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

When the dishes and dumplings were served on the table, Yindi and Xiaolu left.

Qi quickly called them: "Yuping, Yu'an, what are you doing outside? Come and eat."

Liu Yunqing looked at A'niang. He didn't know when A'niang had named the two of them. Ping'an was simple and nice.

Yindi, also known as Yuping, lowered his head and refused to go in: "It is unreasonable for us to sit at the table when the masters are eating. When the mistress came, she bought us drinks and pancakes. We are not hungry."

The family had hired people before, and Qi had no habit of treating people harshly. Seeing that they were all children and so obedient, she naturally showed more concern for them.

She stepped forward and held each of them by the hand: "We'll talk about the rules later. Today is your first day at home, you should eat something good. If your wife hadn't come back late, I would have prepared two more dishes!"

Qi forced them to sit at the table, with chopsticks in their hands and a bowl of dumplings in front of them. The two little girls couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.

Fortunately, it was dark and the lights were dim so no one could see their expressions clearly. They ate with tears in their eyes. Only then did they understand what it felt like to be a human being.

Liu Yunqing had never seen such a capable girl, except Yuping, who washed the dishes and fed the cats and chickens after dinner.

Seeing some chopped bamboos in the corner of the yard, she used the moonlight to cut the bamboos into strips about two feet long. Then she asked Qi and built a chicken coop in the vacant space.

Yu'an was no less enthusiastic. He took Yunxiang to play with him and did not forget to watch the hot water boiling on the stove to make bath water for the ladies.

The ladies of the Liu family had been busy and chattering for so many days, and finally they could breathe a sigh of relief after seeing Yu Ping and Yu An.

Qi also privately pulled Liu Yunqing aside to ask her how much she spent on the people. When she heard that she spent twelve and a half taels on four people, Qi took a deep breath.

"Is the world outside already so difficult to endure? When I was still a married woman, my family bought me a maid and they charged eight taels per person!"

Liu Yunqing talked it over with A'niang, and Qi finally felt relieved. However, she still felt distressed, so she told her daughters to treat them well. Even if they were bought as slaves, there was no reason to treat them harshly.

For this reason, Qi also specifically explained the family rules to Yuping and Yuan.

Tell them to rest at the end of the day and get up at the beginning of the day, and follow the schedule of the young ladies at home, so that they don't have to go to bed late and get up early to find work at home. They are all at an age where they need to grow up.

When Liu Yunqing heard this, he suddenly felt that his life was even harder than Yuping and the others.

During the day, she has to take care of the family and the bookstore, and at night, she has to take care of Mr. Zhao. She runs around day and night. How can this be a happy life for a kitten? This is not the life of a pure ox or horse!

After bathing, Liu Yunqing turned into a cat, informed Li Baer, and went to the residence of Mr. Zhao in a miserable mood.

Mr. Zhao could endure even longer than her. The lights in the yard were still on. She wondered what he was writing at his desk. But Liu Yunqing took a quick glance and saw the fine cloth tied tightly on his head.

Liu Yunqing's heart skipped a beat.

Why are you injured again!

She hurried forward, meowing continuously, and before she knew it, she stepped one paw into the inkstone on Zhao Chengyan's desk. The soft pad of her flesh fell on the paper, leaving a string of plum blossom marks.

As he climbed onto the person, Zhao Chengyan's snow-blue gown also took on the concerned color of a kitten.

He didn't mind at all. He put down his pen and hugged Tuan'er in his arms. Seeing the nervousness and anxiety in Mao'er's eyes, Zhao Chengyan sent Mao'er away and untied the fine cloth on his head.

"Don't worry, good girl. I know how hurt I am. I hurt myself on purpose."

Liu Yunqing looked carefully and saw a purple bruise on the corner of his forehead with a thin and neat scar on it, as if it had been cut by something sharp.

Afraid that Tuan'er would go to the palace again to avenge him, Zhao Chengyan hurriedly told her the whole story of the injury, and then smiled indifferently at the end.

"I'm very smart, your husband! He looked like he fainted from choking his head, and his body was covered in blood. In fact, I cut myself with broken porcelain pieces on the ground!"

"I'm so used to this self-torture trick. Although I'm not the official's biological son, I'm still his nephew. What's more, I've called him dad for so many years. I knew how to make him feel sorry for me when I was four or five years old."

Liu Yunqing just found it unbelievable. What’s the point of being loved by others? Can you hurt yourself just because you are loved by others?

What's the use of the self-torture tactic for old age? Zhao Chengyan has grown up so big, I dare not imagine how he survived the day!

It makes people feel sorry for it!

What kind of heartache is this?

Liu Yunqing used her little paws to pat Zhao Chengyan's smiling face, but was afraid of hurting him so she didn't dare to use any strength.

She really couldn't bear to see Zhao Chengyan smiling so happily even though he was injured. Whenever he showed any unhappiness or sadness, he would keep everything in his heart!

Zhao Chengyan held Tuan'er's dirty little paws and rubbed them, until his own fingers became black. He knew that his face must be too dirty to look at, but he was happy that his little monster cared about him.

Ren Tuan'er can treat him however she wants.

"Good Tuan'er, don't be angry. I really don't feel wronged. It's true that I was slightly injured, but some people paid with their lives. Just wait and see. I don't even have to do anything. Concubine Li won't survive these two days."

"She has been too proud since she got the child Que'er. There are so many people in the harem who dislike her. The ladies all wish that all the princes would die and only I would be left."

"They all know that the emperor wants to have a son of their own. I am dispensable. They have been fighting for so many years and they don't seem to be tired of it. Sometimes I think that maybe the throne will be mine in the end."

So do you want to be emperor?

Liu Yunqing meowed.

Zhao Chengyan seemed to understand: "I used to want to, but not now. Being an official is not as comfortable as being an official."

If he became an official, how could he have the freedom to accompany his little monster all day long? He couldn't even decide his own marriage. He was just being pushed forward by the government affairs and court officials every day.

When Liu Yunqing was a human being, he was just a small shopkeeper. When he was not a human being, he was just a kitten. He really couldn't think about such complicated things.

She just felt sorry for Zhao Chengyan and was angry that he didn't take care of himself, but Zhao Chengyan didn't care at all. He was even holding her dirty little paw and wanted to give her a bath.

The kitten was allergic to the word "bath", and Liu Yunqing didn't care about it anymore and started struggling.

Zhao Chengyan was just joking. He was holding the little monster in his arms and could already smell the sweet scent of bath beans on her body.

Since the kitten had just finished taking a bath, he did not make things difficult for her. He just held her in his arms and washed her little paws.

Then he placed his little monster on the corner of the table, picked up his pen and continued to finish the painting.

Liu Yunqing stretched his furry head to look. Zhao Chengyan had actually painted plum blossoms falling in the snow in April. However, the wonderful artistic conception was ruined by her messy little paw prints.

Liu Yunqing quickly turned away his amber eyes and pretended to lower his head and lick his paws to hide his embarrassment.
