Everyone in the room was instantly amused by the little guy's serious remark.

Lele doesn't have An'an's super memory, so she's a little confused.

But he has always been his sister's little shadow and repeater, and now he is clenching his little fist and repeating his sister's words, "Lele, also, remembers."

Guo Jingyun quickly held An'an in one arm and used the other hand to pat Lele's head.

“Our An An and Le Le are such good children. In all my years, I’ve never seen such well-behaved kids as you.”

Yang Qiaoqiao finally brought her child back, and Zheng Yulan prepared a very lavish meal for her.

I even called Lin Xiaohui beforehand to ask what An An and Le Le usually eat, and made meatballs, fish cakes and rice cakes that are suitable for them.

An An and Le Le are now learning to use a spoon on their own, but they still find it a bit difficult.

Today, Zheng Yulan prepared food that perfectly suited the two little ones' tastes. They didn't need spoons; they just held the food in their little paws and happily gnawed on it.

Yang Qiaoqiao, Qiao Haifan, Lin Xiaohui, Guo Jingyun, and Yang Jianguo and his wife chatted while eating, creating a pleasant and warm atmosphere.

At the dinner table, everyone tacitly avoided mentioning Huo Beixiao.

After dinner, An'an and Lele, the two little ones, went with Xiao Guoqing to see the chicks, ducks, and rabbits.

Zheng Yulan led Yang Qiaoqiao to her room. "Qiaoqiao, your brother prepared this room for you when we were decorating this house."

He said that no matter where you are in the future, and no matter where we live, we will always have a room for you in our home, so you will always have a home.

Yang Qiaoqiao originally thought that after experiencing her previous life, she was no longer a sentimental person.

But hearing Zheng Yulan's words now, her eyes still couldn't help but sting.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Yang Qiaoqiao said, her eyes welling up with tears.

Zheng Yulan felt sorry for Yang Qiaoqiao when she saw her like this. "Qiaoqiao, it's too formal for you to thank me."

Back when I lived in the staff and family compound, I…

Zheng Yulan's life is getting better and better now, and she doesn't want to recall the days when she lived in the staff and family compound.

He stopped halfway through his sentence and said only, "If it weren't for your selfless help back then, not only would Xiao Guoqing be gone, but I probably wouldn't be alive today either."

She had already decided that if Xiao Guoqing died, she wouldn't live either.

She found a rope and hanged herself at the Wang family's doorstep, her grief echoing through the rest of her life.

Zheng Yulan didn't talk much about the past, but called out to Yang Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, take a look around your room and see if there's anything that's not right and needs to be added. If you're missing anything, just tell your sister-in-law."

Although we live in the suburbs, there's a huge market not far away, making it convenient to buy anything.

"Okay." This time, Yang Qiaoqiao nodded and didn't thank Zheng Yulan again.

"Qiaoqiao, you take a look first. I'll go help Aunt Guo tidy up another room." Zheng Yulan said, heading off to get busy.

Yang Qiaoqiao quickly stopped her, "Sister-in-law, why do we need to clean another room?"

In this house, not only her room was kept, but Lin Xiaohui's room was also kept.

Zheng Yulan didn't understand why Yang Qiaoqiao asked that question for a moment.

If she doesn't tidy up the room, where will Mr. Qiao sleep?

Could it be that Qiao Qiao and Mr. Qiao have already...

Zheng Yulan had heard Lin Xiaohui say that in big cities like Haicheng, there are many foreigners and people who have returned from abroad.

They've all become very open-minded; not only do they hug and kiss in the street, but many couples even live together before getting married.

During dinner just now, Qiao Haifan mentioned that he grew up in the port city.

Then he must be quite open-minded; it's quite normal for him and Qiaoqiao to sleep in the same bed while dating.

Actually, in their area, there are quite a few gay couples who get together passionately before even getting married.

But this was all done secretly, for fear of being found out, and certainly not openly.

Zheng Yulan did not object to Qiao Haifan living with Yang Qiaoqiao.

only……

After thinking for a moment, she still advised Yang Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, well, your sister-in-law knows that people in big cities think differently from those in small places like ours. It's not that I'm saying you can't live in the same room as Mr. Qiao."

In a small place like ours, everyone in the neighborhood knows everything about each other's lives. You and Mr. Qiao aren't even married yet..."

Yang Qiaoqiao: ...

She never expected that Zheng Yulan would think...

She cleared her throat somewhat awkwardly and quickly interrupted Zheng Yulan, explaining, "Sister-in-law, you've misunderstood. Qiao Haifan and I are just friends, revolutionary friends, not the kind of relationship you're thinking of."

I didn't plan on him living in our house.

"Huh?" Zheng Yulan was also stunned. She had seen how Qiao Haifan took care of Yang Qiaoqiao and An Anle during the meal, as if he were An Anle's biological father.

She had already accepted that Qiao Haifan was An An Le Le's father.

Unexpectedly...

However, Zheng Yulan was also sensible. She had previously thought that Yang Qiaoqiao and Qiao Haifan were dating, which was why she said those things.

But after learning that the two were not in that kind of relationship, she didn't pry into Yang Qiaoqiao's love life.

The room that Yang Jianguo and Zheng Yulan reserved for Yang Qiaoqiao was the largest one besides their master bedroom.

Inside, there was not only a 1.5-meter-wide bed, but also a dressing table and a desk, all of which were fully equipped.

The bed sheets and duvet cover were brand new.

There was a thick layer of cotton wadding under the bed, and the quilt covering it was also fluffy and soft; clearly, everything was new.

Looking at the brand-new bed sheet, Yang Qiaoqiao felt a warm feeling in her heart.

Zheng Yulan just told her that when Yang Jianguo was setting up her room, he personally picked out the patterns for the bed sheets and blankets.

Yang Jianguo said that when she was a child, the first time she went to the supply and marketing cooperative with Lin Xiaohui, she took a fancy to this piece of floral fabric and wanted to make a dress, but at that time her family's conditions were limited and they did not have enough money coupons to buy enough fabric.

It wasn't until the following year that I saved enough money and cloth coupons, bought the cloth, and made her a dress.

Now that our family is better off, she definitely wouldn't want to use this kind of fabric to make a dress, so we bought this fabric to make her bed sheets and duvet covers.

As Yang Qiaoqiao listened to Zheng Yulan say these things, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.

She hadn't expected her brother to remember even such a small thing.

In her heart, she and Yang Jianguo were just like any other ordinary siblings. No matter how close they were when they were young, they would drift apart more or less as they grew up.

It turns out that she was the only one who had become estranged.

In her brother's heart, she will always be that little girl who loves floral dresses.
