Chapter 2504: Chapter 2505 Guests to Entertain
...
Inside the Chrysanthemum Hall.
Nighttime, people came and went, the lights were bright.
A woman with long hair hanging down and a stooped back slowly walked forward, each step wet.
She slightly raised her head, looking at a gaudily dressed man who had just passed by her. This man was the star of their Chrysanthemum Hall, known for his bad temper, indeed...
The man instantly got angry when he saw the woman sneaking a look at him and cursed at her.
"What are you looking at? Is your dog eyes worthy of looking at me?"
The woman immediately lowered her head upon hearing his words, daring not to look randomly again, continuously apologizing.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry."
Her voice was hoarse, seemingly her throat had once been injured, each word she spoke felt like she was trembling, as if enduring tremendous pain.
However, how could the man pay attention to her few apologies, instead he felt even angrier after hearing her words.
He was the best-looking person in this Chrysanthemum Hall, how could his pure body be sullied by a sweeping woman like her?
"Get out!"
Raising his foot, he kicked towards the woman, aiming right at her thigh.
The woman felt the pain, retreated a few steps, her foot unsteady, she then sat on the ground, but she dared not utter a single groan.
"Useless thing."
The man snorted with laughter as he watched her fall.
Usually, even the star of the Chrysanthemum Hall had to bear the guests’ anger, but as a man, how could he not have anger?
And what to do when one feels angry? Take it out on the sweeping woman!
"Stop pretending, don’t think you can avoid work this way. Hurry up and wash all the clothes, there are guests to attend to tonight. Though your little bit of silver is nothing, it’s still money!"
He harshly ordered the woman.
"Yes, yes."
The woman responded repeatedly, legs trembling as she stood up, and then slowly walked away.
"Fool, how can washing clothes get you so wet, really don’t know what use the boss has raising this waste." The man’s voice could be heard behind her, neither high nor low.
Much later, in a small shabby room in the alley of the Chrysanthemum Hall’s backyard.
"Mother, what happened to you, bullied again?"
A young man saw the woman return, her whole body soaked, his eyes immediately reddened.
"It’s nothing, it’s fine, Mother is used to it."
The woman raised her head and smiled at her son, then pushed the door open and sat down on a small stool.
"Ru’er, come here, Mother saw your clothes were torn yesterday, let me mend them for you."
"I’ve already mended it."
Ru’er quickly said, then ran over to squat beside the woman.
"Mother, why don’t we escape? I’ve already prepared food, if we can escape Sky City, everything will get better."
Continuing like this in Chrysanthemum Hall, when would it ever end? How could he bear to see his own mother being worn down so much in that place?
Now he and his second brother had grown up, they could earn silver to support their mother. Why did they continue to stay here?
"No, no, can’t escape."
Hearing her son’s words, the woman shook her head anxiously.
If she could escape, how could she still stay here, but she couldn’t escape.
