Chapter 537: Just a Little Money-Grubber

~8 min read 1,568 words

It can be said that everyone who teamed up with Qin Tan this time gained a great deal.

Each family rejoiced, eating spiritual food.

On the first day back, one naturally rewards oneself; family members can also share a good meal. Among these families, the cultivation great clans are extravagant; the Su Guogong Fu dines with great gusto.

They are all foodies!

The Rong Wang Fu is even more so, for no other reason than that the two young Shizis of the Rong Wang Fu are the most precious.

What about the claim that eating spiritual food regularly benefits cultivation? Qin Bi dotes on her children; as long as Rong Yang and Rong Chi like to eat it, she lets them eat it. The Rong He Shizi does not spoil his children, but in several past lives he had a fate of losing his wives and having no children.

In this life, having children, the Rong He Shizi naturally regards them as treasures.

Besides, who did the little milk bun take after? After eating his fill, he also put a few small sweet radishes into his little pouch. They were washed; whenever he wanted one, he would take one and eat it. The little fellow could already walk unsteadily.

The little milk bun held onto the doorframe, wanting to go out. The young prince ran over: "Rong Chi, it is night. What are you going to do? Play inside the room."

"Go to the storehouse," the little milk bun said.

"What are you going to do at the storehouse?" the young prince would not let him go.

The little milk bun insisted on going. The young prince could not make the decision, so the Rong He Shizi carried the little milk bun and Rong Yang to the storehouse. The young prince followed along. What on earth would they do at the storehouse at night?!

What for? The little milk bun was inspecting his territory.

"Mine," the little milk bun pointed at the spiritual food and said.

The young prince: "..."

The Rong He Shizi: "..."

"Yours," the Rong He Shizi said. "Also Rong Yang's."

The little milk bun did not mind that his older brother had a share. He refused to be held, got down on the ground, and wobbled over to look at the basket, checking how much of his assets he had. He was simply a little money-grubber. Rong Yang also joined in the inspection.

The young prince: "Who does he take after?"

The Rong He Shizi: "..." "Qin Lang."

The young prince said: "Truly a money-grubber."

The two children were indeed money-grubbers. In the past, Rong Yang, as the elder brother, would sometimes stop the little milk bun. This time, when inspecting the family assets, Rong Yang also approved. The two little buns watched carefully, staring at the Rong He Shizi as he closed the storehouse door.

The Rong He Shizi picked up the two little buns. Rong Chi, in a milky voice, said: "Mine."

The Rong He Shizi: "..."

"Yours," the Rong He Shizi said, somewhat grumpily.

Thinking of his own assets, the little milk bun laughed gaily in surprise, very happy. Rong Yang also laughed. Seeing this, the young prince became happy too. A child who is loved lives without worry.

The Rong He Shizi carried the children back to the inner courtyard and said to the young prince: "No need to look after the children anymore."

The young prince ran off to play. He was a half-grown boy and was hungry again. He ran to the kitchen, picked up some leftover river snails, and went to the stove in the main hall to pick out the snail meat to eat.

There was probably about a jin of chili stir-fried river snails. The young prince decided to eat them all.

Otherwise, the craving would keep him awake at night.

He poked out a piece of snail meat and put it in his mouth. Spicy and fragrant, absolutely delicious.

Return to the palace? The young prince did not want to go back. Where in the palace could one eat as well as when looking after children at the Rong Wang Fu? Whenever there was something delicious in the palace, Fu Bao would run over to watch. She was a child born with two auspicious clouds.

There was no choice; one had to let her eat.

The young prince sighed. Eating one chili stir-fried river snail improved his mood.

In the He Shizi's bedroom, while the Rong He Shizi was undressing Rong Yang's small robe, the little milk bun Rong Chi played with his own little feet. He lost his balance and rolled over to Qin Bi's side. The Rong He Shizi quickly picked him up and carried him away.

Qin Bi opened her eyes. The Rong He Shizi said: "You sleep."

The little milk bun's eyes lit up: "Get up and play."

