Chapter 164: She Just Didn't Quite Believe It
Qin He was treated coldly and felt resentment in her heart.
But she couldn't leave. If she left like this, she would be looked down upon by her stepmother Cui Shi, and Qin Bi would also look down on her. The people of the Yan Guogong Fu didn't kick her out, did they? Just wait, once she becomes a powerful cultivator, she will slap these people's faces.
She is a transmigrated female lead; how could she be such a mediocre person?
He Shi rushed over from the Qin Yan Hou Fu a step later and was stunned to see Qin He. She was suspicious in her heart but didn't ask anything. Seeing Heir He holding Rong Yang, as long as Rong Yang's interests weren't touched, it was fine.
After eating, the Yan Guogong Madam called Qin He to a small hall: "It is inconvenient for me to entertain guests in my manor; after eating, go back with Fubao."
Qin He had long wanted to leave but had been bracing herself. Hearing this, she smiled, thinking it was very appropriate, and said: "Then I won't disturb you anymore; I will bring Fubao to play another day."
The Yan Guogong Madam didn't respond, and Qin He left with Fubao and her legitimate son.
On the way back, sitting in the carriage, Qin He felt more and more stifled, so angry she almost vomited blood. Since transmigrating, she had never been slapped in the face like this. They all ignored her, looked down on her, and she hated them to death.
Returning to the Xue Wang Fu, the Xue Wang Fei was waiting in the main hall.
Seeing Qin He and the two children return, the nanny took the legitimate son away. Qin He's arms were sore, and Fubao ran to the Xue Wang Fei's side to show off how good the food was and how everyone praised her for having good fortune.
Compared to being in the Yan Guogong Fu, the little girl was spirited again.
"The Yan Guogong Madam kept you for a meal?" The Xue Wang Fei was a bit surprised.
Qin He smiled faintly and nodded, sat down, and said: "Originally, I was going to stay longer, but Fubao insisted on coming back, so I brought her back. The He family is worthy of being a large cultivation family; the clan members are all outstanding."
The Xue Wang Fei's eyes flashed, and she smiled: "It looks like Heir He didn't neglect Fubao because he had a child."
Qin He echoed: "Fubao was raised watching Heir He."
The Xue Wang Fei nodded. In that case, they had to plan carefully how to let Fubao compete for more things from the Yan Guogong Fu. It was different for Heir He to have a biological child and not to have one.
Qin He went to the Yan Guogong Fu, and Rong Juan soon knew about this.
Rong Juan returned to the bedroom from the study. The young son hadn't woken up yet. Rong Juan sat down to drink tea and told Qin Bi, who had just woken up from her nap, about this: "Qin He went to the Yan Guogong Fu?"
Qin Bi was surprised. Amazing, even she, Rong Yang's birth mother, found it hard to go on such a day, yet Qin He went swaggering in.
Courageous, one had to admire it.
"Rong Yang didn't suffer any losses, did he?" Qin Bi was afraid of unexpected things.
Qin Bi always felt that things were unpredictable and couldn't be certain.
"What are you thinking?" Rong Juan glanced at Qin Bi: "How could that be? If He Yan dared to let my son suffer, I, Rong Juan, would dare to get another little Junzhu title for Rong Yang."
As long as he saw Heir He treating Rong Yang with the slightest neglect, Rong Juan would take the child back.
With his battle merit points, it wouldn't be a problem to get another little Junzhu title for his eldest son.
It was just that the Yan Guogong Fu clearly should belong to Rong Yang; handing it over to others was absolutely impossible.
Qin Bi believed these words. The Rong Shizi had this ability. Now, the main thing was that the young son needed to be raised, and the Rong Shizi couldn't leave. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a problem to get a hereditary title with battle merits.
"I just don't understand." Qin Bi said with difficulty: "Isn't Qin He very proud? If Heir He had any heart, as long as he was cold, Heir He would find her to compensate her himself. It's so awkward for Qin He to crowd over at this time."
