The wife travels through time and space to honor her husband: The heirless prince raises a child
Chapter 462 Quite Scheming
Upon entering the room, Qin Bi and Qin Lang sat in the main seats.
The children sat around, shouting and cheering, and the table was covered with various ingredients.
There are several kinds of spiritual food. Even the ingredients without spiritual energy are all excellent. Vegetables are hard to preserve in winter, so most of them are radishes and cabbages, and there are not many other fresh vegetables.
Qin Han's expression changed after just one glance.
They tricked her child into staying at the main courtyard of the fourth house with the adults, while Qin Bi ate delicious food with Qin Lang and others.
Spiritual food is beneficial for cultivation. It includes both meat and vegetables, and all kinds of oven-baked flatbread that Qin Han usually wouldn't buy for her children, as well as various pastries, sweets, spicy dishes, and a whole table full of food.
Qin Han was furious; her family had mistreated them.
"I heard that my nephews are all staying with Sister Qin Bi. I was thinking of sending Jiang Shen and her brother over to have dinner with you." Qin Han tried her best to suppress her anger so as not to be seen as being inconsiderate. She continued, "You ate so well without my mother and the others. There were so many pastries and other things that I've never seen before. Your table was very well-fed, while Jiang Shen and her brother ate very little."
Several duck legs have already been eaten, and there are still some duck heads left. A few were left for Rong Yang. The child is still asleep in bed, and everyone is speaking in hushed tones.
Qin Han's words implied that her child was being mistreated.
Who to blame? I don't know, I blame everyone.
Qin Bi was eating the sour pickled fruit as a snack. She had never eaten it before, but she was surprised to find that it tasted pretty good. Qin Bi smiled at the veiled meaning in Qin Han's words.
While leisurely eating her pickled fruit, Qin Bi couldn't empathize with Qin Han's dissatisfaction. Everyone knew the hidden meaning in her words. Qin Bi said, "Rong Yang is sleeping. It's noisy with too many people around. It's not good to call the children over."
Qin Bi didn't understand Qin Han's child; if the child was very noisy, calling him would cause a lot of trouble.
So, even if Qin Bi knew that Qin Han had brought her child, she wouldn't have invited her. She never planned to have any extra children, and Qin Bi never intended to invite Qin Han's child over.
Qin Han didn't need to make a fuss; their relationship was just so-so, and inviting them to dinner would be difficult to handle.
Qin Han lowered her head: "Jiang Shen and her brother don't cause trouble."
Qin Bi pretended not to hear Qin Han's words. She neither made a fuss nor called Jiang Shen and her brother. It wasn't a matter of making a fuss or not. Qin Bi found it annoying and didn't have the patience to deal with these trivial matters.
Qin Bi asked, "Didn't you play with Fu Bao?"
Given the relationship between Qin Han and Qin He, their children should be close, inseparable, and have a deep sisterly bond. They could become good sisters when they grow up, as long as Fu Bao doesn't mind that Jiang Shen's family are merchants.
Seemingly unconcerned whether Qin Han answered or not, Qin Bi said, "I heard that Qin He didn't leave, and Fu Bao also came to the Marquis's residence. Are Jiang Shen and Fu Bao having fun? Jiang Shen can go to the second branch of the house to play with Fu Bao after you've eaten your fill."
This is Jiang Shen's daily routine; she shouldn't be here.
The Marquis's mansion has fallen on hard times in recent years. The courtyard is empty, and the people living in each house are not wealthy. Fortunately, the area is large, and the concubine's daughter no longer lives with her aunt, but lives in her own courtyard. The relationship between them living together is not necessarily good.
Jiang Shen said, "I want to play with Rong Yang."
"Fu Bao is lucky." Qin Bi chuckled, emphasizing that Fu Bao was lucky. There was no need for Jiang Shen to play with Rong Yang, since their mothers didn't get along and the children wouldn't play together. Qin Bi casually advised, "Go play with Fu Bao. Rong Yang hasn't woken up yet."
When she woke up, there was Qin Lang and several of her cousins. Rong Yang and Jiang Shen weren't close.
