Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 950: Misunderstanding

Since they had already recognized each other over the phone, and didn’t want to attract attention, the three of them restrained their emotions.

It wasn’t until Granny Zhang calmed down that she remembered the two elders of the Gu family: "Oh no, Shanzi, Gu family, oh, your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

Granny Zhang sheepishly looked at her son, almost saying the wrong thing.

Only then did Zhang Yueshan look around; not seeing anyone in the yard, he became anxious and rushed to the gate.

He saw Xinyan with the two elders sitting under the big locust tree.

Granny Zhang, who had followed them out, wiped the tears from her eyes and quickly signaled to her son.

Zhang Yueshan walked briskly over, picking up their luggage: "Dad, Mom, let’s go home."

The crowd watching was puzzled: "Shanzi, who are these two?"

Zhang Yueshan explained: "These are my late wife’s parents, they’ve come with me to visit my mother."

Granny Zhang came at the right time, deliberately asking: "What’s going on here?"

Zhang Yueshan glanced at his mother: "Mom, let’s go home first and talk things over."

Granny Zhang clapped her thigh: "Right, right, right, look at me."

She stepped forward and took the hand of Old Madam Gu, Tao Shuqing: "Sorry about that, I didn’t know you were coming along, come on, let’s go home."

Xinyan didn’t expect Granny Zhang to react so quickly, smiling as she followed the crowd back to the yard.

Granny Zhang told everyone that they were expecting guests at home and asked them to disperse.

The people watching saw that it was getting late, and knowing they must have things to discuss, they began to leave.

Meanwhile, in Beijing.

Gu Wanqing was staying by the phone, nearly staring a hole into it.

The phone finally began to ring; she quickly picked it up: "Hello, how did it go?"

On the other end, Han Jingchen reassured her: "Everything’s fine, I’ll be back once I’m finished."

Gu Wanqing felt relieved at these words, understanding that her parents must have arrived safely.

Just to be safe, when the young lady left, they had instructed not to call directly home.

There were too many eyes watching, after all.

Gu Wanqing kept pacing in the yard, occasionally glancing towards the gate.

Sister Chen walked over worriedly: "Wanqing, why don’t you wait inside? You’ve been standing outside for quite a while."

Gu Wanqing knew her health, softly replied with an ’mm,’ and was helped back into the house by Sister Chen.

She hadn’t sat down for long when the phone rang again; she assumed it was Han Jingchen calling: "Hello, are you not done yet?"

But instead, Su Aihong, her elder sister-in-law, was on the other end: "Wanqing, it’s me."

Upon hearing it was her sister-in-law, Gu Wanqing said: "Sorry, I thought it was Jingchen calling."

Su Aihong teased: "Your relationship is something else."

Gu Wanqing knew her sister-in-law misunderstood but chose not to explain, hastily changing the subject: "Sister-in-law, did you call for something?"

Only then did Su Aihong laugh: "Look at me, I almost forgot the main thing; I’m planning to introduce a girl to Chaohui. We agreed she’d come over this Sunday. Do you have time to drop by, meet her, and help us get a good look?"

Gu Wanqing knew her sister-in-law was being sincere, so she readily agreed: "Sure, we’ll come over then."

They chatted a bit more before hanging up the phone.

At that moment, the sound of a car parking came from outside the gate; Gu Wanqing, ignoring everything else, got up and went outside to greet him: "Jingchen, you’re back?"
