Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134: Chapter 106: Returning Home at Night

The car returned to Zhang Family Village from the provincial city as night fell, with only a few scattered lights in the village.

Zhang Guoqing and his mother got off the car. Zhang Guoqing carried the things inside with his mother. His father, who was already anxiously pacing around, very unusually ran out to meet them. Apart from books and tapes, he let them move everything into the East Wing of the main house, where they could organize themselves.

Zhang Guoqing didn’t have time to say much to his parents. He carried a few stacks of old books and tapes into the small living room, then quickly ran back to bring the rest of the things down, parked the car properly, and finally waited for his father. After helping with the last bag, he swiftly brought in the last of the books, jogging back to the room.

Without minding organizing the books, he piled them up in the small living room and entered the room with the bag of tapes. As he entered, he saw Jiao Jiao leaning there waiting for him, and he was immediately greeted with a bright smile on her face.

"Jiao Jiao, what did you eat for dinner? Were you waiting impatiently?"

"Brother, did you eat? Did my mom get a sleeper ticket? Is she in Beijing now?"

The two of them said in unison and then burst into laughter.

Zhang Guoqing looked at his son, who was still awake and hadn’t slept, "Ping’an, why aren’t you asleep yet? Baby, your daddy is back. Honey, I bought a lot of tapes, you won’t be bored in the future. There are songs, storytelling, opera; they’re all in the bag. I’ll put them aside for now, you can look at them later. Son, daddy will play some music for you."

Zhang Guoqing arranged the tapes, turned down the volume a bit, kissed Zhou Jiao on the cheek while holding her in his arms, "What did you have for dinner? Were they impatient with you? Did anyone make snide remarks? You weren’t wronged, were you?"

Zhou Jiao wriggled comfortably against him, "No, sister-in-law brought it over. At noon, it was noodles with chicken soup and drumsticks on the stove. In the evening, she also brought rice with drumsticks and chicken soup from the stove. Can you smell it? The room is full of chicken soup and a stinky smell."

Zhang Guoqing pressed his chin against her head and took a deep breath, "No stinky smell on your body, it smells quite nice. The whole room smells like chicken soup but it’s a meaty aroma. Jiao Jiao, I’m craving some meat." He finished with a double entendre, smacking his lips together.
