Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2462: Chapter 2456: Another Responsibility

”Tsk tsk, so you’re such a naughty master, but I like it.” Xue Ling didn’t actually think Qin Xue was bad; rather, she believed this was how Qin Xue should be. She couldn’t always yield. After all, she was the master. How could she let the Red Snake do whatever it wanted all the time? If Qin Xue hadn’t spoken, Xue Ling would have let the Red Snake know why the flower is so red.

The Red Snake was unaware of the interaction between Qin Xue and Xue Ling. Otherwise, it might have burst into tears. Faced with such a master, it really didn’t know whether to follow or not. It was too heartbroken.

”Only you would like someone as bad as me. Aren’t you afraid I’d do the same to you?” Qin Xue was curious. Why was Xue Ling different with her?

”No, you’re not like that. I’m your mark, you wouldn’t throw away your own flesh.” Xue Ling was a birthmark on Qin Xue’s body, something akin to her child. How could she not want it?

”I find you really understand my heart.” Indeed, Qin Xue wouldn’t act that way, but there were exceptions, such as the Red Snake, which she didn’t want.

”Master, the child in your belly has a detoxifying effect before it’s born. But I’m not sure if it will after birth, so you must protect yourself and the child. Make sure no one knows you currently possess this ability, okay?” Xue Ling began to worry about Qin Xue’s safety. It cared for Qin Xue as if she were its own child. Unfortunately, it was an artifact spirit, hadn’t given birth, and didn’t even know if it could have children. Ugh, where was it going with these thoughts? Truly, Qin Xue had led it astray.

”So, what I suspected before was correct. During that time in Zhongzhai, it really was because of the child in my belly.” Back then, she didn’t know she was pregnant. But after suddenly gaining a purification ability, she never thought about it. She just assumed she had developed a superpower, and when the Red Snake bit her later, she still didn’t connect the dots. If it hadn’t been for the reaction on the snowy mountain, thinking it might be altitude sickness, she wouldn’t have taken her own pulse. To her surprise, not only was she pregnant, but it had been three months. She always thought she had just gained weight and would never have considered this possibility. Luckily, she hadn’t carelessly taken medicine, or else she really wouldn’t know if she could keep this child. To Qin Xue, this child meant something different. She really didn’t want anything to happen to her. She wouldn’t say anything to Chu Molin, but she knew her own thoughts. She wouldn’t have a third child again; having these five children was already enough for them to raise.

Qin Xue placed her hand on her belly, where two little lives resided now. In the future, she had more responsibility. Before, having never been a mother, she didn’t know how heavy the responsibility was. After giving birth to two sons, she suddenly felt the pressure increase. But with Xue Ling’s help, she became the most relaxed she had ever been. Now that she was pregnant again, she felt the pressure on her was increasing once more. So when Chu Molin thought she was working regardless of time, she didn’t tell him. With more children, expenses would also increase. She wanted to give her children the best life possible, so she felt she had to work hard. She couldn’t let Chu Molin bear all the burden because of the children. However, as a mother, she couldn’t demand that the father not contribute. That would be unfair to him.

Qin Xue’s thoughts were simple and her actions even simpler, which was why they didn’t have many conflicts. This was also why they could always consider each other’s needs. At such times, they always thought of not letting the other person be too exhausted. Qin Xue did more, so afterward, Chu Molin wouldn’t argue with her. Because he knew the challenges his wife faced and felt too much pity for her, he couldn’t bear to argue with her.
