There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

It was high in the sun, and there was still no movement in the East Wing. Aunt Chen gave up on getting the young couple to get up and eat, picked up the cloth bag, went out of the yard, locked the door and left.

In the bedroom, Zhang Guoqing was sleeping soundly on the kang, with his arms tightly around Zhou Jiao under the quilt, and his legs wrapped around her legs, occasionally babbling a few words indistinctly.

Zhou Jiao slowly opened her eyes, unable to stretch her imprisoned legs, she smiled helplessly—this man was domineering in his bones.

Enduring the numbness all over her body, she lay motionless in his arms. It was a rare fine weather, the sun was shining on the curtains, Zhou Jiao half-closed her eyes, thinking about whether to wake him up.

Sweet...hehe...flowers...

Zhou Jiao blushed when she heard the words, and no longer felt sorry for him, she stretched out a hand and slapped him on the forehead.

Zhang Guoqing was awakened, hugged her tightly again, and patted her on the back lightly, Good boy, you were very tired last night, go back to sleep.

Your son called you.

Zhang Guoqing bowed his head and kissed her, Don't make trouble, go to sleep.

My whole body's blood is not smooth, and my legs are numb. I can't sleep, and I have to get up.

Zhang Guoqing grabbed her leg and put it on his waist, rubbing it lightly, Why do you get up, lie down with me, let's chat. You said it would be nice to do this every day.

Hi, I'm not good.

Duplicate woman. You were...

Zhou Jiao quickly covered his mouth and stared at him, Say you're going to sleep in the study tonight.

I'm so courageous, I'm going to do this trick again. See if you accept it? Do you dare to let your man stay in the empty room next time?

There was a turbulence under the bed...

Having been succeeded by this man again, Zhou Jiao pinched him angrily, You did it on purpose!

Zhang Guoqing sealed her mouth with a smile on his face.

Well, his wife is really smart.

...

Zhou Jiao woke up again, she was the only one in the room, and beat the quilt hard. She will have to stun him with drugs next time.

Picking up the clothes and pants that were neatly stacked on one side, after putting them on, Zhou Jiao took a bun from the space to cushion her hungry stomach after washing.

Stretching her head to listen carefully to the silence in the courtyard, Zhou Jiao walked out of the room after hesitating for a while.

Your father will definitely not go back, but I don't know how Jiaojiao decides. I don't want to go to the sacrifice.

Zhou Jiao heard this sentence as soon as she entered the living room, she paused, Grandma Zhou is gone?

Lin Lishan observed her expression subconsciously, feeling full of frustration in her heart. Why are the two fathers and daughters looking the same? What the hell does that mean, to go or not to go?

Zhang Guoqing stood up and pulled her to sit down, You're starving, you talk to mom, I'll go to the kitchen to get something.

Zhou Jiao nodded, Less.

Zhang Guoqing nodded knowingly.

I received an urgent telegram from Zhou's family this afternoon, saying that the old lady left late at night. Lin Lishan handed the telegram to her.

Zhou Jiao took a look, counted the time, passed away the day before yesterday, it seems that the old Zhou family also hesitated for a long time whether to notify her. Thinking of the old lady leaving just like that, she was a little lost.

Jiaojiao, do you want to go back?

Zhou Jiao shook her head, Everything is a matter of death, why go back? In what name? It's fine to leave, I hope the old lady will have a good pregnancy soon.

Lin Lishan asked her uncertainly, Really not going back? You should know that you can still make it in time to send the old man up the mountain. If you are late, it will be too late.

Zhou Jiao shook her head again. For her, the last time she went to see her uncle Zhou Xiaocun, she didn't visit Mrs. Zhou, which meant that her fate was over.

I'm so entangled in my heart. It's hard to go or not. Your aunt and grandma are also old, and it's hard to discuss with her.

