Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 463

Chapter 463: Chapter 351: Activating the Secret Chamber_2

Faced with all this, Zhou Jiao covered her forehead in distress, looking at her dad.

Zhou Xiaozheng saw this and couldn’t suppress his amusement any longer, patting her on the head, "Quickly put it away. A family with hundreds of years of history, this is already little. Abroad, I’ve seen the biggest secret rooms that are truly scary. If you can’t fit it all, just leave some out."

"Dad, don’t scare me. You wouldn’t be a thief, would you? That’s too dangerous."

Zhou Xiaozheng laughed heartily—his daughter Jiao Jiao was indeed imaginative.

Zhou Jiao shook her head at him helplessly, such a low threshold for humor! She took out pen and paper, then said, "I can fit it all, it just feels too overwhelming. Dad, you open the boxes, I need to take notes to have a count in my mind."

"What’s there to note, it’s all yours anyway. When you have time in the future, you can go through it again." Zhou Xiaozheng stopped laughing, shaking his head as he spoke. He only had Jiao Jiao as a child, so whatever is left is hers.

"Dad, that won’t do, I’ll have brothers and sisters in the future. Don’t ever think like that. You’ve given me enough for ten lifetimes, I won’t need all of these."

Seeing her shake her head vigorously, Zhou Xiaozheng was truly worried that her little head might fall off, "Alright, keep it for now. We’ll talk about the future when it comes."

Upon saying that, he saw her happily directing him to open the boxes, and he went along with her—if his daughter was happy, that was enough. Brothers and sisters? Haha, this kid really does think a lot.

He had never planned to have another child. Besides Jiao Jiao, who qualifies to inherit the wealth of the Zhou and Gu families? Who could inherit the strengths of his parents like Jiao Jiao? Who can guarantee the next child won’t turn out like the Lin Family? He already owed his daughter so much, yet would have children in old age, making her bear the responsibilities of the eldest? Impossible!

As for the family bloodline, Zhang Guoqing wasn’t the eldest son, and he had already privately agreed with his in-laws that Jiao Jiao’s children, whether male or female, should have two under his name. The in-laws agreed even if Xiao Wu only had one Ping’an, he would shoulder both Zhang and Zhou families. That was what he appreciated about the Zhang Family—so generous!

Zhou Jiao had no idea what her father thought. At the moment, she worried, "Dad, do you think Uncle just now walked away on purpose? Grandma is so straightforward. If that letter fell into someone else’s hands, wouldn’t our family’s things be moved away by them? With all this stuff in our house, might Uncle’s family have even more?"

"Don’t criticize your grandma! So what if Uncle did it on purpose? We can walk out empty-handed, and they follow us all the way. Even if they suspect us, they won’t find anything.

The Cheng Family has a foundation, but it’s surely limited. The Zhou, Gu, and Cheng families, their Cheng Family mainly started an academy, while our Zhou Family served as officials with clear sleeves for generations, not to mention their Cheng Family previously donated a lot. If we’re talking about wealthiest, it’s definitely your grandma’s Gu Family. Back in the Qing Dynasty, they owned two ocean vessels."

After finishing, Zhou Xiaozheng consecutively opened several boxes filled with faded pearls. He defiantly moved to the corner, opened it, and saw silver dollars and gold, truly living up to—pearls like earth, gold like iron.
