Jing Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "You are still young. You should take advantage of this opportunity to have another son and train him well. Maybe he will be able to take on this position in the future."

"You! Brat! Are you talking like a human being? Ever since your mother left, your father has secretly sworn that he will never touch another woman again!" Ye Fenglan said angrily.

"I really feel sorry for the concubines in your harem. They have become widows at such a young age. No wonder your harem is so cold and deserted, with no concubines fighting over your affections. It turns out they have lost hope.

Otherwise, you can send them to a nunnery and let them burn incense and pray for the people of Dragon Soul Country every day. They will be of some use instead of being wasted there!" Jing Chen said angrily.

"You! You're making me so mad! You bastard!" Ye Fenglan's face turned pale and blue, his hands trembled with anger, and he pointed at Jing Chen, but he doted on his son and couldn't bear to hit him.

Jing Chen pretended not to see it.

Ye Fenglan stood up, shook his sleeves, turned around and was about to leave. After taking two steps, he looked back at Jing Chen who was still sitting there motionless as a mountain. He had no intention of asking him to stay. He felt even more upset. He snorted coldly, opened the door angrily and walked out.

An Dehai, who was outside the door, was startled when he saw the door suddenly opened. Then he saw the emperor's face turned ashen and he immediately fell silent. He thought that the emperor was probably angry about the third prince again. He was used to it and followed the emperor out with a slightly hunched back.

Jing Chen looked at the emperor who was leaving, curled the corners of his mouth, and his mood seemed to become relaxed all of a sudden.

Xujia Village

"Qibao, your uncle Chunsheng and the carpenters in the village have made all the things. Go and see if there is anything that needs to be modified?" The old man came to knock on Qibao's door early in the morning.

Wang said unhappily, "Old man, why are you so anxious? Can't you let Qibao sleep a little longer? The things won't run away if you leave them there."

Qibao had actually woken up before his grandfather called him. After hearing his grandmother scolding his grandfather, he immediately opened the door.

"Grandma, I'm awake!" Qibao said, holding Wang's arm.

Wang immediately put on a smile and said, "Qibao! Grandma specially asked the kitchen to make a bowl of minced meat and egg custard this morning. Eat it while it's hot after you wash up!"

Qibao nodded with a smile.

Wang glared at the old man and left.

The old man touched the back of his head awkwardly and said, "Qibao, I hope Grandpa didn't disturb your sleep. I was just so happy and wanted to tell you this good news."

Qibao smiled and said, "Grandpa, I was already awake before you came, so you didn't wake me up."

The old man said, "That's good. Wash your face first. I'll wait for you in the main hall."

Shippo nodded.

At this time, Fuqiu had already boiled the hot water. Qibao simply washed up, changed his clothes, and went to the front hall.

The old man was already sitting there waiting for her. The Xu family had also eaten early, and Zhang and Li also went back to their parents' home together.

When Wang saw Qibao coming in, she told Chunlan to go to the kitchen and bring over the egg custard that was heating in the pot.

"Grandpa, I'll go with you after dinner!" Qibao said.

The old man said, "Okay, you eat first, I'm not in a hurry."

After a while, Chunlan brought over a tray. On it was a bowl of egg custard and some side dishes, enough for Qibao to eat his fill.

After the meal, Qibao stood up. The old man quickly held up a palm-sized purple clay teapot and said, "Qibao, let's go and take a look. They are all made according to your drawings. I think they are pretty good."

Qibao nodded and followed the old man out the door. Yaya and Zhier also happily followed.

Several people came to the village chief's house, and several men were standing at the door, talking about something.

When they saw the old man coming, they all greeted him.

Xu Chunsheng said, "Grandpa, the product is ready. I'll take you to see it. If there's anything wrong, tell me and we'll make some changes."

The old man nodded and agreed.

A few people went around from the front of the house to an open space behind it. Before they arrived, they saw a lot of big things placed on the ground.

The slides are all made of solid wood and look very heavy, but this is also a good thing, as they will not easily tip over, which greatly improves the safety factor for children.

On one side are several small wooden ladders with railings, and on top is a small platform surrounded by wooden boards on all sides to prevent children from falling from the front while playing. On the other side is a slide.

Qibao touched it with his hand and found it was polished very smoothly. There was a hole as thick as an adult's arm at each corner of the base. When the time comes, he can use a wooden nail of similar thickness to nail it into the ground to fix it. This will also be safer.

Qibao nodded in satisfaction.

Yaya asked curiously, "Miss, is this the slide you mentioned?"

Qibao smiled and nodded, "Yaya, do you want to go up and try it out and see if it's fun?"

Yaya's eyes lit up and she nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Qibao took Yaya's hand, asked her to climb up the wooden ladder, and then taught her how to play.

Yaya did as she was told. At first, she was sitting a little high from the ground and was a little scared, but when she slid down the slide, she laughed with joy.

"Miss, this is so fun. It just slides down! So fast!" Yaya shouted excitedly.

Zhier, who was standing by, yelled, "Sister Qibao, can I play for a bit?"

Shippo smiled and nodded.
