Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1897: Chapter 1891: He Is Your Uncle

”Pretty self-aware, I’ll give you that.” Nangong Susu murmured to herself as she woke up and saw the living room empty.

Nangong Susu looked at the duvet someone had covered her with, thought for a moment, and decided to take it off to wash. This little episode of hers was over.

Qin Xue got up and looked at the pills they made last night; there were indeed quite a few. She and Xue Ling were busy almost until dawn before finally sleeping, and now she still felt a bit tired. But since there were things to do later, she couldn’t go back to sleep, she figured she’d steal a quick nap at noon instead.

”Xue’er, you’re up?” Chu Molin watched Qin Xue in the kitchen, wondering if she got enough sleep.

”Yeah, I’m up. I’ll wash up, have breakfast, and then head to the office.” Qin Xue knew there was work today, so she fought off her sleepiness. Otherwise, she would really like to relax a bit, because it truly was exhausting.

”Okay, I got it.” Chu Molin nodded, he had just been out for a run and was sweaty. It felt uncomfortable not to wash, so he agreed to his wife’s advice.

”Good morning, sister-in-law.” Ye Xuan rose while holding Qing Yuran, it was rare for him to get up so late; he was truly exhausted.

”Didn’t sleep well?” Qin Xue noticed his tired face and wondered what had happened to him last night.

”Yeah, Yuran was fussy all night, so I didn’t get much sleep.” Ye Xuan didn’t expect his daughter to be so restless, carrying her all night made him realize Chu Molin was right, going on a mission was easier; handling the child was a real challenge.

”Take the child to wash up and refresh yourself a bit; you’ll be meeting Dad later, and you can’t go looking like this.” Qin Xue chuckled, she was so focused on making medicine last night that she didn’t pay attention to other things. At that time, she and Xue Ling were in their own world, and unless she was consciously listening, she wouldn’t hear the surroundings. This could be both a good and bad thing.

”Got it, sister-in-law. Can you hold the little one for a bit? I’m afraid she’ll want to play nonstop once she sees the water.” Ye Xuan was already wary after last night’s experience; when Yuran played with water, she lost track of time.

”It’s okay, Chu Molin is over there, just go over.” Qin Xue smiled, it seemed Ye Xuan had learned quite a bit.

”Alright.” Ye Xuan thought of Chu Molin being there to help hold the child, which was good because managing it alone was really not easy. Now he finally understood how difficult it was for the women every day.

”Big brother, did you just get back from your run?” Ye Xuan saw Chu Molin’s clothes on the side, soaked with sweat.

”Yeah.” Chu Molin didn’t lift his head, just splashed water on his face.

”Big brother, after you’re done washing, help me hold Yuran so I can wash her face.” Ye Xuan saw Yuran staring at Chu Molin while in his arms. He was the father, but why wasn’t she looking at him like that?

”Yuran, what are you looking at?” Ye Xuan asked his daughter.

”Daddy.” Yuran blinked her big, watery eyes and uttered two words.

”Silly girl, I’m your dad, he’s your uncle, don’t mix it up again.” Ye Xuan felt like pulling his hair out, his daughter could say ’daddy,’ which made him happy, but calling the wrong person was frustrating.

Qing Yuran looked at Ye Xuan’s face without saying another word, then turned back to watch Chu Molin wash his face.

”Come on then.” Chu Molin had heard their conversation, but he said nothing. Kids at this stage suddenly make sounds, they’re not actually speaking yet, only a fool argues with children. He was a smart man, so he didn’t comment.
