Chapter 1836: Chapter 1830: Home
Qin Xue felt that the wedding dress shop at An Hao’s place was somewhat monotonous with just one style, so she wanted to have some embroidery done by skilled people to create some Chinese style pieces, like a phoenix robe, similar to Hanfu, and a xiaguan crown. This way, placing them in An Hao’s shop and managing both styles together should yield better results, because diversification offers choices, and customers will feel more comfortable and satisfied.
However, she hasn’t seen how skilled Dongfang Li is yet, so she can’t decide how much to pay her monthly, and she doesn’t have the time to sit down and do embroidery herself, which immediately sparked her interest upon hearing Dongfang Li’s words.
"Really?" Dongfang Li no longer cared whether Qin Xue was a fraud. She was eager to resolve the matter of food and lodging. Besides, in her current situation, being deceived by Qin Xue and the others wouldn’t serve any purpose anyway, right?
But Dongfang Li didn’t know that if Qin Xue and the others were truly bad people, then Dongfang Li’s current state is actually the most valuable, you know.
In later years, Nannan could be sold to others as a son, or sent to beg as a beggar on the bridge.
The child in Dongfang Li’s belly could be sold far away immediately upon birth, and Dongfang Li is not ugly. There are many men without wives; would they disdain her for being married before? Of course not, so Dongfang Li could be sold for a good price. Even if she couldn’t be sold as a wife, her organs could be sold, which is more valuable than selling her as a wife.
So, Dongfang Li’s way of thinking was quite naive. Thankfully, she was lucky enough to meet good-hearted people like Qin Xue; otherwise, her fate would truly be worrisome.
"Yes, really. Are you not afraid we might be bad people?" Qin Xue asked Dongfang Li with a half-smile.
"Are you?" Dongfang Li retorted back to Qin Xue.
"No." Of course Qin Xue wasn’t. If they were bad people, there would be no good people left in this world.
"Isn’t that settled then?" Although Dongfang Li didn’t know what Qin Xue and the others were up to, their love for the children wasn’t fake. Just for this, Dongfang Li wouldn’t be afraid.
Someone who loves children couldn’t be all that bad, and how could a man’s love for his wife allow for her sadness? If such men were bad people, she’d accept it; being their wife would be quite happy, wouldn’t it?
Dongfang Li didn’t know what they do exactly, but she really felt that Qin Xue and the others weren’t bad people. Even if she was wary before, it’s gone now.
"You sure are big-hearted." Qin Xue didn’t expect Dongfang Li to respond to her like this.
"I guess it’s just my luck." Dongfang Li felt it was her good luck, otherwise taking her son wouldn’t have been so smooth.
"Indeed." Qin Xue didn’t deny this point because she really was incredibly lucky to have met their group.
"Boss, sister-in-law, we’re home." Xiao Qi parked the car at the entrance, helping open the door and carry luggage.
"Xiao Qi, you’ve been a great help today. Once the house is tidied up, we’ll host a dinner for you someday." Qin Xue didn’t expect, upon opening the door, quite a bit of dust on the table. There’s no way to invite people in for a cup of tea or anything, so they’ll have to host them later.
"Alright, I’m looking forward to it." Xiao Qi said without reservation. Qin Xue’s cooking is good, and he hadn’t tasted her food for a long time. Hearing her mention inviting him to dinner, he quickly agreed; anyone who didn’t would be a fool.
He considers himself smart, so he agreed readily.
