Chapter 142: Married Really Well

Qin Bi couldn't suppress her laughter. Oh my, saving baskets.

This fictional world, similar to cultivation, was getting more and more fun. From the time she was born in a womb until she was a few years old, Qin Bi heard that this world cultivated immortals, and the Marquis Manor had few cultivators, so she just listened.

The closest thing to daily life was the mystic master and art master's prophecy.

This wasn't just hearing about it. When she reached the age of marriage, she was suddenly prophesied by the mystic master to be childless. Qin Bi had a moment of panic and confusion, but she didn't question it. She still believed in the prophecy.

Besides, there were two people with the destiny of being wife-killing and childless by her side, and there was also Qin He who suddenly crossed over.

Because Qin He slowly tossed out little gadgets and could make soap, everyone said Qin He had blessings. At first, no one said it, but when the children of each manor reached the age of marriage, Qin He slowly gained a reputation for having blessings.

"Still a little less," Qin Bi laughed. The Rong Shizi couldn't possibly allow her to go to the small space of the Beast Realm again. She was pregnant and wouldn

"It's fine if you don't go." Jiang Shi was also nervous about the pregnancy Qin Bi was carrying: "You can't just look at the harvest. If anything happens to you, our Marquis Manor won't be able to answer to the Rong Heir Apparent."

This was no lie; all of them understood this.

Don't look at how much the Rong Heir Apparent favored the Qin Yan Marquis Manor; if Qin Bi were to injure the fetus, the Rong Heir Apparent could instantly turn into a god of slaughter. There was no doubt about this point, and Qin Lang and Jiang Shi were clear on it in their hearts.

However, in the Xue Prince Manor, Qin He did not think so.

The Xue Heir Apparent found time to instruct Qin He: "Qin He, the Beast Realm small space is a place for killing and seizing treasures. When necessary, you can turn hostile and heartless, but once you leave the Beast Realm small space, everything must return to its original place. Even if you and your cousin Qin Bi tear off the mask in the Beast Realm small space, you must maintain decorum when you return. I don't require you to act as if nothing happened, but sisters should interact; you cannot act according to your whims."

The reason the Xue Heir Apparent instructed Qin He this way was because Qin He's thoughts were sometimes different from everyone else's.

Qin He was as elegant as an orchid and was also a talented woman among the ladies of Great Yan. She was intelligent and beautiful. The Xue Heir Apparent did not want to trap Qin He in the inner chambers, but what needed to be taught to Qin He had to be taught. In Great Yan, it was never a case of doing whatever you wanted.

Especially in prominent clans, if the reputation of quarreling with one's own brothers and sisters spread, it would be very difficult to get along in the circle of noble families.

"I'm just not reconciled." Qin He threw a tantrum coquettishly.

"Your cousin has never been an Heir Apparent's consort. Suddenly becoming the Rong Heir Apparent's consort, she has become a bit arrogant." The Xue Heir Apparent helped Qin He sit down for a chat, his tone filled with disdain: "The Rong Heir Apparent protects her. You and Qin Bi made the best marriages, so it's better not to become enemies. You don't have to give your cousin face, but the Rong Heir Apparent and I are opening a shop together; you must always consider the Rong Heir Apparent's face."

Qin He wanted to endure it, but she was not reconciled: "She's just relying on being pregnant."

The Xue Heir Apparent went to the side, sat down, and fiddled with his summoning artifact, saying: "The Rong Heir Apparent has a fate of cursing his wives and having no children. Your cousin's luck is not bad; otherwise, how could she have such good fortune now? Once she is pregnant with the Rong Heir Apparent's child, she can rise in status through her child. Her position as the Heir Apparent's consort is secure."

Qin He was indignant: "What's so great about being pregnant?"

The Xue Heir Apparent just took Qin He's attitude as that of a petty woman who was unconvinced and did not respond to this. This statement was wrong; being pregnant was indeed nothing great, but it depended on whose child one was pregnant with.

Rong Juan cursed his wives and had no children, but he was destined to have no children for his whole life.

