen?

During their conversation, Third Sister asked if Zhang San had any concubines in the brothel. Zhang Jun said, "I've leased
a young lady from the Gu family on Old Courtyard Street, named Gu Jie, for thirty taels a month. My husband left someone
to watch over a monk's quarters on Jiming Mountain, so we can go there and eat there for free, which is cheaper than in Suzhou
. However, we've had several sets of clothes made and bought a couple of gold and jade hairpins, costing twenty or thirty taels of silver
. I'm afraid it'll cost even more for the New Year." Third Sister, fearing Zhang Jun might be at home, had instructed
her wife not to let him know. Feeling somewhat annoyed, she hurriedly urged Along to gather five hundred taels of silver and send
him to Nanjing.

At that time, Suzhou was seeing a new trend of embroidered skirts, and Third Sister liked to wear jackets with a hundred butterflies, hence the nickname "Hundred Flowers
Zhang Third Sister." Sometimes she would take her wet nurse and maids to Tiger Hill for a few days, and sometimes she would hire
a large boat and stay on it for a few nights. She would call anyone she liked, regardless of whether they were strangers or laypeople.

As the twelfth lunar month drew to a close, a craftsman was suddenly summoned and made to open a small door beside his large, heated bed.
His bedroom was located in the western part of the area, outside a narrow path with no houses inside. It was just
a walkway between north and south. This door led directly to the partition wall of the bed; removing one partition wall revealed
a bright and clear view of the outside. The man could enter without needing to worry about the front door; he could simply step inside.

On New Year's Eve, Third Sister instructed, "Ah Long! You must have two people with me for the festival. If you don't have
two , you are not allowed to be with Qiu Hua." Ah Long replied, "Everyone must stay home, have
family reunion dinners, pay respects to their ancestors, and wish for good fortune in the new year. Who would want to spend the night out? I don't even have one, let alone two.
Unless, in the third house of the East Granary, there is a troupe of young actors, two or three of whom are good actors, all only seventeen
or eighteen years old , and without wives. Give them the money from one performance, and choose two or three to accompany you, Your Highness. They are greedy for
the new profit, so they will surely agree." Third Sister was delighted and gave Ah Long a two-tael silver ingot
, telling him to hurry.

That night, there was a feast of fish, meat, wine, and food—everything was provided. It wasn't until dusk that Ah Long received his money.
Three young men, one male and two female, entered. They all bowed and were seated in the room. Soon, wine
was laid out , and they sat down at the table. The third young lady said, "My husband is imprisoned in Nanjing. Tonight, I'll trouble you
three to drink three cups and have some fun. Tomorrow morning is New Year's Day, and I'll give you generous gifts for good luck
." The three all agreed. After drinking and eating, they washed and shaved, and went back to
their original positions, turning off the lights.

The youngest, surnamed Yuan, was nineteen years old. He asked, "Which one
will accompany you, Third Lady?" The third young lady replied, "A large canopy bed; even with two more, there's still plenty of room." The three
looked at each other and laughed, then stripped naked and climbed into bed. There were two
quilts on the bed, and the two women shared one quilt, sleeping together at one end. One of them called out, "Yuan She! You
sleep with the lady."

The third woman had just finished urinating when she got into bed. She thought to herself, "No woman in the world has ever had
three men taking turns. Tonight is going to be a great night. But I wonder if the young man
can last ?" She saw Yuan Sheng sleeping at one end, and Shen Dan and Yu Dan at the other. The second
woman, being closer, slipped under Yuan Sheng's quilt and touched him. His penis was long, but not very thick
. She lifted it to his belly, pulled it inside, and thrust in and out. Before she had even thrust thirty times, Yuan
Sheng cried out and ejaculated. She told him to crawl over and let Shen Dan take his turn. His
penis was smaller and couldn't reach her climax. After seventy or eighty thrusts, he also ejaculated. She then told him to crawl over and let
Yu Dan take his turn. Yu Dan said, "I've heard that if you keep doing this, the semen will come into contact and cause a sore from fighting. I'm not
coming." Third Sister said, "Do you think I'd just turn my back on someone else? Fine! The tea is
still warm, wrapped in cotton. Let me wash it before we do it."

