Chapter 16 Drink up barley porridge

Although I was very puzzled, but it was rare for Zhang Nan to be overcast and cloudy, I walked over and took out the ingredients from the bag neatly and asked, "Why did you buy so much?"

"Mom called in the morning. Dad and sister are going home for dinner at noon." While Zhang Nan was speaking, Xu Anzhi had already brought some things into the kitchen.

Family reunion at noon?If it is true that Maomao is at my aunt's house as my mother-in-law said, will I be able to see her later?Thinking of seeing Maomao, my mood immediately became better. I was worried that my mother-in-law would see Xu Anzhi busy in the kitchen with her big belly and scold me when she came home. I walked in with other things and said to her coldly: "I'll come, take a break."

Xu Anzhi was not polite, she left the things in her hands and went out, I didn't pay attention to what he was talking to Zhang Nan in a low voice, I just thought that I might see Mao Mao later.At noon, Zhang Nan's three older sisters came back earlier than her mother-in-law.Hearing their voices from outside the door, I put down what I was doing and rushed out, "Elder Sister, Second Sister, Third Sister." While speaking, I looked around.Unfortunately, there are only three of them, and there is no shadow of Mao Mao.

The eldest sister, Zhang Xin, lives not too far away, and we have met a little more times, and we are more familiar. She first greeted me with a smile.The second sister Zhang Yun and the third sister Zhang Luo rarely come back from abroad, so they only met once or twice. They completely ignored me and only cared about the child in Xu Anzhi's belly.

I turned around and went back to the kitchen. Zhang Xin came in to help, and asked solemnly, "Ke An, I heard something happened to your father?"

"Well, he's in the hospital."

"It's not this." Zhang Xin said mysteriously, "Is this just an announcement?"

I was taken aback, and pretended to be stupid with a little nervousness: "Sister, what's the matter?"

"You really don't know, do you? Your brother-in-law was seconded to Ningchuan City last month, which is the end of the struggle to deal with the problems left over from the previous leadership team. During the investigation, your father's business"

Zhang Xin's husband was seconded to Ningchuan City, so what she knew about the situation must not be too one-sided.But I still pretended to be ignorant as much as possible and asked, "Sister, what happened to my father's business?"

Maybe it's because I usually don't talk much, or maybe I didn't react when I saw Xu Anzhi and I living in the same room. Zhang Xin seemed to believe what I said: "Your dad's actual assets are only 2 million now, but It owes 2.5 million yuan to the state. There are also a lot of private funds.”

I just felt a buzzing in my head. It seemed that this matter could not be concealed any longer. I asked cautiously, "Sister, do my parents know about this?" Just as Zhang Xin was about to answer me, a voice came from outside the door. The voices of mother-in-law and father-in-law, she turned to go out, I grabbed his clothes and said, "Sister"

Later, Mama Liu went into the kitchen to take over from me, maybe it was because of her innermost feelings, but after going out, everyone looked different.Xu Anzhi acted coquettishly in front of Zhang Nan and argued that she was hungry. In order to escape this awkward atmosphere, I got up quickly and went into the kitchen to bring out a few bowls of barley porridge that I made in the morning.

When the barley porridge was brought out, Xu Anzhi kept saying it was delicious as soon as she took a sip. Before everyone could stop her, she drank up her and Zhang Nan's portion in one go.
