Chapter 564: Not Spirit Melon Seeds

~8 min read 1,551 words

Fubao stared at the little milk bun eating, feeling incredibly gluttonous.

Heir Xue couldn't bear to watch. Normally, cultivation in this Immortal Cultivation World was not easy, and it was not unreasonable for cultivators to covet spirit food; it wasn't shameful. However, Fubao's upbringing had just been pointed out by scholars, and the scholars and strategists had scolded the Xue Prince and Xue Princess so much that they had no face to go out.

Being gluttonous again was unjustifiable.

"Fubao," Heir Xue said, holding his legitimate son. "Go play with your cousins."

Heir Xue truly felt he had no face. The Xue Prince Manor wasn't lacking in food or drink for Fubao, and Fubao's food, clothing, and expenses were the best. How could she still have such a gluttonous look when seeing food?

How was this like a First-Rank Little Junzhu of the Xue Prince Manor? Even children from ordinary families weren't this gluttonous.

Fubao twisted her body: "I won't go, I want to eat spirit melon seeds."

Heir Xue's face darkened. Fubao glanced at him and ran to find Qin He; Mother would protect her.

Heir Rong held the little milk bun and gave a mocking smile. He wasn't Heir He, who had extra gentleness for other people's children. Let alone Fubao, even if it were the children of the Rong Prince's concubines, his nephews and nieces, Heir Rong had no feelings for them.

Expecting him to share Rong Chi's spirit melon seeds with Fubao? Keep dreaming.

The little milk bun turned his head, looking up at Heir Rong with his small head, his voice milky: "She wants to eat spirit melon seeds."

"Hmm." Heir Rong's indifferent expression faded, and he lowered his head to look at the little guy, his eyes full of doting. Heir Rong responded, his tone gentle as he said to the little milk bun: "She's gluttonous, you aren't."

At this age, the little milk bun had to be taught slowly.

If a child was well-behaved, one shouldn't be stingy with praise.

The little milk bun was a little foodie and younger than Fubao, but the little milk bun was very well-bred; there was no such thing as asking others for things. This bad habit must absolutely not be allowed.

Heir Xue: "..."

He had no face; Fubao couldn't even compare to a child of a few months.

Heir Xue's legitimate son lowered his head, not looking at Rong Chi eating spirit melon seeds. The child already knew what it was to be ashamed. Spirit melon seeds were spirit food and beneficial to cultivators; if others didn't give them, one couldn't ask for them.

The little milk bun nodded: "I'm not gluttonous."

What was Rong Chi gluttonous for? Since birth, Heir Rong wouldn't let him lack anything he wanted to eat. The little milk bun could be said to be pampered and held in the palm of Heir Rong's hand, and the child's upbringing was also good.

Heir Rong was amused and peeled spirit melon seeds for him, finding the little milk bun more precious the more he looked at him.

Fubao went to find Qin He, making a fuss about wanting to eat spirit melon seeds: "Mother, I want to eat spirit melon seeds, Rong Chi has spirit melon seeds to eat."

Qin He didn't have spirit melon seeds and cursed Heir He, that scumbag, in her heart. Rong Chi's spirit melon seeds must have been given by Heir He; those should have been things for her child! Both luck and fortune had been snatched away by Qin Bi's child.

Qin He hated in secret, thinking Qin Bi was pregnant with Rong Yang just to snatch her fortune and luck. The more she thought, the angrier she became, feeling Qin Bi was a vicious female supporting character who must be coveting her maxed-out luck stats and fortune.

As long as she asked for something from the Rong Prince Manor, it would be fine. However, Qin He glanced at Heir Rong; she also wanted face. She had asked Heir Rong for things a few times, and Heir Rong didn't give them.

How could Qin He have the face to ask again? It would make her look like she had no face at all.

She, Qin He, had traveled through time with a golden finger system and was a veritable standard for a great female lead in immortal cultivation; she still had her pride. If others didn't give Fubao things, she wouldn't lick her face to ask.

However, Qin He wasn't reconciled. She guessed that Rong Chi's spirit melon seeds must have been given by Heir He.

