Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 759: Chapter 753: Seeing Qin Xue as Her Mother
 

After nursing her baby, Qin Xue handed the baby over to Miao Qingqing, who immediately passed it to Chu Xiaoqiao. Qin Xue stared at them, dumbfounded, wondering what on earth they were doing.

“Snap out of it, don’t just watch. Grandma Miao must be taking the baby to show off,” An Hao said after noticing Qin Xue’s expression.

“Even if that’s the case, there’s no need to be so anxious about it, right?” Qin Xue thought about how competitive these older people were — did young people only compete in terms of wealth, and older people only in terms of their grandchildren?

“Who can blame them when Molin hasn’t come home for so many years? Now that he’s back in the Imperial Capital with two children, they need to show off, right?” An Hao laughed. Qin Xue had no idea how the old people in the courtyard thought — it was quite frightening. Whenever they saw a family with new daughters-in-law or grandchildren, they’d go into an all-out comparison mode, no doubt making the ears of their younger family members grow calluses.

“Speaking of Molin, what do you think about inviting him over for dinner tonight? We can all gather at our house.” An Hao thought it would be a good idea since Qin Xue and her children were already at their house, and they could just bring Chu Molin in.

“Wouldn’t that be inappropriate? He’ll have classes, and besides, I don’t think they can leave the military school on non-rest days, right?” Qin Xue remembered that yesterday was a rest day, so it seemed unlikely that Chu Molin could be fetched out today.

“Oh, that’s not a problem. Just let Uncle Li go pick him up later. The headmaster and grandpa have a good relationship, so as long as he approves, there won’t be any issues,” Li Zhao said. However, doing so might expose Chu Molin’s identity information.

Li Zhao knew that Chu Molin’s personal information was encrypted — something ordinary people wouldn’t have access to. This was to prevent his family from being implicated since he had been very secretive even during his time in Wolf Fang.

But now that he was here, Li Zhao believed that the higher-ups had made the same arrangements for him. Because Chu Molin had carried out so many dangerous missions, these confidentiality measures were taken to protect him.

“Wouldn’t that have a negative impact on him? How about we just ask someone to check with him? If he’s willing to come, then he can come, but if not, he won’t. Is that okay?” Qin Xue said. She always heard Chu Molin say that he kept up with his coursework, so as long as his principles wouldn’t be violated, he should be able to come.

“Alright, when Uncle Li comes back later, I’ll have him ask Chu Molin what he thinks about it.” Li Zhao agreed. They couldn’t make a decision for Chu Molin. However, Li Zhao knew that soldiers were committed to obeying orders, and if their superiors gave the command, they would have to comply.

“An’an, you’re finally back! Where have you been all this time? Look at how worried you’ve made everyone. You should have let the family know before you went out,” Grandma Xiao said the moment she saw An Hao, repeating what she had heard earlier.

“Grandma, it’s just that you’re too anxious. What could happen to me?” An Hao replied helplessly, then explained why she had gone out again.

Upon hearing her granddaughter’s words, Grandma Xiao turned to look at Qin Xue, and cried out in surprise, “Shulan!”

“Hello, Grandma Xiao. My name is Qin Xue, not Shulan.” Qin Xue hadn’t expected to hear her mother’s name. It seemed her guess was correct — her mother wasn’t just an ordinary rural woman.

But she hadn’t anticipated that someone in the Imperial Capital would recognize her. If she had to say why she felt so sure of her mother’s identity, it was because she and Nangong Shulan looked so much alike. If it weren’t for the fact that life had left its mark on Nangong Shulan’s face, people would probably think they were sisters rather than mother and daughter when they stood next to each other.

“Ah, I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else.” Grandma Xiao apologized, feeling a bit embarrassed. This girl and Shulan were so similar.
