Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1069

Chapter 1069: Chapter 942: Crackling Zhao Yuanyuan

"Jiao Jiao, I’ve missed you to death. Are you home? I’m here."

"Slow down, be careful not to fall." Zhang Yuntao cautiously followed behind Zhao Yuanyuan, holding their son.

Zhang Guoqing couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this voice. It had been years since he heard this "rival’s" voice, and he truly missed it.

Zhao Yuanyuan spotted him first and rolled her eyes disdainfully, "Is it you who keeps Zhou Jiao from going to the provincial city? I heard you even won’t let her go to the county town?"

"Taozi, your wife wrongs your buddy like this, and you don’t reprimand her? Where’s your backbone as a husband? Why are you grinning like a fool?"

"Learned it from you." Zhang Yuntao lifted his son up as a greeting to Zhang Guoqing, "Quick, call him Second Uncle, where’s the gift?"

Zhang Guoqing hugged the child and jokingly cursed, "You’re the second one. Is this our little dumpling? Come, call him Uncle, and I’ll buy you candy."

"You should be grateful we put you second; I’m third after Lin Zi." Zhang Yuntao shook his arms, exhausted, "Why didn’t you call before passing through the provincial city?"

Zhang Guoqing nodded towards Zhao Yuanyuan, who was whispering with Zhou Jiao, "Didn’t you see? With a wife like yours, would I dare?"

Zhang Yuntao turned his head, laughing heartily, "You’re something else, getting jealous even when a woman hugs your wife. Did you see Lin Zi before you came back; when is he coming back?"

"Called his workplace, they said he’s on a business trip."

"Jiao Jiao, where’s Ping’an and the others? You two are really heartless, leaving the kids like that. Have you seen their little faces? If you don’t come back in a few days, I’ll drag them back myself."

After a brief chat about missing them, Zhao Yuanyuan began to rant, "Do you have too many sons and just like to trouble the kids? I need to write Aunt Shan about this; kids shouldn’t be left with Xiao Wu. I knew this guy had bad intentions, always trying to monopolize you all to himself..."

Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes. He knew this troublesome girl loved tossing all the blame on him.

Zhang Yuntao laughed and patted his shoulder, "How many days are you staying? Some of our old high school friends want to catch up. Interested?"

It’s been years since they’ve kept in touch; it’s worth meeting and chatting. Relationships, after all, are built this way, and who can have too many friends?

Zhang Guoqing pinched the little guy’s cheek, thinking for a moment, "Leaving next week. If you can arrange something in these days, let me know."

"Everyone’s working, so it’ll have to be this weekend. I’ll notify them. Once they know you’re back, no one will skip."

Zhang Guoqing glanced at him, smiling, "Brother, after not seeing you for a while, you’ve really grown up."

"Been working at the unit for several years now. Compared to those colleagues, these old classmates, no matter the intentions, are more reliable."

"Times change, and meeting more people can’t be wrong. By the sound of it, you’re not happy at your job?"

Zhang Yuntao took his son, who was reaching for him, "It’s the same everywhere now. Heard from Lin Zi you’re doing well, when’s your next promotion?"

"Just biding my time in the military service," Zhang Guoqing wasn’t interested in work talk, "Ping’an says you come by every few days to check on them, thank you."

"He’s my nephew, what’s there to be tired about? When my son goes to Beijing, won’t you have to look after him? My father-in-law made me come immediately when I came here, haha^"
