Chapter 279 Even the melons here are in short supply
Lady Su looked at Qin He with surprise.
This is a world where good fortune and luck are paramount. Some people are indeed fortunate enough to bring good luck to their families. Qin He's statement wasn't rash, but it still needed to be justified.
However, it is said that Qin He is protected by the Heavenly Dao, so it is not surprising that she has a high level of good fortune.
Lady Su was surprised because if the farmland in this desolate place was good fortune brought by Qin He, then Prince Qin should have mentioned it in his words to help Qin He gain fame.
Qin Yan didn't mention it!
"You also have a piece of land in the wilderness?" Lady Su asked tentatively.
I've never heard of Qin He owning a piece of land.
Looking out into the distance, one could see that all the families living on a plot of land were there. For example, the Rong family was picking and carrying melons. Rong Cui was happy to see this, and the whole family was beaming with joy because of the harvest and Rong Cui's recovery.
Then there's the Jiang family; Jiang Xu's maternal grandparents and their entire family came to help.
They're practically family.
The largest of these reclaimed farmlands belonged to the Qin Yanhou Mansion, which included farmland belonging to the Qin Crown Prince, the third and fourth branches of the Qin family, the Rongwang Mansion, and He Zu of the Yanguo Duke Mansion.
"I don't see anyone from the Xue Prince's residence!" Lady Su asked in confusion.
"I don't have any land." Qin He couldn't lie, so she smiled, squatted down, picked up a small watermelon, and handed it to Qin Yan, saying, "If I came to this wilderness to farm, this whole area would have a bumper harvest."
Qin He's certainty surprised Lady Su even more.
With such a boastful tone, is it really because of Qin He's good fortune that the fields in this desolate land have grown? Otherwise, who would be so certain? But why hasn't anyone mentioned Qin He, whether it's the young master Qin or the third branch of the Qin family?
"My sister Qin He has always been blessed." Qin Yan handed the melon to Qin Cui, then turned and said, "If it weren't for my sister Qin He's high fortune, the Marquis's mansion wouldn't be able to grow anything in this desolate land, let alone grow a spirit melon."
"What's the meaning of this?" Lady Su was utterly puzzled.
After moving the melons for only a short while, Qin He left, leaving the work to Madam Su and the others. She then wandered over to Rong Yan's melon patch and vaguely remarked that Rong Yan had high fortune and was blessed.
"What do you mean by that?" Rong Cui had a cold sweat on her forehead, but felt very comfortable. Seeing Qin He go to Jiang Xu's melon field, she asked Rong Yan in a low voice, "Isn't it thanks to the Qin family's third branch's 'Abundant Harvest Cloud'?"
"Ignore her." Rong Yan waved his hand: "She's trying to steal the credit again."
Upon hearing this, the Rong family members all disliked Qin He. Who was this person who came here and immediately started talking about the good fortune brought by her blessings? They heard that she was the young lady of the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion, so she should be bringing good fortune to the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion.
They are from the Rong family, how could they possibly benefit from her influence?
I don't know her normally, and I never have the chance to benefit from her good fortune!
Qin He told Jiang Xu's maternal grandparents that she had a high level of good fortune and that it was all thanks to her good luck. Jiang Xu's maternal grandparents were completely confused and thought that Qin He had come to ask for favors.
Jiang Xu said, "Ignore it."
Qin He didn't want to move the melons; working under the scorching sun was too hard. Since transmigrating, Qin He had been very good at taking care of herself, so she had no interest in working in the fields. With a smile, she went to the lady's place.
The ladies and young women of each household wanted to buy melons, but they couldn't get their hands on any.
One lady was sweating profusely: "I should have bought it when they said it would cost three low-level monster crystals per watermelon. I hesitated, and now ordinary watermelons are in high demand."
"I want to eat some melon seeds." A young girl shook the lady's sleeve.
"I'll buy it for you," the lady said.
