Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Chapter 47: Visitors from the Lin Family (3)_2

Later, have Xiao Fei write down what she said today and send it to your brother and them. Let the kids take a look too. She’s only 17 years old, grew up in the countryside, graduated from junior high school, and yet her vision and strategy are not lacking. The family also needs to tighten up a bit.

You need to think carefully about this child and not let her do whatever she wants. You and your wife have only this one child; if she’s mediocre, that would be it. What Old Man Zhou said is that your daughter, when you look at her, you can’t believe it. She even made a lifelong decision without consulting anyone, timid and lacking in independence, making her suitable for living a quiet life in the countryside and marrying a simple, honest family. If it weren’t for Jiao Jiao being pushed to the brink, she wouldn’t have thought of ways to deal with it.

I’ve investigated, Jiao Jiao under Zhang Guoqing’s protection lives in her own world. Besides her in-laws in the Zhang family and her grandmother, she treats everyone else indifferently, maintaining a certain distance from people and things around her. She doesn’t have best friends, nor topics to chat about with her peers. She just likes reading, and the impression she gives is calm and composed.

During school, both of them had excellent grades and could directly go to high school. Zhang Guoqing didn’t even serve in the military but rushed to marry. Something must have happened that made her eager to leave the Old Zhou Family, probably her growing up, with your sister-in-law scheming against her.

Zhang Guoqing is quite famous in this area, born with divine power, straightforward, and admired by everyone from old to young. The family is sincere, and the two have a childhood sweetheart relationship, so I agreed to this marriage; otherwise, who would believe Old Man Zhou? He’s just a senile fool. Jiao Jiao is stuck because of her grandmother and father; otherwise, even ten Old Man Zhous couldn’t handle the two of them causing a fuss.

It’s said that children from poor families learn to be responsible early. She grew up without us by her side, accompanied only by her grandmother and Zhang Guoqing. Her grandmother couldn’t protect her due to her soft nature, and Zhang Guoqing couldn’t always be there for her because of his ties with the Zhou family. In such an environment, she naturally became cautious about others and developed a strong sense of vigilance, dealing with things carefully and being pragmatic. You can see the difference between Xuezhen and her, this is the difference of having a mother or not. You should treat her well in the future; it’s not just about sending said love and child support, that’s not genuinely loving her. We didn’t have a choice then, the army was unpredictable, so we entrusted you to others, and you had siblings to rely on. But she really had no one to lean on here.

You’re clever, yet have no cunning. When it was time to step up, you thought of the mother and daughter having a tearful reunion. Do you think Jiao Jiao would do that? She would certainly coldly ask you to wait, and even be angry at your foolishness for creating chaos. If something happened among those 500 people, it’d be a huge deal. She had to keep control, earn public sympathy. Why would you step in? To make it worse.

Do you know why your son-in-law was silent upon seeing us and didn’t greet us? Because we couldn’t appear, if we did, it would be seen as elders bullying the young, and Old Lin’s family would seem unkind and dismissive of the Zhou Family. Did you notice that the Zhang Family had nothing to say today? And did you see how your son-in-law only said one line to Old Man Zhou at the end? Do you know what that means?

It means Zhou Xue came to Jiao Jiao, and that quarrel was among their peers. Their family is reasonable; you can come to argue, but you can’t hit Jiao Jiao. The crowd of Zhang Family surrounding them was just for the Zhou Family to see, if a fight broke out, the Old Zhang Family wouldn’t be afraid.
