The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

"Mr. Duan looks much thinner and more energetic. I'm sure he'll be a handsome young man in the future."

Zhilan on the side echoed, Duan Chengkang felt embarrassed by the praise, pretending to be reserved and said "it's okay, it's okay".

Chu Qinling didn't understand what his mother and Aunt Zhilan meant by that. It was obvious that the chubby Kang Ge looked better. People just wanted to be chubby.

At this time, neither Concubine Ning nor Duan Chengkang realized that Chu Qinling's aesthetic taste had deviated greatly without them realizing it.

After Duan Chengkang and Chu Qinling finished their breakfast, Duan Chengkang mysteriously ordered someone to bring up his box.

Chu Qinling had heard him say that he had packed a box before, and thought it was just a box the size of a box, but he didn't expect it to be half his height.

Duan Chengkang proudly showed him what he had brought him. Chu Qinling walked around the box and asked curiously:

"Brother Kang, you didn't bring the brother you mentioned here, did you?"

This can hold a child.

"how is this possible?"

Duan Chengkang laughed out loud, and Chu Qinling also laughed.

Of course it was a joke. Chu Qinling thought he was quite humorous.

Chu Qinling: Hehehe

Xuan Ge'er: No, hehe

Duan Chengkang signaled the palace servants to come forward and open the box, and Chu Qinling came forward curiously.

He picked up something that looked like a clamp and looked at it curiously.

"what is this?"

Duan Chengkang was searching with his head down, and when he heard this, he looked up and took a look.

"Don't worry about that for now. There's still a lot here. Put it aside for now. I'll find the next one for you."

Duan Chengkang took them out one by one, and the palace servants following him put them one by one in different boxes.

Duan Chengkang took out all the things and turned around

Hmm? How come everything is summarized for him?

But that’s okay, it saves him from having to clean it up again.

Duan Chengkang first gave Chu Qinling a set of the Eight Blessings dolls he bought outside, as well as other miscellaneous clay figurines.

Chu Qinling couldn't let go of the conch-shaped ceramic figurine and the complete set of Eight Blessings dolls. He ordered people to put them in the study.

There are also small gadgets picked up on the roadside. Although they are not very exquisite, they are just for fun.

"Brother Kang, what is this?"

"what about this?"

"and this"

Duan Chengkang introduced them one by one to Chu Qinling. At the end, looking at the huge pile of things, Chu Qinling was already extremely curious.

"What on earth is this?"

"Hey, I'm sure you'll like this."

"Help me take these leftovers outside."

Duan Chengkang kept the secret and pulled Chu Qinling outside.

Duan Chengkang asked Chu Qinling to look carefully and said that he could transform a dragon into something for him.

Chu Qinling watched Duan Chengkang pinch and release it, and a vivid snow dragon appeared before his eyes.

"Wow!"

Chu Qinling took a closer look and even the dragon's claws and horns were clearly visible.

"Here, come on."

Duan Chengkang handed the thing in his hand to him. Chu Qinling was eager to try it. He picked one up, but it was a little loose because he didn't use enough force.

"You need to use more strength and hold it tightly so it won't leak."

As he spoke, Duan Chengkang took a tiger mold from the side and printed one as a demonstration.

Chu Qinling tried it a second time, and this time a complete snow dragon came out.

The palace maids nearby stretched their necks to look forward out of curiosity, and exclaimed in surprise for a moment.

"Wow, what is this? A snow tiger appeared."

"Young Master Duan is truly amazing. What is this object? I've never seen it before."

"Yes, yes, look at that dragon, it's almost the same as the one carved by the royal craftsman, but this is snow."

“I didn’t expect snow to be able to be molded into so many shapes.”

Duan Chengkang watched Chu Qinling pick up rows of small dragons and knew that he would like this.

"Hahahaha, I asked the carpenter in the mansion to make this for you. Do you like it?"

Chu Qinling's little face turned red with excitement, and she looked at Duan Chengkang with sparkling eyes.

"I like it, Kang Ge. I can play in the snow too."

"Hey, that's right, you were the first one I thought of."

Chu Qinling nodded vigorously, took the things in his hand and ran to the main hall.

Concubine Ning was handling palace affairs when she saw her beloved son running in.

"What's wrong? What did you play? Your face is so red."

Chu Qinling excitedly placed the contents of the mold carefully on the table next to him.

"Mother, look!"

Concubine Ning saw a snow-white dragon appear before her eyes.

"T-Is this a snow dragon?"

Concubine Ning woke up in shock

"Ling'er, did you do this?"

Chu Qinling nodded obediently. Concubine Ning looked at the thing in his hand and asked:

"What is this?"

"Brother Kang calls this a mold. It can be used to make different things."

Concubine Ning became curious and looked at the snow dragon that was almost transformed. She took Ling'er and went out.

It's a nice day today. The sun is out, shining on the snow, making it glow with golden light.

Duan Chengkang was now fighting with the palace maids, and some of them were vying to have the young master carve a snow cat, a snow mandarin duck, and so on for them.

Duan Chengkang was so busy that he didn't notice what was behind him. But the palace maids saw him and quickly knelt down to pay their respects.

Concubine Ning was not annoyed. She looked at what Kang Ge'er was holding and walked forward with great interest.

……

The Emperor of Chu was in a good mood today and the weather was clear.

At present, the Nanyang disaster victims outside the city have been properly resettled, and guards inside the city are supervising the clearing of snow.

Seeing that the situation was so good and that he had just cleaned out a bunch of unpleasant guys, the Emperor of Chu was naturally happy.

After the court session, he went straight to Concubine Ning's palace. He was in a very good mood and naturally wanted to come and see his beloved concubine and son.

When the Emperor of Chu arrived, he started to doubt whether he had come to the wrong place as soon as he entered the door.

I saw rows of snow tigers on the doorstep.

Snow tiger!

The King of Chu raised his foot and accidentally broke one of them, so he stepped very carefully.

Xiao Degui, who was following behind him, also lifted his skirt with some difficulty and stepped inside.

When he walked inside, the Emperor of Chu was a little surprised.

On the railings and steps, there were different animals and birds made of snow. There were even two in the parrot cage hanging under the veranda.

"Help! Help!"

Xiao Ba was hanging upside down in the cage, screaming miserably.

Xiao Ba looked at the two snow parrots in the cage that looked like him and kept screaming.

"There's a ghost, help! There's a ghost, help!"

The Emperor of Chu took a look around and walked inside when a palace servant was about to report.

The Emperor of Chu waved his hand, signaling for silence.

"Xiao Ba, stop yelling, or I'll turn you into Xue Xiao Ba."

Xiao Ba was so frightened that his voice became much softer, but he still shouted persistently: "Help! Help!"

A voice came from far away

"Why are you yelling, Xiao Ba? I'm telling you, even if you scream your throat out today, no one will come to save you."

Duan Chengkang ran out holding a clamp, and when he saw someone outside the door, he stopped suddenly at the door.

Chu Qinling, who was following behind, hadn't reacted yet and bumped into his back, and they both almost fell to the ground.

"Ouch my nose, Kang Ge, why did you stop so suddenly? Aren't you going to deal with Xiao Ba?"

"Oh? Who wants to deal with Xiao Ba?"
