Holding a Space in the 60s: A Nest of Seven Babies, Five Soldiers

Zhang Siyu was involved in a car accident. When she opened her eyes again, she was in a small fishing village in the 1960s, as Cheng Zhenzhu, a widow single-handedly raising three children.

Chapter 281: Something Reliable

Oh my! His daughter has made it big! Cheng Zhenbao stopped eating and put down his bowl and chopsticks to come over and take a look. "Come, daughter, let daddy hold you. Say something to daddy, please."

"Pah~"

A crisp little slap landed on Cheng Zhenbao's face. Xiaolu slapped her father away and eagerly reached out to Cheng Zhenzhu who was walking over. "Fufu~ Love you, my dear~ Take care of you~"

Hehe! Cheng Zhenbao covered his face, which had been hit by his daughter, and laughed foolishly. His daughter actually gave him such a loud slap? Her little hand was quite strong, not bad! She was worthy of being his daughter!

"Our little fawn wants to go too?" Cheng Zhenzhu squatted down, tapped the cute little ball, and asked.

"Oh, take care of the cub~" The little deer seemed to understand and nodded twice, his eyes brighter than when he was eating.

Haha, I can’t bear to take such a cute baby with me. “Take him with you! Let’s go play with auntie!”

"Second sister, this is not easy to take care of, right?" Wang Xiaomei looked at the pile of young soldiers behind her second aunt, then looked at the tiny girl in her arms, and said hesitantly.

"It's okay. Little Tiger and the others can play by themselves, and I'll hold the little deer to play." Cheng Zhenzhu held the eager little deer in her arms, and with her other hand, she picked up the food box and said, "Mom, Xiaomei, don't worry, we will be back soon..."

"Oh." Cheng Zhenbao nodded unhappily. Damn it, here comes another one to steal his daughter!

The whole litter of pups left, and the house quickly became quiet. Wang Xiaomei sighed, "It seems my second sister really likes children."

"Isn't it? You're so happy to have two more children. I wonder what your eldest sister will say when she sees it..." Zhao Fangrui was worried. It would be fine if the eldest daughter knew about it, but I wonder what Fugui's reaction would be?

What can I say? Of course I just blurt it out.

".......Big sister, I'm not saying anything harsh on you! Why do you like picking up other people's kids to raise? One six-cat is fine, but here come two more! You said you're not a garbage collector or waste collector, so how can you pick up so many and bring them into the house? You have to know that once you bring these in, you can't take them out anymore..." Cheng Zhenyu took two bites of rice and drank two sips of fish maw soup, with a look of disapproval on her face.

Cheng Zhenzhu pursed her lips. Luckily, the dolls were all playing in the yard. She was the only one inside, holding the little deer, talking. While she knew her older sister had good intentions, comparing the dolls to trash and waste was a bit too much...

"Look, going to school, eating, which one doesn't require trouble? You have to get him a wife in the future. After he gets married, maybe he will just throw his eldest grandson in front of you, and he won't take anything in return. He will just say, 'Mom, please take care of him for me'... Let me calculate for you. If there are two children in a litter, then these six litters will have 12 children in total!" Cheng Zhenyu chattered incessantly. Suddenly, she shivered and felt a little cold. She quickly pulled the quilt.

Oh, she was trembling just thinking about it. Luckily, her family only had one son, and daughters would be married off, so maybe he could help out their brother in the future...

"It's not my business if they get married. I'll just live my own life..."

Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the surprised look from her elder sister Cheng Zhenyu, and smiled with a relaxed brow.

She's always been a Buddhist, so occasionally she'd have those whims of "picking chrysanthemums by the eastern hedge, leisurely wandering the southern mountains." She'd already made up her mind: once her children were independent, she'd let them fly freely. As for her, she'd stay on Sanshi Island, rent a mountain, get two boats, enjoy the scenery, and seriously take care of herself in her old age.

"Big sister? So you mean you're just going to leave them alone and go find an old man to have fun with?"

"Sister, can we talk about something more reliable..." What on earth was this? When did she ever say she wanted to find an old man? Cheng Zhenzhu's forehead was full of black lines. Her sister was really imaginative.

"Okay, let's talk about something reliable. When Dad comes home tonight and finds out you've adopted two more kids, will he punish you?" Cheng Zhenyu gloated. With her dad's hot temper, if he knew his daughter had adopted two more kids, he'd be furious!

Cheng Zhenzhu: ...This is reliable, but it has become scary.

There is an even scarier thing, the baby woke up and cried so hard. It is really hard to know where to start with such a small baby.

"Wuuuuuu~" The baby in the corner of the bed was squeezing out tears, and he didn't know where to put his little hands and feet.

"Oh, don't cry, little lion, Mommy's here..." Cheng Zhenyu put down the bowl, a bit flustered as she held her precious son. Why again? Not only did he need milk, but he also had a bowel movement. Her older sister was already holding another child, so it wasn't convenient for her to help her clean up the poop or anything like that.

Cheng Zhenyu resigned herself to wiping the poop. As she did so, her precious son pooped, leaving her nearly throwing him aside. But he was her precious son; she couldn't abandon him. Sigh, she was practically dying of frustration. Even though she had three children, she had very little experience raising them. She was so afraid of accidentally breaking this soft, squishy thing in her arms...

"Slurp, slurp~" The wrinkled baby stopped crying after drinking milk, but started farting while drinking milk, making Cheng Zhenyu lose the mood to eat. If this continues, she will be bald sooner or later!

"Little lion, little lion, can you please not poop while eating? I can't even eat properly..." Cheng Zhenyu said helplessly. It wasn't that smelly, but the yellow shit was really unappetizing after looking at it for a long time.

The sound of a baby sucking milk responded to her.

Cheng Zhenzhu sat by the bed, holding the little deer and watching, occasionally handing her older sister a piece of toilet paper or a diaper. "Big sister, the baby's nickname is Little Lion, what's his real name?"

"I haven't chosen one yet. I'll tell you when I register my household registration. Isn't this a good nickname?" Cheng Zhenyu said, quite proudly. If the tiger is the king of beasts, the lion isn't bad either. She thinks it's even more powerful than the tiger...

Cheng Zhenzhu almost gave a thumbs-up when she heard this. As expected of her elder sister, she was the best at naming. No wonder Xiaomei was a little unhappy when she mentioned her elder sister.

"yue~" The little deer in Cheng Zhenzhu's arms suddenly pinched her nose in disgust, and then pushed her head hard into her second aunt's arms.

What a sensitive little fellow! Cheng Zhenzhu noticed that the little baby was about to burst into tears, so she quickly hugged the fawn and took her to sit a little further away.

"Hey, you kid still dislike your brother?" Cheng Zhenyu saw her little niece's reaction and pinched her chubby face with her hand that had just wiped the shit.

Hmm. Sure enough, he looks better when he's fatter, with pinker flesh. Unlike her three daughters, who looked like shriveled ducks, skinny and yellow, just like their father. Ugly!

"Wow~" The little deer saw her aunt's hand, which had touched her butt, come to touch her face again. Her pink little mouth pouted and tears began to well up in her eyes. "Fufu~ Woo~"

"Aunt, are you bullying my sister again?" Little Tiger heard the crying and immediately came in with his fists clenched.
