Chapter 993: Chapter 987: Provocation_1
Qin Xue watched the two children and Jingtao, seeing them sensible beyond their years. Sometimes, she didn’t see them as children, but as mature adults. Despite her many years as a doctor, she had never come across children as well-behaved as them.
“Chu Molin, didn’t you say that Grandpa and Grandma are coming to our house? Have they arrived yet?” Qin Xue turned to Chu Molin, who had also come here, and asked.
“Yes, they’ve arrived a while ago and have been waiting for you. When will you go back?” Chu Molin was concerned that it was not reasonable to keep the elders waiting at home for too long.
“We’ll wait for Lele. I wonder if she has managed to catch any shrimps?” Qin Xue pondered, thinking that her little sister had been gone for half the day and should be back soon.
“Okay, let’s wait a bit longer then.” Chu Molin said, deciding to wait a little longer before heading back. They came out together, so it was customary to inform little Aunt before leaving.
“Sister, look! I’ve caught a lot of shrimps.” Qin Jiale called out enthusiastically as soon as she saw Qin Xue.
“That’s a lot indeed.” Qin Xue commented upon seeing the small cloth bag in which the shrimps were stored. She was curious as to where her sister had gotten the bag. It was indeed quite handy to have.
“Oh, when did my brother-in-law get here? Aunt Dazui gave me this bag. She used it to hold whelks, but lent it to me to keep my shrimp when she saw I had nothing to carry them in. There are some whelks in this bag too.” Chun Jiale opened another bag to show her sister.
“All right, let’s go back home and make something delicious.” Just the sight of the seafood made Qin Xue’s mouth water, longing for the taste of these fresh ingredients.
“Eat.” Jingtao echoed as soon as he heard Qin Xue’s words.
“Yes, let’s go back home and cook something delicious for Taotao. Are you excited?” Qin Xue laughed at Jingtao’s enthusiasm. He was such a little foodie.
“Mhm, eat. Brother needs to eat.” Jingtao responded. In his mind, when he thought about wanting to eat, he also thought about his two brothers who also needed to eat.
“Okay, we all eat. Let’s go home now.” Fang Xiu said gleefully, holding her son’s hand. She hoped her son understood what she was saying, but he was young and she didn’t have a voice.
“Qin Xue, these are your children, right? How wonderful, having two at once.” Aunt Dazui, who happened to see them preparing to leave, asked Qin Xue.
“Yes, are you here to watch people fishing?” Qin Xue didn’t know what to call the woman opposite her, so she didn’t address her, just responded to her question.
“Yes, I don’t have much to do at home, so I came to watch. Qin Xue, this is your man, huh? He’s really handsome.” Dazui looked at the man standing opposite her with a cold expression on his face. He was somewhat intimidating, but extraordinarily attractive.
“Hehe, you’re too kind.” Qin Xue laughed. Everyone she met complimented Chu Molin on his good looks. She’d heard it so many times it just came naturally to her.
“Actually, Qin Xue, you really got lucky. You don’t know about Su’E from the Wude family. They’re saying her husband could be her father. I only got a glimpse of him on their wedding day, but he really did look older than her father. Not like your man, it’s like night and day.” Dazui had never seen such a handsome man before, not in their village or even their street.
“Aunt Dazui, you shouldn’t say such things. You’re complimenting my brother-in-law, but you’re also putting down Qin Su’e’s husband. Are you trying to make my sister and brother-in-law the subject of gossip?” Qin Jiale didn’t want to comment, but the words didn’t sit well with her. She realized that this could potentially create resentment towards her family.
