Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 726: Chapter 720: Wanting to Inquire Information

Luu Xiao’ai couldn’t get the information she wanted from Chu Xiaoqiao, so she had to think of another way to gain their approval and get close to them.

“Xiaoqiao, you know where your brother and his family live, right? Let’s go visit them sometime. Your sister-in-law seems quite pretty, and she seems like a nice person too.

Especially those two little babies, they’re so beautiful. I want to go see them and get to know them. Even if we can’t become one family, we can at least be friends, right?” Luu Xiao’ai tried to influence Chu Xiaoqiao’s thoughts, so she couldn’t put up her guard against her too. Otherwise, what chance would she have?

After hearing Luu Xiao’ai’s words, Chu Xiaoqiao looked at her, and upon finding nothing wrong with what she said, she nodded: “That’s a good idea, Xiao’ai. You know what my elder brother is like; it’s pretty much impossible for you to win him over, so it’s good that you can accept this reality.” Chu Xiaoqiao spoke happily, thinking that if Luu Xiao’ai really felt this way, their family wouldn’t have to worry about not being able to resolve this situation.

Seeing Chu Xiaoqiao’s reaction, Luu Xiao’ai thought to herself that as expected, Chu Xiaoqiao had already sided with Qin Xue. That meant she had to find a way to get closer to them.

As for Chu Molin and his family, when they returned home, Qin Xue asked Xue Ling to watch the children while she started preparing to make some dishes, like meat cooked in a thick, rich sauce.

...
Chu Molin also rolled up his sleeves to help, washing vegetables and cutting meat, while Qin Xue prepared various spices and condiments for the dishes.

About half an hour later, mouth-watering smells wafted from their yard, making people crave the food. Even passersby couldn’t help but stop and take a few deep breaths, wondering what delicious food was being cooked in the house to make it smell so good.

“Xue’er, why are you making so much?” Chu Molin was a bit surprised, not realizing just how much food was being prepared when he was cutting the meat, but now that it was cooked with the spices and condiments, it had startled him.

“I’m planning to take these to the supply and marketing co-op to let them sell them on consignment,” Qin Xue explained, as her goal was to make money, not just cook for their own enjoyment. She wasn’t the type to just sit back and consume without earning.

“I see.” Chu Molin realized that he hadn’t thought as far ahead as his wife. He had only considered promoting the food through the people in the dorms, while she was already thinking of selling through the supply and marketing co-op.

Actually, it wasn’t Chu Molin’s fault that he didn’t think about these things. Their concerns were different. Qin Xue knew that life was inseparable from these things, while Chu Molin had always relied on the state for his livelihood and didn’t consider as much as Qin Xue. It wasn’t that Chu Molin wasn’t thoughtful enough.

“Yeah, since we moved here, aside from my income from the clothing store and drawing blueprints for the factory in S Province, we don’t have much else to rely on. As our children grow older, we’ll need more money. If I don’t think about how to earn money now, where will we find the money when we need it?” Qin Xue said, having completely forgotten about the hotel Qin Yu opened and the dividends from Xiao Qi’s business.

Chu Molin remembered, but he didn’t refute his wife’s statement. They would both work hard to earn money, and she could keep whatever she earned.

“Okay, let’s both work hard to earn money for our family.” Chu Molin thought that since his wife enjoyed earning money, he would let her do so. It was good for her to have something to do rather than sitting around feeling trapped.

“Yes, let’s do our best.” Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin and smiled, grateful for a husband who understood her.

The couple busied themselves until the afternoon, getting everything done. Only when they stopped did they realize that they had already digested the food they had eaten earlier in the day, and their stomachs were now empty.

“Ah, I’m so hungry. What should we eat?” Qin Xue asked her husband.

“Let’s have noodles.” Chu Molin thought that noodles would be the quickest meal to prepare at this point.

“Alright, let’s have noodles.” Qin Xue had no objections, as this truly was the most convenient and quick solution.
