Which begs the question (almost by the way) -- how did Ron explain 
suddenly ending up with the owl soon to be known as Pigwidgeon?  As 
book 4 begins, Harry and company are still scurrying off to be alone 
and speak softly about Sirius, so Molly doesn't yet know.

As for Molly wanting to know how and why Ron is on good terms with 
Sirius -- I daresay that if Dumbledore says the man is innocent, 
that's good enough for her, especially since Sirius is quite 
obviously Against The Big V. 

Maybe the Weasleys knew all along because Dumbledore had to send an 
owl to them explaining how Ron's leg got broken? 

I'm guessing.
