The Wolf Child Returns in the Sixties

Coming soon: The Newly Rich Mom's Daily Life Raising a Child and Gossiping [1990s], Gossiping in the Pediatrics Department in the 1970s

The unloved "little monster" Lin Keding transmigrates into the Jiyasaiyin family in the 1960s.

This family is different from others: they especially adore girls. There are more than a dozen children in the youngest generation, and they dote on the original host, who has an intellectual disability. After she was carried off by a wolf at the age of two, the family, once among the wealthiest in the banner, spent so much searching for her that now they can barely afford to eat.

Lately, everyone in the pastoral region has been talking about how the wolf child returned on her own just as Jiyasaiyin was critically ill. The five-year-old girl is soft and plump, like a little snowball, and can drag a fat argali with her bare hands.

No wonder she's descended from the prairie strongman. She'll surely become the best hunter in the banner, just like her E’muge (grandmother).

Jiyasaiyin: Their little Dingdang is so adorable. You want her to do rough work like hunting???

Jiyasaiyin, still hale and hearty in old age, brings down a white fox. Smiling, she strokes Lin Keding's head. "Once the fox-fur hat is ready, my darling's little head will stay warm all winter."

At his first hunting expedition, her underage brother wins a triumphant victory and comes back with a pair of Mongolian felt boots, stuffed with Lin Keding's favorite guandong candy.

The brothers' yurt has only two old felt blankets, while all the good things go to Lin Keding's yurt: copper basins, aluminum kettles, wall hangings, and carpets. It's cozy and well furnished.

It's not just her family that dotes on her. Even the wolves have her in mind. When the white-haired monsters attack and wolves raid the herds, every household suffers heavy losses except the Jiyasaiyin family, whose livestock the wolves leave alone. They even bring Lin Keding argali meat.

Everyone at the border garrison knows the Jian family has a little menace, Jian Wensheng. He was incorrigibly mischievous from the time he was small, and even after joining the army, he was unquestionably the most insubordinate troublemaker.

Of course, there's no denying his ability. He became a regiment commander at a young age, and now that he's nearing thirty, he still acts as carelessly as ever. His superiors have ordered him to settle down and get married immediately.

Jian Wensheng brings home a little girl, pale and sweet-looking, who seems very well behaved.

The entire military family compound shakes its head. "Is this the wolf child the organization arranged for him? She's clearly a little lamb. How could she possibly rein in that unruly monkey? Won't he make her cry every day?"

But then Jian Wensheng takes Lin Keding horseback riding, and when she tells him to go west, he doesn't dare go east. When she wants milk skin, Jian Wensheng milks the sheep himself and makes it for her. After the baby is born, the troublemaker Jian Wensheng fights to be the one to wash the diapers, crying as he does.

PS: The heroine is the original host.

The setting is fictional, and the golden finger is exactly as described in the blurb: extremely powerful.

A cozy slice-of-life story, lighthearted and funny.

Family bonds come first, romance comes later.

Coming soon: The Newly Rich Mom's Daily Life Raising a Child and Gossiping [1990s]

Everyone says Lin Shinian was born lucky. When her mother was pregnant with her, her cheating scumbag of a father got caught in the act, and her mother divorced him and received 100,000 yuan.

100,000 yuan!!! In the early 1990s, that was no small sum.

On the day she was born, the long-awaited demolition was finally confirmed after five years. The whole village became newly rich, and her mother ranked among the top three, reportedly receiving tens of millions in compensation alone.

Once the news spread, her scumbag father and his family shamelessly begged for forgiveness. Her mother didn't waste a word on them. She rolled up her sleeves and slapped every one of them.

Everyone: Why would you provoke her? Lin Zijun was doted on growing up, and it made her fiery and sharp-tongued. Before she married, she was unbeatable in the whole village, especially with Uncle Lin the village constable backing her up.

*

After getting rich, Lin Zijun takes her child shopping every day, buying whatever she likes. Then she gets beauty treatments and enjoys afternoon tea. Her life is wonderful, and she turns down every potential suitor.

She has a daughter and plenty of money. Why would she need a man? Instead of wasting time on that, she'd rather join her father, the village constable, and hear all the juicy gossip from every household in the village.

