Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 760

Chapter 760: Chapter 635: Don’t Knock Yourself Out with the Sleeping Powder

When Zhang Guoqing and his wife were left speechless, over at the old courtyard, Xi Zi and the others were also talking to Mr. Zhang and Mother Zhang about the events of the night.

The night was even more astonishing than the day. As for Ping’an’s skill with little stones, they knew it must have been taught by their little uncle, feeling both surprised and envious.

But tonight really shattered their understanding of a five-year-old child. His mind was like a sieve, one careless move and you would be caught.

"Grandpa, you missed the scene. He was just sitting on the tree trunk, watching a group of kids fighting, while directing them. Those kids were so naive, they listened to him."

"Haha... I nearly died laughing. We heard the commotion and rushed over, only to look up and see it was our Ping’an."

Xi Zi said helplessly, "More than ten kids, around seven or eight years old, were all on the ground, only three won, even though their clothes were torn. Ping’an climbed down the tree to give them three candies, stood on his tiptoes, patted their shoulders, and praised them as good warriors, encouraging them to keep it up. Next time if he’s not around, they could use wild fruit as candy, whoever won would get to eat it."

Mr. Zhang laughed heartily. He didn’t think his grandson did anything wrong; who in the village hadn’t been in a fight?

"Grandpa, you’re still laughing... I saw this little guy still stirring things up, so I quickly carried him away. Guess what he did afterwards?"

Mr. Zhang and Mother Zhang looked at their grandchildren with interest, waiting for the rest of the story.

Seeing this, Mai Miao quickly pulled Xi Zi’s clothes, stomping her feet, "Big brother, don’t say anymore."

Mother Zhang grabbed her, "Don’t interrupt."

"Grandma..."

Xi Zi smiled and said, "If anyone talked to the sisters for a bit longer, he would say men and women shouldn’t be too close and told them to play with us. As a result, none of them dared to go near them."

Mother Zhang patted the granddaughter in her arms, "Silly child. Your brother is protecting you, you should be happy. In the future, you three sisters shouldn’t play with wild boys."

Compared to ten-year-old Mai Miao, seven-year-old Mai Sui and Yaya didn’t know the deep meaning behind it, so they foolishly smiled and nodded repeatedly, "We won’t play with wild boys."

Ziwen said to Mr. Zhang on the side, "Grandpa, how do you think little uncle taught little Ping’an? Last night Tie Dan and the others almost got led into a ditch by him..."

"... That’s not all. When we were stewing the snake, his tongue was really sharp, directing us in circles, that little clever one both coaxed and tempted us, keeping us so busy."

Listening to the words from his grandson and granddaughter, Mr. Zhang felt secretly proud. This little grandson of his was nothing to worry about, with Brother Zhou teaching him, how could he be lacking.

Others didn’t know the background of their little grandson, but he knew quite a bit from his elder son’s few words. But it’s best not to say these out loud. He agreed with what his elder son said, it’s wise to hide one’s abilities.

The next morning at four, Little Ping’an jumped off the bed, first going to the window to look outside, grinning at the blue sky and fiery sunrise.

Zhang Guoqing came into the bedroom hearing the commotion, smiling, "So happy?"

"Daddy, it won’t rain today, the weather is great."

"Little genius. Come, let daddy help you get dressed, your mom has already prepared your favorite breakfast, we’ll set off right after eating."

"Daddy, I want my bow."

Zhang Guoqing dressed him in his outer clothes and pants, picked him up, and nodded with a smile.

The table in the living room was set with a hearty breakfast. Five eggs, a plate of sliced sausage, a dish of tomato and cucumber slices, a bottle of beef sauce, three bowls of white porridge, and ten steamed buns.

Zhang Guoqing checked around the house, eliminating danger, "Now many have been caught, there aren’t many fish left. We’ll try using the net when we go back."

"Mom, are you scared being here alone?"

Zhou Jiao shook her head, "I have weapons. You and dad be careful."

Zhang Guoqing instructed worriedly, "If an unfamiliar man approaches, use the sedative to knock him out immediately. Some people are ridiculously brave, they have no scruples in the wilderness. If anything happens, fire a shot for warning; my son and I will be close by and won’t go far. Remember, don’t leave the cabin!"

Zhou Jiao gave him a sidelong glance, "Got it, I’ll pay attention while cooking. You go ahead, I can take on two or three men."

Zhang Guoqing looked at his wife, eyes twinkling with joy, speechless. No wonder she insisted on coming into the mountains; she had already planned this in her heart? He somewhat regretted falling for her charms. How did he agree to this last night in a daze?

But seeing Zhou Jiao’s calm demeanor, he wasn’t worried anymore. If some blind fool dared to covet his wife, he would ensure those people didn’t leave any bones behind.

"If a wolf pack comes, you know what to do, right?"

Zhou Jiao pushed him out the door speechlessly. This question had worn her ears to calluses. Dude, you’re so young and already such a nag, isn’t it too much?

Seeing this, Ping’an giggled, the little rascal deliberately yelled, "Mama, don’t confuse the wind direction and end up knocking yourself out with the sedative."

Hearing this, Zhang Guoqing laughed heartily, seeing her embarrassed and angry face, he quickly took his son and slipped away.

As for wolves and such, his wife was full of secret weapons, being able to protect herself until he returned was no problem, he really wasn’t worried.
