Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Chapter 62: Concerns

Zhou Jiao really needs to think carefully. After all, she’s from the future and understands the upcoming trend better than anyone else. Her dad also has this undercover identity, which is quite a hurdle. Her mom didn’t expect this, so she has to plan ahead.

"Mom, look, your daughter has never asked anything from you. Can you fulfill one need of mine this time? Just one. I love calligraphy the most. Can I ask Dad or Grandpa for a piece of calligraphy from that person? Can they?

No need for those poems, just having ’Zhou Xiaozheng is a good comrade’ is fine, and if it includes ’enduring humiliation for the sake of the greater good’ and ’pillar of the country,’ even better. I want to keep it as our family heirloom for Ping’an. Let my descendants know the hardships of their forebears. Know that his grandpa was also amazing and even praised by the leader.

Do you think Grandpa has one too? Later, let Grandpa also get one for Uncle. This will make the Lin Family the first in Beijing to receive such praise from him." Zhou Jiao stared at her mom with starry eyes, ready to cry if she didn’t agree.

"Alright, I’ll talk to your dad when I see him, okay? I’ll tell your Grandpa to get it; he’ll definitely get it for you. We’ll get several copies for you. That’s not important now; first, take a look at what I’ve prepared for you."

Oh, Mom, you’re still saying it’s not important. What’s so nice about those broken houses of yours? You can’t even go to see them in Beijing. And the foreign money can’t be accessed now, visible but untouchable.

"This address and password are for the foreign bank, and there’s another password for the safe. This key you have to keep safe; it opens the safe. Just this key, don’t lose it, it’s very troublesome to replace.

Don’t tell National Day about this. He only needs to know there’s money. This is the biggest fund Mom has set aside for your fallback. Don’t tell your dad either, or if he asks me to hand it over, we’re doomed.

This was given to me by my eldest aunt, who never married. She secretly transferred all her foreign assets to me on her deathbed." She carefully instructed Jiao Jiao. If lost, explaining overseas assets will be very troublesome.

Zhou Jiao solemnly placed the key and the small notebook together at the bottom of the small wooden box from her grandma; these are not to see the light of day.

"Mom, when you have time, tell me my grandaunt’s story. How can someone unmarried have so much wealth? She must be a legendary woman. Since she acquired overseas assets, she must be a capable woman."

Lin Lishan stroked Jiao Jiao’s head, sighed, and said, "That’s why women need to meet a good man. She couldn’t bear the heartbreak and died young. Ah, I won’t speak of her now. I’ll tell you when I have time. Pretend you don’t know her even if someone asks, except for your grandma’s family, the Gu Family. Nobody knows she’s an orphan from the Gu Family. So even if the Gu Family mentions her, pretend you don’t know. No one knows I had any connection with her. I was only 8 when I met her, running out to play every day as part of the children’s group."

Zhou Jiao nodded to show she understood. Her mom didn’t feel like talking about it, so she decided she’d ask another time.

"These 10 pieces are deposit slips, nameless, and can be withdrawn anytime. For your convenience, I didn’t put them all together.

Over the years, the rent and the New Year’s cash gifts from your Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle and Aunt, second uncle, and little aunt, I’ve deposited all the cash gifts here. When there’s time, go to Beijing and retrieve them to store separately."