Heir He's things should all be for her child.

Qin He hated to death in her heart. At this moment, the banquet hadn't started yet. Qin He went to the men's side and sat next to Heir Xue. Fubao didn't follow; she knew her mother would find a way to ask for spirit food for her.

Several Heirs were talking about saving up family assets in the spring. Qin He had no heart to listen. First, she pretended to talk to the legitimate son Heir Xue was holding. The child was very well-behaved, and the child was also happy that Qin He came to accompany him.

"Are those spirit melon seeds Rong Chi is eating?" Qin He asked in surprise.

He He Shizi of Qin and the others all looked over. The little milk bun Rong Chi reached out his small hand to grab melon seed kernels from Heir Rong's hand, his voice milky: "Not, not spirit melon seeds."

Qin He: "..."

She wanted to say he was lying.

However, Qin He feared Heir Rong and dared not speak about Rong Chi.

"The yield of spirit melon seeds is very low, and the Immortal Sect doesn't produce many spirit melon seeds every year." Qin He pretended to be very knowledgeable. After all, besides the several Heirs, only she had insight, and she was also an Immortal Sect disciple. Qin He asked the little milk bun gently: "Rong Chi, who gave you the spirit melon seeds?!"

The little milk bun was very guarded: "Mine."

Qin He maintained a gentle smile on her face: "Auntie won't eat yours."

The little milk bun nestled in Heir Rong's arms, pinched melon seed kernels from Heir Rong's palm, put them in his mouth to eat, and also looked at Qin He defensively. He was a clever cub and didn't believe she wouldn't eat his.

Rong Chi had heard from his older brother and the little Imperial Prince that Fubao and her mother both liked to take people's things for free.

Spirit melon seeds were so delicious; the little milk bun wouldn't let others eat them.

"Who gave you the spirit melon seeds?" Qin He asked again, hoping it wasn't Heir He, that scumbag.

If it were spirit melon seeds given by Heir He, Qin He would never forgive Heir He.

"Mine!" The little milk bun said.

So stupid, Qin He was impatient in her heart.

Heir Rong narrowed his eyes and had to speak, looking down at Qin He: "Qin He, who do you think gave the spirit melon seeds to the little heir of my Rong Prince Manor?"

"This..." Qin He was speechless.

The little milk bun added: "Mine!"

Qin He didn't dare to make Heir Rong unhappy and went to the side awkwardly. Heir Xue probably guessed why Qin He asked this; Qin He must have guessed that it was spirit melon seeds given by Heir He.

"Did Heir He give them?" Heir Xue asked Heir Rong. Without waiting for Heir Rong to answer, Heir Xue continued happily: "If Heir He gave them, I'll ask for some spirit melon seeds for the child to eat later."

Heir Rong didn't stop him: "Go ask then."

When the banquet in the front courtyard of the Qin Yan Marquis Manor was set, the Marquis of Qin Yan's wife sent someone to invite several sisters-in-law over. The Second Madam, Third Madam, as well as Lady He and the Fifth Madam all brought their children to the main hall in the front courtyard.

Qin Lang held Rong Yang, and Heir Rong beckoned, so Qin Lang held Rong Yang over.

Qin He was bound to eat at the same table as the Heirs. She was a great female lead who had traveled through time and cultivated immortality; she was different from the women of Great Yan, and different from the women in the back courtyard who fought for favor.

Qin He turned her head and saw Rong Yang also eating spirit melon seeds.

Qin He's expression froze. It must be spirit melon seeds given by Heir He. Fubao was in her arms, pouting and whispering: "Rong Yang is also eating spirit melon seeds, Mother, I want to eat too."

Someone heard Fubao speaking and acted as if they hadn't heard.

Spirit melon seeds were not easy to grow in the Immortal Cultivation World; they were planted once a year, and the yield was very low. In the Immortal Cultivation World, a handful of spirit melon seeds was incredibly expensive. Fubao wanted to eat them, but couldn't get them.

As for Rong Yang and Rong Chi having spirit melon seeds to eat? Powerful officials were amazing. ===== CHAPTER 565 =====
