Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048: Chapter 921: An Eye for an Eye

The father-in-law and son-in-law planned everything overnight without revealing a single word to the family. Even when Zhou Jiao asked, Zhang Guoqing just mentioned that her father was still arranging things.

They assured her not to worry about her son’s safety, as there were people privately arranged for Ping’an’s protection. Even the twins went to the daycare with him personally picking and dropping them off.

Of course, no sooner had he said this than the next day, he packed his bags and left with his father-in-law. Fortunately, he had arranged personnel to handle his son’s safety matters.

Seeing their frenzied activities, Zhou Jiao, who wasn’t short on intelligence herself, thought about how to take revenge. At least those people should see where they stand in plotting against their family.

But before she could pinpoint several targets to act against.

—— Three days later, something major happened in the city. No, it should be said two sensational events occurred.

"Who would have thought that the director, usually so proper, is secretly having an affair. Did you hear it? This morning some saw him pretending to be unconscious."

"Keep your voice down; the people behind him are tough to deal with."

"Uh, right, it’s better not to gossip behind people’s backs."

"What’s there to fear? That old pervert has offended plenty. Now exposed in the square... hehe, I say we should all petition for severe punishment."

"I heard that early in the morning, the square was heavily guarded. This is not a small matter. Justice delayed is not justice denied; evil will be punished by heaven."

"This time, the three of them, do you think some people might be frightened?"

"Speak cautiously."

"..."

At the office, Zhou Jiao heard colleagues gossiping about rumors that had grown totally distorted, controlling her schadenfreude-filled smile, suspecting her husband was behind it.

Otherwise, who would maliciously bind the male colleague and his mistress naked in the square? That’s not all; they were accompanied by three unconscious men.

In front of these people were piles of antiques, paintings, and jewelry they had embezzled, conspicuously missing were notebooks. This made Zhou Jiao suspicious of Zhang Guoqing, who had gone out with her father.

You know, even with a large team working all night, it would be hard to bypass the patrols. Yet, strangely, nearly a thousand pounds of items appeared in a corner of the square.

Hmm, apart from her family’s strongman, she stopped speculating further.

"These folks have reached their end, served them right. Swallowing so much from the country, they should be executed by firing squad; not properly dealing with these people would unsettle the populace."

"Uh, let’s not talk about that; Xiao Wang, tell everyone about that matter."

"Who else got into trouble last night?"

"You guys likely don’t know. I’ll say upfront, just listen and don’t spread it externally, or I won’t dare speak."

"Stop teasing, rest assured we’re all insiders."

"Besides these events, a major incident did happen. I have a girlfriend who’s a director at the hospital. According to her, last night, some juniors were captured by spies.

Guess what happened next?

Hehe... later, an unnamed master rescued these kids. Sadly, my friend said the children remained unconscious, so clues couldn’t be extracted. This truly is a contemporary hero."

"Do you think these two events were done by the same group? Haven’t we often heard stories from elders about those nameless heroes during the days of fighting little devils?"

"Everything Mom cooks is my favorite." Ping’an handed her candy, "Even the water you pour is sweeter than others."

The little sweet talker, Zhou Jiao accepted his compliments with a grin, taking him to the kitchen. As for the two younger sons? Their grandma was with them, all giggly.

"Mom, don’t you think it’s time Dad takes my brothers hunting in the mountains? They’ve been practicing their horse stance for half a year now, and even their archery looks good."

"Isn’t it about time to return to our hometown? Your dad has few vacation days."

Ping’an already had plans, "Why not head to Uncle Mu’s place? There’s the army there; Dad can take us during a business trip—it’s not far from intriguing places like grasslands and mountains."

Zhou Jiao dared not make promises lightly. While busy with her tasks, she lowered her head in thought. With Ping’an setting an example as an older brother, the two youngest are no less than him; it’s time to take them outside for practical lessons.

"Mom, you see, we can’t even take Grandpa to the beach in summer, leaving too much free time in the summer holidays. We certainly can’t study all day or turn the little ones into real bookworms, that would be problematic."

"Hunting more, seeing blood will make us bolder than average people. Plus, see how I match veterans on the shooting range, pretending otherwise; isn’t it advantageous?"

Zhou Jiao chuckled, "Alright, after saying so much aren’t you tired? Mom will consider it; let’s raise the matter when your Dad returns."

"I knew Mom is the best."

"Alright, don’t praise too soon; everything depends on Dad’s schedule, and someone reliable must be watching you all; it’s not that simple."

"Uncle Da Yi would do."

Clearly, all plans were already in place, waiting for her consent, Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded; managing a little leisure surely can be arranged.
