My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

"I want to give you my pursuit~ and my freedom..." Before the system could finish the next line, Wan Sutong raised her hand and pressed the system on the quilt to mute it, and at the same time said angrily, "0533!"

The shout reached the front yard. Luo Lin was grinding ink for Su Qinghui at the moment. When she heard the shout, she froze in her tracks. "Madam, did you hear what the young lady just shouted?"

Su Qinghui chuckled and put down the brush. "Maybe she quarreled with her pet again."

Luo Lin nodded and asked curiously, "Madam, what does the young lady's pet look like?"

Su Qinghui picked up a brush and drew a gingerbread man on the paper. "It looks like this, as light as a cloud."

Luo Lin nodded and said, "I have never heard of this kind of spirit pet. I remember the storyteller said that the spirit pets are all ancient monsters. I don't know what kind of monster it is."

Su Qinghui smiled calmly and said, "Luo Lin, you take a rest first. I'll go to Tongtong's yard to take a look." Then she turned and walked towards the backyard.

When I arrived at the backyard, I heard Wan Sutong and 0533 arguing. "Whenever I think of Zhao Jinghua now, I can remember him singing "I Have Nothing"! It's all your fault!"

0533 said with an extremely aggrieved tone, "Host, can you blame me for your own dream? I just said one sentence! I didn't expect you to be able to connect the dots when you were dreaming!"

Su Qinghui sighed and walked quickly into Wan Sutong's room. "Sutong, what happened? I heard you shout 0533 in the front yard."

Before Wan Sutong could speak, 0533 snorted and started to talk nonstop, "You came at the right time. The host had a dream in which Zhao Jinghua sang Nothing for her while carrying a bag on his back! When she woke up, she blamed this system, saying that if this system hadn't told her that she could sing rock and roll, she wouldn't have had that dream. She even dared not face Zhao Jinghua! It was Zhao Jinghua who said last night that if he was really deposed as the crown prince, he would take her to travel around the world, so she made the connection. She still blames this system!"

After hearing this, Su Qinghui raised her hand to support her forehead and said, "Tongtong, this is your fault. How can you blame 0533 for your own dream?" The system hid behind Su Qinghui and nodded, "That's right."

Wan Sutong crossed her arms and turned her head away, "Huh! Mom, why are you still leaning towards it?"

Su Qinghui sighed, "Tongtong, you are not right. Dreaming is what you think about during the day and what you dream about at night. You remembered that 0533 said it would sing rock and roll, and you also remembered that Zhao Jinghua said he would take you on a journey, so you had this dream."

But Wan Sutong turned his head and said more confidently, "If it didn't say he could rock, would I have this dream?"

The system sighed heavily. "Host, didn't you ask me, is there anything else you don't know? That's why I told you that I can sing rock and roll!"

Su Qinghui burst out laughing after hearing this. "Okay, Tongtong, it's just a dream, why take it so seriously?"

Wan Sutong pursed her lips and said, "Okay." Then she quickly went downstairs and said, "I have to go see how the restaurant business is today."

An incense stick later, Wan Sutong arrived at Wanfulou in a carriage. There were still a few customers in the restaurant. Wan Sutong came to the side of the accountant and asked, "How much did you earn yesterday?"

The accountant made a five gesture, and Wan Sutong's eyes lit up instantly. "Five hundred coins, that's a lot!"

However, the accountant shook his head and said sadly, "Fifty cents for ten bowls of plain noodles."

Wan Sutong was stunned when she heard this. "Did I hear it right? Fifty cents!"

The accountant stroked his beard and said, "You heard me right. The copper coins I earned in the past half month are not even half of what I lost that day."

Wan Sutong was so upset that she wanted to cry but had no tears. "I might as well just close the shop."

At the same time, Zhao Jinghua from the East Palace study sighed, "The Minister of Rites slept soundly last night."

The Minister of Rites kowtowed immediately and said, "I am unable to sleep or eat. I know I have made a serious mistake. Please punish me, Your Highness."

