Zhao Fangrui and Cheng Fugui looked at their three little grandchildren and sighed in unison, feeling a strange sense of powerlessness. These kids were now developing a brotherly bond. "One, two, three, do you really like this little brother?"
"I like it very much." Peng Yitiao said without hesitation.
Peng Ertiao also said "I like it".
"Happy~" Peng San Tiao's voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of tune.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I have a plan. Look, I've raised one or several of them well, haven't they? Raising six doesn't take much effort. The child is well behaved, as long as he has food and drink. On weekdays, I can free up my hands to do a lot of things by taking one or several of them out to play..."
"Okay, don't say anything first. Let your mother and I take it slow, slow down!" Cheng Fugui stroked his beard and looked at the four lively and arrogant boys. He then glared at his second daughter who was too opinionated and acted without authorization.
My daughter was determined and registered someone else's child in the household registration without even saying anything. Now even if they want to move out, it's difficult for them to do so...
Zhao Fangrui rubbed her head for a long time. "You can't just say it's everything. You said there were 600 last time, but you might have been lying to us. First, take out the 1,200 yuan and show it to us."
I used to think my daughter and son were honest and wouldn't try to trick them with these things. Now I don't think that's necessarily the case. I need to be more careful...
"Your mother is right. It's not possible that if you say there is twelve thousand, then there will be twelve thousand." Cheng Fugui agreed.
1200 is not a small amount of money. His daughter is now easy to come by, everything is said with ease, whether there is 1200 or not is another matter.
Cheng Zhenzhu nodded and stuffed the six pieces into Zhao Fangrui's hands. "Okay, I'll get them."
She couldn't come up with 1,800 for the time being, but 1,200 was definitely within her reach.
Zhao Fangrui's heart softened as she looked at the cute baby tucked into her arms, with eyes wide open and a curious look on her face.
Having no parents is indeed pitiful...
"You can't eat your fists." Zhao Fangrui held the six small fists that were about to be stuffed into her mouth, and unconsciously softened her voice.
"Mom~" Six fingers pointed like pearls, and then reached out to the one next to him for a hug.
"Come and hug grandpa." Cheng Fugui looked at the little kid who was not crying or making a fuss, with his eyes as big as copper bells, and wanted to tease him.
"Guoguo~" Six hands clasped together, and looked at one of them for help.
"This is grandpa." Yitiao introduced Liutiao.
"Ao yeah~" Liu Tiao blinked, shook his eyes and spit out two words.
Is he calling him? Cheng Fugui was surprised. This kid is quite smart! "Call him again and see?"
"Pa~" Liu Tiao bit his mouth and slapped Cheng Fugui on the face that was close to him.
Cheng Fugui, who was slapped in the face, was not angry but happy, "Hey! This kid looks like Hu Zi when he was little. When he grows up, I might pull his beard..."
One child felt strange to see his grandfather happy, but he didn't take it to heart and taught the other six children to call him "Grandma".
But Liu Tiao refused to do it. He stepped on his feet and started to moan and drool.
"Why isn't Liu Tiao wearing a hat?" Zhao Fangrui didn't care much and just touched Liu Tiao's bald little head.
When I was making tiger-head hats for my grandchildren, I thought I couldn't be partial, so I made one for this little kid as well. Why is there a little bald head here now?
"Liu Tiao likes to pull it off and play with it. He pulled out all the tiger's whiskers and liked to throw them everywhere. Then my mother stopped letting him wear it." Peng Ertiao told his grandparents everything he knew.
The younger brother spoke too quickly and Peng Yitiao couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.
Peng San Tiao also had something to say. "Stubborn, brain-scratching, San Tiao's."
San Tiao stretched out a finger and pointed at the right ear of his hat, and his little baby voice sounded aggrieved.
Humph! The bad guy Liu Tiao scratched his tiger ears this morning.
"Let me see if I can sew it back together." Zhao Fangrui picked up her aggrieved little grandson and checked the hat. "It's okay. I'll sew a couple of stitches on it later. It'll be as good as new."
"Crab Crab Brain~" After getting the three correct answers, a sweet smile appeared on the little face.
Zhao Fangrui smiled and rubbed her little grandson. Oh, I love listening to San Tiao talk. His milky voice makes my heart melt...
"This bad boy is quite naughty!" Cheng Fugui looked at the little kid with rolling eyes and picked him up and tossed him around. "How could he damage your brother's hat?"
"Oh oh~" Liu Tiao was thrown up, grinning and drooling, and his voice was filled with excitement.
"Yes, he is a brave man." Cheng Fugui nodded with satisfaction.
"Mom and Dad, can you take a look?" Cheng Zhenzhu saw her parents interacting warmly with Liu Tiao, and she searched several places before finding the money.
Zhao Fangrui took the paper package. It felt thick to the touch. Then she looked inside and saw that it was filled with neatly arranged, unbroken corners. She had a rough idea of what was going on.
Her daughter didn't hide this from her.
Cheng Fugui and Zhao Fangrui exchanged a glance. Alas, things had already come to this; they couldn't just send the kid away again. He looked so clever and adorable. If they took good care of him, he might become a college student someday...
"Forget it. Keep the money. I saw you looking for it everywhere. Don't put it anywhere else. You might not be able to find it later." Cheng Fugui sighed, and spoke in a serious tone.
"Pearl, raising a child is not an easy task. Since you've decided to raise one, then take good care of it. We actually know a little bit about why you wanted to go to the countryside. Your mother and I are the ones who let you down."
"Dad, Mom, that's not right. You gave birth to me and raised me, and you've never done anything wrong to me. I was young before, so I always had some reservations. Now that I'm a mother, I understand how difficult it was."
Cheng Zhenzhu was not good at being sentimental, so she continued talking about the child, "Don't worry, I will take good care of the child!"
Zhao Fangrui held her second daughter's hand and looked at her closely. "Zhenzhu, you've grown up now and are a child with plans. Since you said you want to raise her, then let's do it. Mom, I support you."
"Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mom." Her mother expressed her support, indicating that the matter of Liu Tiao was almost over.
Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the two elders and felt a bit lucky. Dad was a good dad, and Mom was a good mom too. "...Dad, Mom, you must have had a hard time riding this car. Why don't you go get some sleep first?"
"No, I don't need to sleep that much when I get old. I'll take the kids out for a walk later." Cheng Fugui pinched the six in his arms.
"Ahhh~" Liu Tiao pushed his new grandfather's hand away.
"I've had enough sleep. I asked your brother and the others to bring some things this time. We'll sort them out later..." Zhao Fangrui calmed herself down, got up and opened the door.
Outside the room, Cheng Zhenbao and Cheng Zhenyu's families, who had visited the living room, kitchen, and woodshed, had different expressions when they saw several people coming out.
Their father was holding the little kid in his arms, grinning happily, looking worthless...
"Mom, elder sister, are we still going to raise this little kid?" Cheng Zhenyu asked.
"Of course. Since I've raised him, I have to see him through to the end." Cheng Fugui said with a righteous look on his face.
