At the beginning, he took his seven younger siblings to join Yi Zhonghai.

Fengzeyuan is located on Zhushikou Street.

It's not close to Nanluoguxiang, so everyone had to take a bus there.

"Brother, are these all your children? You're so lucky! This whole family, big and small, would be too big for your whole family if my bus were small."

The ticket seller smiled and said as they saw them board the bus.

She wasn't surprised at all.

She had seen even larger family trips before.

I just felt a little envious seeing such a large family.

"Haha, thank you for your kind words. They are all my younger brother and sister-in-law. This is my niece. She takes up half of your bus seat."

Looking at the large group behind him, Yi Zhonghai exuded an air of pride no matter where he went.

"Look at my eyes, your younger siblings are a blessing. If your whole family could fill all the seats in this car, I would be even happier for you."

The ticket seller immediately changed the subject.

"Haha, thank you for your kind words. In a few years, this GAZ might not be enough for our family. We'll need an American Dodge."

Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed to hear this, and his words were filled with pride; he loved hearing this.

"Hey, sir, that thing only has seventy seats. With your setup, it'll be enough for you."

"If a boy gets a wife and a girl gets married, that doubles the number. If a family has several more children, even the Great Dao Qi will be overloaded."

The driver chuckled and struck up a conversation.

"Thank you for your kind words. Driver and ticket seller, please leave your addresses. I'll invite you to their wedding and baby shower when they get married or have a baby."

"I am Yi Zhonghai from the No. 1 Fitter Workshop of the Third Steel Rolling Mill. My home is in Nanluoguxiang. Come and visit me when you have time."

Yi Zhonghai was so flattered that he lost his bearings and stopped looking for a seat, instead standing there chatting with them.

Yi Zhongding watched as his elder brother and sister-in-law smiled happily.

For some reason, I recalled a news story from a later era.

An old woman takes care of her three sons' children every day, and all six of them are grandchildren.

His daily catchphrase is: Why am I not dead yet!

Yi Zhongding suddenly thought about what it would be like if each of them really had several children.

What will the eldest brother and sister-in-law feel then?

The car is almost at the next stop.

"elder brother."

Yi Zhongmin suddenly nudged Zhong Ren's arm carefully.

"hold head high."

Yi Zhongren replied lazily.

"I did the math. If there are seventy people, even if we all get married, there will only be eighteen people in the family. We'll have to have another fifty-two people."

Yi Zhongmin counted on his fingers as he spoke.

Why are you calculating this?

Yi Zhongren looked at him as if he were an idiot.

Others were just saying it, but you actually took it seriously?

"Even if we calculate it, if it's divided among the eight of us, that means we'd have to have an average of 6.5 children. Six is ​​manageable, but what about the other half?"

Yi Zhongmin didn't notice his gaze and remained immersed in his own world.

"Brother is amazing, he can give birth to the other half for us."

Yi Zhongyan stood up from the seat behind them, leaned between his two older brothers, and said loudly.

"Brother is right. You're the most clever one, Little Eight. How come I didn't think of that?"

Yi Zhongmin felt as if his skull had been opened instantly, and a flood of wisdom rushed into his mind.

"Then we can have six. If you can have two at a time like us, it'll only take three times."

Yi Zhongren nodded as if he understood, and even pointed to Zhongmin and himself with an air of seriousness.

The illustration suggests that having three sets of twins would solve the allocated "quota".

"How many times will the older brother have to give birth?"

Yi Zhongxin seemed to have his interest piqued as well, and he ran up to his two older brothers and asked them curiously.

He and Yi Zhongyan are only five years old this year (by Chinese reckoning).

So they haven't even sent him to kindergarten yet.

But she has already learned addition and subtraction within ten with her older siblings at home.

But this is obviously complicated.

He didn't understand what 0.5 meant.

"0.5 plus 0.5 equals one. There are eight of us, so there are four 0.5s, which adds up to two. My brother still has to have six more children, so that's eight. If he has two children at a time, that's four times."

Yi Zhongmin counted on his fingers, one by one.

He actually figured it out.

You know, it's like this kid's brain isn't focused on studying.

Yi Zhongren and Yi Zhongmin, born in 1949, are now seven years old.

I started first grade last September.

She will be starting second grade this September.

Yi Zhongding felt that his love for Zhongmin would only last until the third grade at most.

That's the most I can have.

He was afraid he'd die of anger if he said any more.

He can figure out 7+9.

Even if he didn't understand 9+7.

This is not bad.

In a little while.

He couldn't even figure out 7+9.

Regardless of whether his two older brothers or two older sisters tutored him.

They'll be furious.

But now Yi Zhongding just wants to wash him up, throw him in a pot, add some scallions, ginger, and garlic, and make claypot rice.

Why do you need to understand this so well?

......

Yi Zhongding listened from the side, feeling a throbbing pain in his temples.

Where there is a sleeping dragon, there will surely be a phoenix chick.

That's fine.

You also have Young Lin and Tomb Tiger, right?

The sisters, Yi Zhongyao and Yi Zhongmiao, covered their faces with their hands simultaneously.

They were born in 1947 and are now nine years old.

They both started first grade at the age of six.

I'll be in fourth grade this fall.

Compared to his four younger brothers.

They already know a lot.

So I just can't stand looking at these stupid younger brothers anymore.

After Zhong Min and the other two began their conversation, the noise in the car suddenly fell silent.

Everyone pricked up their ears to listen to them "settle accounts".

These people were clearly professionally trained; they were holding their breath so hard their faces were practically bleeding, but not one of them managed to laugh.

Tan Xiulian pinched her thigh hard in her seat, afraid that she would laugh out loud.

Yi Zhongding picked up the bag and used it to cover his face.

Destroy it.

world.

He thought that was the peak of his younger brothers' intelligence.

did not expect.

He underestimated the wisdom of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong and overlooked their simple, heartfelt concern for their elder brother, sister-in-law, and brother.

"Won't that tire out my older brother? How about we let my eldest brother and sister-in-law have the two babies? They're older, so they can have them in two separate births."

Yi Zhongxin glanced at his sister-in-law across the aisle and enthusiastically joined in his suggestion.

"Seventh brother, you're so silly. Wouldn't it be more tiring for an older person to give birth twice? Just let them give birth all at once, then they've completed their mission."

Yi Zhongmin waved his hand decisively and said.

"That's fine, then I'll have six, in three batches."

Yi Zhongxin nodded in agreement, patting his chest as he spoke.

The four little ones seem to have finally figured things out.

Then they quietly started playing with their toys.
