C184 (2/2)

The couple came downstairs to entertain their guests.

Uncle Biao had already woken up early to make breakfast. It was a hot day and he was sweating profusely as he sat in the backyard enjoying the cool air. Aunt Zhang said, ”I don't know if those foreigners get used to eating rice porridge as a side dish. ”Regardless of them, you guys eat your breakfast first.”

However, the group of guests seemed to be tired and only woke up when it was late in the morning. Susu curiously followed Xiaowan to look at them.

They also did not say that they were used to eating breakfast and would eat whatever they gave. The group of people were quiet and did not talk much.

After Da Qing went to the pier, he immediately ran back, saying that there was a huge boat parked there, none of the other boats could enter, and the people on the boat were in conflict with the people on the boat, so the group of pagans could not speak Chinese, so they were unable to communicate on both sides, causing a huge commotion.

Ling Chaofeng and Xiaowan turned to look at the man who was gracefully eating the porridge. The couple looked at each other.

After breakfast, they went out. It was originally the look of a sightseer, but because of how eye-catching he looked, he was surrounded wherever he went. In the afternoon, Da Qing sent another message saying that Prefect Liang had rushed to Baisha Town and seemed to have picked up the morning guests.

As expected, all the way until nightfall, that group of customers still did not return. After the family finished dinner, Xiaowan and Aunt Zhang stood at the entrance of the store and looked around. There were no movements on the distant road, no one would come back at all.

”Aunt, do we still count as room money?” Xiaowan asked.

”If it's related to the imperial government, then naturally, I won't accept it.” The Aunt Zhang thought for a moment, then muttered, ”Could it be that he is a prince of some western countries?”

When they slept at night, Ling Chaofeng told the Xiaowan that usually, foreign ships could not freely enter the borders of the Daqi and come to a place like the Baisha Town as they wished. There was only one possibility, and that was that the imperial government would allow them to enter the Daqi.

”And if not?” Xiaowan asked.

”If not, the first time I arrived at the port, I would have been intercepted and arrested.” Ling Chaofeng said, ”Otherwise, if anyone could just casually come in, wouldn't the world be in chaos?”

”Master, have you ever seen the sea?” Xiaowan asked, and she laughed, ”I have never even seen Baisha River before.”

Ling Chaofeng asked in surprise, ”You have never been to the pier?”

The Xiaowan smiled bitterly: ”I've never been there before. I've only been to the town the furthest.”

”Tomorrow morning, bring Little Pei with us to the dock to take a look at the big ship.” Ling Chaofeng laughed, ”Let's go check out your Baisha River, once we are done with the mountain opening, we will bring you to the coastal areas and have a look at the ocean.”

Because they were separated by Little Pei, Xiaowan was unable to burrow into Hubby's embrace happily. Ling Chaofeng guessed what she was thinking and laughed, ”Serves you right.”

The Xiaowan was not convinced and said: ”At the very least, I will have to wait until this group of guests leaves before I can send Little Pei back. He is so young, and lives in a room by himself. Even if he isn't afraid, I am afraid. I was always worried that Little Pei would roll down from the bed and burn his hands due to the candle flame. Husband, have you never been worried? ”

Ling Chaofeng was stumped, and said guiltily: ”It's my fault.”

Xiaowan laughed: ”There's still time. In the future, you have to properly love and care for our son.”

The next morning, a few people came over and took away the things in the store. After settling the bill with the store, they didn't say who they were, but Ling Chaofeng heard from the yamen that they were indeed princes from Xiluo.

Xiaowan did not know which country the Xiluo was from, nor could she imagine where they were located. The happiest thing that happened this morning was that they followed their husband and brought Little Pei along in a carriage, arriving at the Baisha River Pier together.

Da Qing waited here for them, then brought them to walk around the dock. Currently, the most eye-catching thing was that luxurious ship.

In order to let other boats pass, the big ship moved to another location. Xiaowan stood on the shore in shock, looking at the boat that was two stories high, then looked at the Baisha River which was not as wide as she had imagined. She then asked Da Qing: ”How did this boat get in?

Da Qing said: ”I've worked at the dock for more than ten years, but this is the first time I've seen such a big boat.”

At this time, a team of people rushed over. There were yamen runners, there were also foreign race people, Prefect Liang rode a horse, and the blue-eyed man also rode a horse. The official came to open a path, bringing all the servants on the dock to the side.

The Prefect Liang respectfully led the man to the dock, but the blue-eyed man only smiled and waved at Ling Chaofeng and Xiaowan.

Ling Chaofeng nodded his head in greeting. Xiaowan bowed with Little Pei in her arms as she asked softly, ”Are they heading to the capital?”
