Transformed into a furry person, I am doing public relations in the Northern Song Dynasty

Qi nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! Liu Chenggong is always strong on the outside but weak on the inside. He will not dare to act rashly when seeing the government officials coming. What belongs to us is ours. Let's take back the old store quickly to avoid any more trouble."

Liu Yunqing nodded in agreement and lay on a bamboo chair in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air, feeling very comfortable. He chatted a few more words, and as he spoke, Liu Yunqing couldn't stop yawning and tears came out.

Qi laughed at her but also felt sorry for her, so she urged Liu Yunqing to go over and have a rest, and tell her everything tomorrow.

Without Zhao Chengyan's clinging presence at night, she no longer felt hot sleeping close to each other. But the empty space in front of her made her feel a little uncomfortable. She tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep.

The next morning, Liu Yunqing sent Shen Heng to the bookstore. She would not go there today. After giving the order, she took a light nap and then got up to have breakfast.

However, who would have thought that after changing clothes and washing up and walking to the front hall, there was an unexpected guest at the table. The man couldn't help laughing when he saw her and asked her to sit down, acting like a host.

"I brought some fried rice cakes that everyone loves. If you don't get up now, they will get cold. Hurry up and sit down and have a taste."

Liu Yunqing sat down next to him and thought that what Zhao Chengyan said was very high-sounding, something about the fried rice cakes that everyone loves to eat.

A'niang doesn't like to eat this, she thinks it's too oily. Yunxiang can't eat this either because she can't digest it. Only she and Yunxi can eat it. Of course, if you talk about liking to eat something, she likes this the most.

"When did you come? Why didn't you call me?"

Liu Yunqing picked up a piece of golden fried rice cake and took a bite. The outer shell was crispy, the inside was soft and glutinous, with hot red bean paste in the middle.

Before Liu Yunqing could wait for someone to reply to the first sentence, the second sentence popped out in surprise.

"You bought this at Daxiangguo Temple, right? I haven't had it for a long time. The taste of this place is so different from other places! There are so many people lining up every day. You must have woken up very early!"

Zhao Chengyan smiled and did not take credit for it: "Of course I didn't go there in person, but I happened to go to Daxiangguo Temple at twilight hour yesterday, and passed by that fried cake shop. I remembered what you said, so I gave them some more silver and kept a portion for them."

"When I came here, I just turned around and went to the Daxiangguo Temple. I didn't even stay there, let alone queue."

When it comes to being thoughtful, no one can compare to Mr. Zhao. He always keeps in mind what the people he cares about say.

She had only mentioned the fried cakes once in front of others, saying that her home was not far from the Daxiangguo Temple, and whenever she wanted to eat them, her mother would get up a few minutes earlier and buy them for her.

But now that she has moved far away, she couldn't bear to ask her mother to run so far again, so she never mentioned it again. Occasionally, when she wanted to eat fried cakes, there were also fried cakes at the morning market near her home, but the taste was slightly different, so it was not a big deal.

"That's because you ran around a lot. You don't dare to go to the Daxiangguo Temple casually. It's lively, but it's crowded from morning to night. It's a good thing you can squeeze in by carriage."

Zhao Chengyan smiled but didn't respond. He didn't go there by carriage. Just as Liu Yunqing said, Daxiangguo Temple was so crowded that he had to get up half an hour earlier to squeeze in.

But this is just a small matter, so there is no need to show off in front of others.

The two of them were chatting and laughing while having breakfast. Qi just felt that she was an eyesore. Just then, Yunxiang finished her meal and wanted to go to Master Lin with Shen Shan to read books and listen to stories. So Qi took the two children and went ahead.

Yunxi and others also went to the bookstore early, leaving only Liu Yunqing and Zhao Chengyan at home.

Without anyone watching, the two of them naturally became closer. Liu Yunqing ate too many fried cakes and her stomach felt uncomfortable. Zhao Chengyan rubbed her for a while and then she took a hawthorn pill, and she felt better.

Seeing that Liu Yunqing was not in a hurry to go to the bookstore, Zhao Chengyan knew that she must have other arrangements. The two of them talked while tidying up the dishes, tables and chairs.

When Zhao Chengyan heard that Liu Yunqing was going to find Cheng Li to go to the old bookstore to fulfill the bet, he also insisted on going together.

However, Liu Yunqing was somewhat worried: "It's a waste of talent to ask you to help with such a small matter. Liu Chenggong won't agree so easily. If he makes a scene, it will definitely attract the attention of the neighbors. I'm afraid people will gossip about you."

Zhao Chengyan didn't care about this at all, but he knew that Liu Yunqing was considering him.

After all, no matter how right Liu Yunqing is, she and Liu Chenggong are still father and daughter. If he goes too far, he will inevitably be branded as an unfilial person, and he might also be implicated.

However, it was also because of his presence that Yun Qing was able to shield herself from the rumors. The good reputation that Mr. Zhao had accumulated over the years was not in vain.

There is no need to think too much about whether everyone believes in him or Liu Chenggong.

"We are upright and honest, so why should we be afraid of rumors? The matter you sued caused a big stir, and everyone knew that I was there, so I was a witness. Now I will not cause trouble if I go with you again."

Liu Yunqing couldn't bear Zhao Chengyan's pleading, so he had to agree. After tidying up the house, the two of them took the gambling agreement signed in the court that day and went to Kaifeng Prefecture together.

The gatekeeper knew Liu Yunqing and Mr. Zhao, and he quickly invited them in. Mr. Zhang happened to be free, and knowing the purpose of their visit, he called Cheng Li to bring his men to go with them.

Perhaps because he was afraid that the young lady might be uneasy, Lord Zhang gave her a special warning.

"You don't have to worry about being accused of being unfilial and heartless. I am the judge of your case. Even if they are father and daughter, what can we do? We have to do what we have to do."

"If you hear someone say you are unfilial, feel free to file a complaint. You are a good writer, so just state the cause and effect, and I will make the decision for you."

In addition to the last time in court, Liu Yunqing had met Lord Zhang several times in private. He always thought of his mansion's contribution during every festival, and the bookstore always invited Lord Zhang to attend any activities.

Liu Yunqing now not only has a good relationship with Lord Zhang, but also has an even better relationship with his wife and daughter, so there is a certain element of protecting his children in these words. Liu Yunqing can see it clearly and is grateful.

There was no outsider in the room anyway, so Liu Yunqing no longer called him Lord Zhang, but just called him Uncle.

"Thanks to Uncle Zhang, I feel much more at ease now. Sister Yuan has invited me to go hiking with her in September. I will have to bother Uncle again then."

Zhang Linyuan is the second daughter of Mr. Zhang, and is the same age as Liu Yunqing. Mr. Zhang has two daughters, but the younger one is still unmarried and is kept by his side, whom he dotes on very much.

When Zhang Linyuan was mentioned, Lord Zhang's expression became even gentler.

"It's not a bother. You little girls can go and have fun. I won't be a bother."

After chatting and laughing for a while, Liu Yunqing and Zhao Chengyan walked out of the yamen gate. It was almost time for lunch in another hour, and they didn't want to miss the meal, so they headed straight to the old bookstore.
