Chapter 233 Going to Beg for Money

The Xue family was honored, as Qin He was a prized disciple of the immortal sect.

Qin He's listless mood improved considerably. She had never felt so embarrassed since transmigrating, being struck by lightning. Anyone who didn't know better would think she had bad intentions. She checked her spiritual energy and found it was depleted.

However, Qin He wasn't afraid; she had a system.

Qin Tan and Qin Di have been studying fate lately, and they often flip through books and study esoteric arts when they have free time. After all, Qin Bi has been reincarnated and has forgotten how to practice magic.

Qin Xun was even more impressive; he asked a friend to tell someone's fortune, which made the young master laugh uncontrollably.

Qin Yan came to visit Qin He and said to her, "You don't know, Qin Lang even told the heir of Marquis Anyuan's affairs, saying he was possessed by an evil spirit. What does Qin Lang know? He's definitely just trying to fool people."

Qin He leaned against the bed, her hair falling loose, looking pitiful. She chuckled softly, "The magic of the immortal sects is still the most powerful."

"I wish I were a disciple of a celestial sect." The young ladies of the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion were extremely envious. Look at Qin He, who was injured this time but was fortunate to have her sect, which sent her pills time and time again.

Without a master or mentor, it would be a long time before Qin He could recover.

An ordinary person might lose their cultivation, so Qin He is truly fortunate.

"There are many prominent families in the capital, and everyone knows them. Qin Lang shouldn't be fooling people." Qin He scoffed, "If he likes metaphysics, I can ask my sect to introduce him to an immortal. How can he set up a stall to fool people?"

Qin He's younger sister pouted, "They don't need your help."

Qin Han didn't show any dissatisfaction, but just smiled and said, "Qin Lang has become Sister Qin Bi's little follower."

Qin He disliked anyone who had a good relationship with Qin Bi; they were just parasites. Qin He didn't even take Qin Bi seriously. If it weren't for family rules, she would have really wanted to break ties with Qin Bi.

It's worth it for a man; she didn't want Prince He anymore.

Thinking this, Fu Bao ran in: "Mommy, Mommy, it's so hot today! I want to eat ice cream, and I also want to eat freshly picked melons. Watermelon is so delicious, I want to eat watermelon."

Qin He hesitated: "In previous years, the watermelons were always provided by the Duke of Yan's mansion."

"I want to go to the Duke of Yan's mansion!" Fu Bao shouted.

Qin He didn't stop her, and Fu Bao's maids and servants followed Fu Bao out of the mansion. The Yan State Duke's Mansion had helped her raise her child, watching her grow up from a young age, so it wasn't unreasonable for her to eat something from the Yan State Duke's Mansion.

Qin Yan and the others watched with envy. Qin Cui said, "Sister Qin He is so lucky. She has everything she needs, and even when she is injured, her sect sends her medicine. She is a true prodigy."

Qin He smiled faintly, a hint of smugness in her heart.

She should stay away from Qin Bi from now on, and that would be the end of it. Qin He didn't want to mention being struck by lightning at all. She wasn't trying to steal credit; she had already summoned rain, and the farmland was raining, so why shouldn't she go and check on the situation?

Perhaps it was the rain she summoned earlier. Rain is scarce everywhere; is it easy to summon a rain? Since she summoned it herself, she couldn't just give it away to anyone else.

The Hou family sisters left after they had played enough, and soon Fu Bao returned, the little girl pouting.

"What's wrong?" Qin He asked. "Didn't I give you anything to eat?"

"They only gave me a slice of watermelon, and it was just a regular watermelon!" Fu Bao complained, throwing a tantrum. "Who wants to eat a regular watermelon? I want a spirit watermelon! If there's anything good, I'll definitely give it to Rong Yang."

Qin He's face fell: "Just like his mother, he likes to compete with others."

Fu Bao shouted, "I hate Rong Yang!"

Qin He was at her wits' end. Rong Yang was a child of the He family, and she disliked her too, but she had no way to drive Rong Yang away from the Duke of Yan's mansion. Rong Yang had stolen all of her Fu Bao's good fortune and luck.

