The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Cheng Feng said: "Uncle, at this time you still remember to be a good person in front of Cheng Youning."

Wan Lianxing said, "I must be a respected grandfather in Cheng Youning's heart. Let me say this in advance. The rude behavior yesterday was all done by you. It was not my instruction."

Cheng Feng sighed and said, "Don't worry. In Cheng Youning's heart, you are still the perfect little grandfather who loves, pampers and indulges him. Now I am the only bad guy. His grandparents can scold me if they want."

Wan Lianxing said, "This has made my brother and sister-in-law so angry that they can't wait to meet you and punish you. They wrote a letter to scold you. The meaning of the letter is very clear. You are no different from an unforgivable villain. It's no different from stirring up a hornet's nest to provoke Cheng Youning. This child is only five years old, and he knows how to retaliate against you at such a young age. He will be a big deal when he grows up. We can't afford to provoke him."

Shang Xi gritted her teeth in anger, "He just didn't need much education. He's already complaining before his teeth have even grown. Wait until I get back and see how I teach him a lesson... Is my son badly injured?"

The person escorting Cheng Youning said, "There are a few marks on his skin and his throat is swollen. The doctor prescribed some medicine and he should be well soon."

Shang Xi felt sorry for Cheng Youning. She was so upset that she couldn't stand or sit still. "Why don't I go back to see Cheng Youning? This child is very tender. He must have suffered a lot of skin loss. Also, his throat must be swollen and congested because of crying so much. It must hurt even to drink water now."

Wan Lianxing said, "Don't go back now to get scolded. While the children are away, quickly do the task I gave you."

Shang Xi said, "You have given me so many things to do, which one should I do first?" At this time, Shang Xi's mind was full of Cheng Youning, so she had no mind to do anything.

Wan Lianxing said: "Let me study the factory first."

Huang Chenming, who was beside Wan Lianxing, said, "My Lord, if you are not in a hurry, build the temple first."

Wan Lianxing was speechless. "Listen to Mingming, we should do it on two fronts, build the temple and the ironworks at the same time, so that neither will be delayed."

Shang Xi was so shocked that her jaw dropped. "You can take my life now."

Wan Lianxing said: "You have the ability. As the saying goes, those who are capable will do more work. I will leave these two tasks to you. I think highly of you."

Shang Xi said: "You can also leave it to me, but I have to say something ugly in advance."

"You say it and I listen."

Shang Xi said: "You have to give me some time to rest."

"You just want to take a break?"

Shang Xi nodded and said, "Yes, I can't keep doing this endlessly."

Wan Lianxing said, "You can take a break. I approve it. Do you have any other requests?"

Shang Xi shook her head and said, "I don't have any requirements at the moment. I'll go back and figure out how to do this job. If I encounter any problems, I'll come to my uncle."

As expected, Shang Xi pondered until late at night, but was unable to put pen to paper. The next morning, Shang Xi came to find Huang Chenming, who was then having morning tea with Wan Lianxing.

"Uncle, you only asked me to draw the blueprint of the temple. It's not difficult to draw, but you have to tell me clearly how many halls and courtyards you want to build the temple, otherwise I can't start."

Wan Lianxing said: "I don't care about this matter, you two can talk about it."

Huang Chenming said: "How about I take you to have a look."

Shang Xi said, "That's exactly what I meant. No matter how much you tell me, it's not as good as us going to the scene to investigate. I'll take two people with me to measure it with a ruler. I have to know the situation clearly."

Huang Chenming stood up and said, "Let's go then." He looked at Wan Lianxing.

Wan Lianxing raised the tea bowl in his hand to his mouth and then put it down. He was very resistant and said, "Don't look at me. Whoever wants to go can go. I won't go."

Huang Chenming said, "My Lord, let's go together. If the people see you go to the temple, there will definitely be many pilgrims in the future."

Wan Lianxing said: "I am not a monk. No matter how many incense sticks there are, I won't spend a penny. What does it have to do with me? Besides, I don't believe in anything."

Huang Chenming said: "You can't say that. If the Marquis builds a place for everyone to burn incense and worship Buddha, everyone will think that the Marquis is compassionate, kind-hearted, and has good intentions."

"I don't seek fame. If you want to donate gold and silver, just bring the gold and silver. I can give the money, but I won't go with you."

Huang Chenming said: "My Lord, how can I represent you? You don't know how great you are in the hearts of the people."

Wan Lianxing said: "How great can I be? I haven't done anything for them."

Huang Chenming said: "You are like a god in their hearts."

As he was speaking, a servant came in and said, "My Lord, there is a group of women outside the gate, and they keep saying they want to see you, my Lord."

"Are you sure it's a woman? Or a group of women?"

"My Lord, they are definitely women. I can still tell the difference between men and women. They are clamoring to see you, my Lord, and we can't chase them away."

Wan Lianxing tapped his palms with his fan. "Women? A group of women, but I don't know any women."

The messenger said, "My Lord, you should go and take a look. They are really a group of women. You can't beat them or scold them. They won't leave no matter what you say. They are just whining at the door... Alas!"

Wan Lianxing saw that the person who came to deliver the message had a headache on his face. He guessed that this group of women must be difficult to deal with, "You can't drive them away. If I leave, will they still be able to leave? You might as well just say I'm not here."

"My lord, we tried this method, but it didn't work. They said it doesn't matter if you're not here, they can wait until you come back." As the man spoke, his face fell.

"Did you tell me what you wanted from me?"

"No, but they looked so, oh! I really can't say anything!"

The man sighed and looked worried. Seeing this, Wan Lianxing could no longer be a coward. "I haven't offended the woman. I'll go with you to take a look."

Huang Chenming said, "My Lord, I think it's best for you not to go out. I'll go check on you."

Wan Lianxing said: "They can't eat me. Aren't you going to the dilapidated temple? Go ahead, we will do our own things." He would rather stay at home and send a group of women away than follow Huang Chenming to any temple.

Huang Chenming said: "I'll go with you to take a look."

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "How can I be eaten by a group of women right in front of my house? Besides, I have never been involved in any romantic affairs. If you want to follow me, go ahead."

Shang Xi looked at Cheng Feng and said, "Let's follow along. We'll go directly to the temple that Chen Ming mentioned."

Cheng Feng had no objection. He had nothing to do and it would be the same wherever he went, so they followed Wan Lianxing out.

When they arrived at the gate, it was quite quiet. Shang Xi said, "I don't think they are here to cause trouble. If they were, they would be noisy and swearing. But they don't look like that."
