Chapter 148: Meeting of Sister and Brother

The family of the second aunt is already gone, Yun Bi did not return today, and Yun Fei has already gone to the Military District; only Grandmother, the eldest aunt, and the eldest sister-in-law are at home.

The four of them ate a bite of food, and Grandmother asked, "Is Beibei doing well?"

After an investigation, the Yun Family naturally knows about An Xiangbei.

However, An Yinan has only just accepted the Yun Family, so they dare not speak too urgently, fearing they might scare the little girl away; of course, this line of thinking belongs to Liu Xicai, for Yun Fei does not believe there is anything that could scare this little girl.

"Grandmother, Beibei is very well, and he is in Beijing now too. In a couple of days, I will bring him to see you." An Yinan has already accepted the Yun Family, and she also hopes that Beibei will have more people to love him; her Beibei is worthy of everyone's love.

"Good, good." Grandmother is advanced in age and lacks energy; having been filled with worry and anxiety for so many years, her health has become increasingly poor.

After saying a few words, she had to return to her room to rest.

Liu Xicai said, "Actually, the reason we are so anxious also has to do with your grandmother; she damaged her foundation when she was young, and her health gets worse year by year."

She was afraid that the Yun Family being so pushy would make the little girl feel uncomfortable.

An Yinan, however, did not think so much; the character of the Yun Family is trustworthy, so she had far fewer concerns.

"We have to meet sooner or later; I will ask for Beibei's opinion first." Beibei's personality has already formed, and An Yinan often seeks his opinion; it is a form of cultivation, and also a form of letting go.

"Good." Seeing that An Yinan was not resistant, Liu Xicai finally set her mind at ease.

The next day, An Yinan followed the address to a Siheyuan; this was the address Peng Yanling had left for her. It was originally their property, which was confiscated after they were sent down to the Cowshed, but now that they have been restored to their original positions, the property has naturally been returned.

However, the house was ultimately quite dilapidated, and it took them several months of repairs before they could move in.

Early in the morning, An Yinan knocked on the door.

Peng Yanling was just about to go to work when she heard the knocking, and she was a bit surprised. After they returned, she had cut off contact with all her relatives; when their family of three was sent down to the Cowshed, no one had helped them, and now that she was back, she was angry and ignored everyone.

The relatives saw through this, and one by one, they stopped coming over.

Opening the door and seeing An Yinan, Peng Yanling smiled happily, "Nan Nan, why didn't you tell me when you came to Beijing? You just arrived without a sound."

An Yinan took Peng Yanling's arm, "Isn't this because I wanted to give Peng Yi a surprise?"

Peng Yanling's lips curled up instantly, and the joy on her face could not be hidden, "You girl, if you had told me earlier, I could have gone to pick you up and arranged a place for you to stay."

An Yinan held back the busy Peng Yanling, "Peng Yi, I have a place to stay now; I came over today mainly to see Beibei and Yun Shen."

Thinking about it, it has been almost half a year since they last met, and she truly misses these two little ones.

Although they were busy before, and she was busy too, they could still see each other every day at mealtime; suddenly coming to Beijing, it took her a long time to adapt.

"Those two little ones went for a run, they should be back in a moment; they will surely jump for joy when they see you've come," Peng Yanling said.

An Yinan thought of that scene and could not help but laugh.

"By the way, that guess of yours should be correct; textbook knowledge must be grasped. Now the country's development is very rapid, and more and more intellectuals are needed; your speculation at the time had a high degree of certainty." Every time Peng Yanling thought of the young girl's speculation, she could not help but marvel.

Things that even they as adults could not see through, this child saw so clearly.

An Yinan was caught between laughter and tears; it was not that she saw through it, nor that she speculated it through, but that she knew that period of history.

But there was no way to explain this, so she could only bite the bullet and accept it.

It was just that she felt a bit unworthy of the praise.

Only by making herself constantly excellent, even more excellent, could she keep these people from being disappointed.

The two of them chatted about daily life, talked about the customs of Quanshui Village, and mentioned Mo Shu and Chen Xun, who were far away at the Northern Camp.

Then they heard the sound of the door being pushed open.

"Look at you two, covered in sweat; hurry up and wipe yourselves clean, then come to the main hall to see who is here." Peng Yanling blocked An Yinan's path to go out, wanting to give them a surprise.

An Yinan then obediently sat down on a chair.

After a while, Yun Shen and Beibei came from their room to the main hall, and only then did they see An Yinan sitting to the side drinking tea.

"Sister." Beibei cheered happily.

"Sister Nan." Yun Shen also showed his teeth and smiled shyly.

Peng Yanling looked at the two children and laughed out loud, "Is that enough of a surprise?"

"Mm-hmm, such a surprise." Mo Yunshen quickly replied to his mother.

As for Beibei, he looked at his sister earnestly; she hadn't lost weight, and only then was he relieved. He walked to An Yinan's side and leaned against his sister's arm.

"Sister, why did you come to Beijing?" Beibei asked seriously; if he remembered correctly, at this time of year, the harvest in Quanshui Village had just finished, right?

When she wrote last time, his sister even said she was relaxing her mind after the harvest.

An Yinan rubbed his head, "I started a project with some universities, and this time, as the project lead, I came over to give the first series of lectures."

Peng Yanling was startled and looked at the serious An Yinan.

"It wouldn't be that Mind Map, would it?"

An Yinan's eyes lit up, "Peng Yi knows about it too?"

At this moment, shock was not enough to describe her feelings; Peng Yanling never imagined that the person in charge of the Mind Map they had been longing for would be An Yinan.

"How could I not know? Every major college and every Project Department has pulled people to specifically undergo training for this project."

"You don't know how much everyone is looking forward to meeting the genius who designed this Mind Map."

"And this person who made the complete map for physics—the Physics Research Institute's tails are almost wagging in the sky; those of us in the Project Departments all want to take them down a peg."

Speaking of the project, Peng Yanling was eloquent and unstoppable.

Mo Yunshen and Beibei looked at each other; hearing Peng Yanling's tone, they knew how impressive this project was, and they never expected the person in charge of this project to be An Yinan.

This made their admiration for An Yinan go up another level.

"Haha, actually, it just uses some techniques; these are very easy to grasp, and everyone will be able to use Mind Maps for future projects." An Yinan was also a bit embarrassed.

For the maps she was used to using in later generations, she was just a porter of knowledge.

"It just so happens that I am the one pulled from the biology project department," Peng Yanling said triumphantly.

An Yinan smiled, "That's great then."

"By the way, this project lasts for two days, scheduled for Saturday and Sunday—that is, tomorrow and the day after. You two should go and listen as well; it should be of great use to your studies." An Yinan looked at the two little ones.

A Mind Map is not a fixed project; it can be applied to every aspect.
