Chapter 595 Eating Spirit Fruit
Qin Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, and the others looked over as well.
As the little girl Jiang Shen wiped the less-than-ideal-looking spirit fruit with a handkerchief, she swallowed her saliva. The spirit fruit smelled so good. The ripe yellow pear was just a misshapen fruit, but it still smelled very good.
Jiang Shen hadn't eaten spirit fruits many times and couldn't wait to try them. She tilted her head and said, "That's right, there aren't any spirit fruits from Aunt Qin He and Aunt Qin Yuan."
Qin Wu took a bite of the fruit and looked at Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan wiped the spirit fruit with the corner of her clothes, not understanding what Qin Han was up to. But one thing was clear: Qin Han and Qin He had a good relationship. Otherwise, Jiang Shen, a young girl, wouldn't be so upset that Qin He and Qin Yuan didn't get any spirit fruit.
The question is, is the spirit fruit yours? You only want it for Qin He and Qin Yuan?
Qin Yuan is the eldest daughter of Marquis Qin Yan, and she wouldn't ask Qin He and Qin Yuan for spirit fruits. Was Qin Han blind when the third and fourth wives fought with Qin He? Didn't she know that Qin Bi wanted to kill Qin He? Why did you have to bring up the sore spot by asking Qin He for spirit fruits?
"This is so biased towards outsiders, tsk tsk," Qin Yuan looked at Qin Han with curiosity again, lingering on her for a moment. Qin Yuan had never seen Qin Han's way of handling things before.
Qin Tan, Qin Di, Qin Yan, and Qin Xiang were resting under the tree, eating spiritual fruits, and didn't notice what was happening here. While resting and eating spiritual fruits, they also had things to discuss, such as how many trees they had cut down.
Jiang Mo noticed that everyone was silent and felt a pang in his heart: "Qin Han, don't you have any spirit fruits? We still need to collect things. Eat them and get back to work. We haven't collected much today."
Qin Han knew that Jiang Mo was stopping her. She pouted. Collecting more things would only benefit Qin Bi and the Rongwang Mansion, not their Jiang Mansion. Why work so hard?
Besides, Rong Chi is young, but Rong Yang is quite sensible and doesn't treat her, his aunt, very well.
Qin Han was reluctant to collect things for Rong Yang and Rong Chi.
"Qin He is injured," Qin Han said. "Eating a spiritual fruit would be good for her. And Qin Yuan is also injured. We have a whole tree of spiritual fruits here, are we really going to be reluctant to eat them?"
Qin Han's implication was that the Spirit Fruit was being distributed very stingily, and as for who was being stingy? It was self-evident.
After Qin Han finished speaking, she asked Qin Jue, "Right, cousin?"
Qin Jue said, "Qin He and Qin Yuan are immature and don't need to eat spirit fruits."
Want to recruit him to your team? Qin Jue has no interest.
Qin Han: "......"
Jiang Mo's face was as black as ink. His words were so obvious, yet he still couldn't shut Qin Han up. It was best for the couple to stay out of Qin Bi and Qin He's business. Even if they had to get involved, they should side with the fourth branch of the family.
Qin Xun reached out to Qin Han: "Give me the spirit fruit."
"What's wrong?" Qin Han asked in confusion, glancing at the spiritual fruit in her hand before handing it over.
Qin Han thought Qin Xun was going to give her a slightly better quality spiritual fruit. After all, she was from the fourth branch of the family and had grown up with her stepmother since childhood, so she was considered half a legitimate daughter.
Unexpectedly, Qin Xun took the spiritual fruit and completely ignored Qin Han. He then took the remaining spiritual fruit and distributed it to others. Qin Wu lowered her head, took a bite of the yellow pear, and felt extremely embarrassed.
Qin Han: "......"
"Second Brother," Qin Han called out, "my spirit fruit!"
"There's not enough to go around," Qin Xun said. "Don't eat any more."
Qin Han's expression changed instantly. Everyone else had spiritual fruits, but she wasn't given any. It must be because she had spoken up earlier. Qin Han opened her mouth, but she was too embarrassed to ask Qin Xun for more.
