262: Duan Yu is gone just like that?

They had just visited Dao Baifeng and found her sleeping, so they didn't disturb her and went to see the little prince instead.

As they were coming out from seeing him, they heard the commotion over here and came to take a look out of curiosity.

They happened to hear Little Red's shocked words.

Curious, they gathered around. When they saw a whole block of ice inside the water vat, they all showed looks of shock.

"Eh, is this ice? Prince, where did you get such a large block of ice?" Zhao Min looked at Duan Zhengchun in surprise.

"Madam, the Prince used saltpeter to make this. I really didn't expect that besides making Gunpowder, saltpeter could actually be used to make ice."

"This is too magical," Little Red said excitedly.

"What? Making ice with saltpeter? For real?" A Li exclaimed and crowded around.

"Of course it's real. If you don't believe it, you can try it yourself." Duan Zhengchun pointed to the saltpeter on the ground and another water vat.

A Li excitedly picked up a piece of saltpeter and threw it in. Seeing this, Little Red suddenly got anxious.

"Madam, you need to break the saltpeter into pieces first."

"Ah? I didn't know. I thought I could just throw it in!" A Li looked dazed, showing an embarrassed expression.

"It's fine. Throwing it in as a whole block just makes the effect a bit slower," Duan Zhengchun explained with a smile.

Hearing Duan Zhengchun's explanation, A Li breathed a sigh of relief. She was truly afraid that something bad would happen due to her improper operation.

"That's good. I thought I had wasted a piece of saltpeter."

Soon, the water in the vat began to freeze. This magical scene immediately caused A Li and the others to show expressions of shock.

A Li looked excitedly at her masterpiece, thinking that she wouldn't have to worry about the heat in the future.

"Heavens, it's actually true. In that case, we won't have to fear the heat in the summer anymore."

Actually, with their current strength, they wouldn't sweat even in summer. However, the summer sun was quite harsh, and that dry heat still made people uncomfortable.

Now that they had ice blocks, they didn't have to worry about that anymore.

The women looked at such a novel thing, each full of curiosity. They started making ice themselves, having a great time.

Duan Zhengchun didn't disturb them. It was just some saltpeter; to him, it was nothing. If it ran out, he could just have someone buy more.

"System, I have a son now. Aren't you going to give me some rewards?"

"Ding! Rewarding the Host with one Newborn Gift Pack. Would you like to open it?"

"Open it."

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Supreme Bone, Strongest Brand Diapers, Strongest Brand Baby Bottle, Strongest Brand Breast Pump, Strongest Brand Rocking Chair, and a bottle of recovery pills, which can be used for postpartum recovery."

Listening to the System's rewards, Duan Zhengchun's expression turned from initial surprise to something quite peculiar.

Aside from the Supreme Bone which could be considered a reward, this really was a freaking Newborn Gift Pack. Diapers, baby bottle, breast pump, rocking chair—could it get any more ridiculous?

"Damn System, are you cutting corners? Aside from the Supreme Bone, at most the rest are just freebies, right?"

After waiting for a while, the System didn't answer. Duan Zhengchun's face instantly darkened.

As expected, the good stuff was skimmed off as a kickback by this thing.

Forget it, take things as they come; it's better than nothing.

He just didn't know how effective these items sent by the System were.

With a thought, a diaper appeared in Duan Zhengchun's hand. Seeing the words 'Hooligan' printed on the leak guard, his mouth twitched.

"Eh, Prince, what are you holding? It's so strange."

"And the texture is so soft; I've never seen anything like it before." Zhao Min came to Duan Zhengchun's side, looking at the diaper in his hand with surprise.

"Oh, this is called a baby diaper. With this, once the baby wears it, as long as he doesn't poop, you don't have to get up to change him at night. That way, the nights can be a bit easier." Duan Zhengchun explained with a smile.

"What? This is for my godson to wear? Will it work?" Zhao Min's surprise was mixed with doubt as she kept fiddling with the rare object in her hand.

"We'll know if it works after he wears it. As long as my son doesn't get a red bottom or a rash, he'll wear it. If a red bottom or rash appears, then he won't."

"Moreover, it's only for the night, not the day. Otherwise, it might affect my son's 'little treasure's' development."

"If a 'little sprout' results because of this, then his future wife will suffer," Duan Zhengchun said solemnly.

Zhao Min's expression turned peculiar upon hearing this, her brows furrowing slightly.

The way she looked at Duan Zhengchun became a bit strange.

When she heard the words about the 'little sprout' and the 'daughter-in-law suffering,' Zhao Min's face flushed, and she gave him a coy, reproachful glare.

"How old are you? You still talk so inappropriately."

"Don't you know your own situation? With someone like you, how could your son be lacking?" Zhao Min rolled her eyes at him.

"That's hard to say. After all, this thing has its pros and cons," Duan Zhengchun shook his head.

"Fine, fine, fine, we'll do as you say," Zhao Min said, rolling her eyes again.

Duan Zhengchun took the recovery pills and went into the room. Dao Baifeng had already woken up. Seeing Duan Zhengchun arrive, a smile appeared on her face.

"Prince, why are you here?"

"By the way, we haven't thought of a name for our son yet. Have you thought of one?"

"Hmm, indeed, I forgot about that earlier."

"Phoenix, do you have any good suggestions?" Duan Zhengchun was stunned for a moment and slapped his forehead.

He really had forgotten about this. In the original work, the son Dao Baifeng bore was Duan Yanqing's, and she gave him the name Duan Yu.

Now, this wasn't Duan Yanqing's son, but his own biological son.

Naturally, he couldn't be called Duan Yu anymore.

"How about calling him Duan Yu?" Dao Baifeng thought for a moment and gave her opinion.

As expected, hearing this name, Duan Zhengchun's mouth twitched.

He couldn't use that name; it felt weird. This was his own biological son, not someone else's.

"That name isn't good. How about calling him Duan Haoran? It signifies 'noble and upright spirit'." Duan Zhengchun thought for a moment and gave his opinion.

"Haoran? Sure, that's a good name." Dao Baifeng thought about it and nodded in agreement.

She was only giving her opinion; the final decision still rested with Duan Zhengchun.

"Here, take this first. It can help you recover, and even your figure can return to its former shape. It will also help your skin return to normal." Duan Zhengchun took out the recovery pills and gave them to Dao Baifeng.

A smile appeared on Dao Baifeng's face. She didn't stand on ceremony and took it immediately.

The recovery pill melted in her mouth. Dao Baifeng felt a warm current spread through her body. She immediately felt that her previously weak body no longer felt frail.

"Eh, it's so magical. This pill's effect is so good." Dao Baifeng looked at Duan Zhengchun in surprise.

"Here, keep this bottle. Take one a day, and you'll recover to normal very soon. You won't have to stay cooped up in your room every day." Duan Zhengchun took out a jade bottle and handed it to Dao Baifeng.

"Is this okay? My sisters will be giving birth soon too; they'll need them as well." Dao Baifeng shook her head.
