Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 434

Chapter 434: Chapter 329: Two Days in the Provincial City

Before leaving the house, Jiao Jiao quickly got up and asked her godmother to help take care of the child. She grabbed her things and caught up with them. She didn’t say where she was going, only after getting in the car did she ask Zhao Chuan Guang to first take her to visit Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao.

"If Jiao Jiao hadn’t mentioned it, I would have completely forgotten. We should see the old man first. Godfather, you take us over to say hello, then I’ll follow you to see others." Zhang Guoqing said regretfully, patting his own forehead.

Zhao Chuan Guang laughed heartily when he heard this. Even he had overlooked it, forgetting that the old man had invited them over for dinner last night, which he had declined.

"It doesn’t matter, there’s no need for so many formalities. Besides, my daughter is meticulous. Your grandparents will surely be overjoyed when they know."

Indeed, Mr. Zhao and his wife were very happy, they held Zhou Jiao’s hand excitedly and wouldn’t let go. Especially the old man, who was upset they didn’t bring the child along.

Before returning to Beijing, Jiao Jiao had already witnessed the old man’s enthusiasm. During their first meeting, Mr. Zhao held her hand and cried about her grandmother. She was used to it now, sitting obediently beside the two elders and answering their questions.

After sitting for more than half an hour, Zhao Chuan Guang stood up and mentioned that the child was still at home, letting Zhou Jiao go back first, and suggested his parents visit the child at the Big Courtyard.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were very tempted, but considering they still needed to visit others, they politely declined, promising to visit the child tomorrow night when there was no one else.

Out of Zhao Family’s courtyard, Jiao Jiao let them go first, using the excuse of needing to buy some things before returning to the Big Courtyard. Seeing their hesitant faces, she pointed to a carriage by the roadside. Finally, Zhao Chuan Guang was at ease when he sent her to the supply and marketing cooperative before leaving.

Standing at the door, watching the car drive away, Jiao Jiao shook her head with a bitter smile. After contemplating for a while, she decided not to go inside and directly called a carriage to go back.

As expected, after lunch, once Ping’an fell asleep, Huang Hui Min quickly dragged her out to the street. Letting the two sons look after the child, she informed a few aunts to wait until they returned.

Meanwhile, Zhang Guoqing followed Zhao Chuan Guang to see several elders, and at the noon banquet, he witnessed various social skills.

Compared to Zhou Xiao Zheng’s reluctance to interact with others, Zhao Chuan Guang could be described as articulate and resourceful. Each time making Zhang Guoqing secretly marvel at how two people with distinctly different personalities could be close friends.

After dining with a few uncle’s families, the next day they followed Huang Hui Min to her parents’ home to pay New Year’s respect to Mr. Huang. This time, the whole family set out, even Ping’an accompanied them.

This day seemed to be well-arranged. It happened to be a resting day, and the Huang Family had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Zhang Guoqing and his wife, they all clamored for the couple to start greeting everyone.

Before arriving, Zhao Chuan Guang had said that the Huang Family loved to play, instructed them not to be scared. Sure enough, Huang Hui Min’s sisters-in-law loved to joke around, teasing Jiao Jiao so much that her face turned red.

As soon as Zhang Guoqing entered, Mr. Huang pulled him to the front to sit down, and the baby was long since snatched away by Mrs. Huang. The bustling scene made him suddenly want to laugh.

No matter the Huang Family’s intentions in being so enthusiastic, this family really knew how to create a lively atmosphere. The two sons of the Huang Family and their sister-in-law got along well, the children were affectionate, and the ambiance was especially good. Especially their humorous remarks often caused belly laughs.

It was hard to imagine this was the atmosphere of the family led by the head.

Soon the drinks and food were arranged on the table by the maid aunt. Men and women sat separately crowded in the living room, everyone chatted about topics, even children joined in, their childish words were particularly amusing.

The various ways of persuading to drink at the table made Zhang Guoqing, who was usually never easily drunk, feel somewhat tipsy. Besides Zhang Guoqing and his wife today, Huang Family’s eldest son-in-law also visited. At this moment, he was already drunk, persistently shouting at Mr. Huang, "Buddy, let’s drink this bowl."
