Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 604

Chapter 604: Chapter 483: Parents-in-Law Depart

Before leaving, Mr. Zhang privately pulled aside Zhang Guoqing and advised him not to compromise himself for any potential future. The success of Old Zhang’s family today was already sufficient.

He used a lifetime of experience and wisdom to urge his eldest son—not to lose his true self for any nonexistent things, and even more not to betray his conscience for future prospects.

Zhang Guoqing solemnly promised him that he would not be blinded by power.

This time, aside from the Cheng Family, Mr. Zhang instructed Zhou Xiaozheng and the others not to make a fuss about his departure. He felt helpless as well, since Mr. Lin had brought up the issue of being a mediator several times.

The grievances between the relatives and the Lin Family, he understood them clearly before; although the face had not been torn, now the two families lived not far apart but never interacted, who knows what unexpected incident happened later.

Is being a mediator easy? And why did Mrs. Lin suddenly have a stroke? Although no one told him the reason, an aged Mr. Zhang could see that there was something unusual going on.

Mr. Zhang told his wife not to ask their eldest son about it. Since the eldest son hadn’t told them, it certainly involved some secret of the Zhou Family; hence, it’s better not to inquire to avoid embarrassing their son.

On this matter, Mr. Zhang made an error. Zhang Guoqing couldn’t bring himself to talk; when it came to that day’s incident, speaking of it would surely make his parents very angry. Plus, he and his wife had been with his parents all the time, so no one had the chance to gossip.

But accidents are everywhere, Xi Zi being cunningly curious kept wondering why the Cheng Family often came to the Zhou Family, while the other members of the Lin Family, except for last time, never appeared?

At the platform, Zhang Guoqing arranged the luggage, entrusted his good friend Liu Ming to take care of the journey, and repeatedly instructed his nephews to keep an eye on Mr. Zhang and his wife, making sure they didn’t leave the train to shop halfway.

He couldn’t express the worry, but there was nothing he could do. Soon, he was starting school and didn’t have time to escort his parents back home.

As time approached, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang boarded the train car, smiling and telling everyone to go back. Seeing their anxious eldest son watching them, they held back tears and smiled to assure him they wouldn’t get off the train halfway.

The train slowly started moving, watching the eldest son running outside the train, Mrs. Zhang couldn’t help but shed tears.

Mr. Zhang waved at him to go back, turning to see his partner crying so hard that even snot came out, and joked, "How about you get off at the next station?"

Xi Zi quickly raised his hand, "I’ll go back with Grandma."

Mr. Zhang patted his eldest grandson on the forehead, "Wishful thinking! Go back and focus on your studies."

"Grandma, don’t cry. We’ll come again for the New Year holiday. Little Aunt said next time I’ll bring the younger ones too, we have enough rooms at home."

Mrs. Zhang took the handkerchief from her partner, shook her head, "Not coming. Beijing is nothing compared to our hometown. The fare is expensive and tiring."

Xi Zi rolled his eyes, whispered, "If we don’t come, what if Little Aunt gets bullied?"

Mr. Zhang smiled, "Who dares to bully her?"

Xi Zi immediately thought of the information he had gathered, whispering in Mr. Zhang’s ear, "In the Big Courtyard, the kids told me, the Lin Family’s eldest daughter almost caused my Little Aunt’s death. Isn’t that being bullied?"

Mr. Zhang was shocked, his eyes widened, "Really?"

"No one in the Big Courtyard doesn’t know about this. That woman was sent to the Northwest, it’s said she can’t come back from there."

Although Xi Zi spoke softly, Mrs. Zhang still heard him, she immediately looked at her partner.

"Learn well what people say."

Zhang Ziwen got closer to them, "Grandpa, we spent a lot of effort on this matter, and have clear information."

"Grandpa, this is like a storybook saga, very exciting. You know why those people get along well with my uncle? My uncle is really impressive, they said he kicked the hospital gate, just one kick, and the whole door fell down, catching the culprit, just like that, dragged by the neck."