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and took a sip of tea. "It's not a big mistake, but I can't sleep or eat when I think back to what happened yesterday. If I punish you, it would be a bit petty, but if I don't punish you, you have also made a mistake." The Minister of Rites was horrified when he heard this. "Your Highness..."

Zhao Jinghua put down the teacup and said, "How about this? I just happen to be in need of a servant to grind ink. From now on, the Minister of Rites can come to me to grind ink after the court session."

Upon hearing this, the Minister of Rites kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace."

Zhao Jinghua stood up and sighed, "Get up, it's time to go to court. You and I are the only ones missing." After that, Zhao Jinghua walked away.

The Minister of Rites quickly stood up and followed Zhao Jinghua out of the East Palace. "Your Highness, I promise there will never be a next time. I will definitely select you carefully on your birthday next year."

Zhao Jinghua frowned after hearing this and said, "No need. If my father asks me about it in the future, I will just say that the girl I like is still young and it will take another two or three years."

The Minister of Rites was stunned when he heard this. "I wonder how big it is?"

Zhao Jinghua turned his head to look at the Minister of Rites. "Is the Minister of Rites confused?"

After hearing this, the Minister of Rites calmed down and thought about it carefully, "Oh! Right, Doukou!"

Zhao Jinghua stopped walking when he heard this, and spoke in a low voice, "Do you think I'm a beast? I'm still a child!"

The Minister of Rites knelt hurriedly and said, "Your Highness, please calm down. I just remembered that it was the age of 15."

At the same time, Wan Sutong came to Fengming Building and complained, "Oh, don't even mention the rent, the wages are not enough!" When he said this, Wan Sutong spoke very quickly, while gesturing numbers with his right hand, "My store has a waiter, 500 wen, an accountant, one tael of silver, and a cook! Five taels of silver!" After that, Wan Sutong gestured with trembling hands, "Five taels of silver! A total of 6,500 wen" Feng Ming, who was watching, nodded continuously, "Sister? Can you keep up with the numbers while you are talking?"

Wan Sutong turned his head away speechlessly and sighed, "Brother, don't worry about whether I can keep up or not, I'm going to pay you back!"

Feng Ming handed Wan Sutong a cup of tea, and then said to Wan Sutong, "Just be content. This is ancient times and you don't have to pay for water and electricity. If you still have electricity and water, you will lose your underwear."

Wan Sutong raised her head and drank the tea in one gulp, then looked at Feng Ming in surprise, "Brother, why aren't you worried?"

Feng Ming patted Wan Sutong's shoulder with a chuckle and said, "I own the land deed, so I don't need to pay for it. The girls here are all clamoring not to get money, as long as they are given food and shelter. We are like a family. Your restaurant is not good, but those are men who have to support their families. How many mouths at home depend on him for food?"

Wan Sutong nodded, her tone full of helplessness and sadness, "I know, I won't deduct their wages, but the rent of ten taels of silver, if I don't pay my original capital, I really can't take it out. Seeing that the rent is only three days away, I can't accept it."

Feng Ming sighed and said earnestly, "Just hold on a little longer, things will get better in a few months, and then you won't be able to take out any more than ten taels of silver."

Wan Sutong's hands were shaking and his tone was sad, "Brother, you are making it sound so easy. That's 50,000 points! Excluding what Jinghua gave me, I only made a little over 130,000 points a year! Less than 27 taels of silver! I was finally reaching 30 taels, but this happened to me! I was planning to open a branch! Fortunately, I didn't! If I did, I would have lost a lot of money!" However, Feng Ming completely ignored what Wan Sutong said at this time, and only heard the word Jinghua, "You called him Jinghua? You two have such a good relationship!"

"Oh my god!" Wan Sutong was so angry that she held her forehead and said helplessly, "Can you get the point? I was calling him Zhaolang yesterday on the Qiqiao Festival! What should I do now?"

Feng Ming was shocked after hearing this, "You still call him Zhao Lang!"

Wan Sutong completely collapsed when he heard this, "I give up!"