Zhou Jiao patted her hand, When the person is gone, who will we go to pay homage to? The old lady didn't want us to pay homage to her, otherwise she would be anxious to see my dad before leaving. My dad is her that morning Yao’s son’s substitute, her dream of “kissing the old son” was shattered. This so-called old son will not kiss.”

Your dad doesn't know what to think. He said he couldn't leave, and he would pay homage to him when he returned to his hometown. Do you think he will feel sad?

It will definitely be sad. After all, he has been raised and played the role of mother for so many years. Even if this role is not fulfilled, the relationship is still there. However, my father thinks the same as me, and he is dead. Besides, our father and daughter are gone. In what capacity do you come to the door? Ask him to wear sackcloth and mourning as the old son of the old Zhou family? What a joke!

Indeed.

So, don't discuss this matter in front of my dad. My grandma passed away, and he didn't wear sackcloth and mourning. Don't poke his scars. Also, the old lady kept my dad's background and made my grandma dozens of I don't want to see my own son to pay homage to the sacrifice for a year. Forget it, I don't want to talk about them.

Zhang Guoqing stopped Aunt Chen and ordered a bowl of noodles himself. When it was brought over, Zhou Jiao's mother and daughter had already discussed something, so they moved on to other topics.

Eat something first.

Xiao Wu, Jiaojiao is sure not to go back.

Zhang Guoqing was not surprised, and nodded to indicate that he understood. With his daughter-in-law's temperament, it would be strange if he went back. It was because he knew too well that he didn't wake up Zhou Jiao as soon as he received the telegram.

After Zhou Jiao finished eating the noodles, she glanced at the time and stood up, I'll pick my dad up from get off work first. I'll leave it to you two.

Zhang Guoqing said with a smile: Go, sweet little padded jacket. I'll pick up my son. Mom is waiting for us at home.

What a caring padded jacket. She hasn't picked me up from my unit yet.

Zhou Jiao laughed happily, and joked, Mom, you're jealous.

Yeah... hurry up and pick up your dad, he should be very happy. He is most happy to take you out to show off.

Zhang Guoqing took off the coats of the mother and daughter, and said with a smile: Mom, we don't envy their father and daughter. Let's go pick up Ping An and show off.

Yes, our mother and I will also go.

The three of them walked to the intersection, Zhou Jiao waved goodbye to them, and turned to Zhou Xiaozheng's unit.

Zhou Jiao came here once before and still had some impressions. She stood at the gate and asked the guard on duty that her father hadn't gone out, so she didn't plan to go in.

I looked at the time and declined the other party's request for notification. Zhou Jiao stayed away from the gate and stood in an inconspicuous place, looking at the gate from time to time.

A few minutes later, Zhou Xiao was leaving get off work with several people, only to see the guard pointing to where Zhou Jiao was standing.

Seeing Zhou Jiao was so happy that she jumped up and down and ran in front of Zhou Xiaozheng.

Slow down. Why don't you come in in such a cold day?

I just came, and I didn't bother you when I got off work. After Zhou Jiao finished speaking, she smiled at a few soldiers beside her, Uncles, I haven't seen you for a long time, why don't you come to my house for a while.

A swarthy man said in a loud voice: Old Zhou, look at how nice your daughter is, and even know how to invite us to visit. What do you think of you?

A middle-aged man wearing glasses on one side asked with a smile, Has Xiao Wu gone hunting with those boys recently?

Zhou Jiao understood in seconds, this is a wild animal. She pretended to whisper to him, Uncle, we don't need Xiao Wu, someone from my hometown just brought a lot of meat. How about it? Have a drink?

Really, that's great. We'll go to your house tonight, girl, you have to cook yourself.

No problem. Let me tell you, my cousin Sijin still has a bottle of good wine from the chairman's grandfather. Don't tell me I'm a whistleblower. He's precious, look... After finishing speaking, he squeezed towards them Wink.

Everyone was amused by her and laughed.

Zhou Xiao was looking at his daughter dotingly beside him. If his daughter wanted to have a good relationship, she would be no worse than her son-in-law.
