Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Lacking Virtue for Eight Generations

”Yes! Sister-in-law, do you live in this building?” An Hao remembered that Zhang Jianguo didn’t live around here?

”No, we live in those bungalows over there,” Zhang Lanxiang walked through the crowd, grabbed An Hao’s hand, and looked her over from head to toe, ”Hmm, not bad. Marrying Qin Jian, he has really fattened you up.”

An Hao chuckled and leaned close to Zhang Lanxiang’s ear to whisper, ”I am pregnant. The whole family has been pampering me like a pig.”

”Really?” Zhang Lanxiang sincerely shared in her and Qin Jian’s happiness, ”Before, Jianguo mentioned that you hadn’t had children, and the Commander was really anxious. Now that you’re pregnant, he must be over the moon, right?”

”Yes.” An Hao smiled.

The two chatted briefly about family matters, and then Zhang Lanxiang asked An Hao, ”What are you up to here? I was visiting people when I heard all the commotion in the hallway.”

”I don’t know who was pulling pranks, scaring people in the middle of the night. Sister-in-law, you have no idea, Qin Jian wasn’t home and it was so dark in the hallway, it scared me to death,” An Hao said, feeling wronged.

”Is it her?” Zhang Lanxiang pointed at the person cowering in the corner, afraid to show her face, and walked up to kick her, ”Who are you? How could such people come from our compound? Lift your head and let us have a look. Scaring people in the dead of the night! My sister-in-law is pregnant, do you think she can handle being frightened like this?”

”Oh my! That is a huge sin missing in her last eight lifetimes. Not afraid of black smoke rising from the family grave!”

”Exactly! Who is this, living in the same compound, and possibly even in the same building, doing such sinful things?” The neighbors began blaming Ruan Fangfang.

”Dare you to show your face?”

”Yes, let her show her face.”

Ruan Fangfang, like a rat, burrowed into the corner and refused to come out, feeling extremely remorseful, yet didn’t dare to utter a sound.

Fearing that her voice would be recognized if she made any noise.

Even so, someone sharp-eyed could make out who it was, ”Aren’t you the deputy battalion command’s niece?”

”Oh, now that you mention it, she really is.”

”Speak up! Who are you really?” Zhang Lanxiang stepped forward to pull at Ruan Fangfang, who stubbornly refused to budge, nearly causing Zhang Lanxiang to fall over with a jerk of her hand.

An Hao quickly stepped forward to steady her.

”Look at that! To think we have such unreasonable, foolish people with such poor characters here,” Zhang Lanxiang said angrily, ”Today, whether you are a human or a ghost, I will make you show your true self.”

”Right! Let’s see who she is.”

”Kick this scum out of our compound.”

Now that Ruan Fangfang had incited public anger, and with the current battalion commander’s wife and the future regiment commander’s wife backing her up, An Hao was perfectly placed to enjoy the show.

”Come on, let’s get a few of our old sisters here; I don’t believe we can’t handle her!” Zhang Lanxiang commanded while gesturing to An Hao, ”Go get a towel, and let’s clean her face.”

”Alright.” An Hao turned on the flashlight, went into the room, filled a basin with water from the tap, brought it out, and handed it to Zhang Lanxiang, ”Sister-in-law, we don’t have a towel, so let’s just rinse her with water.”

She was also worried her face was so dirty it would stain their towel.

”Good! Great chance to wash her down since she’s so dirty. I really want to see whose heart can be this filthy!” Saying so, Zhang Lanxiang picked up the basin and splashed it down.
