Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1360: Chapter 1360 The Sun Rises from the West

”Brother and sister-in-law are back!” Song Yueqin called out to them from a distance.

An Hao was startled by Song Yueqin’s unusual behavior, completely taken aback. She incredulously turned to Qin Jian, ”She was calling us, wasn’t she?”

Qin Jian nodded, his voice calm, ”The sun must have risen from the west today.”

Seeing Qin Jian and An Hao’s surprised expressions, Song Yueqin didn’t explain further but simply smiled and said, ”Today is Uncle An’s birthday, right? You two should hurry back. Isn’t Qin Fen coming home from detention today? I’m going to town to pick him up.”

With that, she smiled, brushing past the two of them.

This scene left An Hao and Qin Jian completely baffled; not until Song Yueqin had walked away did An Hao say to Qin Jian, ”I didn’t hear wrong, did I? Was she talking to us? How could she have changed so much after not seeing her for a while?”

”Terrains can shift, but nature is hard to change. How could it be so easy to change?” After the incident where Song Yueqin stole his shorts, his disdain for her had deepened substantially.

”Let it be. Whatever she’s scheming, as long as it doesn’t interfere with our lives, it’s all good.” An Hao had always had problems with Song Yueqin; they would start arguing at the slightest disagreement.

Now, she was tired of all these.

As long as Song Yueqin left her in peace, everything was negotiable.

The couple, carrying gifts, went back home, and as they entered the front door, they heard lively noises and laughter coming from inside.

As An Hao walked, she listened to the voices continuously pouring into her ears.

”Old An! Now that you’re getting older and your children aren’t around, you should find a companion,” someone suggested.

”Yes, who else will spend your fortune when you’re gone?” another added.

”No, no, no! Let’s not joke about that. I’m too old to be finding someone now; it would only make me a laughingstock. Besides, after An Hao’s mom passed away, I found Bai Xue, and everyone saw how she was with the children. I think I was fairly good to her. In the end... it didn’t amount to anything...let’s not talk about it! Those years were actually the toughest for my daughter An Hao.”

Now, thankfully, life had become easier. He had sons and daughters, and soon, he would have a granddaughter or such, and a quiet life was perfectly fine.

He really didn’t want to stir up any trouble anymore, lest another ’Bai Xue Mei’ bring endless noisy days.

Hearing An Shuchao’s words, An Hao reflected on the difficult past, but thankfully, all of that was behind them now.

Although today wasn’t completely serene, having Qin Jian always supportive behind her was enough.

In just over a month, when the two little ones in her belly were safely born, everything would really be as she wished.

A smile appeared on An Hao’s lips as she slowly ascended the steps, her very large belly in front of her, with Qin Jian’s long arm around her, always her rock-solid support.

”What are you thinking about?” Qin Jian casually asked as he looked down and saw the smile at the corner of her mouth.

”Nothing much,” An Hao chuckled lightly, lifting the bamboo curtain of the house.

The already lively room buzzed even more with excitement upon seeing An Hao and her son-in-law’s arrival.

”Oh, An Hao is back, everyone! Let’s welcome her, our very goddess of wealth!” someone exclaimed, and applause suddenly filled the air.
