Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9 - 6: Gaining a Dimensional Space

"Alright, you go to your father's courtyard first. There are rooms for you there, and I've already given the orders. I've also kept your father's study as it is, so let the butler know if anything needs to be repaired or supplemented."

After Mr. An, the couple lost interest in touring the garden, even though they made great efforts to create a joyful atmosphere in the main house. They couldn't ignore the fact that the elder wouldn't be with them for much longer.

The old house is quite large. Even with a quick glance, one could sense the deep heritage of a century-old dwelling. Fortunately, Mr. Zhang's courtyard isn't far from the main house; otherwise, it would be easy to get lost without someone to guide them.

Upon reaching the courtyard, it seemed very nice, albeit too spacious. Even if the whole family lived there, it would still feel empty. Thankfully, all around were ornamental trees and flowers; if it were filled with large century-old trees, towering and thick, Jiao Jiao wouldn't have the courage to live there alone.

Likely because the place is cleaned often, it's very tidy, and the luggage they brought has already been placed in the room.

The Zhang Family's butler, Uncle Guang, was very kind to the young couple. The elder, having never married, grew up with the current elder of the Zhang Family, which he referred to as "the elder young master." The little young master was also brought up by him, referring to National Day's father.

Now seeing the little young master finally return home, the elder secretly wiped tears of relief as he looked at Zhang Guoqing. Comforting the young couple, he said, "Little young master, you should rest first. I'll arrange dinner. Is there anything you particularly like to eat? You can tell Uncle Guang whatever you want. The study next to you is your father's. I've kept it untouched because I knew you would come back one day. If there's anything you need, be sure to tell Uncle Guang. I'll show you around the house when you have time."

Zhang Guoqing immediately helped Uncle Guang. He didn't dare to casually call him Uncle Guang, as he was an elder of the Zhang Family who grew up with Grandpa Zhang and watched over Mr. Zhang as he grew up.

With a smile, he said, "Grandpa Guang, you're getting older; don't tire yourself. There's plenty of time. We can take our time exploring the garden. Please assign tasks to others instead."

Uncle Guang was anxious and waved his hand vigorously, "Your Grandpa Guang isn't that old yet. I still need to help take care of the little young master. I can still lift 200 pounds without a problem."

Zhang Guoqing comfortingly replied, "Yes, yes, Grandpa Guang is indeed young. Look at what I'm saying; I just don't want you to tire yourself. We need you to stay with us for a long time."

"Alright, alright, little young master, in a few days you and your wife should remember to pay respects at your parents' grave. I've prepared everything. After more than 20 years, I finally waited for you to come back. Now, I can finally see you. In the future, when I pass, I can explain things to the matron and the young master. The old master was indeed unkind, not arranging for you to come back sooner. He's old and confused. As long as I'm here, let's see who dares to touch my little young master. You must not leave again. This is your home. No one else should think about taking it. Uncle Guang promised the elder young master to take care of this home."

Uncle Guang was worried. Who knew how hard the little young master's life had been? Now, he just wanted to see the little young master have children and grow up. Who knows what the second house was planning? Nothing could go wrong under his watch. He still needed to prepare for the child's birth and check if the old master's health could last longer. Alas, there were too many issues in the family. The people from the second house didn't want to leave yesterday. This is the little young master's home. He needed to live a few more years to support the little young master well.

"The elder is truly good to us. He genuinely cherishes our father. I can see in his eyes the full joy," she remarked.

"Hmm..." Zhang Guoqing was also troubled. So much had happened in the past two days, and he had been touched deeply. He never imagined that so many people would be concerned and make arrangements for him without him knowing. In truth, he was fortunate. He had loving parents, even though they were no longer of this world, a loving grandfather, a devoted old butler, a wife he loved dearly, and soon, a baby to be born.
