Like Teacher Li, most of the girls in Cuiyu Tower were adopted by Li Yun when they were young. After several years or even more than ten years of careful training, they were taught the art of zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, dancing, and serving others. When they were old enough to receive guests, Li Yun would lead them to East Taiyi Palace to worship the Three Pure Ones as a rite of passage, hoping for good fortune in the future.
After paying respects to the Three Pure Ones, he expressed that he was already an adult and could begin to receive guests.
This year was the second year of Shaosheng. Li Shishi followed Li Yun to East Taiyi Palace to pay respects to the Three Pure Ones.
After paying their respects to the Three Pure Ones, Li Yun had just returned to the Cuiyu Tower. Li Yun asked Li Shishi to sit on a chair in the central hall of the first floor of the Cuiyu Tower. The first floor of the Cuiyu Tower faced the entrance. There were three rows of long chairs on three sides of the empty space once the Cuiyu Tower entered. The girls who had not received any guests yet sat on the chairs, waiting for the guests to choose them.
After a while, a guest dressed like a scholar entered the Cuiyu Tower.
He glanced at the girls sitting on the chairs and soon fixed his eyes on Li Shishi. He said to Li Yun,""Big Sister Li, I want this girl!”
After saying that, he pointed at Li Shishi. It seemed that he had taken a fancy to her.
"Hurry up and enter the room with this Young Master Shaoyou!”Li Yun ordered Li Shishi.
The guest named "Shao You" seemed to be in his forties. He took a few steps forward and held her hand, intending to enter her room with her.
As it was her first time receiving a customer, Exemplary Lee's face flushed red. The customer's skillful movements indicated that he was a regular here and should be very familiar with this brothel.
He followed her to the Fragrance Room. She made tea for the guest and asked,""My daughter's name is Li Shishi. Today is my first day receiving guests. May I know your name?”
"Hehe, no need for that. My surname is Qin Guan and my name is Shaoyou!”the customer replied.
The guest was Qin Guan, a famous poet in the Song Dynasty. He was Su Dongpo's student.
Then, she picked up her pipa.
"Master Qin, please have some tea. This little girl will play Liu Qiqing's 'Memories of the Imperial Capital' for you first!”
"Alright, I like Liu Sanbian's lyrics the most. Wherever there is a well, you can sing Liu Ci!" Qin Guan answered with a smile.
With a wave of her hand, the pipa started to play and she started to sing,"“
The thin quilt is small and the pillow is cool. I suddenly feel the taste of parting. I've been through several cold watches, and I've been sleeping again after getting up. After all, he couldn't sleep, and the night was as long as a year.
I also think of waiting, and then turning back the reins of the expedition; I also argue with Nai, And have already made plans. Thousands of kinds of thoughts, many ways to explain, only lonely and tired. My heart is tied to my whole life, and I have failed you with thousands of tears.”
Teacher Li's voice was melodious and pleasant. When she sang to the point where she was moved, two lines of tears actually fell.
Qin Guan wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
Although it was still daytime, the curtains were closed and an oil lamp was lit. Qin Guan looked at Li Shishi carefully with the help of the lamp. The more he looked at her, the more beautiful she looked. He was a regular customer of Cuiyu Tower, but it was his first time seeing her as beautiful as she was.
"I also know Go, calligraphy, and painting. Do you want to…"
"Let's do that. I really want to do that with you!”Qin Guan might have had some drinks before coming to the Jade Tower. Seeing her beauty, he suddenly had the idea of having sex with her.
"This, Master Qin, if I don't do that, it'll be five taels of silver to serve you until tomorrow. If I do that, it'll be ten taels of silver. Because it's my first time, I'll have to add another twenty taels of silver, making a total of thirty taels of silver.”Shishi Li said, blushing.
"30 taels it is, I don't lack money. Although I often come to the Cuiyu Restaurant and other girls aren't as expensive as you, you're really much prettier than them, and you can sing well, it's worth it!”After saying that, he began to take off his clothes.
Li Shishi also understood that she was in a brothel. Although it was her first day receiving customers, it was only a matter of time before she lost her virginity. She might as well do it with Master Qin in front of her, not to mention that he was so rich.
Shishi Li put away her pipa and found a pill in her room. She took it, which could keep her from getting pregnant for the next 24 hours. She went to the bed. It was her first day with a customer and she had no experience. She sat by the bed and waited for Qin Guan to take off his clothes. Her face was still red.
Qin Guan walked over and sat beside her. He began to remove her clothes, leaving only her undergarments.
The oil lamp shone on her. Qin Guan stared blankly at her. They removed her undergarments and had sex.
Because it was the first time, there were marks on the bed.
"I'll keep this bedsheet and give you another five taels of silver!”Qin Guan was very satisfied. He put on his clothes and said generously to her.
"Godfather Qin, what do you want me to do for you next?”Shishi Li, who had just been raped by Qin Guan, put on her clothes and tidied her hair. She sat up and said to Qin Guan.
"Chess is the best way to kill time. Why don't we play a few rounds of Go and see how your chess skills are?”Qin Guan answered with a smile.
"Alright then." Li Shishi stood up and took two boxes of Go and placed them on the table beside the bed.
They sat down and started playing chess. Qin Guan was 30 years older than Li Shishi, so she was no match for him.
After playing a few games, the two of them felt sleepy and took off their clothes to sleep.
Early the next morning, Qin Guan got dressed and went to the first floor to pay Li Yun. He had spent 35 taels of silver the day before. He gave the money to Li Yun and took the bedsheets home as trophies.
As soon as Qin Guan left, Li Yun went to her room and asked,""Teacher Li, how did you feel when you received your first customer yesterday?”
"This Godfather Qin is quite generous, but he just wants me to follow him. It's so embarrassing.”Li Shishi replied shyly.
"Yeah, we women rely on men to survive. It's normal for men to want to do it with us.”Li Yun chuckled and said to Li Shishi.
"Yes, I think so too. It's just that I feel like I've lost something after giving my first time to someone else. My heart always feels empty.”Li Shishi sighed.
"Maybe it's not like getting married. You just have to get used to it. Our Cuiyu Brothel is the most luxurious brothel in Bianliang, Tokyo. The big merchants, dignitaries, and nobles all patronize it. You can earn a lot of money. If you're lucky enough to be redeemed, it's also possible for you to marry them and become their wives and concubines!”Li Yun said proudly.
"Yes, I'll take good care of the guests.”Teacher Li said faintly.
"Alright, this is your reward for receiving a customer yesterday, twelve silver taels.”Li Yun handed over twelve taels of silver to Li Shishi.
The guests of the " Jade Tower " all paid their bills at Li Yun's place. After paying, the money was divided into three equal portions. One portion was used for the repair and construction of the " Jade Tower ", one portion was given to Li Yun, and the other portion was given to the lady who received the guests.
She would get a third of the thirty-five taels of silver she had received from Qin Guan yesterday, which was twelve taels of silver.
