Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 351

Chapter 351: Chapter 268: The Eve of Separation

Outside the west wing in the living room, Mother Zhang and her three daughters-in-law were chatting away while busy with their needlework. At this moment, she tilted her head and heard a rumbling sound, "Who could be visiting? Could someone be looking for Xiao Wu?"

Zhou Jiao and the others were surprised to find that the sound was getting closer to them shortly after Mother Zhang spoke.

The four of them looked at each other in confusion. Mother Zhang immediately stood up, lifted the curtain, and peeked outside, "Oh my, it’s Xiao Wu coming back. Come out and take a look, why is there a little devils’ tricycle?"

Zhou Jiao and the rest heard this and ran towards the yard. All they could do was laugh. How could it be a little devils’ tricycle? The whole vehicle was oddly modified despite resembling that shape.

"Well, to be honest, the more you look at it, the nicer it appears. Xiao Wu, where did you get it?" Lin Juhua curiously walked over to take a closer look.

Zhang Guoqing waved his hand, stretching a bit, "It’s a long story. Let me catch my breath first." Having said that, after a while, Zhang Guoqing felt a bit warmer and began to carry the stuff from the tricycle into the living room.

Zhou Jiao handed him a cup of hot water, full of confusion, and asked, "You didn’t drive this thing all the way from the provincial city, did you? Where did all these things come from?"

Zhang Guoqing glanced at the living room filled with curious sisters-in-law, helplessly saying, "I really did drive it back from the provincial city. All these things were loaded onto my vehicle by my godfather. Do you know what it means to make a mess while having good intentions? This is it."

Zhou Jiao looked at him curiously, "Then why didn’t you ask the driver to tow it behind a car and ride the car yourself? It would just cost a bit more, no need to ride it all the way back."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guoqing stared blankly at Zhou Jiao. After a moment, he covered his face with both hands, "No wonder something felt off! I was led astray by my godfather. He kept urging me to ride back quickly, and I actually rode all the way back. On the road, I even encountered a car heading to the county town and didn’t think of asking them to tow it. How embarrassing!"

His words made Mother Zhang and the others burst into laughter, as it was rare to see Xiao Wu so muddled.

Zhou Jiao, afraid he’d feel awkward, changed the topic, "Did you send a telegram back after my mom and the others got on the bus?"
