Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1748: Chapter 1742: Will I Be Squeezed Out?

“No, I won’t.” Xue Ling shook its head.

“Why? How can you be so sure she won’t give me away?” Qin Xue asked, puzzled.

“That’s simple. With her kind of personality, if she said it was you, then others would know you possess such amazing abilities. The country would definitely value and utilize your talents, and you’d gain both honor and success. That is exactly what she doesn’t want to see, so she won’t say a word.

Plus, I implanted a directive in her mind: no matter what, she can’t betray you. The moment she even considers saying it, she’ll lose her voice. Even writing it down won’t work. So she won’t have the chance to sell you out. Now, are you reassured?” Xue Ling wasn’t stupid. If people found out what kind of person its master was, there would be more restrictions on her. Then how could it carry on doing things freely?

So without Qin Xue needing to instruct it, Xue Ling would never let anything happen to her. Because if Qin Xue got into trouble, it would be the first to suffer!

“So, you even helped me tie up all the loose ends. Xue Ling, you’re amazing. I love you to bits! Let me give you a kiss—mwah!” Qin Xue spoke quickly, and her actions were even faster. Before Xue Ling could react, she’d already kissed it.

“Master, it’s a good thing I’m female. If the male master found out, wouldn’t he turn me into soup?” Xue Ling shivered at the thought of being turned into soup, shaking its body in fear.

“Well, you better be careful then. He’s quite the jealous type. Even if you’re female, he might still get jealous. Then you’d really be in trouble.” Qin Xue joked with Xue Ling, laughing.

And she wasn’t entirely joking, because Chu Molin really was the jealous type. But using Xue Ling to make soup? No, that wouldn’t happen.

Chu Molin knew that Xue Ling and Qin Xue shared a symbiotic bond. Without Xue Ling, she would lose a major ally. Chu Molin wouldn’t do something so counterproductive, especially if it would harm her. That was completely out of the question.

“Alright, why is my fate so miserable? How did I end up with a master who specializes in making my life difficult? Oh, woe is me!” Xue Ling wailed theatrically.

“Okay, stop wailing. I noticed Yingying doesn’t seem to have much of an appetite because of the heat. I’m thinking of making some water chestnut cake for her. Do you want some?” Qin Xue said as she stepped into her magical space. She already had some water chestnut flour she’d prepared earlier in the space. Making it would be easy.

“Of course I want some if it’s delicious!” There was no way Xue Ling would pass up such a great opportunity.

“Alright then, I’ll make a bigger batch so everyone can have some.” Qin Xue began to pull out the water chestnut flour. Having her magical space was such a blessing. If she ever wanted to eat something, she only needed to plant seeds, and voilà.

“Master, make a lot more. I think if you make too little, it won’t be enough.” Xue Ling was fully aware that every time something new and delicious came out, it was instantly devoured.

“No worries, we can just make more after it’s finished. There’s plenty of flour here, more than enough for all of you.” Qin Xue looked at the large bag of water chestnut flour and wondered if maybe she had overstocked. But what else could she do? The magical space produced so much water chestnut, she couldn’t just let it go to waste.

So she decided to make a larger batch. She’d heard that her younger sister and the others would be on break after their exams. This way, when they returned, they’d have a treat waiting for them.

It had to be said, Qin Xue’s affection for her younger sister Qin Jiale was completely different from how she had treated her stepsister in her previous life. She genuinely cared for Jiale. Whenever there was something tasty or fun, she’d always save a portion for her.

Meanwhile, over in S Province, Qin Yu was also planning to return home. It had been a long time since he’d been back, and he missed his family. He felt he needed to go back and see them. This time, he’d leave the shop in someone else’s care.

“Brother Jin, I’ll only be gone for about ten days. Thank you for handling the shop during this time.” The person he’d hired was one of Jing Xin’s former comrades-in-arms, whom Jing Xin had asked him to help look after.
