Chapter 464, Discuss Nicely

"Look at you, where is your mind wandering off to!" Yun Zihan glared at Liao Shijie, irritated.

"I know your plan, among these people there must be a few capable ones. In the future, you want to secure a steady footing in the imperial court. Having the support of Prince Rui alone won't suffice. But my dear husband, we only have so much silver. The revenue from the several estates we own will still take some time, and the money from the shop isn't enough for our regular expenses, let alone for the scholars' ink, paper, brushes, and inkstones—all of which cost a hefty sum. We still have more than two years to go, we must think of a solution!"

As Yun Zihan spoke, she hugged Liao Shijie's neck, "Driving people away is the most unreliable option. Nowadays, before I step out, I have to check myself several times, just to make sure I don't tarnish your reputation and jeopardize your future!"

"I have wronged you!" Liao Shijie embraced his delicate wife tightly.
