Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space-Chapter 578 - 573: Gong Xinya
Chapter 578: Chapter 573: Gong Xinya
At the time, Chu Molin didn’t understand what his mother was talking about, so he just nodded in acknowledgment.
Now, the fact that his grandmother gave the bracelet to Qin Xue rather than Zhao Xuezhi made him feel somewhat better, no matter how he thought about it.
Upon seeing that Qin Xue did not want to accept the bracelet, he refrained from saying anything. However, when they continued to pass the bracelet back and forth, Chu Molin, fearing that the bracelet would be damaged, insisted that his wife accept it.
“Thanks, grandma.” After thanking Miao Qingqing, Qin Xue looked at her husband, not understanding why he insisted she accept the pair of jade bracelets.
Chu Molin took the bracelets and quickly slipped them onto Qin Xue’s wrists.
“Chu Molin, don’t you want to explain what this is about?” Qin Xue watched her husband’s actions without trying to stop him.
“These were my mom’s. She said they should be passed down to my wife.” Chu Molin clarified the situation with this statement. frёeωebɳovel.com
“So you mean, she is your… blood mother?” Qin Xue found it incredible.
“Yes.” Chu Molin, who no longer returned to the Chu family home, felt that whether he acknowledged it or not made no difference at this point.
“So, this is why I always felt that something was off, and I couldn’t quite put a finger on it. Well, I suppose obedience is the best course of action.” Qin Xue stared at the jade bracelet on her fair wrist.
She had always heard that jade had nourishing properties. Now she would have a chance to experience this first-hand.
That day, the two children were dressed in matching red robes, so different from the simple attire they had been wearing when they were born.
They didn’t throw a huge party, just invited some close friends including the Xie and Xu families, and the Jing Xin family. It can only be described as fortunate.
Jing Xin had finally gotten a house and moved Fang Xiu and her son to the research institute. A few of Chu Molin’s close colleagues also came over to share a meal at their home.
Despite the small number of invitees, there were still two tables of guests. So early in the morning, Nangong Shulan, Yu Xiu, and Fang Hong started preparing various dishes, including crispy pork and fried meatballs, which were everyone’s favorites.
The crayfish that Cui Da had brought were kept in three large basins, and Qin Xue would occasionally add some spiritual spring water to prevent them from dying. If she hadn’t been afraid of other people finding out, she would have brought them directly from her interspatial storage, and wouldn’t have had to secretly go to such lengths.
Seeing that Miao Qingqing had arrived early, Qin Xue asked her to look after the children, and started working on the crayfish herself. She remembered that this group of people loved spicy crayfish, so she decided to make a lot more today.
But when would she be able to finish preparing so many?
Chu Molin was at work, so he was unable to help. Her gaze swept the room and landed on her sister.
“Lele, come help me wash these crayfish.” Qin Xue called out to her sister.
“Sis, what’s the point in eating these big shells? What’s the use of washing them?” Qin Jiale muttered, but she still started to help.
“You’ll see once they’re cooked. I guarantee you’ll want more.” Qin Xue thought about how many people expressed that sentiment when they first saw crayfish, but couldn’t stop eating after having a taste.
“You mean I’ll want more of this shellfish? Are you trying to fool me?” Qin Jiale looked at Qin Xue skeptically.
“Yes, these shellfish. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.” Qin Xue said mysteriously.
After hearing what Qin Xue said, Qin Jiale’s curiosity was indeed piqued. Could they really be that tasty?
The two sisters chatted and laughed as they cleaned the crayfish.
Qin Xue thought about making extra so she could take it to the cafeteria and add it to the soldiers’ meals.
As a result, the two sisters ended up cleaning all three big basins of crayfish and crabs, leaving them ready to be cooked.
Miao Qingqing was looking after the children. Today was their first full moon, and she hadn’t told Chu Zhan or her son and daughter-in-law about her visit. She wanted certain issues to resolve naturally over time. As for the resentment her grandson held, she believed that he would understand eventually.