"Do you want to buy melons?" Qin He, who ran a shop, was naturally shrewd and struck up a conversation with people: "I am a young lady from the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion. If you want to buy melons, I'll go and tell them for you." "Buy, buy, buy..." the lady and young lady hurriedly replied.
Upon hearing this, the other ladies and young women all gathered around Qin He, surrounding her. Qin He inquired about the number of purchases and how many she wanted, and then went to find Qin Yan amidst everyone's compliments.
Qin Yan said, "Both the Minister and the Vice Minister have bought them."
Qin He went to relay the message again, saying she was even busier than Qin Yan.
Qin Bi arrived in the desolate land in the late afternoon. Rong Jun was keeping an eye on things in the palace, and he was also taking care of the children. Eunuch Fu came with Qin Bi. Everyone bought melons, but the little prince had come to the desolate land without making any moves. The Emperor of Great Yan was getting impatient.
As soon as Eunuch Fu arrived, he went to find Lin Yao and Rong Yang. Qin Bi went to the field, where most of the melons had already been sold and the spirit melons had been harvested. The remaining watermelons in the field were not yet ripe.
"We can wait two more days to pick them; they should be ripe by then," an aide said.
Qin Bi nodded, and Qin Lang ran over to repeat what Luo Bi said.
Then, Qin Yan also arrived.
"Big cousin," Qin Bi asked, "how's your melon harvest going?"
"We've almost finished harvesting." Qin Yan called Qin Bi to go with him to their melon patch.
Qin Bi hesitated for a moment, then followed Qin Yan over. The young master Su and the others cut a watermelon, and Qin Yan gave a piece to Qin Bi, then sent someone to call over the young master Su's wife and the others to come and eat the watermelon.
Qin Yan took a piece of melon and handed it to Qin He: "Sister Qin He, this one is good."
The sisters were friendly, so no one paid much attention. Madam Su just thought Qin He was popular. Qin He, who considered herself a young lady from a noble family, was very good at getting along with people and gave the watermelon to Madam Su.
Lady Su took a bite of the melon: "Delicious."
"Is it delicious?" Qin He then mentioned her fortune value: "The wilderness is barren. If it weren't for my high fortune value, crops wouldn't grow in this spiritually deficient soil."
Qin Bi narrowed her eyes and glanced over: "You mean, the Marquis of Good Fortune, whom you brought, only managed to cultivate a piece of land in this desolate place?"
"Am I wrong?" Qin He didn't think there was anything wrong with her at all, and said with a serious face: "I am the one with the highest fortune in the entire Marquis's mansion. Without me, crops would definitely not grow in the wilderness."
Qin Yan, while eating melon, said, "That's right, having a lucky person in the family can bring blessings to everyone."
The young master of the Su family and the other young masters of the Su family smiled, not knowing whose good fortune it was. This matter was mysterious and unpredictable. The young master's wife would not say much about the affairs of the Qin Yan Marquis's family. She just took a small bite of the melon and ate it. It was so sweet!
How could the Crown Prince's wife possibly do any work? She's just here to taste the melons and share in the joy of the harvest.
Qin Yan frowned: "Qin Yan, let's eat the melon and go back. We have plenty of manpower."
Qin Yan went through a lot of trouble competing with Qin Lang and the others for the Five Grains Abundance Cloud to finally cultivate a piece of land. What does this have to do with Qin He's good fortune? It's too far-fetched to try and force a connection.
"Our Marquis's mansion has a lot of face." Qin He didn't leave: "Besides, with me here, the melons are in high demand and sell very well! Big cousin, you have to reward me with something."
Qin He said this half-jokingly, implying that she deserved credit.
Of course, you can take it as a joke, depending on whether you believe in mysticism or not.
"If that's the case, why don't you cultivate farmland in the wilderness?" Qin Bi scoffed, reminding Qin He, "If you sell melons, you won't get any crystals."
