Chapter 30 Blueprints
Nangong Xue got drunk in Qinlou last night.
When he woke up in a daze, he found that Uncle Yang had brought him some hangover soup and also prepared some porridge and side dishes.
He has never been valued at home, let alone being taken care of when he is hungover.
This treatment made him feel a little scared.
Nangong Xue's face was filled with horror. "Uncle Yang... my second brother sold me out?"
"Third Young Master, that's not true. Lord Bo has always been thinking about you. Brothers naturally support each other."
"Forget it. There's no place for me and the fourth brother in this house!" Nangong Xuesong stretched his muscles, slowly stood up, rubbed his aching head, and asked suspiciously, "When did the second brother become so attentive?"
Uncle Yang was a little embarrassed, but he smiled and said to him, "This was arranged by my wife."
"Her?" Nangong Xue paused, not touching the hangover soup. "Is there some conspiracy?"
"If someone is being too attentive without any reason, he's either a traitor or a thief! I think she's just a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, nothing good can come of it!"
Uncle Yang didn't know how to react for a moment.
As a servant, it is better for him to stay out of the master's affairs.
"Oh, right, that's what Madam sent over there. She said it's a gift for you... Madam said she needs a small favor from you. I'm waiting for your reply."
Nangong Xue frowned and stared at the letter not far away. She stood up and walked over, pulled out the paper, shook it, and glanced at it casually.
Then, he sat up straight and clutched the paper tightly. "Where is she?"
"Madam is accompanying the uncle in the main courtyard right now. You can have some sobering soup first..." Uncle Yang had not finished his words when he disappeared.
Liubei Garden.
"Can you really find the New Instrumental Dharma?"
Nangong Xuefeng rushed in and asked Pu Qiongzhi directly.
"Ahem, is this the proper etiquette when talking to your brother and sister-in-law?" Nangong Hua cast a cold gaze on him.
Pu Qiongzhi smiled softly, "Third Uncle, you're too polite. Come, sit down and have some tea and talk slowly."
After all, when she asked someone to do something, she couldn't take it for granted, even if it was a family member.
"Uncle San, to be honest, I've only found 70% of the books on this list... I haven't found the New Instrumental Methods yet, but my restaurant is desperate to see the blueprints."
"If Third Uncle is willing to help, as long as we have the news, the caravans that come with the Pu Chamber of Commerce will do their best to find him. What do you think, Third Uncle?"
Pu Qiongzhi pondered how to pry open the relationship between the two, and remembered that Yuger had mentioned before that Nangong Xue liked to look at the stars.
She thought that her love of stargazing must be due to her interest in astronomical phenomena, constellations, and divination, so she asked someone to compile a list of relevant and famous books and compiled a list.
Fortunately, her father always felt that the Pu family was of humble origin and loved to collect all kinds of books, so it was not difficult for her to have someone copy one.
However, this "New Instrumental Method" was hidden too well and its whereabouts have been unknown... However, Pu Qiongzhi still took it out to lure Nangong Xue, to see if he can resist this temptation!
Nangong Xue's eyes flickered, and she seemed to be struggling over whether to take action.
It would take some time to build the two restaurants from drawing the blueprints to construction, and he didn't want to be tied down and unable to escape.
However, even without the "New Yixiang Fa Yao", he couldn't refuse the "Yingzao Fashi", "Mengxi Bi Tan", and "Lingtai Miyuan"...
"How did sister-in-law know that I was Han Suzi?" Nangong Xue suddenly came to her senses and asked suspiciously.
He has always kept his identity a secret, and almost no one around him knows about it. He hasn't even told his friends who used to drink and have fun with him!
Pu Qiongzhi blinked and looked at Nangong Hua who was sitting beside her and leisurely looking through the chess manual.
Nangong Hua replied very coldly, "I told her."
“……?” Nangong Xue was a little confused.
But how did the second brother know that he was Han Suzi?
As if seeing his confusion, Nangong Hua said in a nonchalant manner, "Han Suzi, isn't it just snow?"
"But you and Father... haven't you always disliked my unconventional ways?" Nangong Xue was truly baffled. "Besides, you should only know that I observe the stars and tell fortunes!"
"Haven't you always liked these things? What's the difference? Back when you were more active as Han Suzi, you were sneaking around all day, so I followed you once. Besides, when I was little, I saw you crawling under a bridge to study the mortise and tenon structure..."
Nangong Hua's expression remained unchanged as he talked about some trivial and ordinary things that seemed insignificant to him.
But when Nangong Xue heard this, her heart was deeply touched.
He looked at Nangong Hua in surprise, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have never understood this brother.
He always thought that he was insignificant in the mansion, but he didn't expect that his second brother actually knew his secret. He always felt that there was no humanity in their family, but he didn't expect that without his knowledge, his second brother also paid some attention to him.
Maybe what Uncle Yang said was true... Second brother was thinking about him.
Thinking of this, he looked at Pu Qiongzhi and said, "Okay, I'll help you with the blueprint!"
"Thank you very much, Uncle San!" Pu Qiongzhi immediately smiled and sent the person out in a safe manner.
After they left, she looked at Nangong Hua, who was sitting nearby watching the chess game, and flattered him, "Thanks to my husband's words, I was able to successfully ask my third uncle to help me draw the map. I thank my husband~"
"It's rare that his miscellaneous skills can be put to use!" Nangong Hua blamed the matter on Nangong Xue without changing his expression, but his ears were red and his hand holding the chess piece did not let go for a long time.
Pu Qiongzhi smiled faintly, "Uncle is very considerate and takes great care of Third Uncle. He is a good brother."
“…” Nangong Hua lowered his eyebrows and said nothing.
In fact, he and Nangong Xue did have a bad relationship. The reason he knew this was simply because Nangong Xue had been in trouble in his previous life, so he sent a spy to monitor his every move.
Even though he knew all this at the time, he still scoffed and didn't care. He even wondered if he would have ordered Nangong Xue's removal without hesitation if she had done anything that was detrimental to him...
But now, maybe, with everything starting over again, his views on some things would be different.
No matter what, if these things can help Madam, they must be great!
Nangong Hua looked at Pu Qiongzhi's profile, and his heart gradually warmed up again.
However, Pu Qiongzhi's attention seemed to be completely distracted by her own menu. She was thinking about how to arrange the restaurant so that she could make a lot of money every day!
Before that, she had another thing to worry about - she received two invitations from the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince invited Wen Shuan and the young master of the Pu family to the Ninth Prince's Mansion respectively.
