Once the fish soup was ready, Ali gave the child some small toys that Su Jing'an had bought.

The child was quite energetic at this time, kicking his little legs and holding onto his toys tightly with both hands.

After Ali went out to drink fish soup, the child was placed on the kang (a heated brick bed), and Su Jing'an sat beside him watching.

Cuihua came in at this moment and whispered to Su Jing'an, "I forgot to tell you something. Some time ago, a young intellectual who had been sent to the countryside was staking out outside our house and even followed Ali. He was taken to the police station by your dad and the villagers."

Su Jing'an already knew about this. The educated youth was sent to the police station, and since no one came to his aid, he was reassigned to a mountainous area.

When they arrived in the mountainous area, they were blinded by something, lost their footing, fell into the ravine, and died instantly.

And Lin Hao's sister, Su Jing'an really didn't know that she liked him.

The Lin family also spoke with him, saying they wanted what was best for him and didn't want the matter to escalate.

Su Jing'an was eager to return home at that time, so he reported the matter directly to his superiors. The superiors said that they would definitely give him an explanation.

Because of this incident, the Lin family can no longer live in the military compound.

Su Jing'an said to Cuihua, "Mom, don't worry about these things, someone will handle them."

"You keep telling me not to worry. And also, how many days will you be able to stay this time?"

Su Jing'an simply said, "Let's see what the higher-ups decide."

When Ali entered the room, Cuihua and Su Jing'an were watching the child, who was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), kicking his little feet from time to time and making babbling noises.

When Su Jing'an saw Ali come in, he said, "I think they'll arrange a house for me there by the end of the year, and then our whole family will go there."

Cuihua said, "That won't do. We still have land at home, and we can't leave people behind."

"Then let's rent it out. I'll be the one to take care of you in your old age, so it's good for you to get familiar with the place beforehand."

Su Jing'an held Ah Li's hand and continued, "Besides, if Ah Li has another child, won't you all help watch over it?"

Cuihua then looked at Ali's belly. The couple had a good relationship, so it wasn't impossible for them to have another child.

Cuihua hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll discuss it with your father later."

Then, seeing that Su Jing'an was still holding Ah Li's hand, Cuihua said, "Then I'll go out and find your father. You two stay in the house and watch over things."

After Cuihua left, Su Jing'an hugged Ali and asked, "Does your back hurt?"

Ahri responded softly, "It's not sour anymore."

Su Jing'an whispered in Ah Li's ear, "We can just have another one later."

"Okay, whatever you say."

Ali and Su Jing'an continued kissing, and the child on the kang (a heated brick bed) felt that no one was watching him, so he started to cry.

Su Jing'an released Ah Li, then gently patted the child's bottom and said, "This kid is about to start causing trouble."

Ah Li looked at Su Jing'an with a smile and said, "It's your own fault for not being able to help yourself."

Just then, a sound came from outside.

"I heard Ahri gave birth! Where's the baby? Bring it out so we can see it."

It was Grandpa Su and Grandma Xie who returned.

Grandma Xie still didn't smile much, while Grandpa Su was all smiles.

Cuihua responded from outside, "The couple is watching inside. I'll go and call them to bring it out."

Su Jing'an raised his hand and gently tapped the child's nose, saying, "It must have been called back by your crying."

Cuihua came in at this moment and said, "The old man is back, you all come out quickly."

Cuihua picked up the child and said, "Come on, great-grandfather wants to see my little tiger, let's go out."

Cuihua carried the child out first, and Su Jing'an, holding Ali's hand, followed her out.

Ah Li thought about how the original owner and Grandma Xie got along. Most of the time, Grandma Xie had a serious expression, while the original owner was honest and dutiful.

When Ali and Su Jing'an came out, the old man of the Su family was holding the child and moving closer to the grandmother of the Xie family, saying, "He looks like Ali."

Grandma Xie rarely smiled. She said, "It does look somewhat like him, but his nose resembles Jing'an's."

"Really? Let me take a closer look."

"Grandpa, Grandma."

Su Jing'an led Ah Li up to call for help.

The old man of the Su family smiled and said to Ali, "Ali, you've worked hard. You did a great job."

Grandma Xie's smile faded, and she said, "You must live a good life from now on."

Ahri responded softly, "Mmm."

Grandma Xie said, "I rarely come back, Ali, come home with me."

Ah Li quickly went over to help Grandma Xie, but Grandma Xie said, "I'm not an old lady who can't walk anymore, I don't need help."

Ah Li silently withdrew her hand and quietly followed behind Grandma Xie.

Su Jing'an wanted to follow, but the old man stopped him, saying, "Don't go, her grandmother has something to give her."

Along the way, Ah Li followed behind Grandma Xie and met many people.

When someone greeted Grandma Xie, she didn't seem very enthusiastic.

Once they returned to the house where the original owner and Grandma Xie had lived, Grandma Xie took out the key and asked Ali to open the door.

Grandma Xie also asked Ali, "You've been married for so long, have you come back even once?"

"No."

"That's good. If you can't be a feisty person, don't be like those who go back to their parents' home at the drop of a hat."

"Um."

Ah Li was still thinking that since Grandma Xie held the keys, even if the original owner wanted to come back, she wouldn't be able to get in.

The door opened, and Grandma Xie went inside, followed by Ali.
