Chapter 143 A Different World
"Something like that happened in the store before. Otherwise, no one would come here."
"So the lady used these cats to bring the shop back to life!"
Nangong Hua reached out and touched the furry head of one of the cats.
Pu Qiongzhi patted the little guy who was scratching her clothes and said, "This shop is not dead."
"That's true." Nangong Hua paused, secretly annoyed that he had said the wrong thing.
Pu Qiongzhi didn't take it to heart, but looked around.
"Raccoons shed hair, which can easily stain fabrics. If the master doesn't mind, please wait a moment while I go to the backyard to get some fabric for you!"
"The raccoons in our shop won't bite normally, but if you have delicate skin, you'd better stay away from them!"
"Oh, Aunt Zhang! You're here to bring them food again? What a waste! When we have kittens next year, I'll definitely leave one for you."
However, before she could even smile, the government officials came to her door—
"The government office is investigating a case, everyone should stay away!"
The cat was so scared that it ran away, and Pu Qiongzhi calmed down.
"Lord Yin came really quickly! The account book is right above, please come this way." She made way.
Yin Shuyu looked it up and down, frowning, "Such a precious cloth, stained with livestock hair, how can we sell it to the people?"
"Master Yin, these are for customers, not for sale."
Yin Shuyu said "Oh" and then looked at Pu Qiongzhi, "Then you can raise a group of livestock in this place..."
"Sir, there's no need to call them beasts all the time. It's disgraceful, disgraceful!"
Nangong Hua brushed off his fur and replied lazily.
Yin Shuyu, he recognized her!
One of the followers whom the Ninth Prince did not think highly of.
This is an old acquaintance from my previous life. I even insisted on recognizing him as my godfather!
If they didn't think he was unlucky, they would at least be reunited as father and son.
"Is this Earl Gong Ning?"
Although Yin Shuyu's expression changed slightly, he was not very respectful.
Nangong Hua sneered in his heart.
In his previous life, he knew that he would be granted a title and become a prime minister in the future, so he was very flattering.
Now it is the dog that looks down on people.
It’s really wonderful to see such an attitude in the same person!
After the others entered the room, Pu Qiongzhi said, "The account books are all here. I will personally serve tea to you, sir."
After she said that, she turned around and pulled Nangong Hua aside.
"Does Uncle recognize this person?"
Nangong Hua curled his lips, "Yes. I recognize him."
"This man is the new prefect of Lin'an. He seems to be quite hostile to the Pu family. I have sent people to investigate."
"Master, are you familiar with this person? Do you have any method to deal with him?"
Nangong Hua couldn't bear to see her anxious, "Of course there is."
"Don't worry, ma'am."
"Oh, come on! My account books are still in there, and I'm afraid he's playing tricks on me!"
During the New Year, the dividends for the year have to be determined through the account books.
If the account books are damaged, they will have to work overtime.
"The Yin family does some ugly business."
"They're a bunch of hooligans, most likely jealous of your Pu family."
"I've heard that Yin Shuyu likes this person..."
Nangong Hua was speaking, but he was stuck here and found it difficult to speak.
He leaned over and whispered a few words into Pu Qiongzhi's ear.
Pu Qiongzhi only felt a pleasant fragrance and a tingling sensation in her ears.
As she listened to his whispers, the anxiety in her heart was soothed.
"Got it?" Nangong Hua looked down at her with focused eyes.
Pu Qiongzhi felt a burning sensation in her ears, and she boldly stepped forward and kissed him.
"Eh!" Nangong Hua was startled and his face was flushed with heat.
How could Madam be so bold, kissing him in public...it seems inappropriate.
When Pu Qiongzhi returned, she saw the account books were in a mess.
However, it did not seem to be destroyed.
"I have specially brought some good tea. I am sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
As she spoke, she sent up some more boxes.
"Sir, it will take a while to check these account books. Why don't you take them back to the government office and examine them slowly?"
"I still have business to do here." Pu Qiongzhi gestured for him to go forward.
Yin Shuyu didn't know what she was trying to say and took a few steps forward.
When he saw what was in the box, his eyebrows curved at first, and then he immediately said, "Okay! I don't want to bother you either."
"You are a man of great virtue and integrity. I don't think there will be any major problems with the account."
His expression suddenly changed. Pu Qiongzhi cursed him in her heart as being despicable, but her face still showed a kind and amiable look.
"Then I will send Lord Yin off?" Pu Qiongzhi smiled.
Yin Shuyu blocked it with her fan, "It's just a small matter, so I won't bother you."
"Yes, from now on, I will present the account books to you on time every month." Pu Qiongzhi made her meaning clear without being pretentious.
Yin Shuyu immediately understood that she was saying that these things would be delivered to the mansion regularly.
"No problem. Everything has its give and take, and I will naturally handle the case impartially." After saying that, he left quickly.
After everyone left, Pu Qiongzhi's face darkened, "What a bitch!"
"Madam? You cursed, which is disrespectful." Nangong Hua reminded with a smile.
Pu Qiongzhi curled her lips, "So what if my husband heard it? Does he think Yin Shuyu shouldn't be scolded?"
"It's clearly his hobby, yet he's putting on such a show, all for such a trivial matter. Isn't that childish? If he had just spoken frankly, it would have been fine, but he wants to use our Pu family as a cover, and yet he's acting so bossy!"
Nangong Hua listened to her cursing that person like this, but a somewhat indulgent smile appeared on his face.
"My Lord, why are you looking at me like that?" Pu Qiongzhi had cursed enough and covered her face with a palm-leaf fan, leaving only her glasses exposed as she looked at Nangong Hua.
Nangong Hua quickly put away his smile and looked away, "Madam, you're absolutely right! This bastard, with his filthy eyes and the appearance of a rat, is absolutely despicable! He must be jealous of Madam's beauty and wealth, so he's making things difficult for her! Shameless jealous husband! An unjustifiable villain!"
"Uncle, what you said is really... vulgar and insulting!" Pu Qiongzhi blinked and replied.
Nangong Hua saw that she was saying this back to him again, and he nodded helplessly in agreement, "Yes, yes. Madam is right."
"How did you know, sir, that Yin Shuyu wanted rouge, powder, clothes and jewelry?" Pu Qiongzhi was speechless when she thought of this.
Just now, the uncle told her that Yin Shuyu liked to dress up in red, and she was still surprised.
Now that I think about it, that guy was indeed a feast for the eyes.
Nangong Hua's mouth twitched, "I also accidentally learned that this person has this habit."
"My Lord, you have great access to information, very good." Pu Qiongzhi's words were sincere praise.
Nangong Hua's eyes went dark when he heard this.
Who wants to know such private matters? It's so embarrassing!
"Thanks to my uncle, Yin Shuyu was dealt with in just a few words." Pu Qiongzhi poured him a cup of tea.
Nangong Hua's eyes were filled with worry. "So what are your plans next?"
"I..." Pu Qiongzhi heard that he was asking which side the Pu family was going to stand on.
But she was also a little hesitant about whether to tell him.
Nangong Hua had no intention of forcing her to speak, "If you hesitate, it will only cause trouble."
"It's better to find another way, maybe there will be a new world."
