Chapter 997: Chapter 991: Gossipy Woman_1
One might wonder why Qin Jiale assumed Xue Ling was sleeping instead of something else. It was because they had arrived very late the night before, leaving everyone exhausted. Moreover, they were strangers in the village. Based on these clues, she guessed that Xue Ling was still sleeping.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xue remembered that she hadnât yet brought Xue Ling out of her space. It was fortunate that her sister didnât go to her room to look for people, otherwise she would have been caught in her lie directly.
After sharing a look with Chu Molin, he reached out to take the child from Qin Xueâs arms. If he held the child, his wife could return to her room and bring Xue Ling out.
âXueâer, give the child to me. Go wake Xue Ling, itâs already past noon and sheâs still not up, she wonât be able to sleep tonight if she sleeps too much now.â Chu Molin made up an excuse for Xue Ling. He did this to avoid any missteps his wife might make in speech.
âOkay, hold the baby carefully, donât drop him.â The thought had occurred to Qin Xue too, but her idea was to bring the child back to the room. Seeing Chu Molinâs suggestion now, she decided to hand over the child to him, saving herself the trouble of carrying the baby around.
âOkay,â Chu Molin gave her a short reply, not uttering any more words.
âXue Ling, come out quickly. I forgot that you were still in the space. If Lele hadnât mentioned you, I wouldnât have remembered that you were in the space last night. I heard that my parents would return in the afternoon, itâs already noon now, so you canât stay in the space anymore.â As soon as Qin Xue entered the room, she bolted the door and then entered the space. Seeing Xue Ling cultivating there, she blurted out a string of words.
âMaster, youâre here.â Xue Ling spoke as soon as she heard Qin Xueâs voice.
âYes, did you hear what I just said?â Qin Xue looked at Xue Ling and asked.
âI heard you, donât worry, Iâll transform into a little girl right away.â Xue Ling didnât argue about leaving. Although training in the outside world was slower, it was lively and made her feel less lonely.
âGood, do you know what to say if the family asks about you?â Qin Xue asked Xue Ling after hearing her response.
âI know, be at ease. Where did you guys go to play today?â Xue Ling hadnât been able to perceive Qin Xueâs plans, so she had no idea what had happened today. All she could do was ask Qin Xue.
âWe dealt with some gossipy women, thatâs all.â Qin Xue didnât go into detail about the events, all the annoyances were not worth bothering Xue Ling.
âAs long as there are no problems.â If youâre wondering why Xue Ling knew Qin Xue left, it could sense it, though it didnât know the details. Unless it used its divine sense to probe Qin Xueâs thoughts, it would be helpless and know nothing.
After Qin Xue called out Xue Ling, she began preparing food in time for her parentsâ return. The elders finished shelling the peanuts and started taking care of the child. Chu Molin addressed Qin Xue, then went to the market to pick up his in-laws.
He had dropped them off at the market in the morning, so he knew where the store was. The timing of his visit was due to his younger sister-in-lawâs information about her parentsâ closing time. He would arrive just in time to help pack up the stall. Chu Molin didnât mind at all, it was his duty to show filial piety.
