Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1027

Chapter 1027: Chapter 900: Shi Tou Tells "Stories

On New Year’s Eve, with so many guests of all sizes accompanying the celebration, Zhou Xiaozheng waved his hand and naturally couldn’t go out personally. Secretary Chen somehow transported back two large boxes of fireworks and firecrackers.

With these young lads around, Zhang Guoqing was not worried about the inconvenience of the twins going out. He wrapped them in army coats and took his three sons along with several nephews and nieces out every day.

The Zhou Family has good genes, possibly producing a handsome guy like Zhang Guoqing, whose parents Mr. Zhang and Mother Zhang weren’t ugly like Juhua either. Especially in this era, a lineup of handsome boys, each with an impressive aura, their tall and long-legged stout physiques becoming a striking spectacle, capturing one’s attention.

Of course, besides these advantages, there’s also a fatal flaw: they have a great appetite and eat exceptionally well. Half-grown boys can eat a father to death. This isn’t just talk.

For the hotpot, Zhang Guoqing prided himself on being a good eater, cutting five pounds of lamb slices thinking it was enough. He figured the kids who had been out for a while would be craving meat.

He purposely brought a big lamb leg, slicing and shaving about fifty pounds of lamb slices, also planning to cut more in case someone got hungry late at night.

A big plate of fish balls, a big plate of potato slices, a big plate of stewed meat bones, a big plate of frozen tofu, a big plate of cabbage slices, plus a big bundle of vermicelli.

Why say it’s a big plate?

The table couldn’t fit everything, so they set up an additional folding table. You can imagine how big the plates were.

After sending off Zhou Xiaozheng, who departed first, Zhang Guoqing turned around...

The result was, it was over; even the twins were stuffed, not to mention those few who drank and ate heartily, all still burping.

He and Zhou Jiao were so frightened that they boiled hawthorn and felt pulses, worried that they might have to go to the hospital before New Year’s Eve was even over. Then, each of them shook their heads, saying to their little uncle and aunt (old uncle and aunt), "At last, we’re full."

Right, they were really just full.

They went to the bathroom, took a pee, blew cold wind in the yard, and within half an hour, they were playing with firecrackers again. After an hour, they returned to the living room, grabbing sticky rice dumplings and buns to stuff their mouths.

Watching this made Zhou Jiao’s stomach ache, she worried for how full these kids were getting. It was only several days later that she learned during their time out all meals were free, and they had spent all their food vouchers, or they would’ve wanted to go to the South to play.

These kids are relatively sensible too; after New Year’s Eve, starting from the morning of the first day of the New Year, they controlled their food intake. But since Zhou Jiao had already grasped their appetite, how could she just let them taste tiny-sized dumplings and call it a day?

From that day on, the Zhou Family started buying buns from the cafeteria daily. Each solid bun weighing about four ounces, even Zhang Guoqing could only eat one to be full.

Yet kids, even with extra oil and water, needed three, the younger ones like Shi Tou and Zicong needed two each too. It left Zhang Guoqing worrying and fretting over his brother and sister’s kids.

Such would eaters, who could possibly raise them?

This year, without the temple fair, Zhang Guoqing could only pull his wife and take a group of kids to the city for sightseeing and photo-taking.

The experience was filled with joy and sorrow, often rendering one half-laughing and half-crying. Accompanying them until the Fifth Day of the New Year, Zhang Guoqing and even Zhou Jiao had to return to work.
