Chapter 2206: Chapter 2200: Think It Over Before Replying
"What’s there to be afraid of? You are you, and I am me. We are two unrelated individuals. Besides, it’s all just superstition. Who says a person with a broken palm line will definitely bring bad luck? But it is true that people with a broken palm line have a harder life because they endure a lot of strange looks." Qin Xue indeed felt that people like this had a really hard time.
It’s actually a very ordinary thing, yet it’s spent under the pointed fingers and gossip of others. You can imagine how hard that must be.
Men with a broken palm line are different, though. People say a man with a broken palm line is good and will achieve great things, but women don’t get that same fairness.
Now, hearing what Su Jin said, Qin Xue felt that Su Jin had it really tough.
"You’re different from others." Su Jin didn’t expect to hear Qin Xue say that, but for her, she’s been through all sorts of difficult things. Even if Qin Xue really said something, she wouldn’t feel much because her heart had become numb.
What could hurt more than the pain from her own family? Her own family rejected her, not to mention others. She got used to it long ago, but now hearing Qin Xue’s words, her heart was still touched a little. Because those were words she hadn’t heard in years.
"Once you’re familiar with me, you’ll find that there are more differences with me compared to others. So, are you interested in working here? Rest assured, you can bring your child when you work. We have children at home too, and they can play together." Qin Xue knew Su Jin had a child, so she thought this arrangement should alleviate her worries.
"Can I think about it?" Su Jin hadn’t discussed it with her family yet and feared they might not agree. She didn’t want to cause any extra issues, so she wanted to check first before making plans.
"Sure, but don’t take too long. I’ll give you only two days to think about it. If you don’t give me an answer after that, I’ll have to find someone else." Qin Xue had An Hao helping her to recruit, but she thought since Su Jin was good at embroidery, it would be great if she could take the lead.
"That’s for sure, I’ll give you an answer within two days. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first. The child is asleep, and I’ve asked his grandmother to watch over him. I can’t stay too late." Su Jin had no choice but to make such an arrangement. Otherwise, she would always watch over the child herself.
"Alright, I’ll keep this here. Take these back with you, for the child and your family to eat. Of course, I’m not implying anything. As you can see, we don’t lack anything here. If there’s too much food, it will spoil, so take some back and help dispose of it." Qin Xue pointed to the food on the table. She hadn’t laid out too much, but there were always snacks unmissed by the kids.
However, just because she wasn’t lacking doesn’t mean others weren’t. Last time, she heard that Su Jin’s family wasn’t well-off, but even so, Su Jin brought so much over, making it hard for her to accept.
"Who does that? It doesn’t make sense to take back what I brought. If the kids can’t finish it, you adults can help eat it." Su Jin looked at the food on the table and indeed, it was a lot, but she didn’t feel comfortable taking it back. That would be improper.
"How about this, I’ll keep what you brought, and I’ll send some of our food back with you. How does that sound?" Qin Xue saw Su Jin hesitate and had no choice but to come up with another plan.
"This..." Su Jin looked at Qin Xue in embarrassment. The things she brought weren’t as good as the ones at Qin Xue’s house. This made it even harder for her to accept.
