Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1195

Chapter 1195: Chapter 1068: Before the New Year

When Zhang Guoqing went upstairs at night, as soon as he entered, he saw his wife sitting on the bed, holding a pen, lowering her head writing and doodling in her notebook. "What are you writing?"

When Zhou Jiao saw Zhang Guoqing return, she put down her pen and said, "Brother, I have something to tell you. Promise you won’t get mad, okay?"

Zhang Guoqing sat next to her and hugged her, saying, "Tell me, as long as it doesn’t hurt you, it’s fine."

Hearing his words, Zhou Jiao felt a bit guilty, "I have a holiday at the end of the year, but I don’t want to go back home."

For Huaxia people, New Year’s Eve is extremely important.

On this day, people prepare to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, and have a reunion dinner. In ancient Huaxia, some prison officials would even allow prisoners to go home to reunite with their families for the New Year, showing how important the reunion dinner was to the ancient Huaxia people.

Although on this day, parents and lovers might make a round trip on duty, for Zhou Jiao, a true reunion dinner meant having her closest ones with her.

And besides her parents-in-law, there wasn’t anyone back home worth her traveling a thousand miles for a so-called reunion. Especially with never-ending social obligations, it’ annoying...

Zhang Guoqing looked at his little wife, who was looking up at him timidly with apologetic, watery big eyes, and suddenly he felt a warmth in his heart, his breath quickening.

——His wife’s current adorable look was truly irresistible; without much thought, he pressed Zhou Jiao down on the bed, eagerly kissing her alluring red lips.

...

Afterward, Zhang Guoqing warmly patted the wife in his arms, "It’s so cold; I can’t bear to have you go back. Next year the kids will be starting school, so spend more time with them. As for my parents, if we go back now, it must be a mess. I’ll call them in a few days to see if they’re coming over..."

Zhou Jiao sleepily uttered a response.

Zhang Guoqing couldn’t help but chuckle. Shouldn’t pillow talk be most effective now with a beauty scheme? It looks like his wife has more spirit than she can manage.

Parents?

In the end, I still owe them a lot.

Giving them more money, giving them more things, is not as good as seeing them with my own eyes. Unfortunately, they still can’t let go of the other children.

This year, on the twenty-second of the twelfth lunar month.

Lei Tianming took his mother’s ashes and Zhou Jiao’s planning book, and under the farewell of Zhou Jiao and others, boarded the plane to reunite with his family abroad.

A few days later, according to Heizi, on this day, right after sending Lei Tianming off, a group of indignant friends visited the Lei Family.

Although he didn’t explain in detail how it went, Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao could more or less guess what kind of scene unfolded.

——But it’s too late, once some people turn away for their interests, they become unreachable. You can only say fate held no bond; in the end, we remain strangers.

Apart from the sadness of parting, this year turned out to be different.

It wasn’t just a harvest year for the Zhou Family; visibly, the market conditions were becoming more relaxed, and people on the streets looked vigorous rather than shrunken.

The most obvious thing: Doctor Hu never mentioned going far away after the Spring Festival.

And this was the thing that made Zhou Jiao the happiest.

Describing her master as an old child was not at all inappropriate—stubborn and fun.

Although today the old man seemed robust due to his healthy lifestyle, he was still old after all.

An elderly person over eighty is already regarded as a rare venerable age, only he wasn’t particular, always happily saying that the Book of Life and Death held by King Yan surely didn’t have his name.
