Parents are busy farming

In the early morning, sunlight poured into the room through the window lattice. Ye Zifen woke up slowly, stretched, and slowly sat up.

Just then, the door was gently pushed open and Aunt Qi walked in with a smile on her face.

"Fifth Miss, we are waiting for you! Sixth Miss, Master Mu and Miss Meng'er have already started to have breakfast. Even our distinguished guest got up very early today and was excited to see the legendary Daxia Sea Temple!"

Aunt Qi said with a smile on her face.

Ye Zifen was casually fixing her hair while she said coquettishly, "What's wrong with these people? They just came back from the sea and were exhausted. They had the opportunity to rest but they didn't take advantage of it. Instead, they got up so early. It makes me look a little lazy."

Madam Qi smiled and replied softly, "In my opinion, it is probably because the Sixth Miss was afraid of embarrassing you that she gritted her teeth and forced herself to get up early."

Ye Zifen nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, expressing her agreement: "Hmm... maybe that's true. Never mind, let's go over and have dinner quickly, and don't keep them waiting for too long."

Aunt Qi came forward and said, "The boat is ready. When night falls, you can stay overnight on the boat. Our boat is spacious enough, so there is no need to build those cumbersome tents."

Ye Zifen nodded to show her satisfaction, and instructed: "That's great. By the way, remember to ask Mother Feng to come along. She has to take good care of everyone's food and daily life these days, and make sure everyone eats comfortably."

Madam Qi asked with a puzzled look on her face: "According to past practice, the Ministry of Rites should have already formulated a response plan by now. Could it be that they want to wait for the people from Liguo to arrive before sending our guests away?"

Ye Zifen nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Daxia today is not a place that foreigners should visit. There are so many refugees here that it is difficult to show the dignity of our country. Therefore, the people of the Ministry of Rites need to be more careful at this time."

Hearing this, Aunt Qi suddenly woke up from her dream and exclaimed, "So that's it! No wonder you insisted on taking this person to the Temple of Poseidon and asked to stay for four or five days. You were trying to delay the time."

Ye Zifen chuckled and said, "Since this person was brought in by our caravan, we should do our best to help Daxia entertain this distinguished guest."

Madam Qi then asked, "Do you need me to write a letter to my old sister to inquire about the specific situation?"

Ye Zifen waved her hands repeatedly and shook her head, saying, "This is really unnecessary. Even if you don't ask about such matters, you can still know the emperor's intention. It is better for you to reduce your contacts as much as possible in the future. Princess Anle still has hostility towards me. If she knew the relationship between you two, it might be disadvantageous to you."

As they were talking, the two had already moved to the restaurant. The table was filled with a variety of exquisite breakfasts, and the aroma was overflowing.

When everyone saw Ye Zifen coming, they all stood up to greet her.

"Ye! Why are you so slow? We've almost finished eating, and you're just now slowly coming over here."

Before anyone else expressed their opinions, our friend from a foreign country could no longer hold back his temper and started complaining first.

Ye Zifen raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and replied softly: "Don't worry, everyone. I have already planned the entire itinerary properly, so there is no need to worry."

After saying this, she sat down calmly, and then began to enjoy the food leisurely, with graceful and slow movements.

After hearing Ye Zifen's words, the others' rapid eating pace gradually slowed down.

"Ye, what is the purpose of that Poseidon Temple?"

Although he couldn't leave immediately, this curious foreign friend obviously couldn't wait and asked questions eagerly.

Ye Zifen took a sip of tea and said slowly, "The Temple of the Sea God is where people worship the Sea God and pray for peace and prosperity. On the coast of our Great Xia, many fishermen believe in the Sea God and firmly believe that he can protect them from sailing safely on the vast ocean and returning home smoothly."

However, the other party did not seem to fully understand the meaning of this, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Then, since you will not go out to sea to fish again so soon, why do you still want to pray for the protection of the sea god?"

Ye Zifen said softly: "Actually, I just want to take you to experience China's beliefs. After all, just like you have your own firm beliefs."

After hearing this, the other party nodded slightly, expressing understanding and agreement.

And responded gratefully: "Thank you very much, Ye. You seem to always have a high respect for our beliefs, and I will definitely treat our differences in the same way as you do."

Ye Zifen then added: "When you arrive at that place in person, you will be able to deeply appreciate the incomparable piety of the people of Daxia in their faith. This emotion is as sincere and deep as the people of your country."

For a moment, the whole atmosphere fell into silence.

After a long time, Ye Zifen finally finished her meal. She said, "Everyone, please go back to your respective residences and tidy up. This trip is expected to last four or five days. Please be sure to bring enough and suitable clothing and supplies, because we will be living on the boat in the next few days. In addition, Mother Feng will be traveling with us, so there is no need to worry about food."

After that, she turned to the foreign friend and continued, "I have specially prepared a few sets of clothes with Daxia characteristics for you. If you don't mind, you may try them on and have a look."

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately showed joy on his face and replied excitedly: "Really? That's great! I will definitely not have any dislike for them. When I return home, I will definitely wear them to show my beloved wife. She once mentioned that the clothes made in your country are quite exquisite and beautiful."

When Ye Zifen heard this, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

He immediately smiled and said, "In that case, I will select a few more exquisite and elegant women's clothing for your wife as a gift. I hope she can also feel the hospitality and friendship of our Daxia people."

"Haha, that's great! Thank you so much for being so generous. I'm really flattered! I will gladly accept your generous gift and will never refuse it."

The other party was obviously overjoyed and did not hide his joy at all.
