After being reborn in 70, she took back her huge family property and joined the army.

Qin Xiaoran's eyes moved away from the woman's belly, which was about four or five months old, and looked at the woman's face, which was about forty or fifty years old. After digesting the slight sense of disobedience in her heart, she asked calmly.

"Excuse me, does An Ning live here?"

The woman's sizing movement was interrupted, her face showed a look of realization, and she squeezed out a friendly smile.

"It turns out I'm looking for An Ning. Why would a beautiful girl come to this poor alley? Come on, come on. An Ning is in the house."

Qin Xiaoran entered the courtyard. The inside of the courtyard was more dilapidated than the outside. It looked like ruins. Half of them had collapsed. Only a few rooms in the corners were still intact.

After closing the useless door, the woman turned around and explained, "This was all smashed up a few years ago. It was a good house. Alas."

Qin Xiaoran said nothing about this and just followed the woman to the houses on the corner.

"An Ning, An Ning, your friend is here to see you, come out and entertain him."

An Ning walked out of one of the small rooms, and a flash of joy flashed across her indifferent face when she saw Qin Xiaoran.

"Xiaoran, you're here."

Seeing that An Ning was in good condition, Qin Xiaoran also smiled.

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I thought I should come and see you. By the way, these are the New Year's goods I prepared. Please keep them."

An Ning was flattered and took a look at the new year's goods, feeling very embarrassed.

"How dare you accept such a valuable thing!"

But she also knew that Qin Xiaoran had brought it all over, and it would be inappropriate not to accept it, not to mention that Qin Xiaoran had never taken back the things he wanted to give.

She thought about things she could give away at home that Qin Xiaoran might like, but in the end she didn't think of anything suitable. Only some ancient books and relics secretly hidden by her father were suitable, but giving these away at this time would be a mistake if she was not careful. It would hurt people, which really put her in a bit of trouble.

Qin Xiaoran was already familiar with An Ning's character and didn't say anything. He just looked at the situation in the room and waited for An Ning to figure it out.

This was the case when she was in the family home. Whatever she gave to An Ning, An Ning would immediately return items of equivalent value. When she saw a doctor, she would prepare medical fees and thank you gifts, not wanting to owe her anything.

She doesn't dislike this kind of personality, but sometimes it's inevitable that she feels a little tired of An Ning, and she always has to think about it.

But this was An Ning's habit of doing things. She didn't want to say anything, she just observed the surrounding situation.

The former splendor and sophistication of this courtyard can be vaguely seen, but that is completely in the past. Now there are only four rooms left, two of which can be clearly seen to have been newly built in the past two years. They are a bit sloppy, but they can still be lived in.

Judging from the furnishings in this room, there are some old and new. Combining some of the information I learned before, it is not difficult to guess that the new ones were mostly bought by An Ning after she came back, and the old ones are mostly original. It seems that An Ning My father's life was indeed not very good.

But who is that pregnant middle-aged woman?

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw the middle-aged woman walking over with a flattering smile and a pot of tea.

"I made some tea for you to drink."

An Ning and Qin Xiaoran looked at the woman together, and An Ning said, "Aunt Zhu, just rest, I'll entertain Xiaoran."

The woman called Aunt Zhu's face froze, and then she said, "Then I'll go see Lao An, and you guys have tea."

Qin Xiaoran had roughly guessed the identity of Aunt Zhu by now, but she was not sure yet. She looked at An Ning and asked tentatively.

"Who is this?"

An Ning's face was calm, "This is my dad's new wife."

Qin Xiaoran thought that it was indeed the case, and she guessed it was the same, although it was quite contrary.

She had previously learned from An Ning or others that An Ning's father was an old scholar. He and his wife had An Ning when they were in their thirties or forties. Later, his wife passed away. Fortunately, the family was well off and he raised his daughter by himself. During the movement, the An family suffered disaster due to An Ning's father's scholar status and unflexible character. Fortunately, An Ning was taken out in advance.

In her impression, An's father should be the kind of little old man who loves his daughter but doesn't know how to express it. Unexpectedly, this little old man also made a sunset red and got pregnant.

She paid attention to An Ning's reaction and saw that An Ning was neither sad nor happy. Although she frowned slightly, she didn't show much disgust. She seemed to have accepted the fact, but she was obviously not very happy either.

She didn't expect to eat this kind of melon when she came to see An Ning. She really didn't know what to say.

Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite.

Speaking of which, this book of the Huo family is quite easy to read.

Just as she was thinking about it, An Ning suddenly spoke.

"I still have some old white tea cakes at home. You can take one with you later. I remember your old man likes this."

Qin Xiaoran said a few polite words, but didn't refuse.

Seeing that she agreed to accept the tea cake, An Ning's brows relaxed and her expression became much more relaxed.

"It's getting late, so why not stay for a meal after coming all the way? It's not easy for us to meet like this once."

Qin Xiaoran did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

An Ning glanced at the clock and saw that it was already eleven forty. Then she stood up and said, "You have some tea first, and I'll make lunch. We'll have a good chat after lunch."

How could Qin Xiaoran just sit there like this? He immediately stood up and wanted to help. Neither of them could argue with the other, so they opened fire.

Then I saw Aunt Zhu supporting the skinny sixty-year-old father An out of the room.

Aunt Zhu helped An's father sit down at the table, quickly walked to the kitchen, and snatched the kitchen knife from An Ning's hand.

"I'll do it, I'll do it. How can I let you do it? Just go sit and chat for a while."

So the two people's rejection turned into three people's rejection. Finally, the cry of the child from the house stopped the three of them. An Ning immediately went back to the house to check on the child's condition, while Qin Xiaoran and Aunt Zhu began to cooperate. meal.

By the time An Ning coaxed the child and handed the child to An's father, Qin Xiaoran and Aunt Zhu had almost cooked the meal, so An Ning had to pick up the task of serving rice and vegetables.

The two cooked four dishes, two meat and two vegetarian, fried potato slices, fried cabbage, scrambled eggs, fried bacon, and cooked a cabbage soup with multi-grain steamed buns, which was quite rich.

In the end, the four of them sat down to eat together, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Qin Xiaoran noticed for a while that Father An's personality was not strong, and he was in line with the image of a pedantic and loving old father in her imagination. Aunt Zhu was not weak-tempered, but she kept a low profile in front of Father An and An Ning, and took the initiative to take care of them at every turn. , and An Ning was neither happy nor sad about this matter, and accepted it calmly, which seemed to be harmonious.

Thinking this way, she felt relieved.

After the meal, Aunt Zhu rushed to clear the table. An's father walked in the yard with his child in his arms. Qin Xiaoran and An Ning sat together and chatted and exchanged feelings.

The two chatted for a while and then had nothing to say. Qin Xiaoran offered to take An Ning's pulse and check her current physical condition and whether her medication needed to be adjusted.

An Ning stretched out her hand for Qin Xiaoran to check. While checking, she suddenly thought of something. After struggling for a while, she said,

"Can you help my dad take a look too?"

Of course Qin Xiaoran had no problem, but this family checked two of them, and it was unreasonable not to check the third one, so they checked it together with Aunt Zhu.

After checking this, Qin Xiaoran's face became serious.

An's father is old, has a lot of problems, and his condition is not good.

Aunt Zhu, an older pregnant woman, is not in a good situation either.
