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

Chapter 373 Qin Han's Scheme

Fu Bao looked up, worriedly asking, "Will Rong Yang try to take it from me?"

Rong Yang is so annoying.

Qin He's expression was filled with resentment: "What can Rong Yang use to compete with you? His mother is disliked by Prince He, so naturally your Uncle He doesn't like Rong Yang either. What's yours will still be yours. You are the most blessed child, born after swallowing two auspicious clouds. Everything that is rightfully yours is yours."

Fu Bao, naturally, is pampered by everyone.

Qin He glanced at Fu Bao. What an adorable little girl! Everyone should unconditionally give Fu Bao the best things. How could other people's children compare to her Fu Bao? Her Fu Bao was a first-rank princess and a disciple of the immortal sect.

Fu Bao nodded: "But I want to eat spirit duck."

Upon hearing this, Qin He pondered where to get a spirit duck for Fu Bao to eat. She asked the system, which told her that Qin Han had obtained two spirit ducks, and if Fu Bao ate them, it would increase his fortune.

The system said, "Your luck will also be better."

Qin He was surprised. Qin Han had asked Madam He for the spirit duck several times, but Madam He hadn't given Qin Han any.

Qin He coveted Qin Han's spirit duck, which Qin Han had just acquired. Although He Shi didn't give her one, Jiang Shi and Lin Shi each gave Qin Han a spirit duck, which Jiang Shi and Lin Shi found very distressing.

Since their child was still young, Qin Tang and Qin Xun didn't want him to venture into the small space of the demon beast realm. Therefore, they were very frugal with each spirit bird duck they received, killing one to eat and drinking the duck soup.

If one is given to Qin Han, then Qin Tang and Qin Xun's child will have one less.

However, considering Jiang Mo's past contributions to the fourth branch of the family, it was alright to give it away. Giving Qin Tang and Qin Xun a spirit duck was something they could do. Qin Di and He Shi's spirit ducks were given by Qin Bi, so it wouldn't be appropriate to give them to Qin Han.

Qin Han saw the two spirit ducks that had been given to her and asked, "Who gave them to you?"

Jiang thought that Qin Han had found out who gave it to her and remembered the favor, so she said, "Your eldest brother gave you a spirit duck, and your second brother gave you a spirit duck. It will taste even better if you add mushrooms when stewing the duck."

Qin Han then asked, "Didn't Mother give me a spirit duck?"

Jiang: "..."

Jiang lowered her head. She already had two spirit ducks, yet she still coveted the spirit ducks her stepmother had. She had already given two; if her stepmother gave her one more, that would be three spirit ducks! Didn't she think that was too many?

Lin: "..."

Madam Lin couldn't help but say, "Qin Han, the spirit ducks that your mother gave you were given by Qin Bi. It's not appropriate for your mother to give them away. Not to mention you, even our branch of the family and my sister-in-law's eldest branch of the family can't ask for the spirit ducks that Father and Mother have. We've already given you two spirit ducks. Isn't that enough? There are some things that you have to collect yourself."

I collected them myself in the small space of the demon beast realm; I wanted to eat a few, but there weren't any.

Ask someone for them, and they'll give you as many as they want. Why aren't you satisfied?

Qin Han remained silent; she was dissatisfied.

Qin Han was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin's words, but she didn't show it.

There were tables and chairs in the He family's courtyard. A maid had brewed fresh tea on the table. Jiang, Lin, and Qin Han took their seats. They were all juniors, so there was no need for He to come out and keep them company.

In large families, the younger generation likes to gather in the elders' courtyard to drink tea and chat. The elders can call anyone they want.

"I also want to send Jiang Shen to the small space of the demon beast realm." Qin Han didn't want Lin Shi and Jiang Shi to think she was greedy, so she picked up her teacup and drank some tea, saying, "But she's young, and she could easily die in the small space of the demon beast realm. Besides, Rong Yang and Fu Bao didn't go to the small space of the demon beast realm either, did they? How can I bear to send my child to the small space of the demon beast realm where demon beasts roam?" Qin Han wanted to say that she had no other choice.

Everyone here has children, so I'm sure both Madam Jiang and Madam Lin can understand.

Jiang: "..."

Lin: "..."

I'm sorry, neither Madam Jiang nor Madam Lin can understand.

Can Jiang Shen compare to Rong Yang and Fu Bao? The children of merchants are always far inferior to those of nobles. Besides, does your child have that kind of luck? Rong Yang has the resources that the Crown Prince Rong collects for him, and the Duke of Yan's mansion that the Crown Prince He provides.

There's also Fu Bao. Fu Bao used a lot of the resources from the Duke of Yan's mansion, and the resources from the Prince of Xue's mansion were also used sparingly by Fu Bao.

Besides, Fu Bao has a lucky mother, and Qin He has a high level of luck, so she can ask for resources from those around her with just a few words. As for Qin Han, even if you compare her to Jiang Shen and the Qin family's children, you shouldn't compare her to Rong Yang and Fu Bao. There's no comparison at all.

“If your eldest and second brothers hadn’t gone to the small space of the demon beast realm, how could they have caught so many spirit birds and ducks?” Madam Jiang took a sip of tea and said, “Your nephews are also going to the small space of the demon beast realm for training.”

Qin Han lowered her head: "I'm worried."

"Who would feel at ease?" Lin said. "One slip and he could die, but what can we do without cultivation resources?"

Qin Han had other matters to attend to, so she got up and went to the study of the third room to find her father, Qin Di.

Qin Tan and Qin Di were discussing cultivation when they saw Qin Han arrive. They smiled and said, "Qin Han is here."

After Qin Han met Qin Tan, Qin Di asked, "Did you need something from me?"

Qin Han hesitated for a moment, then said, "Father, Mother and I wanted the spirit bird duck, but Mother hesitated to give it to me because it was given to us by Sister Qin Bi. Father, Jiang Mo has always been very good to us. Whenever the Fourth Branch needs Jiang Mo, he is always there for us. Jiang Mo and my child need to eat spirit food, but I can't buy it. Father, even if it was given to you and Mother by Qin Bi, she gave it to you and Mother. Does she have any right to control it? The spirit bird duck given to you belongs to you and Mother. If Qin Bi were sensible, she wouldn't have stopped us."

Qin Tan listened for a while, then sat down to drink tea. He would avoid getting involved in the affairs of the fourth branch of the family if possible.

Qin Di asked Qin Han, "Your mother won't give it to you, so you come to me for it?"

Qin Han had her own thoughts. When her father asked her that, Qin Han lowered her head, and after a while she looked up and said, "Just give me one, I don't need more. Father and Mother have quite a few spirit ducks, how long will it take to eat them all?"

Qin Di said, "You're quite worried, concerned that your mother and I won't be able to finish the food."

Qin Han blushed. It was as if she was eyeing the things her parents had. To be honest, Qin Han was not the type to steal from her parents' family, but she couldn't get her hands on the spirit duck!

If she doesn't ask her father and stepmother for money, who else can Qin Han ask for it from? There are benefits to He Shi's doting on her, and Qin Han has not forgotten He Shi's kindness to her. She usually doesn't return to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence empty-handed.

Qin Han always makes sure to give a share of anything good to Madam He. Isn't that enough?
Qin Han remained silent, while Qin Di said, "Your eldest and second brothers have already given it to you, so I won't give it to you anymore. Your mother refused you, and now you're asking me for it again. This is really inappropriate of you."

"Father gave me the spirit duck," Qin Han said. "I'll go talk to Mother about it."

Qin Tan couldn't remain silent any longer, so she smiled and said, "Qin Han, two spirit ducks are more than enough for you."
