Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 528: Chapter 523: Buying Chicken to Cook Soup

Chu Molin went to the market and bought a chicken, dozens of eggs, a large bag of brown sugar and dates, and finally a little goji berries.

Chu Molin looked at these things and hooked the corner of his mouth. His wife had worked so hard to give birth to the children. He should prepare some nourishment for her.

“Eh, Chu Molin, where are you coming back from?” Xie Jun saw Chu Molin returning from outside with several items in his hands when he reached the first floor on his way to work.

“Mr. Xie, didn’t my wife give birth last night? I went to buy a chicken to make a soup for her.” Chu Molin smiled when he saw Xie Jun asking.

“Ah, Qin Xue gave birth? Congratulations, is it a boy or a girl?” Xie Jun had a son and hoped his wife would give birth to a daughter this time.

“Two boys.” Chu Molin was extremely disappointed as he yearned for a daughter.

...
“You’re quite something! You got two sons at once, and you’re still not satisfied?” Xie Jun patted him on the shoulder.

“Mr. Xie, what’s so good about sons? I want a daughter, not sons.” Chu Molin couldn’t understand why both the children weren’t daughters. Even one daughter would have been fine, but they were both sons.

“You’re just complaining. Some people can’t even get one.” Xie Jun punched him, thinking that Chu Molin must be showing off.

But Chu Molin was feeling bitter inside. He could spoil a daughter and take care of her, but sons would compete with him for his wife’s attention.

In the future, he would have to compete with his sons for his wife’s attention, which would only bring more loss to him. How could he be happy about that?

If Qin Xue knew about Chu Molin’s thoughts, she would definitely kick him. A grown man feeling jealous of two children, how shameful!

“Mr. Xie, I don’t care what others think, but I just want a daughter, imagine holding her soft, tender body, how delightful.” Chu Molin’s face softened at the thought of a daughter.

“Yeah, I want a daughter too.” Upon hearing Chu Molin’s words, Xie Jun wanted a daughter even more.

“Didn’t you say sons are better? I hope your wife has another son for you.” After saying this, Chu Molin went upstairs, not wanting to be cornered by Xie Jun.

“Chu Molin, what kind of person are you? Just because your wife didn’t give birth to a daughter, you won’t let my wife give birth to one?” Xie Jun was infuriated by Chu Molin’s words.

“By the way, Mr. Xie, I’d like to take two days off to take care of my wife at the hospital. Please don’t call me unless it’s urgent.” Chu Molin had never taken a day off in all his years of working.

Now that his special training was over, and there were no urgent matters that required him, he should be able to take a leave.

“Alright, I approve. Take good care of your wife and your two children.” Xie Jun knew that Qin Xue had no one to look after her, so it wouldn’t be right if Chu Molin didn’t care for her.

However, Xie Jun genuinely thought Chu Molin’s luck was incredible. He had fathered two sons in one go, making numerous families envious of his good fortune.

“Mr. Chu is buying so many blood-nourishing ingredients.” Fang Hong was about to go to work when she saw Chu Molin and thought that he was truly a good husband who cared for his wife.

“Yeah, are you going to work, Hong?” Chu Molin asked upon seeing Fang Hong’s attire.

“Yes, why?” Fang Hong asked, puzzled.

“Do you know where Qin Yu is in the city?” Chu Molin knew that Qin Xue had made arrangements for her younger brother, but he hadn’t had a chance to ask about the details.

“I know, do you have something for him? Do you want me to tell him to come back here tonight?” Fang Hong asked.

“No need, just tell him that his sister gave birth to two boys, so he should send a telegram back home to inform his parents.” Qin Xue had initially asked him to go, but he couldn’t leave since he had to prepare food for her.
