Chapter 245: A Pet of the Family

"You're finally back." The servant greeted them. Without waiting for Qin Lang to ask, he chattered: "Young Master Qin, what exactly is the problem with the second lady? It seems our Heir Apparent's possession is not as simple as that."

From the servant, everyone learned that when the spell was cast on the Heir Apparent Anyuan last time, the Heir Apparent Anyuan had caught a cold, which was not very serious. Knowing that his second aunt's family would definitely return from the restaurant these days, he simply cast the spell regardless of whether he was possessed or not.

As a result, the cold became severe after returning, and at that time, his second aunt had made a trip to the Marquis Manor.

This time, when she went to the Marquis Manor, the second lady used a little bit of cleverness. She knew she was an outsider and the Marquis Manor might not welcome her, but her son was the Marquis's own nephew, so it was naturally different.

"I'm not going." The second lady complained to her son: "Your Heir Apparent brother feels uncomfortable when he sees me. The Marchioness clearly said not to let me go, and when I went, I was given a cold shoulder."

"I want to get engaged, so I have to tell the eldest uncle anyway." The cousin wanted to go to the Marquis Manor very much. He was engaged, and people of his age already had several children. This engagement had to be told to the clansmen: "If the cousin can't see you, you can send someone to tell him in advance and let the cousin avoid it in the courtyard."

The purpose of the complaint was achieved, and the second lady curled her lip in secret.

When the Marquis Manor learned that the mother and son were coming, the Marquis hurriedly sent someone to inform the Heir Apparent: "Don't come to eat first. Your second aunt is coming. Wait until she leaves before you come over."

He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan was hungry, but forget it, he could only take a nap.

The mother and son didn't stay long in the Marquis Manor and soon left. Only then did the Marquis Manor have dinner.

He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan asked: "What did the mother and son come for?"

He usually called her second aunt, but now he didn't want to; he was annoyed.

"Your cousin is getting engaged, so he came to tell us." The Marchioness was kind and naturally liked family harmony, speaking well for her nephew: "Your cousin said that he is used to coming to the Marquis Manor. It doesn't matter if you are uncomfortable; they will tell you in advance when they come."

The cousin was close to the Marquis Manor, so he still came.

"It should have been like this long ago." He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan picked up food and said: "It's been so long, how should I put it? I calculated that my second aunt coming to the Marquis Manor makes me uncomfortable. This has been dragging on for more than a year. I've told her more than once, but she always plays dumb every time. Regardless of whether I'm really possessed or falsely possessed, since we've all told her, she should avoid it. But every time she comes to the Marquis Manor to catch me, she's afraid that she won't see me if she comes. Like this time, if she tells me in advance, I won't blame her."

The Marchioness smoothed things over: "I told her not to come if there's nothing to do in the future."

He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan was angry. Didn't she say that last time? Isn't she here again this time? Always indulging the second aunt's family like this, but he saw that this second aunt was poisonous, very vicious. Why indulge her?

But this time the cousin told him in advance, so the Heir Apparent Anyuan couldn't complain, and he was angered by his mother's words again. Every time she said she wouldn't come, she wouldn't come, but when did she stop the second aunt from coming?

For the next few days, the Heir Apparent Anyuan was ill, his cold was very severe, and he had to go out to practice.

After several days, he still didn't get better, his headache intensified, and he was dizzy. He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan was anxious. He had never seen such a severe cold, and as the Heir Apparent of the Marquis Manor, he wasn't dragging it out.

He was better yesterday, but then his tooth started to ache, a disaster he couldn't escape.

Did he really have a tooth problem? No, it was just a toothache for no reason.

He He Shizi Apparent Anyuan believed Qin Lang's words deeply and felt that his second aunt really had a problem. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sickly. He felt hatred and was really annoyed.

If he could confirm that it was really this second aunt who was making trouble, he would kill her.

The servant also hated this second lady, hating her to the bone. No one knew better than him how uncomfortable the Heir Apparent was. At night, his head and teeth ached so much that he couldn't sleep. He He Shizi Apparent was strong and didn't look like he was really ill.

The master and servant shared a common hatred. The servant chattered and repeated the story, describing the matter roughly, and even gritted his teeth and said: "The second lady must have a problem. I've never seen such a bad person. When she doesn't come, our Heir Apparent is fine. When she comes, our Heir Apparent gets all kinds of illnesses. It was fine before, but now, without even seeing her, as long as she wanders around the Marquis Manor, our Heir Apparent is uncomfortable."

Qin Yan frowned as he listened. Hearing the servant's clear logic, it was hard not to suspect this second lady. But the talk of possession was mysterious, and it involved treating orphans and widows coldly, so it was a bit difficult to handle.

Everyone was standing by the teleportation array. Qin Lang asked Qin Bi: "Sister, can looking at things for people really increase cultivation?"

Qin Bi didn't answer. She was too lazy to talk about such nonsense. Qin Bi said: "Give me your Five Grains Abundant Cloud."

Qin Lang knew the answer. Looking at things for the Heir Apparent Anyuan could be the same as cultivation. Qin Xun also heard it, and Qin Yan was thoughtful. Listening to this, it meant that high cultivation could summon a Five Grains Abundant Cloud.

Qin Yan was tempted. He also wanted a Five Grains Abundant Cloud.

Don't think he didn't see it. The rainwater from the Five Grains Abundant Cloud was good for crops. Didn't he see that Qin Bi and Qin Lang's watermelon vines grew well? Small watermelons had already grown on Qin Bi's watermelon vines.

"Okay, I know." Qin Lang smiled and said to the Heir Apparent Anyuan's servant: "What does your Heir Apparent plan to do? If you have time, come over and I'll cast a spell for him? I can wait for him at home."

"Our Heir Apparent has no time today." The servant said: "Our Heir Apparent's illness is almost better, but the cousin of the second branch is getting engaged tomorrow, and the second lady will definitely come to the Marquis Manor. Our Heir Apparent is afraid, so he came to ask you for a trick."

What to do? Their Heir Apparent's illness had just gotten better, and if he came again like this, he couldn't stand it.

Qin Lang had no way and looked at Qin Bi.

Qin Bi asked the servant: "The cousin of the second branch is getting engaged. Does your Marquis Manor give money?"

"Yes." The servant was very respectful: "The third branch gives one hundred taels of silver."

The third branch had already given one hundred taels of silver, so the Prince Anyuan definitely couldn't give less than one hundred taels. From the servant, he learned that when the Heir Apparent Anyuan got engaged, the second branch only gave a few feet of cloth, worth less than two taels of silver.

Qin Bi, Qin Yan, and the others didn't speak. Was this how they interacted?

Qin Bi didn't quite understand human interaction and looked at Qin Yan. Qin Yan, Qin Xun, and Rong Yan all shook their heads. In this situation, giving fifty taels of silver was not a small amount, and giving one hundred taels was too much.

Thus, Qin Bi saw it. This mother and son of the second branch were a pet of the family, pushed by some kind of force, gathering everything in the hands of the family to this mother and son.

It was fine if there was no conflict, but this second aunt was too poisonous, poisonous to the point that the people around her couldn't get a good end. It was wrong for the Marquis Manor's family to indulge her.

Since that was the case, indulge her. Qin Bi didn't want to care.

The servant delivered the message and went back to report.

Qin Bi said a word to Lin Yao and followed Qin Yan and the others to the Qin Yan Hou Fu. The little bun Rong Yang also followed. He Zu returned to the Yan Guogong Fu, and Rong Yan went home first. He liked excitement and ran to the Qin Yan Hou Fu in a hurry.
