process!The first batch of noodles were hung in the yard at noon the next day, swaying gently in the wind, like curtains.The summer wind was both warm and gentle, the sun also diligent, in a day's wor...“This is my wife and children. We met and got married when we were traveling to the Golden Buddha Kingdom. This time they came to our Heavenly Martial Realm to pay their respects and return to their ancestral home. In the future, if there are any inconveniences caused by them, please bear with them.”

Several officials were so shocked that they were speechless, struggling to contain themselves before opening their mouths.

What's wrong with this Li family

Their family isn't known for being particular about background when choosing a daughter-in-law, is it

Although all the women I brought home were from scholarly or official families, they were ultimately from humble backgrounds and had nothing to do with wealth and nobility.

Now, how is this so unique

He brought back eight foreign ambassadors after a trip abroad, not to mention that he also married a queen!

This is the Queen, the monarch of a nation!

She actually became the daughter-in-law who cooks and serves meals for the Li family!

This is simply unbearable. All envy and jealousy are gone, there's no catching up!

Finally, it was the Minister of Rites who spoke up. With a smile, he bowed and replied, “Minister Li is too kind. Her Majesty the Queen is our esteemed guest, and naturally we must treat her well. It is only right for Her Majesty to return home. If Her Majesty has any further requests in the future, or if your household requires assistance from us, please do not hesitate to ask.”

"Thank you, Lord Shangshu." Jiaxi thanked him once more.

After some more pleasantries, Li Laoer signaled Jia Yin and Wan'er to come forward and take Queen Ai Bei and the child away first.

As for Jiaxi and Ji'an, they would also assist in receiving the envoys of seven other countries and handling the tribute from each nation.

Li's carriage promptly arrived and took the women, then quickly departed.

The common people were dumbfounded from start to finish, only calming down when the carriage disappeared from sight.

"Did I hear that right The Golden Buddha Queen is actually the granddaughter-in-law of the Li family!"

"You heard right, it's the granddaughter-in-law of the Li family, married to the grandson who went out to sea!"

"This is insane, the Li family actually married the queen!"

"I told you the Li family was different, they always do things in ways you can't predict."

"No matter how baffling it is, I'm just thrilled about this! Our Tianwu boys are amazing, they even brought back the Queen!"

"Indeed, this is the queen. In their country, everyone kneels and worships her as a god. Here, she is simply Tianwu's daughter-in-law, respecting Tianwu's elders!"

"Yes, yes, that child is the Crown Prince of Jin Buddha Nation, that is, the prince, but also a great-grandson of the Li family."

"In the future, when this child ascends to the throne as king, then wouldn't that mean the golden Buddha also possesses half of our Heavenly Martial might"

"Haha, we from Tianwu didn't spend a single soldier, and we took half of Jinfo Country! This deal is really profitable!"

Regardless of their psychology, the people of the dockyard were all caught up in a strange excitement because of this event.

As if he had gotten the better end of the deal...

But soon they forgot all about it.

As envoys from various countries brought tribute goods ashore in succession.

Perhaps to demonstrate the wealth of their own country and the sincerity of their tribute, envoys from various nations instructed their attendants to open the boxes.

Thus, jewels of all colors, coral, pearls, rare mother-of-pearl, and so on, were all dazzlingly displayed before everyone.

Not only that, but from the farthest place from Tianwu called Yingji Country, they even transported a large black musical instrument and several square shaped bells of different sizes. Their outer shells were inlaid with gold and jewels, making them both beautiful and extremely luxurious.

Last to appear were animals of all colors, including elephants with long trunks, giraffes with long legs and necks, golden lions, and leopards covered in colorful spots...

The common people of Xindu had always lived inland. They had never seen anything like this before, and they were all amazed, their jaws dropping in astonishment. They forgot to discuss anything else.

Finally, the envoys happily followed the officials from the Honglu Temple to their lodgings.

Upon their first arrival in Tianwu, they were amazed and envious of its vast expanse and abundance of resources.

At this moment, the things they brought also made the people of Tianwu envious and amazed.