Since the cousins weren't close at first, and they've gotten along just the way they have now, there's no need to change anything. Besides, Qin Bi and Jiang Mo had discussed marriage, which Qin Han was very bothered by. Does anyone think they didn't notice?
Since you mind, it's best to maintain regular contact.
The best time for Qin Han and Qin Bi's relationship has passed. If Qin Han had treated Qin Bi like an older sister during Qin Bi's arguments with He Yan, or when Qin He provoked Qin Bi, they wouldn't have drifted so far apart. Once their relationship becomes distant, it's hard to mend.
Of course, Qin Han may not have intended to ease tensions.
Qin Han had already married Jiang Mo and had a child, Jiang Shen. Every time Qin Han saw Qin Bi, she was still wary, as if she was afraid that Qin Bi and Jiang Mo would have something going on. This was like a thorn in Qin Han's heart, and she couldn't let it go.
Qin Bi pushed Jiang Shen towards Fu Bao's side. It wasn't that she disliked her, but she definitely didn't like her. Jiang Shi saw this and knew that Qin Bi and Qin Han's relationship was just like that.
She had originally intended to try and win over the two of them, but now it seems that Jiang Shi has given up on that idea.
Jiang asked the children with a wry smile, "Aren't you full yet?"
"I'm not full." Qin Su said, gnawing on spicy spirit duck meat.
Jiang saw that there were still more than half of the dishes on the table, and she knew that they would continue to eat.
Qin Han asked Jiang Shen, "Are you full?"
This was a rather cunning statement. It didn't matter who from Jiang Shi, Qin Bi, or Qin Lang responded; as long as they invited Jiang Shen and her brother to sit down, Qin Han's goal would be achieved. Whether Jiang Shen had eaten enough or not was irrelevant.
You can eat more even if you're full; it's all good food.
Jiang Shen hesitated. She was already full, but she still wanted to eat.
The table was laden with delicious dishes, and Jiang Shen secretly swallowed her saliva.
Jiang didn't respond. This was Qin Bi's courtyard. Qin Bi was no longer an unmarried concubine's daughter of the Marquis's mansion. She had married into a higher social class, and Jiang had to give Qin Bi face, even though this was the fourth branch of the Marquis's mansion.
Qin Lang also looked at Qin Bi, who got up and went to the bedside to see if the child had woken up.
Rong Yang stirred slightly, and Qin Bi smiled, picking up the child: "Rong Yang."
Rong Yang nestled in Qin Bi's arms and wouldn't sleep. He was still drowsy after just waking up, so Qin Bi picked him up. The maid poured some warm water, and Qin Bi wrung out a towel and gently wiped the child's face. The child's skin was delicate.
"He's so handsome." Qin Bi didn't know how to praise him properly.
Rong Yang laughed, and Qin Bi carried him to the table to sit down. She saved a few spicy duck legs, duck wings, and duck heads for the child. Qin Bi first took a spicy duck leg for the child to eat.
Qin Han felt uncomfortable looking at the plate of spicy duck meat, feeling slighted. Since no one invited Jiang Shen and her siblings to sit down, Qin Han didn't want to make a fool of herself, so she left with the children.
Jiang Shen and her brother kept turning back to look at each other, wanting to play and eat and drink with everyone. This table was too lively, but no one called them to stop, so they could only pout and leave.
Jiang sighed, but Qin Bi didn't even raise her eyes.
Qin Bi felt no affection for Jiang Shen and her brother, unlike Qin Tang and Qin Xun's children, whom she constantly worried about. Even though Jiang Shen and her brother were pitiful, so what? Qin Bi remained indifferent.
"Why did you bring Qin Han along?" Qin Lang asked Jiang Shi.
“She lives in the same courtyard as Qin Bi.” Jiang said helplessly, “Besides, she wanted to come to her own courtyard after eating, so why should I stop her? And you, why did you and your cousin buy so much good food?”
Not inviting Qin Han's children to this table would make it seem like her family is showing favoritism.
Actually, the Qin brothers didn't have that intention; they were just afraid Qin Han would overthink it. (End of Chapter)
