"I don’t know, I just saw you deep in thought, so I guessed you were contemplating sothing." Chu Molin was standing a bit farther away from them earlier and didn’t hear what they were saying; how could he have known?
His wife rarely delved so deeply into thought, so he figured sothing must be troubling her.
"It’s not a big deal, just that the woman nad Su Jin is a seamstress, and I was thinking about whether she would co to work for ." Qin Xue considered that a good seamstress is hard to co by, and having her join would be a significant boon.
If she doesn’t co, Qin Xue would have to make more trips since she truly needed such a talent.
Now that her husband had seen through her concerns, perhaps she could talk it over with him.
"When soone wants to be strong, they seize every opportunity, but on the contrary, when soone forsakes their self-respect, they’d rather be trampled underfoot and unable to rise again. So don’t overthink; this is human nature, and I think you’re more aware of this than I am." Chu Molin looked at his wife, who was usually very confident but seed slightly different in front of Su Jin.
"I know, it’s just that Su Jin has a broken palm line, do you know what that ans?" Qin Xue asked Chu Molin.
"That’s just superstitious nonsense; how could it really curse a husband? If it did, how did she have a husband and raise a child to such an age?" Chu Molin knew but didn’t believe it.
"But many people believe it, and such a woman has walked through all kinds of accusations. Do you know what that ans?" Qin Xue was concerned about this issue, nothing else.
"People like her are more resilient; those who survive have already been hurt in a thousand ways inside and don’t even feel pain anymore, so nothing can wound her," Chu Molin answered Qin Xue without hesitation.
"Exactly, if she doesn’t want to co, what reason can I use to persuade her to work for ? Soone who fears nothing, there’s got to be sothing or soone she cares about." Qin Xue thought for a long ti before finally hitting on a crucial point.
"Children." The couple spoke the word simultaneously while looking at each other.
"Yes, it’s the children. She only shows emotion when it cos to children. When I asked about her family, she defended them, but without emotional fluctuation." Qin Xue recalled Su Jin’s deanor from start to finish; only the child could move her.
The two n had never received even a glance from her. When her husband arrived, she cried, but everything she said and how she looked were focused on the child by Qing Zhu’s side, so at that ti she was only considering that the child’s father had co, and the child wasn’t forgotten by its father, and that’s what moved her.
"Then you can use this reason." Chu Molin understood his wife’s intentions.
"Alright, I will. If she doesn’t co to , I’ll go to her, and then she and Dongfang Li can have company. And I’ll have a master for my work." Qin Xue nodded, feeling quite clever.
"Mhm." Chu Molin didn’t interfere with his wife’s decision.
"Chu Molin, don’t you think I’m too calculating, always talking about interests?" Qin Xue wanted to know what Chu Molin would think of her knowing she was this way.
