Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1151

Chapter 1151: Chapter 1024: Mother and Son Return to Beijing

A week had passed since returning to Beijing; the same time, the same familiar platform, and of course, the same familiar scene.

But there was one less familiar person.

Zhou Jiao, watching Zhang Guoqing waving his hand in greeting, suddenly thought her dad would never be able to stand there waiting for her as he used to.

With loss comes gain, as one’s position rises, what is lost isn’t often freedom?

However, perhaps in ten years, maybe twenty, in the blink of an eye, the familiar platform would appear again, with different faces.

As Zhang Guoqing stepped into the carriage, he carefully assessed his wife’s expression—not bad. Then he glanced to the side at Ping’an, who was planning to carry the baggage, and appreciatively patted his shoulder, "Son, you’ve worked hard all along the way."

Ping’an’s lips curved into a beautiful arc, "Not hard at all, just revisiting memories." He spoke while not missing a beat in his actions.

"Oh? Seems like you had a good time. Got a gift for your brother?"

"I do. Dad, how come the brothers are here? Would they agree?"

Zhang Guoqing gave a knowing wink, casually grabbing the other two burlap sacks, "I told them one car couldn’t fit everyone; they are currently at home eagerly awaiting your return."

"Wife, did you also bring medicinal herbs?"

Zhou Jiao followed behind the father and son duo, watching them easily carrying the luggage, smiled with pursed lips, "Yes, first I’ll visit Master."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guoqing immediately understood, nodding his head. The station’s a busy place, not suitable for discussing matters, so he avoided the topic.

Once the family of three boarded the military vehicle waiting at the station, Zhang Guoqing revisited an old topic, "While you were away from home, I also had someone collect some herbs."

"Is there enough money?"

"Doesn’t cost much. The old man isn’t in Beijing, but you will have your hands full soon."

Zhou Jiao had already planned, smiled and said, "I have three good helpers. Ping’an won’t go to the barracks this summer, he and Liu Yiwu can help."

"Son, how about it? Can you help your mom?"

Ping’an held the steering wheel and listened quietly, upon being directly addressed, he smiled and nodded, "No problem, the three of us brothers have learned quite a bit over the years."

"Jiao Jiao, I should’ve brought along the three brothers earlier, so you wouldn’t have to squeeze out time every weekend and work so hard."

Hearing this, Ping’an looked slightly thoughtful, it seemed some doubts he had recently might be answered, his parents weren’t just nearby every weekend.

His right hand instinctively tapped the steering wheel, as he slowly revealed a smile, just curious why his parents recently produced so much medicine?

This time, his mom didn’t keep it from him; it seemed a lot was preparation for hemostatic medicine and healing herbs. Interesting, really interesting. He hoped it wasn’t just for making money.
