She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Chapter 490 The Girls' Enthusiasm

In fact, Yu Yuanzheng had been thinking about this problem since she heard what the two mothers-in-law said.

It started since they came here, so it must be caused by the environment here, or the food they eat.

But the specific reason needs to be investigated in detail to be determined.

“Your Majesty, this issue needs to be analyzed from multiple perspectives.

The only reasons I can think of are that the living environment on this island is really problematic, and that they ate something they shouldn't have.

We'll stay for two days, and I'll investigate further." Yu Yuanzheng answered truthfully.

"Ah."

The group returned to where they had eaten.

The two maids, Lixiang and Taoxiang, had already prepared beds for them.

After rocking on the sea for half a month, I can finally sleep on land. For those who go to sea for the first time, that is the greatest enjoyment.

After the sailors finished their meal, Shangguan Ziqi began to organize everyone to replenish supplies on the ship.

Replace all their water.

Then I went to each restaurant to order some dishes to take with me before leaving.

It's not like I want their things for nothing.

Shangguan Ziqi took some goods from the ship to exchange with them.

A few exquisite bowls amazed the girls.

They had never seen anything so beautiful.

When Shangguanziqi took out a few embroidered handkerchiefs and gave them to them, the girls couldn't take their eyes off them.

There was only linen on the island, so many of the clothes they wore were not dyed.

In order to make their clothes more beautiful, some girls picked flowers or leaves of some plants, crushed them, and used the juice to dye the cloth.

But if you want beautiful colors, you can't do that.

So they all loved what Shangguan Ziqi brought out.

They were willing to exchange anything they had at home with the sailors.

As a result, I got the supplies I wanted without having to give out much.

It was not until dinner time that Shangguan Ziqi finished loading all the things onto the ship.

In addition to water and firewood, there is also food.

Just wait until you leave to pick your vegetables.

At night, Shangguan Ziqi returned to the room where the couple lived with a hint of excitement.

"Is there something happy? You look very happy." Yu Yuanzheng asked.

"Hey, why does the room smell so good?" Shangguan Ziqi did not answer Yu Yuanzheng's question, but sniffed hard twice.

"Oh, it's the smell of burning oil lamps, which are unique to the island."

"What do they use for lamp oil?" Shangguan Ziqi asked curiously.

"I used fish oil."

“I was wondering why it smelled so good.

In the afternoon we transported supplies onto the boat, and the girls on the island were so welcoming.

The soldiers were a little overwhelmed by their enthusiasm, and some jokes were made."

"Oh, I guess those old guys have never seen so many men in their lives, let alone the young ones. Those girls must have been instructed by their elders to be so enthusiastic."

"Yes, indeed. There are only about ninety men on the island, and that includes the elderly.

When the girls saw so many foreign soldiers coming, they all came forward to help.

When they were moving things, a few girls deliberately came too close, causing the young soldiers to blush and get flustered. They wanted to stop them, but it was difficult to push them away.

We had no choice but to let them do what they wanted. As a result, the girls carried more water than the soldiers throughout the entire afternoon. They all actively brought out their own buckets to help fill and carry the water, each one stronger than the other.

Yu Yuanzheng couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this. "It seems our arrival has actually added a lot of fun and excitement to the island. Alas, they have no men to rely on, so they have to rely on themselves for everything. They're all very strong, aren't they?"

Shangguan Ziqi nodded, with a hint of teasing in his eyes: "That's right, some girls even dressed up specially, wearing dyed clothes and inserting some wild flowers in their hair. It seems that they are quite thoughtful.

However, their enthusiasm also made our soldiers a little overwhelmed.

A young man was being pulled by a girl's arm, and in his nervousness, he nearly dropped the bucket in his hand, spilling water all over the floor, causing everyone to burst into laughter. Another girl, perhaps fifteen or sixteen, killed a chicken from her home, cooked it, and brought it to one of the soldiers, forcing him to eat it. If he refused, she would cry.

"These girls rarely see men on weekdays, so they are naturally excited when they see young and strong soldiers like you. However, you also have to be careful and not cause any misunderstandings." Yu Yuanzheng reminded with a smile.

Shangguan Ziqi nodded: "Don't worry, I have already told them that everyone is here to carry out a mission and must not lose their composure.

However, these girls did help us a lot. They helped carry things and prepare supplies, which saved us a lot of effort."

"The women on this island are hardworking and capable. The fertile fields we saw on the way here give you an idea of ​​how much labor it takes to grow them.

But there are few men, so they have to rely on themselves for their livelihood.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why they are so enthusiastic towards outsiders like us, perhaps to win the favor of the soldiers and, ideally, to bring them home."

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.

The soldiers' camp was not far away.

Shangguan Ziqi walked to the window, opened it and looked out. He saw several girls surrounding a few sailors, seemingly talking and laughing about something.

The sailors seemed a little embarrassed, but they couldn't refuse the girls' kindness, so they could only smile awkwardly.

Yu Yuanzheng also walked to the window. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems our soldiers won't have a peaceful night."

Shangguan Ziqi shook his head helplessly. "Let them be, as long as nothing goes wrong. However, we still have to continue investigating the situation on the island tomorrow, so we can't delay too long."

Yu Yuanzheng nodded: "Yes, the environment and food problems on the island have not been fully investigated yet, so we have to hurry."

As they were talking, they heard a gentle knock on the door. Yu Yuanzheng walked over and opened the door, only to see Lixiang and Taoxiang standing outside, holding a plate of fresh fruit.

"Princess, this was sent by Granny Cui. Your Highness, please try it. This is a fruit unique to the island. They named it Spring Eye Fruit." Lixiang said with a smile.

Yu Yuanzheng took the fruit and said with a smile, "They are quite polite."

Tao Xiang blinked and lowered her voice, "Princess, you don't know how enthusiastic those girls are. Just now, one girl secretly asked me if the soldiers on our ship could let her take one home."

Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh. It seemed like the girls on this island were really tempted.

"Okay, you should go to bed early too. We still have things to do tomorrow." Yu Yuanzheng said to the two maids.

Lixiang and Taoxiang responded and retreated.

After they left, Shangguan Ziqi closed the door and said to Yu Yuanzheng with a smile, "It seems we have to leave here early, otherwise these girls may not be able to control their thoughts."

"Yeah, tomorrow we'll walk around the island and see if we can find out what the problem is."

The two smiled at each other, each with their own plans in mind.
