Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 916

Chapter 916: Chapter 789: Let Loose and Have Fun

As night fell, Zhou Xiaozheng listened to his son-in-law’s words in the Zhou family study, and curled his lips in a mocking smile. It seemed that even the smallest grasshopper dared to jump recklessly!

He glanced again at his calm-faced daughter and son-in-law and smiled knowingly, "Didn’t you two always complain that your dad doesn’t give you anything to do? This time you can go ahead and have fun."

Zhang Guoqing, hearing this, smiled and nudged Zhou Jiao, raising his eyebrows with pride.

"Even if things get big, don’t worry, as long as you don’t suffer. Be arrogant if you need to be. With conflicts between younger generations, how can we as elders intervene? If it gets out of hand, I, as an elder, will send you to the army for training."

Zhou Jiao couldn’t help but laugh at her father’s tone.

Zhang Guoqing, having just received news from Scar, scooted over to his father-in-law and said, "Dad, should I set the bait? If Beauty Liang seeks out Aunt, you need to stand firm."

Zhou Jiao laughed and said, "Just right, let’s see if her family matters more to her than her reputation."

Zhang Guoqing quickly added, "Dad, you don’t know how annoying that old woman is. This time she followed Aunt to our bedroom twice, and her eyes just kept evaluating everything around."

Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at him amusingly, "Really?"

"Has Ping’an talked to you? Every word is probing. I think Liang Jiajun dares to do this because she must be involved. Otherwise, why would she leave Nanhai and wander around the Big Courtyard?"

Zhou Xiaozheng, with a hint of a smile in his eyes, said, "As long as you’re aware, let you young ones play first."

"Then I’ll head out now to prepare the props." Zhang Guoqing clapped his hands excitedly, "You just wait and see the show."

Zhou Jiao watched him step out, instructed him to be careful, shook her head with a smile, then looked at Zhou Xiaozheng and quietly asked, "Dad, are you sure there’s no problem?"

At this, Zhou Xiaozheng took a piece of paper from the drawer, walked over to the coffee table to hand it to her, then sat down to make tea.

Zhou Jiao glanced at his expression, then looked down at the content on the letterhead, frowning. It was a copy of a family letter from Jiang Jiangyu, Lin family’s daughter-in-law, to Old Master Jiang.

The content mentioned that in the Northwest, someone approached her wanting to know Zhou family’s economic dealings, some evidence of wrongdoing, and some matters of the Gu family, offering very generous terms for successful completion.

Is this an attempt to topple our Zhou family?

Zhou Jiao looked up and asked, "So, the account book you had Xiao Wang take from me the day before yesterday?"

"Last week, Elder Jiang handed this letter to the organization under the guise of being framed and slandered. Afterwards, I got news that it was baseless. Coming out of nowhere with a letter to investigate our family, how does that work?

If you’re upright, you don’t have to fear shadows. Out of goodwill, I handed in our family’s expenditures and receipts, demanding they give me a result. The authorities have already sent a work team to the Northwest for investigation."

After finishing, Zhou Xiaozheng lightly shook his head with a smile, "No need to be angry. Since they want to play, we’ll play with them properly. You prepared so much just to prevent these things, right?"

Zhou Jiao rolled her eyes, "So you’ve already found out who’s behind it?"

"Mm-hmm."

Father and daughter exchanged a knowing smile.

"If Liang Jiajun hadn’t exposed himself, where did you plan to start, Dad?"

Zhou Xiaozheng chuckled, "What about you?"

"The stepson taking over."

Zhou Xiaozheng shook his head, "Too involved."

Zhou Jiao frowned in thought. Even if the Liang family were overthrown or demoted, it wouldn’t hurt Beauty Liang fundamentally, and might even draw her into relentless conflict with our family.

Her dad wouldn’t make a loss-making deal!

Zhou Xiaozheng leisurely sipped his tea, watching his daughter out of the corner of his eye, silently calculating when she’d pinpoint the key point.

After a long while, Zhou Jiao looked at her dad with a grudge, "Does it involve exploiting jealousy among women?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaozheng laughed heartily.
