Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1740: Chapter 1734: Too Lazy to Care

Chu Molin glanced at him, but didn’t say anything. It seemed he really liked this little girl. He had known Ye Xuan for quite some time, but he had never seen him like this before. Honestly, it even took him by surprise.

But Chu Molin could understand. After all, Qing Yuran was indeed adorable. Plus, there was something he didn’t mention—Qing Yuran’s eyebrows and eyes bore a slight resemblance to Ye Xuan.

If the two of them hadn’t been complete strangers, he might have even thought she was his child. So seeing Ye Xuan’s behavior, Chu Molin merely assumed he was drawn to the familiar resemblance of Qing Yuran’s features.

Silver Wolf, on the other hand, was completely baffled. He didn’t know Qing Zhu, nor was he aware of whose child this was, but he found himself inexplicably fond of her.

Anyway, since they only had this moment together while they were here, the chances of meeting again after returning home were slim. Whether or not they’d see her again was uncertain. That’s why Silver Wolf didn’t hold back his affection for this child, choosing to follow his heart.

Qing Yuran looked at Silver Wolf, then reached out to touch his face and gave a little nod. It wasn’t clear whether she truly understood him or if it was just a coincidence, but she nodded nonetheless.

Seeing her nod, Silver Wolf didn’t care whether she understood or not. He simply picked out some food he thought tasted good and offered it to her to try. Since she hadn’t grown many teeth yet, Silver Wolf avoided giving her any tough or chunky dishes that would be hard to chew.

The Toona sinensis dish he fed her was finely chopped and stir-fried with eggs by Nangong Shulan, so while it looked like he gave her a lot, in reality, she didn’t eat much—it was mostly egg.

As he fed her other dishes, Silver Wolf avoided choosing anything difficult to eat. The more he fed her, the more his movements became surprisingly skillful.

Watching all this, Qing Zhu couldn’t be bothered to intervene. She continued eating her own meal, thinking, “If he wants to hold her and feed her, let him. It saves me the trouble.”

One could say Qing Zhu was either carefree or slightly lazy. Ever since Silver Wolf took over holding their daughter, she hadn’t paid her any attention and focused entirely on her own meal.

Meanwhile, no one else said a word. The adults ate their meal while simultaneously helping the youngest kids eat. By the time the entire family finished eating, an hour had passed.

“Qin Xue, have you and your family eaten yet?” The elderly grandmother and grandfather arrived just as Qin Xue’s family finished washing and putting away the dishes.

“Grandma, we’ve eaten. Have you and Grandpa eaten? Let me make you a bowl of noodles if you haven’t.” Qin Xue looked at the two elders.

“No need, we’ve already eaten. We just came to check on the children. Are they alright? Did they have nightmares or cry last night?” The elderly grandmother couldn’t help worrying about her great-grandchild. After dinner, she and her husband had come over out of concern.

“No, he’s fine. He wasn’t scared at all—he’s quite brave for his age.” Qin Xue had worried he might show some signs of distress, but there hadn’t been any noise throughout the night.

“That’s good.” The grandmother nodded in relief. She’d been prepared to help calm the child down if he’d been frightened, but hearing there were no problems was the best news.

“By the way, Grandma, why don’t you and Grandpa come inside the room? Chu Molin and the others are playing with the kids there. Sit down, have some tea, and chat—don’t just stand around here.” Qin Xue wiped her hands and took off her apron.

“You go about your business. Us two old bones don’t need you fussing over us.” The grandmother couldn’t help but laugh. This house was practically her second home—she was here often. If Qin Xue had to attend to her, it would feel entirely unnecessary. After all, family doesn’t need to be overly formal.
