Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 785

Chapter 785: Chapter 659: Do You Think You Should Be Filial to Your Niece?

The night sky was dotted with stars, and the daytime heat had dissipated, leaving a cool breeze. Apart from the occasional frog croak, it was silent all around.

Zhang Guofu stepped out of the main house, stood in the courtyard, and looked up at the sky.

Huang Cuilan eagerly awaited the familiar sound of approaching footsteps, but after a while, she realized he hadn’t entered the house. She hesitated, then took a palm fan and stepped out of the room.

As soon as she stepped out, she saw her husband looking up at the sky. She gazed at the sky in confusion and moved closer to Zhang Guofu, standing beside him and using the fan to ward off mosquitoes.

"Tomorrow will be a sunny day."

Zhang Guofu nodded, "Yes, it will be good weather."

"The team’s wheat is in storage, and I see the neighboring teams are busy with their harvests too. This year, your work unit won’t have to worry about a grain shortage."

Zhang Guofu heard the concern for his work in her words. Watching her frowning slightly as she chased the mosquitoes away for him, he felt warmth in his heart.

Under the moonlight, Huang Cuilan’s face reminded him of when she had just married into the family. The familiar courtyard, the familiar atmosphere, and tonight, his father’s words made him thoughtful.

"What’s wrong?"

Zhang Guofu looked at his wife pushing his right hand and shook his head.

Huang Cuilan, following his gaze, quickly withdrew her hand and rubbed it against her pants leg, as if to rub away a trace of awkwardness.

Noticing this, Zhang Guofu’s eyes darkened, and he swiftly grabbed her right hand.

His hands felt the calluses that had accumulated on her palm since their marriage, and the scar on the back of her hand from cutting a bone when she had just entered the family. Even the small scars, though unseen, he remembered clearly—they were wounds sustained for this family, for him.

"The father of my children? You... you..."

Listening to her voice full of surprise and fear, Zhang Guofu looked up at her face and smiled comfortingly, "Did you just cut your hair? It looks nice. It’s getting late, let’s rest early."

Upon hearing this, Huang Cuilan’s eyes shone brightly in the dark, and she nodded repeatedly, "Okay. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something before sleeping? Why do I feel you’re getting thinner?..."

Seeing her excitement spilling out in words, Zhang Guofu chuckled softly and didn’t reply to her, instead, he hugged her and went back to the room. How could he be hungry just after eating? He didn’t bother to counter her words.

Just as his father said, teach your wife behind closed doors. As long as the person in front of him still loved him and this family, he believed that his efforts would eventually change his wife’s mind.

In the East Wing bedroom, after a moment of passion, Zhang Guofu gently touched the top of his wife’s head, not remembering how long it had been since he had held her like this.

"The money you gave me last time, I still have it. Household expenses are small, and this year I’ve saved up all the school fees for the kids. When you’re in the provincial city, don’t be reluctant to spend."

Zhang Guofu lightly patted her, "Okay."

Huang Cuilan knew her man was a silent type; she laughed it off.