She got up and poured the tea into the tub to wash her private parts, which then flowed out in a torrent.
Third Sister said, "I'm ashamed, I'm quite the flirt." After washing, she climbed into bed. Yuan
Sheng climbed over first and shared the bed with Shen Dan. Third Sister slipped into Yu Dan's bed, thinking he was only
seventeen or eighteen, still a young woman, but she didn't know he had been with many women before, and his penis was longer and
thicker than the previous two. He mounted her, thrusting straight into her flower core, rubbing and grinding like a chicken pecking, making Third
Sister cry out in a soft voice, "My darling! You're killing me!" After two rounds, a full thousand
thrusts, she couldn't ejaculate.

Third Sister hugged him, saying, "Sweetheart! Sleep on me.
Don't . Stay with me one more night, and I'll give you ten taels of silver as a New Year's bonus." Yu Dan replied, "
I have to pay respects to my parents early in the morning, and I also have to go to the troupe leader's house. It's a yearly tradition;
we put on about ten plays. After the play, I'll come. It's even more fun when those two aren't around." With that
, he lay down on Third Sister's body.

Early the next morning, Ah Long opened the door with a loud bang, waking them up. They had to get up, have
breakfast with the three of them, give each of them one tael of silver, and give Yu Dan some advice before letting him go. That evening, Yu Dan indeed came again
, staying for five or six days. He received twenty taels of silver from Third Sister, who instructed him to come often and not to be
unfaithful . Yu Dan was quite pleased with himself.

What will happen next? Let's find out in the next chapter.

Chapter Five: The Heavenly Order, though weakened, is revived; The Woman's Conduct, though Unfinished, Never Ends.

Each time she thinks of raising her limbs, she longs for a half-arm across her body. Why should a skilled man learn to play the sheng?
Let the butterflies and bees vie beneath the crabapple blossoms.
The deep green pond flows gently, the secluded stream meanders. Late at night, she frequently calls out to her beloved, stirring her heart and soul,

"The Tale of Nan Ke Zi"

Now, let us speak of the seductive Third Sister, who seduces and flirts with young men and women. People from all over the prefecture and surrounding counties know of
the Hundred Flowers Zhang, the Third Sister. In the second month of spring, when peach blossoms and willows are in full
bloom, even respectable women feel a pang of melancholy, let alone the Third Sister, who has long been known for her wantonness. Ah Long, seducing her, found a stable
boy, skilled at brothel machinations, who lured respectable young men and dissolute women from humble families, profiting from the encounters. However, he
dared not do anything immoral to the wealthy and powerful. Ah Long brought him in, and after meeting the Third Sister,
he exclaimed, "The Third Sister's beauty and charm are unparalleled in Suzhou!" The praise spread far and wide. She
brought along more than a dozen libertines, some from inside the main gate, others from behind the inner walls, to
have . Third Sister never went without making sure they were full.

On February 19th, the whole city went to Guanyin Mountain to burn incense. Some were there solely for the purpose of burning
incense an excuse; men looked at women, and women looked at men. Third Sister hired a small pleasure boat,
took her wet nurse and maids, and went to Guanyin Mountain to play. The boats were numerous, as were the people. On the boats
were musicians playing the shifan (a type of traditional Chinese stringed instrument), and others playing the xiao (a type of vertical flute) and singing. The people were old, young, tall, short,
fat, thin, beautiful, ugly, wearing hats, wearing headscarves, and women—ten
or five to a boat, making quite a scene. When Third Sister saw a handsome young man, she wished she could fly over to his boat
or beckon him to come aboard so she could get closer to him.

They stopped at Xixin Bridge. The river was crowded with small boats. On the bank, a sedan chair, with paper horses and incense sticks for Guanyin
placed , was being carried by a man. The three sedan chairs were quite
ostentatious. People along the way saw it. Some said it looked like a young woman, others said it was a brothel. Then
they saw the wet nurse holding the two-year-old child and said, "This is a respectable family. Why are you being so frivolous?"
Others saw that she was wearing a jacket with a hundred butterflies and laughed, "Yes! Yes! This is
Zhang San Niang, the most sought-after beauty in the eastern half of the city." As they talked and laughed, San Niang, though old in appearance
, was bold. She blushed and covered herself with her fan.

