Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1256: Chapter 1257: Returning Home in Glory

The person standing outside the door is none other than Sister-in-law Zhou from Commander Zhou’s family, who used to live in the compound, but Cheng Su almost didn’t recognize her.

Her round face was glowing, with fashionable curled hair, wearing a black-and-red outfit, black leather shoes on her feet, and even holding a black leather bag on her elbow, looking every bit like a wealthy lady.

At her feet were several big and small gift bags.

"Sister-in-law Zhou, you’ve returned? Oh my, I almost didn’t recognize you! Come in, come in!" Cheng Su quickly made way.

Sister-in-law Zhou brought the gifts in, saying, "I’ve gained over twenty pounds, you definitely wouldn’t recognize me, almost like a pig now."

"This isn’t just weight gain, it’s opulence, and with your rosy complexion, it’s clear you’re living well." Cheng Su invited her to sit down, quickly went to pour tea and such.

You can tell how well someone’s life is going by looking at their face. See Sister-in-law Zhou, with her face like a full moon, rosy and lively, you can tell she’s living smoothly and happily.

"Have some tea." Cheng Su glanced at the doorway again and asked, "Did you come back alone? What about Commander Zhou?"

"He returned too, was with me just now, but met the Zhong family downstairs and started chatting, probably drinking tea there, he’ll be up soon!" Sister-in-law Zhou said with a smile, and pushed the gifts on the table, saying, "It’s nothing much, don’t mind them."

"You’re back, just come and sit at our place, why buy gifts?" Cheng Su teased, "When did you get back?"

"Just got in last night, it was late so we didn’t come by to disturb." Sister-in-law Zhou replied.

Cheng Su was about to speak when a cough came from the door, she glanced over and quickly stood up to welcome, "Commander Zhou!"

"Just you at home, huh?" Old Zhou laughed heartily, striding in with a big beer belly, holding a big brick-like phone, a gold watch on his wrist, and hair slicked back, looking every inch like a nouveau riche big boss.

"You two have changed so much!" Cheng Su handed over tea, seeing Old Zhou place the big brick phone on the table, feeling a rush of excitement, pointed at it and said, "You’ve even got a mobile phone now!"

"Wow, sister-in-law, you’re really well-informed, you know about mobile phones? They’ve just come out!" Old Zhou exclaimed, "There shouldn’t be any of these in Qing City yet!"

"Not in Qing City yet, but big cities like Guangcheng have them." Cheng Su chuckled softly, "Seems like you’re doing well, all transformed, looking like affluent folks!"

Old Zhou laughed heartily, "All thanks to you. Back then, following your suggestion, went to the Special Zone for these years, finally made something of ourselves, can return with dignity now to face the old land and folks!"

Cheng Su teased with a smile, "You can’t say that, we’re all comrades, if we couldn’t make something of ourselves, would we never meet again? Real comrades wouldn’t care if you’ve made it or not? Have some tea."

"But it’s also thanks to you, listening to your advice, went there to start in electronics, finally have a bit of foundation now, just opened a company, my son is helping to manage it, only now have some time to visit you." Sister-in-law Zhou said with a smile.

"Congratulations to you, it’s a true homecoming in splendor!" Cheng Su said with a warm smile.

The couple modestly said a few words, Old Zhou glanced again, "Where’s Old Qi from your family? He’s still not back?"

Cheng Su then showed a wry smile, "You came at a bad time, just received a call from him saying he’s rushing out for a task, no idea when he’ll be back! Are you staying a while?"
