Family Rise by Daily Intelligence-Chapter 360 - 197: Lost Both Money and Soldiers, Seeking a Child, Making Peace

Chapter 360: Chapter 197: Lost Both Money and Soldiers, Seeking a Child, Making Peace

For his little sister Yaoyao, Brother Fan was always very indulgent. He retrieved a storage bag from his sleeve: "Here, these are the Spirit Stones mother just handed to me."

Yaoyao glanced at it and pursed her lips:

"Those two hundred thousand Spirit Stones don’t seem like much."

She instantly lost interest.

Turning around, she said:

"I’m going to check on Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother."

Brother Fan quickly called her back.

His face flushed with an unusual blush. He coughed lightly and swiftly shoved a delicate little box into her hand: "Help me give this to Sister Yulian."

Yaoyao blinked.

When she realized, she nearly jumped up:

"Big Brother, when did you and Sister Yulian get so close? You two are too much, didn’t even give me a hint. Hmph, I’m not going to be your errand girl."

"Yaoyao, keep your voice down."

Brother Fan hurriedly looked around, sighed in relief seeing no one was there, and coaxed:

"My dear sister, you can’t say things like this to others, especially not in front of mom. It’s me... it’s me who has feelings for Yulian, she hasn’t even responded yet, so please don’t spread rumors and ruin her reputation."

As he spoke, he handed Yaoyao an Array Pattern Stone.

It was exactly what Yaoyao needed, and her face immediately lit up with a smile. Seeing her brother’s rare anxious expression, she chuckled:

"Big Brother, I was just teasing you. Don’t worry, I’ll personally deliver this gift to Sister Yulian."

Yaoyao left with a smile.

First, she went to see the twins, and then turned to the Spirit Medicine Garden in the back mountain’s waterfall.

The Spirit Field here was planted with Tier Two spiritual flowers and herbs. After Fairy Lady Cai and Gan Shenglin got married, they built a small courtyard nearby, specifically to take care of the area and further study the Spirit Plant Technique.

When Yaoyao entered.

Fairy Lady Cai and Gan Shenglin were casting Spirit Rain on the Cloud Ling Flower, and Yaoyao peeked in but didn’t see Yulian:

"Auntie Cai, where is Sister Yulian?"

"In the room,"

Fairy Lady Cai nodded her chin in that direction.

Yaoyao thanked her and turned toward Yulian’s room.

In the room, Yulian was crafting a Tier One High-Grade Magic Robe.

Over the years, Yulian’s congenital ailments had almost healed, and her cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi Cultivation.

Initially, she studied Spirit Plant Technique with Fairy Lady Cai, but discovered she had no talent in that area, so she turned to study making magic robes with Yuwen Wei. Although she started late, her comprehension was strong, and in a mere decade, she had advanced to a Tier One High-Grade Manufacturing Master.

When Yaoyao entered the room, she casually cast a technique on the room’s array, and with a buzz, an array light curtain immediately rose up.

In the medicine field, seeing this scene, Fairy Lady Cai’s face showed concern, and she paused her spiritual technique.

Gan Shenglin, seeing this, quickly said:

"Wife, you are pregnant, you shouldn’t overthink."

Married for many years.

Fairy Lady Cai had finally gotten pregnant again, which delighted Gan Shenglin, so naturally, he feared for her safety.

Earlier, when Yaoyao came in, Fairy Lady Cai had sharply noticed the lotus-engraved box in her hand.

In an accidental encounter.

She’d seen Brother Fan claim he was looking for Yaoyao but secretly handed Yulian such a box. Later, she deliberately searched Yulian’s room after Yulian had gone to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to deliver magic robes, finding several identical lotus boxes.

Fairy Lady Cai worriedly said:

"Husband, do you think I should have a good talk with Yulian?"

In the future, Brother Fan was meant to manage the Fu Family’s business.

The one he marries should naturally be a high-born lady with a strong family background. Even though I, as her mother, am a Tier Two Spirit Plant Master, such a status clearly isn’t enough to marry upwards to Brother Fan, and Yulian’s illness from birth is an added concern.

The Patriarch might not mind.

But the Lady of the House certainly wouldn’t agree to such a match.

Knowing there’s no outcome, it might be better for her daughter to realize the reality sooner.

But thinking about how her daughter had suffered since childhood, and seeing her smile more these days, she was a bit reluctant.

Gan Shenglin comforted:

"Children have their paths; it’s for Yulian and the Young Clan Leader to decide. We better not meddle too much."

After a pause.

Gan Shenglin glanced around, lowering his voice to whisper to Fairy Lady Cai:

"At the last Elder Council, the Chief Steward proposed appointing a Crown Prince, but it seemed the Patriarch had no intention of giving it to Brother Fan. I heard that the Young Clan Leader doesn’t have good cultivation aptitude, and now the Lady of the House has given birth to twins. The future of the Patriarch’s successor is uncertain, so Yulian may not necessarily be unworthy of the Young Clan Leader."

Fairy Lady Cai, hearing this, her initial resolve to break up the couple softened instantly.

...

Similarly.

Fu Changren was equally troubled like Fairy Lady Cai.

The Fu Family had forced the Liang Family to cough up 180,000 Spirit Stones at Wanning Marketplace, and everyone in the clan was overjoyed, but Fu Changren couldn’t smile.

He and Liang Family’s Grand Elder’s granddaughter, Liang Qianqian, were deeply involved.

But after the competition over shops in Wanning Marketplace, the Liang and Fu Families were at odds, and his relationship with Liang Qianqian was destined to be fruitless.

Therefore.

During these months.

No matter what message Liang Qianqian sent him, he never replied.

Just as he was frustrated.

The Communication Jade Talisman at his waist emitted a series of urgent buzzing, and after a technique was used, Liang Qianqian’s voice transmitted:

"I am in front of your mountain gate. If you don’t come out, I will wait forever."

This....

Why did she come to the house?

As the Chief Steward of the clan’s territory, if Liang Qianqian made a scene, his authority among clan members would diminish considerably. Having been honest and upright for half his life, Fu Changren certainly didn’t want to compromise his dignity at this time.
