Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1374: Chapter 1368: Unbelievable_1 Chapter 1374: Chapter 1368: Unbelievable_1 “You? Seen a lot?” Qing Teng asked, pointing at Xue Ling. She didn’t believe it at all. This little one, how much of the world could she have seen to claim such breadth of knowledge?

“Yep, me. You don’t believe it, do you?” Xue Ling could tell from Qing Teng’s reaction that she didn’t believe her, but there was no need for her to explain everything.

“I don’t believe.” Qing Teng straightforwardly admitted her skepticism.

“Well, it doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not, you’ll find out eventually.” Xue Ling felt the best explanation was often no explanation at all. Time would prove everything, so there was no need for her to argue.

“So, it’s like you didn’t say anything at all.” Qing Teng was speechless. This little brat had quite the audacity to talk like this.

“If you’re free, can you help me grind this to a powder? I’ll need it soon. How does that sound?” Xue Ling, seeing Qing Teng with nothing to do assigned her a task.

“Sure.” Rather than refusing, Qing Teng accepted the job. Having previously done similar jobs while serving her young lady, she knew what to do once she was handed the mortar and pestle.

“Not bad, you seem to have some basic skills.” Xue Ling admired Qing Teng’s skilled movements.

“I used to assist my young lady at home with this, so it’s not an issue.” Qing Teng replied while continuing her work.

“I’m not trying to put you in a bind, I just noticed you were bored and wanted to give you something to do.” Xue Ling wasn’t idle enough to make it hard for a girl she had just met.

“I know, otherwise I wouldn’t be helping you.” Qing Teng was not a pushover. If Xue Ling had really done that, she wouldn’t have helped.

“Hmm, your character is decent. Beautiful, with good manners, you’re a good girl.” Xue Ling praised while going about her own business.

“Little girl, are you sure there’s no problem with you saying that?” Qing Teng widened her eyes to look at Xue Ling. This little girl dared to call her a young girl, truly a little devil. Her words were infuriating, but she was too clever to argue with.

“I’m sure, get back to work. If you want Qin Xue to save someone quickly, then it’s best to focus on your own task.” Xue Ling obviously knew what Qin Xue was thinking, and what she was doing now was to help her prepare more of the medicine for future use, better having it on hand than not needing it at all.

“Why?” Qing Teng asked Xue Ling without understanding.

“Because what you’re doing right now might help save someone’s life. Got it.” Xue Ling replied indifferently.

“But she hasn’t examined the patient yet, can the medicine be made now?” Qing Teng doubted, looking at the objects in her hand. She hadn’t seen the patient yet, and the medicine was already being prepared – would it be applicable?

“That’s not your concern. Just do what you need to do.” Xue Ling was exasperated. Did Qing Teng understand what kind of medicine this was? What she was making would definitely be applicable for a variety of ailments. Even if it wasn’t specific, it would have some suppressive effects. Otherwise, why would she put so much thought into this?

“All right then, I’ll do as you say.” Qing Teng didn’t want to argue about who was right or wrong with Xue Ling, so she chose to get to work. Regardless of whether what Xue Ling had said was true or not, she wasn’t planning to refuse help.

“What I said is true, you just get on with it. When the time comes, if it’s not needed, you can do whatever you want.” Xue Ling was afraid Qing Teng wouldn’t work properly, so she made this promise.

“That won’t be necessary. My mistress trusts you, so I trust you too.” Although Qing Teng didn’t know much about Xue Ling, she trusted Qin Xue. If Qin Xue trusted Xue Ling, then why shouldn’t she?
