Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Chapter 121: Inside Story (Part 1)

Lin Xueling opened her mouth wide, unable to speak for a long time. After a while, she blinked and cautiously asked, "Grandma, if Uncle is so amazing, how did he marry Aunt? Not that I’m belittling my aunt. Really, I heard people say Uncle is very handsome, and many female soldiers secretly like him, which is why Aunt stopped looking for someone. Because she encountered someone too good, everything else afterward seemed too inadequate, hence she couldn’t settle for anyone else. Several grandmas in the big yard said it’s a blessing Aunt isn’t really insane. But in my opinion, Aunt isn’t very pretty, nothing extraordinary to see."

Mrs. Lin looked thoughtfully at her granddaughter. She truly couldn’t agree with her views. She judged people based on their temperament, yet she couldn’t see Shanshan’s grace, focusing only on the appearance, missing the essence. If Shanshan had no merits, why would Zhou Xiaozheng notice her? Thinking of the clothes in her wardrobe, Mrs. Lin sighed inwardly. This child’s cultural literacy is still too low.

Mrs. Lin pointed at Lin Liyin, "Ask your aunt; she used to follow your aunt around all the time. She knows."

"Hmph, what’s so strange? Your aunt is silly; she secretly went to find Zhou Xiaozheng every time. Over time, they got familiar with each other. She couldn’t read people’s faces, and no matter how unpleasant Zhou Xiaozheng looked, she’d foolishly smile; I guess Zhou Xiaozheng liked fools. With his slyness, overthinking every day, having a silly wife would be great, she wouldn’t need to use her brain."

Everyone burst into laughter just as Lin Liyin finished her words.

Chen Jingru laughed and said, "Well, there’s a chance. Back then, when the marriage report was made, many people couldn’t believe that silly girl snagged the Northeast Tiger. According to your brother, folks said it was a surprise move, taking the prize in one go.

Qu family’s little girl Qu Xiaoyue is beautiful, right? Now nearly forty and still like a big girl. Pretty, smart, and cultured; back then, she was obsessed with Zhou Xiaozheng. Everyone thought it would be a hero paired with a beauty, guessing it was them. Mr. Qu in the military district is quite authoritative, his power surpasses our father. But in the end, elder sister snagged him, leaving Qu Xiaoyue heartbroken, fleeing to the South. She’s only returned these past few years. Mr. Qu’s always been dissatisfied with Dad, claiming his son-in-law got snatched."

Mrs. Lin sighed, lamenting, "Qu family girl is pitiful too; she found a partner who looks good but is a philanderer. Both husband and wife have no kids, heard they’ve divorced.

Aunt Jiang said never to mention Zhou Xiaozheng in front of the Qu family, to avoid the girl being entangled. I’m not worried; with Zhou Xiaozheng’s character, he wouldn’t. It’s unfortunate for this kid; people say beauty brings misfortune, those who are too pretty have no good ending.