Upon arriving at the Guanyin Hall, the wet nurse asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, didn't you do that little official last night
? Forgive me! Forgive me! Why are you burning incense?" Third Sister replied, "I've washed and washed again, it's alright
." The wet nurse said, "Your Highness, you mustn't. Why don't I burn the incense for you? You stand here for a moment
, I'll burn the incense and then we'll go together." Third Sister had no choice but to have Qiuhua stand beside her, waiting
outside .

After the wet nurse had been gone for a while, a young man suddenly walked a few steps, turned back, and smiled,
saying, "So it's Third Sister Zhang here!" Third Sister looked closely and
recognized him as Guo Si, the man who had been so skilled at seduction half a month ago. Because of his skill, Third Sister had kept him for three or four nights, hence her
clear recognition. Third Sister was afraid to descend the mountain, and with people carrying shackles along the way, she said, "Brother Guo Si, I didn't
bring my steward, and the three women have hired a sedan chair. Could you come down the mountain with me? I'll thank you another day."
Guo Si said, "It's alright. Today, a group of young men are playing a game of 'Ten-Fold Music' on the boat. After burning incense, we'll
have some meat and wine. The Third Lady is actually on my boat. Let's go back and have a good time, consider it a night of passion.
" The Third Lady said, "Wait a moment, let's wait for the wet nurse to come and discuss it." The wet nurse arrived. The Third
Lady explained her intentions, and the wet nurse said, "A respectable woman shouldn't be so frivolous." Guo Si said, "
Now, when we get off the boat, don't say you're Zhang Third Lady. I'll just say you're Li Yiniang. Who will know?"

The Third Lady's fate was sealed; it was just as she had been ordained. Overjoyed, he said, "Now that I'm surnamed Li,
nobody recognizes me. I'm so bored at home all day; this is a good chance to relax. Nanny, you and the eldest maid
stay in your own boat, and I'll play around on the big boat for a while. When we get to Changmen, the big boat can't enter the city.
I'll just cross over to the big boat myself." Seeing his insistence on going with Guo Si, the nanny said she would let him have his way, and they all
got into the sedan chair. There were still many people on the road, but with a man present, no one spoke.

When they reached the boat, the nanny and Qiuhua disembarked from their original boat, while Guo Si, in his large, curved boat, went straight to
the harbor . They walked another arrow's distance. Guo Si alighted from the sedan chair first and pulled San Niangzi onto the boat. Everyone on the
boat bowed and asked, "Fourth Brother, where did you invite this lady?" Guo Si replied, "Li Yi Niang is
new here, and I specially invited her to meet you all." They then played a set of ten rounds of music,
ordered the boat to set sail, and set out wine and food. They played drinking games, but San Niangzi claimed she didn't know how to play and refused
to supervise. The group of dissolute young men, like mad bees and butterflies, were extremely agitated. San Niangzi
was also very excited when she saw this group. After three cups, the whole boat was dancing and gesturing wildly.
Among them, San Niangzi took a fancy to Zhang Erguan and Lu Erguan. She gave Zhang Erguan a golden earring
and Lu Erguan a handkerchief with a fine linen. She secretly inquired about their addresses and said, "I'll have Ma
Xiuyang come and invite you." They made a ruckus, touching and embracing each other, acting like madmen.
Guo Si was left out in the cold.

Upon arriving at Changmen, the wet nurse and Qiu Hua were waiting on the boat. No one knew how Third Sister had managed to get
Zhang Erguan onto her boat, taking him home together to do her bidding. The boatman, his tongue
lolling out, exclaimed, "Surprising! Surprising! So she's run a brothel!" Indeed:

A strong wind blows through the paulownia tree, and others will naturally gossip.

Now, Third Sister, shameless and bold, was used to being taken advantage of. Every spring, the spring
breeze her joints numb. Like a drunkard, she would remain sober until winter, refusing to wake up. She
had slept with countless men, from Zhang to Li in the morning and evening.

