Chapter 452: What If They Cannot Grow Spirit Vegetables?

~8 min read 1,549 words

The soil is dry earth, lacking moisture.

Fortunately, there was plenty of snow scooped up; otherwise, it would not have been enough.

The young prince returned to the palace and brought a packet of chili seeds to Rong Juan. The chili spirit vegetables grown in the Rong Prince's residence were too delicious; the young prince also wanted to grow spirit vegetables, and the Great Yan Emperor shared this sentiment.

At this moment, the Qin Heir and Qin Lang and Qin Xun were also busy with the soil.

Qin He went to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence, and her legitimate sister Qin Yuan immediately told her: "The eldest cousins are all busy planting vegetables. I heard the snow scooped up by Qin Lang carried the fortune of our Qin Yan Marquis's residence, so it should be possible to grow spirit vegetables."

Qin He thought for a moment and felt she could not be outdone by Qin Bi.

Qin He went to the Heir's courtyard to find Qin Yan. Qin Yan was personally preparing the soil, waiting for the snow to melt. The Heir's wife had tried several times to ask for some snow water for planting, but Qin Yan was helpless; he had obtained it from Qin Lang himself.

As soon as Qin He arrived and entered the room, she saw the planting pots: "Eldest cousin, are you going to plant vegetables?"

Qin Yan nodded: "Just trying it out."

"I'll give you a pot of the snow I summoned," Qin He offered eagerly.

She was a disciple of the Immortal Sect with a high cultivation base; she should be valued by the Marquis's residence.

Besides, she, Qin He, had married into a Prince's residence, a marriage of high status.

Who would not give her a little face?

Qin Yan's hand holding the small hoe paused slightly. He turned to look at Qin He: "No need. I am just trying to plant vegetables. Qin Lang scooped up snow and shared a portion with me."

Qin He said in a low voice: "The snow I summoned carries fortune."

Qin Yan: "..."

Staring at Qin He for a few seconds, Qin Yan withdrew his gaze. No wonder the fortune of the Qin Yan Marquis's residence was different from others, even incomprehensible to the Immortal Sect. Look, the snow summoned by one person after another carried fortune.

"Give it to your eldest aunt," Qin Yan said. "My mother saw me planting vegetables and expressed a desire to plant as well. Unfortunately, there is no rain or snow. Since the snow you summoned also carries fortune, give it to your eldest aunt."

"Planting vegetables requires a lot of water." Qin He did not want to give it to the Qin Yan Marquis's wife: "How much did Qin Lang share with you? It certainly won't be enough. Let me bring you a pot of the scooped snow."

Qin Yan smiled indifferently: "Rain or snow summoned by different summoning artifacts should not be mixed. This is my first time growing spirit vegetables; I hope to grow spirit vegetables."

Qin He immediately said: "The rain or snow I summoned is definitely better. I am a disciple of the Immortal Sect."

"That is truly arrogant," Qin Yan said. "Then we definitely cannot mix them. If spirit vegetables are grown, whose summoned rain or snow will be considered better? Qin He, you wouldn't want others to steal your credit, would you?"

Qin He twisted her body, showing displeasure: "I dislike people who steal credit the most."

Yes, Qin Yan had always thought so. Qin He was a disciple of the Immortal Sect, with a cultivation base that was top-notch among the younger generation. She was also quite skilled at making money. Although she was born of a concubine, she was very aloof.

However, it was meaningless every time she got entangled with Qin Bi.

Qin Bi had never once wanted to mix with Qin He.

After many such instances, Qin Yan also wanted to keep Qin Bi's and Qin He's things separate. As long as they didn't mix, credit belonged to whoever earned it. Yet, when it came to scooping snow to plant vegetables, Qin He still came over.

"I do not lack rain or snow," Qin Yan said. "Since it carries fortune, grow vegetables yourself."

"How can you not lack it?" Qin He doubted. In this cultivation world, rain and snow were scarce; who would not lack them? "Don't be polite with me," Qin He said. "I think of the best things for our Marquis's residence."

