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.

"Is there something urgent?" Cheng Zhenzhu glanced at the large bags on the two people's shoulders, paused, and politely asked them to stay, "If it's not urgent, it won't be too late to go after dinner."

As soon as she recognized Dagang, she noticed the two large bags they were carrying. She wondered what they were for... Cheng Zhenzhu had a vague feeling they might be related to her, so she asked.

"Oh, Sister Cheng, you are one of us. I won't hide it from you. This time, Brother Wei and I are here to make a fortune! There is a kind of stone here, the kind that sparkles..."

Wang Dagang had nothing to hide, so he blurted out what he had just said. Thinking about his impending fortune, the smile on his face grew wider.

Wei Xingwu already knew that this brother Dagang was a straightforward person, and he also felt that the sister-in-law in front of him had no vested interests with them and might be able to help, so he let it go.

As Cheng Zhenzhu listened, she felt as if they had come prepared, specifically to dig for crystal. But how did Comrade Dagang and Comrade Wei confirm the existence of crystal mines here?

Was it because she knew there used to be a mine here and wanted to try her luck, or... no matter what, Cheng Zhenzhu acted as if she knew nothing about crystal mines.

"What are we going to do on the mountain next to our home?" Jiu Tiao had been listening carefully, and when he heard Wang Dagang say that they were going to the mountain, he immediately spoke up.

And that glowing stone they were talking about, he had it! But since his mother didn't say anything, he didn't say anything about it either...

"On Jiujo Family Mountain?" Wei Xingwu was surprised when he heard this. These mountains, forests, and the like shouldn't belong to just one person, right?

"Yeah, on our mountain!" Jiu Tiao put the melon seeds in his pocket, and his expression immediately became proud. "There are also cute little gray ones on our mountain! There are so many of them..."

After some understanding, Wei Xingwu and Wang Dagang fell silent when they knew that the mountain was contracted by Cheng Saozi in front of them.

The mountain has been contracted by Cheng's sister-in-law, so what are they doing now? Just now, they were trying to make a fortune on the mountain, but now they are really digging their toes into the ground. How embarrassing...

Huh? Why is this big jar suddenly not smiling? Is it because it doesn't like to laugh? It was laughing so loudly just now. Jiu Tiao propped up his little head, snorted, and his nose turned a little red.

"Sister Cheng, I wonder what the purpose of your contracting this mountain is?" Wei Xingwu knew that his question might be a bit presumptuous.

However, what he is doing now urgently requires funds.

Thinking about it, I thought of the crystal mine I saw here before. At that time, I was afraid of being discovered, so I just left. This time, I came here by water, but I couldn't find the place anymore.

What made him even more depressed was that the mountain was actually contracted...

"To make money," Cheng Zhenzhu said succinctly. Back then, she'd bought the forest to make money. After all, she'd been the first to seize the opportunity.

Then, a few people really like the pool on the mountain, and she is wondering whether to plan it as a private area...

Seeing the two comrades looking at her in a daze, Cheng Zhenzhu pursed her lips and smiled, then said, "If you two comrades are interested, you can go up the mountain today. If you come again in the future, you will have to pay an entrance fee."

"Tickets?" Wang Dagang was shocked. What kind of explanation was this?

"Yes, tickets. If you invest, you have to get a return." Cheng Zhenzhu didn't explain too much, just said, "When the renovation is completed, you two comrades are welcome to patronize us."

......

Then, Wang Dagang and Wei Xingwu hurriedly finished their lunch and left with mixed feelings. Fei Hei quietly went to "see them off" and then pecked Wang Dagang twice as they boarded the boat.

Bullying the little master, bullying the little master, and even eating and taking, taking, taking, taking...

"Hiss~" These two fierce blows made Wang Dagang grimace in pain. "Brother Wei, why did this bird peck me? I didn't provoke it."

"I don't know. Maybe he's holding a grudge against you?" Wei Xingwu thought for a moment as he looked at the blue sea and the mountains and forests that were getting farther and farther away.

They failed to dig up any crystal mines this time, but when Wei Xingwu looked at the money in Dagang's hands, he couldn't help but feel grateful for the generosity of Mrs. Cheng.

After hearing that they were going to collect scattered antiques, Cheng's wife gave them real money to support them...

******"Mom, mom, I heard from Jiutiao that there are guests at home today?" As soon as Ertiao and the others got home from school, they saw Jiutiao running towards them, chattering.

"Big jar, throw it to me." Jiu Tiao hadn't finished speaking when he saw his brothers running fast and chasing after him.

"Throw you? Why?" Liu Tiao immediately took a deep breath, and the next sentence was, "Where is he? I'll throw him to feed the big fish!"

"It's okay, they said sorry, I have a big belly, I forgive them." Jiu Tiao raised his little face and put his hands from top to bottom to let his sixth brother take a breath.

“Oh, then I won’t throw it to feed the big fish… Liu Tiao, who was furious for a moment, gathered his energy and loosened his iron fist.

"Yes, there is a guest. He is your Grandpa Wang's nephew, whom you have met before." Cheng Zhenzhu explained to a few people.

Because she had stayed with the two comrades for dinner, during their conversation, she suddenly recalled some of the contents of the book. In the book, there was an antique dealer who was both a teacher and a friend to Jiujo.

The man's surname seemed to be Wei.

She didn't know if this "Wei" was the same "Wei", but she was certain that Mr. Wang's nephew had no bad intentions. Although it did seem unreliable...

She was very supportive of their plan, so she invested 2,000 yuan in reserve funds. There was no reason to let family property go to waste. Sooner or later, the Chinese people would realize the importance of these things.

2,000 yuan wasn't a small sum. However, investing money meant there were always gains and losses. She considered this money a gamble. She hoped it would give her a surprise when she least expected it...

"Grandpa Wang's nephew?" Er Tiao searched his memory, and then his eyes lit up. "Oh!" he exclaimed. "Ah! I know. I saw him on the train."

San Tiao had a good memory. After hearing his mother say that he was Grandpa Wang’s nephew, he also remembered it.

"An uncle who likes to talk a bit." San Tiao commented.

Compared to the second and third lines, the memories of the sixth, seventh, and eighth lines are relatively faint. But this is not a big deal. The important thing is -

"Mom, I'm hungry!" This is what Liu Tiao said.

Nanajo: "Mom, winter vacation is almost here!"

Bajiao: "Mom, when will big brother have his holiday?"

Er Tiao: "Mom, are we going to visit grandma this year?"

"We have to wait for big brother!" Liu Tiao has a big brother in his heart, and he is always worried that big brother will be left behind in any good things, so he is always cautious. "We have to do it together!"
