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

"Qin Bi," Madam He waved her hand, "why don't you come and take a look at these?"

Qin Lang took Rong Yang to Qin Bi's courtyard, and Qin Bi walked over to He Shi and the others.

The gifts were ten catties of meat and a basket of eggs, which was a heavy gift for an ordinary family. However, it was a bit lighter when traveling between different households. However, Qin He was not an important relative to the fourth branch of the family.

It's just a formality, anything goes.

Qin Bi was worried that there might be things she didn't know, so she asked, "Is that all?"

Madam He valued Qin Bi's opinion, which is why she asked her to review it once.

Upon hearing this, Madam He nodded: "That's all."

Qin Xun's children were playing nearby. Qin Bi said, "Take a few and cook them."

Ms. He: "..."

The child listened to his aunt and took a few eggs from the basket to the kitchen. The basket was not very big, and it could hold about ten pounds. He took about ten eggs.

“This, this…” Jiang said, “I can’t tell.”

The implication was that he didn't think Qin Bi had done anything wrong.

He said irritably, "How much benefit can Qin He gain from a few eggs?"

He was not a stingy person.

Qin Bi muttered incoherently, implying something: "Even if I give it to her, I won't give her the full amount. If it's a little less, Qin He will feel incomplete. Everything I give Qin He is missing corners or edges, and it's not complete."

Ms. He: "..."

It's okay, Qin Bi is like this, she'll indulge her.

Jiang and Lin exchanged a glance, their hearts sinking. Lin pulled her child aside and whispered a few words. The child walked to the gift box, took out a small dagger, and cut off a pound of meat. "This isn't enough," she said.

Upon seeing this, Madam Zhu quickly returned to the third courtyard.

The original gifts were changed to meat and eggs. Qin Tan hadn't returned to the county office yet when he saw Zhu Shi busy with the work and asked her about it. Zhu Shi whispered Qin Bi's words to Qin Tan.

Qin Tan immediately thought of luck. Qin Bi could attract a small cloud of energy just by planting crops. And it was a generous little cloud of energy. With a wave of her hand, rainwater could grow spiritual vegetables that were good for cultivation.

My gaze fell on the eggs that had been brought out; the meat hadn't been bought yet.

Qin Tan called over a servant: "Pick a few, cook them and eat them. You and the guards should also eat a few."

"Yes, sir." The servant immediately tugged at the corner of his clothes, picked up the eggs, and placed them on his clothes.

Zhu: "..."

“You’re just like your niece,” Zhu said irritably.

"I wish I had her good fortune," Qin Tan said enviously.

Zhu went to the fourth branch of the family again. Qin Bi is indeed doing well in everything now, unlike Qin He, who is depressed and ill. Why? Because things are not going well. She used to have everything go smoothly, and she can't stand it when things don't go her way.

Qin Han is also going to Prince Xue's mansion with everyone today. Among the sisters of the same generation in the Marquis's mansion, if anyone doesn't go to visit Qin He, Qin Han has to go too. There's no other reason than that she and Qin He are the closest, they run a shop together, and there are too many things involved.

Qin Han entered the fourth courtyard and, upon seeing Qin Bi, was momentarily stunned. Qin Bi never attended to Qin He's affairs, but this time…
Qin Han couldn't guess what was going on, so she went over to greet her: "Sister Qin Bi, are you also going to Prince Xue's residence?"

At this probing tone, a mocking smile appeared on Qin Bi's lips as she said, "No, I'm not going. I'm just coming to my parents' house."

"Aren't you going?" Qin Han hesitated, and Qin Bi looked at her before Qin Han said, "Qin He has prepared generous gifts for Rong Yang and Rong Chi's full moon celebration. She's sick, so it wouldn't be appropriate for you not to go, would it? Besides, if you're not free, that's another story. But you seem to be free now. Since you're here at the Marquis's residence, why don't you come to the Xue Prince's residence with us?"

