Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1096

Chapter 1096: Chapter 969: Gong Xiaoya

Outside the steel factory on the outskirts of the provincial city, not far from the family building, a tall man in his fifties was watching the road with a smile.

A passing colleague joked, "Old Gong, waiting for your wife?"

"Go, go, it’s you who’s waiting for your own wife." Gong Chunsheng knew his old colleague was from the South, where they also call their daughters-in-law ’wife’, this old rascal.

"Haha... angry out of shame?"

Those passing by heard and chuckled, exchanging greetings and heading home. It wasn’t anyone else Old Gong was waiting for, other than his little daughter, who else?

"You know, Old Gong is really fortunate."

"Fewer people, that’s why. If he had more, he’d be like us, unable to support them, let alone send two kids to college."

"Alright, let’s not say too much." A middle-aged woman saw Old Gong’s gentle wife coming out in front and quickly waved to greet her.

Liu Shuhua stepped forward a few steps, exchanged a few pleasantries with them, and quickly walked to her husband’s side, "Why don’t you wait at home?"

"Why did you come down too?"

"I saw you hadn’t come up for a while." Liu Shuhua, eight years younger than her husband, looked much younger and of course had better eyesight, "They’re here."

"Ming Yuan and our Xiao Ya?"

Liu Shuhua gently nodded, "Remember what I said, definitely don’t mention the betrothal gift in front of Ming Yuan."

"Am I just giving away our good daughter for free?"

"Your bad temper! Do you really want to profit from the bride price? Either way, it’ll all go back to her husband’s family, no need to make things unpleasant with the in-laws."

Old Gong saw the future son-in-law approaching and muttered quietly, "I’m just worried he has too many brothers."

Liu Shuhua turned her head to give him a warning glare. Seeing that he kept quiet, she was satisfied and pulled him forward to welcome them, waving with a smile, "Ming Yuan, why didn’t you take the bus? Must be exhausting."

"Mom, didn’t you see me?"

"I just knew Ming Yuan would ride with you on the back, what a hassle."

Xi Zi saw her fiancé sweet-talking her mom and amusingly turned to greet Old Gong, "Father, off work?"

"Yes, yes, hurry home, Xiao Ya’s mom has already cooked dinner, must be starving?"

"Then I have a treat, thank you, Auntie."

"No need to be polite, we’re all family." Liu Shuhua pulled her daughter over, "Did you leave your bike at work?"

Gong Xiaoya nodded, "Ming Yuan said it was too far, let me ride with him."

Liu Shuhua looked at her son-in-law’s back even more approvingly. He knew how to take care of people. Good family background, good looks, easy-going elders, nothing to pick on.

"Mom, tomorrow’s the weekend, I want to go back with Ming Yuan."

Liu Shuhua sighed an eye-roll at her daughter. She wasn’t even married yet and was already following her fiancé back to his family often; didn’t she know girls should be reserved?

"Hehe..." Gong Xiaoya blushed and lowered her head.

Seeing her daughter this way, Liu Shuhua didn’t say more, not the place with people passing by. Of course, she didn’t know they hadn’t even gotten engaged, and her little girl had already gone to the county several times.
