Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 - 2: Parting in Displeasure

"National Day, why did you buy so much again? You're really something, didn't I say this before? When you come home, there's no need to buy things, you're about to have a child, so you should save money properly. Don't waste it. If you ask me, it's not good that you don't have parents around. Look at these yellow croakers, they're expensive."

Mrs. Zhou was a factory flower in her youth, famous for being articulate and skilled in dealing with people. Although she was saying such deferring words, she accepted things without hesitation at all. Initially, she married the promising factory accountant Mr. Zhou with her beauty and the identity of a poor rural girl. Her current mind is all about calculating how to scoop her daughter's money into her own family.

"Er Ya, why are you, you silly girl, not saying anything? How about letting Mom help you save aside from the living expenses each month. By the time the child grows up and you need to buy a house, I'm just worried for you young couple, not planning."

Mrs. Zhou held tightly in her hands, still muttering to herself: this silly girl, spending so much money on things, might as well give money directly.

"Haha, are you sure I still have money? I've been working for 2 years, half of my monthly salary is given to you, the betrothal gift money depleted our savings as a small couple, and the car we bought last year was using the down payment." Zhou Jiao said to Mrs. Zhou ambiguously.

"Alright, old woman. Why are you worrying about the child again? Didn't we agree not to interfere with the kids' things? Xiao Zhang, don't listen to your mom, come in quickly." Mr. Zhou, Zhou Dafu quickly interrupted.

He's smarter than his wife. The young son-in-law is filial to them for his daughter's sake, otherwise, who would care about the old woman? Besides, you can't let the daughter stand at the door with her big belly.

Not letting her in, still obsessing over money. Silly! Money issues can be dealt with slowly. Tomorrow, when everyone gathers together, think about it, under the public eye, the two son-in-laws can't refuse.

A peaceful night, Zhou Jiao saw that her sister-in-law returned to her mother's house and did not return last night, and her little brother was not seen at home either. It seems that if this couple will not lack money to spend, not even an inkling of them will be seen. But these have nothing to do with her, she's too lazy to speak up.

Maybe it's because of pregnancy, Zhou Jiao woke up in the morning at 9 o'clock already. Her side was empty, Zhang Guoqing presumably went downstairs to help early.

She opened the door and slowly went downstairs.
