The wife travels through time and space to honor her husband: The heirless prince raises a child

“Fu Bao.” Prince Xue frowned: “You are a first-rank princess, so you should act like one. Don’t be willful.”

"I'm fine." Fu Bao was still wondering why Prince Xue would say that to her. The little girl frowned and said, "I'm lucky. I should be the darling of the group. No matter what, everyone should pamper me."

Prince Xue and Princess Xue exchanged a glance, while Qin He's eldest son looked at his sister with a blank expression.

The child knew very well that her mother preferred her older sister.

"Who told you you're the group's darling?" Prince Xue asked.

Fu Bao hesitated whether she should speak, but it was her father who asked her.

Fu Bao said, "My mother told me."

Prince Xue's heart sank, and Princess Xue took a deep breath in anger. Qin He was too self-righteous. Fu Bao didn't know she had said too much. Seeing that her younger brother was bored with studying, she ran off to play.

"Back then, I said your Crown Princess was born out of wedlock and her upbringing was somewhat lacking, so I suggested that she be raised by me. Qin He absolutely refused." Princess Xue took a deep breath and continued, "You also protected Qin He, insisting that she couldn't bear to part with her child and insisted on raising her yourself. Now look what's happened, you've raised a perfectly good little princess of the Xue Prince's Mansion into this state. She thinks everyone should pamper her. It would have been better if the Crown Prince He didn't have a child. Now that the Crown Prince He has his own child, Fu Bao has lost all the dignity she used to have as a princess."

Prince Xue, holding his eldest son, said, "Our Xue Prince's Mansion is no less impressive."

Princess Xue said, "Young Master He is a powerful minister."

The hereditary Duke of Yan's mansion, and the heir of Prince He, being the son of a powerful minister, naturally differed from the Prince Xue's mansion. Although the Prince Xue's mansion was a first-class noble family, it still couldn't compare to the Duke of Yan's mansion.

Leaving that matter aside, Princess Xue changed the subject and asked, "Tell me, why did your Crown Princess faint?"

Prince Xue made no mention of Qin He's fainting from anger, saying, "She went out of the manor twice yesterday and was exhausted. Besides, Qin He always thinks she is the pride of the Marquis's manor. She was depressed because she didn't get the spirit-sharing vegetables, which is not good for her health."

Princess Xue didn't believe it completely, but she didn't bring it up again. Instead, she brought up the spirit vegetable: "Why wasn't the spirit vegetable given to the Crown Princess? Among all the sisters in the Marquis's mansion, the Crown Princess is considered to have married well. Our royal family is of noble birth, so the Marquis's mansion should give her a second look."

Prince Xue remained silent; how could he possibly say that Qin He had done it herself?

In the past, when Prince He gave things to the Marquis's mansion, Qin He would decide how to distribute them, always bypassing the fourth branch and only giving them to the other branches. This time, it was the spiritual vegetables that Qin Bi planted, so the fourth branch naturally excluded the second branch and Qin He.

All of this is given to Qin He. Doesn't the fourth wife have any temper?
No matter how bad Qin He was, Prince Xue couldn't tell Princess Xue, lest Princess Xue become even more dissatisfied with Qin He. Princess Xue already looked down on Qin He, and how could she know that Qin He was so petty?

Qin He's younger sister and Qin Yan stayed for a while longer before getting up to say goodbye.

The two felt guilty thinking about Qin He's situation, so they went back to the Marquis's residence and told the Marquis's wife and the second wife, Cui. The Marquis's wife was speechless, and Qin He's anger was completely unreasonable.

He's angry, that's just his habit.

What could Cui's reaction be? She originally wanted to have someone take some better medicinal herbs from the storeroom and send them to Qin He, but the women of the Marquis's mansion had just gone there once, so going again would be redundant.

Well, the Xue Prince's mansion can't possibly lack things to nourish Qin He's body.

Qin He fainted from anger, which didn't surprise Cui Shi at all. Given Qin He's temper, she was indeed prone to getting furious. Qin He could be quite petty at times, and despite the fact that the shops were jointly owned by various families, she always thought she was in charge.

