But no matter how much he tried, his body seemed to be stuck to the ground and he couldn't move at all.
"Martina, this is the tailor and embroiderer I told the Queen about. She is also Sunny's aunt.
"I have something else to do here, can you take them in for me first?
"Tell the Queen for me. I'll be in soon."
"Okay, I'm happy to help you."
Mrs. Ye couldn't understand the conversation between Madam Lu and Martina at all, and felt like a fool standing by.
It was not until Qingtian tugged at the corner of her clothes that she came to her senses and hurriedly followed him in.
"Sunny, why doesn't Madam Lu come in? How can we talk to Westerners if she's not here?"
"Second Aunt, don't be afraid. Master Lu will come over after he arranges the matter with the Westerner."
Although she said that, Mrs. Ye Er was still visibly nervous.
Originally, having Madam Lu by her side made her feel a little safe.
But now that she was about to meet the Queen, Madam Lu actually left first.
The further she followed Martina inside, the more nervous Ye Ersao became, and she felt like she was about to faint.
Qingtian felt that the hand holding hers was getting colder and colder, her palms were full of cold sweat, and even began to tremble slightly. She knew that Ye Ersao was probably very nervous at this time.
She took the initiative to call out to Martina.
"Madam Martina, could you please help us find a room to rest first?
“I want to wait for Mr. Lu to arrive before going with her to meet the Queen.
"Because I'm just a child, I don't know those complicated words and can't help the Queen communicate smoothly with my aunt."
"Oh, my sweetheart, of course.
"Your request will be met immediately."
Martina agreed readily, and then said exaggeratedly: "Sunny, you are such a genius.
"You are now speaking our language better and better."
"It's all thanks to Mr. Lu's good teaching." Qingtian said modestly.
"Lu is indeed a good teacher, but you also need to be capable yourself."
Martina said as she led the two into a room.
“You guys take a rest here first, I’ll go see what problem Lu has encountered.
When Martina came out, everything on Madam Lu's side had been basically figured out.
This person turned out to be one of the scammers who used fake gold to buy goods everywhere in Tianjin.
After Captain Zhang returned, he spent a lot of effort planning to catch these people.
Several main culprits were arrested, but a few small fry escaped after hearing the news.
This person is one of them.
He did not speak the official language of the Great Qi, and his country was very remote and small, so he had some language barriers with other people.
So after escaping, he didn't know where to go. He accidentally came to the capital. The little money he had was quickly spent, and he was so hungry that he almost didn't have the strength to walk.
The reason why he walked into the dumpling restaurant just now was because he saw an old man in front of him asking for food.
After Yan Fei asked the other party if he mind, he put together the leftover dumplings and side dishes from several tables of guests and packed them up for the beggar to take away.
When the guests saw this, as long as the beggar was not particularly dirty, they would know to abide by the rules and not enter the house.
The guests were actually quite happy to see this sort of thing.
At least it means that the restaurant will not use other people’s leftover dumplings to entertain new customers.
This scene made the Westerner's eyes widen. He never thought that besides spending money to buy things, there was such a way to beg for food.
But he was dressed neatly in Western aristocratic clothes, and as soon as he entered the store, Yan Fei treated him as a distinguished guest. He suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Lu, are you ready?" Martina asked loudly, "Qingtian and the embroiderer are still waiting for you."
"I'll be there right away." Lu handed the accomplice directly to a minor official from the Honglu Temple.
The clerk's mouth was almost crooked from smiling.
Who would have thought that when I was bored in the afternoon and was sitting in the lobby chatting for a while, I would suddenly get a credit!
He asked in disbelief, "Madam Lu, are you really giving me this credit for nothing?"
Madam Lu couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
“I’m not an official from your Honglu Temple. I was invited here to help with the reception because I’m acquainted with Queen Beatrice.
"Even if this credit is given to me, what use will it be to me?"
The clerk thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
He scratched the back of his head and said, "Thank you very much, Madam Lu."
Amid the clerk's thanks, Mrs. Lu urged Martina to go in quickly, meet up with Ye Ersao and Qingtian, and then go in together to see Queen Beatrice.
Before entering, Madam Lu specifically reminded Ye Ersao again: "Don't be nervous when you go in later, and don't kneel down and kowtow. Just watch me and learn from me."
"Okay, I remember it!" Madam Lu had said this several times in the car, and Mrs. Ye could recite it word for word.
But when she entered the house and really saw Queen Beatrice wearing the golden crown, her knees became weak out of habit and she wanted to kneel down and kowtow.
Fortunately, she finally gritted her teeth and held back, followed Madam Lu to bow and greet, and then they could sit down.
Then Queen Beatrice and Madam Lu chatted in Western dialect for a long time.
Qingtian tried hard to help Ye Ersao translate using the Western language she had just learned.
Although almost every sentence was translated fragmentarily, I could still roughly guess what the two people were talking about. They were talking about making clothes.