Qin Bi had given birth to one and was now pregnant with another; the entire Rong Prince Manor was going to protect Qin Bi like the apple of their eye.

The Xue Heir Apparent stayed in his courtyard for a while. Qin He brought their legitimate son to him. The Xue Heir Apparent did not like taking care of children, so he quickly found an excuse to go out. Qin Yan and Qin Cui had come to the Prince Manor.

The two of them teased the little one, currying favor in front of Qin He.

Looking at the Xue Prince Manor, Qin Yan and Qin Cui were full of envy. Qin Yan looked up at the courtyard corridor and said: "Sister Qin He, you married so well. I am also a concubine-born daughter; I only hope to be one ten-thousandth as good as you, Sister."

Qin He felt disdain in her heart, but she said: "You are both beautiful; you will definitely marry well."

Qin Yan and Qin Cui pursed their lips and smiled shyly. Sister Qin Han had married a merchant and was doing quite well. Now that the Qin Yan Marquis Manor was a cultivation family, the worst they would do was marry a merchant.

If only they could be noticed by a prominent family; they only had a tiny bit of hope of becoming an Heir Apparent's consort.

After all, such good luck was too rare.

As the weather warmed up, the soil dug back was mixed into the compacted fields. The Rong Prince Manor improved twenty mu of fields—second-grade fields; twenty mu was already quite good. The Qin Yan Marquis Manor also improved twenty mu, but they were below second-grade fields.

The willow wood and bush clover wood brought back were woven into baskets, totaling about five thousand, not including the baskets distributed to Lin Yao and Guard Yan and others, nor those rewarded to the imperial physicians. Among all the families, the Rong Prince Manor had the biggest harvest.

After checking the woven baskets, the little milk bun giggled for several days in a row.

The Rong Heir Apparent was also in a good mood. It was unknown what he said to the child, but Rong Yang gave most of the sturdiest baskets to the one Qin Bi was carrying; this was the true treasure of their family.

Rosewood was precious. Rong Juan picked the carpenter with the best craftsmanship in the Ministry of Revenue to make a small bed.

The carpenter from the Ministry of Revenue was arranged to be in the side courtyard. Whoever was free between the Rong Heir Apparent and Rong Yang would go and watch. Qin Bi went once and discovered from afar that the child who giggled in front of her was pursing his face with the aura of a little Heir Apparent.

It wasn't the kind of aura that was put on, but something from his very bones.

Seeing Qin Bi come, the child bowed: "Mother."

Qin Bi felt a moment of strangeness. The little milk bun tilted his little head, puzzled: "Mother?"

Rong Juan had taught him well. Qin Bi smiled and explained: "You just now had the look of a little Heir Apparent, different from how you are in front of me. I was a bit silly; I don't have the look of an Heir Apparent's consort."

Rong Yang was still young and didn't quite understand, so he pulled Qin Bi away: "There are wood shavings; it's not good for Mother. I'll go elsewhere with Mother."

"Why do I feel like you're more like an adult than I am?" Qin Bi said amusedly, saying whatever was on her mind.

The little milk bun giggled. Qin Bi looked at the tiny bundle and followed suit, laughing.

In the Heir Apparent's study, the strategists were full of emotion. It was good to have children after all. Their Rong Heir Apparent was finally no longer fated to curse his wives and have no children. Compared to the other powerful Heir Apparent, Lin Yao and the others were secretly smug.

It was fortunate that their Heir Apparent suddenly changed his mind and sought to marry the fourth branch's concubine-born daughter of the Qin Yan Marquis Manor. If they had been even one step slower, their Heir Apparent would have been a lonely man. Look at the Rong Prince Manor now; how good it was.

As for the He Heir Apparent? Who cared about him? If he had no children, he had no children.

Lin Yao found time to watch over the making of furniture for the child—all sorts of little things: small chairs, small stools, carved with flowers, plants, birds, and insects. The wood was all precious timber.

After a small table was finished, Rong Juan stood with his hands behind his back. Rong Yang looked at the small table longingly; it was very small and made of purple sandalwood.
