Song Qianning raised her eyebrows and looked at Niu Dazhuang curiously: "Are you talking about Mr. Pan and the Ning prefect?"
"Yes." Niu Dazhuang nodded.
Anyway, there were no customers in the shop for the time being, so Niu Dazhuang put down his work and started telling Song Qianning the story.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to gesture, to tell Song Qianning how big the box was.
"If you ask me, the contents of that box must be some kind of gold, silver, or treasure. It's very likely what Mr. Pan wants to use to bribe the prefect Ning."
Hearing this, Song Qianning nodded thoughtfully and asked again, "What is the relationship between Pan Fushen and Ning Fuyin?"
"They have a very good relationship."
Niu Dazhuang lowered his voice and said with a pout, "Miss Song, you don't know that Mr. Pan and the Ning prefect have been on good terms for a long time."
"Even before Ning became the prefect, the two of them had a very good relationship. It is said that the two of them had..."
After describing the relationship between the two in vivid detail, Niu Dazhuang added, "The Pan family doesn't have a good reputation anyway. Bringing a suitcase to the prefect in the middle of the night is definitely not good news. Who knows what they're up to."
"The relationship between these two is not ordinary. I wonder if Ning Fuyin will..."
After listening to Niu Dazhuang's vivid description, Song Qianning finally understood how good the relationship between Pan Fushen and Ning Qiuze was.
Carrying a suitcase to look for someone, and going in the middle of the night... No matter how you look at it, there is something unusual about it.
Out of curiosity, Song Qianning immediately thought of the conflict between herself and the Pan family.
Given Pan Ruoruo and her mother's personalities, they were so persistent just because she refused to sell the baby rabbit to her.
Add to that the twenty strokes of the cane that Sun Fuyin punished me with, it was enough for them to hold a grudge against me. I don't know how they curse me behind my back every day, or think of making trouble for me.
As for what Song Qianning and Qin Ye said that day about God being merciful and not wanting to force the Pan mother and daughter into a desperate situation, that also depends on their character.
According to the temperament of the mother and daughter, they lost the case to themselves in court and were beaten with twenty boards... Song Qianning didn't expect them to restrain themselves after these twenty boards.
If they completely hated me because of the twenty slaps on the board, it was somewhat possible. I don't know if Pan Fushen went to find Ning Qiuze this time because of the mother and daughter of the Pan family.
Recalling the conflict between himself and the Pan family, Song Qianning's expression became a little solemn, and he quickly shook his head.
When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Besides, Pan Fushen’s visit to Ning Qiuze may not be related to him. Maybe he has other requests for him.
Just as a customer came in, Niu Dazhuang immediately stopped gossiping and greeted the customer warmly.
After coming to his senses, Song Qianning put the matter behind him and didn't take it to heart, and continued to work on the things at hand.
…
At the same time, in the front hall of the prefectural government.
Ning Qiuze sat in the top seat, stroking the teacup in his hand, without saying a word.
In addition to Ning Qiuze, there was also a middle-aged man sitting below.
The middle-aged man looked at Ning Qiuze with a smile on his face and said, "I wonder what you, the prefect, think of what I mentioned?"
In the middle-aged man's smiling eyes, Ning Qiuze did not answer him immediately, but continued to drink the tea in his hand slowly.
This person was Pan Fushen. Seeing that Ning Qiuze did not answer, he was secretly anxious, but he did not dare to speak rashly and disturb the other party's interest.
After a long silence, Ning Qiuze put the teacup in his hand back on the table. He looked at Pan Fushen with an embarrassed expression, shook his head and sighed, and said slowly: "Pan Fushen, it's not that I don't want to agree to you, it's just that this matter is difficult."
Hearing his answer, Pan Fushen's face froze, and he quickly replied: "As long as you are willing to help me, I will go through fire and water for you. And if the things I gave you are not enough..."
Ning Qiuze felt something in his heart because of Pan Fushen's words, but he still looked embarrassed.
As if he didn't see Pan Fushen's eyes, Ning Qiuze secretly weighed in his heart whether he should agree to Pan Fushen.
As a wealthy man, Pan Fushen lived up to his name. His family was wealthy and he was extremely generous, which made Ning Qiuze look at him with a bit of surprise.
He didn't give a direct answer. After a while, Ning Qiuze looked up and sighed, "Pan Fushen, this isn't a matter of money or not. If it was just an ordinary favor, I would have agreed to it long ago. But this time..."
After making excuses to Pan Fushen, Ning Qiuze used the excuse that he needed to think about it carefully and sent the man away first.
Not long after Pan Fushen left, Ning's figure appeared in the front hall, twisting her waist and walking towards Ning Qiuze: "Master."
Seeing Ning, Ning Qiuze looked away: "Madam."
Glancing outside, Ning stood beside Ning Qiuze, pouting and saying with a look of disdain, "Master, there's quite a conflict between Pan Ruoruo and Song Qianning from the Pan family."
Thinking of the day when Song Qianning bumped into her in the backyard, Ning still felt angry.
It’s a pity that the little bitch Song Qianning is good friends with Sun Qianxue, otherwise she would have taught her a lesson.
Ning was dissatisfied and showed it on her face, then she talked about what happened in the court.
The fact that Song Qianning had used animals to testify in court that day had already spread, and Ning, the wife of the newly appointed prefect, naturally also knew about it.
Ning sneered as he spoke: "Letting animals testify is truly ridiculous."
"Who in the world doesn't know that animals are animals and humans are humans? There are things humans can do that animals can't do. How can livestock, which are used by humans to feed themselves, be compared to humans?"
"Animals don't even have the slightest bit of intelligence. Their biggest purpose is to fill people's stomachs. They can't be compared to humans. To allow animals to testify in court like humans is definitely a fool's errand. I wonder what that grandson is..."
The contempt in Ning's words was not concealed at all: "Perhaps Song Qianning used some devious means to make those animals pretend to be in line. Anyone with a bit of common sense would not believe such foolish talk."
Unexpectedly, Ning Qiuze frowned, his face gloomy: "Shut up, have you forgotten what I told you last time?"
Seeing the coldness and impatience on Ning Qiuze's face, Ning, who was about to belittle Song Qianning again, immediately shut her mouth and dared not say another word.
When faced with his scolding, I could only respond in a flattering manner.
After scolding Ning, Ning Qiuze turned his gaze away from her. His eyes were unfathomable, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The next morning, Song Qianning left home and went to the shop as usual.
As soon as she arrived at the shop, a country woman in coarse clothes bumped into her.
The woman looked at her with a fierce look in her eyes and started to curse: "Little bitch, you're finally here! You've cruelly harmed my whole family. No matter what I say today, you have to pay me!"
