Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Chapter 208: Rushing to the Northeast

When he returned home and saw his wife looking at him expectantly, he chuckled softly, "It’s our sister and brother-in-law’s son, absolutely, undoubtedly. We have all the evidence and witnesses. Zhou Xiaozheng is the son of Zhou Jinyu and Gu Mingzhu. My dear, we found the child. I finally don’t have to be embarrassed to face Brother Jinyu like you." After saying this, Mr. Cheng wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Watching his wife tearfully smiling foolishly with excitement, he quickly said, "Don’t rush, don’t get excited, we’ll go to the Northeast right away to settle accounts with that bastard from the Old Zhou Family. Bring all the things belonging to your sister and brother-in-law, don’t forget anything. We’ll take the military plane tonight to the Northeast, make good use of the time, and we can see the child tonight. Dress warmly, once the doctor comes, we will leave at once."

"Haha, this is really great, I knew Zhou Xiaozheng would be that child, our nephew. I’ve packed everything long ago, just waiting for you to take me to find the child. Child’s father, once you’ve arranged everything, we will leave," said Old Mrs. Cheng, her face flushed with excitement. She cheerfully wiped her tears and dashed toward the bedroom.

Seeing his wife busy with excitement, Mr. Cheng quickly found the maid, "Don’t prepare meals for the two of us tonight. When the children come back, just tell them we have found Zhou Xiaozheng, their cousin, and we are catching a military flight tonight. We will talk about everything once we are back." After saying this, he thought for a moment and decided he had to tell Old Lin, otherwise, he would surely get angry.

Mr. Cheng turned and left the kitchen, finding Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen, go over to the Lin Family and check if Old Lin is back. If he is, ask him to come over, it’s urgent."

In a short while, Old Mrs. Cheng came out with two suitcases, "Let’s go. Everything’s packed in here." With that, she strode energetically out the door, showing no signs of the illness that had kept her bedridden just days before.

Following his wife out, Mr. Cheng had barely left the yard when he saw Mr. Lin approaching, "No need to come in, we are heading to the Northeast. To catch the military flight, I’ll keep it brief: your son-in-law Zhou Xiaozheng is my wife’s nephew. We’ve been searching for over forty years, but now we’re heading over to settle scores with Old Man Zhou, and to find that child."

"Who? Who did you say? Zhou Xiaozheng is your nephew, you’ve got to be joking?" Mr. Lin looked at his old friend in disbelief. Seeing they were about to get in the car, he hurried to grab his friend.

Mr. Cheng looked at him, patiently saying, "Remember I mentioned the youngest son of the elder branch of the Zhou Family had a photographic memory and the matter with the Jiangnan Gu Family? The youngest son, Zhou Jinyu, and Gu Mingzhu didn’t actually die. My wife is Gu Mingzhu’s sister, adopted by the Gu Family as a foster daughter, and also Gu Mingzhu’s distant cousin. Zhou Jinyu and Gu Mingzhu left behind a son who we couldn’t find for years. You mentioned Zhou Xiaozheng is from the Beijing Zhou Family, and Jiao Jiao also has a photographic memory. I found it odd, so I investigated over the past few days, and with evidence and witnesses, it’s confirmed that Zhou Xiaozheng is that child. Zhou Jiao inherited her grandfather’s photographic memory. We’ll discuss the details when we return, don’t stop me, time is of the essence." With that, he squeezed into the car.

Mr. Lin was stunned, and by the time he came to his senses, the car had already driven off. He stomped his foot and shouted for Xiao Zhou to bring the car around. When Xiao Zhou drove up, he realized he hadn’t told his wife yet, so he called the maid at the door, "When my wife comes back, tell her I went with the Cheng couple on a military flight to the Northeast to find his nephew Zhou Xiaozheng. For details, let her ask the Cheng Family."

The maid was still processing as the car drove off, worried she might relay it wrong, she kept repeating the message to herself, but the more she repeated, the more it seemed off.

Mrs. Lin, returning from the service center with her hair freshly done and carrying fish, slowly strolled into the yard. Seeing the maid pacing around, she curiously approached to see what was happening.

Upon seeing her, the maid said excitedly, "Good thing you’re back, or I would’ve forgotten. The master said he’s gone with the Cheng couple by military flight to the Northeast to find his nephew Zhou Xiaozheng. He told you to ask the Cheng Family if you’re unclear about anything."

Mrs. Lin frowned, "Did you say nephew Zhou Xiaozheng?"
