The wife travels through time and space to honor her husband: The heirless prince raises a child

Chapter 261 Jiang Xu also went to find his ancestors.

Rong Yan was stunned at first, then his face lit up with surprise.

"I...I...our ancestors really did appear!" Rong Yan's voice trembled with excitement, his eyes wide open. "Father, the healing elixir, the healing elixir given to you by our ancestors..."

Rong Cui was both surprised and delighted, feeling the long-lost love from her elders, and couldn't help but wipe away tears of joy.

Rong Yan beckoned to his half-brother, and several teenagers, dazed, helped Rong Cui leave. When they returned home, Rong Cui was overjoyed and cried again, her face already deathly pale.

Rong Yan quickly poured out a pill and gave it to Rong Cui. After thinking for a moment, he gave her another one: "Our ancestors gave us several bottles, Father, there's no need to be stingy with the pills."

Rong Cui swallowed two pills at once, and her complexion gradually improved.

Rong Yan then told his father about the fortune telling. Rong Cui was surprised and took out a bottle of pills for Rong Yan: "Consider this a thank-you gift. These are low-grade pills. I checked, there are two pills in one bottle. This thank-you gift is not stingy."

"Okay, okay." Rong Yan took it: "Father, please rest well, I'll go right away."

Exhausted, Rong Cui lay down and closed his eyes to rest. His body was broken and his lifespan was shortened. If he hadn't taken two pills, Rong Cui definitely wouldn't have been able to hold on. Thinking of his ancestors' concern for him, Rong Cui felt aggrieved like a child again.

Rong Yan stayed a while longer before leaving. Before leaving, he instructed his aunt and illegitimate son to take good care of Rong Cui. It was already afternoon when Rong Yan hurriedly went to a famous pastry shop, bought two packs of pastries, and returned to the desolate land.

Rong Yan walked briskly, grinning from ear to ear. Qin Xun asked him, "What's making you so happy?"

Rong Yan said, "The Crown Princess's fortune-telling is simply divine."

"What do you mean?" Qin Tan asked as he walked out of the field. He was supposed to be a county magistrate, but now Qin Tan was just a farmer, stuck in the field. His melon patch was about half an acre in size.

A few spirit melon vines have grown and produced spirit melons, though not many, but Qin Tan is very content.

Rong Yan wanted to tell everyone about it. In a few words, he told them about Qin Bi's fortune telling for him, from why he had his fortune told to following Qin Bi's advice to pray to his ancestors. Then, his ancestors very kindly gave him crystals and pills.

"This is too unbelievable!" Qin Tan wanted to believe it, but it was rare to see a fortune teller be this accurate.

This world is indeed a place for cultivating immortality, but it is difficult to cultivate immortality. Even cultivators find it hard to summon wind and rain, let alone tell fortunes. Qin Tan asked again, and well, Rong Yan's ancestors really did appear.

Qin Tan and Qin Yan exchanged a glance, secretly wanting to have their fortunes told by Qin Bi as well.

"No." Qin Lang went to Qin Bi: "I need to have my sister tell my fortune."

The idea of ​​receiving demon beast crystals and pills just for talking to one's ancestors is too tempting. But this is a cultivation world where luck and fortune are paramount, and people can't stand such mystical talk.

Everyone was seeking fortune-telling from Qin Bi, and even the usually composed First Strategist was astonished. Was it really that mysterious?!
Rong Yan gave a bottle of pills to Qin Bi, who then handed it to Lin Yao. Lin Yao opened the bottle and glanced at it: "Low-grade pills for restoring physical constitution. The effects are quite good. There are two."

Qin Bi happily put it away, and Qin Yan said, "Give me a fortune reading."

Qin Bi: "..."

Qin Bi was speechless: "The reason why it works for Rong Yan to ask his ancestors is because his ancestors were doing well in the semi-immortal realm and had achieved great success in cultivation. It's not that anyone can just ask their ancestors and have them send them this and that."

Rong Yan exclaimed in surprise: "My ancestor is cultivating immortality over there?"

