Chapter 413: Can Also Attract the Marquis Manor
Cui Shi didn't care anymore and let Qin He go.
Qin He and her younger sister went all the way to the First Branch's courtyard. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She was just ill, not dead, yet they didn't take her seriously. Qin He was about to explode with anger.
Who could Qin He go find? If not the Qin Yan Marquis's wife, then find the Qin Shizi.
This little matter didn't need the Qin Yan Marquis Manor to come forward; the Marquis's wife and the Qin Shizi could solve it. In Qin He's view, not distributing spiritual vegetables to her wasn't a small matter. However, Qin He was clear that she couldn't find the Qin Yan Marquis, this eldest uncle.
"Qin He," the Shizifei met Qin He in the courtyard with maids and nannies: "Are you here to find me?"
In the Marquis Manor, Qin He and the Shizifei had a good relationship.
Qin He came to the First Branch, and the Shizifei thought she was looking for her. The two of them opened a shop together, so they were closer. Now that Qin He was the Xue Wang Fu's Shizifei, her status had risen, and the Shizifei naturally had a better relationship with Qin He.
Qin He took a deep breath: "I'm looking for Eldest Aunt."
The Shizifei looked at Qin He's complexion: "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Qin He endured her anger: "I'm asking about the distribution of spiritual vegetables in the Marquis Manor."
The Shizifei understood. No spiritual vegetables were distributed to the Second Branch. She knew about this and had reminded the Shizi, but Qin Yan still didn't distribute spiritual vegetables to the Second Branch and Qin He.
Look, Qin He was dissatisfied. The Shizifei pondered and went into the main hall with Qin He.
The Qin Yan Marquis's wife was giving instructions to the nanny beside her. Winter had arrived, but it hadn't snowed yet. As the Marquis's wife, she had to arrange the charcoal and everything for the winter.
Qin He and the Shizifei came together. The Qin Yan Marquis's wife was surprised and blamed her: "Qin He, aren't you ill? Several aunts and I wanted to visit you at the Wang Fu, but we haven't gone yet. Are you better? You went out? Winter has just arrived, and people can't stand the cold. Quickly brew a pot of hot tea and hold it to warm your hands."
The maid went to brew new tea.
Qin He kept a straight face and couldn't squeeze out a smile: "Eldest Aunt, where is Eldest Cousin? I came to ask about the distribution of spiritual vegetables. Every branch has spiritual vegetables distributed, so why is there none for the Second Branch?"
Qin He was asking for the Second Branch, and also for herself. Why was there no share of spiritual vegetables for her?
Was her status not enough, or was her face not enough?
Although she was a concubine-born daughter, she had earned quite a bit of silver for the Marquis Manor, which could be considered hard work. She didn't care about the spiritual poultry ducks that Qin Yan and the others caught, as they weren't distributed anyway, and the Fifth Branch of the Marquis Manor didn't have any either.
But this time was different. Every branch had spiritual vegetables. Even one spiritual vegetable was a spiritual vegetable. It wasn't about its value—who hadn't eaten spiritual vegetables? Qin He didn't care about that, mainly because there were no spiritual vegetables for the Second Branch, which was too faceless.
The maid served tea, and the Qin Yan Marquis's wife picked up the teacup: "This......"
"Mother," the Shizifei felt that this handling was inappropriate, so she said: "Are there any spiritual vegetables left? It doesn't matter if you forgot. Since Qin He is here, distribute one to her now."
Who cared? Qin He secretly curled her lips. She wanted an explanation.
The Qin Yan Marquis's wife gave the Shizifei a faint glance. The Shizifei thought and thought. Did she say something wrong? No. Qin He wasn't an outsider, so just pretend she forgot to give Qin He a few spiritual vegetables.
Qin He could earn silver, and the relationship was getting closer. Being on good terms with Qin He had no disadvantages!
"I didn't come for spiritual vegetables," Qin He said righteously: "I am a disciple of the Immortal Sect, and the Xue Wang Fu doesn't lack spiritual vegetables. I just wanted to know why they weren't distributed to the Second Branch. Whenever I brought things back to the Marquis Manor, didn't everyone have a share? How come when it was time to distribute spiritual vegetables, there was none for our Second Branch? It's so heartbreaking."
