There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

After the lively Lantern Festival, as time went by, Zhang's mother missed her wife more and more, and began to think about going back.

In her opinion, the two daughters-in-law followed Mrs. Cheng in and out every day, and she had seen what she should see, and she had completed the task assigned to her by her wife.

Seeing that the old son will start school soon, she will bring her two daughters-in-law to live here too, which will delay everyone's business. Together with this idea, I can't stand it for a moment.

In the bedroom of the East Wing, Zhou Jiao held her mother-in-law's hand, Mother, why don't you let the two sisters-in-law and Xiaomi go back on the train, and you wait here for Dad to come?

Zhang's mother patted her hands: Mother, go back first, and come back two months before your birth. Don't be too serious at school, just be lazy if you can't work.

Mother, the alleys and yards are all neatly tidied up, so you can let dad come here. I'm not used to it there, and it won't cost much if we go to rent another yard near the school. Are you able to bear it if you go back and forth?

Zhang's mother patted her chest happily, Mother is a hundred times stronger than you. And, Jiaojiao, don't mention the matter of the yard to your sister-in-law, and don't plan for your parents to come and live.

Zhou Jiao opened her mouth to explain.

Zhang's mother shook her hand: Don't tell mother that you are not short of money. Mother has watched it for a few days, and these days, you have to live it up. In the early years when our landlords robbed things, mother still remembers , all eyes were red.

After finishing speaking, Zhang's mother clung to her ear and said softly: You are still young and don't understand people's hearts. Do you think your little aunt doesn't take advantage of anyone? But in those years, she rushed to Watching the fun ahead, if she didn't take advantage of the chaos to hide something, I wouldn't believe it if she was killed.

Zhou Jiao was not surprised at all. Father Zhang knew that there were valuables hidden, but he still showed surprise on his face. After all, apart from his in-laws and Zhang Guoqing, the old Zhang family doesn't know anything about the family background.

Seeing this, Zhang's mother was so happy that she burst into laughter.

She hesitated for a moment, then leaned into Zhou Jiao's ear again: Our family won't take advantage of the fire to collude, but we also hid some things secretly in the early years. No one except Xiao Wu knew about it. A few years ago, two hundred catties of cornmeal We can change a small yard in the county seat, and a hundred catties of white flour can be exchanged for a yard in the provincial capital, but we would rather exchange it all for gold than dare to own a yard. Do you know why? We are just worried about the jealousy of outsiders.

Zhou Jiao gave her a thumbs up: You and my father are the best.

After being exaggerated, Zhang's mother was not happy at all, she whispered: Do you understand what mother said?

Zhou Jiao nodded solemnly, and replied in a low voice: Something is hidden from outsiders.

That's right. Don't add anything big to your young couple. Just say that the yard given by the old lady, even if it is changed to another name, why don't you think about why there are ten families living in one yard, and the yard is empty. ?”

Zhou Jiao knew from this meaning that Zhang Guoqing didn't tell her mother-in-law that the yard was recorded under the name of the master. She pursed her lips, wanting to explain, but was interrupted by Zhang's mother.

Also, mother can't trust your father. In the future, don't tell your father and me what your father will give you, or how much money you have earned in private.

Zhou Jiao was really surprised, she looked at her mother-in-law puzzled.

Zhang's mother stretched out her hand and pinned Zhou Jiao's broken hair behind her ear, and sighed softly, Mother saw accountant Zhang and your uncle, and I'm really worried that I will be confused with your father when I grow old.

Zhou Jiao understood this. She frowned slightly: Has he made a fuss at the eldest sister's house?

Zhang's mother smiled and shook her head: Your elder sister is pretty smart, we don't have to worry about her. As parents, they are old and always want to have a similar life for the children in the family. Not to mention him, even your uncle, who lives in the same place. In the Qingshan family, there is still something that misses the other sons.

Mother, if life is difficult for the eldest brother and the second brother, I will take action without Xiaowu. Don't worry about this, as long as you ask me, I will listen to you.

Zhang's mother smiled and touched the top of her head: You, I don't understand. Mother also wants the eldest and the second to live a prosperous life, but she can't keep exploiting my old son.

Zhou Jiao smiled. It's not easy for her to answer these words.

Our family is different from theirs. Zhang's mother put down her hands and looked at Zhou Jiao's eyes struggling, My Xiao Wu was not much older than Ping An, such a small person sneaked up the mountain to hunt. He handed it to me with more than 300,000 yuan. He said mother, don’t worry about it in the future, I can make money to support you when I grow up, and I will definitely let you live a good life in the future.

I cried all night, looking at the blood on the child's face and arms, my heart ached as if a piece of flesh had been dug out. After that, if he didn't pay attention, he would go into the mountains, and sometimes he would leave for several nights without going home, and put the money into my box with a grin on the next day.

Your father said at the time that all the things hidden in the house would be given to Xiao Wu, but I think he said now that in addition to changing things for you, he planned to divide them into three shares in the future.

Zhou Jiao couldn't laugh or cry in her heart. If she remembers correctly, Zhang Guoqing said that his father also said that it would be divided into three shares, but he would choose first. Besides, this is normal, the three sons are all relatives.

I think your father thinks that you are living a good life, and intends to supplement the eldest and second child. If the two of them can't live on, I won't say anything. But now Xiao Wu has arranged for his two brothers properly, and your father still Doing this makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

Unlike other families, if this family didn't have Xiao Wu, it wouldn't be as good as it is today. Even your eldest sister said that the division of the family is an equal share. The eldest and the second bought the county yard, but your small yard is still prepared by your father for you. How can I, a mother, not understand what she said.

In the final analysis, my Xiaowu suffered a big loss. Some time ago, I chatted with your father and mentioned these things. Now your father is still not confused, but I am really worried that he will be like his old brother in the future.

Zhou Jiao knew that some parents would be very biased, but she didn't expect such luck to befall her husband and wife. Following Mother Zhang's words, her eyes gradually turned red, unable to control her mood, she could only lower her head. This is enough, even if nothing is left for himself, everything is enough!

Zhang's mother stroked Zhou Jiao's head: Jiaojiao, my fifth child has had a hard time since he was a child. No matter what happens in the future, you promise your mother to stay with him, okay?

Zhou Jiao choked up and said, Okay.

Mother Zhang put down her hand, patted her on the shoulder, stood up and opened the door to observe the movement outside. After seeing no one, she opened the luggage bag she had just brought in on the kang.

Come here and help your mother.

Looking at the familiar scene, Zhou Jiao rubbed against her and said in a low voice, Mom, keep some good things by your side for self-defense. I don't lack anything.

Zhang's mother glared at her: Don't dawdle, it won't be good when someone comes over to see it. She said, took out a pair of cotton trousers from inside, pointed to the trousers, and signaled her to hurry up.

Zhou Jiao stood there in a daze, this...

Zhang's mother was so fast that she didn't need to look for a needle and thread basket. She picked up a pair of trousers and turned it over. She lowered her head and pulled out a thread end. After biting it off, she pulled out another thread end...

After repeated four or five times, the padded cotton trousers were completely changed, and a few rings and a pair of gold bracelets inlaid with this ruby ​​were pulled out from inside.
