Chapter 565: It Was He He Shizi Who Bought the Spirit Melon Seeds

The Great Yan has only two powerful Marquis heirs: Rong Juan is Rong Chi's father, and He He Shizi is Rong Yang's father.

Both powerful Marquis heirs have fates that harm wives and leave them childless; since they finally have children, getting a few spirit melon seeds from the Immortal Sect is possible. Whether it is Rong He Shizi or He He Shizi, both have the ability.

With He He Shizi present, perhaps out of regard for his past feelings for Qin He, he might give Qin He's child a spirit melon seed to eat.

Rong He Shizi? Qin Yan thought that if Qin He had the guts, she could try.

In Qin Yan's opinion, Qin He would be best not to open her mouth on this matter and maintain some dignity.

Rong He Shizi wears fine clothes and rides a furious horse; he is cold, sharp, and handsome, yet also has a heart of iron and stone. Such a man keeps nothing in his heart. Now that he has Rong Yang, Rong He Shizi protects him as if he were his own eyeball.

Sharing Rong Yang's spirit melon seeds? Try it. Qin Yan is also very curious to see how powerful Qin He's max-level luck value truly is.

Qin He already asked for them before, and it didn't work. In Qin Yan's view, if Qin He cares about her reputation, she should not ask Rong He Shizi for anything, because there is no reason for Qin He to succeed in getting them.

"Why did you only just arrive?" Rong He Shizi took Rong Yang, holding two children in his arms.

Rong Yang handed a spirit melon seed from his hand to Rong He Shizi; he couldn't crack it open, his small teeth simply couldn't bite through it. Rong He Shizi was obviously used to it; he took the spirit melon seed and easily peeled it open.

Rong Yang put it in his mouth and ate it: "I was with Mother."

Upon hearing this, the little milk bun turned his head to look for Qin Bi at the banquet.

Rong He Shizi placed Rong Yang on a chair: "I will take Rong Chi to find your mother."

Rong Yang sat obediently: "Okay."

Rong Yang had Qin Lang accompanying him, and the Marquis Heir was also at this table. Rong He Shizi held the younger child and stepped forward to find Qin Bi. Qin Bi turned her head, saw him, stood up, and went over to take the little milk bun.

Rong He Shizi knew Qin Bi spoiled children and instructed: "Do not let him eat too much."

Qin Bi nodded. The little milk bun said: "I am full."

I won't eat anymore.

Rong He Shizi believed his nonsense. The little fellow was a glutton; with spiritual food at home, he wouldn't go to the Great Yan Guogong Fu that he longed for. Could this be an ordinary glutton? Even when full, he could still eat.

Rong He Shizi took two spirit fruits and gave them to Qin Bi: "One for each of you."

The little milk bun poked his head out: "Let me choose."

Qin Bi laughed. Not to mention how much Rong He Shizi doted on the little milk bun. Rong Yang was at the main table, and Rong Juan had also put peeled spirit melon seeds into the little milk bun's pocket. The young ladies of the Marquis Fu who had reached the age for marriage looked on with great envy.

Such a handsome and powerful Marquis heir; even marrying him as a concubine would be acceptable.

Before, they thought Rong He Shizi's status was noble and unattainable, but if Qin Bi could marry him, why couldn't they? They had just reached the age for marriage, young and beautiful, qualities Qin Bi could not match.

If they couldn't compare to Qin He, could they not compare to Qin Bi?

At the main table, while Rong He Shizi was away, Qin He quickly smiled at Rong Yang and said: "Rong Yang, can you share your spirit melon seeds with Sister Fu Bao? Fu Bao wants to eat them too."

"I do not have a younger sister," Rong Yang said. "You are so grown up, yet you cannot tell who is older and who is younger. Fu Bao is older than me."

Qin He's smile froze. Xue He Shizi and Jiang Mo and the others were also stunned. The child hadn't said anything, so they hadn't paid attention. Lady Qin Xiang had actually reminded Qin He that those younger than Fu Bao should call her Sister Fu Bao.

But Qin He did not care.

At this moment, Rong Yang pointed it out. Xue He Shizi nodded: "Yes, Rong Yang should call Fu Bao Sister."

Qin He said: "It is only a few months difference."

