The woman asked her, "May I ask your name, young lady, so that I can reward you handsomely someday."
"No need to remember my name. We are destined to meet each other. Besides, it doesn't require any effort on my part. It's just a side note. We are about to go back anyway." An Yan replied politely.
The woman was silent for a long time before she said, "You helped me so much, I should thank you, otherwise how can I feel comfortable?"
"It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning, no need to keep it in mind." An Yan still didn't intend to tell her real name.
"Then we'll meet again if we're lucky enough." The woman said this. She originally wanted to introduce herself, but then she changed her mind and decided not to. After all, they were just strangers and could talk about it later.
An Yan raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "I'll go outside and see if we're almost at the Sea Country." Then she walked out of the cabin and went to Li Rongsen's side. She first let the boat fly higher so that she could see more scenery and things.
Li Rongsen said to her, "We are almost there, not far ahead. I can already see heads of people, there are many people walking around."
An Yan also looked ahead and said, "What a bustling and prosperous metropolis! It's incredible. It looks so prosperous. It's really a great country."
"Is this your first time here?" Li Rongsen asked her.
An Yan nodded and said, "This is my first time here. It turns out that they are on par with us in West City."
"The sea country seems to have many small islands. Look over there, there are many ships docked at the pier." Li Rongsen pointed to a place and showed it to An Yan, thinking that this place was really interesting. It was the same as the city outside, but the people here were all dressed in ancient costumes.
But Li Rongsen had gotten used to it. Whenever he came to West City, he would change into clothes with ancient decorations, just as he did when in Rome and followed the local customs.
"Great, let's transform this boat into an ordinary fishing boat, so that it can be convenient to sail into the city." An Yan said as he waved his right hand, and the boat that was originally covered with Youyue Grass changed and became an ordinary boat.
The woman also came out of the cabin and found that the ship had changed. She said, "What happened? All those beautiful decorations are gone."
"You have to keep this secret." An Yan said to her.
"Okay." The woman nodded, and then looked ahead. She couldn't help but get excited. She said, "Oh, we have arrived at my sea country. That's great."
An Yan signaled the big ship to slowly sink into the water, and then moored to the dock. Immediately, two boatmen grabbed the thick rope of the boat and docked the boat at the shore.
The woman couldn't wait any longer. She said, "Thank you so much. I'm home now."
"It's really lively here." An Yan thought this place was very interesting. Then she discovered that the people here seemed very wealthy. They were all dressed in silk and satin, and everyone had a smile on their face.
Li Rongsen also found it interesting. He said, "Should we go into the city and take a look?"
"Come with me into the city. It's quite lively there. I'll treat you to a hearty meal at the most luxurious restaurant." The woman motioned for An Yan to get off the boat with her.
An Yan said: "Let's go into the city and take a look. There's no need to eat. There are people waiting for us at home."
"All is fine, but I'm afraid I have to leave first." The woman looked a little embarrassed.
An Yan knew what she was going to do and just said, "Just go and do your own thing, we'll just go shopping."
The woman responded, and then walked in front, taking An Yan and Li Rongsen into the city.
The city was indeed very lively, with a constant stream of people walking on the streets, inns and hotels everywhere, and various shops with many people doing business. It was really a wonderful scene.
Li Rongsen said: "I thought only West City was so lively, but it turns out it's the same here."
"The old man said that Haiguo and Xicheng are basically the same." An Yan said as she walked forward, raised her eyes and saw a clothing store. Looking from the door, she could only see heads of people, which showed that everyone was very generous, otherwise who would come to buy things.
There are all kinds of street performances in the city, including acrobatics, singing and dancing, swordplay and gunplay. There are also many lanterns in the city, which must be lit up at night.
An Yan looked around and found that there were many things to learn from.
Li Rongsen saw that An Yan was very interested, so he didn't urge her to go back. He let her browse slowly. She picked up a lamp from a stall and said, "This lamp is really beautiful."
"Girl, this lantern is only ten cents." said the stall owner with a smile.
An Yan went out without any money, so she put down the lamp and said, "Let me take a look first."
The stall owner was still smiling, not caring at all whether An Yan would buy or not, and turned around to greet other customers.
An Yan said: "The citizens here are also good, with good manners."
Li Rongsen leaned close to her ear and said, "I forgot to bring money with me."
An Yan lowered her eyes and smiled softly, saying, "I didn't bring anything valuable with me. It's also because I don't usually wear any jewelry, otherwise I could have used some as collateral."
At this time, someone shouted from not far ahead: "Come, come, come, everyone. Today, the prince invites us to have tea. Please sit down as long as there are empty seats until the seats are full. It's free, not a penny."
"Are you thirsty?" Li Rongsen asked.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Let's go and take a look. It seems like something interesting is going to happen there." An Yan said as she picked a seat in the teahouse and sat down, motioning Li Rongsen to sit next to her.
Li Rongsen looked around and found that all the seats were filled in just a short while.
This teahouse is famous here and is the most popular among the citizens. The citizens here are also interesting. They don't like to drink alcohol, but only like to drink tea. It is said that this is all due to the preference of the eldest son Ouyang Mingxi. This eldest son only likes to drink tea, which has attracted many people to follow suit.
The prince motioned for everyone to drink tea, and said, "Today is a big day. Although this time we are openly looking for a tutor for the third son, in fact we are looking for a wife for him."
"Isn't the Third Young Master a couple with that Lingxian?" someone interrupted.
"You don't know that the Third Young Master did not marry Lingxian, but ran away for several years."
"Why are you running away?"
"That woman named Lingxian is ugly." Prince Wang said as he laughed, causing everyone to laugh as well.
"I heard that they are engaged." said one of them.
Another person immediately responded, "That's right. If you didn't have an engagement, why would you run away? You had no choice but to go."
Another person said, "I heard that the beauty of that fairy is not as good as a maid from our Sea Country."
"Even so, his background is very important."
"I think your standards are too high. The woman named Lingxian is not ugly. Her facial features are quite regular."
"'Proper facial features' is an insult. If someone doesn't have regular facial features, is he still a human? He would be a monster." Young Master Wang laughed.
An Yan and Li Rongsen heard every word of these words. They didn't expect to hear such gossip here, but to be honest, Lingxian was still good-looking, just not that outstanding.
But this is not important. The most important thing is that they just talked about the third young master Ouyang Beifeng.
Listen to the prince who invited the guests continue to say: "The most beautiful woman in the city has been chosen, isn't it just choosing a wife? What's more, the eldest and second sons dote on our third son very much, and they are afraid that he will suffer a loss."
"There's one thing I don't understand. The eldest son hasn't even married yet, so why are you worrying about the third son's marriage?" asked a spectator.