There was a man named Xu San on horseback, originally a wild and unrestrained young scholar. He was extremely fond of whoring and stealing women
, and he became involved with Third Sister. In June, the weather is so pleasant that no one needs to wear clothes or use blankets, making it even more enjoyable than cold weather. That
night , the moon was full on the fifteenth of the lunar month. Behind Third Sister's bed was a spacious and bright courtyard, perfect for moon-viewing.
They moved the wine and food into the courtyard, ate for a while, and everyone became happy. They then made a great fuss on the benches. Xu
San lifted her two small feet, but didn't insert them; he glanced at them and saw only a few fine hairs,
a tight slit, and laughed, "This one is good. I wonder how many I've been through. Tonight, under this
bright moon, I'll shatter your heart!" The Third Sister laughed, "If you can shatter it, then you're truly good
. I'm afraid your heart won't even shatter, and you'll be bowing down at the gate, making me laugh!" Xu San suddenly lowered
her feet, pulled them back, and licked them, his mouth full of her juices. There was no foul smell, only a slight fishy odor
. He laughed, "Interesting! Interesting! So fragrant!" The Third Sister was extremely aroused and cried out, "
My darling, hurry up!" Xu San moved up and down, in and out, thrusting and pulling, more than
a thousand times. Although the Third Sister was wanton and had been with many men, she had never experienced such ruthlessness.
She cried out for her darling and her beloved flesh from below. Her juices flowed pitifully, her vaginal fluids leaking incessantly. Suddenly
he cried out, "I'm dead! I'm dead! My heart's flower is probably shattered there." He became drowsy,
as if asleep. Xu San slowly pulled and tugged, reviving him and calling out, "Sweetheart!
Stop! I've never seen anyone so skilled since I was born. I've lost so much, I'm really tired."
Xu San said, "Have you bowed down at the gate now?" He pulled and tugged for a while longer before finally ejaculating. He then
composed a seductive song, mocking the Third Sister's lewdness. The song went:

"You're really quite alluring, and even more so with your beautiful face. I fired a barrage of 'heart-piercing cannons,' and your vaginal opening remained open,
displaying your might. But who knew that when my general arrived at the Nangshan kiln, the female vanguard hurriedly cried out, 'Let's withdraw the troops and bow down at
the gate,' leaving only a laugh.

Don't say the Third Sister is lewd at home." Zhang San, a student in the Imperial Academy, spent some money in Nanjing to have the gatekeeper
deliver two essays on the day of the imperial examination, and he ranked third in the first
class. According to custom, he was exempt from the usual 3rd, 6th, and 9th days of the month for attending examinations; he only had to go to the academy on the 1st and 15th. He spent his days entertaining Gu Jie in the old courtyard.

Seeing that the Double Seventh Festival had passed, and after the 15th, those going to the capital for the provincial examinations would be able to enter the city daily.
Xu San , who had also been fortunate enough to pass the imperial examinations, also entered the city by land through Tongji Gate with a friend. He found a place to stay
on Chaoku Street, near the old academy. Admiring Gu Jie's reputation, he intended to send him a small gathering in early August, hoping
he could rest for a night or two and cool off before taking the exams. He went to Gu Jie's house several times, but was told that he was booked by someone and
could not receive guests.

That night, the fourth of the month, Xu San was drinking with friends at Sha Si's house when he inquired about Gu Jie. Sha Si said
, "It's that Zhang San from Suzhou who's keeping you!" Xu San thought for a moment and said, "I think it's
that Zhang San from Xinjia Lane? Have you seen him, Fourth Master?" Sha Si said, "He's been to my house before. He's
the one who serves as my attendant. He calls him Mr. Yang." Xu San said, "No need to say it's him." After drinking some
more, he and two wild and unrestrained friends went to the Gu family's house, stopped, and said, "We want
to see your lady." The Gu family replied, "She's being kept by a guest." Xu San started cursing, which startled
Zhang San, the student, and Mr. Yang, who came out.

Xu San cursed, "Zhang San the turtle from Xinjia Lane! I almost shot his wife to death.
And his wife was someone I kept! Does he think I can't even see the young lady he kept? We'll break in!
We're not afraid of him!" Zhang San, the student, was so angry he was speechless. Mr. Yang said, "
Go inside now, and let me and Gu Jie see him and send him away." Zhang San, the student,
obeyed went inside, still seething. Mr. Yang and Gu Jie came out and met Xu San. Xu
San, without saying a word, simply remarked, "This sister is not as good as Zhang San's wife. Leaving her at home entertaining guests while he himself
keeps prostitutes here, isn't that like throwing away gold for bricks?" He gave a haughty bow and left.

