Special 5: Sister’s League (1)
“Liang Yiyue!” A roar that reached the sky, resounded through the Liang residence.
“Ai! Another one came to settle accounts with me! Jingyu, could it be that setting up a Sister’s League was unacceptable for those big men?” Liang Yiyue couldn’t help but complain with a wrinkled face. The lotus seed soup she was holding in her hand almost fell and rolled to the ground.
To put it nicely, she and Jingyu decided to come out from under their big brothers’ wings. To put it bluntly, it means they would stand on their own. She didn’t believe that women in their blooming age would not be able to shine without a man’s help.
“I think what they can’t accept is that you also brought over Eldest Sister and Xue Zhen. If it was just the two of us, they would be more than eager.” Jiang Jingyu’s small and sweet face lifted from a large stack of thick account books. Once she is of age, the Yueyun Embroidery Floor would be handed over to her. For now, she was to begin dabbling in these complicated account books.
“You didn’t have to explain it so clearly.” Liang Yiyue’s face collapsed and she pouted. She and Jingyu were the offbeats who were about to be expelled from the Brother’s League. The reason was very simple. They are about to get married, and they are not suitable to continue mingling with other men.
But why could Eldest Sister and Xue Zhen do it? They were also women. Just because their identities were different?
One was the master of Feng Yao Court, and the other was the future emperor of the Blood Union. They were to lead countless subordinates, so they were important for the Brother’s League. But she and Jingyu were different. Once they came of age, what awaited them was marriage. Maybe by a certain official or eunuch, who had a good personal relationship with her unscrupulous father… Once they made an agreement, she was carried into the backyard of a certain high gate by a sedan chair that popped out of nowhere. In name, she would be the main wife of the head of the house, but really, she was trapped in that narrow world until she died of old age…
As for her capable old mom, if she were to help and state her position to refute her father’s marriage proposal, she would end up burying her in the general clinic all day as cheap labor…
“No way? Uncle Zai and Aunt Jing are not that kind of people.” Jiang Jingyu looked at a little woman who had no idea what she was thinking. She couldn’t help protesting for the innocent elders.
“Ai, you wouldn’t understand.” Liang Yiyue returned to her senses and waved her hand weakly. “If it wasn’t for me threatening to end my life, my mother would really force me to study medicine. My father would also really make me study politics. But these are not what I want.” As for the future medical god of the Liang family, her brother was enough. The future king…. On the other hand, Lin Xidai, and the brother and sister pair can work tirelessly. She wasn’t a fool to jump into that circle, not even if it would kill her.
“Then what do you want to do? Oh, and what exactly is the Sister’s League going to do?” Jiang Jingyu asked in confusion.
Sister’s League has been established, but that was a month ago. All the things that should be recruited, notified, and shown off… have been done… Now it was just the matter of the operation of the Sister’s League. However, now it felt like this proposal was only brought up by an extremely bored little woman to fight back against the few members who kept the two of them from joining the Brother’s League.
“Oh right. What should we do next? Let me think about it, what did the brothers plan before…”
Sure enough! Jiang Jingyu sighed softly and shook her head. She ignored Liang Yiyue, who was thinking hard to come up with an idea, and buried herself in the complicated data.
She couldn’t join the Brother’s League, but it was nice to have a Sister’s League, where she could chat with in her spare time. She just hoped that Yiyue won’t want to find something that makes her scalp numb and come to challenge them together.

It seemed she was too good at guessing. What she hoped would not happen really happened.
Jiang Jingyu looked at Liang Yiyu.e who was wearing a man’s attire in front of her, and then looked at the blue man’s attire in her hand, “Really have to change?”
“Of course. How come women can’t go into Hualou (brothels)?” Liang Yiyue continued with fascination, “The world praised brothels in Huansha City as the most attractive to men. Don’t you want to experience it once?”
To be honest, she didn’t want to. Jiang Jingyu swallowed, but who made her younger than Yiyue? Without the right to speak, she could only be Liang Yiyue’s sidekick and obediently put on men’s clothes, get on the carriage, and walk to Dahui’s Huansha City.
She hoped that it wouldn’t be too long before big brother and the others would find out and stop them before they entered a brothel.
Jiang Jingyu secretly prayed while she was changing her clothes. She took the time to write a note and leave it on the desk. She hoped her big brother would come find her note in her room because she did not go to the restaurant for a meal today. Heavens, she really didn’t want to be trapped in a brothel with Liang Yiyue, surrounded by a group of gorgeously dressed and heavily fragrant women.
—
It was unsure when, but Hualou Brothel had been leading Dahui’s Huansha City. The one who paid taxes for the whole city was a brothel. The Madam of Hualou Brothel in Huansha City has become the symbol of Huansha City. The Madam of Hualou became a character that Huansha City talked about with great relish.
As a result, the areas near Huansha City were cleaned up of anything in the country that were inappropriate. It is said that this is the only renovation that Yang Jingzhi, the mother of the country and director of the medical center, insisted on. She never intervened in the rest of the restructuring measures, except for the brothel, which she strongly opposed. Perhaps, this was what aided in the prosperity of Huansha City.
If she found out that her daughter dared to disguise herself as a man and go to a brothel to spend money to buy smiles (prostitutes), would she be so angry that she vomited blood?
Until she was pulled by Liang Yiyue and got off the carriage in front of the largest brothel in Huansha City, Jiang Jingyu was still struggling.
“Yiyue…” She held Liang Yiyue’s hand tightly, why didn’t big brother arrived yet? Didn’t he see the note she left? Or did he not return home at all, busy with school affairs?
“Jingyu? What are you afraid of? We’re just going in to have a look!” Liang Yiyue blinked in confusion, not understanding why Jiang Jingyu was so afraid.
“Look? Then what?” She didn’t think that the prostitutes of brothels were all friendly. Half a year ago, she came to Huansha City with her aunt to discuss business. During the banquet, the flower girls from “Zuixi Hall” were arranged to pour tea and wine for the merchants. She had seen the methods of those flower girls. Within an hour, the pockets of those merchants were emptied by those flower girls. In the end, it was her aunt who paid for the meal.
Heavens, when she thought of these flower girls, who are addicted to money, she can’t help shaking her legs. She would rather bury her head in the boring account books than deal with those flower girls.
