Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1045: Chapter 1039 Qing Zhu_1

“Alright, Qing Zhu, rest here. Ouyang, keep an eye on mother and daughter. I need to speak with my husband for a moment, and I’ll be right back. If I haven’t returned and you need me, just send someone to call for me.” Qin Xue still hadn’t mentioned what she wanted to discuss with Chu Molin, but now that the situation with Qing Zhu was handled. Naturally, she should go about her own matters.

“Sure, go ahead, the sooner you go, the sooner you come back.” Ouyang didn’t find it odd after hearing this. It was pretty normal for a married couple to want some alone time together, wasn’t it?

“Dr. Qin, are you married?” asked Qing Zhu after hearing their conversation. Dr. Qin seemed too young to be married. In a rural family, such a young age for marriage would be normal. But based on her appearance, she did not look like she was from the countryside. She had a job, was beautiful, and most importantly, her demeanor didn’t seem like someone who would marry early.

“Really, is it that hard to believe?” Qin Xue lowered her gaze to look at herself. This was pretty normal, right? Why didn’t people believe that she was married when they saw her?

“It’s not that. Hurry up and go,” Ouyang Ziyu lightly shoved her, urging her to move quickly. She didn’t want Qin Xue making her feel envious with all the affection she showed for her husband. She wasn’t in the right mood for that.

“Understood, seriously.” Qin Xue rolled her eyes at Ouyang Ziyu. How much did this woman dislike her?

“Why did Dr. Qin get married so early?” Qing Zhu asked Ouyang Ziyu after Qin Xue had left.

“I’m not sure about her situation. Both of us were assigned here yesterday. Do you understand what I am saying?” Ouyang Ziyu said to Qing Zhu with a smile.

“So you both became close that fast? If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have thought that you just met. I would’ve assumed you two grew up together or have been acquainted for a long time.” Qing Zhu laughed, looking at Ouyang Ziyu. If Qing Zhu had had bad intentions, Ouyang Ziyu would have definitely been taken advantage of.

“Isn’t it because I noticed that you’re a good person? So, I was just being truthful with you. Do you think I am like this with everybody? Most importantly, Qin Xue said she’s planning to bring you to her home. So, I don’t feel the need to be cautious around you anymore.” Ouyang Ziyu clearly understood what Qing Zhu was getting at. She didn’t have to be secretive. It would be better to be straightforward and earn a reputation for being naive, wouldn’t it?

“Ha-ha, I didn’t mean anything by it. I just noticed that both of you are around the same age, yet there’s some difference in the way you carry yourselves, so that’s why I asked. I really didn’t mean anything else.” Qing Zhu hadn’t expected Ouyang Ziyu to be so straightforward. Wasn’t this just embarrassingly transparent? She truly was a naive girl. Thinking of this, Qing Zhu paused. Why was she thinking this way? Was she once an experienced woman?

Qing Zhu became lost in her thoughts, not hearing whatever Ouyang Ziyu was saying. Seeing her like this, Ouyang Ziyu didn’t continue talking either, figuring she must be thinking about something crucial. It’s best to stay quiet in the meantime.

Qin Xue arrived at the place where Chu Molin had spoken to her yesterday. Seeing the people there still busy, she casually asked one of them.

“Comrade, may I ask if Chu Molin is around?” Qin Xue asked a soldier nearby.

“Mr. Chu isn’t here, he went over there for a rescue operation.” The soldier didn’t expect someone wearing a white coat to be asking for their temporary commanding officer, so he pointed Qin Xue in the direction where he had headed.
