Chapter 42 Past Life Events

  It's really hard to understand why this young master, who has been pampered since childhood, is so passionate about food. I don't know what kind of complicated and bumpy road he has taken in the past. It's better if he leaves, this guy isn't bad, but unfortunately, his spoiled nature is a bit too much. Qin Kan feels that if he stays with him for long, they will inevitably fight again.

  Xiao Gongzi is gone, Qin Kan's life must go on.

  These days have been chaotic, his life has been greatly affected, he lost his job, got into a fight, and even spent time in the big prison cell, he did so many impulsive things, but unfortunately didn't gain any benefits.

  This doesn't conform to Qin Kan's interests. As a realist, everything he does serves the ultimate purpose of money. From this perspective, what he has done in these few days is meaningless and a waste of his youth.

  Big house, beautiful wife... these goals are still far away, must seize the time to make money.

  Tang Yin returned home drunk.

  Tang Yin stumbled back from two days before the incident until today.

  "Tang brother, where have you been these past few days?"

  "My humble brother and friends exchange and critique each other's poetry and writings."

  "How can one's poetry and prose be chiseled to emit a fragrance that permeates the entire body?"

  "Uh...the taste of talent."

  "Originally talent is the fragrance of jasmine flowers, Brother Tang's skill in speaking nonsense with his eyes open, I'm not as good as him."

  Tang Yin's drunken face revealed a shy smile: "...and happened to drink a few cups of flower wine."

  Shameless old lecher! Qin Kan secretly despised him.

  "Is Huajiu expensive?"

  Tang Yin opened his bleary drunken eyes and said: "I'm not clear, anyway I didn't spend any money."

  People are envious, Qin Kan has been busy in prison for the past few days, fighting with the powerful and risking his life with officials. This guy is drunk every day in a warm and beautiful place, drinking small wine, hugging beauties, and even enjoying free treatment...

  As if deliberately allowing Qin Kan's jealousy to upgrade, Tang Yin took out two large silver ingots and asked in confusion: "How strange, since he left with no money, why did he come back with twenty more taels?"

  Qin Kan's eyes twitched with anger. This kind of person who eats, drinks and has fun for free, yet still gets paid, seriously challenged his values in life. He began to think that his hardworking bee-like behavior of earning money was foolish, and he should be like Tang Bohu, who didn't need to do anything, just show up and smile, and countless beauties would fight to sleep with him, give him money to spend, and even euphemistically call the prostitution fees "allowance"...

  Really don't want to bother with this kind of person...

  "Tang brother likes watching magic shows?" Qin Kan asked with a wink.

  "What magic?"

  Three super-large bowls were found in the room and turned upside down on the table.

  "Borrowing Brother Tang's utensils for a use." Qin took the two silver ingots that Tang Yin had just earned from the skillful girl and put them in one of the sea bowls.

  "Watch closely, the moment of witnessing a miracle......" Qin Kan's two hands moved swiftly like wheels, constantly changing the positions of the three large bowls on the table, Tang Yin's eyes were wide with wonder, his head moving along with the movement of the bowls.

  Splash!

  Three bowls were placed down.

  "Tang brother, guess which bowl has the money?"

  Tang Yin pointed with one finger: "This."

  The bowl is turned over, empty and hollow.

  "That."

  Still empty.

  "It must be this."

  Three bowls were all turned over, Tang Yin was shocked: "Where's the silver?"

  "It's gone. Brother Tang, get a good night's sleep and wake up feeling refreshed and clear-headed. Money is just a mundane thing, no need to investigate further."

  Qin Kan cupped his hands together and turned around to leave.

  Tang Yin reluctantly touched the bottom of a bowl with one hand, his expression was very painful, and he obviously doubted his mental state again.

  Can't blame Qin Kan for bullying cultural people, sometimes cultural people unconsciously show off and it's indeed quite hateful, being fined twenty taels of silver can only be considered a light punishment.

