The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 98
Bai Jiujiu was puzzled, is this Xia Jinchai so good that all the women inside and outside the mansion covet him?If they knew his identity as the god of war in the heavens, how crazy would they become!

Just as he was about to shake his head and shake off this terrible thought, suddenly there was a sound of light and steady footsteps behind him.Then, a gentle voice came from behind.

"Miss Bai, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing a familiar voice, Bai Jiujiu immediately stood up and walked back.Suddenly, the gloomy mood suddenly cleared up a bit.

"Ah, it's you, Mr. Deng!"

Deng An smiled slightly at her: "Miss Bai calls me that, it's really strange."

"Hehe." Bai Jiujiu smirked, "Aren't you the accountant?"

Can she say that she has forgotten his name after seeing her for a few days?No, she didn't want to admit it.

Seeing that Deng An frowned slightly, he hurriedly changed his words: "Why don't I call you Big Brother Deng from now on?"

If it were someone else, when they heard such an answer, they would probably nod and agree.But Deng An didn't do that. He just waved his hand towards Bai Jiujiu, and said, "Just call me by my name. I prefer people to call me by my name directly."

"Oh, good, hehe. Deng An."

Bai Jiujiu immediately yelled with a smile.It immediately attracted Deng An's gentle smile towards her.

Seeing Bai Jiujiu shifting her gaze to her feet from time to time, Deng An couldn't help asking: "Is there any discomfort? Or is your foot crooked?"

"No, it's just that I accidentally bumped into pain when I was walking." His eyes fell on the stone at his feet, thinking of his own walking image, Bai Jiujiu suddenly blushed.

Deng An seemed to understand it.The corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, and there was a smile in her eyes, but she didn't laugh out loud. She stretched out an arm without saying a word, and supported Bai Jiujiu for a while until she was sent to the door of the house.

Before parting, Bai Jiujiu suddenly remembered that she had delayed Deng An's affairs.

"My lord is probably already asleep. If you don't have something urgent, you can go tomorrow."

"Why do you think I'm looking for the lord?" A gentle smile bloomed on Deng An's face again, and before Bai Jiujiu could ask any questions, those slender and clean fingers suddenly made a fist in front of Bai Jiujiu, Then spread it out like a magic trick, causing Bai Jiujiu to breathe in and exclaim.

"Wow, five taels of silver!" With just one glance, Bai Jiujiu counted the numbers with ease.

Then, he said worriedly: "You don't just take them around with you all day long, do you?"

Seeing her cautious face, Deng An finally couldn't hold back his laughter anymore: "This is Bai Jiujiu's salary, you don't really think that the prince has deducted all of it, do you?"

"Mine? Really?" Bai Jiujiu suddenly became excited.Stretched out two small hands and grabbed the few small pieces of silver.

However, before she had collected all the money, the action came to an abrupt stop.

"It's really yours, take it." Seeing her cautious movements, as if she was thinking about something, Deng An raised her hand again to confirm it.

Bai Jiujiu raised her undecided head, looked at Deng An one after another, and said a little awkwardly after a long while: "Deng An, there is a small matter, do you mind helping me?"

Deng An nodded: "As long as Deng An can do it."

"Hey, that's good." Bai Jiujiu's small face suddenly blossomed with joy.He gently closed Deng An's hands that were spreading the silver, and said happily and reassuringly: "You are Mr. Accountant, there should be a place to deposit the silver. So, I will deposit the five taels of silver in yours." You can keep it for me, okay?"

Originally, Deng An had always doubted those rumors, but now seeing Bai Jiujiu's words and deeds, he suddenly understood.It also felt more distressed for Bai Jiujiu.

Just about to nod her head to answer, Bai Jiujiu added in a timely manner: "Not only the five taels this time, but also the five taels next month, the next month, and the next month's five taels. Let it go all the time, okay?"

Deng An smiled: "Okay, as long as you trust me, I will give you another record of your monthly salary. Then, when you need money, you can come to me to get it at any time."

Bai Jiujiu's eyebrows, which hadn't smiled happily for a long time, suddenly turned into crescent eyebrows, raised her head and said sweetly to Deng An: "Deng An, you are so kind!"

So, Bai Jiujiu sent the salary for several months to Deng An.As for Deng An, he is also a careful person.For the sake of safety, he did not carry all of Bai Jiujiu's property with him, nor did he store them in his own residence. Instead, he specially set up a separate account for her, and clearly recorded her deposits and expenditures in his own place. .

Because of Yin Zi's relationship, Bai Jiujiu and Deng An walked closer and less frequently.

On this day, it was Bai Jiujiu's free time again.According to her restless personality, she must have to go out and hang out again before she is willing to honestly return to the palace to do things.

But when she was wandering through the bustling streets, she suddenly smelled a fragrant aroma of wine.This fragrance is mellow and pleasant, and it is probably even better than the wine stored in Chai Wangfu.

Thinking that he could see it but not drink it for so many days, the wine worm in Bai Jiujiu's belly was hooked and itched unbearably.Without any explanation, he quickened his pace and sniffed all the way to find it.The hard work paid off, and she finally found the source of the smell of alcohol in a certain street.

"What are you doing, you are not allowed to jump in line!"

Excitedly, I was about to run forward to smell it and taste it, but I was blocked by a man who stopped me.

Bai Jiujiu turned around, only to suddenly realize that there was still a queue for buying wine... a queue as long as a long dragon.Then it's my turn until the year of the monkey?
While he was struggling and thinking of a solution quickly, the guy at the door of the shop started yelling loudly.

"Our store has sold out all the wine this morning, if you need it, please come early next month!"

Just such a sentence immediately caused all kinds of disappointed and lamented voices in the team. Although they all expressed their regret that they didn't have good wine, they still went back to their respective homes shaking their heads.But Bai Jiujiu didn't agree, and watched the waiter carrying a few empty wine jars in, swallowed his saliva and quickly followed up.

"Excuse me, what kind of wine is this? It smells delicious!"

The waiter looked at her with a strange look, as if he despised her ignorance.However, she finally looked at her smiling face and pious eyes and lazily replied: "Have you never heard of 'One step at a time, happy like a fairy'? It refers to this wine in our shop!"
