Chapter 597: Chapter 592: Giving Money to Mother

The next day before dawn, Qin Xue got up and made some pastries and food for her mother and sister to eat on the road.

“Qin Xue, why did you get up so early?” Nangong Shulan saw that Qin Xue had already made a lot of food and asked with concern.

“Mom, I thought it would be more hygienic to make our own food, so I made some for you to eat on the way.” Qin Xue replied while busying herself with her work.

“You should have let me help you. It must have taken you a long time to make all this by yourself. It must have been tiring!” Nangong Shulan felt that her eldest daughter was doing so much more since becoming independent, taking charge of everything.

“Mom, it’s not a big deal. It’s just a bit of work. I just feel bad that you and my sister have to carry everything.” Qin Xue put the last pot on the stove to steam and turned to her mother.

“There’s no choice if there’s food to carry.” Nangong Shulan shook her head and laughed.

“Don’t worry, Chu Molin will take you to the train, help you with the luggage, then send a telegram to dad to pick you up at the station. Mom, you need to be careful on the train and pay attention to your surroundings, so no thieves target you, alright?” Qin Xue was worried about the two women traveling alone.

But since her brother had to watch the shop during the day and attend night school, she couldn’t leave the two children, and Chu Molin had training, so she had no choice but to send her mom and sister home alone.

“I know, why are you fussing so much? I’m not a little child who knows nothing.” Nangong Shulan was at a loss for words. It was as if she had never traveled far.

“Mom, come here,” Qin Xue pulled her mother into the bedroom and took out US$300 to give her.

“Qin Xue, what are you doing? Keep it!” Nangong Shulan was shocked by her daughter’s sudden gesture. Last time, she had given her hundreds of dollars, and now she was giving more. Nangong Shulan hurriedly pushed the money back, not wanting to take her daughter’s money.

“Mom, please take it. Use it to pay for Lele’s school fees and living expenses. You want to make money through small businesses, right? You need capital to buy things, don’t you?

Before, I was useless and always made you worry. Now I can make my own money, so you should enjoy the benefits of having a daughter.” Qin Xue didn’t take the money back but placed it in her mother’s hand, hoping she would accept it.

“But you have two children to raise, and a home to manage. You can’t always think of us. This will cause a rift between you and Molin in the future.” Nangong Shulan was happy her daughter thought of her family, but what she wanted most was for her daughter to be happy and get along well with her son-in-law.

“Mom, don’t worry, Chu Molin knows about this. He’s the one who told me to give it to you. Please take it.” Qin Xue dragged Chu Molin into the conversation to make her mother feel at ease. In fact, since Chu Molin handed over the family finances to her, he never interfered with how she used the money.

“Alright, I’ll accept it this time, but don’t do this again. Understand?” Nangong Shulan really needed start-up capital. She would consider this a loan and repay her daughter once she made money.

“Yes, yes. Also, this is ginseng, tuber fleeceflower, and Panax notoginseng. When you get back, give a smaller portion to grandpa and grandma, and take out a little to make medicinal wine for dad to drink. Keep the rest at home, alright?” Qin Xue handed the packed herbs to her mother.

Nangong Shulan was nearly frightened to death. This was even more shocking than receiving the US$300.

“Qin Xue, have you done something wrong? Don’t do anything foolish, alright?” Nangong Shulan couldn’t afford even a gram of Panax notoginseng, let alone ginseng.

That’s because it was a rare commodity, hard to find and expensive.

“Mom, what are you thinking? I needed these for the shop when I bought medicinal herbs last time, so I asked someone to find them.” Qin Xue looked at her mother with a bitter smile, wondering where her thoughts went. These herbs were actually grown in her space.
