After chatting in the bookstore for a while, Yan Funing took Fu Beimo and Caiyu back home.

At home, Fu Ciyi and Lu Wenfeng were drinking tea.

Fu Nanyao sat aside, with a blush on her face.

This made Yan Funing confused. When she reminded Fu Nanyao earlier, she said she knew Lu Wenfeng had an affair.

Now she seems to be embarrassed.

Yan Funing shook her head, really confused, and Lu Wenfeng happened to look towards her.

"Miss Yan."

She nodded politely: "Mr. Lu."

After saying hello, he took Caiyu back to his room.

Fu Beimo said to his brother, "Brother, my sister-in-law and I have bought you a birthday gift."

Before Fu Ciyi said anything, Lu Wenfeng said, "Is Ciyi's birthday coming soon?"

Fu Nanyao said: "My brother's birthday is the day after tomorrow."

"In that case, I will come to ask for a drink the next day. Don't let me eat today." Lu Wenfeng stood up and said, "Ci Yi, I will take my leave now."

Just now he said that he came to see Fu Nanyao, but Ciyi kept a cold face.

Under such circumstances, there is no way to get food at Fu's house today.

It's better to step down for yourself right now.

Fu Ciyi said coldly: "I didn't intend to keep you." He raised his hand and said, "Ali, see the guest off."

Lu Wenfeng's lips froze: "Ciyi, you..."

Fu Ciyi lightly reminded: "If you have other thoughts, it's better to leave them in Chunwei while Fu Minghe holds his grudge."

"True advice is hard on the ears but helps in action. I will listen to you." Lu Wenfeng waved his hand and walked away, "I'm leaving. No need to send me off."

Meng Li, who had been silent all this time, said: "My young master had no intention of sending it to you."

Lu Wenfeng stopped suddenly and pointed his index finger at Meng Li: "You kid."

After all, he didn't continue talking and left.

The days passed quickly, and it was October 16th soon.

Today is Fu Ciyi’s birthday.

Early in the morning, under the auspices of Wan Niang, a simple crowning ceremony was performed for the eldest son.

Fu Ciyi kowtowed to his mother as a courtesy.

Wan Niang helped her son up and sighed: "Your father should preside over the crowning ceremony. But when I think about such a person in the world, my head hurts."

Fu Ciyi comforted her with a gentle voice: "Mother, don't miss this person."

Fu Nanyao asked curiously: "In my brother's impression, what does my father look like?"

Fu Ciyi's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said coldly: "I forgot."

Fu Beimo also asked: "How can someone as smart as my brother forget?"

Wan Niang smiled: "What are you asking? How old was Ci Yi when Wei Niang and Ci Yi fled to Ling County."

She had lost her memory and couldn't remember what happened a year ago.

Since Ciyi was young, it was reasonable not to remember.

Seeing that the topic was a bit heavy, Yan Funing smoothed things over and took out the brocade box held in silk and satin: "Husband, this is my birthday gift to you. Do you like it?"

Fu Ciyi took the brocade box but did not open it.

Fu Beimo also took out a gift: "Brother, this is what I gave you."

Fu Ciyi took it and opened it directly. He was startled by the title of the book.

"A Gentleman's Guide"! ?

What the hell?

"Sister-in-law said you need it very much and you will like it." Fu Beimo smiled innocently and harmlessly, "Brother, don't you like it? Is it true that sister-in-law said it wrong?"

Fu Ciyi glanced at Yan Funing with a pair of cold eyes and smiled suddenly: "I like Duiji very much."

He said it through gritted teeth.

Fu Nanyao took out a box and gave it to Fu Ciyi: "Brother, do you like my gift?"

Fu Ciyi opened it directly. Inside was a small ornament with the words "Title on the Gold List" written on it. He said calmly: "Not bad." After that, he went back to his room with the gift.

Yan Funing followed.

Unexpectedly, he walked very fast, so she ran after him all the way, and only caught up with him after entering the main courtyard.

"Hey, why don't you open my gift?"

"I want to leave the gift that I value the most and open it carefully in the dead of night. Is that okay?"

The man glanced at her, and there was an undercurrent in Gujing Wubo's eyes.

Yan Funing was confused when she heard this, her footsteps were stuck in the small courtyard, unable to move.

Fu Ciyi glanced at her again and returned to the study.

At this moment, Liu Song came to the Fu family.

Caiyu came to the main courtyard and called Yan Funing: "Girl, shopkeeper Liu said that he has something urgent to discuss with you."

Yan Funing no longer thought about what someone said and followed Caiyu to the front yard.

When Liu Song saw her, he complained like he was pouring beans into his bamboo tube: "My dear, Huang Aodong's inn is opening today..."

After hearing this, Yan Funing summarized a lot of what he said.

The general meaning is that the inn opened early to steal the business of Liu Ji Restaurant, and the price of the hotel was directly lower than half of Liu Ji's.

Caiyu said: "This is too much. Are they regardless of the cost?"

Liu Song said bitterly: "It costs a lot of money just to build the inn, and now it is attracting business at such a low price. The purpose is self-evident."

"The purpose is to suppress Liu Ji." Yan Funing said calmly, "Uncle, let's go take a look and see what we will do next."

Liu Song nodded and raised his hand to lead the way.

Yan Funing followed with Caiyu and Li Xinheng.

The newly built inn is not far from the market, and it is extremely busy at the moment.

Many guests who were originally going to stay at Liu Ji Restaurant were attracted to the inn. Not only that, guests who had been staying at Liu Ji Restaurant for a few days checked out and stayed at the newly opened inn.

After stopping for a moment at the door of the new inn, Yan Funing and Liu Song returned to the restaurant.

"Daughter, you have seen the situation, what should you do now?"

"The owners behind that inn are County Magistrate Fu and Mr. Yan. We want to compete with them for the guests staying in the inn, but we can't. But one thing is that they can't compete with them in terms of food."

Liu Song nodded: "According to my daughter's wishes, let's focus on the food business and not do the tourism and hotel business?"

"Now that the weather is getting colder and late autumn is bleak, the tourism business is no longer possible. As for the hotel business, that's all. Uncle, let's focus on opening a restaurant in the capital."

Liu Song's eyes lit up: "Yes, how could I have forgotten this? Just let those money-grubbing thieves roam around Qingshan Town!"

Liu Song is the only one who calls Magistrate Fu and Second Master Yan little thieves.

Yan Funing chuckled.

Seeing her smile, Liu Song was happy: "Daughter, our uncle and nephew are not afraid of anything if we join forces."

With a direction, he worked hard up and down Liu Ji Restaurant and was not affected by Huang Aodong's inn at all.

At noon, Fu Ciyi came to the restaurant surrounded by a crowd of people.

This group of people are the masters of Qingshan Academy led by the pavilion chief, plus one person, Lu Wenfeng.

They asked for a large private room and opened two tables to celebrate Fu Ciyi's birthday.

While they were having a lively meal, someone went to the Fu family's new house.

Looking at the unfamiliar middle-aged man in front of her, Fu Nanyao asked politely: "What's the matter?"

Huang Aodong smiled and introduced: "I have heard that Duke Jie Yuang is a great talent. It just so happens that I have an inn opening today, and I would like to ask your brother to help me write the inscription."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to signal the young woman following him to come forward.

Looking at the woman with a tight waist and a strong fragrance exuding from her body, Fu Nanyao wondered: "Who is this?"

Huang Aodong had a smile on his face: "It's such a small thing but disrespectful. I'll give this to Mr. Jie Yuangong as a bed-warming maid."
