Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1946: Chapter 1940 Chat

Early the next morning, Qin Xue got up to make breakfast. She had gone to bed late last night, but knowing she had things to do today, she didn’t dare to linger in bed, fearing she might miss important tasks, so as soon as she woke up, she got out of bed to avoid falling back asleep.

"Morning, Qin Xue," Fang Xiu said as she came out to make breakfast, only to find Qin Xue already making pancakes.

"Morning, Xiu," Qin Xue replied, not stopping her work, kneading the dough continuously—the more elastic the dough, the better it tasted.

"Need any help?" Fang Xiu asked Qin Xue after finishing her morning routine.

"Help me get the pickles from that jar to go with the porridge later." Qin Xue thought of the pickles Chu Xiaoqiao had given her yesterday that she hadn’t eaten yet. Today, they would go perfectly with the porridge.

"Where did these come from?" Fang Xiu asked, recognizing the jar but certain it wasn’t from Qin Xue’s shop.

"That girl Xiaoqiao gave them to me. How do they taste?" Qin Xue asked Fang Xiu without lifting her head.

"Let me have a taste. Hmm, can’t deny it, the taste is really good—sweet and sour, quite appetizing. If someone pregnant ate this, they could probably eat another bowl of rice." Fang Xiu thought of how people suffering from pregnancy nausea especially loved such sweet and sour flavors.

"Looks like that girl Xiaoqiao has found a business opportunity. She’ll definitely do even better in the future." Qin Xue confidently remarked after hearing this.

"I believe she can. She’s really honest in her work. How many people in today’s society are as sincere as that?" Fang Xiu thought about how most people these days were struggling to get enough to eat, trying to scrape together what they could at home, and wouldn’t give others more; after all, it was money they paid for.

But Chu Xiaoqiao was different. She always gave her customers plenty, never shortchanging them, which is why her business was doing well. While it’s just pickles, some restaurants would still order them to serve as appetizers, letting customers enjoy a taste beforehand.

It’s precisely because of this that Chu Xiaoqiao was able to come up with new samples, showing she put in the effort. People like her found it hard not to succeed.

In this regard, Fang Xiu’s opinion of Chu Xiaoqiao was remarkably consistent with Qin Xue’s. They both thought highly of Chu Xiaoqiao and were looking forward to her transformation, eagerly anticipating the day she would evolve from a chrysalis into a butterfly.

"If a businessperson lacks integrity, they won’t be able to continue. In this aspect, I think Xiaoqiao does really well. Just watch, she’ll soon achieve success, though I wonder how her family raised her, nearly letting a pearl gather dust." Speaking of this, Qin Xue was genuinely puzzled about what the Chus were thinking—they had such a good girl, yet rumors were spoiling her reputation, much like what she went through in the past.

But after partnering with her, Qin Xue witnessed Xiaoqiao’s growth step by step. At first, she was just strict with Xiaoqiao, but in the days that followed, it was all down to Xiaoqiao’s own conscientiousness. She was willing to work hard and be diligent, which was what Qin Xue most admired about her.

Even if she wanted to get married and have children in the future, or if she wanted to start her own business, Qin Xue wouldn’t object. On the contrary, she would be delighted to see that happen because it would mean her life wouldn’t be difficult, and that way, Chu Molin wouldn’t have to worry about her well-being.

That’s right, although Chu Molin never said anything, Qin Xue could tell he treated his sister Chu Xiaoqiao quite well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have refused everyone else to live in their house, letting only Xiaoqiao move in.

With such obvious preferential treatment, if Qin Xue still couldn’t understand it, she might as well return what she learned to her mentor.
