Chapter 420

Lin Shi also said: "As a wife of an heir, killing her way to a restaurant for no reason would be laughed at."

Qin Lang nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Lin Shi.

Qin Lang felt that they were just gossiping about Qin He.

Taking a concubine back from a restaurant was unlikely. For Qin He to drag her sick body out of the manor for this would be too paranoid. As long as Heir Xue didn't want to take a concubine, it was absolutely impossible.

Hoping Heir Xue would take a concubine and him actually taking one were two different things.

A young lady from the Marquis Manor wouldn't be that jealous.

"Qin He is most afraid of her husband taking a concubine." Qin Bi smiled confidently. If it came to who understood Qin He best, no one could be clearer than her, Qin Bi, about what Qin He feared. If her husband took a concubine, Qin He's world would collapse. Qin Bi smiled: "If you don't believe me, just wait and see."

Jiang Shi leaned over: "A young lady from the Marquis Manor is not a shrew."

Qin Bi smiled contemptuously: "She's not much better than a shrew."

Jiang Shi was half-believing, and Qin Lang and Lin Shi were also unsure. Qin Bi's tone was too certain, as if she had determined that Qin He would definitely kill her way to the restaurant to find Heir Xue. Could a wife of an heir do such a thing???!!

Families of high status and nobility paid the most attention to face and reputation.

Qin Lang loved to watch the excitement, took a sip of tea, and hurriedly went to scout for news again.

Good heavens, just as Qin Lang left the Marquis Manor, the servant scouting for news came to report that Qin He had really dragged her illness to kill her way to the restaurant. Heir Xue wouldn't leave, and she wouldn't either, crying like rain.

Qin He disdained acting weak in front of men, but this time Qin He used it.

She was afraid, she was truly afraid. Qin He was very afraid that, just as she knew, after Heir Xue quarreled with her, another woman would take advantage of the situation. Qin He absolutely could not tolerate another woman by Heir Xue's side.

Heir Xue's expression was not good. He was an ancient man, after all. Qin He's nervousness and care for him, in Heir Xue's eyes, was a jealous behavior that made her unworthy of being a wife of an heir.

However, after all, she was the woman he favored, so Heir Xue still returned to the Xue Prince's Manor with Qin He.

The Xue Princess was furious. Before she could scold Qin He, Qin He fainted. She had dragged her sick body out of the manor time and time again, and was also shocked and angry, so her body couldn't hold up anymore.

Heir Xue hurriedly carried Qin He back to his courtyard and sent someone into the palace to invite an imperial physician.

Whatever anger, whatever dissatisfaction, all of Heir Xue's emotions turned into worry for Qin He. He waited nervously for the imperial physician to come and take Qin He's pulse. It wasn't any serious illness; it was just pent-up frustration.

Qin Lang got the news, was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly returned to the manor to tell Qin Bi.

After Qin Bi heard Qin Lang finish, in front of everyone, she couldn't help but gloat: "Is it really pent-up frustration?"

"Mm-hmm-hmm." Qin Lang nodded vigorously: "The imperial physician took her pulse and said Qin He thought too much, which damaged her heart and spirit. She needs to be open-minded in the future, otherwise, it's not good for her body."

Qin Lang repeated the words, and the men over there also noticed this side.

Qin Lang didn't lower his voice, and everyone heard that Qin He was sick. No one cared. Qin Tan was only surprised for a moment. Whether Qin He was sick or not, not many people in the third and fourth branches cared.

If one had to say they cared, the concubine-born daughters of the third and fourth branches actually had a good relationship with Qin He.

Unfortunately, none of them were in the living room.

What everyone didn't expect at all was that Qin Bi said: "Serves her right."

Qin Lang: "..."

Qin Tan: "..."

Qin Di and the legitimate sons: "..."

The He family, Jiang Shi, and Lin Shi: "..."

Rong Yan and Jiang Xu were stunned. Was the hatred that deep?

Qin Bi didn't hide her malice. She squinted and said: "When she harmed my lifespan, Heir He was an outsider. As a sister in the Marquis Manor, Qin He saw my heart was not in control of my spirit, yet she didn't take a step back. If she had persuaded Heir He not to marry me, she, Qin He, could have directly become the wife of the Heir of the Old Yan Guogong. She wanted to be the wife of the Heir, but was also afraid of death. All the benefits were hers, and she still acted with disdain and looked down on people. Today, she also damaged her heart and spirit. This simply serves her right. It also lets her taste the discomfort of being stifled in her heart with nowhere to vent."

So, if Qin He didn't deserve it, who did? It was Qin He who deserved it!

Everyone thought about it. Qin He's heart and spirit being damaged was her own doing, which was different from when Qin Bi's heart was not in control of her spirit. At that time, Qin Bi faced the power of the Old Yan Guogong's manor and was powerless.

She had to marry even if she didn't want to; Heir He was determined to marry.

Qin He was now upset because things weren't going her way. Now it was different from before; Qin He was stifled.

As elders, the He family, Qin Di, and Qin Tan shouldn't have indulged Qin Bi's gloating, but none of them stopped Qin Bi. Qin He's own doing was something the elders had long been unable to stand.

Jiang Xu and Rong Yan looked at each other. Was this wife of Heir Xue so unpopular in the third and fourth branches?

Jiang Shi and Lin Shi were all smiles, everyone was chatting and laughing, and the He family was also in a good mood. How stifled her child had been back then! Qin He's situation was nothing compared to that. Just watch, there's a long way to go.

Qin He didn't know that the third and fourth branches were happy. If she knew, she could be angered to death.

With Qin He sick, the Marquis Manor's visit to the Xue Prince's Manor should have been arranged. Originally, they thought Qin He could run to the Marquis Manor to nag today and could come to fight for spirit vegetables, so there shouldn't be a need to visit.

Now it was fine; she had too many thoughts and was seriously ill.

In the evening, the Qin Yan Marquis's wife called a few sisters-in-law to discuss: "How about we go to the Xue Prince's Manor tomorrow."

He He Shizi's wife said: "We younger generation will go too."

The fifth branch's wife nodded: "Fine."

Zhu Shi, however, said: "Go tomorrow? It's a bit close. Better to go in a few days."

"She's been sick for a while." The Qin Yan Marquis's wife curled her lips. She didn't know if this sister-in-law was intentional, but the date to visit Qin He wasn't close. The Qin Yan Marquis's wife said: "She left the manor today, and this is her being sick again, not just having fallen ill. Going to visit now isn't considered close."

"Yes." He He Shizi's wife truly cared about Qin He and said: "We are her maternal family, not outsiders. We can visit Qin He at the Xue Prince's Manor at any time. Going tomorrow is a bit late. If we don't go, the Xue Prince's Manor will talk, laughing at our Marquis Manor for not caring about a married woman."

The He family spoke: "Qin He lacks nothing. Why did she run here today for a few spirit vegetables? Now that she's sick, everyone has to worry. This child, even after getting married, doesn't put people at ease."

The Qin Yan Marquis's wife: "..."

He He Shizi's wife: "..."

He He Shizi's wife opened her mouth, wanting to say a few good words for Qin He. Qin He wasn't such an unreasonable person.

The Qin Yan Marquis's wife held her teacup and scanned the Heir's wife lightly. He He Shizi's wife didn't speak and swallowed her words back. She blinked. What did her mother-in-law mean?!

Qin He could earn silver, so it was nothing for her to say a few words for Qin He! She wasn't arguing, and the fourth aunt wasn't unhappy. He He Shizi's wife didn't feel she could make the fourth aunt unhappy for Qin He.

It wasn't worth it, but it was still okay to patch things up for Qin He.
