The beautiful hand-embroidery, with patterns ranging from traditional Chinese designs to ancient patterns of the Flower Vine tribe, combined the two to create an unexpectedly beautiful effect. Even Qin Changqing and Lan Sinian, both of whom have a straight aesthetic, were struck by the eye-opening beauty.
After Qin Changqing looked through them one by one, he suddenly had an idea. He thought for a while and finally said to Luo Yuhuan, "I'd like to ask them to help make a few sets of clothes, too. Is that okay?"
"Of course no problem. What kind do you want to do?" Luo Yuhuan asked curiously.
Qin Changqing thought of Lan Sinian's gorgeous and complicated dresses, and suddenly felt like designing a few for him himself, so he told Luo Yuhuan about his idea.
When Lan Sinian heard him say he wanted to make clothes for him, his heart, which had softened recently due to the kiss and the baby, was deeply moved. However, he quickly remembered that Qin Changqing had been in a bad mood recently, and asked worriedly, "Will it be too much of a burden?"
"No, it won't take much time." When Qin Changqing thought of Lan Sinian and Qin Xu, the biological father and son who had been separated for many years, he especially wanted to design a few sets of parent-child outfits for them. He didn't know if they would look like father and son when wearing them.
Speaking of which, he'd previously felt the two of them looked increasingly alike. At the time, he'd thought it was an illusion, but now, looking back, it wasn't. They truly were looking more and more like father and son. It wasn't just their facial features, but also that inscrutable aura and presence. Lan Sinian, though he could be quite talkative, only spoke to him. To others, his aura was powerful and steady, like the deep ocean. Qin Xu, at such a young age, had already begun to inherit this aspect of his.
Blood relationship is really a magical thing, Qin Changqing thought.
"But I'm still worried..."
"Shut up, if I say yes, then it's okay." Qin Changqing is now becoming more and more authoritative at home.
His Majesty the Emperor then shut up silently. He felt deeply that he was not a strong husband, but there was a smile in his eyes. He still preferred to see his dear so energetic.
Luo Yuhuan quickly helped Qin Changqing invite a professional designer. When the other party learned that he was going to design several sets of casual clothes for the emperor of the empire, he suddenly felt a sense of trepidation. However, perhaps because Qin Changqing's temperament was too calm, he gradually calmed down and listened attentively to his ideas.
Qin Changqing told him some of his ideas, presumably about making clothes for his family. The more he talked, the more ideas he came up with. Eventually, it wasn't just for Lan Sinian and Qin Xu, but also for him and his unborn child. Thinking about that scene, when the whole family went out, all wearing parent-child outfits, it would be quite a beautiful scene.
The designer carefully wrote down Qin Changqing's requirements and ideas, and said that he would send the design draft to him once it was finished, and then left first.
Qin Changqing was in a good mood. He looked at the various embroidery works in the embroidery workshop and went to the porcelain kiln.
Chinese porcelain, renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship, is also immensely popular within the Empire. Despite some alterations to suit the aesthetics of the Imperial public, the vast majority of these pieces retain their classical aesthetic. Handcrafted by master craftsmen, these ornamental pieces are cherished by collectors, and even the nobility are proud to own Chinese porcelain. This is largely due to a genuine love for these artifacts, but also partly due to the collaborative efforts of Qin Changqing, Empress of the Empire, and Lan Sinian and Tang Qian.
Throughout the visit, Qin Changqing discovered that whether it was the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop or the masters and workers in the porcelain kiln, most of them worked extremely hard because they knew that the things they handled were of great significance to the future development of the earth. While he was deeply moved, his mood was also affected by their high work enthusiasm, which made him feel that the decision he made at the time was really worthwhile.
Luo Yuhuan had originally planned to see them off after leaving the factory, but Qin Changqing, knowing he was also very busy, declined and also sent Hu Zhan away. With Lan Sinian by his side, his safety was absolutely guaranteed.
"Honey, do you have something to tell me?" Lan Sinian took him to a deserted spot under the shade of a tree, grabbed his hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it, teasing him with a smile, "Are you trying to whisper some sweet nothings to me?"
"Well, no, I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes." Qin Changqing said as his saliva flowed out of his mouth, especially when they passed by a sweet potato stall just now, he almost couldn't move his feet.
"Then let's go back and buy some?" Lan Sinian had learned a lot of knowledge from the Chinese Internet before, but that was mainly for fun. It was only recently that he began to frantically make up for all kinds of knowledge on Earth, so he actually knew what roasted sweet potatoes were.
"No, let's go to the mountain and grill it ourselves." Her Majesty the Queen made a strange request.
Lan Sinian blinked, a look of bewilderment on his handsome face that didn't match his temperament. Why did he have to go to the mountain to grill by himself?
Although the request was strange, Her Majesty the Queen was the most powerful now, and Lan Sinian was reluctant to refute it, so he suggested that he go buy some sweet potatoes first, but this request was also rejected by Her Majesty the Queen.
"There are some on the mountain. You'll know when you go there."
Lan Sinian, an emperor of the empire, had no idea why there were sweet potatoes on the mountain, but since his queen said so, he believed it without a doubt.
So the two of them took a flying vehicle to the mountain, found a flat ground and laid a mat, and Qin Changqing sat on the mat to give orders.
"See that piece of land over there? They used to grow sweet potatoes there. Now they've all been dug up this season, but I think there must be some left. Look around."
