Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198: Chapter 1071: A Thousand Miles Away

Northeast XL County, as soon as the New Year’s Eve dinner was over, the firecrackers burst into a roar.

Mr. Zhang couldn’t take his hands off the new woolen clothes and leather shoes on the kang.

Should he wear them? After all, it’s the thought of his dear Jiao Jiao!

Wear? Or not?

Oh dear, this is quite a dilemma!

Mai Sui forcibly dressed Mother Zhang in a dark red Tang-style cotton coat, black cotton pants, and put on a pair of black boots before pushing her out of the room.

"Better not, I’m already old, wearing this would make a fool of myself."

Mai Sui smiled, "Who says so, Grandma is still young. Don’t you trust my aunt? Would she let you embarrass yourself? Right!"

"Oh dear, your aunt is spending recklessly again! How much would such good material cost, and why buy boots again when I already have three pairs..."

Zhang Meili, after having the New Year’s Eve dinner and rushing over past one o’clock, exclaimed as soon as she walked in, "Oh my, mother!"

Lin Juhua quickly made an excuse, "Mother looks so grand in this outfit!"

"She should have dressed like this a long time ago, looks much younger. My aunt has good taste."

"The key is our grandma carries herself well."

Listening to the chatter from the female relatives, Mother Zhang felt comforted, even though she didn’t quite understand what elegance meant, she felt she could indeed wear this out!

"Where’s grandpa? I brought the kids to kowtow to you."

As soon as Xi Zi saw Zhang Ziwen speak, he pointed inside with a grin, and stood up to go in. He guessed he was too embarrassed to come out.

Inside, Zhang the Second smacked his lips, "Dad, stop dawdling. I’m not lying, this is how they dress in big cities. I went to the provincial city for a meeting a few days ago, and there was an old man even older than you dressed just like this."

"Really?"

"Would your son lead you to embarrass yourself? If you don’t wear it, I’ll take it." Zhang the Second said while pretending to reach for it.

Mr. Zhang hurriedly slapped away his hand, "Go away, who said I wouldn’t wear it? Jiao Jiao made it for me, how could it not fit me? I just can’t bear to waste such good fabric."

Zhang the Second glanced at his father speechlessly, sure, sure, it’s all your reasoning, you’re the boss. But, this fabric? They really spent a lot!

"Grandpa, how is it a waste? It’s all a gesture of respect from my aunt." Zhang Ziwen, following Xi Zi in, immediately picked up the clothes to help him change.

"Grandma has already changed, Grandpa, let’s hurry, the kids are waiting to kowtow."

Mr. Zhang quickly waved away his grandson and grandchild’s hands, "I can do it myself, I know how to wear it."

Zhang the Second gave an approving look at his nephew and grandson, it’s fortunate these kids came in, getting his father to wear this wasn’t easy!

With their new clothes on, Mr. Zhang and Mother Zhang indeed looked younger and grander. They had been living a good life for the past decade, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to pull it off.

After the kids paid their respects and received their lucky money, all the little ones didn’t leave, they stuck around, cunningly eyeing Mr. Zhang, waiting for their uncle/granduncle’s fireworks to be lit.