"Such a large family business of the Yan Guogong Fu is about to fly away." Rong Juan sneered coldly: "She's anxious!"
Qin Bi chuckled. So, Qin He wasn't that confident that she could handle He Yan. Some things couldn't just be looked at on the surface. Qin Bi sneered, but Qin He had indeed gained many benefits.
Fortunately, they divorced!
The female relatives of the civil and military officials' families had heard a little about Qin He going to the Yan Guogong Fu and couldn't help but sigh. The Minister of Revenue's wife said: "The feelings of childhood sweethearts are just different. Allowing Qin He to go on such a day, Heir He must still be supporting Qin He."
"I heard she even left after eating." Another lady said.
Several ladies were thoughtful. This was not treating Qin He as an outsider.
"In the future, we can't look down on the First-Rank Little Junzhu Fubao." The Vice Minister of War's wife said: "With a mother like Qin He, the First-Rank Little Junzhu Fubao's cultivation path in the future won't be bad."
The ladies all had their own thoughts, but they didn't refute it.
In the cultivation world, the strong are respected; without strength, one is like an ant. Everyone wants to be on good terms with powerful cultivators.
The next day, Qin He went to the Qin Yan Hou Fu and went to find her stepmother Cui Shi with her head held high: "Mother, I went to find Heir He."
Cui Shi was suspicious and uncertain; she really didn't dare to think that Qin He would actually dare to go, and that she had even been kept for a meal before leaving. She couldn't imagine that Heir He was so deeply affectionate toward Qin He that he would give Qin He face on such an occasion.
"Did you ask Heir He about the child?" Cui Shi still found it hard to believe.
"I asked." Qin He felt guilty for a moment, but thinking of Qin Bi secretly giving birth to Heir He's child, she became righteous again: "I said I would go and ask, so I definitely wouldn't break my word. The people of the Yan Guogong Fu still cherish my Fubao. Qin Bi gave birth to the child, and Heir He had to acknowledge it; after all, he had no children. Qin Bi is really good at calculating."
Cui Shi was skeptical: "Did you really ask?"
"Of course." Qin He said proudly: "Heir He promised me 'one life, one pair.' He failed me and must give me an explanation. How could Qin Bi use schemes to give birth to a child and snatch the status of Fubao and me?"
Cui Shi stared at Qin He; she just didn't quite believe it.
But Qin He was adamant, and Cui Shi had to believe it. After all, Qin He had indeed gone to the Yan Guogong Fu, and Qin Yan had followed her. This illegitimate daughter had returned and was full of envy.
"Mother." Qin He said solemnly, with a serious face: "My fortune value is high, and my child's fortune value is also high. I hope the Qin Yan Hou Fu and the Cui family will provide me with assistance."
Cui Shi was the mistress of the house, came from a high background, and valued interests the most. She said: "As long as you have ability, the Cui family will naturally provide you with assistance."
Qin He was proud, her chin slightly raised: "I need cultivation resources, and I happen to be lacking beast crystals. Mother, can you give me one hundred beast crystals? I am valued by the Xian Sect, which is also good for the Cui clan."
Cui Shi didn't say anything more and ordered someone to take one hundred beast crystals for Qin He.
Qin He revealed a proud smile and left Cui Shi's courtyard. Her legitimate younger sister and Qin Yan and others came over, all of them envious and flattering Qin He, their eyes shining brightly.
"Qin He Jiejie, you really have good fortune!" Qin Yan said.
Qin He held a smile, enjoying the flattery.
Qin He's legitimate younger sister snorted: "Let Qin Bi be proud. So what if she secretly gave birth to Heir He's child? She still can't compete with Fubao. The little Junzhu Rong Yang met the He clan members, Qin He could go to the Yan Guogong Fu, but Qin Bi couldn't. What does Qin Bi have to compete with Qin He Jiejie?" ===== CHAPTER 165 =====
