There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

When Huang Cuilan's sisters-in-law got up in the small courtyard of the Zhou family, Ping An in the courtyard had already finished her horse stance, greeted them with a smile, and continued to practice boxing.

Zhou Jiao in the East Wing heard the movement and hurried out, Sister-in-law woke up? Why don't you lie down for a while?

Lin Juhua pointed to the children in the yard, and said with a smile: You can't let our family watch jokes safely.

Jiaojiao, Ping'an is still young. Huang Cuilan looked at the child distressedly, and finally uttered a word after hesitating to speak.

Zhou Jiao heard the meaning of her words, and smiled happily: Sister-in-law, he is used to it.

I thought the child would practice in his hometown. But ah, he is old at the age of three. Our family will have a great future after our family is safe, but the child is exhausted.

Stop praising him. The children in our family are all good. Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, let's have breakfast after you wash your face.

Lin Juhua stretched out her head and looked around, then asked suspiciously, Where's mother?

I heard from Pingan that his father went out with grandma early in the morning and would not come back until the afternoon. Sister-in-law, where are you going today? I will accompany you.

Huang Cuilan glanced at her stomach, then shook her head: I've done all the shopping in the past two days, and I still won't go out.

I don't want to go out either, the three of us have a good chat, it's better than going to the street.

Zhou Jiao nodded with a smile.

After breakfast, she sent Lin Lishan off to work, and Mrs. Cheng also came over when the time came. When she learned that Zhang Guoqing took his mother to go shopping, she smiled and praised a few words.

Jiaojiao is inconvenient. I'll take you to the street. Is there any place you want to go?

No, you're always sitting.

Mrs. Cheng remembered going to Dong'an Market the day before yesterday. The two of them were very interested, so she waved her hand, It's rare to come to the capital, what is there to do at home? Let's go out with my old lady for a stroll.

Zhou Jiao looked at Aunt Cheng's family and saw her pointing outside with a smile, knowing that the old man had already connected the car, and looked at the two sisters-in-law again, seeing that they were also hesitant, and urged them to follow.

Ping An also went with us, and we won't come back at noon.

Okay, wait for me, I'll add another dress for the child.

With her son accompanying her, Zhou Jiao felt even more at ease. After taking Ping An back to the room, she stuffed the ticket to the child, and secretly ordered a few words.

Ping An saluted: I promise to complete the task.

Don't be too obvious, follow your grandma.

After sending them away, Zhou Jiao went back to the bedroom, took out a package from the wooden box, and opened it on the kang—it was full of tanned wolf fur and rabbit fur.

It's not that she doesn't have good goods, but that she is worried about causing trouble to Zhang's father and Zhang's mother.

Zhou Jiao took out 300 yuan of brand new ten-yuan bills (the largest denomination at that time), and took out dark blue dark pattern thick cloth and some cotton.

After cutting out a padded jacket and vest material with scissors, a thin layer of cotton was wadding on it, and after a few stitches were fixed with a needle and thread, the wolf fur was attached, and two large hidden pockets were made inside the two front lapels, and the money Separate them and sew them to death at the bottom, so that her mother-in-law will not worry about being stolen if she carries them with her.

With a sewing machine, it doesn't take long for a finished product to be completed. After looking at it, Zhou Jiao nodded in satisfaction. Now there is no withdrawal from other places, and it is very inconvenient to go out.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jiao bought fabrics from abroad and made ten pairs of boxer shorts for her mother-in-law. She was worried that she would not get used to them, so she deliberately made them loose. Hidden pockets were sewn inside four of them, so it was convenient for her elderly to hide money.

After the end, in order to avoid embarrassment, Zhou Jiao cut out a large piece of fabric and stuffed it into the bag - saving it for her mother-in-law to make shorts for her father-in-law. It's not that she treats them differently, after all, she is a daughter-in-law.

In this era, the mother-in-law was still alive, and she made leggings for the father-in-law. If it is light, it will become a joke, and if it is serious, it may be spread as a scandal. And she guessed that her old-fashioned father-in-law couldn't accept it either.

