Chapter 210: What Is She Here For?

~8 min read 1,541 words

Qin He's tone was certain, and Qin Yan did not doubt for a second that it was Qin He who had summoned the rain.

Although Qin Yan was puzzled as to why the rain summoned a few days ago was only falling today, she had doubts, but not many. Qin He's tone was too certain, and Qin Yan's mind couldn't quite turn the corner.

Xue Wang Fei was puzzled for a moment: "Your cousin is stealing your credit?"

"As long as it's mine, she likes to steal it," Qin He explained. She changed into an outfit for going out, and while being surrounded by maids to style her hair, she said: "It was the same in the Beast Realm's small space. Qin Bi even claimed that the small space I opened was opened by her."

Upon hearing this, Xue Wang Fei immediately believed her: "You go quickly. Perhaps she is taking advantage of your coma to do something else. If she tells the people in the Marquis Manor that she summoned this rain, and everyone knows that you and Fubao are unconscious, no one will doubt what she says."

Qin He packed up quickly, not forgetting to bring her exquisite Shizifei headpiece.

Summoning rain was a grand and impressive affair, and Qin He paid close attention to her attire. Xue Shizi was still unconscious, and Qin He couldn't care about him. Fubao clamored to go together, but Qin He hesitated and didn't bring Fubao.

Activating the teleportation array, the group arrived directly at the Marquis Manor's farmland.

Upon touching the ground, they were met with a downpour of rain. A look of surprise appeared on Qin He's pale face, and Qin Yan was even more jubilant: "Qin He Jiejie, look, it's raining heavily."

Qin He had a look of confidence, a smile on her lips, and standing under the umbrella held by her maid, she said: "I knew it would rain."

She was very certain, with the air of someone who had known all along.

Everyone was standing at the edge of the field where it wasn't raining, as standing in the rain for too long was hard on the body. Seeing the newcomers, everyone looked over. When Qin Yan saw it was Qin He, he was surprised for a moment. Qin Tang and Qin Xun just glanced at her and didn't move.

Qin Lang rolled his eyes and was curious: "Wasn't she in a coma? What is she here for?"

Qin Tang narrowed his eyes, and Qin Xun pondered.

As the Shizi, Qin Yan couldn't not go over to greet her, so he stepped forward. Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi and the others glanced over, and seeing it was people from the Xue Wang Fu, they didn't take it to heart. After all, Qin He came from the Qin Yan Hou Fu.

"Qin He, you're awake," Qin Yan frowned. "Why did you come out as soon as you woke up? You should be recuperating well in the Wang Fu for a period of time. Exhausting your spiritual power and injuring your spiritual manor is no small matter."

Qin He immediately left the rainy area, and Qin Yan said happily: "Big Cousin, this rain is so heavy. The farmland has been irrigated, and the crops have soaked up the rainwater; it must be very beneficial."

These words hit home for Qin Yan, and he smiled.

"This rain has been falling for half a day," Qin Yan said.

Qin He was even happier, her pretty face full of smiles: "I knew it would rain. Big Cousin, how large is the area covered by this rain? How many families' farmland does it cover?"

"The area is not small," Qin Yan said, looking at the vast farmland in the rain, his expression relaxed: "All of our Qin Yan Hou Fu's farmland has received rain, as well as a piece of farmland belonging to my maternal grandfather's family."

"How large is the piece of farmland belonging to the Yan Guogong Manor?" Qin He asked hurriedly.

As they spoke, the group walked to the side of the crowd. Su Shizi glanced at the people from the Xue Wang Fu, and Qin He saw him and nodded slightly to greet him, and Su Shizi smiled.

"Qin He has also come to the farmland?" Su Shizi spoke up.

The Qin Yan Hou Fu and the Yan Guogong Manor were relatives, and Su Shizi knew Qin He. Su Shizi had even participated in the shops she opened before. Qin He intended to be on good terms with Qin Yan's maternal family from the bottom of her heart.

"Yes," Qin He smiled faintly, her back straight: "I came to see the rain situation."

Su Shizi was slightly puzzled in his heart, only thinking that Qin He's serious demeanor was because she valued the Marquis Manor's farmland. A married daughter caring for her maiden family was understandable. Heavy rain was no small matter, and it was reasonable for Qin He to rush over to see it.

"Su Shizi, how large is the piece of farmland belonging to the Yan Guogong Manor?" Qin He asked Su Shizi again.

Su Shizi knew the acreage of his mother's farm very well and said it instantly: "About fifty mu."

Great Yan was vast, and there was much farmland under cultivation, but farmland was divided into several grades. First-grade fertile land had the highest price, but there wasn't much land classified as first-grade fertile land, and noble families valued first-grade fertile land highly.

There was plenty of ordinary farmland, but the crop yields were very low.

The total farmland of Yan Guogong Lady's farm was about fifty mu. Qin He gave her guard a look, and the guard quickly went to check the acreage of the Yan Guogong Manor's farmland.

There was also the farmland of the third and fourth branches; it wasn't the Marquis Manor's public land, so the acreage had to be calculated clearly if they were to benefit.

Qin He could take care of the people in the Marquis Manor, but how could she let them take advantage of her for nothing? Besides, hmph, weren't the third and fourth branches at odds with her? How could they have the face to use the rain she summoned for irrigation?

Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi watched the Xue Wang Fu's guard leave, leaned back, and asked Su Shizi standing behind him: "What does this mean? Why did the Xue Wang Fu's Shizifei send someone to check the acreage of your family's farmland?"

Su Shizi was also a bit puzzled. A genius of a cultivation family could manage her maiden family's affairs after marriage, but Qin He was not considered a genius of the family. What did it mean for her to interfere with farmland irrigation as soon as she arrived?

Su Shizi looked at Qin Yan, and Qin Yan was also puzzled!

Qin Lang knew what kind of person Qin He was, and the young man's mind was sharp. He whispered to Qin Tang: "I don't think Qin He has any good intentions. If it was Qin Bi Jiejie who summoned the rain, I would suspect that Qin He rushed over to steal the credit."

Qin Tang and Qin Xun frowned, but this rain was brought over by the joint efforts of cultivators. Qin Bi's summoned rain was in the Rong Shizi's fief, so it didn't make sense for Qin He to come and steal the credit!

They couldn't guess, so they simply stopped thinking about it.

Everyone watched the rain together, chatting idly. Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi thought about it and got angry. The more he looked at the edge of the field, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help but mock Qin Shizi and Su Shizi.

"With such a heavy rainfall, you really have the nerve," Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi stepped on a stone and looked at the rainy farmland: "Look at how petty you are. It's been raining for half a day, and not a drop of water has fallen on our families' farmland. I've seen stingy people, but never anyone this stingy."

Qin Yan and Su Shizi kept their mouths shut and didn't respond. Qin Tang and the Su family disciples also didn't speak. Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi and the others were jealous of the rain and would mock them every once in a while; they were used to it.

The families had decent relationships, so not giving any rain to Prince Anyuan Hou and the others was hard to justify; it was too deliberate.

However, Qin He was not happy and said with a serious face: "Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi, you are wrong. Summoning rain consumes a lot of spiritual power. You shouldn't mock us just because the rain didn't fall on your family's land."

Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi: "..."

"Heh!" Prince Anyuan Hou Shizi said: "So you're stingy and you won't even let people talk about it."

Qin He said righteously: "This rain was summoned by me exhausting my spiritual power and turning the tide. I will not allow you to slander it."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. Good heavens, no wonder she started pointing fingers as soon as she arrived. ===== CHAPTER 211 =====
