Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2822: Chapter 2820: Magpies Herald Joy

”So, you guys are back. I was wondering why magpies were singing in my yard this morning. I figured it must be a good omen, and sure enough, here you are! When did you return?” Xiao Qi said as he entered Chu Molin’s home and saw the family cleaning.

”Cut the chat and lend a hand.” Chu Molin couldn’t let a free helper go by, of course. He grabbed him and put him to work.

”Oh come on, I just got here and you put me to work. You never forget to exploit me, do you?” Xiao Qi grumbled but continued working without pause.

He knew how to handle household chores, so his movements were quick and efficient.

With an additional helper, Qin Xue had it much easier, yet she didn’t stop to rest. Instead, she helped with tasks that didn’t require bending down.

The group’s actions were swift, and by the time they finished cleaning, Qin Xue had prepared the meal.

It turned out that when she saw they were almost done, Qin Xue went into the kitchen to cook.

They had only had a light breakfast, and with all the work they did, they were starving. So she thought, meal on her end and cleaning on theirs would be done at the same time.

This resulted in the fastest allocation of chores and was the most effective plan.

”Sis-in-law’s cooking skills are still impeccable. I wonder when I’ll get to taste Yingying’s cooking?” Xiao Qi sighed, lamenting that she still hadn’t agreed to marry him. Who knows when she’ll finally say yes?

”Haven’t settled it with her yet?” Qin Xue shot him a look. So slow.

”Nope, she says she doesn’t want to rush into marriage. What’s with that, her belly’s so big now and still no marriage? Is she planning to be a single mom?” Xiao Qi was at his wit’s end.

”You’re right; that’s exactly what she intends. With the way she acts, this is just a small thing. If she wants something, there’s no way you can stop her.” Qin Xue nodded in agreement.

Nangong Beiying thinks just like that. She’s not afraid of being a single mom. Why not?

She isn’t afraid of much, not even herself. What’s there to be scared of? She can earn money and support a family, and there’s no reason she can’t take responsibility for a child as well. It’s obvious it’s not an issue.

”Sis-in-law, do you have any ideas?” Xiao Qi looked at Qin Xue, hoping for a solution.

”None.” Qin Xue shook her head. Among the three, Nangong Beiying is the hardest to deal with. What could she possibly do?

”You’ve got to be kidding. Does that mean I won’t even have a wife?”

Xiao Qi really had no idea what to do anymore. With his persistent pursuit, anyone else would’ve agreed long ago, but not her. She’s always lukewarm towards him, driving him crazy.

”She’s hurt by your actions. She always acts on impulse. She was going to tell you last time, but you were flirting around, not to mention her; even I wouldn’t go near you.” Qin Xue uttered mercilessly as she took a bite of her food.

Xiao Qi hadn’t expected such a result initially. Hearing it made him feel an unbearable heartache.

He was set up, okay? How could he have known what happened after he got drunk? Now he’s told it’s his fault. He understood, but what could he do to make her agree?

”What’s there to think about? However you got her pregnant, just do it again!” Chu Molin casually said, nearly scaring Xiao Qi out of his wits.

”Boss, you must be joking, right?” Xiao Qi clutched his chest, the shock was too great.