Qin Lang was speechless: "That still doesn't mean you can call Rong Yang Brother."

The expressions of Jiang Mo and the other sons-in-law twitched, half-smiling, half-not. That was true; Rong Yang was clearly younger than Fu Bao, yet Qin He often told other children "Sister Fu Bao, Sister Fu Bao."

Fu Bao had grown tall from eating heavenly treasures and earthly gems, causing everyone to get confused.

"I am Sister Fu Bao," Fu Bao said loudly.

Rong Yang did not call her that, nor did he give Fu Bao any spirit melon seeds.

"Your spirit melon seeds were given by Uncle He," Fu Bao said angrily. "Everything Uncle He buys is shared with me. Share half your spirit melon seeds with me, or I will go tell Uncle He."

Qin Yan's expression changed, and Xue He Shizi also stopped Fu Bao from making a scene.

Seeing Rong He Shizi return to the main table, Jiang Mo and the others felt a jolt in their hearts. Rong Juan did not frown either; he simply calmly picked up Rong Yang and only then spared a glance for Qin He and Xue He Shizi.

Rong He Shizi sneered: "Has the Xue Wang Fu truly become that poor?"

Qin He's face immediately turned red. Xue He Shizi tried to make excuses: "Fu Bao thought the spirit melon seeds were bought by He He Shizi."

"Let me tell you," Rong He Shizi said. "It is indeed He He Shizi who bought the spirit melon seeds. If you have the ability, go ask for them. I want to see how shameless one can be. The young lady of the Xue Wang Fu merely wants to eat a spirit melon seed, yet she still thinks of asking others for them."

Xue He Shizi's face turned ugly. Who was Rong He Shizi? He tolerated no one.

"Rong He Shizi," Qin He said, ashamed and angry. "You cannot speak so harshly."

Rong He Shizi sat down with great authority, holding the little bun Rong Yang, and said: "Then grow some backbone and go buy spirit melon seeds at the Immortal Sect yourself. Asking others for spiritual food at the drop of a hat is shameless."

Boom. Xue He Shizi and Qin He had never been so humiliated.

Should they refute? Whether Xue He Shizi or Qin He, they both felt that if He He Shizi had bought the spirit melon seeds, they could eat them. Even if Rong Yang refused to give them, they could go ask He He Shizi.

Rong He Shizi's words were poisonous, his expression disdainful, his gaze contemptuous.

Xue He Shizi was also angered: "We will certainly not go ask He He Shizi."

Rong He Shizi just snorted, obviously not believing him. Xue He Shizi could not bear the loss of face, handed his legitimate son to Qin He, and took Fu Bao to the Immortal Sect to buy spirit melon seeds.

Not long after, Xue He Shizi returned with a bag of roasted spirit melon seeds.

To save face, Xue He Shizi generously distributed the spirit melon seeds to the children, giving each half a handful. When Qin He asked the price and how many beast crystals it cost, her face turned green; it hurt her flesh.

Qin He had eaten spirit melon seeds before, but those were gifts from He He Shizi. Qin He had never bought them with beast crystals. How could she know that spirit melon seeds sold at the Immortal Sect were so expensive? She did not have many beast crystals.

Xue He Shizi had deliberately bought an extra bag of spirit melon seeds and placed it in front of Rong He Shizi: "Rong He Shizi, do not look down on people. I, Xue Qing, am not a stingy person. This bag of spirit melon seeds is for Rong Yang and Rong Chi."

Look how generous he is. How could Rong He Shizi look down on the Xue Wang Fu?

Rong He Shizi did not stand on ceremony; he glanced at the spirit melon seeds and put them away.

Xue He Shizi felt vindicated and said: "Let the children taste them. How is the texture of the spirit melon seeds I bought?"

Rong He Shizi, holding Rong Yang, just chuckled lightly: "No rush. The children are already full."

Xue He Shizi was proud, and the Marquis Fu families with children were also happy. The children got to eat spirit melon seeds and shared in the glory. Several married young ladies of the Marquis Fu went to speak a few words to Qin He.

Qin He's heart bled with pain, yet she had to force a smile and accept the thanks from her sisters.

After the banquet dispersed, Rong He Shizi and Qin Bi returned to the manor, saw the Minister of War, and tossed the spirit melon seeds to him.