  Many things are waiting for Qin Kan, the next plan is to continue writing books, Journey to the West should be completed and submitted as soon as possible, can Dream of Red Mansions make its debut? This time using his own name to write, after becoming famous he will drink flower wine, eat and drink for free, and even take things away for free when leaving.

  "Qin Xian Di slow down..." Tang Yin called out to Qin Kan.

  Qin Kan turned his head and stared at Tang Yan. If he still cared about the twenty taels of silver, Qin Kan decided to thoroughly deceive him into madness.

  Fortunately, Tang Yin's memory after getting drunk is about the same as a fish, only seven seconds. The matter of silver just now was probably forgotten long ago.

  "Brother Qin, I, your foolish brother, only found out today that you were stripped of your honors and titles all because of a woman. I truly admire you." Tang Yin swayed back and forth as he bowed to Qin Kan.

  Qin Kan's eyes lit up, this memory was a complete blank, he was worried about it, unexpectedly Tang Yin actually knew.

  "How did Brother Tang find out?"

  "The crimson sister of Qingtui Hall told me..."

  Qinglou is probably the name of the Green Mansion, and Xiaohong Sister is a courtesan?

  "Tell Brother Tang about it in detail."

  "Disaster Sister said that several months ago, a scholar named Qin had been frequenting the Qingtui Pavilion and had developed feelings for one of the courtesans there, Jinliu. However, Tong Yinglong, the son of the former prefect, intervened and tried to take Jinliu as his concubine. When Jinliu refused, Qin and Tong got into a fight at the pavilion. Qin hit Tong in the chest with something, causing him to spit up blood. As a result, Qin's official title was revoked. The prefect wanted to arrest Qin, but several of his classmates banded together to vouch for him, and Jinliu also begged for mercy on her knees outside the prefect's residence. Fearing public outrage, the prefect finally allowed Qin to settle the matter with money. Later, Jinliu feared that she would bring more trouble to Qin, so after redeeming herself, she hastily left Shaoxing and disappeared without a trace..."

  Qin Kan stared blankly: "............"

  Tang Yin looked at him with a gaze that had several points of admiration: "But for the sake of beauty, he didn't mind offending the powerful, Qin Xian-di was indeed the vanguard of the romantic faction, and I, his humble brother, fell behind, ashamed."

  Qin Kan was so embarrassed that he started sweating on his forehead.

  The former master of this body actually had such a melodramatic and tragic past...

  Qin Kan was considering whether to take out a white handkerchief like Lin Daiyu, spit some black blood on it, and dye the sorrowful atmosphere of the moment...

  "Tang Yin sighed: "People all think that being intimate with courtesans is a romantic and enjoyable thing, but who knows that they are also pitiful people who have fallen into the dust of the world. It's said that courtesans prefer men with outstanding talent, but this statement is greatly mistaken. In comparison, they actually prefer men who value emotions and righteousness. Hong Niuyue eloped at night, and Green Pearl jumped from a tower - what were they doing it for? Wasn't it all for the sake of 'emotions and righteousness'? So-called talent is just a decorative outer garment, after all..."

  Staring at Qin Kan, Tang Yin envied him so much that his eyes turned red: "Qin Xian-di, your reputation in Qingtui Hall is far higher than mine. You were furious with Jin Liu for stealing the championship, and now you are known as the greatest romantic hero in the world. Those girls all hope you'll go to them, each one wanting to offer herself to you..."

  "So that means I can eat, drink and sleep for free?"

  "Uh, of course."

  "Do you have money for prostitution?" Qin Kan's eyes gleamed sharply.

  "Uh, you don't have to pay for it..."

  "Will they pay me for prostitution?"

  Tang Yin's eyes twitched: "Probably... maybe... I guess so."

  Qin Kan looked up and pondered: "......it's not a bad way to make money, but it's a bit shameless."

  He patted Tang Yin's shoulder, Qin Kan had a look of heavenly and human conflict, his tone was serious: "Let me think about it again..."

  P.S. There is another update tonight.....