Mr. Yang and Gu Jie went into the room, and Zhang San pulled Mr. Yang into the courtyard, whispering:
"I've been away from home for too long, like a dissolute woman who's gone astray. Going back to
the examination hall is pointless, and my term is almost up. I might as well ask for leave and go home quickly." Mr. Yang said, "After coming out
, you should still go back to the examination hall, scribble a few lines on your paper, as long as you don't post it. You don't
know , there are even more clueless people than you who go back! Besides, you, Ling Zheng, whether you're upright or not,
it doesn't matter if you stay a few days. Don't make a fuss when you go back, it'll damage your reputation. Just keep the internal and external security very tight , and things
will be peaceful." Zhang San, the student, followed his advice.

After finishing his duties, he asked for leave from the Chancellor, bought some gifts like soap, hired a
large boat, and set off for Suzhou. Gu Jie, having been away for so long, was somewhat reluctant to part. He saw him off at
the Shuixi Gate, shed a few tears, and then left. Zhang San, the student, was furious all the way home,
thinking about how to assert his authority as a husband. Then she suddenly thought to herself, "It's because I left him alone in his empty room in Nanjing
that this happened. Everyone should admit their fault." They traveled for four days.

They arrived home on the 20th of August. Third Sister had been indulging in the Mid-Autumn Festival for days, ruining her health
. In the afternoon, she was drowsy and lay in bed. Hearing that her husband had returned, she had no choice but to get up.
Although Zhang San, the scholar, was furious, he didn't say anything. One bowed, the other returned the greeting. Third
Sister asked, "Was the journey safe?" Zhang San replied, "The scandal at home reached Nanjing, almost
killing me with anger. How could it be safe?" Third Sister blushed and dared not utter a sound. Zhang San shouted
, "Get some wine and food out, I'll eat with Mr. Yang. He'll have to go home after eating!" and
went .

While Third Sister was getting the wine and food out, she asked Zhang Jun to ask him why her husband was angry.
Zhang Jun repeated the words of the riding scholar Xu San. Third Sister said, "He's been in Nanjing for almost
a year , and my wife, being a young man, can't really blame me. Let's have a good fight." Zhang Jun
said, "Since Your Highness has done something wrong, you should be more patient." Third Sister finished the meal and went to the study
to prepare for a fight with her husband. But Zhang San, the student, was sleeping in the study. He had locked the back
door from the inside, only allowing it to be opened the next morning. That night, Third Sister was afraid he might suddenly barge in
, so she didn't dare invite anyone in through the side door to sleep. It was truly a case of:

Even if all the water of the West River were used up, it wouldn't wash away the shame on her face today.

Third Sister temporarily put this aside. Meanwhile, Mr. Yang, having been away from home for a long time, had about a hundred
taels of silver . He paid his bills and went home to renovate his house, buy some supplies, and indulge in some good food. But when he arrived,
he found only two small rooms, one for living and one for guests. Just as Mr. Yang was about to knock on the door, he suddenly heard a man's voice
inside . He stopped and listened carefully. The
man said, "Let's get this done quickly. I have things to do tomorrow morning and need to go back tonight." His wife replied, "
I won't let you go back!" Hearing this, Mr. Yang quickly peeked through the crack in the door. He saw his
wife sitting on a man, seemingly without a skirt. Enraged,
he kicked the door open. The man, in the dim light, ran wildly.
Mr. Yang rushed in, and the two of them tumbled to the ground. They quickly got up, but the man had already run away
.

Mr. Yang roared like thunder, beating his wife and throwing her to the ground several times, cursing, "
You good-for-nothing wretch, why do you do such a shameless thing?" His wife replied, "It's really
hard . You don't know Zhang San's wife, she sleeps with several men in one night. What am I? Look at you
, you're rarely home, it's rare for someone to come and help you, you should at least thank them, why
are you throwing a tantrum?" Mr. Yang said, "You dog, I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to meet
a woman like you, it's a misfortune for our family! Today, either you get out, or I leave!" His wife said, "
I'm used to living here, I'm not leaving. Go as far as you want, it's up to you."
Without another word kicked aside the stool beside him and stormed out the door.