If Qin Bi and Qin He were to reconcile, her few words of advice would have played a significant role.

Qin Bi laughed. Since Qin Han was so meddlesome, Qin Bi didn't mind explaining the situation to her: "When Rong Yang and Rong Chi celebrated their full moon, was Qin He targeting me? She even thought the spiritual vegetables I grew belonged to the Rong Prince and had nothing to do with me. In Qin He's eyes, I am me and the Rong Prince is the Rong Prince. Since Qin He gave the full moon gift because of the Rong Prince's reputation, I don't need to feel like I have a lot of face, do I?"

Qin Bi waved her hand dismissively: "It's easy for Qin He to do this. I don't owe her anything, and I don't need to visit her."

Qin Han was speechless. Yes, she had nothing to say. Qin He had always done it this way and thought this way, even though it was very unreasonable. But that's how she did it. Now, she's been proven wrong.

Qin Bi was unrestrained and did whatever she wanted, because that's exactly what Qin He did. She acted and interacted with others according to her own set of ideas, and Qin Bi wasn't necessarily more rule-abiding either.

Qin Bi showed no respect whatsoever, and Qin Han's eagerness to make arrangements for Qin He was completely unreasonable.

Qin Han shut her mouth and stopped mentioning sending Qin Bi to Prince Xue's residence.

The Crown Prince's wife was very busy early this morning, going to each courtyard to see what had been prepared, so that the Lady of Qin Yanhou could be aware of the situation. When the Crown Prince's wife saw the gifts prepared by the third and fourth branches of the household.

The Crown Prince's wife: "......"

The second and fourth wives were not on good terms, but they were polite to each other on the surface.

But why is the third wife getting involved?!
The Crown Prince's wife returned to the main courtyard and spoke with the Lady of Qin Yanhou. She then said, "The fourth branch only had meat and eggs, and not many in quantity. The third branch was the same. The gifts prepared were rather lacking."

"Sigh." Lady Qin Yanhou sighed and instructed, "Add a few more medicinal herbs to the third and fourth households, so that the Xue Prince's Mansion won't gossip about it."

It's impossible to ask the fourth and third wives to add anything. Gifts cost money, and people prepare gifts carefully considering the relationship. Asking them to spend more money will only cause unpleasantness.

The ladies were all ready, along with Qin He and her sisters-in-law, and they all went to the Xue Prince's Mansion in a flurry.

The Xue Prince's residence was already waiting, and Princess Xue greeted the people from the Marquis's residence.

It wasn't appropriate to stay too long during a visit, so after sitting for a while, everyone noticed Qin He's haggard appearance and got up to take their leave.

After everyone left, Qin He sent her head maid to take stock of the things sent by her maternal family. After asking about the meat and eggs sent by the third and fourth branches of the family, she pouted with great dissatisfaction.

Hearing that there were also medicinal herbs, Qin He said, "Use medicinal herbs to stew the chicken, and take the herbs given by the third and fourth branches."

The maid was puzzled and said, "The medicinal herbs sent by the Lady of Qin Yanhou and the Second Lady are the best, as are the fruits sent by the Lady of the Heir Apparent and Miss Qin Han. They are quite rare in winter. I'll wash a plate for the Heir Apparent."

Qin He waved her hand: "We'll use the medicinal herbs provided by the third and fourth families."

The maid had no choice but to leave and take the medicinal herbs given by the third and fourth households to stew the chicken.

Qin Han followed everyone back to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence, and asked about the spiritual vegetables: "Mother, don't you have any of my spiritual vegetables?"

Ms. He: "..."

I knew this was going to happen, I guessed it was coming, but I didn't expect Qin Han to actually ask for it. No wonder Madam Lin was worried and seemed afraid of her sister-in-law. Qin Han has been seen through.

"These are spiritual vegetables grown by Qin Bi," said Madam He. "Go ask Qin Bi for them; I don't know how to grow vegetables." (End of Chapter)