His Majesty the Emperor, who was under command, looked at the large piece of soft soil that had been turned over and fell into deep silence.
But the Queen, who was in charge of the household, did not give him time to remain silent and ordered, "Go quickly."
Lan Sinian turned around and met his smiling eyes, his heart skipped a beat and he covered his chest with his hands. Well, in order to make his dear smile, he would pretend to be entertaining her with colorful clothes!
His Majesty the Emperor stepped on the soft soil like a hero, and at the same time transformed into eight tentacles and began to "plow" the soil, vowing to dig out a piece of sweet potato that had been dug out for his loved one!
Qin Changqing watched with great interest, and even picked up a stick and directed: "This side, don't miss this side, otherwise you will have to turn back later."
His Majesty the Emperor's eight tentacles are feared by everyone in the empire, and are even praised as the "Hands of God" bestowed by the gods. Now, using them to turn over the soil to find sweet potatoes, probably only Qin Changqing could think of it. If the people of the empire knew about this, they would definitely cry.
However, after searching for a long time, the Emperor finally found a large sweet potato that had been missed. He was so happy that he held it up and shouted to him, "Honey, I found it. Can I roast it for you now?"
"Well, one is not enough. Find another one and we'll eat together later." Qin Changqing sat cross-legged, supporting his face with his elbows on his legs, and answered with a smile.
The Emperor had no choice but to continue digging the soil. He turned a large area of land upside down and finally found about five sweet potatoes of different sizes. He happily took them back and, as Qin Changqing requested, went to the woods to find some dry branches to make a fire and roast the sweet potatoes.
Lansnian had strong survival skills in the wild and quickly started a fire. The sweet potatoes he had just found were buried under the fire, and he only needed to turn them over from time to time.
Qin Changqing looked at the burning fire, but his eyes seemed to see through the flames and see his youth.
That was the first year they entered high school. One day, Ah Hua insisted on dragging him over the wall to skip class. Qin Changqing thought he had something to do, but later he found out that he was dragging him to roast sweet potatoes in the wild.
Qin Changqing, who was in a hurry to review, was so angry that he almost fought with him, but Qin Hua hugged him around the waist and kissed him without thinking.
That was his first kiss with Ah Hua. No matter how smart Qin Hua was, at fifteen or sixteen, he was still impatient and kissed her without any rules, like a big dog, nuzzling his face but unable to find a way in.
Qin Changqing's face turned red immediately, and he pushed him away in embarrassment and anger.
Both young men blushed. Qin Changqing was not good at speaking. Even though he had feelings for Ah Hua in his heart, he didn't know what to say. But Qin Hua was eager to express his loyalty to him. He held up the sweet potato that he had roasted until it was black and said, "Qingqing, I like you. Let's be together. Be my wife. I know you are shy and embarrassed to say it. If you agree, then eat this sweet potato of mine and you will be my wife from now on. I will give you everything and listen to you in everything."
This man was so shameless that he peeled off the black shell of the roasted sweet potato while talking, and then rubbed it on his lips without saying anything, as if he would force it into his mouth if he didn't agree!
Qin Changqing was already very embarrassed, and after being treated like this by him, he was so angry that he laughed. He opened his mouth to scold him, but before he opened his lips and could make a sound, the sweet potato was stuffed into his mouth, filling his mouth with sweetness.
Ah Hua was laughing beside him, very proudly. He laughed and said, "You eat it, you eat it. Qingqing, you will be my wife from now on. A real man should stick to his words. You can never go back on your word!"
Qin Changqing was angry and ashamed, and finally pinned him down and beat him up.
He could hardly remember the taste of the sweet potato at that time. He only remembered that their first kiss and first love were accompanied by the smell of roasted sweet potato. Because throughout their high school years, roasted sweet potato was their Valentine's Day chocolate, birthday cake, and Chinese New Year red envelopes... The sweet taste at that time gradually changed during the long wait. It was not only the sweetness at the beginning, but also slightly sour and astringent. But it was always hidden in his heart and never disappeared.
"Honey, these are the sweet potatoes that your husband baked for you. Tell me, don't you think your husband loves you to death?" Lan Sinian took the baked sweet potatoes out of the fire and peeled off the shell skillfully, revealing the golden flesh inside. At the same time, a fresh and sweet smell wafted into the air. Lan Sinian raised his eyebrows, thinking he knew why his honey insisted that he bake sweet potatoes, and he was very proud of himself that he could actually bake such a sweet food.
As he spoke, he handed the sweet potato flesh to Qin Changqing. After Qin Changqing tasted it, he smiled and teased her, "My beauty, this is the first time I made food by myself. If you eat my food, you will be mine from now on."
Qin Changqing: "..."
Qin Changqing ate almost all of the roasted sweet potatoes. Lan Sinian also tasted some and found them very sweet. He decided to bring the sweet potatoes to the Empire, and from then on, he would eat his own roasted sweet potatoes every day!
Qin Changqing saw through his thoughts and felt like he'd probably never be able to get rid of roasted sweet potatoes again. He couldn't help but sigh. This guy always wanted to give him everything he had whenever he had something good, regardless of whether he'd get tired of it or not.
That night after coming down from the mountain, Hanhai also returned from Country M and brought them a piece of news, a piece of news that surprised them both very much.
"I saw a man there, who seemed to be your Majesty's second brother..."
