GBP Chapter 162 Scenario Deduction
Chapter 162 Scenario Deduction
Wen Zongji sat to the side drinking tea, watching Pei Shirong being surrounded by three courtesans. At first, Pei Shirong was a little reserved, but he soon relaxed.
Wen Zongji raised an eyebrow.
They adapted quite quickly.
Pei Shirong doesn't seem like the type who doesn't know how to get along with women.
The three courtesans, unaware of Wen Zongji's purpose, could only try their best to keep Pei Shirong company with conversation.
"Young master, is this your first time visiting Sunset Pavilion?"
Pei Shirong nodded: "This is my first time here."
"What kind of songs and dances would you like, young master? We'd like to perform for you."
Pei Shirong said, "I don't have any particular favorites, you can eat whatever you like."
random?
The three courtesans were in a bind; the last thing they wanted to hear was the word "at will."
Wen Zongji coughed lightly: "The manager and I want courtesans with different styles, so you don't need to be reserved. I'll pay for everything today. All you need to do is show your personality. You don't need to try to please my second brother. As long as you can get him interested in one of you, I'll give you double the reward."
Upon hearing this, the three courtesans' eyes lit up, but they were still unsure of Wen Zongji's meaning: "Young master, could you elaborate?"
Wen Zongji pondered for a moment and said, "You should all have seen plays before. Your task is to play the role of Second Brother's wife. This is your daily life after your marriage. As long as you can satisfy my Second Brother, you will have succeeded."
"We understand."
The three courtesans nodded.
The three of them then discussed it and decided to take turns.
The first one to arrive was a beautiful and gentle courtesan who spoke softly.
"Young master, you must be tired after a long day. Let me give you a massage."
After saying that, she walked behind Pei Shirong and massaged his shoulders, but after pressing hard for a couple of times, she felt that Pei Shirong's body was too stiff and she couldn't press him with her strength.
Pei Shirong waved his hand: "You don't need to press it anymore."
pass!
The first cleaner failed immediately.
Now it's the second person's turn.
The second person has a youthful and lively charm.
"My husband~"
She was clearly more into character than the first one, walking over and taking Pei Shirong's arm, calling out sweetly.
Then she said, "You haven't spent time with me in ages, how about we go shopping together tomorrow?"
"not good!"
Pei Shirong immediately pulled his arm away: "Next!"
The girl looked completely bewildered.
She only said one sentence: "Where did I go wrong?"
Wen Zongji, meanwhile, was trying not to laugh.
He knew very well why Pei Shirong was reacting so strongly.
Pei Shirong must have thought of Pei Rujing.
He already has enough of a sister who gives him headaches; he certainly doesn't want another wife who needs him to coax her.
After eliminating two courtesans in succession, the last courtesan was feeling a little uneasy.
She was an elegant and noble woman, with a straight back and her gaze always fixed straight ahead, giving off an indescribable air of arrogance.
She stepped forward to Pei Shirong, her brows slightly furrowed: "Why are you so late today, my husband? Was something keeping you waiting?"
This person is clever; they even know how to create a scenario for themselves.
Pei Shirong went along with her: "There's more work to do at the government office."
"My lord, you must take care of yourself. I've had the kitchen prepare some soup for you. Please remember to drink it."
Pei Shirong nodded: "You're very thoughtful."
"It is my duty."
After saying this, the two were silent for a while. The woman said, "Today I met with the managers of several shops and looked through their account books. I found some problems and plan to go to the shops tomorrow to take a look."
Pei Shirong said, "Go if you want to."
Then the two fell silent again.
This courtesan followed the path of a virtuous wife and loving mother, with a calm and composed demeanor, but her intimacy with her husband was limited. Pei Shirong was not good at talking, so the two would always run out of things to say after a few words.
Pei Shirong noticed this as well and waved his hand, saying, "The three of you can leave now."
None of the three people liked it.
The three courtesans replied disappointedly, "Yes, young master."
Sure enough, the simpler the request sounds, the harder it is to complete.
Pei Shirong picked up the wine on the table and downed it in one gulp: "Brother-in-law, your method doesn't seem to be very useful."
Wen Zongji wasn't disappointed. He said, "Only three. Changdong, go find that manager and tell him to bring over a few more women with different styles."
The grand Sunset Pavilion couldn't possibly house only these three types of women.
So, Pei Shirong's situation became simpler after that: he accompanied all sorts of women in acting out skits.
Pei Shirong showed varying degrees of patience depending on the personality of each woman.
This method of fishing in the ocean can still be somewhat useful.
There really was someone who could make Pei Shirong willing to chat with her for a long time, but in the end, the two became buddies.
That's outrageous!
Wen Zongji was speechless.
God knows how excited he was when he saw them getting along so well; he thought he had achieved his goal.
Later, Wen Zongji got hungry, so he ordered food to be served, and he ate while watching.
Then it was Pei Shirong's turn to get angry.
"Brother-in-law, have you forgotten that I haven't eaten either?"
Upon hearing this, the courtesans in the private room were stunned, and their gazes toward Wen Zongji became somewhat strange.
Brother-in-law?
It turns out they weren't biological brothers, but rather his wife's brother.
Did he bring his brother-in-law to visit a brothel?
It looks weird no matter how you look at it.
No wonder this young master has been here for so long and hasn't ordered a single female servant.
These women felt they had figured out the key point.
Wen Zongji didn't notice their expressions and said, "Then let someone bring you more dishes. You can change the scenario and improvise freely in the dining scene."
Pei Shirong: "...You're really smart."
They really didn't give him a chance to breathe.
Wen Zongji spread his hands: "My wife is still waiting for me at the manor. Second brother, hurry up and finish so I can go back and be with her."
"Alright."
Wen Zongji has already brought up Pei Rujing, so what can Pei Shirong say?
So Pei Shirong ate while simultaneously acting out a scene with these courtesans, keeping him very busy.
By the time the meal was over, Pei Shirong had already eliminated all the new courtesans the manager had brought in.
Upon learning this, the steward walked in with a distressed expression: "Young master, our Sunset Pavilion is too small to meet your requirements."
He had already brought together all sorts of courtesans from the Sunset Pavilion, but Pei Shirong didn't like any of them, so he was at his wit's end.
Wen Zongji stood up: "Then forget it."
Pei Shirong stood up with him: "Are we leaving?"
"There's no one left, so we have to leave. Staying overnight isn't allowed here."
Pei Shirong rolled his eyes: "I have no intention of staying overnight."
After Changdong paid the money, the two left the Sunset Pavilion.
The steward respectfully saw the two off.
The servant whispered, "This is the first time I've seen such strange guests. They come here and instead of watching the singing and dancing, they find people to act with them."
The manager weighed the silver in his hand: "As long as you pay, the customer is the boss. Just serve them well. Although they have a lot of demands, they are generous and haven't made things difficult for us."
"Alright, go ahead and get busy."
"Yes."
The servant continued to attend to the other guests.