In order to avoid favoritism, the heart of the old man was chilled. Next, she specially prepared two knee pads for Father Zhang, and a dark gray padded jacket and vest for his old man.

When Zhang's mother and Zhang Guoqing came back, Mrs. Cheng and her party hadn't come back yet. Seeing this, Zhou Jiao took the opportunity to drag the two of them back to the room, and took out the padded jacket and vest for her to put on.

Why do you make new ones? Didn't you already send a big bag a year ago. Jiaojiao, don't make new ones in the future, your mother and your father won't be able to wear them at all, and you don't want to give them away.

Zhou Jiao nodded with a smile, Well, I won't do it in the future.

Mother Zhang gave her a white look. I said that every day, and I didn't see one thing missing. Compared with the child's filial piety, what she feels more distressed is that she dare not wear new clothes casually outside to publicize.

Zhang Guoqing coaxed his mother to try it on to see if it fit. When Zhou Jiao hinted that money was hidden in the clothes, he nodded slightly. Both husband and wife understand that they can't reveal it before they get in the car.

Mother, just wear it on your body, it's warm, and you won't be afraid of getting cold in the car.

Zhang's mother quickly wanted to take it off: No, it's ruined by the car.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly pulled her back, the two girls were busy seeing each other for a while, and they could be regarded as Zhou Jiao who was very happy.

Mom, what you're wearing isn't a waste. Just go back and wash it. When the weather is warmer, it won't look brand new and straight. It's just right.

After Zhou Jiao finished speaking, she was still a little hesitant when she saw her, so she pulled her to sit down, and threw the package to her casually, which also successfully diverted Zhang's mother's attention.

What is this for?

Seeing her busy unwrapping the package, Zhang Guoqing saw a stack of boxer shorts sharply. He pretended not to know, and immediately turned and went to the top of the wardrobe to take out the luggage bag.

Before, he got a large stack of grass-yellow tarpaulins, which were stitched together by Zhou Jiao into seven or eight large luggage bags. Compared with the military luggage bag issued by his father-in-law, it is more convenient to use.

After being asked for one by Yi Jiefang, friends borrowed one after another, and now there are only three left in the family. To be honest, if it weren't for the good relationship between those people, Zhang Guoqing would really be reluctant.

After the conversation between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to an end, Zhang Guoqing took a luggage bag and put it on the ground, stuffing some things he bought today into it.

Zhou Jiao took the opportunity to tie up the parcel and handed it to him, and said to Zhang's mother, Mother, you must not prepare the child's clothes. Ping An's clothes are too small for the child to wear.

Speaking of Ping An's huge clothes, Zhang's mother thought of Mr. Lin. She saw no one mentioned the Lin family when she came here this time, so she never asked about it no matter how curious she was.

There are only family members at the moment, so she couldn't help asking questions in her heart.

Zhang Guoqing packed the luggage bag and lifted it aside, glanced at Zhou Jiao, and said with a smile: It was written in my letter to my father before, but he didn't tell you?

Wow. Your dad said it, but you didn't say they moved away.

Zhang Guoqing suddenly realized that he really didn't mention what happened later. He smiled and sat next to his mother, and explained it in detail.

As Zhou Jiao expected, Zhang's mother frowned, sighed, and persuaded: I have to visit the old man when I have time. In the eyes of outsiders, the culprit has passed away, and the person has gone away. After all, the living old man has the kindness to raise your mother, and your mother cannot have a good life today without his support.

After Zhang's mother finished speaking, she patted Zhou Jiao's hands: Son, no matter how bad your grandpa is, at least you can rely on his name to protect you from a lot of grievances in Lao Zhou's house.

Zhou Jiao somewhat understood what her mother-in-law said was reasonable. The name of a person, the shadow of a tree. It was true that there was a rumored grandfather before, and everyone gave himself a little face when he was outside.

Let's not talk about whether he is relative, just because he is a hero, we ordinary people who have survived and lived a stable life have to respect him. Isn't the old man getting old?

Zhou Jiao nodded slightly: Okay, I will consider it.