Qin Bi was about to get up. Rong Juan said: "Ignore him."

Rong Juan quickly undressed the little milk bun Rong Chi, tossed him into the quilt. Rong Yang also got into the quilt and whispered to the little milk bun Rong Chi not to disturb Qin Bi's sleep.

Only then did the little milk bun settle down.

Qin Bi lay back down and fell asleep shortly after. The Rong He Shizi sat by the bedside watching his wife and children. Only then did the maids and nannies have the chance to approach the bedside, place the young He Shizi's shoes neatly, tidy up the things the children had thrown about, and withdraw.

With the Rong He Shizi keeping watch, the little milk bun stopped fussing and fell asleep quickly.

Rong Yang also slept soundly. The Rong He Shizi silently accompanied them. The little milk bun kicked off the quilt. The Rong He Shizi reached out and tucked the quilt in for him. After a moment, the Rong He Shizi stood up and went to the study to meet with his advisors.

Qin Bi slept until the next day, then got up to play with the children.

Spiritual sweet potatoes were roasting on the stove. When they were done, Qin Bi peeled one and ate it. It was very mealy, the kind that crumbles into dust. Qin Bi was delighted; she loved eating this kind of mealy spiritual sweet potato.

Qin Bi ate, and Rong Yang and Rong Chi ate too. The young prince accompanied them.

The Rong He Shizi came over. Qin Bi asked: "Have the beast skins of the Flame Demonic Beasts been prepared?"

Seeing that she had rested well and looked healthy, the Rong He Shizi said: "Yes."

The Rong He Shizi called the young prince to leave. Shortly after, the young prince brought five-colored Flame Demonic Beast skins. They were all from high-grade demonic beasts; the fur color was excellent, and the hair was still soft.

Qin Bi took the beast skins to choose colors. The young prince ran off to play. As long as the Rong Shizifei was watching the children, he could play.

The two little buns also chose. They touched one: "So warm."

"What color beast skins do you like?" Qin Bi asked.

Rong Yang said: "Black."

Rong Chi: "Pink. Warm."

Qin Bi thought the children were cute and deliberately teased them: "Rong Yang, I will make a pink one for you. Rong Chi, a black one."

Rong Yang: "..."

Rong Chi: "..."

The two little buns were stunned.

"I want pink," the little milk bun emphasized.

Rong Yang also said: "I want the black one."

Qin Bi gave the black-colored flame beast hide to Rong Juan, and the pink one to Rong Yuan; she even said, "Make a pink robe for Rong Yuan and a black small robe for Rong Juan."

Rong Yuan was fine, but the little milk bun refused, standing up from the small stool.

The child wobbled toward the door: "I'll go tell Father; his wife is bad."

Dare to speak ill of her? Qin Bi said to Rong Yuan, "Catch him for me."

Rong Yuan ran over and grabbed Rong Juan.

Rong Juan was strong, and Rong Yuan was strong too; held by Rong Yuan, Qin Bi joined in, and together they clumsily lifted the little milk bun, tossed him onto the small bed, and Qin Bi and Rong Yuan began to tickle him.

It was just play, but the little one squealed with laughter as they tickled him.

"Still going to tell your Father and complain?" Qin Bi asked.

"I won't complain anymore," Rong Juan said in his little milk voice, so cute.

Qin Bi loved the two little ones very much; they played happily, and Qin Bi joined in the fun with the children. Rong Juan loved the liveliness. After playing for a while, Qin Bi took out more flame beast hides, considering making a small heir's robe.

"Do you want little boots?" Qin Bi asked.

"Yes," Rong Yuan nodded.

"Yes," Rong Juan also said.

Qin Bi had selected the flame beast hides, planning to have He Shi cut them later. Rong Yuan and Rong Juan sat on the small bed, pawing at the colorful flame beast hides.

Qin Bi grabbed some sweet radishes, shared them with the children to eat, and they discussed what to have for lunch.

Qin Bi was happy, and the little bun was happy too; their laughter could be heard throughout the courtyard.
