Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 606: Chapter 608: Tonight, you’ll still have to put up with continuing the performance ”How could this be?” Hearing everyone’s words, Xiaoxiao simply couldn’t believe that everyone knew, and only she had been fooling herself with her little cleverness.

”It was the madam who said it, she already knows you were caught at the Marriage Fate Temple, and that day the temple was visited by people of status, so you must be from a well-off family,”

”...”

”These past few days, the madam has been preventing you from sending messages outside because she wanted to see what you could make of Yixiang Courtyard’s business. Don’t be angry with her, she actually has a soft heart and was planning to let you go afterwards.”

Xiaoxiao looked incredulously at the madam, the person who spoke harshly and was tricky, the one who was even about to slap her, was actually someone with a soft heart.

Seeing the look Xiaoxiao gave her, the madam snootily turned her head away, ”If I don’t act tough, you lot would probably turn the heavens upside down.”

”...” Okay, that must be tough for her.

But what now? She had made such a big scene, if she went ahead with the original plan and escaped tonight, Yixiang Courtyard would likely suffer, and although she hadn’t thought that much before, now she had to consider these people.

”Sister, we know you’re a lady from a good family and don’t want to tarnish your purity, and besides, you said just now, you seem to have a husband.”

”Yes, I am already married, and I am not a virgin. I made up those things at the time just to protect myself,” Xiaoxiao replied.

A few girls couldn’t help but chuckle, ”But the ruckus you made about auctioning your first night was too big.”

”...” Could she be blamed? How else would she attract those men to come and help her get the message out?

”So, you’ll still need to go through with the performance tonight.”

”...” Was there really no other way out?

”Don’t worry, after you are bid on tonight, I’ll take your place,” one girl assured her.

”...” Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened at the girl who was going to take her place, ”Are you still a virgin?”

The girl nodded, ”Yes, I’m one of those girls who sells her art, not her body.”

”...” Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say, this girl, for the sake of Yixiang Courtyard’s livelihood, for the livelihood of her sisters, was going to sacrifice her first time. She didn’t have to do this, she could just wait for Yixiang Courtyard to go under and then go live a normal life.

After a moment, Xiaoxiao suddenly had a bright idea, ”I’ll go find my husband and have him come bid tonight, that way you won’t have to replace me.”

”Sister, it’s not that we don’t trust you, we have our own difficulties, and if you run off... Don’t worry, I will take your place tonight, but I hope you’ll keep your promise afterwards to teach the other sisters,” the girl responded.

”...” She could completely understand; if she ran away, Yixiang Courtyard would be finished, ”Then have someone send a message to my husband, let him come, how about that?”

The girls looked at each other and then towards the madam, who finally spoke, ”Then you tell us where your husband is, and I’ll have someone send the message.”

”My husband, he’s at...” Xiaoxiao couldn’t utter another word, she was directionally challenged and had no idea where Chu Lian’s residence was.

”...” Regarding Xiaoxiao’s response, everyone was speechless.

All of a sudden, Xiaoxiao remembered Yuelai Restaurant and said, ”I’ll write a letter, just deliver it to Yuelai Restaurant. If Young Master Chu Lian of the well-known Yuelai Restaurant sees the letter, he will surely come to rescue me.”

”The famous Yuelai Restaurant of the whole dynasty?”

”Exactly.”