"Qin Yuan, Qin Jue, and the others have nothing to do." Qin He ignored the people wanting rain or snow. Qin Yan pointed her out: "There are also Qin Yan, Qin Cui, and Qin Han. You can give the scooped snow to them."

Qin He thought for a moment: "They do not have as good fortune as you, Eldest Cousin. You are the Qin Heir; what fortune do they have compared to yours? They might not be able to grow spirit vegetables. If I give them rain or snow carrying fortune and they only grow ordinary vegetables, it will make me look incompetent."

Qin Yan: "..."

She was counting on him, so she only wanted to give it to him.

That was fine. The Qin Heir was not someone incapable of solving problems. He suggested: "Give it to your eldest uncle, or to Grandfather. The fortune of the Marquis's residence on them is stronger than mine."

Qin He did not want to give the rain or snow to others. Qin Yan gave her a faint look; such persistence was wrong. Next, Qin Yan ignored Qin He. Qin He hesitated and did not leave.

"Qin Han can be considered your best sister; your relationship is good," Qin Yan said sincerely. "In my opinion, if the rain or snow you summoned carries fortune, it should be given to Qin Han. Qin Han does not want her husband and child to undergo trials in the small space of the Demon Beast Realm due to a lack of cultivation resources. If you give her the rain or snow, Qin Han will surely be grateful to you."

Qin He hesitated, feeling that Qin Han's husband had bad fortune: "If I give it to Qin Han, and they cannot grow spirit vegetables?"

Qin Yan could not help but feel angry: "If they cannot grow spirit vegetables, does that mean they should blame me?"

Qin He pouted: "That is not what I meant."

Whether that was what she meant or not made no difference. Qin Yan was not very free either. Next, he ignored Qin He. Qin He stood there awkwardly and had to leave, feeling depressed all the way back to the Second Courtyard.

If the Qin Heir used the rain or snow she summoned to plant vegetables, he would definitely grow spirit vegetables.

She was a step too late; the Qin Heir had already used the rain or snow summoned by the Rong Prince's residence. Qin He could not stop Qin Yan, nor could she force her summoned rain or snow on him. Just thinking about it made her feel bad.

Qin He returned to the Second Courtyard and told her legitimate sister.

Her legitimate sister, Qin Yuan, hesitated. Qin He looked at her, and Qin Yuan said: "Sister, does the rain or snow you summoned really carry fortune?"

Qin He affirmed: "Of course."

"Give it to me," Qin Yuan said. "I will plant it."

Qin He did not want to give it to Qin Yuan at all. She stammered: "I am worried you won't plant it well."

Qin Yuan immediately said: "I will plant it very carefully."

Qin He could not find a reason to refuse. Qin Yuan wanted it so much. If she refused too obviously, Qin Yuan would be unhappy. This was a good little follower. Qin He still relied on her legitimate mother and could not make her legitimate sister, Qin Yuan, unhappy.

"Then alright." Qin He ordered someone to go to the Xue Prince's residence to move a pot of scooped rain or snow. As the guard left, Qin He said: "Qin Yuan, I am worried you won't plant it well. Just as Mother said, you are impetuous and cannot calm your mind."

Qin Yuan happily said: "I will plant it well."

Qin He pouted. Even if she planted it well, it was not as good as having fortune. In the entire Marquis's residence, only the Qin Heir had strong fortune. Even ordinary rainwater, in the hands of the Qin Heir, could grow spirit vegetables.

"System," Qin He asked in her mind. "What is Qin Yuan's fortune like?"

The System said: "It is okay. Her luck value is not low."

Only then did Qin He feel less depressed. She did not stay long in the Marquis's residence and got up to return to the Xue Prince's residence.

Fu Bao was playing with pearl flowers. The little girl loved beauty. Qin He said: "Fu Bao, go to the palace and ask your little prince brother for rain or snow to grow spirit vegetables. You have good fortune; you will definitely be able to grow spirit vegetables."

Fu Bao listened to Qin He, put down the pearl flowers, and went to find the Xue Prince.
