Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 749

Chapter 749: Chapter 624: Midnight Operation

After dinner, Zhou Jiao held Mother Zhang back, letting her chat with her husband and son, while she took the three girls to clean up the mess. After tidying up the kitchen, it was already dark.

In the yard, Zhang Guoqing handed two torches to Xi Zi and Ziwen. "Have fun, but be sure to stay safe. Don’t disregard the sachets you’re wearing. They ward off snakes and bugs."

"Uncle, don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on the younger ones."

Indeed, Zhang Guoqing was worried, after all, his son was with them.

He nodded with a smile, then instructed Ping’an, "Don’t be careless. If you get hurt, your mom will definitely ground you and cancel all your activities! Son, be careful!"

Little Ping’an stood proudly and saluted with a "Yes sir!" sound. "Mission accomplished!"

"Do you really not want me to go with you?"

As soon as Zhang Guoqing finished speaking, everyone in the yard burst into laughter.

Mr. Zhang smiled and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Keep an eye on Ping’an. Hurry out, or it’ll be daylight soon."

Mother Zhang smiled at her eldest son. "They often go out, don’t worry!"

"Brother, wait for me. I’ll quickly say goodbye to my mom."

Just then, Zhou Jiao stepped out of the kitchen and replied, "Mom heard, go out and be safe."

"Okay~"

A bunch of kids cheered as they ran out of the house, leaving the yard exceptionally quiet with only four adults remaining.

"Why don’t you take a walk around the village and rest early? There’s no need to come back tonight. Let Ping’an sleep here if he gets tired."

Zhang Guoqing: "Dad, we’ll keep you and Mom company for a while. We’ll leave when Uncle and the others arrive."

"No need, they’ll just start chatting with you endlessly."

Thinking of the evening’s plans, Zhang Guoqing stood up and smiled, "Alright. Call me if you need anything."

"Mom, we’re leaving. There’s some snacks in your room. Don’t cook in this hot weather."

Mother Zhang nodded with a cheerful smile.

Watching the young couple leave, Mr. Zhang laughed and said, "Wife, you’re not being fair! Why didn’t you tell me there were snacks at home? What do we have?"

"Haha... Jiao Jiao brought a big bag to our room this morning. It should have been placed there. I haven’t looked at what’s inside. Why don’t you go see?"

"If that kid is hiding it, it’s surely good stuff even if I don’t look," Mr. Zhang said, looking up at the stars in the sky. Suddenly he said, "Wife, choose a good day, and we’ll take the kids to burn some paper money at their grandparents’ graves."

"Okay."

"When they come over later, don’t take my box of good wine."

Mother Zhang was momentarily at a loss. They were just a bit sentimental and now back to talking about wine? She replied with mild annoyance, "Got it! Even if you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t have been willing."

"And don’t touch my special wine."

Mother Zhang playfully scolded, "You might as well let people come over and only drink water."

"That won’t do!"

The couple happily chatted in the yard. Meanwhile, Zhang Guoqing, who had just left, pulled Zhou Jiao back home without going to find the kids, at her persuasion.
