Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1641: Chapter 1635: Why Haven’t We Arrived Yet?

“It’s still good to be careful yourself.” Chu Molin also knew that such a small injury on himself was nothing, but on his wife, he felt worried.

“Got it, sir, have you eaten yet?” Qin Xue asked with a smile.

“I have.” Chu Molin had eaten when the nanny brought breakfast, fearing that this girl would run off after eating, so he came to catch her.

“That’s good, have they come back yet?” Qin Xue was not aware of the sounds next door and didn’t know if they had returned.

“They came back while you were still asleep and have been quietly working on a stretcher.” Chu Molin came because Qin Xue hadn’t gotten up yet, so he was afraid they’d disturb Qin Xue’s rest and didn’t let them make too much noise; otherwise, with such a short distance, how could Qin Xue not hear the noise?

“Alright, thank you, Chu Molin.” Qin Xue truly felt that it was great to have such a caring husband in this lifetime, who even handled such little things so well, something many women desired but couldn’t get.

“You’re my wife.” Chu Molin expressed his entire heart with just one sentence.

“Cough, cough.”

Chu Molin and Qin Xue simultaneously looked towards the source of the sound, staring fixedly at the person who made the sound.

“I’ll head out, you two continue.” Nangong Beiying feared that if she stayed any longer, she might be overwhelmed by their sweetness.

Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue, who twitched her lips, feeling that Yingying’s actions seemed quite intentional.

“Xue’er, can you walk that far today? How about I carry you later?” Chu Molin thought about how far North Mountain was, and with her leg injury, walking would be too grueling.

“Chu Molin, others don’t know my secret, but you do. Do you think such a small injury could leave me helpless?” Qin Xue held onto his large hand tightly. She wasn’t worried about her own injury, but she was concerned about his.

The weather was hot, making it easy for infections to occur, and he wasn’t attentive to rest. Gunshot wounds are harder to heal, and if it got infected, the consequences could indeed be troublesome.

“Okay, I understand.” Hearing Qin Xue’s words, Chu Molin knew that her leg was fine. Indeed, seeing how she walked normally was enough to tell, and it was just his concern that made him anxious, not wanting her to be uncomfortable.

Just knowing she’s fine put his mind at ease, and everything else could come slowly.

“Holy Maiden, we’re all ready now. Shall we set off?” The elder and his group came to find Qin Xue after finishing their meal.

“Alright, let’s go.” Qin Xue saw they were all present, so she picked up her bag, waiting for them to lead the way.

After all, she still wasn’t very familiar with the roads here, and getting lost could lead to trouble, an unchanging truth.

“Qing Teng, how much further is it?” Qin Xue looked at the lush forest. They had been walking for half a day, but they still hadn’t reached the water source they mentioned and didn’t know where exactly it was.

“We’re almost there. Look, the soil here is much more moist than before, and the trees are much more verdant, which proves the proximity to the water source.” Chu Molin glanced around and then explained to his wife.

“I understand that principle, I meant how much longer do we have to walk to get there.” Qin Xue knew they misunderstood her meaning.

“About half an hour.” The elder chimed in after hearing Qin Xue’s words. He hadn’t been to North Mountain in a long time, but people in their village farmed long-term and often walked these paths, so the journey was trivial to them. It’s just that Qin Xue’s group’s walking pace was much slower.
