Puis vs ensuite

Salut! In the last sentence I had written “ensuite” instead of puis but this is marked incorrect. I thought they were interchangeable? Please can you tell me the difference?

list of verbs that require an indirect object pronounBonjour! Would the verb mettre & other verbs containing mettre (admettre; promettre etc), all require an indirect object pronoun instead of a direct object pronoun, please? Reason being that these verbs are followed by the preposition à. (I'm trying to make a list of all verbs that require an indirect object pronoun: "to him/her"; "to them") Cheryl

use of plus-que parfaitAs a first step into B2 territory, I'm trying to understand how/when this tense is used. My first idea is that it is used in a "story- telling" way. e.g. Elles étaient allées manger une glace. They had gone to eat an ice cream.... Thus they were not home when the tree fell in their house. Or: "I know a tree fell on their house- are they okay? Yes, they had gone to eat an ice cream." So, am I going in the right direction as far as understanding how this tense is used?