At this point, Qin He threatened: "If it's done this way, in the future when I bring things back, should I only distribute them to the branches I have a good relationship with, and not distribute them to others?"
You've always done it that way! The Qin Yan Marquis's wife said: "Qin He, your eldest cousin is in the front courtyard. Go find your eldest cousin in the front courtyard to solve it. In the past, when distributing things, I didn't intervene much; it was all distributed by you young people. Go find your eldest cousin and ask what the situation is. There are many people in the front courtyard, and all the branches are together, so discuss it. What should be yours will definitely not be less."
She didn't drink the hot tea, and Qin He stood up to say goodbye.
The Shizifei hesitated and followed Qin He to the front courtyard.
"Madam," the nanny asked tentatively: "Will the Shizi be in a difficult position?"
The Qin Yan Marquis's wife held the teacup, took the lid, and brushed the tea leaves on the surface, blew lightly, took a small sip of tea, and said: "Don't worry, go over to the front courtyard in a while."
This matter had to be debated. The Qin Yan Marquis's wife planned to go to the front courtyard later.
Qin Yan and several brothers of the Marquis Manor were in the front courtyard parlor, discussing opening up wasteland in the savage land. Qin Tang and Qin Bi had opened up wasteland, and the gains were not small, so everyone was moved, and several young ladies in the Marquis Manor were also eager to try.
Qin Bi could grow spiritual vegetables, and they were all Marquis Manor young ladies, so how could they be any worse? They had heard that the reason why there were so many spiritual vegetables in Rong Shizi's fief was because the farmland was open, and a group of the Qin Yan Marquis Manor's fortune had rushed over. Just thinking about it made them excited. Perhaps, if they opened up wasteland and farmed, they could also attract the Marquis Manor's fortune.
The fallen Qin Yan Marquis Manor had produced two Wang Fu Shizifeis. As long as they were concubine-born, who wouldn't have some ideas! Perhaps the concubine-born of the Marquis Manor had some great destiny; it was just that Qin Bi and Qin He caught up with it.
As long as the good fortune arrived, perhaps they could also marry up.
The Marquis Manor had produced two concubine-born Wang Fu Shizifeis, which was too much of an encouragement to other concubine-born young ladies of the Marquis Manor. Their morale was high, and they were all secretly dreaming of being Shizifeis.
Being the mistress of a noble family was also possible.
Daring to covet being a concubine was for the legitimate daughters. Concubine-born daughters could be Shizifeis, so no one stipulated that this fortune belonged to the concubine-born of the Qin Yan Marquis Manor. Perhaps the legitimate daughters also had fortune on them.
The more they thought about it, the more possible it seemed. Everyone was excited in their hearts, but it didn't show on their faces.
Qin He and her younger sister arrived, and everyone looked over.
"Qin He," the sisters who had a good relationship waved at Qin He: "When did you come?"
Qin Jue asked with concern: "Is your illness better?"
"Just came from Eldest Aunt's," Qin He answered the questions of the sisters of the Marquis Manor. There was no need to ignore the legitimate brother. She looked so haggard, no matter how you looked at it, she wasn't better. Qin He said to Qin Yan: "Eldest Cousin, I came to ask about the distribution of spiritual vegetables in the manor. Every branch has spiritual vegetables distributed, so why is there none for the Second Branch?"
A stupid question. Qin Yan looked at Qin He. Was it necessary to ask this?
Qin Yan said: "Not everyone has spiritual vegetables."
Only a few people with good cultivation were distributed spiritual vegetables. Those who went to the fief to harvest spiritual vegetables were distributed the most. The Old Qin Yan Marquis and the Qin Yan Marquis were distributed the most, and the Fifth Branch only got two spicy chili peppers.
There were many people who didn't get spiritual vegetables, yet Qin He rushed over to ask.
"Shouldn't my father and legitimate brother be distributed spiritual vegetables?" Qin He interrogated: "Shouldn't I be distributed them?" ===== CHAPTER 414 =====
There were many people who didn't get a share of the spiritual vegetables, but Qin He was the one who rushed over in a hurry.
"Shouldn't my father and legitimate brother have been allotted spiritual vegetables?" Qin He questioned: "Shouldn't I have been allotted some?"
