Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1645: Chapter 1639: Can’t Bear to Leave

“This isn’t very good, is it? We don’t even know what the outcome will be. What will we do if you leave?” The Second Elder didn’t really want Qin Xue and them to stay here, but he also feared they might only live until forty years of age.

“I’ve already said it, either all of you move elsewhere, or stay and wait for time to verify things.

Anyway, those among us who are nearing forty still have a few years left, right? We are soldiers, with military duties, and cannot stay here doing nothing for long. Even if we were willing, the country wouldn’t allow it.

We don’t just serve for you, nor do we live only for you. There are many more people waiting for us to help them, so if you’re staying, you’ll just have to wait patiently.

In your village, it’s not just you few who are nearing forty, right? If it’s really due to the water, I believe that after drinking it for some time, there will eventually be changes. By then, you’ll know the outcome.

If there’s no effect, or other problems arise, if there’s anything I can help you with, I’d be more than willing to come back and assist you. But for now, we’ve been away from home for too long, and our children at home need us, so we have to return.” Qin Xue’s decision wasn’t something that could be overturned with just a few words from them.

“What you say makes sense, very well, I agree with that. But what about the Qing Teng Guardians, can’t they stay? After all, this is their home, their roots.” The Great Elder was somewhat reluctant to let Qing Teng leave, as this departure meant they would have no further ties.

“Great Elder, this was something you agreed to from the beginning, you won’t go back on your word now, will you? Besides, the Guardians are supposed to follow me, the Holy Maiden, so it’s not unreasonable that I want to keep her by my side, is it?

And Nanny is someone who raised Qing Teng. All these years, they’ve been apart. Shouldn’t Nanny have something to remember by? Qing Teng left here when she was young. Do you think it’s fair to let her stay here?” Qin Xue’s words were harsh and direct.

“I…” The Great Elder knew he was at fault in this matter, but after all, she was still his flesh and blood. Even if she didn’t acknowledge him, it was good to be able to see her occasionally.

“I agree they should go with you. What do you think, Third Elder, Fourth Elder?” The Second Elder asked the Third and Fourth Elders.

“We have no objections.” As for someone like Qing Teng, they had never had much interaction with her. If she stayed, they would have to listen to her instructions, which wasn’t practical for them, as they didn’t want such things to happen.

So, when Qin Xue said she would take them away, they naturally had no objections. Although they wouldn’t be here, didn’t Qin Xue say we could still find them if needed? So it wasn’t a loss for them, thus they had no objections at all.

“You all…” The Great Elder looked at them with some resentment. Each of them only cared about themselves.

“Great Elder, I’m sure you haven’t forgotten what I said before, right?” Qing Teng spoke calmly, looking at the situation in front of her, believing that the Great Elder would definitely agree.

Because he couldn’t bear to let his precious daughter suffer even a bit, he would definitely agree to her request.

In fact, many times Qing Teng wanted to ask him why, despite being his daughters, the treatment between the two was so different. But thinking that she had never received his acknowledgment, and her mother hadn’t said he was her father even until her death, Qing Teng could only let it go.
