"Simon, welcome home..."

"Fleur, what's wrong with you?"

Simon took off his coat and hung it on the hook, looking at his wife with concern. He stepped forward and gently embraced Frederica in his arms, raising his hand to smooth her slightly wrinkled brows.

He asked quietly, "Did something happen while you were watching over him?"

"No, the kid played the game of knight and hero with Jean for the whole afternoon. He didn't do any pranks beyond his age. He looked very appropriate for his age. He just asked a very pointed question before that."

She lowered her head and rested her forehead on his broad shoulders. The scent of her lover surged outside her nose. Frederica's slightly confused heart was slightly comforted. She sighed and said:

"Simon, not to mention the people of Mondstadt, even the West Wind Church, how long has it been since they organized an event to worship the Temple of the Four Winds? The Temple of the Four Winds was built to express gratitude for the protection of the four winds. The last time I went in was when I passed by on a mission a few years ago. It was already in disrepair at the time. I'm afraid now..."

"Now that we understand the problem, we should correct it in the future. It's not too late now."

"You are right. The Guardian of the Four Winds means the same thing to Mond as it does to Lord Barbatos. Now that we are aware of the problem, we cannot just ignore it. Have you discussed the issue of the child with the Grand Master?"

The undisguised sound of running came into her ears. Frederica slightly broke free from Simon's arms, restrained her slightly weak appearance, took the Zephyr Sword that her lover brought back from the cabinet, and asked seriously.

Simon shook his head in amusement and said softly, "I had a meeting with the Grand Master before I came back. The main point is now very clear. We cannot take tough measures against the God of Servant Yingsai, otherwise it would be a provocation to the majesty of the God of Thunder."

"But we can't let him have too much freedom. Invite him to live in our house and take care of him during his rest time. The rest of the time, leave it to the Grand Commander and Mr. Albedo. They will find a way to make him mistakenly believe that he has won."

Simon lowered her voice and spoke out the contents of the meeting. She caught a glimpse of her obedient daughter running towards her, squatted down and caught her, gently holding Qin in her arms, her tone uncontrollably gentle.

"Did you have fun this afternoon?" Simon asked with a smile as he picked off the fox fur stuck on Qin's collar.

The two little feet dangling in the air swayed, and Qin clapped her hands and asked expectantly, "I'm so happy! But Dad, Qin is really curious about the Temple of the Four Winds. Can't you take me to see it?"

"The Four Winds Temple is being repaired. Dad will definitely take Qin to see it when it's finished. Can you wait a moment with your curiosity?"

"it is good!"

"Qin is so good."

After rubbing his daughter's face affectionately, Simon carried Qin to the living room. Looking at the attendant Yingzai who was sitting on the sofa combing his two messy tails, he greeted her warmly: "Yingzai, have dinner with us tonight. Thank you for playing with Qin. We are busy with work on weekdays, and Qin is indeed a little lonely staying at home alone."

"It's good that you know how to be grateful." As a matter of course, he accepted the thanks and invitation, and the attendant Yingzhai sneered: "Since you are grateful, I won't tell you about the 21 different women's scents on you."

Innocent Qin blinked, "What does this mean?"

Simon explained meaningfully, "It means that the work of West Wind Church is even busier today because unknown people walked out of the church openly. When I returned, I was surrounded by nuns and priests. It was difficult for me to calm their restlessness."

"I didn't do anything sneaky, so why can't I walk out of the church openly? Tsk~ You West Wind Church are too naive. It's just a blasphemy, but Liyue didn't react at all."

"Customs vary from country to country. Xumi still believes in the departed gods."

As a well-informed adventurer, Simon was quite familiar with the customs and traditions of the Seven Kingdoms of Teyvat. He joked, "If you say something bad about the Little King of Lucky Grass there, I'm afraid the House of Lords won't even react."

The attendant god Yingzhai nodded after finding the key: "I understand. If I go to Xumi in the future, I will definitely help the little King of Auspicious Grass to overthrow the hateful Church."

"..."

Simon didn't know whether the samurai Sakurasai really thought so or was joking. He remained silent and didn't respond, putting the piano on a specially raised chair.

The maid hired by the family was bringing the meal to the table.

Frederica came to interrupt the awkward atmosphere: "It's time to eat."

"Tsk~ I was thinking of inviting you to join Mondstadt. The current situation in Xumi must be that the master is weak and the ministers are strong, otherwise they would not allow the Church to be so arrogant and even ignore the reputation of the new god."

Yingsai, the attendant god who appeared at the table in the blink of an eye, swallowed a chicken leg angrily, as if he was treating it as a religious deity, and said angrily: "As a follower of the gods, how can I tolerate their blasphemous behavior?"

Simon kindly reminded: "You are a follower of Thundergod."

The attendant god Yingzhai frowned, "Don't you know that the seven rulers are closely related? What's wrong with me temporarily renting myself to the little auspicious grass king? Don't worry about the general's disapproval, it's just a matter that can be solved by throwing a tantrum."

"The close relationship between the seven rulers has been going on for five hundred years. Ever since the dark beast tide swept through Teyvat and the seven gods were replaced by four others, the connection between the seven rulers is no longer as strong as before."

Simon kindly explained, reaching out and loosening his collar.

"Even the three first-generation gods have lost their previous contact. Lord Barbatos is still missing as usual. It is probably as recorded in history that he only appears at the most critical moment in Mondstadt. Rock God Morax will only appear at the annual ceremony of summoning the gods. In other cases, it is also difficult to find the gods. Only the whereabouts of your Inazuma's Thunder God Baal are clear. He stays in the castle tower and has not left Inazuma Castle for hundreds of years."

The attendant god Yingsai was unconvinced: "Maybe they were secretly gathering without you knowing?"

"perhaps……"

"Hiss, why do I suddenly feel a little hot? Mondstadt is under the protection of Lord Barbatos, so the temperature shouldn't change so suddenly."

His legs under the table couldn't help shaking in an attempt to relieve his discomfort. Simon looked down at the dishes in his hands and suddenly felt something was wrong.

A blush brighter than cinnabar appeared on both cheeks, and layers of mist filled Frederica's bright eyes. Her legs were involuntarily crossed together.

She gritted her teeth and looked at the attendant god Sakurasai.

"Although Mond's dishes are a bit sweet, they are still within my acceptable range and taste very good."

As if he had sensed two condemning gazes falling on him, the samurai god Sakurasai blinked his eyes innocently.

"I can't help it. Knight games require props, such as wooden swords, armor, and the like. Healing potions are essential. I don't have any empty potion bottles to play with, and I don't want to waste potions, so I have to trouble you to help me digest them."

Frederica hissed, "You... at such a young age, how can you bring this kind of medicine?"

"You evil adults, please stop your evil thoughts. What I gave you is a legitimate potion that will only make your body produce more happiness and love...ah~ I almost forgot that you humans are creatures that are easily affected by your body."

The attendant god Yingsai sighed regretfully, raised his fox tail high, and pinched out a key from it.

"Here is the key to your room. Take it and go upstairs without any worries. I am not a bad person and I will definitely not disturb you and your wife. Qin is in my care, you can rest assured."

The white-haired fox kindly reminded, "Remember to bring some food with you to avoid being exhausted. After all, Father Simon has worked all day. Did you have a good lunch? That's why adults like you are so worrying. Even filling your stomach is a problem for children."
