Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1252: Chapter 1246: Picking Bones in an Egg_1 Chapter 1252: Chapter 1246: Picking Bones in an Egg_1 As for Chu Zhan, Qin Xue didn’t call anyone else for help; she wanted to see what the old man would do and whether he deserved her help.

Qin Xue didn’t disrespect elders. But sometimes, it depends on whether the elder was reasonable. If not, she was sorry; she saw no reason to respect him, especially when that person didn’t respect her. Even though this was her stance, Qin Xue didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with it.

She was sincere to others and naturally expected sincerity in return. From the moment this old man started objecting to her, she didn’t even know him. If he could treat her that way, of course, she had every right to treat him nicely or otherwise in her own house.

However, since she was the younger one, as long as Chu Zhan didn’t go too far, she would of course treat him well. This was beyond doubt.

“Granny, would you like some water?” Qin Xue put a pot of tea on the table, asking Miao Qingqing, who was playing with the kids.

“There’s no need, you go about your work. I can take care of myself.” Miao Qingqing glanced at her husband sitting beside her. Seeing Qin Xue’s attitude towards him made her want to laugh. Now he was getting a taste of his own medicine for always disliking others.

“Old man, would you like some tea?” Qin Xue asked, her voice faint as if she didn’t even know who Chu Zhan was.

“Why do you call her granny but address me as an old man?” Chu Zhan asked Qin Xue, somewhat displeased.

“Because Granny is someone I know, and as for who you are, I have no clue. If I don’t address you as an old man, what should I address you as?” Qin Xue retorted.

“Well… you’re quite sharp-tongued.” Chu Zhan was taken back by Qin Xue’s words. It was his fault for not introducing himself, but he refused to believe that she didn’t know who he was. Since she knew and still addressed him this way, it was rather unforgivable.

“Thank you for your compliment, old man.” Qin Xue replied coolly.

“Hmph.” Chu Zhan hadn’t felt humiliated in years. Surprisingly, at his old age, he experienced it once again.

“Don’t huff, sir. In our house, guests are always welcome. As long as you are happy.” Qin Xue struck back, making Chu Zhan feel somewhat uncomfortable. It felt as if he was relying on his old age to bully the younger generation.

“You…”

“If you don’t want to stay here, feel free to go back home. No one invited you.” Chu Molin appeared and saw Chu Zhan provoking Qin Xue, making him instantly angry. He hadn’t dared to upset his own wife, yet here Chu Zhan was nitpicking.

“I didn’t say anything.” Chu Zhan didn’t expect the first time he saw his grandson after so many years to be under such circumstances.

“Chu Molin, have you finished your task?” Qin Xue walked to Chu Molin’s side and asked him. She didn’t immediately explain that he had misunderstood, Chu Zhan hadn’t targeted her, but rather she appeased his anger.

“Hmm, if you can’t handle all the work, just do less.” Chu Molin softened his voice considerably when he saw that Qin Xue wasn’t angry.

“There’s no issue. I saw Granny arrive, so I just poured some water for her. It’s not as tiring as you think.” Qin Xue’s heart was full. This man was always concerned about her, worried that she would be tired or stressed. Likewise, she always worried about him.

“Well, take it easy.” Chu Molin recalled his wildness the night before, realizing that his wife still had to be busy today.

“Do I look like someone with problems?” Qin Xue approached him and whispered in his ear.

“No.” Chu Molin found it strange. If he had been this rough with her before, she would have been unable to get out of bed, looking at him pitifully and complaining that she was sore. However, today she seemed to be in good spirits, not showing any signs of fatigue. Why was that? Was it because his stamina had decreased, hence his wife didn’t feel any discomfort?