Uncle Lin: Girl, listen. You missed it yesterday when you went to collect rent. Your second uncle and second aunt got into a fight. That shameless mistress showed up with a big belly, at least six months along. She made your second aunt so angry she fainted three times. Her philtrum was pinched swollen before she came around, then she chased your second uncle with a cleaver...

Lin Zijun: ! Wait, didn't Second Uncle celebrate his sixtieth birthday last year? The old man sure knows how to play around, getting his mistress pregnant.

Uncle Lin: You've met that mistress before. She used to date your second uncle's eldest son.

Lin Zijun: ? Keeping it in the family, huh?

Uncle Lin loved a bit of excitement even when he was young. He pushed and shoved his way into the police station, and after getting married and having a child, he rode around on a black bicycle with his daughter on the back, busier than the women's director. After the village was demolished, he switched to a motorcycle. He'd arrive at the scene, and his daughter would show up right after him in her little car...

Wherever there was excitement, father and daughter were sure to be there. Three years later, Lin Zijun got out of her car and took a child's tricycle from the trunk. Little Shinian climbed on, pushed off hard, and rang the cheerful little bell as she made her way unobstructed to her maternal grandfather.

She stopped, swept the unruly hair off her face, and revealed a tiny, exquisitely pretty face. Her eyes sparkled as she asked eagerly, "Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa! If the baby isn't Second Grandpa's, then whose is it?"

[The heroine has no lofty ambitions and no career drive. After buying houses all over the country, she lies flat, living off rent, with more money than she can spend, more gossip than she can hear, and a child to raise.]

Coming soon 2: Gossiping in the Pediatrics Department in the 1970s. Please add it to your reading list.

Qin Miaomiao is a tuxedo cat even more neurotic than a husky. Spoiled by her owner since kittenhood, she unexpectedly becomes a human baby in the 1970s. Her first major crisis as a cat: she catches a fish, only to be told she can't eat it raw.

Qin Miaomiao is so upset that she decides to ask her dad to start a fire for her. In his previous life, her father was a mighty general, admired and feared by everyone. He's the same way now, except he seems to have been demoted, because everyone calls him "Chief."

A dog doesn't shun a poor home, and neither does a cat.

*

"Hello, my dad is lost. Could you help me find him, miss?" The little girl's voice is sweeter than cotton candy.

"What's your dad's name, little girl?" The doctor at the outpatient clinic turns around. A tiny topknot peeks around the doorway, followed by a little fair, plump face, with rosy lips and pearly teeth, like a chubby child in a New Year picture.

The chubby little girl blinks her grape-like eyes. "Qin Xu."

The doctor: "!?" Chief Qin transferred from frontline military medicine to the military dependents' hospital pediatrics department two years ago. His skills are undeniably superb, and he's received a banner praising him as "a living Hua Tuo." But he's so stern that he scares his young patients into bawling. After it happens a few times, parents threaten misbehaving kids with Chief Qin, and it works every time.

But Chief Qin isn't married. Where did he get a daughter?

*

Qin Miaomiao finally finds her dad, but he doesn't recognize her. Brave little kitty, afraid of no hardship, Qin Miaomiao climbs up onto the desk with great effort, flops down in front of her dad, and grabs his hand, placing it on her round little tummy. Go on, rub it.

The soft, warm feeling is like cotton candy melting against his fingertips.

Qin Xu withdraws his hand expressionlessly and tugs down her shirt, which had ridden up. "Take her to the police station first."

Three days later, Qin Miaomiao returns to the pediatrics department, head held high, with a paternity test in her arms.

The parents in the compound all shake their heads. "Little Miaomiao is such a good child. It's so pitiful that she got stuck with a devil of a father."

But the children in the compound all envy Qin Miaomiao. She has endless snacks, pretty dresses, a radio, and a television...and even when she gets into trouble, she doesn't get hit.

What they envy most is that Qin Miaomiao knows every kid's little secret: the leader of the kids likes playing with his own little thing, the chubby boy barks like a dog whenever he gets a shot, and Xiaohua once ate cow dung as a folk remedy for a fever...

The only thing missing is that Qin Miaomiao has no mother.

Until one day, the Qin home fills with the mouthwatering smell of meat, and a gentle voice calls, "Miaomiao, would you like to go bring lunch to Daddy with Mommy?"
