Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1264: Chapter 1258: Dividing the Apple_1 Chapter 1264: Chapter 1258: Dividing the Apple_1 That’s why Nangong Beiying hoped that those who were kind to her could be happy, only then could they continue to live happily ever after.

As for Qing Teng, she was clearer about some things than anyone else, which was why she never demanded anything. For those who had been kind to her, even if they wanted her life, she would not harm them. Nangong Beiying was one such person who had shown her kindness. Therefore, even though Qing Teng knew that An Xiaofeng was in love with Nangong Beiying, she would not speak out and make things difficult for everyone.

This was why Qing Teng made Nangong Beiying worry for her. Sometimes Qing Teng might seem too ruthless, but she would never hurt her own people, not in the slightest.

“I don’t know how to explain this to you, at first when I didn’t know Qing Teng was your friend, I thought of forcing that big dumb guy to marry Qing Teng. But then I realized, if An Xiaofeng didn’t love her, the hurt would be even worse. So, once I found out it was you, I couldn’t say those things anymore.” Qin Xue knew that nothing was more hurtful than love.

“Don’t worry, I will surely find a way to help Qing Teng.” Nangong Beiying considered Qing Teng as her family. How could she sit back and watch her family suffer without doing something about it? It just wasn’t her style.

“Let’s figure this out together. Two heads are better than one,” said Qin Xue, who felt powerless.

“Ok.” What more could Nangong Beiying say? When it came to the poison, they were both inexperienced and unfamiliar. All they could do was grope their way across the river by feeling the stones in the dark.

They talked for a very long time before saying goodbye and leaving. Each member of Qin Xue’s family busied themselves with their own things.

“Auntie, eat.” Jingtao held an apple towards Qin Xue.

“Where did this fruit come from?” Qin Xue didn’t recall buying any apples.

“It’s from Auntie.” Qin Xue had always taught Jingtao to address Nangong Beiying as Auntie. So Jingtao was saying that the apple was from Nangong Beiying.

“Taotao, you eat it. Auntie doesn’t want it.” Qin Xue looked at her obedient nephew, a delightful child.

“Eat.” Jingtao stubbornly placed the apple into Qin Xue’s hand.

“Why are you so stubborn, kiddo?” Qin Xue looked at the apple in her hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

“Just eat it, it’s from the child.” Chu Molin smiled as he happened to witness this scene.

“What’s there to eat? I am an adult arguing with a child over food, if news of this got out, won’t it become a joke?” Qin Xue wasn’t a child after all.

“It’s his token of affection. He’s giving it to you because he likes you. You don’t want to see the boy heartbroken, do you?” Chu Molin also hoped to see his wife happy.

“Fine, I can’t win against you. I’ll cut it up and let the kids chew on it.” Qin Xue knew the children were teething, constantly drooling. Having them chew on this apple was perfect.

“Aren’t you afraid they might choke on it?” Chu Molin murmured, though Qin Xue, who had already walked away, didn’t hear him.

As for the apple, Qin Xue cut it into four pieces, one for each of the three children, and the last piece for herself. Why did she take a piece as well? Because when she was giving a piece to Fang Xiu, Jingtao saw and insisted that she eat it too.

“Taotao, your mommy has a little brother in her tummy. Would you let mommy eat it instead?” Qin Xue was really at her wits’ end. He wasn’t even allowing half an apple for him. Was he sure this was his mother?

“Eat mine.” Jingtao didn’t let Qin Xue give it to Fang Xiu, and instead offered her his piece.

“Taotao, who taught you this?” Qin Xue was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Jingtao to behave like this. It really caught her off guard.

“Auntie.” Jingtao forthrightly identified the person behind it all. From the short time he had spent with Nangong Beiying, he had come to follow her words to the letter.
