There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

The previously silent city has become day and night, and there are crowds of people everywhere.

Squeezing out of the crowd, the family returned to the compound. Zhou Jiao settled down her sleepy son. The couple were also exhausted and fell asleep.

When the bugle sounded in the early morning, Zhou Jiao woke up and found that Zhang Guoqing had disappeared, and she probably ran to exercise again. Looking at the peace that is not disturbed by the sound and sleeping soundly, he smiled and shook his head.

Her child is a pig, and the quality of sleep makes her envious.

Zhou Jiao went out of the room. Sure enough, her father did not come back last night. As for her mother, needless to say, it is estimated that the next three days will be very busy.

In the kitchen, Aunt Chen had already started making breakfast. When she saw her come in, she smiled and said, Why don't you go to sleep again? The chief asked Xiao Wang to come back last night to see if you are home. I saw that you are already asleep. I see that he has nothing else to do. , didn’t let him bother you, is it okay?”

Zhou Jiao smiled and shook her head, I guess my dad is worried. You can just call me from now on.

Aunt Chen heard the meaning of the words and nodded. It is better to ask for instructions in the future, and it is possible that Xiao Wang is inconvenient to tell himself about some things.

I was sloppy this time. Would you like to have breakfast first?

Zhou Jiao smiled. Even if the matter is over, people are kind. She shook her head, We'll eat when Xiaowu comes back. Auntie will help me keep an eye on the child. I'll go for a run first.

Go, don't run for too long.

When Zhou Jiao jogged out, she found that Zhang Guoqing was already exercising.

Zhang Guoqing approached her slowly, Why don't you sleep a little longer?

I got used to it at school. After Zhou Jiao finished speaking, she waved her hand to signal him to stop talking. She couldn't talk while running, and her physique still couldn't keep up.

Zhang Guoqing smiled and shook his head. Obviously a weak woman has to learn from a woman. If it was an outsider, he would at most say that it was a good job, but his daughter-in-law insisted on running in the morning with her classmates every day, and he could only feel sorry for her. With the sick leave form handled by her father-in-law, she didn't have to work so hard.

After the early exercise, Zhang Guoqing declined the invitation of his friends. It is rare to rest, he would rather be with his wife and children.

After breakfast, the couple took their children to the street. The days passed by in a hurry, getting together less with the children and leaving more, accompanying the children out of the compound during the rare holidays, and seeing more of the old city has always been Zhou Jiao's idea.

The high walls of the compound reject everything from the outside world. Many children do not know the world outside the walls. She is really worried that it will take a long time. My son will also watch the sky from a well.

Dad, there are many people here, including children.

Ping An pointed to the long queue of people.

Zhang Guoqing pointed to the plaque on it with a smile, Look, this is a restaurant. This restaurant doesn't need food stamps, and you can buy it if you have money. He has a nickname of High Price Shop. Do you know what it means?

Ping An nodded, This is not a high-priced store. Grandma said Lao Mo is a high-priced store. Lao Mo is bigger than this, and there is no queue. There are a lot of meat and ice cream in it.

When Zhang Guoqing saw that he had finished speaking, he even licked it with his tongue, laughing dumbfoundedly.

Do you want Dad to take you to Lao Mo?

Pingan hesitated for a while, then shook his head, Grandma said she would take me there in a few days.

Zhou Jiao pursed her lips and smiled. It seems that her mother often takes her children to these places in private.

Where did grandma take you? Does grandpa know?

Grandpa knows. He doesn't like Lao Mo. He always takes me to many grandpa's houses to play. Hello grandma, she takes me to the regiment, and many aunts give chocolate bread. Grandma can drive...

Zhou Jiao shook her head at him, indicating that there were too many people outside, so he couldn't speak anymore.

Zhang Guoqing finally knew why the child didn't cry and beg him. With so many programs, how could he have time to think about the two of them.

The canteen in the village, do the children in the village remember? Many children have no food to eat, so don't let your grandma take you to high-priced stores in the future. Let your mother prepare for you what you want to eat.

Ping An sneaked into his ear and whispered, Grandpa said that grandma took me there on purpose because she was hungry. What he meant was that he didn't want to go.

Zhang Guoqing suppressed a smile. This little guy is thinking carefully now. Grandpa deliberately teased grandma, do you think grandma ordered something you like?

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao tugged at their father and son, We'll talk about it when we go home. Come down safely and see what you like.

The largest department store has added a lot of products compared to the past, and the counters are crowded with people.

Zhou Jiao looked over from the door and stopped quickly. She thought that apart from the pastries and candies in the non-staple food, other things would not be snapped up, which seemed to be beyond her imagination.

Let's go. Let's take the kids to the bookstore. Everywhere is crowded today.

Zhang Guoqing pulled her up and left with the child. It is impossible to think of fewer people during the holidays. If it weren't for the father-in-law who would be at home, he would have wanted his children to go to the suburbs to get close to nature and let them go to the countryside to learn more.

The family went shopping and bought a few new children's newspapers and comic books, but found that there was really nothing to do. Finally decided to go home.

It was already sunset when Zhou Xiaozheng came back. When he entered the house, he found that they hadn't gone out, so he asked curiously, Why don't you go out for a walk today?

I thought you would come back at noon, and I wanted to wait for you. Dad, don't you need to go out at night?

Zhou Xiaozheng pointed to the outside, The car is still waiting outside. There are too many foreign guests these two days, and we have to be busy. Do you want to go there with Dad? There will be a big performance tonight.

Zhou Jiao shook her head quickly. She was too lazy to deal with the big shots she had to meet as soon as she passed by.

He looked at Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Guoqing also shook his head. Others did not bring their family members, and if they went there, they would have to face a bunch of curious eyes and all kinds of suspicions.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao hurriedly informed Aunt Chen to have dinner. Fortunately, she prepared a lot of dishes early, otherwise she would go home hungry again with her father's taste.

After dinner, Zhou Xiaozheng changed his clothes and patted his daughter, It's rare to have a vacation, go out for a walk, don't be afraid to spend money. Dad won't be free these days, so I need to find Secretary Chen.

Zhou Jiao saw that Secretary Chen had already looked at the wall clock frequently, knowing that time was running short, she nodded quickly to reassure him.

After sending Zhou Xiaozheng away, they didn't go out after that. Every day their parents leave early and return late, they are not at ease. At least seeing them come back safely in the middle of the night, having a bowl of supper and chatting a few words, I feel more or less comforted.

What's more, there are many people coming to the house during the day. It wasn't a gathering of buddies from the big courtyard, or Yi Jiefang brought his good buddies from the empty courtyard over.

There are good and bad among the guests, and no one can say whether everyone has other thoughts. Zhou Jiao immediately opened up a new space for them to toss.

The West Wing, which had been idle for a long time, finally had a place to use. Zhou Jiao directly asked Aunt Chen to clean up and let them make trouble inside. This will not affect your daily life.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, Zhou Jiao hadn't made two pairs of Ping An's large cotton shoes, and the holiday was over. Before she had time to chat with her father, it was the back-to-school date.

If Zhou Jiao had to choose, she really didn't like holidays. Usually I can still see people when I go home, but now that I'm fine, I haven't had time to say anything.

No matter how thoughtful she was, life still had to be lived, so she could only reluctantly leave and go back to school.
