Chapter 461 Protecting the Best Sister 3
Chapter 461 Protecting the Best Sister 3
Zhang Rulan turned her gaze to Mother Cao: "Mom, please say something for me!"
Facing Madam Zhou's suspicious look, Mother Cao was about to speak when someone pulled her sleeve.
She tilted her head slightly, but met Mudan's frightened eyes.
Mother Cao suddenly realized something.
On the fifth day of last month, Zhang Rulan did stay in the building and did not go out, but Mudan and several other red cards went to Qingshan Temple to burn incense.
Could it be that Peony used the name of Magnolia to seduce Zhou Niangzi's man?
Peony was almost scared to death.
She originally came to see Zhang Rulan's fun, but when Madam Zhou mentioned Qingshan Temple, she thought of the man she met there.
At that time, she hooked up with that man, but Buddhism is a quiet place, and she always felt guilty and uneasy when doing such things.
After making love, when the other party asked her name, she was staring at the magnolia outside the window in a daze, so she said the word "magnolia" casually.
Afterwards, she didn't correct the other party and just let her call her "Yulan Yulan".
Anyway, for people like them, magnolia, peony, and late lotus are just names, and there is no need to correct them deliberately.
I thought it was just a fleeting romance, but I didn't expect the other party to cause such a big trouble.
Seeing Madam Zhou coming at her aggressively, Mudan was frightened.
Mudan is the current top performer in Zuichunlou. She is young and can make a lot of money for Mother Cao in one night.
Zhang Rulan is already old and has little value in Mother Cao's eyes. Naturally, she cannot compare to her current "darling" Mudan.
Therefore, facing Zhang Rulan's pleading eyes, Mother Cao just laughed awkwardly: "Well... I'm old, and my memory is not very good..."
Zhang Rulan was shocked. She never expected that Mother Cao would say such a thing.
When he glanced over, he met Mudan's guilty gaze.
Zhang Rulan immediately realized that she was taking the blame for others!
She struggled to speak: "This lady..."
"Alright, Yulan," Mother Cao interrupted Zhang Rulan, "Since you've done something wrong, you should apologize to this lady!"
As soon as Mother Cao opened her mouth, the other girls who wanted to stand up and testify for Zhang Rulan silently retracted their feet.
Zhang Rulan shook her head frantically: "No, it's not me, it's Mudan, it's you!"
"Yulan! Don't bite other people!" Mother Cao's face darkened.
She has made her choice, so naturally she will protect Mudan to the end.
Madam Zhou was furious. She grabbed Zhang Rulan by the collar and threw her to the ground. "What else do you have to say, little bitch?"
Zhang Rulan knew that she had no way to defend herself for what happened today.
Madam Zhou was stubborn and had a prejudice against her, and with Mother Cao stirring up trouble, no matter how smart she was, she was helpless in the face of such a situation.
Zhang Rulan gritted her teeth, suppressed the grievance in her heart, staggered to her feet, walked to Mother Cao, and pleaded in a low voice: "Mother Cao, please lend me some money. I will definitely pay you back double later..."
Mother Cao looked embarrassed: "My dear daughter, if it's five hundred taels, I won't say anything. But five thousand taels..."
Zhang Rulan felt sad and looked at Mudan.
Mudan lowered her head, feeling guilty and not daring to look at Zhang Rulan.
She doesn't have much money.
Madam Zhou sneered, "Since you can't come up with the money, then use your body to repay me! Today I'll also do a good deed and let those who can't afford to enter Zuichunlou see what it was like to be the top prostitute!"
As she spoke, she grabbed Zhang Rulan's arm and dragged her to the main gate of Zuichunlou. She ordered the servants she had brought with her, "Strip her clothes off. Leave nothing behind!"
"do not want!"
Zhang Rulan screamed and rolled desperately on the ground, trying to break free from the hands of the servants.
"His!"
The skirt was torn, revealing the underwear worn underneath.
“Get out of here! Ahhh!!!”
"Oh!"
"Ouch!"
A stick flew from a distance and hit a servant in the chest, knocking him back heavily.
The sudden change caused several people who were in action to stop involuntarily.
From a distance, Li Mingzhu saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of Zuichunlou. Fearing that she would be late, she quickly jumped up and swung the stick out with force.
Pushing through the crowd, Li Mingzhu bent down to pick up the stick on the ground and stood in front of Zhang Rulan. With a cold face, she shouted at the Zhou family servant who was trying to pull Zhang Rulan away: "Get out of here!"
Zhang Rulan was stunned. Looking at her sister, whose clothes were disheveled and her hair was askew, and who was protecting her with a stick, she couldn't help but shed tears: "Little sister..."
Madam Zhou looked at him unkindly: "Who are you? Do you want to meddle in other people's business?"
Li Mingzhu pointed her stick at Madam Zhou and said, "Who the hell are you? How dare you hurt someone in broad daylight?"
Madam Zhou was enraged and screamed, "How dare you point a stick at me? Come on, beat this bitch to death!"
The Zhou family servants looked at each other, raised their fists and rushed towards Li Mingzhu shouting.
Li Mingzhu clenched the stick and rushed forward, hitting these people hard.
After a while, all these people lay on the ground, screaming "Ouch, ouch".
Madam Zhou was shocked, swallowed her saliva, turned around and ran away.
Li Mingzhu stepped forward, grabbed her hair and dragged her to the ground.
"what!!!"
Madam Zhou screamed in pain.
Li Mingzhu grabbed Madam Zhou's neck and threw her heavily to the ground. She then turned around and helped Zhang Rulan up: "Sister, are you okay?"
Zhang Rulan wiped away her tears and shook her head.
"You...why are you here?"
After Zhang Rulan sent her original body away, she never thought about recognizing her again. Every time she sent money to her original body, she would send five taels secretly at night.
This time when Zhang Rulan encountered a crisis, it was Wu Liang who took the initiative to run to find her original body.
"Isn't this Madam Li from the weaving and embroidery workshop?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I thought she looked familiar. It turned out to be her!"
"Eh? Why is this Madam Li here?"
"Yes, it seems he's involved with this girl from Zuichunlou!"
More and more people gathered around, and the sound of discussions was heard, which made Zhang Rulan anxious.
"You...you should leave quickly..." Zhang Rulan gently pushed Li Mingzhu.
Li Mingzhu took the hem of her skirt out of her belt, took off her coat and put it on Zhang Rulan, hugged her and said, "Let's talk inside."
"What are you doing?"
Zhang Rulan looked at Li Mingzhu pleadingly: "Go back quickly and leave me alone..."
Li Mingzhu ignored her excuses, hugged her and walked into Zuichunlou, then turned around and dragged Madam Zhou in.
"Oh!"
The door of Zuichunlou was closed, blocking out the discussions and sights outside.
Madam Zhou sat on the ground, looking at Li Mingzhu angrily: "Do you know who I am? My father is General Weiyuan's man. If you dare to hit me, I will let my father kill you!"
Li Mingzhu slapped him twice: "General Weiyuan is so great, but he can treat people badly?"
Madam Zhou screamed, "She seduced my husband! She's shameless!"
"I didn't!" Zhang Rulan retorted. "I already told you. On the fifth day of last month, I was feeling unwell and resting in the building. Doctor Zhang from Huichuntang came to see me. He can vouch for me!"
Li Mingzhu absolutely believed in Zhang Rulan. She patted Madam Zhou's face and said, "Did you hear that? You've got the wrong person!"
