The Hapless Foster Father Wins Over a Widowed Husband by Raising Ducks

Thank you, my loves, for adding this to your collections. This book is no longer on the monthly rankings or the Eight Immortals list, so updates are temporarily suspended.

Lin Tianze transmigrates into a story about fleeing famine and raising children, becoming the adoptive father of several ungrateful brats. He looks at the little ones in front of him.

The eldest stole the family's millet to buy pretty clothes.

The second is scheming to sell his younger siblings for meat.

The third works tirelessly in the fields alongside the original owner. Well, he's the little brother the second one wants to sell.

The fourth is a hopeless romantic, already planning to elope with a man at such a young age.

Lin Tianze's face is blank. He's even a little hungry. What kind of hellish start is this?

Lin Tianze remembers that a locust plague will come in a few years. The original owner's husband was so hungry that he lost all his children, and the original owner even sold him off for a few liters of sorghum...

...No one's making it out alive. Lin Tianze decides to lie flat, until he sees the animal-raising System he's bound to. What? Cheap, delicious things like chicken and duck eggs don't exist in this world?

Looking at the tasks issued by the System: raise chickens, ducks, and geese!

What do chicks eat? Lin Tianze trades a single egg for several pounds of bugs.

He also gives the whole village ducklings for free. During the famine, the villagers stare at the locusts with green eyes: all that food for their ducks!

Raise geese, and the village no longer has to fear bad people. The Goose Defense Squad is just what you need. They'll pinch you without a second thought.

Once the hens start laying eggs, Lin Tianze sells them to a restaurant and only then learns that people here do eat eggs, but only wealthy people can afford wild hen eggs. Looking at the round eggs, they really have become golden eggs.

Lin Tianze makes a fortune selling eggs, but has no plans to move to the city. Instead, he thinks the widower next door is both pitiful and adorable. Holding a warm duck egg, Lin Tianze says, "Zhao, let me steam you a duck egg to help you build up your strength."

Zhao is the Zhou family's child bride. Sadly, her husband died before they could consummate the marriage. Every day, she is tormented by her in-laws, going to bed later than a dog and getting up earlier than a chicken, all while being beaten and cursed at, until the man next door reaches out to her with his demonic claws? No, with a helping hand.

After Zhao's cheeks have filled out, he touches his belly and wonders, could he be pregnant?

Lin Tianze holds a chicken-egg pancake: You're simply getting fat.