"Qin He is petty," Cui said. "From now on, you should stay away from gossiping about her."

Qin He's younger sister retorted, "Who said that Sister Qin He is petty? I think she's a very good person."

Madam Cui glanced at her eldest daughter with disdain, and reluctantly added, "Everyone is running the shop together, and each household gets a share. The money from that share doesn't belong to Qin He anymore. Why should she care how others spend it? If she's going to get angry about this, she might as well die of anger." Qin He's younger sister pouted, "Sister Qin He has contributed a lot to the soap shop. Sister Qin He and Qin Bi are already at odds. The Prince Rong turned around and gave his share of the money to Qin Bi. Of course, Sister Qin He is angry."

"Whatever," Cui said, too lazy to care. "Let her get angry if she wants to."

Whether she's angry or not, it's all up to her. As long as Qin He's health is fine, let her be angry. Cui Shi doesn't have the time to worry about it.

Qin He's younger sister left dejectedly, and Qin Yan, after being scolded by her stepmother, became obedient.

Qin Bi and Rong Yang had already returned to the Rong Prince's Mansion. Qin Lang found out the news from the mansion and immediately said to Qin Xun, "I'm going to the Rong Prince's Mansion. I'll tell my sister that I'll make Qin He faint from anger."

Qin Xun smiled: "Go ahead."

Qin Lang rode his horse to the Rong Prince's mansion and went straight to the Crown Prince's courtyard. He met Qin Bi and told her about Qin He's fainting spell. Qin Lang thought Qin Bi would be happy, but to his surprise, Qin Bi showed no expression.

"Has your lifespan been damaged?" Qin Bi asked.

Qin Lang was taken aback: "No."

Qin Bi said, "There's nothing to be happy about. Only if Qin He's lifespan is shortened can I relieve the hatred in my heart."

"This..." Qin Lang said, "How about we keep trying to provoke her?"

Qin Bi squinted and exhaled a breath of turbid air, saying, "It's no use. Qin He's lifespan won't be damaged. Their personalities are different. Qin He can't feel what I felt back then. She doesn't love anyone. Qin He is very selfish and doesn't think much. How could her lifespan be damaged?"

At this point, Qin Bi's eyes lit up with a smile: "However, it wouldn't hurt to annoy her a little more."

Qin Lang immediately asked, "Why did you upset her?"

Qin Bi looked at Qin Lang: "Take your Five Grains Abundance Cloud and go farming."

Qin Lang: "..."

Qin Lang was completely confused: "What do you mean?"

Qin Bi didn't say, "You'll know once you take a trip to the wilderness."

Qin Lang left with a puzzled look on his face. Rong Yang looked at the sky, told Qin Bi, and called for the young prince to go to the Duke of Yan's mansion to pick up his younger brother Rong Chi. Rong Chi fluttered around excitedly, his elder brother had come to pick him up.

The young prince picked up Rong Chi and talked to the little guy.

Rong Yang also had something to say to Prince He. She tilted her little head and said, "Father, my maternal grandfather's house is going to build a courtyard. The courtyard where my mother lives is not big. My brother and I will also have to live there when we go there."

"Oh?" Prince He sat down. "Tell me about it."

Rong Yang then explained who would contribute how much silver: the Crown Prince Rong would contribute 20,000 taels of silver, Jiang Mo would contribute 20,000 taels of silver, and Marquis Qin Yan would contribute a portion from the public funds. It could be said that the four branches of the family would not need to contribute any silver to build the courtyard.

He Yan squinted. Most of the money that Qin Yanhou's mansion took from the public funds was because of what Qin He had done. Qin Yanhou felt indebted, so the fourth branch of the family didn't have to pay for the construction of their courtyard.

"Because my father, the Prince Rong, gave my mother his share of the shop's profits, Fu Bao's mother got angry." Rong Yang said in a childish voice, but clearly enunciated, as she leaned against He Yan, "Father, why don't you give me your share of the shop's profits too? You might as well just make Fu Bao's mother angry to death all at once." (End of this chapter)
