Delicate snowflakes gently sprinkled the courtyard, with soft lighting falling on a beautiful silhouette under the eaves. Who is this person with a flower-like smile?
Zhang Guoqing, who had just returned home after an evening of socializing, couldn’t help but smile at the sight and quickly stepped onto the thin layer of snow carpet in the yard to come forward.
"Wife."
"Yes."
"Hahaha..." Zhang Guoqing took off his gloves, squeezed her hand, and embraced her, saying, "Really a silly wife, if I come back late in the future, just rest first."
"I can’t relax until I see you."
Zhang Guoqing leaned close to her ear, "Me too; tonight will be an unforgettable night."
Zhou Jiao glanced at him playfully and then smiled softly, "Hmm, there will be a surprise."
Just as Zhang Guoqing was about to start teasing, he stepped into the living room and saw his smiling sons, realizing he missed the chance to make his little wife blush.
So this two-story small building is still too small!
"Why aren’t you resting yet?"
"My grandpa and grandma are not at home; we weren’t at ease leaving mom alone downstairs."
Zhang Guoqing looked approvingly at his three sons, "Very good!"
May 1st cast a speechless glance at his brothers, thinking, we’re still the little babies here.
Ping’an smiled, "Dad, a telegram came from home."
Zhang Guoqing followed his son’s gaze to the coffee table, and sure enough, it was a telegram.
"You read it first, I’ll go make some noodles."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Guoqing immediately held her back, "No need, I didn’t drink much, just ate some dishes, so I’m not hungry now."
"Dad, who were all there tonight?"
Zhang Guoqing raised his eyebrows, "Don’t worry, I kept three steps away from all females tonight. It was just a group of old men; I couldn’t bear to take my wife out."
May, hearing this, looked surprised, "Did you get it wrong? Doesn’t everyone say mom is dad’s life, and we brothers come after?"
Zhang Guoqing glared at him with feigned annoyance, "Enough, don’t play tricks in front of your dad. Your little tricks are nothing; you’re playing what’s left from my old games."
Zhou Jiao glanced at him with amusement, "No blame on him for worrying. Aunt Yi just left not long ago, and I heard one of your friends’ sisters would be joining them."
Zhang Guoqing frowned slightly, "Who said these things to her? It was just Square, Sha Gen, and Da Pao talking about guns and comrades, and Young Master Li and others who may be love talkers, but they came for meetings this time. Even if there were women, they wouldn’t dare bring them in front of me."
"It’s supposed to be some of her good sister; she didn’t mention a name, and I didn’t ask. It’s just those little secrets between women that aren’t worth much, given her intelligence."
Hearing this, Zhang Guoqing laughed out loud, "This Da Yi guy nearly brought down the grape trellis in the backyard. He must give you a big gift for this."
May curiously sidled up to him, "Dad, have you heard Uncle Da Yi mention who is so bold to try something on him?"
Zhang Guoqing glared at him, "Kids, how do you understand everything?"
"Dad, I’m about to be a college student."
"Haha, did you go to that small ballroom in the northern city?"
May stared wide-eyed in surprise, his finger trembling as he pointed, "Dad, you know that place? Did you go there? How do you know so clearly? Are you being fair to mom?"
Zhang Guoqing promptly looked at Zhou Jiao, "Wife, don’t listen to this mischievous kid’s provocations; my feelings for you are as clear as day..."
