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 298: His head is shorter than mine

After letting out some steam and cooling off for a while, Qi Tiao poked his head out twice, then lay down on the bed in embarrassment, covering his red face.

This time, he really lost seven strips! He won’t eat more sweet potato strips anymore~

Cheng Zhenzhu rarely saw Qi Tiao act so childishly, and when she suddenly saw it, she was extremely happy.

"It still stinks!" Yitiao was a straightforward person who said whatever he wanted to say. He felt that even though Qitiao had farted outside, the house still stinked, and now it stinks even more...

"It's Jiu Tiao who pooped!" Liu Tiao covered his mouth, his eyes staring at the little baby in Cheng Zhenzhu's arms, full of suspicion. It must be this little kid!

"Oh~" The little baby saw Liu Tiao looking at him, shook his head twice, and showed an innocent expression like a deer, as if to say that it was not him.

Cheng Zhenzhu also felt something was stinky, and her eyes involuntarily fell on the little baby in her arms. She would know if she took off the diaper...

As soon as the diaper was slightly opened, an excited voice was heard.

"See, I told you it was Jiu Tiao, that's him, the one who farted so much!" Liu Tiao was the one who jumped up and exposed the incident. His two big eyes were so excited when they saw the "egg drop soup" on the diaper.

He said his nose couldn't be wrong!

Qi Tiao heard it, stopped covering his face, and ran over to take a look and smell it. He was sure that Jiu Tiao's fart was indeed a little smellier than his...

"Yi Tiao, go help your mother ask Grandma Wang for a basin of water so I can wipe Jiu Tiao's butt." Cheng Zhenzhu frowned when she saw that the little guy's butt was covered with red rashes and some peeling.

There's no doubt that Aunt Wang and the others are devoted to the baby, but the weather is a bit too hot, and the baby has developed a rash. Later, she'll give the baby a bath and apply some prickly heat powder.

"Mom, I'll go, I'll go!" Er Tiao raised his hand and volunteered.

"Oh my go!" San Tiao was also quite enthusiastic.

"Six more!"

"Wait eight!"

Qi Tiao no longer covered his face out of shyness and wanted to go too, so a small and impressive team, having received approval, went out in high spirits. When they came up, Liu Tiao Tiao was with Wang Dahua.

Wang Dahua came in with a basin and two diapers and said, "Big sister, how about I do it? I don't want you to stink. The baby must have eaten suddenly, and his stomach hasn't adapted yet..."

"It's okay, Auntie, let me do it." The baby wasn't crying or making a fuss at the moment, and she was able to handle it quite quickly. Cheng Zhenzhu put the diaper aside and asked for a basin of water to wipe the baby's body.

The baby was so weak and small that Cheng Zhenzhu couldn't help but be gentle with her movements, for fear of accidentally breaking the baby.

Wang Dahua was filled with emotion as she watched. The patience that Damei had for the baby was truly extraordinary. Even she, a grandmother, might not be able to match that level of patience... Wang Dahua went downstairs with the basin in hand, instructing Dali and his son to pack a couple of extra clothes and diapers for the baby.

Zhao Dali and Sun Xiaode nodded, and they were about to go do it. After packing their clothes, they got the old man's advice, took the money and receipts, and quickly used their connections to buy four bags of milk powder, three pounds of White Rabbit candy, and even the last five cans of malted milk from the supply and marketing cooperative. Furthermore, they bought some vanishing cream, clam oil, and pens and paper for the children's school, all on recommendation.

Tomorrow they're going to send Cheng's wife off, so it's okay to bring a few extra things. These things, except for the milk powder, were all bought specifically for Cheng's wife and a few...

******guest House******

Cheng Zhenzhu waited for Wang Dahua to leave before undressing the baby and applying some powder, especially to the baby's back and buttocks. The baby, perhaps feeling quite comfortable, hummed with satisfaction and even held onto his feet to make it easier for Cheng Zhenzhu to apply powder to his buttocks.

"Oh oh~" Kujo couldn't turn his body, so he tried hard to bend his feet.

"Okay, okay, all applied~" Cheng Zhenzhu put away the baby powder. He's quite smart, and doesn't seem to be that prone to crying or making a fuss. He's been playing here for a long time, and he hasn't cried at all. He's been behaving pretty well. I just wonder if he'll look for someone tonight...

San Tiao smelled the fragrant powder, his eyes sparkled, and he asked his mother if he could apply some fragrance too. Er Tiao, a beauty lover, said he wanted it too.

Cheng Zhenzhu smiled and told the little ones that it was because Jiu Tiao had red spots on his body that he had to apply the ointment. Their skin was fine, so they didn't need to apply it.

"Oh..." San Tiao nodded, then said thoughtfully, "Mom, I need to help Jiu Tiao rub the black mud and wash it to make it fragrant, and then it will get better."

It should be like this. Liu Tiao used to have itchy rashes all over his body, but after taking more baths, they became fine.

San Tiao is now very familiar with this process! Cheng Zhenzhu helped the babbling baby put his diaper back on, touched San Tiao, and praised him, "Well, our San Tiao is really smart! When we get back, we will give Jiu Tiao a nice bath!"

San Tiao was incredibly happy to receive the praise. As he walked among his brothers and sisters, he couldn't help but feel a little proud and complacent, his round head held high. Normally, San Tiao was a very low-key person, but he was going home tomorrow, so he was so happy! So, he could show off a little...

"Brother San Tiao, your head is shorter than mine." Liu Tiao compared, then touched his brother San Tiao's head and said.