Qin Bi fell silent. Rong Yan understood. "Alright, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed."

Qin Yan and Qin Tan also gave up. Qin Lang pestered Qin Bi for a long time but Qin Bi ignored him. Jiang Xu couldn't help but ask, "Where is my ancestor?"

Qin Bi was speechless. Why did everyone keep asking about the ancestral side? It was just a casual matter. Qin Bi glanced at Jiang Xu, a thin, blue-robed cultivator walking through the mountains. He looked injured, but his expression was relatively relaxed. "Why don't you give it a try?" Qin Bi waved her hand.

Jiang Xu went to try it, and complained to his ancestors. His ancestors threw him a bag of demon beast crystals, about fifty in total, because they thought he was useless. They gave it to him in a bad mood and it hit Jiang Xu on the head.

Even so, Jiang Xu's hands trembled with excitement.

Jiang Xu counted out twenty demon beast crystals and gave them to Madam Jiang: "Mother, send them to my maternal grandparents' family."

Madam Jiang was surprised and puzzled: "Where did this come from?"

Jiang Xu's eyes flickered, and he hesitated before saying, "I don't know which ancestor gave it to me."

Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Xu in surprise, thinking he was talking nonsense in broad daylight. Jiang Xu had no choice but to tell her about the fortune telling. Madam Jiang didn't care about anything else and immediately sent money to her family for emergency relief.

Jiang Xu was born to a second wife. After hesitating for a long time, he went to see his father.

After waking up from his afternoon nap, Grandpa Jiang was enjoying the cool air and drinking tea in the living room when he saw Jiang Xu come in. His gaze paused for a moment: "What happened to your forehead? Did you get into a fight outside? Why don't you learn some cultivation from your brother?"

Jiang Xu carefully chose his words: "It was done by the ancestors of the Jiang family."

Master Jiang, holding his teacup, said: "..."

Jiang Xu dared not lie, so he put the cloth bag on the table, opened it, and showed it to Old Master Jiang. Old Master Jiang glanced at it, and his gaze immediately sharpened as he scrutinized Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu was intimidated by this old man, so he covered his forehead and said, "Father knows that my maternal grandfather was injured and his lifespan was shortened, but my mother is only a second wife and cannot produce demon beast crystals. I..."

Grandpa Jiang stared at Jiang Xu, who said, "I had someone do a divination and then recited a few words to my ancestors."

Grandpa Jiang took a moment to realize that finding the ancestors meant going to the ancestral hall. Just as he was about to get angry, Jiang Xu immediately said, "The ancestors were probably annoyed by my nagging and thought I was being a nuisance, so they smashed a bag of demon beast crystals on me."

Grandpa Jiang: "??????"

"Nonsense!" Old Master Jiang was furious; they were trying to fool him.

Jiang Xu knew that his grandfather wouldn't believe him, and their father-son relationship wasn't great, so he quickly said, "My ancestor was thin and tall, and gave off an arrogant and aloof feeling..."

Grandpa Jiang stood up in surprise: "That's your grandfather..."

Jiang Xu shut his mouth, slightly surprised. Old Master Jiang sat back down and gave Jiang Xu a deep look. He had to admit that this illegitimate son had really been hit by his arrogant father with a demon beast crystal.

Although it was unbelievable, Grandpa Jiang knew that Jiang Xu couldn't make up what his ancestors looked like.

He must have seen it. Knowing his father's temper, if a junior dared to bother him, he would surely smash it. So, Old Master Jiang set his sights on the demon beast crystals and decided to take them all.

No, he was afraid that his father, with his temper, would beat him in his dreams and complain that he was useless.

Taking out half of the demon beast crystals from the cloth bag, which was fifteen in total, Old Master Jiang said, "Five demon beast crystals are a thank-you gift, and the other ten are yours. They were given to me by my father, so I have to keep half of them."

Jiang Xu was overjoyed. The old man had agreed to give the demon beast crystal to his maternal grandfather's family.
