Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1182

Chapter 1182: Chapter 1055: The Foolish Dad Returns

After three days of exams, everyone completed the exams smoothly.

For the Ping’an Brothers, this exam was relatively simple. Even the examinees from the Cheng Family and the Wen Family felt very confident.

Especially after everyone gathered and compared answers, although the estimated scores couldn’t compare with the prodigy May 1st, they were all high and surely enough to apply to a university.

Ping’an and Liu Yi’s question types were slightly different, but after Zhou Jiao confirmed their answers, even if they weren’t perfect, they were nearly flawless.

Old Mrs. Cheng was delighted and said, "Although the scores haven’t come out yet, it looks like you can get into a university. Let’s celebrate early this weekend."

This suggestion from the old lady was naturally met with no objections, as both families were very grateful to Zhou Jiao. According to the children, she’s truly a treasure.

So everyone confirmed to gather at the Cheng Family’s house this weekend.

After everyone dispersed, Zhang Guoqing excitedly patted his three sons on the shoulders. If not for their height, he would have loved to ruffle their hair. How did they get so smart?

He sincerely felt the joy and satisfaction of being a father.

Seeing this, Ping’an flashed a radiant smile, "Dad, want to spar a couple of rounds?"

"Sure, let’s go to the yard."

May 1st saw his two brothers eagerly running with their father and quickly pulled Zhou Xiaozheng, "Grandpa, come show us some moves, let’s see what our generations got."

Zhou Xiaozheng, rarely seen with a smile, lifted his sweater and laughed, "Great! Today we three generations will have a blast."

Watching them head to the yard, Zhou Jiao shook her head and chuckled. Only in her family could the way of celebrating joy be so peculiar. Fortunately, strangers couldn’t enter the yard without permission.

Otherwise, one would think the elders were scolding the younger generation for poor exam results!

The family braved the cold wind in the yard, watching the three generations spar back and forth.

It started well enough, with one-on-one according to the rules, while the family on the sidelines clapped and cheered vigorously.

Zhou Xiaozheng retired to the living room to take a break...

Hearing the commotion, several service soldiers including Xiao Zheng couldn’t take it and jumped in for a warm-up.

And so, as they fought, it quickly turned into a snowball fight.

That day, feeling elated, Zhang Guoqing whimsically sent a telegram back to the old home. Perhaps in his excitement, he playfully kept it to just a few words.

—— Ping’an Brother trio has finished the college entrance exam.

"Jiao Jiao, what do you think, will Mom and Dad be shocked?"

Zhou Jiao was amused by his childishness, bursting into laughter.

"Why not just call them?"

"Telegrams are better. I’m worried that after taking the call, in this snowy weather, they’d be so shocked they’d slip on the way home."

He estimated that his parents would be both surprised and delighted by the sudden news, not without a hint of showing off about his three sons.

Whether it was showing off or not, Mr. Zhang indeed got a surprise from his son.

After reading the telegram, he rubbed his eyes, not quite believing as he looked at his wife, "Darling, didn’t Xiao Wu say only Ping’an was taking the college entrance exam this time?"

Mother Zhang nodded seriously, "Yes, why?"

Mr. Zhang burst into laughter. He hadn’t miscalculated!

"Got a screw loose!"

"I’m telling you, Xiao Wu said Ping’an Brother trio has finished the college entrance exam. It seems that all three of our grandsons should have passed."

Having lived here for a long time, like the younger sister Huang Juan from the Chen Family on the right, who, though not family, feels like it, always takes her along whenever there are defective goods at the supply and marketing cooperative.

As for the Wang Family’s younger sister, her husband also brings them benefits from the meat joint factory. Although they’re usually scraps and bones, these things aren’t easy to buy normally.

What genuine people!

Later, she’ll have to ask her husband to exchange some things for them back in the village.

Mr. Zhang, whom his wife was worried about, went for a stroll, although he didn’t say a word to outsiders, all of Old Zhang’s family was in on the news in no time.

That night, except for Xi Zi’s family who worked in the provincial city, all four branches of the Zhang Family gathered in Zhang Guoqing’s small courtyard.

Zhang the Second was the first to arrive, looking around, he called out to Mother Zhang: "Mom, where’s Dad?"

Could Mother Zhang say her husband went to get some shady goods? And really, her second son was sharp.

She ran up to him and whispered, "Keep your voice down, go to the meat joint factory to pick up your dad after ten. He’s probably drinking with Uncle Wang now."

"Okay. My dad’s social network is even better than mine."

"Of course. Are you hungry? Let Mom get you something to eat."

Zhang the Second shook his head with a smile, taking off his coat, "I ate before coming, don’t bother. We won’t let ourselves go hungry, save the good stuff to eat with Dad."

As he finished speaking, noise erupted outside, causing him to shake his head with amusement, "Look at that, a whole family has come, no matter how much we have, it’s never enough for them."

"What nonsense, keep it down, or they’ll think you’re stingy with their kids."

Upon hearing that, Zhang the Second’s eyes glinted, he watched his mother go out to greet them and pursed his lips.

All spoiled! If not for his eldest brother, who does Huang Cuilan think she is?