People glanced over, and Qin Han lowered her head to hide. How could her brother slap her like that? Qin Han's face burned, and she hadn't even said anything!
Jiang Mo didn't even protect Qin Han; she brought it on herself. She had no tact whatsoever. Didn't he warn her? He subtly hinted that she shouldn't meddle in Qin Bi and Qin He's affairs, but Qin Han simply ignored him. She might lose face, but she'll have to accept it.
Qin Xun didn't bring many misshapen melons and dates to begin with, so giving one less to Qin Han saved one. Spiritual fruits aren't ordinary fruits, and even misshapen melons and dates are delicious, freshly picked from the tree. Giving one less is something to be happy about.
Neither the eldest, fourth, nor fifth wives spoke up for Qin Han. Qin Yan wanted to speak up for Qin Han, but since Qin Han couldn't eat the spiritual fruits, and Qin Yan still wanted to eat them, she remained silent.
If we don't give her any more spirit fruits, it would be so embarrassing in front of so many people.
The second wife would not speak up for Qin Han either. Qin He had just done something terrible, and Qin Jue had come to show her power with great momentum, but she was almost killed in the process. Qin Jue did not want to cause any more trouble.
As for the third branch? The fourth branch still has illegitimate daughters who are on good terms with Qin Han and Qin He, but the third branch is out of the question. Zhu Shi manages the third branch very strictly, and the illegitimate sons and daughters all listen to their father Qin Tan and the legitimate son of the third branch, Qin Lang.
Without a doubt, if Qin He were to fight Qin Bi right now, the third son's disciples would immediately rush in.
Besides, they didn't lose out. Look at the young illegitimate son, he was only slightly injured and he'll be fine in a few days. But Qin Bi and Qin Lang insisted on giving their illegitimate brother a storage bag full of cultivation resources.
I'm so envious!
After Qin Xun finished distributing the spiritual fruits, he went to the tree. Qin Di asked, "What happened?"
"It's nothing," Qin Xun said. "Qin Han doesn't like to eat spirit fruits."
Qin Di: "..."
Qin Tan took a sip of water. Qin Han doesn't like spiritual fruits? How could that be? Most likely, Qin Han has angered Qin Xun, who won't share any spiritual fruits with her anymore. Qin Yan and Qin Xiang had already guessed this, so they didn't say anything more.
Qin Di said, "It's good that she doesn't like it."
It even saves money.
Qin Xun brewed a pot of tea and took it to find Qin Bi, Qin Lang, and Lin Yao. Qin Bi and the others climbed down from the tree, took out a small table from their storage bags, and moved it under the fruit tree.
"Did you give it to Qin He?" Qin Lang sat down and poured a bowl of tea down his throat.
Qin Xun said, "No."
"We shouldn't have given it to her." Qin Lang looked down on Qin He: "She always likes to take advantage of others, and she acts all high and mighty. We can't let her benefit from us."
Qin Bi also took a sip of the flower tea. It was fragrant and thirst-quenching. She took another sip. It was delicious. All around, birds with brightly colored feathers chirped and twittered. Unidentified flowers and plants were in bloom, with flowers of all colors.
Qin Bi's heart stirred, and she sensed that battle qi and spiritual energy were faintly visible around her.
"Sit down, everyone," Qin Bi suddenly said. "Have some tea."
Lin Yao placed a few spiritual fruits on the low table. Qin Xun paused for a moment before sitting down. Lin Yao also lifted his robe and sat down. Just as he picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, the surrounding spiritual energy fluctuated.
Lin Yao, a man of great experience, immediately became serious: "A spatial array?"
Qin Bi didn't know anything about spatial arrays; she simply reached out and pulled a fruit tree out of the ground. Lin Yao, Qin Xun, and Qin Lang were astonished, completely dumbfounded.
Lin Yao then investigated further and discovered that this spatial array could only be formed while they were enjoying tea and conversation; once even one person left, the array would dissipate. (End of Chapter)
