Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 403

Chapter 403: Chapter 306: Lin Family and Jiang Jiangyu

After liberation, she followed her husband back to the Big Courtyard. She was a restless and diligent person. Each season, the corners of the yard were planted full of fruits and vegetables.

Jiang Jiangyu entered the house and immediately saw her mother with a head full of white hair, bending over, kneading dough. Last night, she hurried back to see her parents briefly. At the time, she didn’t notice it, but now, upon taking a closer look, she realized her mother had aged significantly. Looking around the house, aside from the military-provided furniture and supplies, there wasn’t anything decent.

She frowned tightly and complained to her mother, who greeted her with a look of delight, "Those people still won’t leave you and Dad alone? Are we even going to live like normal? All these years and every debt has been repaid. Look at your clothes; they’ve been patched up multiple times? This coat is from when I made it for you after having the second child."

Old Mrs. Jiang’s smile faded, and she glared at her, saying sternly, "Have you forgotten your oldest brother was nearly killed, and it was your uncles who saved him? Your second brother was constantly ill in the deep winter, and it was your aunts who pawned their dowry to save him. Have you forgotten you were raised at your maternal grandparents’, fed and nurtured by your aunts? Without these relatives and friends, how could I—a single woman—raise all of you? In life, you cannot forget your roots. Do people come to your door if they are not in need? Next time, don’t let me hear such words. If you can’t stand it, then don’t come back to your parents’ house."

Jiang Jiangyu was at a loss for words, sighed with a complicated feeling, and nodded her head.

In the kitchen, Jiang Jiangyu helped Old Mrs. Jiang with chores, while asking about everyone at home. Learning that aside from relatives occasionally visiting, everyone at the maternal home was doing well, she immediately smiled.

Then she thought of the reason she came. She paused, glanced at her mother, and spoke casually, "Mom, do you know the Lin Family’s eldest son-in-law? It’s Zhou Xiaozheng who just returned and is staying in the small courtyard at the back."

Old Mrs. Jiang nodded her head. How could she not know?

The small courtyard at the back housed only Zhou Xiaozheng and two other young chiefs; all others were older men. They attracted a lot of attention! Moreover, he was the in-laws’ eldest son-in-law.

"How could he not be known? The courtyard has many people, yet he is absolutely known to everyone. When he first returned, all the women, old and young, in the courtyard secretly ran over to see him. They all said they went to see the handsome man.
