There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Zhou Xiao was outside when he heard bursts of laughter coming from the back room. Zhang Guoqing beside him had sharp ears, but when he heard a few words, he laughed secretly when he saw the veiled face of the old man.

The two entered the back room, Zhou Xiaozheng watched them laughing, and said cheerfully: Auntie, it seems that you and Jiaojiao have hit it off, how is it? Is our Jiaojiao very smart and beautiful? I know you must like this child. It's not that I'm praising how good my girl is, it's that no one can compare to my Jiaojiao.

Old lady Cheng nodded straight with a smile, He is indeed a good boy. We Jiaojiao are blessed, as far as the old Zhang family is concerned, this marriage is good, the in-law's family is good, and the partner you are looking for is good. Really good. My childhood sweetheart, my childhood sweetheart, you two must support me well in the future.

Zhang Guoqing nodded solemnly, Auntie, don't worry, I will take good care of Jiaojiao and the child. You always look after me, if one day I don't do well, you will beat me hard.

The old lady Cheng nodded in satisfaction, Aunt and grandma believe in you. It can be seen that your mind is more mature than your peers, and you know what you want. Your parents are well-educated. You and your wife must be filial to them in the future. Especially Jiaojiao, Xiao Wu's parents handed over their excellent son to you, you must spend time with Xiao Wu, and don't forget the kindness of your parents.

Your parents are busy with work, so they will not be able to take good care of you in life. Don’t be afraid of your little couple encountering difficulties. In the future, you can find your aunt and grandma if you need help. As long as you act straight, our Gu family will never be cornered again.

Zhou Jiao nodded straight after hearing this, thinking of the Gu family, thinking of her own grandpa and grandma, she was a little preoccupied for a while, she should also leave a way out for everything, people, a lifetime is too long, and there are too many accidents. She absolutely can't let her children and future brothers repeat the retreat of Zhou Gu's family.

Mother Zhang was very moved when she heard Mrs. Cheng's words. This is the elder.

Zhou Xiaozheng saw that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, and his girl was probably worried about the future, so he hurriedly put the suitcase in Zhou Jiao's hand, saw her looking up at him in surprise, and deliberately patted her forehead, complaining: I want to What? Children are in charge of eating and drinking for themselves. Everything is up to you. This is a relic left by your grandparents. You keep it for your father. Your mother and I are not that careful, so you can put it away .”

Zhou Jiao frowned, glanced at her mother, saw that she really didn't care, looked at her with a smile, and breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly remembered the family jade pendant and seal in the keepsake, just about to speak, but swallowed it back, planning to wait until later when no one would talk to her father again. She has a lot of questions in her mind and hasn't talked to her dad yet, so don't worry about it.

Zhou Xiao was watching her put away the box, remembering his girl's hesitation to speak just now, he understood roughly what she wanted to say, and smiled secretly. His girl thought of it, how could he not think of it, that's why he gave it to her directly. There are still many things that are inconvenient to talk to others, and they can only wait for their father and daughter to think about it when they are free.

Zhou Xiaozheng saw that it was almost time for dinner, and said to Mother Zhang: Second sister-in-law, dinner is about to be served at home, let's all go out. After eating, you can come over and chat with Jiaojiao.

When Mother Zhang heard this, she patted herself straight, and said with a smile: Look at my brain, let's go, everyone, let's go have lunch first, and then go to the room to have a good chat. Aunt Jiaojiao, let's go first Eat something to fill your stomach.

Zhou Jiao sent them out with her son in her arms, went back to the inner room, put down her son, thought for a while, took back two boxes, kept staring at the two boxes without opening them, and just pondered secretly there.

The two boxes are suitcases that were popular during the Republic of China, one is a boxy box made of wicker and rattan, and the other is supposed to be a combination box brought back from abroad. Thinking of her grandma taking out the ordinary wooden box to hold the Gu family heirloom jade pendant and the Zhou family seal, she averted her eyes and thought deeply on the willow and rattan box.

After so many decades, the willow and rattan suitcase has been well preserved, and the surface of the outer box has been wiped shiny. It should be her aunt who wiped it often. No burrs can be seen, and even the small keyhole on it is brand new without any rust.

She thought to herself, if she was her grandma, there was a plan to feign death at that time, and when she went out with her clothes, besides the combination box, there should be a relatively large suitcase for things. She had to carry it with her, and with her wealth at the time, such a rough-looking box would not hold heavy objects, nor could it hold heavy objects. Then why did her grandma carry the lockbox with her until she died? Could it be that her grandfather brought her to the door in distress?

Zhou Jiao frowned, thinking hard, and resolutely touched the four corners, carefully feeling if there was anything abnormal. In the end she smiled wryly.

She imagined that her grandma would definitely leave her father's whereabouts in the box, or leave a letter to her father. Given that the only daughter of the Gu family was raised by a man, she couldn't have imagined that if she was in trouble and the Zhou family didn't send the child back, how would Liu Xizhi find the child? The betrayal of the Gu family is real, will she trust Zhou Jiaren naively? She would rather give up even Wan Guan's family wealth to take back the child, so she must be worried about Zhou Jiaren. But how could you not stay behind?

Zhou Jiao still wanted to open it to see if there was a mezzanine inside, but the key was not with her, so she could only wait for her father to come back. She had a premonition that her talented grandmother must have left a letter, but the aunt never thought of destroying the box, or she forgot the reminder her sister gave her back then.

Zhou Jiao sighed deeply, she wanted to find a few words to give her dad some comfort. Don't look at her father's smiling face now, but she still feels heartache and sadness, and is forced to go nowhere by her own people one after another. Grandma is like this, her father is like this, and she is like this. What about the Gu family and the Zhou family, they all forgot about their main house Raising their side room, she gritted her teeth with hatred when she thought about it.

Her dad wouldn't understand, wouldn't he understand? In the ancestral hall of Zhou's family, seeing the high-ranking tablet from a distance, she suddenly felt ridiculous, wondering if the grandparents above would dislike the cousins ​​around her.

Both father and daughter don't like to show their wounds to others, and they both bear it silently, just like bearing all the injustices silently. Maybe her grandma left a letter to her father, he should feel better, at least the father and daughter still have the love of blood.

After putting away the suitcase, Zhou Jiao patted her son gently, her mind running fast. This time, she must make her father work hard to make people, and must train her younger brothers well, so that the Zhou family in the capital cannot fall under her generation. In case there is really no way to have a younger brother, she decided to give birth to a son as soon as possible with her surname Zhou.

After hearing what had happened to the Gu family, she had only one thought. In the future, the Zhou family in the capital city could only be the Zhou family in the capital city. They could come and go as long as they wanted. Even if the Gu family members died at her door, she would walk away with a smile.