This is what reciprocity is all about!

They were on their way to see the Heavenly Martial Emperor. As guests, they felt obligated to bring gifts, but they also didn't want to be treated rudely or looked down upon...

Without mentioning how bustling the pier was, let's just say Jia Yin and Wan'er brought Ai Bei to the carriage and hurried toward Earl's Mansion.

As queen, Ai Bei was naturally composed, intelligent, and elegant. However, both at sea and in Quanzhou, she had heard her husband and his companions chat endlessly on numerous occasions. In Quanzhou, her in-laws constantly mentioned this young niece of the county lord, and she understood very clearly how important this niece was.

If the sister-in-law doesn't like her, her husband may not abandon her, but it will be much harder for her to get along with her in-laws afterward.

She thought for a moment, then gestured for her son to bow to his younger aunt.

Even if she, as an outsider, is not liked, the child is always a member of the Li family's bloodline.

Wenwen looked a bit darker than the average child from Tianwu, after all, she had grown up in such a hot country. But it wasn't the kind of dark complexion that Jia Yin imagined, rather a healthy wheatish skin tone.

The little child, with a shy smile, bowed respectfully, and called "aunt" very clearly, showing that they had practiced many times.

Jia Yin seemed to see Si Ge when he was a little boy, many years ago.

At that time, Sixth Brother and Seventh Brother hadn't acknowledged their ancestors yet, and the family was busy. She almost grew up with Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother.

The fourth brother was mischievous, teasing cats and dogs, even uncovering the bottom of the big goose. The jokes he caused were simply too numerous to count.

Even once, she was almost forgotten on the stone board and almost became barbeque...

But as long as there was something delicious, even just a roasted bird egg, Fourth Brother would treat it like a precious treasure. He'd hold it up to her, carefully put it in her mouth, and only then would he run away with a giggling smile wiping his nose...

In the blink of an eye, Fourth Brother's son has grown up so much.

"Are you Wenwen Can Auntie give you a hug" Jia Yin blushed, opening her arms wide.

Wenwen blushed and didn't look at her mother. Instinctively, she rushed into her aunt's arms.

"Auntie! Xingxing said that your snacks are especially delicious!" Wenwen hugged her aunt's neck and asked about what she had been thinking about all along.

Ai Bei was helpless. After all, she was just a child. At this moment, she didn't know how to speak nicely with her aunt and still remembered wanting to eat.

But Wan'er couldn't stop laughing, "Oh my, this is truly our family child. Such a foodie! Xingxing and the others, probably thought about Aunt's baked snacks even when they were in Quanzhou. Look at Wenwen, he was taught by them!"

Jia Yin also smiled and hugged her little nephew tightly, quickly promising, "Don't worry, aunt will make any kind of snack you want, I guarantee you'll eat your fill. The oven at home is already on, in a while we'll watch the oven and eat. Want as much as you like!"

Ai Bei let out a quiet sigh of relief, feeling immensely grateful. This younger sister-in-law wasn't difficult to get along with, she could even say that she was kind and warmhearted. It was no wonder her husband valued her so much and always reassured her not to worry...

When the sun began to set, Kaji and Kasan finally finished their busy day. As they returned to Earl's Mansion with their family, they smelled a sweet fragrance all over the courtyard upon entering.

Both of them couldn't help but smile.

Jiaxi was the first to exclaim, "Little sister baked a cake!"

"JIA An also nodded in agreement, replying, “Sister's craftsmanship is still the best. Even the master from Baiyun and my mother couldn't bake it with this flavor.”

Wenwen changed into a cotton dress and pants, grabbed two snacks in her hand, and ran out of the courtyard, happy as a little deer.

Three white little foxes, with fish bones in their mouths, followed behind, acting as responsible babysitters.

Today's update is here, sorry for being late back after visiting family! understands, Hui'er, you can rest assured, these days Aunt will figure out a good place for you." 。Take good care of your health and don't overthink things. 。" OK, Aunt " 。Hui Niang felt at ease an...
