Chapter 241

She hurried out of the space and went to open the door first.

Zhou Nan's gaze had not yet fallen on Zhi Xia, but rather through her to look at the child on the bed behind her, squeezing in and rushing to the bedside, hugging the one on the edge and coaxing him.

"Baby, why are you crying so badly, are you hungry?" Zhou Nan looked up at her and asked.

Zhi Xia took a look and was busy making milk powder, "Maybe, I'll go make some milk powder to feed."

Zhou Nan saw Zhi Xia's expression was a little wrong, as if her mind was a little distracted.

But facing this daughter, she didn't dare say much more, she could only go first to check if the babies' diapers needed changing.

With the family here now, the house was quickly crowded.

Zhi Xia was also preoccupied, so she simply left the child for them to take care of and went out to the yard herself.

The spring breeze stirred gently, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing away the hint of doubt in her heart.

No matter what the truth was in that life, after all, this life was the most important, and it was what she was experiencing. Why bother worrying about things she didn't know?

After figuring it out, Zhi Xia smiled relievedly.

She didn't know when An Zhiren came to her side, reached out and rubbed her head, and asked her in a pampering tone, "What's wrong? Do you have something on your mind?"

"No." Zhi Xia shook her head, then looked at him playfully and said, "I was just wondering, when brother gets married, what kind of gift should I give you, or does brother have any desired wedding gifts?"

Knowing that it was even more unfortunate for An Zhiren to have married another woman, it made Zhi Xia like the Zheng Suchun she saw today even more. She was a gentle and beautiful woman, and she seemed to like the second brother very much. With Zhou Granny as the matchmaker, the girl and her family's character would not be too bad either.

Not only did An Zhiren not refuse, but he seriously considered it, "Make a set of clothes for my second brother, to wear on the wedding day."

He didn't care much about the wedding before, but now, he attached great importance to it.

He also wanted a lively and warm wedding, to let others see.

"Okay." Zhi Xia agreed.

An Zhiren raised the corners of his lips. After years of setbacks, he finally had a glimmer of hope for the future.

With both sides in agreement, next was the engagement, exchange of gifts, which An Jingzhi and Zhou Nan had to go to the Zheng's house personally to discuss.

Zhi Xia had stayed here for a few days, and now wanted to take the children back.

Zhou Nan still wanted to keep her here for a few more days, using the excuse that An Zhiren would be picking up Zheng Suchun to go shopping in the city in a few days. But Zhi Xia rejected it.

The matter of Old Pei's passing away in the second half of next year could not be delayed.

On the third day after Zhi Xia went back, Old Pei couldn't persuade her. She forcibly took him to the hospital on the pretext of his cough, and even made him take a blood test to check his body, purely taking his pulse was not enough.

When they came out of the hospital, Old Pei looked at her helplessly, "I told you it was just a smoking cough, now do you believe it? Just looking at my age, ordinary young people can't compare to me. Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

Just gave the hospital several dollars for no reason, and drew such a big tube of his blood. How much food would it take to replenish that?

But Zhi Xia had good intentions. At his age, over 70 years old, it was still best to be more careful.

As soon as he heard that he should smoke less, Old Pei quickly changed the subject, "Let's hurry back home, the few children are at home, Xiao Zhang can't take care of them alone."

He had smoked all his life and never quit. And at his age, every extra day alive was a profit. The most important thing was to live a happy life afterwards. Why bother make things difficult for himself?

Seeing him like this, Zhi Xia knew he didn't take her and the doctor's words to heart.

In fact, Old Pei's idea was not wrong either. After all, at his advanced age, he just wanted to live more freely. But as the younger generation, she still hoped that the elderly at home could be healthy and live to a hundred years old.

According to the trajectory of the previous life, this old man left the house to Pei Yuhao. He was probably truly distressed about An Meixia and her son, afraid they would have no one to rely on after he passed away, so he let Pei Jing supervise and protect them. Old Pei had a bodyguard with him. Zhi Xia took another trip to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Of course she didn't buy anything, just made it look like she was shopping. She took out the fabric she needed to make clothes from her space.

An Zhiren had originally wanted to use two months to prepare for the wedding, but it happened to coincide with the spring harvest at that time. On the advice of Zhou Granny, it was brought forward by half a month, just right in April. After returning home and closing the door, Zhi Xia took out a piece of fabric similar to that of Dexinliang from her space, preparing to make a short-sleeved shirt, matched with a pair of suit pants.

Yuan Bao hadn't been eating well these past two days. Usually it could eat a bowlful, but now its appetite had been directly reduced by half. It stayed in its nest looking dispirited and listless.

Zhi Xia took it out and held it in the palm of her hand, "What's wrong Yuan Bao?"

Before Zhi Xia could finish speaking, it jumped to the ground and ran wildly around the room, clawing at the cracks in the door to look outside, screaming, looking like it wanted to go out.

Zhi Xia suddenly realized, "Yuan Bao, are you too bored staying in the space that you want to come out?"

It was her negligence. The space that came with the trading device was only the size of a few rooms. The only place Yuan Bao could move around was the living room. She couldn't always stay inside, so with just one hamster, it must have been terribly boring.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhi Xia asked, it frantically nodded its little head.

It was a treasure hunting hamster. It was born with a sense for treasures. It could go out and find treasures for its owner.

Unfortunately, the two were of different species, so Zhi Xia couldn't understand its language.

"You can go out, just play in our own yard. Chenye and Wanqing already know of your existence anyway, you can also go play with them. But outside the yard is too dangerous, best not to go..."

No matter how good looking Yuan Bao was, it was still a rat. There was no such thing as pet rats now. If it ran out and was seen by people, it would definitely be beaten to death as a pest.

Yuan Bao's ears visibly drooped again. Zhi Xia helplessly patted its head, "You little guy is quite wild. I'm just afraid of you getting beaten to death if you go out!"

Whatever it said, Zhi Xia couldn't understand anyway.

But Yuan Bao came over and tugged at Zhi Xia's pants leg, looking excited and impatient.

Zhi Xia followed it and was led to the corner of the back wall of the yard.

It made a lot of squeaking noises, constantly digging the soil below, soon digging a fist-sized hole, letting its body burrow into the ground. After a while its head popped up again, its eyes shining brightly at Zhi Xia.

Zhi Xia suddenly realized, "There wouldn't happen to be any treasures down there, would there?"

Under Zhi Xia's questioning gaze, Yuan Bao frantically nodded its little head.

Dig down, dig out the treasure, and when its owner sees its abilities, it should be allowed to go out searching for treasures then!

Having been in that magical place for several days, although there was no lack of food and drink, it was really about to go crazy from being pent up!
