Qin Yan said, \"Rong Juan and Rong Chi are eating. You're shuffling around, disturbing the children while they eat. Go play somewhere else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wouldn't do to say outright that young ladies of a marquis's household must be reserved when receiving guests; that was too blunt. As Qin Yan, the heir of Hou Fu, every word and deed of Qin Yan must uphold the family's dignity; a gentle reminder was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls exchanged glances and retreated to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a perfect chance to get close to He He Shizi, yet the eldest cousin actually stopped them. The girls pouted, resentful in their hearts. He He Shizi hadn't even taken a principal wife yet. If Qin He and Qin Bi could marry up, why couldn't they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the illegitimate daughters of Hou Fu; their goal was to become the Heir's Wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great Yan had only two powerful ministers' heirs; becoming the Heir's Wife of Yan Guogong Fu would do too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yan glanced at his younger sisters. Were they trying to court death? Had they forgotten He He Shizi's fate of killing his wives and leaving him childless? Right, Rong Juan had married Qin Bi without incident, and Qin Bi had been fine when He He Shizi married. They were banking on luck, gambling with fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yan did not stop his sisters from marrying up, but he could not let them compromise the family's dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Bi and Qin He had married so well that all the young ladies of Hou Fu now wanted to marry up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yan sighed. How could they compare? Qin Bi had beauty, did not cling to status, and had her own admirable qualities. Qin He was sharp-minded, able to devise many strange and wonderful things to earn silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the other sisters of Hou Fu? It depended on their fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Hou Fu produced another powerful minister's Heir's Wife, it wouldn't be a bad thing; Qin Yan would welcome it. But now, compared to before Qin Bi and Qin He married, there was less urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly, He He Shizi had no such intention. Qin Yan could not shamelessly match a sister to He He Shizi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back when Qin Bi and He He Shizi divorced, Hou Fu and Yan Guogong Fu had nearly fallen out completely. Fortunately, Qin Bi was a good person, remembering that Hou Fu had torn up relations with Yan Guogong Fu for her sake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue He Shizi, having seen countless women scheme over marriages, held his tea bowl and smiled. \"Qin He Shizi, several young ladies of Hou Fu are discussing marriage, aren't they? Rong He Shizi's marriage went smoothly, so fate should pose no problem. Yan Guogong Fu still lacks an Heir's Wife.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yan looked at He He Shizi. Qin Lang frowned. Rong Juan took a peeled sweet potato and ate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He He Shizi stopped feeding the little bun. He had eaten enough. Turning his head, he said, \"Xue He Shizi, my affairs need not concern you. Just raise your own child well, so you don't keep thinking of me whenever something comes up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue He Shizi gave an awkward smile. \"Our two families are close; that's why I think of you when I have matters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not entirely idle either. Matters I can handle myself need not involve me.\" He He Shizi said, \"I have children to raise too. One Rong Juan is already enough, not to mention Rong Chi. I have no surplus resources to distribute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yan could not respond. Qin Jue's heart tightened. This meant...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really wouldn't raise the lucky treasure anymore???!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not raising the lucky treasure was fine, but the main issue was whether Qin He still held any weight in He He Shizi's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Qin He held no weight in He He Shizi's heart, the Second Branch would gain nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Lang, however, could not suppress his smile. Xue He Shizi and He He Shizi were friends, acting like the best of brothers. \"You're willing to raise an extra Rong Chi, yet you care about the lucky treasure and her younger brother? He He Shizi's family is vast and wealthy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Jue's heart lifted. He He Shizi gave a faint, cold smile. \"My Rong Juan was not by my side since childhood. Everything that was his was given to the lucky treasure. Xue He Shizi, are you still not satisfied? That child, Rong Juan, was originally mine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those words were heavy. Xue He Shizi dropped his smile and laughed it off. \"I was joking. The lucky treasure has already enjoyed many benefits. She is a good child; everyone remembers that. She even said she would treat Rong Juan well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young prince, full and satisfied, grabbed a handful of roasted melon seeds from the side hall and came to the main hall. Hearing this, the child pouted. Treat Rong Juan well? Don't make me laugh. Rong Juan wouldn't even bother glancing at the lucky treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young prince found it strange; Rong Juan hated the lucky treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the little bun was sleepy, He He Shizi stopped wasting words with Xue He Shizi. Qin Yan glanced at the child in He He Shizi's arms and kept quiet. Soon, the little bun fell asleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He He Shizi could not leave now. The winter air was dry and cold; a sleeping child could easily catch a chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Lang set down Rong Juan and picked up the little bun. He He Shizi stood, took the small blanket and cape he had brought, and wrapped Qin Lang and the child tightly. The young prince and Rong Juan followed as Qin Lang carried the child out of the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir's Wife said, \"There is a small bed in the side hall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too noisy,\" Qin Lang said. \"He won't sleep soundly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Lang carried the younger child, with the young prince and Rong Juan following. Behind them, the children of the Fourth Branch came rushing out of the side hall in a flurry. The young prince was very careful with the children; he even checked whether the little bun's tiny feet were covered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When children are carried by adults, their feet are easily chilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Qin Lang returned with the child, Jiang Shi and Lin Shi hurried to make the bed. The child was too young, and he was Rong He Shizi's favorite; everyone was extremely careful, making the bedding warm and cozy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Lang set the child down. Jiang Shi gently covered him with the quilt. The young prince also pulled at the blanket, fluffing the bedding to ensure it wouldn't press down on the lucky treasure's twenty points of fortune and luck in Great Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Shi also loved her grandson and had intended to sit nearby to keep the child company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, the young prince sat by the bed and refused to leave; he insisted on watching the child sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Shi: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very well. He Shi and everyone else went to the outer room. Qin Di and his two legitimate sons examined the blueprints for expanding the courtyard in the main hall. Rong Juan went to the bedroom for a quick look, while the young prince stayed right beside Rong Chi, never leaving his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Juan said softly, \"Young Prince Brother, I am going to the courtyard where Mother lives. The Fourth Branch is building a courtyard, and I need to pack some things for Mother. If my younger brother wakes, send someone to fetch me. Do not take him out immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young prince nodded. \"Go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Juan went out and informed He Shi. Qin Lang accompanied Rong Juan to Qin Bi's courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Han was already packing. Seeing Rong Juan and Qin Lang arrive, Qin Han deliberately hid inside the room to avoid greeting them. She was waiting for Rong Juan to come see her, his aunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Juan and Qin Lang went upstairs. The child showed no intention of acknowledging her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong He Shizi had told Rong Juan that aside from his grandfather and these elders, he need not pay attention to anyone else. Aunts and such had only had an average relationship with his mother before; there was no need for the child to meet any aunts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the bedroom, Qin Lang asked, \"What do you want to pack?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rong Juan instead took out a summoning artifact and ran to the bedside to play. The child liked staying in the place where his mother lived. He did nothing special; he just felt safe there and could do whatever he wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After playing enough, Rong Juan rolled up his sleeves and carefully arranged the books with his chubby little hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mother loved books very much,\" Rong Juan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Lang nodded. \"He He Shizi gave your mother many books back then. Since she loved them, they should not be returned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Giving books doesn't mean feeding her,\" Rong Juan said. \"They didn't even give silver.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1513,"2026-06-11T21:11:31.900Z",1,"Qwen3.5 122B","cc48b8bc0bb887ace7b096e7e24653c4e4f590122b020b09489537c89651418e","transmigrated-to-a-wife-prosperous-husband-noble-chapter-436","transmigrated-to-a-wife-prosperous-husband-noble-chapter-434",596,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigrated-to-a-wife-prosperous-husband-noble-cover.jpg"]