Meanwhile, next door to Zhang San's house lived a scholar named Zhu, who was also a lecher.
Since returning from visiting relatives out of town, Zhu Xiucai had learned that Zhang San Niangzi lived next door and had been constantly
plotting to seduce her. One day, he was strolling past Zhang San Niangzi's house when
she saw him. Zhu Xiucai was immediately overjoyed, and the two exchanged glances. Zhu Xiucai turned
away, about to speak, when he suddenly saw Zhang San Niangzi stepping out the door. Startled, he quickly
went home, deeply regretting his actions.

Meanwhile, Zhang San Niangzi, seeing this, thought, "How could the meat that was practically in my mouth slip away again
?" Entering the house, she saw a young man playing in the inner room. She went up to him and called out, "Come
here, go to the neighbor's house and find out who that gentleman is." The young man replied, "Next door is a scholar named Zhu
, who just returned from visiting relatives in Yangzhou." San Niangzi said, "Go and invite him to the side door
to talk . I'll reward you with some gifts." Without another word, the young man went out. Scholar Zhu heard the knock
and came out to find it was the neighbor's servant. After exchanging greetings, the young man relayed the message:
"I will definitely come tonight."

The young man returned and told Zhang San Niangzi. After dinner, when she returned to her room, she asked the young man to go and
tell him again. When the servant returned, he went straight to Zhang San Niangzi's room to report. Seeing her seductively caressing someone,
he himself became aroused and said, "I've done everything I asked you to do; you should give me a reward.
" The young man was very eager and went forward to embrace Zhang San Niangzi, touching her. Zhang San Niangzi, feeling unbearably itchy, also
took the opportunity to caress the young man. Just as they were about to go all out, they heard a sound approaching. The young man
exclaimed in fright, "It's Master Zhu! Oh no! We've been exposed! How can we leave now that he's here
?" Zhang San Niangzi had an idea. She turned to the young man and said, "Oh, it's my husband. You can
hide behind the bed, on the maid Wenbi's bed. My husband has already done his business; he often goes out. I'll come back to invite you back
." The young man did as she said and hid on the maid's bed. The two of them were a perfect match, needless to say
.

Third Sister let Zhu Xiucai in, and he immediately grabbed her, ready to have his way with her. Third Sister said ,
"My husband will definitely come to our room tonight. You can have your way with her for a bit, then go. I'll have Ma Xiuyang invite you another day.
" Without a word, Zhu Xiucai pushed Third Sister onto the bed. They began to make love quite vigorously. This Zhu Xiucai
was extremely skilled at it, but due to excessive lust, he had become aroused. He was slightly drunk that night, and seeing
Third Sister's beautiful and alluring figure, he became wildly aroused.

Around midnight, Third Sister felt him pressing heavily on her, and he stopped moving
. Her semen flowed freely, both inside and out. Third Sister panicked and cried out, "This is bad! It's going to happen!"
"Yang is dead." Not daring to push him down, she only tried to breathe on him, but he didn't move for a long time. Having no other choice
, she gently removed him from the outer bed and got up herself. She had to tell the young man and the maid Wenbi to
open the side door and carry him out. Whether he lived or died was no longer her concern. The young man said, "
Your Highness , you've killed someone, and I helped him get out. You must give me something to keep me quiet." The Third
Madam had no choice but to hand him a fifty-tael note of silver, telling him to come back another day. The young man, fearing
trouble , didn't tell anyone and never came again.

Zhu Xiucai died inside. The door was tightly shut, and they dared not open it for over ten days. Zhu
Xiucai's family only thought he had died drunk on the road, and they made arrangements for his funeral without saying anything. Only the maid Wenbi was disheartened
, thinking of finding a time to tell Zhang San, the Imperial Academy student.

Zhang San, a student of the Imperial Academy, lamented his lack of education and ambition. He hired a learned scholar,
Mr. Gong , to tutor him morning and evening, hoping for advancement. He only slept with his wife, San Niang, once or twice a month. The door to the
outer room remained locked every night. San Niang tidied up the outer room and laid out a cool bed. If Zhang San came in
, she would sleep with him on the cool bed. Thus, the door to the large bed was always open without anyone noticing.

Time flies like an arrow, and the days pass like a shuttle. Her son was already five years old. The wet nurse was bothered by her husband and
wanted to take him away. San Niang kept him as an assistant and wouldn't let him go. She gave her husband another ten taels of silver
to hire him for another two years. From then on,
it seemed that had slept with San Niang.

What happened next? Let's find out in the next chapter.
