Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 602: Chapter 604 My Stage Name is Love Spicy Skin Oil Xiaoxiao wanted to create an effect, to give people a sense of mystery, so she turned around and pretended to leave.

At this moment, someone in the hall reacted.

”Hey, don’t go, miss?”

”What’s your stage name, miss?”

”Miss, you haven’t let us see what you look like yet?”

”Miss, I’ll book you for tonight.”

”...”

”...”

At the sound of this clamor, Xiaoxiao’s lips curled into a smile; this was exactly the effect she needed. She turned back towards everyone from the second floor.

She said, ”My stage name is Love Spicy Skin Oil. I will be performing here for the next few evenings. Everyone is welcome to watch. As for my appearance, only those who spend a spring night with me will see it. As for how to spend a spring night with me, in four days there will be an auction, and the highest bidder will win.”

Having said all this, Xiaoxiao casually turned and went back to her room.

The hall erupted into noise once again.

”What kind of stage name is that? Never heard a four-character one before.”

”It’s called Love Spicy Skin Oil.”

”Though the name sounds a bit weird, her voice is truly pleasant.”

”Yeah, I didn’t get enough of it.”

”Are you coming tomorrow?”

”Definitely.”

”I’m setting my sights on that girl.”

”...”

”...”

Hearing everyone’s discussions, the madam was all smiles; it had been a long time since the Yixiang Courtyard had seen such a scene. She hadn’t expected that girl really had some tricks up her sleeve.

”Gentlemen, that girl is a newbie; you guys just go ahead and raise the price, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied,” the madam confidently assured. The girl looked quite presentable with makeup on and knew how to sing well—certainly bound to please these men. It seemed her aspirations to be a pillar of the establishment weren’t just talk; she really did have some brains.

”Too bad we can’t get her tonight,” some began to express their regrets.

”Gentlemen, let other girls serve you tonight. You didn’t come for nothing today; all prices are halved.” This was also a method suggested by that girl to attract these people and ensure they didn’t want to leave once they came.

Indeed, several men became interested, ”That sounds good.”

”Girls!” the madam called out.

”Coming!”

Several gentlemen each took a girl and went upstairs.

Xiaoxiao returned to her room and sat down, removing her veil; of course, she was not yet free, as there were guards at the door.

There were also maids following her inside. Although she could move freely, she was still being controlled.

She had just given a strenuous performance. She had gone all out, hoping that by tonight, her stage name might become well-known throughout the streets. Yang Ming would surely come to save her, as that message was meant only for him to understand.

She had sold her night to relay a message, and if Yang Ming did not rescue her, she would belong to someone else.

She was taking quite a gamble this time, but to buy time, it was a necessary strategy. Teaching someone else in five days was impossible; she had to go on boldly and face whatever came her way. Moreover, as she had told the madam, even if she taught someone else, they could not take her place as a pillar of the establishment.

Before long, the madam entered the room. Her face lacked the expected smile and was instead somewhat grim. Xiaoxiao’s heart sank, fearing the worst, and indeed, the madam spoke, ”Sister, you really did put on quite a show!”

Xiaoxiao forced a smile, ”Sister, this was all for the sake of our Yixiang Courtyard. If nothing goes wrong, more people will come tomorrow.”

”Don’t beat around the bush. Tell me, what is this Love Spicy Skin Oil?”

”...”