"Isn't Prince He in the manor?" Qin He asked the maid.

"He's not here," the maid replied. Qin He knew that Prince He wasn't here; otherwise, how could the Duke of Yan's mansion have only given Fu Bao an ordinary spirit melon to send her away? These people were only mistreating Fu Bao behind Prince He's back.

The common watermelons were grown on her own estate, so Qin He sent guards to pick some from the estate.

When Prince He returned to the Duke of Yan's mansion, he heard that Fu Bao had come by and guessed that she was looking to steal something again. Prince He gave the guard the two spirit melons he had brought back from the Immortal Sect.

"Send it to the two young princes," said Prince He.

There were sons of his own, and sons of the Rong heir, so Rong Jun wouldn't raise his sons for nothing. Rong Yang knew he was a child of the He family, but he had been raised by the Rong heir since childhood, and his heart was with the Rong royal family, so he could only be coaxed back slowly.

Rong Yang adored his younger brother.

The guard took the spirit melon and left. Rong Yang was feeling hot and wanted to eat some melon, so he brought her two freshly picked spirit melons. The little guy happily went over to take them and hugged the spirit melons to cool off.

Rong Shizi was shrewd. He looked at He Yan's guards and said, "Someone has gone to the Duke of Yan's mansion to beg for money again?"

The guards kept their faces tense. Prince Rong chuckled. It seemed so. Qin He must have been thinking of the Duke of Yan's mansion when she was feeling hot or cold and wanted to eat something good. Tch, with him around, Fu Bao wouldn't even be able to think about grabbing anything.

Prince Rong held his youngest son in one arm, touched the spirit melon, and found it icy cold. He thought it would definitely cool him down. Prince Rong then gave his youngest son to Rong Yang, who was flattered and carefully held her younger brother.

"I'll go wake your mother up to eat melon," said Prince Rong. "Keep an eye on your younger brother."

"Okay, okay." Rong Yang hugged her younger brother.

Prince Rong was still worried, so he quickly went to the bedroom to wake Qin Bi, who was taking a nap.

Qin Bi opened her eyes, and Prince Rong said, "There's a spirit melon to eat, don't sleep."

Summer is hot, and spirit melons are even more expensive. Qin Bi could tell from Rong Shizi's expression that they were sent by the Duke of Yan's mansion, and that Rong Shizi meant that if they didn't eat them, they would be wasting their time.

Are we not going to eat it and leave it for Qin He and Fu Bao? Aren't we afraid they'll choke to death?

"Where's the little one?" Qin Bi got out of bed.

“Rong Yang is holding him,” said Prince Rong.

Qin Bi panicked and hurriedly walked outside, saying, "Rong Yang is still young, so don't worry."

Prince Rong then added, "Rong Yang is more reliable than you."

Qin Bi: "..."

When the two arrived in the courtyard, Rong Yang hugged his younger brother under the tree, showing him great affection. He usually didn't let Rong Yang hold him, afraid that his little brother would fall because he was too small and unsteady on his feet. Now that Rong Yang was letting him hold him, he couldn't wait to hold him to his heart's content.

Rong Yang sat on a small stool, obediently holding her younger brother. The little one knew that she was small and that it would be easy for her to fall if she held her brother.

Qin Bi took the little dumpling, and the guard took a spirit melon to wash it. The crisp melon was cut open, revealing red flesh that looked refreshing. Prince Rong ate a piece, and left the rest for Qin Bi and the child.

Spirit melons are extremely rare, and even immortal sects are reluctant to sell them.

Children are hard to raise when they are young, so Prince Rong dared not be careless. He took great care of Rong Yang and his youngest son. When Prince He sent him food, Prince Rong did not refuse it.

Prince He just bought some spirit melons from the immortal sect. He'll eat them in a couple of days, then he'll go back again.

Prince Rong tapped the table as he pondered, his cold, sharp eyes softening as he glanced at his wife and children.
